He was not nervous. 

He was perfectly fine--

Actually, Zephan Fields decided that very moment he was NOT fine.

Not that anyone could blame him. The first days were always nerve-wracking. And Zephan had grown up in a less than healthy household, so yeah.

Gripping his backpack tightly, he ran his tanned hand through his jet-black bed hair, trying to find something he could focus on instead of thinking about all this.

Okay, I just have to get through this day. No biggie. No biggie! It's just like an actual school day. I shouldn't panic. I should be calm.

He inhaled and told himself he would make it. He could just be quiet and not say a thing.

Yeah, that could work. 

With that in mind, he took his first steps into the school, unaware it was where he would find love... in the most unlikely person. 

~~~~~~~~~~

Only a few hours into the school day, and he was already finding himself surrounded by trouble, or more specifically, bullies.

Bash Johnson was torturing a scared underclassman and Zephan was already beginning to feel a bit irritated. Seriously, did he have nothing better to do, like, maybe, study? Did he find purpose solely in belittling others below him? 

Then he said something that set Zephan off. 

"Wow, makes me wonder if your mommy is the reason you're so weak!"

That was the last straw. Zephan had lost his mom to power. She was still alive, yes, but she was no longer his mom. 

And for Bash to mock someone's mom for absolutely no reason?

It ticked him off. 

He suddenly slammed his tray onto the table, and its loud impact echoed throughout the cafeteria. 

He turned to Bash, eyes blazing as he stormed over, "Hey! That was NOT nice! You have the nerve to belittle people for absolutely no reason! You don't know what he's been through! Have you no shame? Oh wait, you probably don't if you torture people to inflate your stupid ego!" 

The tall brunette's face went red in anger. How dare he! "Excuse me?!" 

"You heard me! If you have the time to bother others, then use that for useful stuff! Don't use it to torment people who have no way of fighting back!" he yelled. 

"Why you little--!" he swung his fist at Zephan. 

However, he was prepared. With the reflexes his mom had refined, he dodged the punch and kicked him square on the stomach. 

The bully fell over, clutching his stomach in pain as he looked up to the person who had attacked him...

Only to see slightly cold eyes that promised pain if he tried again. 

Bash gulped and quickly scrambled away without thinking too long. What was that?! How did a shrimp like him get to be so scary?!

Zephan then regained his cool and turned to the kid, smiling gently while asking, "Hey, are you okay?"

"I-I'm fine! T-Thank you for saving me!" the underclassman Bash had been bullying smiled as he said that to Zephan. 

"No worries," he smiled back. 

The whispers then began as all eyes were on the new transfer student. Who was he and how did he stand up to him so powerfully!?

Dark green eyes were among the ones not whispering, and their owner, Morgan, couldn't help the twinkle that had entered her eyes. This new student was interesting, and she... she had to admire his guts for standing up for the kid. 

If one were to carefully observe, making sure to ignore the foundation put on her face, perhaps they would see the light blush on her face when her eyes looked at Zephan.
