It seemed the class went on for ages as Lamento scribbled down half-hearted lines of some crappy short story. It wasn’t like he cared. School was a drag, and he’d rather be with friends. Talk about your average teenager- though there were many things about his life that wasn’t normal. Being a vampire for one. Lamento signed his name on the piece of paper, his handwriting was in cursive with loose lazy loops. Making it look rather sloppy, though still eligible and rather nice. But he hadn’t been putting his heart into it, his mind preoccupied. He sat there with his closed book, eyes staring out the window in silence until he heard the bell ring.
“Your homework assignment will be to read this book and record your thoughts of the stories. Adiosu.” He said. He set a stack of books on the table and leaned against his desk. “A chapter a night and no less, no more.”
Lamento sighed at the teacher, staring at the board. He closed his book and stood with the rest of the students, handing in his half-hearted story and grabbing a book, slipping it into his black messenger bag.
