3rd person POV
Eliot and Arion walk towards the huge theater/auditorium, holding hands. Catching the attention of a tall man with glasses. He looks Elliot up and down, causing king to feel like he's being watched. king slightly looks back and they lock eyes. The tall man waves as king glares but Elliot calls him and he's the first to break eye contact. The familiar man smirks and he speaks into a small microphone on his green suit.

"Oh what a sight to behold, as the cold and uncontrolled warms and can't resist the human inside that doesn't exist, oh what is amiss?"

"What the fuck did you smoke man? You just said a bunch of shit that don't make sense. All dramatic as fuck" another student replies

The tall man cringes at the stupidity that surrounds him.

Eliot pov
Damn I think I might have been underdressed because everyone is super fancy. Hello anxiety my old friend

"Hello, young master, please make your way to the throne circle. the other schools officials will be joining soon. If you need anything just call me I will be on the side guarding" Arion nods and pushes me forwards.

As we sit there's a near pile of envelopes with gold seals displaying different sports. I look to Arions side and I see 5

"What are those?"  I ask already opening one.

"These are our invites to defend our place as champions of certain sports. Let's see... I'm the 4 consecutive year champion of underground fighting, and range, which is basically shooting or throwing different weapons to hit targets, Russian roulette, gambling and lastly football, which I only have that to hide my actual events"

"Ohhh- that's so cool!!! ... wait Russian roulette as in the gun game?" I worry sometimes because of the amount of risks Arion takes. What would I do without him.

"Mhm. What's this? One of these are for you"

I get up and he pulls me onto his lap in front of everyone. I blush and grab the envelope. I wonder what it says!

"Parkour??" It's an invite to compete in the parkour games.

"The roses must have judged your skills on the field and signed you up. Good job baby" I blush even more at the praise I just earned. He pats my hair and I put my hands up to my cheeks to hide the deep red shade.

"What a cute sight to behold" a monotonous voice says from behind.

"Ingenio" arion responds with a snap.

"Don't be so defensive now. I'm just trying to make new friends here, with ..." he stares at me with a sweet smile.

"Elli-" Arion's hands grip my thigh hard and I squirm for a second before he holds my whole body in place.

"Don't talk to him" arion spits out, a warning for both me and the man in front of me. I look away and I feel the tension rise between arion and him. I notice everyone staring at me and I start to hyperventilate quietly. I tap arion and he looks down at me, his eyes turn from hateful black orbs to worried grey eyes. His eyes changed in front of me. What the hell? Is he a vampire or something? No they don't exist.

Arion hugs me tight and then let's go of my waist. I mumble my thoughts out loud trying to sort my head out as I walk over to Ariana and she greets me with a smile.

"Don't worry about that darling. They have an on going feud that will end soon. Would you like some food ordered?" I nod and sit next to her since her boyfriend hasn't arrived yet. That prick. Hope he trips in front of everyone.

I play with my sleeves and Ariana takes my hands. I look up to her and even she looks worried. Do I look that bad? I mean my eyes are watery because my head is overwhelmed by thoughts and the people staring at me do not help.
