The next few nights are a little easier. Paris realizes he can't spend every night over at my home, even if it's what we both want. We were lucky my parents haven't walked in on us the times he has slept over. Even though we weren't fooling around, my parents would never trust me alone with him again. Besides, school starts tomorrow. Things are going to be different now. We'll still be a couple, but who knows how much we'll get to see each other. He's a junior and I'm a senior. I don't think we'll have a single class together. We need to cherish the memories we shared this summer, and use every minute we have with each other to our advantage.
***
My parents decide to take me out for one last dinner of the summer. My first instinct is to invite Paris, but they want this dinner to be "family time." I know it's hard for them to understand that we're in a serious relationship, but it pisses me off. I try to wave my anger aside and enjoy myself, even if Paris isn't with me.
My Mom is teary-eyed from the moment we arrive at this fancy steakhouse. She can't believe I'm going to be a senior in high school - my last year at home. My Dad even sheds a few tears, and they both tell me how proud they are of all I've accomplished in high school and for transitioning so well from New York City to California. They tell me to order the most expensive steak on the menu, but I stick with the rib-eye while my Mom and Dad both order a filet mignon. I tell them all about Paris and I's date at the beach cafe, leaving out the racier parts. I tell them about how great it felt just to drive with Paris, and they roll their eyes at me, giggling at my silly young love.

Our meal comes, and it's absolutely heavenly. I finish every last bite and the three of us return home, my parents yelling at me to go right to bed. I have to get used to not sleeping in till the afternoon. I say goodnight to them but don't listen to their orders, shutting off the lights and pulling back the window curtain so I can check up on Paris. He's sitting on his bed, wearing a tank top and fluffy pajama bottoms. His thin, light skin almost glistens in the moonlight, and I wait desperately for him to look up from the book he's reading so that we can say goodnight to each other. As if he can read my thoughts, Paris looks up and notices me on the other side of the road. His lips quickly curl up into a beaming smile and I blow him a swift kiss. He catches it within an instant, holding his fist close to his chest, closing his eyes with joy. The two of us exchange one last glance - his jet black pupils staring into my sparkling emerald rings.
Here it's just the two of us - the way it should be.

First Draft
Taking care of someone was hard. Harder still when the only job you can find is a graveyard shift at your brother's school, which is apparently haunted by a man claiming to be the devil. Oh, no, how horrific. I'm so scared. So, terribly, horribly, atrociously scared. Whatever shall I do? My life as a janitor is a simple one, and that clingy asshole won't leave me alone, so forgive me if I don't put enough gravitas into the situation. The only really scary prospect to this whole thing is that the KKK is in town, and I really don't want to deal with their bull. The gang activity is enough, why do we need to have an all-out war on school grounds? That will be too much for me to clean as a poor, lonely graveyard janitor. Old Summary: My gaze raised, and I observed the darkened face of the ghost, only visible feature being glowing red eyes. They faded into darkness, and I thought the offer over even as the body seemed to grow heavier in my arms. My first friend since this whole thing started, a few years ago. My brother needed to survive. That didn't mean I did. "What's the price?"

Artemis
"Let them go, Dante." I whip my head to see a small boy standing the clearing with blonde hair and a green cloak hanging from shoulders. He isn't very tall however he holds his stance well. He doesn't seem to be more than Cassandra's age. Maybe 12 at most. I abruptly turn my head back hearing the man holding a sword to my throat chuckling with a sinister grin. "Oh, poor boy, what are you go to do about it?" The yellow teeth gleam as he begins stalking towards the boy who does not look the least bit fazed. I look around at the other men who are following the leader. I pull Cassandra tighter to my back as I take small steps back. I keep my eye trained on the men but also fear for the naive boy. "Do you really want to test me Dante?" He asks raising a single eyebrow. For a minute the men stop their movements. I see their hesitation for fear... Fear of what? I take the moment to stick Cassandra behind a nearby tree. She crouches down while I pull my sword out from its place. "How do you know my name?" The scoundrel raises his sword challenging towards the boy before taking a final step towards him. Then the unexpected happens. The young boy chuckles so darkly. It sounded almost... demonic. All the men instinctively raise their swords. "Oh Dante, I didn't know your name... but you know someone dear to me." "Spit it out boy!" The once grinning man is now looking around frantically. I continue my eyes scanning the small boy. He looks directly me and gives me a small nod before saying one word that caused all hell to breaks loose. "Artemis." Artemis is not an ordinary girl. She grew up in the wilderness after being shunned due to unique abilities and her different physical attributes. Blessed with an ability that scared others, she roams the wild with only her guarded one. That is until she stumbles into a situation that brings her in front of a prince.
