that I won’t ever let them take you from me again. That’s a promise you can hold me to.” He said seriously and letting go of my hand.
“Okay, just don’t let them fire you.” I said and he smiled.I watched him leave wishing he didn’t have to go. I drifted into a light sleep for a little while.


Chapter 3: My love(s)
I sat up brushing my hair again and walking to my first class. Well, on a normal day it would be my fifth period. I was surprised to see Adrian sitting behind the teacher’s desk and smiled amused that he would be my teacher. Class was already in session so I assumed I looked like an idiot waltzing in like I did, but it was too late.
“Good morning Adrian.” I said with a smile and he raised his eyebrows.
“Excuse me Miss. Faine?” He said and I raised my eyebrows.
“Sorry I meant good evening Mr. Favian.” I said, and he nodded.
“Where have you been?” He asked me and my mouth opened hurt at his words.
“I’ve been sleeping. Sorry.” I mumbled walking to my seat as my class laughed.
“Open your book to chapter three. Oh, and don’t make this a habit.” He said coldly.
“Got it sir.” I said slamming my book on the desk, and I looked behind me to see Ciaran. He smiled at me uncertainly and I flipped him off. I glared at my book the whole class not bothering to listen to what my stupid teacher slash soon to be ex boyfriend had to say. After class I shoved my book under the desk, and wasn’t surprised to see Ciaran next to my desk.
“Allie, please tell me you’re over what happened between me and Elle.” He said and I rolled my eyes. “Especially after that kiss.” He started and I cut him off.
“That kiss meant nothing to me just like you mean nothing to me.” I said coldly watching his face fall.
“You can’t stay mad at me.” He said making me laugh.
“Oh, watch me.” I said and he glared at me. “Yeah that makes me feel friendly.” I said sarcastically, but when I looked up it was only me and Adrian in the room. My heart raced as I tried to blot out the images of me and him in my room
“Ahnallie.” He started but I turned to him glaring.
“Don’t you mean Miss Faine?” I asked him and he looked at me offended.
“Allie, you can’t believe I meant that?” He asked me and I crossed my arms.
“I just can’t believe I fell for your crap. You know it’s a real douche bag move to lead a girl on, and another thing” I started, but was cut off by Adrian’s lips on mine.
“As you were saying?” He asked me pulling away suddenly. I stood there speechless and he gave me an amused look. “You ended on me being a douche bag and how I lead girls on.” He said and I glared at him.
“We’re not done talking about this. I have lunch to get to Mr. Favian.” I said resisting the urge to let my lip curl up in disgust as I picked my stuff up. I heard the door close and he was behind me sneaking his arms around my waist.
“Ahnallie, you can’t believe I wanted to treat you that way? No one can know about us, so if you’re on time we can act more friendly. Be my pet.” He said amused and I shook his arms off of me. I was a teacher’s pet to every teacher anyway so it wouldn’t be difficult if I tried.
“I have to get to lunch.” I said with an angry sigh. “And I’ve never met a teacher who didn’t like me. We’ll talk about this later. Be warned call me Miss Faine again and I will never talk to you.” I said watching him smile. “Not joking.” I added walking into the hall.
“Oh, Ahnallie there you are.” My dad said walking over to me and I smiled.
“Hey dad, I’m just now heading out for lunch. Care to join me? I was thinking off campus would be nice. I need to stretch my legs.” I said trying to sound cheerful and he smiled.
“I’d love to, and then we can talk about your future.” He said and I smiled.
“What future?” I asked and he looked at me suspiciously. “I only mean we all know what I’m going to do.” I said innocently.
“We do?” He asked me and I raised my eyebrows.
“Isn’t it obvious that I’m going to work here? That’s always been my dream dad. Duh.” I said chuckling at him and he smiled.
“I forget.” He said and I nodded. We walked to his car, and I hopped in the front seat wondering if it was a good idea. We drove in silence and he pulled into a fast food restaurant.
“Are you okay?” He asked me and I smiled.
“I’ve been better.” I admitted shyly.
“Why?” He asked me and I furrowed my eyebrows.
“Besides having my heart crushed you mean?” I asked and he nodded. I silently added that I’d just learned my dad betrayed me, but I refrained from saying that out loud. “I just get this feeling sometimes that if I didn’t stay here everyone would be disappointed. Sometimes I think I don’t have a choice about who I can be. Like my futures already determined.” I said judging his reaction.
“Of course you have a choice.” He said cheerfully, but his eyes held a suspicious icy glare. “What else would you want to do?” He asked me and I shrugged sitting back in my seat.
“I don’t know, maybe take a year off and explore the world a little.” I said taking a bite of my burger before adding, “I don’t know how the place would survive without me though.” I watched him smile, and realized how hard it would be to remember I had to watch my words with him. He was a traitor and had lied to me my whole life.
I looked around absent mindedly and my eyes drifted across a familiar face. Then the recognition that it was Adrian hit me and I looked back at him. He was sitting with a fairly young teacher name Allison Johnson. She was a porcelain colored vampire with pink cheeks, green eyes, blonde hair, and cute dimples. I glared there way, and Adrian noticed me. He looked worried, but quickly looked back to that other woman.
“What is it Elle? You look angry all of a sudden.” He said looking over to Adrian where his gaze hardened and his face grew cold. I tried not to smile satisfied that he was scared.
“That new teacher doesn’t like me. He’s a bit of a pain honestly. His name is Mr. Favian which of course you know, but he has a problem with me I swear.” I half lied, and watched my dad fight a satisfied smile.
“Would you like me to take care of him?” He asked me, and I smiled at him.
“No, dad it’s a challenge for me. I’ve always had the teacher’s trust handed to me on a silver platter because of who I my dad is, and now I’m going have to work for it.” I said and he eyed me suspiciously.
“What would he have against my perfect angel anyways?” He said and I rolled my eyes like I was annoyed.
“It’s probably because he invited me to coffee, and I kind of ran out on him last minute to get Elle. It’s stupid as if anything would happen between me and a teacher. Please only in his dreams.” I retorted trying not to try too hard to sound uninterested.
“That’s my girl.” He said with a smile, and I smiled back.
“Well, I’m done.” I said looking at my half eaten burger and fries pleased that being an un pure vampire meant I could eat anything I want.
“Me as well.” He said and I smiled. “If you’ll excuse me I need to use the restroom, and then we’ll be off.” He said walking towards the bathroom, and I dumped my leftovers into the trash bin. I caught Adrian’s sideways glance, and felt compelled to walk over.
“Hello Allison and Adrian.” I said politely as I walked towards there table.
“Oh, hello Ahnallie. This is the star pupil of my class I was telling you about.” She said to Adrian giving him a flirty grin and I smiled resisting the urge to yell at her that he was mine.
“You’re too kind. Adrian has me in a class and we haven’t had a pleasant first impression of each other. Sadly it looks as if our relationship is in a rocky patch.” I said smiling and I noticed Adrian give me a worried glance acknowledging that he got my message.
“That’s too bad. I assure you she’s just perfect.” She said and he smiled warmly at her then turned to me.
“I know she is. I’m afraid you’ve misinterpreted things. I was merely trying to appear unbiased to everyone else. It would be wrong of me to give you special treatment.” He said and I bit my lip accepting his hidden message. I was pleased that this woman was only a cover, but that didn’t mean it wouldn’t bug me.
“Next time we go out to lunch perhaps you could join us?” She suggested and I smiled at the idea, but then I frowned knowing it meant I’d have to watch her flirt.
“I’d like to get to know you better.” Adrian said smiling politely and I plastered a smile to my face.
“Of course I would, but sadly I don’t know if it’s a good idea. My father is very protective. Oh, hi daddy.” I said noticing he was standing next to me.
“Hello Ahnallie, Mr. Favian, and Miss Johnson. May I be so bold as to ask if this is a date?” He asked and my heart clenched.
“I don’t know is it?” Allison asked blushing and Adrian half smiled as he looked at me. Then he looked at my father smiling slyly.
“Yes I suppose it is.” He said and I lifted my chin a little higher refusing to let it get to me.
“Dad now that dating is out there as a subject I’ve been meaning to ask, what are your feelings towards me dating an angel?” I asked him, and he turned to me surprised. I grinned smugly as Adrian’s eyes met mine, and he looked upset by my words. I felt bad, but at the same time I knew it was a good idea.
“If I may, I don’t know if it’d be such a good idea considering everything.” Adrian said and I glared at him.
“Well, sadly it’s not your place is it?” I snapped at him with crossed arms because I was almost excited at the possibility of finally having my hands on Aaron. It felt like it’d been ages since I talked to him. I knew I loved Adrian, but a girl can have her fun.
“I’m afraid I agree with my daughter, but thank you for the concern.Allie, if you mean Aaron then I would approve of it for now.” He said thoughtfully and I beamed at him.
“Well, we should be leaving now.” I said turning the door, and my dad said his goodbyes and walked for the door. I looked back at Adrian who was looking after me longingly. I shot him an apologetic glance as our eyes met, and he half smiled mouthing the words I love you. I mouthed I love you back to him when Allison wasn’t looking and I quickly caught up with my dad.
“That was interesting.” My dad said as
