Katherine's POV

Jasper let out a loud, satisfied groan when he took a large bite out of his ham and cheese toasty. "I haven't had one of these since last year..." Me mumbled, his mouth still full of food.

"Don't speak with your mouth full." Sebastian scolded. Sebastian was a chill, laid back guy. He didn't seem to care about much, or that was what his constant blank expression told me.

Jasper rolled his eyes and continued eating, this time, eating with his mouth closed.

"Have you guys heard of that party that James Miller is throwing next weekend?" Luna asked. Everyone turned their attention to her.

All of us except Gale shook our heads. I don't think that he was even listening to our conversation. I kicked him under the table, making him jump. "Ow!" He whisper-yelled. "What the hell!"

I raised an eyebrow at him before turning back to Luna who continued talking.

Luna was interrupted by Jasper choking on his toasty. I patted him on the back to help him cough it out. He was staring at the door.

We all turned our heads to see a dirty blonde, blue eyed girl walking through the front door. She was wearing tight, black leather pants, a red leather jacket, and white shoes.

"Shit..." Gale whispered under his breath.

"What?" I asked him, confused. I looked around to see that the whole group was staring wide eyed. The only person that looked calm was of course Sebastian.

"Thats Vivian Scott... Jaspers younger sister..." He explained, turning away from her and looking at me. "She's a really big bitch."

Jasper reached over me and punched him in the arm.

I cursed my shortness in my head before concentrating on the situation.

"What? It's the truth." He whisper-yelled to Jasper.

"What's with the all the leather?" I asked.

"She left our family to become a fucking bikie." Jasper scowled quietly.

Vivian's gaze traced the bar until it landed on us. It was then that everyone of us looked away and pretended to do eat and drink. It was too late, she had already noticed us.

She began walking towards us. "Fuck..." Jasper whispered so quietly that any normal human wouldn't be able to hear. Luckily for me, I'm not human.

"Hello brother." She grinned and leaned on the table. "And friends..." She muttered before her gaze landed on Gale. "Hey, Galey." She grinned.

"Vivian." He sighed, barely giving her a second glance.

"I missed you." She said, her tone an attempt to seduce him.

"Really?" He replied, finally looking at her, his expression blank. "I didn't."

She smelled familiar. Like someone from... Shit.

"Aw, that's too bad." She grinned and turned her head to me. "Who's your new friend?" She asked, there was a hint of jealousy in her voice when she realized how close Gale was sitting next to me. I didn't even notice how close he was.

"This is Katherine." Gale smiled as he talked. "My girlfriend."

I snapped my head to look at him so hard I could have snapped my neck. Girlfriend? Gale looked at me with hopeful eyes, begging me to play along with it.

I mentally sighed and plastered a small smile on my face. "Nice to meet you." I said.

Vivian's jaw flexed as she stared daggers at me. If I were human, it probably would have affected me. She put the fakest smile on her face. "Nice to meet you too."

I could see everyone on the table stare at us in shock. They clearly didn't see the look on Gale's face when he begged without words.

"Why are you here, Vivian...?" Jasper asked.

"What? Aren't I allowed to visit my brother and his friends at their... Wonderful... College?" Vivian asked, a mockingly shocked expression on her face.

Satan, everything about this girl is fake.

"You're here for a reason." Jasper replied. This time, he seemed to be getting angry.

Vivian just tilted her head and grinned. "Thats a reason for me to know and for you to find out."

"Do I really want to find out?" Jasper asked.

Vivian shrugged, turned around and began walking away, purposefully swaying her hips.

When she was finally out of sight, everyone snapped their heads to us in sync. Creepy... "Since when were you two together?" Luna asked first when no one would say anything.

"Since today." I lied. I felt Gale's leg bump mine, letting me know he was happy I'm playing along with it.

"That was really fast." Sebastian said, his voice still quiet and calm.

"Is that why it took you guys so long to get in here?" Jasper asked cheerfully.

Shit, I don't even know what to say...

"Yeah, I asked her to be my girlfriend." Gale answered.

"Whell that explains a lot about this morning." Zack said as he looked between the two of us.

"What happened this morning?" Elanor asked.

Zack looked at me and Gale and grinned. "We caught them in the bathroom." He teased.

"Shut up Zack." Gale said.

"Sorry." Zack smiled and held his hands up. "Not sorry..." He muttered under his breath when he lowered his hands.

**********

We were back at my dorm building, in the hallway walking towards my dorm room. Gale stuck beside me the whole walk.

Before we walked through the doors to the dorm room, I let everyone pass me and grabbed Gales bicep to stop him. I stared for a moment at his bicep, it was really hard. Satan...

"You guys coming in?" Jasper asked at the door.

"Go in without us." I replied while still keeping my eyes on Gale.

"Make good decisions kids." Jasper joked, closing the door when I looked at him.

As soon as the door closed, I snapped my head to look at Gale. I dragged him away from the door because I heard what sounded like Jasper, Zack and Luna shuffle towards the door, probably trying to eavesdrop.

Once we were far enough from any listening ears, I began glaring at Gale. "What. The fuck. Where you thinking." I pushed him lightly in the chest.

"I wanted Vivian off my back." He replied.

I lifted my hand to my forehead and sighed. "Great... Now I'm stuck fake dating a demon hunter..." I muttered.

"A sexy one too." Gale joked.

An idea sparked in my head. I looked back up at Gale. "Alright... I'll continue to do... Whatever this is... But I want something in return."

Gale raised a brow. "What do you want in return?"

"Three favors." I replied simply.

Gale thought for a moment. "I think I can agree to those terms." He said. "We have a deal." He brought his hand up to shake mine. I lifted my hand to shake his, but I stopped when I looked at the ring on his finger. Now that it was so close, I could smell the sage and rosemary on it.

He dropped his hand when he noticed. "I'm sorry..." He said. "I'll get rid of it."

"No, you need it." I said. "Especially when..." I paused.

"What?" He asked.

"Vivian." I replied. He gave me a confused look. I sighed. "Gale... She's turned..."
