He had to bite his tongue so he wouldn't start defending the girl next to him. Not that he cared about her feelings, but he hated people who couldn't admit they were wrong. The only reason he didn't say anything, was because it was friday and he really wanted to leave this bloody place. Since he had to go to school, he only had the weekends to explore the city and tonight he was planning to see the last part he hadn't been to.
He'd always liked theme parks and they only grew bigger and better throughout the years. He was really looking forward to it, thus he couldn't get any more trouble. Every teacher was already looking at him as if he was planning to murder the whole school, just because he teached some bastard a lesson. They weren't completely wrong, though, but still. He needed his freedom.
"Sorry, sweetpie," he spoke softly. "I'm not good at writing things down." He smiled apologetically at the pretty girl next to him, who was glancing at his almost empty sheet. It wasn't a lie - writing and reading was difficult for him, although he wouldn't admit it. The teacher didn't pay any attention to them anymore, thus he just stared at her. There was something odd about her; something more than the cute attempts to flirt with him.
Disgust? No, not really, though it was close. He couldn't see it, though, it was more as if he could feel it. He may have been able to see again for nearly six centuries, but he still was remarkebly aware of his other senses. Still, he didn't know for sure if she was really flirting with him or something else. He didn't know if she was just a normal human being or a Hunter either. He suspected it, but he hadn't seen much silver, nor a tattoo or a weapon.
Nevertheless, he was interested in her plans - whether it involved kissing him or killing him - and he did like to get to know her better. He stopped doodling - although he was in the middle of turning Columbus in a fancy, girly vampire - and leaned forward.
"Are you going to the fireworks?" he asked innocently. He didn't know many people or creatures yet, or what the hell was going on in this city, but he hadn't been completely oblivious. He also knew Helias was hiding something for him, but Thorne still let him. He didn't want to rush things up. He liked exploring the area.
While he was thinking and waiting for an answer, he moved his leg, causing his skatebboard to fall over with a loud blow. He muttered some cursewords which haven't been used for centuries except by him, and grabbed the wooden plank of the ground. Then he looked up with a goofy smile on his face while he mumbled a sorry. When he looked at another girl, she blushed and he smiled back. Humans were really easy sometimes. He looked back at Freya.
Sometimes too easy.
