"Well. He bit her, she was his first bite." Arein said.

Sora nodded.

Aki gasped. "What?! Really?"
"And he listens to her?" Daisuke said.

Jake sighed. "I was wondering when you were finally going to tell me. I thought you didn't trust me enough to tell me. Or I was just not being a good dad..."

Arein nodded. "Only because she's helping him through it. She was doing good until he started drinking without telling her"

Sora shook his head. "After what you told me happened with you and Mom when you were my age. I was scared to tell you."

Aki nodded. "I see..."
Daisuke nodded. "Poor sora..."

Jake frowned. "But why would that make you scare to tell me? If you need help, controlling your thirst, let me help you. You don't have to hide it."

Sora looked down. "I'm sorry Dad."

Jake scratched the back of his head. "Guess I can't really blame you. I am very disappointed in you for not telling me but I understand. We will find a way to control your thirst."

"But how?" Sora said.

"Well for me, I went to a friend who helped me control my thirst. I'm sure she could help you too." Jake said.

Sora nodded. "You're not gonna tell Mom right?"
Cc walked in. "Tell Mom what?"
"Um Mom....hi...." Sora said.
"Hi sweetie." CC said.

Jake looked at Cc. "He met a girl that he likes." If he doesn't want his mother to know, he wouldn't tell.

"Aw that's great sweetie." Cc said kissing Sora's head. "Ok. Well I'm gonna go to work for a hour. I can make dinner when I get back. Love you both, bye." She walked out of the house.
"Daaaaaadddd!!" Sora said, a slight blush on his face.

Jake chuckled. "Did you want your mom to know the truth then? You know how angry she can get."

"Yeah. I know. But a crush.....really?" Sora said.

Jake shrugged. "It was the only thing I could think of that would make sense. Besides, you are at that age where you get crushes. Don't you have a crush now or something?"

"If I were to get a crush. It would be Arci. But I don't like her like that. So no I don't have a crush. And I probably never will....." Sora said.

Jake chuckled. "Don't say never. I did and I met your mother. She was a bit wierd. She actually wanted me to drink her blood. Never met a girl like that before."

Sora remembered Shana. "Oh....right...."

"Never say never Sora. Love finds you when you least expect it." Jake said.

Sora rolled his eyes. "Sure Dad...."

Jake rustled his hair some, chuckling.

Sora sensed something. "Arcileenne!!!!!!" He quickly rushed out of the house.
Arci was walking to the end of a cliff.
Sora quickly appeared behind her grabbing her just as she was about to walk off the edge. "Arci!!! Stop! What are you doing?! Where the hell is Arein?!!!!"

Jake blinked in shock. "Well then..." He went back to watching tv

Daisuke sighed."I'm getting worried about Arci. Should we check on her?"

"Yeah." Arein said.
Sora suddenly appeared in the ice cream shop with Arci passed out on his back. "Arein...."
"Shit did she do it again?" Arein asked.
"You should know better than to leave her alone!" Sora said.

Aki gasped "What happened?"
Daisuke frowned. "What do you mean again?"
Shana's eyes widened.

"She nearly walked off the edge of a cliff!!" Sora said.
"Shit! She's probably gonna be like this for the rest of the night." Arein said taking Arci from Sora's back.

"Why was she trying to walk off a cliff?" Daisuke asked, confused.

"Bye." Arein said walking out of the ice cream shop. Arci in his arms asleep.

Daisuke turned to Sora. "What the hell man?!"

Sora looked down "Gotta go." He walked out of the ice cream shop.

Daisuke looked at Aki. "Do you know what's going on?"
Aki pouted. "Yeah. They left us with the bill!"
Daisuke sighed. "Let's just go."
Aki looked at Shana. "Do you wanna come over with us?"
Shana shook her head. "No, not this time. I have some stuff I need to do." She gave them money for her ice cream. "Thanks." She smiled slightly.
Aki smiled back as Daisuke paid the rest. They all left the ice cream shop and went their seperate ways.

(Timeskip?)

(Sure. You start.)

(Kk. Next day then)
Arci and Arein walked into the school.

Shana was by Aki and Daisuke's lockers but the twins were nowhere to be seen.

Arein walked by her with Arci. "Hey Shana." They continued walking.

Shana simply waved and kept waiting.

"So Sora is coming late today." Arein asked.
"Mhm. He called me and said he was just gonna go visit his aunt Kiriei. Then he'll be here, around lunch." Arci said.
"K cool!!" Arein said.

Shana continued to wait and then sighed. "Guess they are going to be late." She headed to class.

Arci and Arein walked in to see Sora in his seat talking to a girl.
"Sora?" Arci said.
Sora looked over with a smirk. "Yo?"
"I don't know what you're thinking. But no." Arci said.
"Chill. I was just keeping her company until her friends come, or yall came. This is my mom's friend's daughter, Theresa." Sora said.
"Hi." Theresa said.
"Hi. Who's your mom? And hows she know Cc." Arci said.
"Joanne Greene. Her and Mrs. Braz work together." Theresa said.
"Ok!!!" Arci said.
"Are these your cousins?" Theresa asked.
"Nope! My cousins are gonna be late cuz I'm supposed to be late. It's annoying, but the truth." Sora said.

Shana walked in and saw Sora and the others and felt too shy to walk over so she simply went to her desk and waited.

Sora walked over to her and kneeled down by in front of her desk.. "Hey? Shana, sorry for yesterday. You probably hate me. So I'll stay clear of you, it was really cool hanging with you though. I really wanted to be your friend too, you seem really cool." He smiled and walked back over to the others and they started to talk.
Sora shook his head sadly.
Arein facepalmed.
Arci sighed.
Theresa crossed her arms and glared at Sora.

Shana was surprised by that and was about to call out to him when Aki and Daisuke and rushing in the room, out breath from running.
"We...made...it....." Aki managed to say.
Daisuke could only nod, trying to regain his breath.

"There they are." Sora said not looking at them.
"Oh." Theresa said.
"Hey guys!!!!!" Arci called.
"You look exaughsted." Arein teased.

Aki laughed slightly, still trying to regain her breath. "Yeah....we had...a doctor...appointment..."
"Doctor wouldn't give us a note for class so..." He winked at Arci. "Hey there." He noticed Theresa and smiled. "And hello to you too."

Arci and Theresa giggled.
"Jeez." Arein said.
Sora facepalms.

Aki rolled her eyes as she walked over to Shana and hugged. "Please don't let my brother charm you."
Shana blinked and then giggled, hugging her back. "Promise."
Daisuke walked over to Theresa. "So what's your name?"

"The-Theresa." Theresa said.
"Arein. We need to talk." A blonde girl said walking over to him.
"Kyra? Um ok." Arein said.
Kyra grabbed him by the hand and pulled him out of the room.
"Oh no..." Sora said.

Daisuke nodded with a smile. "Theresa. I like it. It suits you." He looked over and watched Arein get pulled away.
Aki turned to at Arein leave with a girl. "Who was that?"
Shana shrugged. "His girlfriend?"
Aki nodded. "Seems like it. Though she didn't look too happy to see him."

"She's not." Sora said sadly.
"Sora, do you mean...." Arci started.
Sora nodded.
"Oh no. Arein...." Arci said.

Aki frowned. "Is she going to...dump him?"
Shana sighed sadly. "Oh...that must suck...."
Daisuke nodded. "Yeah....but I wonder why."
