Always Here (A Vylante Fanfiction)

Chapter 1: The First Meeting

Vylad's POV

Beep! Beep! Beep!

"Ah!" I yelled as I fell off my bed, startled by my alarm.

"Are you alright, baby brother?!" Garroth asked, bursting into my room.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I just fell off my bed," I said, getting up at turning off my alarm.

"Oh. Okay. I'll leave you to get ready for school now!" he said then left my room, closing the door behind him.

I yawned and stretched then got changed into my uniform. I then combed my hair and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth. Once all that was completed, I went downstairs and was greeted by Zianna, my mom, who had made breakfast.

"Morning, Pea! Are you excited for your first day of high school?" she asked, happily.

"Morning, mom! Yep! I can't believe I'm in high school already," I said.

"I can't believe it either! All my babies are in high school! You grow up so fast,"

"Don't worry, mom. No matter how old we get, Garroth, Zane, and I will always be your babies,"

"Aw! That's so sweet of you to say, Pea!" she said, hugging me.

"Well it makes you happy and if you're happy, I'm happy," I replied, hugging back.

Zianna then let go of me and gave me my breakfast. I took my plate, thanking her, then joined my brothers and dad at the table, my mom joining us soon after.

"So Zane, Vylad, are you two excited for high school?" Garroth asked Zane and I.

"The only reason I'm excited for high school is because I get to see the Shadow Knights." Zane answered in his high pitched, nasally voice.

"I'm excited for everything!" I said, smiling brightly.

"I'm glad to hear that, Vylad. Zane, I'd advise you to stay away from the Shadow Knights. They aren't good people," Garroth said.

"They are amazing, Garroth! You're just too blind and empty headed to see it! Besides, you can't tell me what to do," Zane retorted.

"Zane, apologize to your brother for calling him empty headed!" Garte, my dad, said.

"Sorry..." Zane grumbled.

"It's okay, baby brother. I forgive you," Garroth said, cheerily.

Once we all finished our breakfast, Zianna, Zane, Garroth, and myself got into the car in the driveway and Zianna drove my brothers and I to school. The drive was only a few minutes long and when we arrived at school, I got out of the car with my brothers and stared at the large building in awe.

"Bye, boys! Mommy loves you!" Zianna said to my brothers and I through the open car window.

"Bye mommy!" Garroth replied then our mom drove off.

Zane just walked away, heading somewhere random, and I followed Garroth to the fountain that is in front of the school. When we got there, Laurence, a friend of Garroth's, walked over to us with a boy with royal blue hair and coal black eyes and another boy with snow white hair and emerald green eyes following behind him.

"Hey Garroth! It's great to see ya, buddy!" Laurence said to Garroth.

"I-It's great to see you, too, Laurence," Garroth replied.

"I'd like you too meet Dante and Travis. Dante, Travis, this is my bud, Garroth," Laurence said, introducing the people with him to Garroth and completely ignoring me.

Personally, I didn't mind being ignored. I'm kind of used to it.

"It's nice to meet you, Dante and Travis," Garroth said to the bluenette and Snow White.

"I-It's nice to meet y-you as well, Garrith," Travis said, shyly.

"It's Garroth..." Garroth sighed.

"Well, putting Travis' mistakes aside, it's nice to meet ya as well, Garroth! Also, who is this little cutie hiding in the background?" Dante said, walking over to me.

"C-cutie?" I asked, shocked and nervous.

"Yes. Although, you not exactly cute now that I see you up close, you're adorable." he said, winking at me.

"Dante, I suggest you don't flirt with Vylad. He's Garroth's younger brother and Garroth can be overprotective. Also, I'll disown you as a friend if you keep doing it." Laurence said.

"So the cutie's name is Vylad, huh? That's adorable. Anyway, it's nice to meet ya, Vylad." Dante said, ignoring Laurence.

"I-It's nice to meet you too, Dante." I said, shyly.

"So you're a shy one, are ya? Well if you'd like, I can help you get rid of that shyness."

"U-Um..N-No thanks,"

"Heh... You suuuure?" he asked, dragging out the 'u'.

"Y-Yeah," I stuttered.

"Step away from my baby brother, Dante," Garroth growled, stepping in front of me.

"Okay, dude. No need to get hostile," Dante replied, stepping back.

"I warned you, bud," Laurence said.

"I know but I didn't believe you. Also, you can't just expect me to stay away from an adorable little thing like him," Dante said.

I felt my face heat up a bit and Dante smiled at me, showing his pearly white teeth. A low, guttural growl came from Garroth and Dante instantly stopped smiling. I was afraid something bad was going to happen so when the bell rang, I was relieved. Garroth mutter something under his breath along the line of "You're dead," before gently grabbing my wrist and heading into the school, me tagging along. We stopped at our lockers first then Garroth walked me to my homeroom. I quickly thanked him, giving him a hug, before heading into my classroom. I saw Travis sitting in the back next to a girl with long black hair and hazel eyes and I also saw my brother, Zane, sitting in the back on the other side of the classroom. I would've sat next to my brother but Travis happily waved me over and I went and sat by him and the girl he was by.

"H-Hey Vylad!" Travis said to me as I sat down.

"Hey Travis!" I replied.

"Um...I-I'd like you to meet my not alone buddy, Aphmau. Aphmau this is Vylad," Travis said, introducing the girl next to him and I to each other.

"I-It's nice to m-meet you, Vylad!" Aphmau said.

"It's nice to meet you as well, Aphmau," I replied.

"So Vylad, do you want to be not alone buddies with us?" Travis asked me.

"Sure! One question, what's a not alone buddy?"

"It's kind of like a friend but not at the same time,"

"Oh. Okay!"

The second bell then rang and the teacher called roll. Once he was finished, he let us have free time and Travis, Aphmau, and I talked about things we did over the summer, what we like, and what not. During the conversation, my mind started drifting off a little to other subjects, or rather, one specific subject...Dante.
