1089 Chapter 74- Reagan – First Day Back (VOLU 6)
~~
Reagan
~~
The first day back after the winter break was a little nerve wracking. Of course, Rika and I had been on the news with our parents when the reveal had happened. We were putting ourselves out there for the world to see. It’s a good thing that the people that ran the school were mostly super naturals like us. They weren’t worried about having us in the school.
I could only imagine how the others would fair if they had shown themselves on the news that day. Like Dominic and Vivian, Uncle Griffin’s kids, they were in England and going to Oxford. They would probably have a hard ti if they had shown themselves on the news. If people knew what they were before going back to school, then they might be kicked out of school.
Of course, with the laws that my parents had secretly passed all over the world, that would have left the school open to a lawsuit and litigation, they would have still had to go through the fight for it all.
No, I was really glad that we went to a school that knew what we were and that wouldn’t kick us out. Still, I noticed a lot of people looking at funny when I walked onto campus with Levi, Luka, Elias, Cypress and Beech. They were looking at the others as well, wondering if they were like or not.
So of the looks were filled with hatred and unease. They were the ones that most likely would boycott against us, and had probably lodged complaints with the school. I am sure that there would be a lot of students and parents protesting our admission into the school here, but that didn’t matter to . Not right now anyway.
So of the other people that were looking at us were just mildly curious. I could tell that they were going to be the indifferent ones. They were going to think sothing like, oh hey, they’re not human. And then that would be it. They wouldn’t protest against us. They wouldn’t want us out of the school. They wouldn’t do anything at all. These were the ones that we wanted to see the most. Those that had an attitude that said if they don’t bother us then I won’t bother them.
.....
And, lastly, the rest of the looks that we were getting were the truly unexpected ones. There were a lot of people, n and won alike, who all seed to be staring at us with a sort of idol worship or starstruck look in their eyes. That was definitely not what I thought I would see today.
What was making all of this worse though, was that these people seed to be following us. Every ti that one of us left a class, we seed to have a new entourage. And call crazy, but so of these people didn’t look like they went to school here at all. I an, there were so won in that group behind that were in their forties, not that older people couldn’t go to university, but still it was uncommon.
And when I looked at the group that was doggedly following my sister and her friends around, I knew that there were n in that group that weren’t students here. I had seen so of those n at the shops around the mall, and others were businessn that were still wearing their suits.
“What the hell is going on here?” I asked as I looked around the campus during lunch. Our entire group was seated together, strength in numbers you know.
“I am pretty sure that they are our fan clubs.” Rika said as she too looked at the n and won that were literally just watching us. “Mom and Dad have worked hard to keep us out of the news since we were babies, but now we have a fan club that is following us around. Our pictures are going to wind up everywhere. There will likely be paparazzi as well. They won’t make it up to the castle, but they will encroach on us here at school.” She bit into her sandwich that she bought from the shop before coming out here.
“Yeah, I think that she’s right.” Luka added as he took a bite of a decadent homade pudding that he brought in his lunch box. He usually ate als brought from ho. He was a hybrid and had a different dietary requirent than his brother. “If it makes any difference, they’re not angry at us.”
“Reading their minds?” I asked him with a laugh as I ate the cheeseburger I had ordered. I had almost lost my appetite though, I was just eating out of habit.
“Not really. There are too many to read just one. However, I am getting a little from them, over the buzz of the group. And that blip that I am seeing is one of admiration and love. It’s not real love though, more like idol love. How people love celebrities and all that.”
“But we’re not celebrities.” Lyssa said softly as she looked around. I knew that she was still a little upset about her mate and the betrayal, but I knew that Uncle Shawn and Uncle Dietrich had done sothing to help lessen her pain. She was moving on, but she was still affected by it, just a little.
“We are now.” Alexa said as she looked at the group of n that were watching her and the other girls. “The mont that the news showed that there were nonhumans in the world, and our parents were there during the reveal, showing what they really were, that was the end of our anonymity. We will be in the public’s eyes until all of this dies down.”
“And what if it never dies down?” Elias asked as he was monitoring the entire situation. He was always there to watch over us, just like an older brother.
“Well, if that were to happen, then we will need to learn to live with it all. I an, it’s not different from what our parents have lived through.” Of course, my mom and dad were a little more in the public eye than the rest of theirs. And I knew that Rika and I would be there with them when we were old enough, but it was all happening now. There was no waiting period or anything. We had chosen to put ourselves into this situation, chosen to be a prominent part of the reveal, and we would deal with what happened now.
While we spoke about this topic among ourselves, I saw that there were so people arriving across the campus. Most of these fans had found each other and started to group with each other. This new group, though, about six girls that all piled out of a large SUV in the parking lot nearby, had spotted us sitting there alone and started right toward us.
“REAGAN!” One of the girls scread at . “REAGAN! OH MY GOD! THAT IS TOTALLY REAGAN! LOOK AT HIM! HE IS SO HOT!”
“Looks like you have a fan.” Levi laughed as he bit into his personal large pizza.
“OH MY GOD! LOOK! THERE ARE THE OTHERS! I SAW THEIR DADS ON TV! THEY LOOK JUST LIKE SHAWN! THOSE TWO THERE! THOSE ARE LEVI AND LUKA!” Another of the won screeched out when they saw who was next to .
“LOOK AT THEM ALL! THEY ARE SO HOT!” Another squealed as they all walked swiftly toward us.
“OH MY GOODNESS! DO YOU THINK THAT THEY ARE ALL SUPER NATURALS? ARE THEY ALL NOT HUMAN? I SEE HIS SISTER, RIKA, SITTING OVER THERE! AND LOOK, THERE ARE ALEXANDRA AND ALYSSA! THE OTHERS MUST BE LIKE THEM!”
“EEEKK!” I heard another squeal as one of the girls toward the back got closer. “I SEEN ELIAS! HE IS THEIR COUSIN! OH MY GOODNESS! THEY ARE ALL SUPER NATURALS! AND THEY ARE ALL SO HOT! EVEN THE GIRLS ARE HOT! THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL!”
“I think these ones are a little more excited than the others were.” I laughed as I looked at them. “Should we head out?”
“Nah. Give them a show. All we’re doing is eating. And we still have twenty minutes until you and I need to head out.” Luka said as he took another bite of his special lunch.
“SEE! THEY ARE ALL EATING REAL FOOD! EVEN THE ONES THAT MUST BE VAMPIRES! IT REALLY IS TRUE! THEY DON’T DRINK BLOOD!”
“I WOULD LET THEM DRINK MY BLOOD!” One of the girls said way too loudly. It wasn’t a comnt that she had intended only for her friends to hear, she wanted us to hear it as well. All I could do was roll my eyes and shake my head.
“This is a bit much, isn’t it?” I heard Rika say from across the fountain.
“Yeah, but at least no one is getting hurt.”
I had to say that, didn’t I? One of the overly zealous girls made a break for it and started to run toward and the others at the fountain.
“REAGAN! LUKA! LEVI! ALYSSA! ALEXANDRA! RIKA! ELIAS!” She was saying all the nas that she knew, repeating them over and over again as she made her way toward us. “I LOVE YOU! ALL OF YOU! I WANT TO BE ONE OF YOU!”
While she was running, the girl wasn’t watching where she was going. She ended up tripping over her own feet and would have gone sprawling into a row of parked bikes if I hadn’t seen what was happening before it could actually happen. I was on my feet and over to her before she even knew what was happening. And of course, I caught the stupid girl before she could get hurt.
“Stop being so reckless.” I scolded her and saw the reverence in her eyes. She wasn’t listening to a word that I was saying.
“You saved .” She said in awe. “You saved .”
“I wouldn’t have had to if you weren’t running without watching where you were going. As I said before, stop being so reckless.”
“Y..y..yes.” She nodded, but I was sure that she still hadn’t heard . “Y..y..you saved .” She repeated those words again.
“Hahh. Just be more careful, OK?” I shook my head and sighed at her before I left her there.
“OH! EMM! GEEE! She squealed at the top of her lungs the mont that I walked away. “HE! SAVED! ! HE TOUCHED! ! OH! EMM! GEEE! THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!”
“GIRL!” Another one squealed behind her. “YOU ARE SO FUCKING LUCKY!” I just couldn’t deal with their stupidity at the mont. I had tried my best not to yell at the girl for being so stupid as she ran toward . I was done with my al and just wanted to get out of here. The others did too, after that display. We would make up anything that we missed later, we needed to head ho for the ti being.
For so reason, I had a feeling that my parents were going to want to know what had happened. This whole fan group thing was going to be a big problem. And this was all coming right after we had convinced them that we didn’t need to be guarded at school like this. We were supposed to be fine because there were so many of us.
However, I could see it now. There could be a group that ca to the university. They could pretend to be fans of ours to make it so that we didn’t pay them much attention at all. They could try to get close to us, but they could be so of those that would attack and riot. With all that had been happening in the world since the reveal had happened, I wasn’t going to put anything past these humans. I would make sure that we were all safe, but I would be wary of them until all of this stuff had finally blown over.
Hahh, just when I thought that things were going to be calm and peaceful for us when we were on campus. I guess I had been stupid and reckless as well. Oh well, I could fix that. I wouldn’t let myself be so na?ve anymore.
