"Hey, is it true you killed a guy?"

Fucking hell!

I noticed eyes from a few tables around us turned to look and I sighed.

"Guys, leave him alone," Logan scolded his friend and the boy pouted.

"What? I'm just curious," he defended and a girl with pink hair beside him nodded in agreement.

"Ty, remember how you felt when you first came here? Remember how everyone kept asking you the same thing?," Logan narrowed his eyes and the boy, Ty, paled slightly.

"I'm sorry, Kit," he immediately apologized. I remembered how Logan has said "accidents" were pretty common and that I shouldn't feel so bad about it. It was clear that something had happened before he came here too.

"It's alright," I gave the blonde boy a smile.

He relaxed and Logan and I sat down. Across from Logan and me were the pink haired girl, Ty, and another girl with purple eyes and pastel purple hair. She was a neko. Her ears and tail made it obvious.

"Kit, this is Ty, Sora, Tara and the ball of sunshine next to us is Zavier," Logan introduced, pointing at each of them. They all greeted me, even the guy next to me, Zavier, gave me a small wave. He wore all black, his black hair was up in a quiff, and the scowl on his face showed that he was far from a "ball of sunshine".

"It's nice to meet you," I responded with a small smile.

"So your an incubus too? That's cool. I'm a warlock. Sora is a siren, Tara is obviously a neko, and Zavier is a nephilim," Ty said and took a bite of the chicken on his plate.

Dinner flew by pretty quickly after that and once I was finally in bed, I had a dreamless sleep.

Logan's alarm woke me the next morning. We rolled out of our beds, did our morning routines, dressed, and grabbed our backpacks. I tossed my phone into my backpack after turning it off, and Logan led me to homeroom. Our first few classes were together, so he led me to each of them.

By the time lunch rolled around, I was dreading my next few classes. I didn't have any of my new friends in those classes. In order to avoid any anxiety, I turned my phone on and a flood of texts from Harley appeared on the screen.

I promised myself I would give you a day to get settled into your new school before yelling at you, and since it has been a day...

KIT RYDER EVANS, WHAT THE FUCK?! What the hell gives you the right to leave me in this hole alone?!

i should kick your ass for not sneaking me in with you! Just tell them I'm a witch or something!

fuck, I've already gotten groped. That jock Danny grabbed my tits during passing period. And i don't have my boyfriend to scare them away now! What am I supposed to do?!

Her last text had a burning rage building inside of me. I wanted nothing more than to go back and kick Danny's ass. My finger flew to the call button before I even realized I had pushed the button.

I raised my phone to my ear and waited for her to answer. After a few rings, she finally answered and started yelling in my ear, causing a few people around us to flinch at her loud voice. It occurred to me that they probably had enhanced hearing.

"Kit! How dare you leave me here!," she began.

"I know, I know. I'm sorry. I'm really sorry I never got to say goodbye," I interrupted and she calmed down immediately.

"I know it's only been a day, but fuck! I already miss you so god damn much. It's okay that you didn't get to say goodbye, I understand," she said and I smiled a small smile.

"I miss you too."

"Who you talking to, baby?," I heard Danny ask in the background.

"Ew! Get your hands off me, Danny!," Harley yelled. The rage built inside me again and I clenched my jaw.

"Harley, could you hand the phone to Danny?," I asked in the nicest tone I could muster. It was clear that I was pissed off though.

"Who is this?," Danny asked.

"This is Kit Evans. Now, I would appreciate it if you would keep your filthy hands off my girlfriend," I began with a menacing tone.

"Oh really? I find that hard to believe. Besides, I can touch her as much as I want. She is my girlfriend, after all. I believe you lost the title of boyfriend when you left," he sassed.

"Harley would never date a prick like you. Just because we don't live in the same town anymore, doesn't mean that we aren't still together. Ever heard of a long distance relationship? I won't hesitate to come back and kick your ass," I spat.

"Ha! A twig like you beat my ass?," he tried to sound amused, but I could hear the tremble in his voice.

"You'd be surprised. Danny, this is your last warning. If I hear of you laying a hand on my girl again, I'll break your fucking arm. Understand?," I threatened and I could hear him gulp.

"Understood," he shakily responded and I could hear him pass the phone back to Harley. She was laughing and I smiled.

"Call me later, okay?," she happily asked.

"I will."

"Good. I love you, okay? Have a great first day," she said and hung up.

I turned my phone off and tossed it back in my backpack. I loosed up and flushed when I saw tons of eyes staring at me.

"Whoa," Ty mumbled.

"Remind me to never piss him off. He's scary when he's angry," Sora said and I chuckled.

"Kit, you now have my respect," I heard Zavier say and I looked at him confused. He rolled his eyes and explained, "You stick up for those you love, and aren't afraid to get physical if it comes to it. I thought you were a pushover, to be honest. You have my respect."

"Thanks," I smiled.

"So a girlfriend, huh?," Logan smirked.

"Actually, she's my best friend. We had told everyone that we were dating so people would leave us alone," I explained and he nodded.

"So, she's available then? Care to introduce us when she visits?"

"She's a lesbian. Sorry dude," I laughed and he pouted.

"Damn," he grumbled.

My last class of the day was Physical Education. The only difference between this class and the one at my old school, this one also taught combat and such. After intense warmups, we were taught the proper knife throwing technique and then spent the rest of the period practicing.

After class, I showered and dressed back into my normal clothes. I headed back to my room and did my homework while talking to Harley on the phone.

Honestly, I kind of liked it here. I felt like I belonged.
