Dan pulled on the dress jacket that his mother bought for him over the white shirt he had owned for a while, making a special effort to not look neat but still try and look a little bit presentable. And handsome, if Artemis was still coming to the party. Artemis, the Russian werewolf girl who he had only known for a few hours but was already thinking about for almost every minute since then. She had already kissed him and she was about to arrive at a tea party thrown in honour of Dan's mother in what could possibly make her the prettiest girl at the party. Which was going to piss his mother off to no end.
After checking in the mirror one last time, Dan walked downstairs into the large hall that had been rented out by the founders of the town had rented out for the event. After casting the most sarcastic smile he could manage (which wasn't hard) in the direction of his mum, the werewolf made his way over to the bar in the side of the room, ordered a pint of Coke and waited.

The night sky shone bright into the window of this young teenager’s apartment. Her new blue dress covered her pale skin and her red curly hair was beautifully draped onto her shoulders. The girl was looking at herself in the mirror, a place she found herself staring in every full moon. The pain was horrific and the thoughts just made her shiver and her skin crawl.
Artemis kept looking in the mirror, her eyes needing a break from reality for once. Her heart needing a break from the cute boys it met so far and the cutest one hooked in. Artemis had no way of turning back , if she avoided him he would be upset and hurt and she couldn’t bear the thought of hurting him, not after what she did.
Her goal was to protect this town and now she had to be more careful and protect him. Artemis sighed as she got out of her apartment, looking at her skin being touched by the moon yet her body didn’t respond to it. She did carry a small headache with her but that wasn’t important to her if it was important at all.
At some point Artemis realized that she had to choose between herself and this town, and unlike Russia, Paris, London and Washington, this town would be protected. She could build up a life of her own, a life she lived in peace and quiet, with a husband and a child. Artemis swallowed a big lump and cleared her mind for tonight, just tonight.
With a slight hurry the young girl drove off to the big mansion and got out of her car , her hand being held by a boy she only knew his name off. She rolled her eyes and nodded softly, thinking of how to dump him the moment she got inside.
Artemis knocked on the door and though she wished to wait, the guy called Tyler slammed on the door. Very mature. [/b] she sighed. [/size]

Hearing a great banging coming from the hall's door, Dan gestured towards his mother that he would get it then got up from his seat, put down his glass and made his way over. Okay, lemme guess where this guy will be on the douche factor. I'll predict somewhere in the 8 or 9 region. He opened the door to find Artemis standing on the step. He smiled at her and gave her a, "Hey." Before looking around and- Oh, he's a 12. Definitely a 12. The werewolf gave a stiff nod to his crush's date before he was pushed aside as Tyler went past him. Dan said to Artemis quietly, "Well, he's nice."
Dan walked back into the hall and made his way back over to the bar before asking the red-head, "You want a drink? My mum's arranged so I can get free drinks whenever I want throughout the evening."

Artemis really just wanted to dump the loser once she was got into the house. The sad thing was.. she had to confront Daniel with this douchebag. Once dan opened the door she gaving him an apologizing look and a quick Hi[/b] as she watched Tyler bang into the house and walked off.
Thank god he left.. i really dont needa guy like that around me. [/b] she said not adding " or guys at all " to it because thats a lie and she is a terrible liar. Artemis was glad Daniel was with her now and she got rid of the douchebag.
The girl followed him to the bar and smiled ordering a scotch. sorry about that guy, i wouldnt be able to get in without one. [/b] she said softly and looked up to see if he was around and gladly sighed once he was out of her sight.

Dan smiled at Art's apology and said to her, "It's all right, Art. Like you said ,you couldn't have gotten in otherwise." He reached forwards instinctively and squeezed the girl's free hand, not sure why he did so but still glad that he did.
Apparently, Tyler had seen this happening, because before Dan could say anything else to the Russian, he heard a yell of, "Hey!" And a flurry of rushed footsteps before the man who more muscles than common sense said angrily, "What the hell are you doing?"
Dan, not in the mood to argue at the moment, said to him, "Talking to a friend. Is that a crime now?"
Without warning, Tyler grabbed the back of Dan's shirt and pulled him off the chair he was sitting on. The wind was knocked out of the werewolf as he hit the floor and his ears started to ring when the back of his head hit the ground, but he could still hear the other man say to Artemis, "What the hell are you doing, talking to this loser?"
Dan's eyes flashed and suddenly Tyler was a few inches off of the ground with the werewolf's hand clamped firmly around his neck. "Well," he said through clenched teeth, "for one, you should never, EVER, turn away from me. And two, who says that she even tolerates you? Now, either give me a very good reason why you shouldn't die, or I'll hold you like this until your face turns blue."

Artemis took a sip of her scotch and was glad Daniel wasn’t upset or anything about this. As he squeezed her hand she couldn’t do anything but smile at him. She didn’t know why the hell she did something like this. What if he dies? She couldn’t afford love even if she wished she could so many times.
It almost broke her heart not thinking about loving someone, it did hurt. The Russian girl just took another sip of her drink as she almost choked in it when she heard the douchebag talking. Artemis coughed and looked at Tyler. Really tyler? [/b] she sighed not liking the logic that came out of him.
Artemis couldn’t even blink or Tyler pushed Daniel from his chair with such a roughness, the girl almost wanted to rip out his guts and make him swallow them. She eyed the sky and saw full moon shining bright. In the name of god please don’t make me regret this.[/b] she sighed and got up on her feet.
Tyler spoke to her like she was some object he owned. Seriously? You must be kidding me right.. I tried to avoid this loser all the time and now he is almost spitting in my face![/b] she said directing her words at him while she wanted to check on Daniel’s head, the boy apparently got up faster and was choking tyler.
Artemis liked Daniel helping her bit this went too far. As she grabbed Daniel’s wrist , Artemis covered tyler’s eyes. stop this. Your eyes, your face, you’re selling yourself out. [/b] she whispered and pulled his wrist off of Tyler’s neck.

As soon as Artemis' hand touched his wrist, Dan let go of the other man who stumbled away, choking and coughing. The werewolf watched until the douche had left the hall before he said quietly and apologetically, "Sorry. Guess my mood got the better of me for a second." He looked down at the ground as he talked, not wanting to meet the girl's eye in case she was angry about how he had almost killed Tyler. He looked around quickly to see if anyone had been watching and was thankful to find that no one had even glanced at what was going on.
Dan looked back down in front of him and said to Artemis, "Guess I fucked, huh?" He shrugged. "Hope that doesn't change anything."
