Even In The Darkest Night (Jinx/Rosto NC 17+)

[Jinx]

By the time Jinx had stumbled back home after three days of meditation in the forest, he only had a couple of hours before he had to leave for school. He decided to give up on any chance of sleep, despite how exhausted he was.

He practically fell into the shower, removing all twigs and various wildlife from his body and slathering himself with coconut-smelling soap and shampoo. He pushed his long black hair over his shoulder and wrapped a towel around his waist as he shut off the water and headed through the doors to his bedroom.

Jinx pulled black jeans over his slender legs, and a form-fitting red shirt with a v-neck over his head, before desperately drying his hair with the towel and tying it into a loose ponytail, with fine strands curling gently around either side of his face.

He grabbed his backpack off the kitchen table and hastily stuffed a piece of cooling toast into his mouth, locking the door clumsily and walking briskly down the secluded road to his bus stop. He frowned up at the gathering rain clouds, wondering whether or not he should alter the weather slightly, as the bus pulled in next to him, breaking his concentration. He climbed the stairs and settled into a seat towards the back, placing his tattered bag next to him.

There were few students, and most of them were clustered towards the front in a loud, chattering group filled with preppy looking girls and charming looking guys. He resisted the urge to roll his eyes and smiled easily as he gazed out the window and plugged his iPod in, getting ready for the boring half-hour trip to his school.

((Finally got approved))

This day just could not get any worse. First off Rosto was late for his first day as a student teacher. And his roommate just so happen to lose the tie that he had set out the night before. "I am going to kill him the next time that happens." He muttered under his breath, pushing curly red hair out of his blue eyes. He wore dark gray pants that were formal, yet they were lose fitting were slightly fading.

The white shirt he had pulled out was pulled on next over his olive tinted skin. Muttering a few other things under his breath. He pushed his hair behind slightly pointed ears that came from his 'mother' side of the family.

Finally finding the tie, Rosto quickly put it on, tied it and then grabbed his shoes and pulled them on. All he really wanted to do was go out into the woods and just run. Get away from the mass of people in this town. Looking up with blue eyes he grabbed his jacket and walked out towards where his and his roommate’s car was. The bag like suit case he had with him, held all the work the teacher he was assigned to gave him.

Tossing that into the other seat of the car he hopped him keeping his blue eyes on nothing. Rosto hated being the shy creature he was, and being on Earth did not help him one bit. But he came here from his home planet hoping to find his mate. Just like his father and brother have. But that still did not mean he would find his mate here. Rosto was just hoping that’s all.

Heading towards the school he slightly drummed his fingers against the steering wheel as the school came into sight. Pulling into the parking lot where the teachers and such put their cars he found a parking space just off to the side. Getting out he grabbed his bag and walked into the school and headed towards the class he was assigned into. 'This is just going to be great.' He thought shaking his head knowing it was going to be horrible.

Walking into the class room he looked towards the teacher and nodded his head to the guy. The guy gave Rosto a smile. "Yeah, and you must be Mr. Bullard." Rosto then said setting his stuff up. Now waiting for the horrible day to get over with.

[Jinx]

Jinx quietly observed the new student teacher with an unnerving stare and his chin resting lightly on his palm. There was something off about him, and it took the teen a moment to recognise the pointed ears and place their origin.

"Jshiko..." He murmured it under his breath, before realising that the half-breed could probably hear him with his finely attuned hearing. He turned his head away to avoid suspicion from the student teahcer, looking out the window with a pout on his delicate features. This could be troublesome, if he was also recognised for what he was, due to the fact that he had been told to keep a low profile on Earth by his brother. He already had trouble with that, as his dragonis side had a tendency to get the better of him and he was angered quickly, although he could be very kind and warm depending on the person.

He narrowed his eyes slightly as his dragon-like temper rose at the thought of being discovered by another. He had thought he was the only one of paranormal backgrounds to settle on Earth, as he had not encountered any other creatures while he had been here. It was a foolish thought, as many species from everywhere often stopped here briefly in search of mates or prey.

Jinx could only hope that his sharply pointed features would not reveal his dragonis ancestry, and as long as his back was covered, it would most likely conceal any hints of his fae side. He snarled slightly at the teacher, now thoroughly peeved and allowing his dragonis side to overwhelm his other emotions.

As soon as the opportunity arose, Jinx put up his hand to ask a question of the newcomer, tossing his pitch black ponytail over one shoulder and watching his every move with his piercing stare.

"And how long will you be with us-" There was a heavy pause, where he sneered slightly, "-sir?"

[koray]

Rosto's head snapped up slightly just hearing that one word and he stiffen. His eyes holding alarm in them quickly before it faded as he looked at the students. 'Oh great.' He thought quickly, 'one of them....' This nearly made him shudder at the thought of someone knowing who, and what he was. But he did not have much time to think as one of the students raised their hands.

The question was asked by a teen boy, with the most beautiful black hair. 'Oh no, not here!' he thought quickly as he heard the boys voice. Sounding like music to his ears, which was to his knowledge not supose to happen unless.... 'No he.... I...' Rosto then thought quickly thinking of what to say or do, but he had to answer the question and quickly thought up an answer for the boy.

"3-4 months.... d-depends on ho-w quick I-i learn." Rosto managed to say managing to keep his shyness to a low. "And its Mr. Velasquez." He finished looking at the boy once more, something about him sent shivers down his spine.

It was like he had to know who this boy was, and why it affected him so. The beast side of him keep snarling in him, kind of like saying he was the one. But Rosto did not want to believe this one bit. This boy earthling or not, could not be his true mate. There was no way in hell this boy could be his mate.

[Jinx]

He smirked at the teachers shyness, and leant back in his chair, hair swishing gently with the movement. He spun a pen half-heartedly in his fingers before replying.

"Thanks, Mr. Velasquez." He rolled the 'l' in the teachers name slightly, playing with the sound of it on his tongue. He then grinned mischievously up at the Mr. Velasquez, "Can I call you Mr V?"

He knew he was baiting the student teacher, and wondered how the older man would react to his teasing attitude over the next few months. He laughed quietly and musically at the teacher's stuttering, and would have found it adorable but for the threat this man posed for his secrecy. His fae temperament was starting to seep back in, and he found himself less irritated and more amused with his current predicament, despite the still looming worry. He stuck the pen in the corner of his mouth as he waited patiently for a reply, playing idly with a strand of hair that had escaped the hair band.

[koray]

Rosto watched him and closed his eyes slightlya nd ran a hand throuhg his hair. Which did nothing for the curls, they just sprang foward and curled down to frame his face slightly. Looking back at the student he could not help but get on edge slightly and rub the back of his neck. Shuffling through his papers a bit he looked around for a second before back at the kid.

"Yeah... thats fine." Rosto said brushing some curls out of his eyes as he study the boy. 'Why do I have this feeling... its just building with everything he is saying.' He thought blinking a couple times. "Si-nce you k-know m-y name.... w-whats you-rs?" Rosto then asked looking way slightly from the boy.

He could tell that this boy was having a good time making fun of him. And he could not help but be angry and yet his anger did not last with him. 'Oh I'm just going to have to go with that I have this reaction to him.' He then thought setting his papers back down.

'I'm going to have to find a way to talk to the kid when no one is around.' Rosto thought looking at which paper was on top.

[Jinx]

Jinx grinned again, enjoying the reactions he was getting. He leant forward over the desk, and pulled the pen out of his mouth languidly. He ran his tongue over his slightly pointed canines, still watching the teacher closely before replying.

"I'm Jinx Linea, Mr V. But you can call me anything you want." He winked cheekily at the teacher and smiled softly.

His friend, Chloe, chuckled quietly, biting her lip and staring out the window to avoid laughing out loud. He knew he was being a jerk to Mr Velasquez, but for some reason he just ached to see what other reactions he could coax out of the shy man. With a bit of prodding, Jinx was sure he would view the teachers angry side, and who knows what else. Baiting him was just so easy to do, and he loved the pink tinge and stuttering that came with his shameless teasing.

[koray]

Rosto bit the inside of his cheek as he listened to Jinx. Which was an unusual name as far as he knew. But he kept that one to himself as he looked at the kid and then quickly looked away. Lightly now biting his lower lip, trying to ignore the kids bantering long enough to control his feelings. But something else about him caught his eyes, or maybe it was just the way he acted. "Great, a drag" He muttered to himself fiddling with a couple of the papers on the desk. It was hard to tell at first but, he had met several dragons before but never one like Jinx.

Seeing the wink he averted his eyes quickly, and was happy that his hair got in the way to hide the blush that was coming to his cheeks. He was lucky that the teacher finally called the class to order, it gave him something else to think about. Even though deep down he did not want ot stop thinking about Jinx.

As the teacher told the clase who he was, Rosto just nodded his head and went back to looking through his papers. Trying to think of a way where he would not have the kid bugging him. Or make him feel the way he felt, it was getting to him and making his thoughts clouded.

[Jinx]

Jinx noticed the recognition light in Mr Velasquez's eyes with unease, and knew he had probably worked out his dragonis side. Something had to be done to prevent this teacher from spreading, unintentionally or otherwise, his background.

He waited until the bell tolled for his next class to make his move, slowly gathering his books and waving Chloe on in front of him before approaching the desk. He waited for Mr. Bullard to pack up and exit the classroom, and watched with a smirk as Mr V started gathering his things. Jinx sat on the edge of the desk, swinging his legs playfully and chewing on his pen obnoxiously.

"So, Jshiko, how do you wanna go about this?"

He grinned at the half-breed, leaning closer and trapping the older man between his legs so he couldn't escape. It probably looked very suss, but at the moment, he was more concerned with this man knowing his identity...

[koray]

Rosto was thankful for the bell to toll. Gathering up his things he had started to mumble stuff to himself and did not realize when Jinx walked up to him. Catching his breath sightly he looked up at the kid as he sat at the edge of the desk.

Running a hand through his hair, he cursed himself for not hearing Jinx come over. Tucking a few strands of his hair behind his ears. Trying to keep from jumping up and leave. But now that was not an choice as Jinx trapped him there, with his legs.

"W-hy does it matter? I....i....."

'Fuck' He thought shaking his head. 'I can't even say two words to him without wanting to take him and not let him go.'

[Jinx]

Jinx smirked again, and looped his arms across the nervous teachers neck, leaning into him.

"Let me re-introduce myself, Mr V. I'm Jinx Linea, half dragonis, but you already knew that didn't you? my clever little Jshiko."

His smirk turned into a grin and he cocked his head to one side, studying the teacher intently and half-heartedly rolling the pen around in his mouth.

"You have this delightfully adorable little stutter around me...Am I really that intimidating?"

He hooked his slender fingers under the tie and pulled it, and effectively the teacher, closer to him. His grin faded as he warily watched the teacher, who looked like he desperately wanted to turn and run from the student as soon as possible.

"So, Mr V. What should I do? You risk exposing me, and I have no plans right now to return to my brothers care... I'm already on my second warning you know."

[koray]

Rosto flinched slightly as Jinx wrapped his arms around his neck. This was getting out of hand and quickly, and Rosto did not eve know what to do anymore.

Rolling his eyes slightly as he listened to him, he shook his head. "N.not intimidating.... j-just m...y nature." He managed to say trying to look at something else instead of Jinx. Not knowing what to do he closed his eyes.

But he looked back at Jinx as he gripped Rosto's tie. He let out a soft gasp as he was pulled closer.

"W-who s....aid.... I w-would expose y-you?" Rosto then asked, lifting one eyebrow in a questioning manner. but all he wanted to do was get out of there, away from Jinx. Before HE did something he would regret.

[Jinx]

Jinx smiled fleetingly before dropping of the desk gracefully, standing practically chest to chest with the other man and re-knotting the now tangled tie that had been tugged slightly out of place. He removed the pen from his mouth and tucked it behind his ear, tongue poking out slightly as he focused on the tie.

"Then I suppose we'll just have to live in harmony with each other for a couple of days. A pity, I enjoyed playing with you... Another time, perhaps?"

He fixed the collar tenderly and leant against the desk with an absent look, still smiling slightly as he worked. He finished and peered up at the older man, "You know, for me to leave, you need to move. Unless of course you want to keep me here, pinned to the desk..." He grinned mischievously, "not that I'd complain, of course."

[koray]

Rosto could not help but catch his breath as Jinx dropped from the desk, and was now almost having their chest touch. 'Why now?' he asked himself as he watched Jinx. Trying to figure out what to do about this.

His mind caught bit's and pieces of what he was saying. Not that he did not want to listen it was just, he was distracted by Jinx. And this caused him not to focus on the words that were come from his lips.

But he did catch part of what he was saying about, him having to move to let Jinx go. And in all truth he did not want to let the teen go. Even though he knew it would be for the best to let him go. But Rosto just shook his head. "A-and what i-if I don't wan-t to l-let you go?" He asked leaning in closer now. Inside he knew it would of been better to let him go. And just forget all about this, but he just couldn't do that. That one part of him told him not to let Jinx go.

[Jinx]

His eyes widened slightly as the teacher took the bait, and he debated what to do next. He knew what he wanted to do, but he wasn't sure if it was the best course of action considering the situation. It only took a few moments for Jinx decided that he definitely wanted to take the risk.

He grinned and weaved his arms around his neck, pressing his lithe body against the older males. Jinx hovered his lips just over Rosto's, still smiling slightly and looking up obligingly at him.

"Then I suppose I'll just have to let you kiss me, hm?"

He didn't wait for Rosto to make the first move, instead he covering the gap and catching his lips in a searing kiss. He ran one of his hands through his adorable curly red hair, the other clenched slightly in Rosto's shirt.
