"How in the hell am I supposed to cover this up!" I yelled at my bathroom mirror. School starts in 30 minutes and the left side of my face looks like it got hit by a taco truck. The bruise was darker than it was before and my face was kind of swollen on that side.

"You know what just forget it!" I yelled at myself throwing my makeup quite forcefully into its basket. I had been trying to get my stupid injuries covered up for the past hour. I quickly tied my maroon bowtie and ran down the stairs. Dad was in the kitchen getting ready for work.

"Are you excited for your first day Will?"

"I'm nervous, but i'll be fine."

"If it helps any 2 of Bruce's kids still attend the academy."

" Aren't they all older than me though?"

" I wouldn't count on it i think-" My dad was cut off by the furious knocking at the door.

"Sorry daddy i have to go that must be Jasmine." I slipped on my black flats and grabbed my messenger bag off of the coat hanger. I opened the door and Jaz almost knocked on my face.

"Willow we are going to be late!" She yelled as she pulled me out the door and soon down the sidewalk. I looked down at my watch to see the the take up bell would ring in 5 minutes. We started running. We ran in the front entrance of the school as the takeup bell rang. The halls were empty with the exception of a few students shuffling into their classes. I wished Jaz luck and i ran down the left corridor to try to find Ms. Quinzells classroom. I finally found it and I nervously walked through the door.

"Sorry i'm late Ms.Quinzell I got lost." I looked at the floor hoping no one would be quick and point out the bruise. I felt content with my excuse. I was new and all.

" That's perfectly acceptable. This is the first day back and i heard that you were also new to the academy. Please take a seat." I scanned the classroom quickly to see a familiar face and an empty seat. Damian was sitting in the back of the class. The desk beside him was empty so i quickly walked down the aisle between the desks to take my seat. I took my seat and smiled at Damian. I realized my mistake a little too late.

"Willow what happened to your face?" He asked.

"I-uh" Think of a lie. Think of a lie. "I fell down the stairs."

"On your face?"

"Yep! right on my face!" He raised an eyebrow at me and we turned our attention to the teacher.

"Since today is our first day and I forgot to print out our class syllabus you may have the class period to get to know your peers." The class lit up with smiles as the teacher spoke her sentence.

Damian turned to me. " The teacher is my 'sister' Sonya. She is actually pretty nice."

"Thats good."

"So where did you have to rush off to at the gala."

"My best friend called. She really needed me."

"I respect that. Let me see your schedule. I want to see if we have any classes together besides this one." I dug out my schedule and handed it to him.

"It looks like we have everything together. I have to say im a little surprised."

I smiled in return and a faint smile played on Damians lips. Our moment was interupted when a girl with bleach blond hair walked over and sat in Damians lap.

"Hello Damey." She said with a sickly smile. "Is this girl bothering you?" She said with a pouty face.

Damian looked really uncomfortable. Was this girl his girlfriend? Maybe he won't be uncomfortable if i leave.

"I'll just go then." I said gathering up my belongings.

"Actually Miranda you happen to be the one bothering me." I heard Damian say behind me and I stopped still looking down at my bag.

"What are talking about Damey?" She said in a fake baby voice.

"Get off!" he growled at her. She made a sound of disapproval and got off and walked away.

Something about his tone of voice. It had sounded so familiar for just a second. It was the way he growled when he lowly yelled at her. Almost like-. Nope i'm just crazy, he couldn't be him.
