.. Shawn happily followed along eventually leading me to where I was going to stay. It was odd seeing everyone living in a dorm type of buildings, and us, it looked like a normal house. Again, marble. While going up the steps I saw my belongings to the right of the porch. Gathering my things I handed my clarinet case to Shawn to help carry. He eyed the case while opening the door, "What is this?"
I chuckled and said "A bomb", but only to be silenced by his slight angry look on his face. "Has anyone ever told you, you are cute when you're angry... I'm kidding, it's not a bomb, but I'll show you what it is when we get settled." I laughed t him.
Entering the house and looking around more I noticed there was an upstairs and some one else was living here." Is there someone else living in this particular house?" Ignoring what I said he led me upstairs to a room on the left. "This is where you'll sleep." settling my things carefully on the floor and my clarinet carefully on the beautiful plush bed. "You still didn't answer me" I spoke to him
"Don't you remember what Paul said? You're like my pet and I have to keep and eye on you." He gave me a smile. You have to be kidding me, I sighed and rolled my eyes, "But where do you sleep?"
"In the room across from you," he pointed at the door, he gave me a weird smile, wow what a creep. "So will you show me what's in the case?" Oh yeah I forgot already. I plopped down on the bed picking the case up. I turned it around so it was facing Shawn. Slowly opening the case I heard him gasp "What is that black magic utensil" Oh god, that made me burst out laughing. After that I started at him blankly.
"Its a clarinet" Looking confused he still kept starring. "Shall I pay it for you?" He nodded slowly. While assembling it, it was kind of nice to see someone to take an interest in such a common instrument. Finally soaking my read I put it on for the finishing touch. Scrambling for some sheet music to play, damn it I forgot to pact it. I sighed and played some tunes from memory.
As if his eyes couldn't widen anymore he looked flabbergasted in silence. Sitting awkward I quickly put my instrument away before he could say anything. "That was FANTASTIC, I never heard anything like it>" He finally broke the silence and started clapping. I blushed, "There are many types of instruments out there, perhaps I could take you to see a field show competition" I gave him a friendly smile. He looked like a kid excited for Christmas, he then pulled my hand out and slowly put his face close to it from which I could feel his breath on my hand, He then pushed closer and kissed it.
I pulled away quickly wiping my hand and giving him a weird look. He then pulled my hand again, but this time not kissing it. Instead he pulled me up and showed me the rest of the house, it was funny to see that the outside of the house was marble and the inside was paneling and beautiful wall paper. After he was done showing me the whole entire house freaking holding my hand the whole time he said he had to work on a project. So i decided to unpack my things. Its funny i didn't bring a lot of female toiletries, if ya know what I mean.
I wonder when he'll be back so I can go to the store. Eh the room is stuffy, there is a closet a dresser and a desk with a chair. Each looking expensive. Nothing really to do for time to pass, I decided to take a nap.

i woke up about an hour later, another confused sleep. I looked around and remembered where i was. I got up and looked for Shawn, first knocking on his door. At first he didn't answer, but then opened the door. "What's up" He greeted with a smile, "Can we go to the store, I need some things." spoke,
"We cannot leave after these hours on Mondays" He frowned, "Didn't Paul say for you guys to do as I say, besides I'm in need" I joked at him. He just laughed and nodded,"Okay let me put some normal clothes on, wanna watch." He smiled at me and did a little hip swerve. I just pushed him inside his room. I went into mine and grabbed a couple hundred from the shoe box I took.
Looking down at the money I felt anxiety build up inside me, my hands started shaking and my heart started beating frantically. I couldn't think of anyone other than my dad. I tried to push the box under the bed an put the money in my pocket. I kept breathing hard and sweating. I fell over on the floor unable to move. Seeing my father hit me in memories flashed before me with every flutter of my eye lids.
Shawn came running to my side screaming for me to be okay. He lifted me up from the floor and looked me in the eye and stroked the side of my face. I began to cry, but with each stroke of his hand I began to cry. For all this time I put up a strong wall, killed people who got in my way with out so much as a single regret in my mind.
Maybe it was the voices of those secretly haunting me that made my world turn upside down. I did what I haven't done in a long time, show my weak side to some one. For a couple of minutes I cried into Shawn's chest. I then stopped and stared at him feeling unusually tired. "Are you okay" He spoke still touching my face. I nodded and stood up. I took a deep breath,"Sorry you had to see me like that, it doesn't usually happen. Lets go'
He stood up next to me, I noticed he was wearing a tight black v-neck and skinny jeans. How do people like that come here to this little marble Hogwarts. He patted my head and led me towards the front of the 'campus' exit, and called for a car....
