Nightshade Academy (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 5

AN: VOTE and COMMENT. O_O

I stared in disbelief as Juniper smiled crookedly up at me. He winked and motioned with his index finger for me to join him. I blushed and slowly shuffled forward. I timidly sat down in the seat beside him, keeping my gaze cast downwards. I heard him chuckle softly beside me and moved my head a fraction towards him. I peered through my fringe at his smiling lips.

"Did you manage to get into your room alright?" He asked. I nodded my head.

"Good." He flashed me a smile and I noticed his canines. They weren't huge but definitely large enough to be recognized as fangs.

"Um, thanks for helping me." I mumbled.

"You are more than welcome." He winked and I stared down at the table again. Crap, why does this guy make me so nervous? I cleared my throat and flipped through the packet. I furrowed my brows at the insane amount of questions. We were expected to practically write a whole biography on our partners and these questions were more than a little personal. On top of that we had to use different writing styles and even have poems and pictures included in our final project. Way to kick off the year. I sighed.

"Uh, so I guess we should get started." I glanced up at Juniper and found him to be staring at me. He smiled and rested his face in his palm. I licked my lips.

"So um Juniper." I began.

"June." He corrected me. I nodded my head.

"June...may I ask how you got that name?" It wasn't one of the questions but I just couldn't let it go.

"Curious?" He smirked. I blushed and nodded my head.

"Hmm..." I watched as June peered over my shoulder, running his tongue over his fangs absentmindedly.

"No I don't think I'll tell you." He finally said meeting my gaze.

"Oh, ok." I replied awkwardly, dropping my gaze to the packet. "Well uh, where were you born?"

"Somewhere." I glanced up at him. He smiled innocently at me.

"Um, do you have any siblings?" I continued down the list.

"Maybe." He shrugged.

"What are your parents' names?"

"Mr. and Mrs. Sterling." I sighed.

"Are you going to tell me anything about you?" I asked a little hotly. He grinned.

"Nope." He replied, popping the 'p'.

"Ok then." I grumbled, turning the page of the packet. June reached over and plucked the thick pages out of my hands. I watched as he tossed the papers down in front of him.

"What I want to know," He began, leaning back in his chair, "Is more about this so called 'mystery singer' Oliver Scott." I blushed and gently pulled down on my beanie.

"Well that does seem to be a hot topic today." I mumbled. June chuckled.

"I'm sorry but I was surprised to see you up on stage yesterday. You just seem a little timid to be singing in front of so many people." I smiled.

"Yeah that's what I said but Dakota and the others convinced me otherwise." I glanced up at June and noticed a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"So, you can be coaxed out of your comfort zone?" He murmured, leaning closer to me. I blushed and turned the other way. June grasped beneath my chin gently and turned my head back towards him. His face was mere inches away from mine and I could feel his sweet breath graze my lips.
