I told Roman the my uncle was dropping me off today. He wasn't that thrilled and said that I needed to make it up to him. With Roman, me making things up to him could mean anything.

Cam parked in front of the school. "Ok, have a great day. Stay in school. Hugs not drugs," He started. He snapped his fingers as he thought. "Anything else I'm missing?"

I chuckled. "No, I'm pretty sure you got it covered." I unbuckled my seat belt. "Have fun at work?"

"Yes, because booking the next dj is real fun?" He joked. "My boss on my ass 24/7."

I laughed as I got out. I waved him goodbye before I walked up the steps of school. I spot Peter at the entrance and smiled as I made my way over.

"Hey, stranger," I greeted.

He smiled. "Pixie."

"You ready?" He nodded as he handed me his schedule. His locker is across from mine and we share three classes together. Great. "Well, you're in luck. We share first period together."

I gestured for him to follow me. I began explaining everything to him about the school: which teachers are a big pain in the ass to deal with, what foods to avoid at lun, excuse me, nutrition, and what to say to Miss Caste when you get caught passing notes. I showed him to his locker and he started dialing the combination. I looked down the hall and smiled when I see Shelley walking down.

I send her a little wave, which she returned before she walked into the bathroom.

"Who's that?" Peter asked.

"That's Shelley. You'll love her."

Shelley came out of the bathroom. Those blonde twins started mimicking Frankenstein as she walked by them. I felt my blood boil. I don't care if their dad's a cop, I will hurt them.I excused myself from Peter and went over to them. I stuck my foot out and made the twins fall.

"Hey!" They yelled.

I mimicked them mimicking Shelley before I glared at them. "Maybe you two should watch where you're going. Or has the chemicals in the dye make you even stupider. Fucking morons." I spat near their feet before I went over to Shelley. "Ignore them."

She gave me a sad look before she started to type on her phone. "You didn't have to do that," The robotic voice said.

"Hey, you're my friend. You're more beautiful than those girls combined. They're just as ugly on the inside as they are on the outside." Shelley smiled at me. "Are we still having lunch together?"

Shelley nodded as Roman walked up to us. "I sure hope so," He said. He smiled at me before he gave me a quick peck. "You ready?"

I shook my head. "Not today. I was going to show Peter where his class is. Save me a seat?"

I could tell Roman wasn't happy, but he nodded anyway. "Whatever."

He grabbed Shelley and started walking with her. When they were near the corner he looked back and send me a quick wink. I let out a small chuckle before I went towards Peter.

"Ready for hell?" I asked amusingly.

"As long as you're not in it," He joked.

I like this kid already.

Uncle Cam and I sat in front of the TV. He cringed as he took a big bite of his pizza when the priest started to exercise the demon. I even cringed when the lady's body jerked upward and she started to walk like a spider. He looked at me and motioned to the pizza.

"You sure you don't want any?" He asked.

I shook my head. "No, I'm still stuffed from school," I lied.

Cam wiped his hands over his plate. "Speaking of school, did anything happen?"

I took a big sip of my water. "Nothing too bad. We got a new student name Peter. His family's a gypsy, I believe. I don't know, but the kids are already talking crap about him."

"And what do you think?"

"I don't care what he is. Peter is a great kid. He's funny, nice, sarcastic when he needs to be."

Sure made me laugh in science when he showed me a drawing of Mr. Wentworth with tits. Yeah, he could act like a girl sometimes.

Cam grabbed his beer. "I like him better than Roman already."

I gave him a look. "You like everyone better than Roman." He would even set me up on a date with a dog if it means Roman and I are done.

"Kid might be rich, but that doesn't give him the right to be a douche bag. No offense."

I sighed as I got up. "Well, the girlfriend of the douche bag is sleeping over at his house tomorrow. I'll make sure to say hi to him for you."

I went to walk to my room, but he grabbed my wrist. "I know you care about him, Lyanna, but I want you to be careful around him. I've met guys like Roman before, hell your father use to be like him -"

"Until he met mom."

"Because he was willing to change for her. If it came down to it, would Roman change for you?"

I jerked my hand away from him before I went towards my room. I sighed before I crashed face first on my pillow. I felt my phone vibrate on my nightstand and grabbed it. My eyes squinted on the bright screen as I read the text.

Roman:

Night, Lee

A small smile came to my face as I texted him back,

Me:

Night. I love u

He responded immediately.

Roman:

Love you too

A/N: Don't worry, I'll explain how Roman and Lyanna's relationship got started throughout the book.
