Chapter 3: High Tech High
“You're gonna catch hell.”
Raenef's words replayed in Eclipse's head as he packed up for his next class. He sighed and lifted the heavy strap over his shoulder and proceeded to the door, schedule in hand.
“Eclipse, what's your next period?” Raenef asked, flinging his backpack over his shoulder and hurried to catch up with the other. Eclipse turned to Raenef and waited for the smaller youth.
“I have Spanish next.” The answer flowed from Eclipse's lips, reminding Raenef of cascading raindrops.
“Spanish?” He asked in a dreamy state.
His current mood slightly alarmed Eclipse as he found himself the center of attention.
“Erm, yes…” He trailed off, twirling a few locks of long, silky hair out of nervous habit.
From a little ways away, Rain was watching her brother and her best friend and followed as they walked to Spanish together, using her abilities to hide her presence from Eclipse. She listened closely, trying to hear the conversation between the two.
“I can't believe they're making you stay back a year!” Raenef exclaimed, almost shocked at the fact Eclipse knew so many things yet he was only technically in sophomore year. However, thanks to Marcus, he was stuck repeating the year of high school a teenager never wants to repeat.
“They are.” Eclipse mumbled in irritation. Rain noted how close the two were walking together and how their hands barley brushed against each other. How cute. She thought. Just as the two entered the small Spanish room, Rain went her separate way to the Graphic Design Classroom.
`
“That was one of the most boring classes I've ever had in my entire life, save for the Physics class I took last summer.” Eclipse muttered as he made his way out of the class as fast as he could.
Raenef giggled and sighed. “I told you you'd catch hell. You should've started on a Thursday or a Friday.” He followed Eclipse back to the fish bowl and back to Feroze for Science.
“I do not understand why Science and Math are combined as one class.” Eclipse said, as if the idea in general made no sense whatsoever.
This earned a small smile from Raenef. “Math and Science are combined classes because the founders of this school felt that both are related in so many ways that they should just be one class.”
“Hey Eclipse, how was your first day of “Professora Lupita?” The two turned to see Rain jogging to catch up with them.
Eclipse's eyes narrowed on the classroom door and then back to his little circle. “If she knew at lest maybe one ounce of English, I would've enjoyed the class a little more.”
Rain shook her head and hurried back to math class.
In the middle of said math class, Eclipse found himself bored, already knowing everything the teacher was going over. He instead found himself sketching random pictures.
“Okay, let's get into our groups and continue our roller coasters!” Eclipse snapped out of his little doodling frenzy and turned his chair to face his teammates.
“So, where did we find ourselves before we were forced to go to our second period class?” Eclipse looked up to find the one with glasses, Philip said. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Raenef roll his eyes.
“We were trying to figure out how we were going to power our roller coaster, if you'd been paying attention instead of molesting your laptop.” He muttered in a monotone voice. Eclipse smirked at the other's ability to make anything he said seem so graceful.
He turned back to Philip to find the boy clutching his white Apple notebook and stroking it lovingly, glaring at Raenef with a murderous gleam in his eye.
“You insulted my precious!” He croaked, forcing his voice to sound unbelievably like Golem's from Lord of the Rings. Chris growled and smacked Philip across the back of his head.
“Philip! Act like a human being, please!” He groaned, irritated with the nerd's outlandish behavior.
`
The school day couldn't have ended any slower! Eclipse thought to himself. He felt so brain dead because of his Humanities class, which he had for two straight hours. He shook his head and followed Raenef and his sister's little gang out the front door and across the way to the middle school.
High Tech Middle was much different from High Tech High. Every wall was painted a different color; orange, red, purple and blue, all in dark, stand out shades. What Rain called “cushy chairs” were all over the entrance, and a stage was in the corner. All of this reminded Eclipse of a coffee house minus the tables and the dim lights. Everywhere the black-clad teen turned there was color. So much color it gave him a headache and he prayed that they didn't have to stay here for long.
Why are we even here? Eclipse wondered in his mind. However, he didn't asked out loud his question as he spotted Chris's older brother, Krayon, talking with staff. When he spotted the gang, however, he bid his friends good-bye and went over to the five high schoolers.
“Hey guys!” Krayon greeted, twirling one of his long blonde locks. “I finished early because I didn't have any classes today, just parent meetings, let's go!”
Eclipse now understood what was going on. He remembered how Rain wouldn't come home until their father came to pick her up from Chris' house; this must have been because Rain carpooled over to the human's home. He often wondered why his sister enjoyed to company of humans; only now did he realize why she liked humans so much. He glanced at the blonde and found his object of desire was watching him. Eclipse gave the younger one a small smile and reveled in the blush he received.
Before Eclipse could snap back into his senses and not think about the lustful Raenef, he found himself sitting once again in Krayon's car.
“So, Eclipse, how was your first day at High Tech?” Eclipse pulled his gaze from the window and answered the question placed before him.
`
“It was interesting.” The words felt like music to Raenef's ears. He loved Eclipse's rich, Baritone voice. Raenef kept his own gaze glued to the road ahead of them and tuned out all other noises, something he'd become good at over time.
Only when he felt the sting of a slap via Rain's hand did he wake up from his dazed state. He turned to her and saw a face without expression; only her eyes gave away her emotion.
“Is something wrong? Did I say anything or something?” She asked, speaking to the other in the tongue of the Al Bhed. She watched as he shook his head and his crystal blue eyes twitched in Eclipse's direction.
An eyebrow that decorated Rain's face twitched as well as she tried to register what the action entailed. As if a light bulb lit in her head, the girl's face lit up like a birthday cake.
“Do you like Eclipse?” She asked, her voice full with excitement. When she saw the bright red that decorated Raenef's cheeks, a squeal of delight left her throat for the first time in at least six months.
This alarmed Raenef as he shot her a look. “Don't do that! He might get suspicious!” He shot at her. Immediately, Rain settled down again, letting Chris, Erutis, Eclipse and Krayon stay in utter confusion.
When Krayon pulled into the driveway, Rain burst out of the car and raced to the front door, using a spare key Krayon had given her to get inside. Raenef shook his head and chuckled to himself when he saw the expression on Eclipse's face. It was of utter bewilderment and confusion.
“Don't worry yourself, she always does that.” Raenef said flatly. “We're used to it.”
Eclipse shook his head and went after his little sister. The blonde followed the taller one and found himself ogling at the other's nicely toned ass, which was totally visible underneath the black coat he had on.
It didn't take long for the two of them to reach Raenef's room where Rain was, booting up the lithe teen's ps2 and turning the T.V. on. Raenef found himself close to laughter when he swore he felt how angry, or irritated, Eclipse was.
“Rain, don't you know it's rude to go barging into people's homes and using their things without their permission?” Ice could fall from Eclipse's breath. The tone of voice he used sent shivers up and down Raenef's spine and scared him.
“It's alright Eclipse.” Raenef whispered and laid a hand on the tall teens and was overwhelmed with sensations. He went rigid and tightened his grip on the other's arm, finding it impossible to let go of the other and leave his warmth. Electricity sparked from under his fingertips. His head started to spin; the room was becoming one giant blur of color. Raenef's head began to hurt from all the sensations he was receiving and forcedly let go of Eclipse.
“I-I'll be right back.” He stammered and shakily ran from the room, almost tripping over his own foot in his mad, yet controlled, dash to the bathroom.
`
Eclipse stood like an idiot, wondering what in the hell had just happened. One minute he was getting ready to lecture his little sister on manners and the next he was about ready to literally fall to the ground. He didn't know a single touch from the blonde could feel so…erotic.
Eclipse stared at the open door as it shut close with his sister's control over the dark arrow. Eclipse never knew how she did it, but he was learning from her, so he didn't mind.
“He's different, you know.” Eclipse's eyes drifted shut.
“I know he is.” He said. The teen turned to the other with a frown on his face.
“What are you getting at?” He asked, ready to switch to defensive mode against the ebony haired fifteen year-old.
“I can feel the attraction you two share.” She muttered, her brown eyes stared emptily at Eclipse. He reframed from biting his lip and leaned his weight on one foot. The lack of emotion in her eyes was scaring him; her brown orbs usually sparked with several emotions.
“Attraction? That's absurd!” He asked. There was no attraction between him and the lithe boy. There couldn't be. Eclipse was a demon, a strong one at that. Raenef was just a young boy. Even if there was some sort of attraction between the two of them, it wouldn't and couldn't' happen. Who'd ever heard of a demon taking a human lover?
However, his sister didn't believe this was true.
“No, it's not absurd. I've seen the way you two look at each other when the other's not looking. Why do you have to deny yourself of something you want? You can't be the cold hearted bastard father wants you to be. I know you can't. You have a heart Eclipse, why can't you share it with another?” Rain bawled, making sure her voice was quit enough so that people outside wouldn't hear her.
“I'll tell you why I can't,” Eclipse growled. “Every time I watch you give your heart to another, you always end up with the same heart thrown back at you. And I sit and comfort you as you cry your eyes out, knowing you didn't have to go through this grief in the first place!”
Rain's eyes sparked with anger and irritation as she glared at the other.
“You coward. You're afraid to love another because you don't want to go through heartbreak. Have you ever considered that Raenef just might want or like you in the same way you do him?” She was almost close to screaming now, her throat feeling raw.
This earned a grunt from Eclipse. “Alright, fine. Raenef intrigues me. I find him the center of my thoughts and dreams. He sends waves of pleasure down my spine with a single touch. His mind intrigues me as well. He's smart for his age, kind, gentle, quiet yet he always gets s his point across, he-” Eclipse cut himself off right there.
I can't believe it. Eclipse thought. “You're right Rain,” He muttered in shock. “I do want him, I do…like this human…”
Rain chuckled to herself. He's not as human as you think he is, brother. She chose not to tell her brother, not yet at least. Hell, she wasn't even sure if Raenef knew he wasn't totally human. Oh well, he'll find out soon enough.
Little did Rain or Eclipse know, the blonde himself overheard their whole conversation.
