Kade's POV

"Damn..." I muttered, gawking at the humongous concrete jungle in front of me. They say New York is the concrete jungle, well they clearly skipped high school. Teenagers, several feet taller than me, reunited together and couples joined at the hip. I walked further up the parking lot and onto the sidewalk so I don't get hit by a car on the first day of school. That would be like the last day of eighth grade all over again.

"Oh boy, I'm terrified." Andi sighed from beside me as she took in the view.

All the different scents of blood and fragrance filled my senses. I brought out the little bag in my pocket containing one of my favorite plants. Lavender. I took a few petals and crushed them between my thumb and index finger, the scent immediately took over my sense of smell.

Andi looked at me contently, then stared at the bag. "Geez, give me some."

She snatched the bag from my hands and crushed a handful. So many humans, so many scents. By blocking them, I won't accidentally end up draining someone, neither will Andi.

"Isn't it great?! We're all reunited!" I turned when I heard the familiar tapping of Lux's wedges. Her blonde hair flowed down her back in straight lines, covering the top back half of her floral dress. Along side her came Lottie, my aunt, who apparently was young enough to pass as a senior. Copeland struggled to keep up with their long strides as she attempted in running in heels, probably under their influence.

"Aye cous! We finally get to spend time together. Just remember, the plan is to meet up during lunch. Lottie here, will claim the best table. Good? Good. I got to head to Chemistry guys, see you!" Copeland rushed before tripping up the staircase.

"Yeah, I have Cullinary in two minutes." Lottie checked her watch. She have us all a big hug before trotting away. Lux stood there just smiling at us.

"Schedules!" Lux snatched the schedule that I didn't even know was in my hand. I fixed my pink flower crown and grey tank top. I felt very floraly today. I had a grey Hollister tank top, rose print shorts, gladiator sandals, and I topped off my cruel a with a big pink rose flower crown.

"Well at least we have one class together." She pouted. I dreaded going to health and safety. From all the chit chat I've picked up, the teacher always teaches the right way to put on a condom. Cause I'm so looking forward to losing my virginity, not.

The bell rang and the nerves kicked in. Lux and I headed to health and safety, while Andi separated from us to go to Physical Education.

Health and safety was by far, the creepiest classroom I've ever seen. There were posters advertising pregnancy tests, condoms, and birth control pills plastered on every wall. But the real creepy thing was, there was a banana on every table. Lux and I grabbed the paired table in the back. We stared blankly at the bananas on our table.

Just as the late bell rang, my stomach did flops and I felt like choking on butterflies.

Mason Teasdale walked into the classroom, taking a seat at the next table besides me. "Hey," I whispered to Lux, "why is your brother in a freshman health class?"

"Didn't you know? All the classes are co-grade." She told me. I had no idea sophomores could mix with freshman, let alone every other.

Thank goddess we have a female teacher. A male teacher would just be perverted. "Alright everyone," her voice was dry and brittle, "you may be wondering why there's food on your desk. Well the answer is simple. You will be taught the proper way to put a condom on." Kill me now. "One does not simply pull the condom on, like you would a pair of jeans or gloves. One must roll. The rolling technique prevents breakage, preventing accidental pregnancies." I heard snoring from besides me. Lux actually fell asleep, one hand propped on her cheek, stretching the skin on her slouching face.

"Miss Teasdale!" The teacher slammed her hand on her desk.

"Wuh, yes?" She fluttered her eyes open. The class began to snicker and some guys were giving her creepy lustful looks. Obviously they'd like someone as beautiful as her. I'm not complaining, don't get me wrong, I enjoy creepy looks as much as the next quiet girl. But, I don't get much romantic attention.

"Unless you want to become pregnant at the age of fourteen, I suggest you pay attention." The teacher huffed out.

"As I was saying, the banana is your practice. Take the condom and practice the proper way of rolling." The class began to joke around with the condoms, one guy even pocketed his condom and ate the banana.

As weird as it was, I tried rolling the condom on, but it refused to go on. "You're doing it all wrong." I jumped in my seat at the sound of a voice. I get really freaked out sometimes by the littlest things. "Let me show you."

Mason took both my hands in his. He guided my hands until the condom was all the way on. "Thanks." I awkwardly smiled.

"No problem. Maybe you can help me with my condom one day." My eyes widened slightly and I blushed a deep shade of scarlet. "W-with my condom for the banana, I-I mean. You know for p-practice." He said, flustered. I giggled silently and nodded my head. He smiled nervously before sitting down in his seat.

"'Maybe you can help me with my condom one day'." Lux imitated in a deep breathy voice.

"Shut up!" I elbowed her in the side, while we laughed.
