~~~ [START]
The hallways were a drag to say the least, as students filled their metros passes, pushing past those who were moving in opposite directions.
Vlad hated them.
How could he enjoy them, why would he?
The smell of strong, potent teenage hormones flying across the air.
Unwashed repeated underwear, smelly armpits, with a strong concentration of deodorant, it was horrendous.
He knew teens were smelly, like hell, the day he turned into a vampire, Vlad couldn't even stand the smell of his own room, but this, it proved too much.
So, with all his strength and endurance, he pushed through, passing and moving past the crowds of teens.
Pushing forward even with his short standing figure.
As he moved, his stance remained unaffected.
As if the pushing he was experiencing from those before him proved futile, because it did.
Even if Vlad was little, even if they towered mountains of feet above him, he was simply inevitable.
An immovable object, or in his case, an unmovable man.

The cafeteria wasn't that hard to find, because everyone was relatively moving in the same direction.
All Vlad had to do was to follow along.
Getting there, a towering teen who was at least a foot taller than him, decided to offer the pleasure of opening the door, which for Vlad felt a bit offensive, since he didn't think anyone would give him curtain privileges because of his height.
He understood that his height made him stand out, but this…, it felt as if the teen before him was calling him disabled.
But that perspective quickly changed when the teen who opened the door, to let him pass through shouted, ,
"Ladies first!" Before laughing at his face and storming off.
It was annoying, the immaturity of his actions.
Yes, Vlad was young, probably the same age as him, but this, even for him, felt rather outrageous.
So, in an attempt to ignore the embarrassment, he moved quickly past it.
But unluckily for him, the teen's voice had shouted too loud, so loud in fact that the section of the cafeteria that was facing the door laughed at Vlad's sudden situation.
Vlad only shook his head as he smirked at his misfortune.
"Vlad!" Jessica shouted from the crowd, sitting not far from where he had entered.
And Vlad, seeing her face, couldn't help but smile.
It was bright, his smile.
So bright that those who were facing him remained stunned in their seats, clearly not expecting the spactical.
"Sup", he said, nearing closer to the table.
And immediately, he noticed that Bella's face had turned red, clearly blushing from something that, to him, remained a mystery.
Looking around, he got a glimpse of two boys chasing each other. One shouting Bella's name, and the other, clearly outraged by his friend's actions.
"You good", Vlad asked, clearly confused by the sight.
"She's the new toy", Jessica shot in, which only confused Vlad to the limit, so he dismissed the thought and sat down instead.
"Smile"
CLICK!
A girl who was wearing glasses appeared and took a photo. Sending a flash that slightly blinded Bella and everyone who sat close.
"Sorry", she spoke, pulling a chair and taking a seat, "I needed a candidate for the feature",
"The feature is dead, Angela!", a boy, who sat at the same table shot back, "Don't bring it up again", he stood and stormed away, clearly angered by her actions.
"Sheesh", Vlad spoke up, "No introduction, I don't know you people", and they all looked at his figure, clearly stunned by his words, then they blasted into laughter.
"I'm sorry,", Jessica couldn't control her endless blushes, "this is Angela," she pointed at the girl right next to her, "she can introduce herself, but I'm just giving you a brief, to quicken the time,", She then looked around, "that is Eric, Tyler and Mike… Newton"
"Newton?" Vlad was taken aback, "like the father of lies?"
Angela laughed at his question, "You mean physics"
"Oh, don't believe in it",
"What?" The entire table looked at him with shock. "I'm joking," he defended, afraid that if he pushed it too much, they wouldn't help but mistake him for stupid.

"Are you sure you aren't related?" Jessica was asking too much.
"What?" Vlad dared to shoot back, "You think I wouldn't know if I had a teenage daughter?"
And the entire group couldn't help but slap their faces at his words. <🤦♂️>
Bella, who had grown very accustomed to his remarks, just laughed at what he had spoken.
Then,
"Who are they?" she asked, her eyes fully locked on a group of students who were walking toward the cafeteria.
"The Cullens", Angela spoke up, excitement evident in the sound of her voice.
"They are foster kids, to Dr and Mrs Cullen," Jessica then continued, "they moved out here from like… Alaska a few years ago"
"They kinda keep to themselves," Angela shot in again.
"Yeah, cos they are all together… like together, together".
"Hey guy, is it just me or are they walking in slow motion", Vlad couldn't help but speak out in whispers, truly amazed by their sight.
And the table only laughed at his words. As if his sentence proved too true to be overlooked.
"Look," Jessica focused, "The blond girl that's Rosalie and the big giant guy is Emmet and… they are like 'a thing', I'm not even sure that's legal."
"Yes, they are not 'actually' related"
"Yeah, but they live together", Jessica disturbed Angela's words. "It's weird".
"Sweet home Alabama", Vlad relaxed in his seat, "you gotta love it", and the table just looked at him with a sceptical glance.
"And yeah, the little dark-haired girl is Alice, she's weird." Jessica continued, "and the blond-haired guy is Jesper, don't know why, but he always looks like his in pain"
"I heard it was diarrhoea"
But Jessica only ignored Angela's words, "his with Edythe, the dark-haired girl that's walking right behind him".
"Dr Cullen is like this, foster dad slash matchmaker," she laughed, as Angela remarked, "Maybe he'll adopt me," as the two of them slightly began to giggle at the intention of her words.
"Who's he?" Bella broke their giggles, as her gaze refused to break-lock from a boy walking through the door.
And Vlad, as if noticing her look, shouted ,
"Noo!", only enough for his table to hear. "He stole you from me", he faked being hurt, "He stole you, my… love", he held his hair as if in need to cry, "oh, how I bred you, how I fed you, and you insult me with this?" He laughed, clearly amused by the sound of his own voice.
And Bella just clicked her tongue at his words, but eyes still locked forward.
"That's Edward Cullen", Jessica continued, "he's totally gorgeous obviously. But apparently nobody here is good enough for him", she gazed down and started playing with her food, which didn't go unnoticed by Vlad.
'Food', he thought, thinking about the fact that he had missed breakfast, "Yo, Bella", he disturbed her stunned look, "can I borrow like, 7 dollars, I'll pay you, when I'm up".
And immediately, without questions, Bella just moved her hands and removed a couple bucks from her pocket.
"Huh", he was stunned as she handed it to him, 'no questions', he couldn't help but think. Feeling as if maybe this version of Bella came with her own version of benefits".
"Thanks", he stood up from his seat and made his way to the counter.
And before he could proceed, before he could take another step.
A strange, unknown scent was present in the air.
He didn't know what it was, and to him, he felt as if it wasn't even present, yet his instincts spoke something else, as they immediately shot and alarmed his whole.
His face shot up, turning around and staring in a single direction.
Then he instantly knew.
Not because the entire group of people who were sitting there were staring dead straight in his direction.
Not because, his eyes had magically discovered some unknown magical secret.
But because he saw it. And the only thing that could release from his ever so stunned nature.
The only words that he could speak out in that split of a second.
"Fuck Me, Man".
