House of Night

Chapter Two

Evan

"Oh! I'm gonna miss you Evan!" Grandma gave me one last kiss and one last hug. "I'll miss you too Grandma." I gave her a quick hug. "I have to go. I'm wasting all your precious time to be with your mentor and your roommate." "Oh no, it's fine Mrs. Fong." The teacher said, well "mentor". My grandma gave me one last hug and then started making her way back to her little blue bug. "So, I know your name is Evan. Let me introduce myself. I am Nelson. Nelson Morgan and I am your mentor. I am also the literature professor here at the House of Night." "Oh, so Mr. Morgan." "Just call me Nelson." "Oh alright, so Nelson, when do I get my schedule and my roommate and all the big, main stuff?" "After your small orientation I'll give you your schedule and then I'll give you the number of your room and you can meet your roommate." I felt really nervous and this guy seemed pretty fucking chill, but I didn't know that one hundred percent. "Is something bothering you Evan?" "Ah, actually yeah, why does it seem so dark and gloomy here?" Nelson let out a pretty weird laugh. "Oh Evan, all vampyres and fledglings are like this. Trust me you'll get used to it and it won't seem so dark and gloomy." "Oh, ok." "So Evan, are you ready to start at the House of Night." "I guess I'll be as ready as I'll ever be. Well of course after the orientation." Nelson let out another laugh as he put his arm around me and we made our way around the school. 

Jonathan

"Shit, why is there a sub for the literature teacher?" I asked Tyler. "Shit man, whatever gets me out of that essay, I'm good." Tyler said as he leaned back and got comfortable. "Okay class. Professor Nelson has a new fledgling today." The sub said. Tyler nudged me, "Hey maybe its a hot chick." He silently laughed and sat back. "And he is showing the boy around." Tyler laughed even harder. "Shit Jon I didn't know you swung that way." I punched him. "I don't." I mumbled. 

I looked at the clock. We had five minutes until the class was over. The sub just made us watch the documentary on Shakespeare and made us take notes. The door opened and Nelson walked in. He had an Asian boy with him. He had dark eyes from what I could tell and dark hair that was spiked up. He was looking around nervously. "I need to borrow someone." Nelson said. "Jonathan I need to talk to you." I stood up. The boy's eyes met mine. I swear to Goddess his cheeks turned pink. I shook it off. Why would I care? I walked over to Nelson. He guided us out into the hallway. "So, Jon, you have every class with Evan here." I looked at Evan. "Uh, hi, I'm Jonathan, you can call me Johnny." I stook out my hand. He shook it. "Hi, I'm Evan, you can call me..." He mumbled something. "You can just call me Evan." He laughed. When he laughed, it made me laugh. Once he heard my laugh he started laughing even harder, which made me laugh even harder. "Okay boys, hey, Jon do you know who your new roommate is?" I stopped laughing. "No, actually I don't. I heard he's coming tod- OH MY GODDESS YOU'RE ALSO MY ROOMMATE!" I started laughing again. Evan laughed nervously. "Awesome." He said. I noticed his tattoo. His crescent was already filled in and he had little owl feathers going off the sides. "Woah." I said as I got closer to his face. "Yeah, my grandma said I was blessed by Nyx." I was blessed too. She gave me an angel... My own thought made me blush. "Well, I'll help you with each and every one of our classes. We'll get through it together." I laughed and started back towards the classroom. "See ya, Evan. Oh. And I'll try finding you at lunch." "Alright." He said nervously. 

"So, did ya meet the new kid?" Tyler asked me. "Yeah, he seems pretty..." "Pretty what? Hot?" "No! Tyler shut the fuck up!" "You like him." "No I don-" Tyler put his hands over his mouth and said "HA GAAAAAYYYY!" All the kids in the hallway turned our direction. I started laughing as I punched Tyler in the arm. He only rolled his eyes and went to his next class which was math. However, my next class was computer and I love that class. Right now we're doing design and the teacher is seriously a bad ass and my one friend Craig was in that class with me. "Hey, mate." Craig said as soon as I walked into the classroom. It was funny. Every single fledgling in this school had an sapphire outline of a crescent moon. All except Evan. My face heated up again. Why the hell does he make me feel like that? I'm just glad I haven't turned all horny and shit about his blood. I did notice his heartbeat. I could hear it speed up. But when I started laughing his heartbeat slowed down. "Jon. Jon!" I looked up at Craig. "Are you alright?" "Yes, just dosed off." "Too much Mortal Kombat?" I laughed. "Yeah probably." Craig looked back up to Professor Abigail. She was pretty awesome, and her favorite thing was video games and the design. Her tattoo was of course the crescent and then what looked like computer mice on each side. She said her tattoo was pretty hilarious. Professor Abigail's mate was the physical education professor, which is what I have after lunch. Professor Daniel. He was sorta tough on you sometimes but I can live with it. Now our High Priestess is something I'll have to warn Evan about when we're in our room. Alone... I mentally face palmed. "You sure you're alright Jon?" Craig whispered. "Yeah, fine." 

Computer class was different today. Maybe because I wasn't on thought. I walked into the dinning hall. I immediately started looking for Evan. I found the Asian surrounded by fifth former girls. He was only a third former. I ran over to the crowd. "Evan!" I said over all the chicks. "Johnny?" I laughed. "Yes its me!" "You sound like fucking Adele." He said as he pushed past the girls. "So whats for lunch?" He asked. I grabbed his arm. "Vampyres want to eat healthy and shit." "Aw. Do they at least have pizza?" I pulled him over to the 'Italian' part of the dinning hall. His brown eyes lit up. I swear I could see the reflection of the pepperoni pizza in his eyes. I laughed as I handed him a tray. He grabbed a bottle of Mountain Dew and two slices of pepperoni pizza. "This is what I eat every night with video games." He started laughing. "Hey, me too!" I laughed.

 Evan walked up first to the cashier. He typed in his number. "Thank you Evan." He nodded and walked a little and waited for me. I typed in my number. "Thanks Johnny." "You're welcome." I smiled and walked with Evan. "We sit all the way to the right corner of the dinning hall with the big window." "Ooo. Thats fucking beautiful." He laughed. We were both laughing as we sat down. I let him slide into the booth first. "Who's this?" Brock asked. "Oh this is Evan. Evan this is Brock. Brock, Evan. Evan, David. David, Evan. Evan, Lui. Lui, Evan. Tyler, Evan. Evan, Tyler. Evan, Craig. Craig, Evan." I took a deep breath. "Evan, Brian. Brian, Evan. Where's Luke?" "He said he wasn't feeling good." Tyler answered. "Oh, well to finish it up, Evan, Marcel. Marcel, Evan." We all laughed. "Well welcome to de House of Night." David said. "You'll love it here." Lui said in his squeaker voice. "Nah, it actually sucks ass." Tyler said. "Tyler! Watch your language." Craig said. "Eh, you get used to it. I actually got more sleep with this schedule." Brock said. We all laughed. "Don't worry nigga I gotcha back." Marcel said. "Yeah, and I think you'll be fine, you do have all classes with Johnny!" Tyler said. I glared him. "Oh, shit. I forgot my math homework." Brian said in his Arnold Schwarzenegger accent. Evan laughed. He laughed so hard his Mountain Dew came out of his nose. "Oh, shit I betcha that burns." I said and gave him my napkins. We all started laughing at Evan's little accident. 

"So we have gym next. You'll love Professor Daniel. I think we're starting fencing today." I said. "Oh cool, I've never tried fencing. Do we ever play hockey?" We all looked at Evan. "Hockey? Damn. On ice too?" Marcel laughed. "Shit, I'd fall on my black ass all the time." "Ye must have a lot of balance. I got me none." David laughed and shook his head. "Well, I think we should all come to my room tonight and play some video games." Lui said. "Hell yeah, I'm down. Well as long as thats alright with Johnny here." Evan pointed at me. Tyler winked at me. "Yeah, we'll probably be over later though." I said, knowing Tyler was gonna say something corny as fuck. "Alright well we'll see you guys later. Maybe 4:00 a.m?" Lui asked. "Yeah." I said as Evan and I went to take up our trash. 

There was a sub in gym today. Daniel and Abigail both had to leave for sixth hour. Seventh period math was pretty fun, especially with Evan. Professor Ryan was hilarious. Evan's laugh would warm up my heart and it'd make me laugh. Then my laugh sounded like a psychopathic killer. He didn't give us any homework either. Class ended wonderfully as Evan and I walked back to the boys' dorm in peace together. 

"So what's your favorite video game?" I asked. He was looking down at his red converse. "I gotta say GTA." "Me too, there's so much shit you can do." We both laughed as we reached the dorm. "It gets crowded in there sometimes." I said as I opened the door. We all passed through the living room in the boys' dorm. I walked up the stairs with Evan behind me. I opened the door to my room, well our room, and noticed Evan's stuff was everywhere. "Well welcome home!" I said as I plopped down on my bed. He sat down on his bed and it was just the two of us. Together and alone.
