himself.  “You really have to ask me that?” he said, looking down.
                  “Should I not know?” I asked.
                  But he just shook his head.  “It’s nothing too bad.  He’s just dangerous at times, that’s all. And the only interest he’s showing now is because he knows who you are.” He admitted.
                  “Really?  I’m dangerous?”
                  Both of us quickly turned to see Sean Morrison standing nearby.  He didn’t look too concerned over the conversation he’d apparently over heard, though he was looking at Raziel with a bit of distaste.
                  Raziel quickly shot him a look back.  “You know it’s the truth.” He said.
                  “I don’t see where I’m any worse then you now.  And I certainly wasn’t doing anything to cause harm this morning.” Sean told him.
                  “What do you want?  I know you came looking for us.” Raziel said, moving over beside me.
                  “I did.” Sean confirmed.  “Actually, I was going to ask Mia how her first day was.  I trust she didn’t have too much trouble.”
                  I quickly shook my head, feeling myself blush a little.  It didn’t matter what Raziel said.  Sean Morrison was still very hot.  “No, I didn’t.” I managed to answer.
                  “There.  You asked and you were answered.  Now leave us alone.” Raziel ordered.
                  “You’re far too uptight Raziel.  I was hoping to ask Mia out sometime.” Sean said.
                  “Not happening!  Now leave!” Raziel yelled.
                  Needless to say, I was in shock then.  I couldn’t really figure it out.  I barely knew Sean Morrison, and he was talking about asking me out.  Maybe it was a good thing Raziel was there after all.  There was no way Sean couldn’t have been up to something with that one.
                  Sean just shrugged him off though.  “That’s fine.  Guess I’ll see you two around then.” He said.  Then he walked off.
                  Raziel shook his head, grabbing my hand.  “Come on.  Let’s get out of here before I really do hurt him.” He muttered.
                  To say I was confused with all of this would’ve been an understatement.  But at the time, the best I could do was follow Raziel out to our cars.  I didn’t see a sign of Sean as we left the parking lot, but I guessed that was a good thing.  Raziel was obviously steaming now.  I didn’t get it myself.  Just what was Sean up to?  By now, I was sure that it wasn’t coincidence that he’d come up on me that morning.  What I didn’t know was why he’d go out of his way to cause this kind of trouble.
                  After getting back home, I decided to once again try to put all of these strange things to the back of my mind.  Instead of thinking about them, I tried to keep myself busy.  I worked on homework for the first hour, then decided to fix dinner for Michael and I.  I debated on whether to mention the fighting to him though.  But in the end, I decided not to.  I didn’t want to start trouble from the beginning.  I was just starting my new life here.  And it had to get better.
                  Michael himself got home around six.  He seemed pleasantly surprised when he realized I’d fixed us dinner.  It wasn’t anything fancy, but it certainly made for good one on one time for us.  But sitting down at the table, I prepared myself for the eventual question I knew was coming.  And no doubt, it did fairly quickly.
                  “So how was your first day?” Michael asked me.
                  “It wasn’t too bad.  I have my afternoon classes with Raziel, though he sleeps through English.” I said.  No, I didn’t
