Welcome

[Iago Luther Mubarak]

How could he get away? Abe... he was hurt and sitting there wishing he was dead and somehow the little freak got away... Iago was ashamed. He didnt care all that much but he was suppose to be the one to let him go. He wasnt suppose to escape until Iago wanted him gone. Whatever. Iago got over it fast. he found new victims but got bored of them fast. none of them were as fun as Abe. Baby luke was getting soft. he hadnt kept someone in a while. He usually slept them and left before they woke up. There was no point in keeping anyone. He was so bored that he actually going after women. What has the world come to?!

for the first time in a long time Iago went to class. He slumped into his desk across from this girl Esmeralda... Well people call her Carmen. She was flawless... perfect... soft brown hair... skin like porcelain... She was breath taking... even for Iago. He was starting to develop a normal crush on the girl. he knew nothing about her except from the few things he's learned the couple of times they talked. He considered them friends and what not but he didnt know what she thought. He thought maybe she was the reason that he couldnt have fun with other people but he wouldnt admit it... he still blamed it on him losing Abe... maybe he actually liked Abe? He smiled at the thought... Abe wasnt special enough for any real feelings...

Carmen wasnt in the classroom yet. he sat in his desk like the bad boy that he was. he wasnt paying attention to the girls that were trying to get his attention. he took out his phone and pretended to text people. That was the only way he could get people to leave him alone. They were all so annoying. why did he even come to school? He had a habit of not coming to school. he had been coming but he didnt know why... what else did he have to do... nothing... he needed a new cause. he needed a new toy. He sighed getting sick of the people in the classroom. he was about to get up when Carmen walked in.

Carmy had begun to become completely stable again. The flashbacks came less often and things in general were just looking up. Abe was doing much better. Mason was no longer freaking out over Abe possibly breaking down. She even felt closer to Miguel since they had their fall out. She wasn't exactly falling back into her old ways, but she was going out with friends again and enjoying herself. The world was just a bit brighter. Maybe not sunshine and rainbows just yet, but better.

There was this guy in her class she had started talking to... Iago. He seemed nice enough. Carmy being Carmy though, had a feeling about him; she wasn't sure what, but a definite feeling. She pushed away the feeling, however. There was no proof that there was anything off about him, so she ignored it. Carmy thought he was cute. They hadn't talked enough for her to make a real opinion about him; he had just recently coming to class. They clicked in the short time they knew each other. Iago was interesting. He could carry interesting conversation. They spent a good portion of their time in that class talking.

She walked into class, immediately looking towards her desk to see if Iago was there. Carmy smiled when she saw him and walked over, plopping her but in the chair. She saw the other girls in the class give her a look. She simply returned with a death glare that scared them. Even when Carmy was in one of her more not bad ass outfits, she was scary as hell. She looked back at Iago with a smile, putting her elbows on the desk and her head in her hands. "Morning, you," she greeted cheerfully.

[Iago Luther Mubarak]

Iago sat right back down in his seat. not thinking twice about staying. So he came to class for Carmen... Its not like he had real feelings for him or anything. he couldnt. he wasnt the relationship type of guy. But Carmen was able to pick what he put down... so to speak. they were both badass and awesome for the most part. they just worked in a weird way. he wouldnt admit it but they would make a perfect couple. Iago was stubborn though. he wasnt going to let himself fall for someone... especially this girl. He liked the type that he could convert... turn bad... He liked making good girls go bad but getting a bad girl... to be bad with him? it was a weird idea to him but somehow it kept him coming to class every day.

He smiled as she sat down and glared at the girls. That was another thing he liked about her... she got those annoying hipster girls to leave him alone. all they wanted was sex with him and everyone knew that Iago liked the chase. he couldnt be with someone willing at first glance. he had to work for it... or he just takes it. "Good morning to you to beautiful." he said in his usual tone. flirting is just the way he talked. there was no in between.

The bell rang and the teacher started talking. Iago sort of checked out as the teacher talked. The teacher's voice was just so... boring and monotone. It could practically put anyone to sleep. The teacher stopped talking and the class roared to live with chatter about something.. "What did he say? I wasnt paying attention at all?" he asked as he turned in his desk to face Carmy.

[Esmeralda Carmen Beckett]

Carmy shook her head with a smile at his flirty tone. They seemed to speak to each other a lot in a flirty way. It was probably why so many of the girls in her class hated her: She got Iago's attention while they didn't. It wasn't as if she was trying to. It just sort of happened. One day he's not there, the next he is, and they simply clicked. But those other girls were just being their usual annoying teenage girl selves, as annoying as that was. She tuned in to listen to the teacher. Carmy had a lot of making up to do in the class still since she had missed so many weeks, in which time she took care of Abe while Mason was in his classes. She glanced at Iago at a point and noticed that he completely checked out. Like usual.

An in class project with the option to work on it outside of class? What was with this school and having lazy teachers? Partners? Well, it was obvious who Carmy was going to work with. She wasn't going to risk working with those other girls, and the boys all just wanted to get into her pants and then make her do all the work. Neither of those options were all that favorable. At least this way Carmy and Iago could talk without getting "the look" from their teacher for talking during class. She sighed as she read the project instructions: research an ancient empire history and write a paper describing what they could've done to survive until modern times. If there was one thing Carmy hated, it was research papers.

"Welcome back to reality, Spacey," she teased when Iago addressed her. "We're going to be partners in writing a research paper about a fallen ancient civilization, and describing what they could've done to survive until modern times," she explained to him. Carmy had no idea what civilization they were going to check out. Why couldn't their teacher had just assigned them one? "Oh, and it's mostly expected to be done in class, but we can work on it outside of class if we want."

[Iago Luther Mubarak]

Iago liked how she can come back with quick come backs. It was fun because she could call him on his shit. It was nice having someone match his personality... almost match... He threw his head back as she talked. ugh... School was so annoying. he sighed loudly clearly not wanting to do any work. but he wasnt going to let her do all the work of course. he wasnt stupid. just because he didnt go to school doesnt mean that he couldnt do the work. he just didnt want to. He was smart but he didnt do much work. He was lazy when it came to doing work. "Ugh school sucks." he said squinting at her as if he was physically in pain.

He straightened up in his desk. he didnt want to do it. not at school not at home... not anywhere. it would be nice if royals could just buy their way through school... If only the teacher was gay... Iago heard stories about students sleeping with their teachers for a good grade. he hasnt met anyone that has but there were rumors. "So what civilization do you want to do, princess?" he said with a smirk. "Lady's choice." He might be bad at relationships but he kept chivalry alive.

[Esmeralda Carmen Beckett]

"I don't even know," Carmy whined, stretching her arms forward over her desk and arching her back. Carmy did not to do this project. She knew she had to, but she didn't want to go through the hassle of researching some dead empire simply to please her lazy history teacher. At least if she had to do this annoying project with anyone, she got to do it with someone she could stand. For right now though, Carmy just wanted a nap. She folded her arms and placed her head on them for a pillow. "Stupid project.... Stupid class.... Stupid teacher...." she muttered, closing her eyes and trying to ignore the loud buzz that was the roar of her classmates' voices. Whose idea was it to stuff a bunch of loud, hormonal teenagers in one room? They needed therapy if they thought that was a good idea.

"Can't we just go to your place or my place later to work on this?" she asked. Carmy figured that once they were away from all the noise and annoying people, she would be able to focus on the project more effectively. Also, she wanted to get to know Iago better, and she figured that this would be a good way to, since they never really spoke outside of class. He was interesting, and unlike a bunch of the other guys she knew. There was something about him that made her want to get to know him better. Maybe that they were so alike, or at least seemed to be. They both couldn't deal with the dumb people in their class very well at least. He could become a great friend...

or more...

[Iago Luther Mubarak]

Iago nodded. He would so much rather us the time in class to space out or nap or something. he could totally do the research paper in a matter of second on his computer than write it in class with a million distractions. They were lucky that the teacher gave them the option to do it at home. the teacher was stupid... he wanted the students to do it in class but he was obviously too lazy to actually teach them anything or let them go to the library to actually research. he just wanted an excuse not to do anything. he sat at his desk looking like he was grading papers or whatever but he was probably playing tic-tac-toe by himself. What a lonely life teachers have. Iago sort of felt bad for them.

"I would rather do it later... there is no way I'm going to focus in here." he said bitterly as he glared in the direction of the girls that were giving him flirty looks. he was so out of their league. it was annoying how they pawed at him like he was some sort of man candy. Well he would gladly sleep with them but they were the annoying girls that expect something out of it... like casual sex didnt exist in their world. Iago kind of hated that... Hit it and quit is usually the way Iago went. For the rest of the class Iago sort of napped as him and Carmy made fun of those girls quietly. Nothing too bad just little jokes that were funny but could really hurt those girls feelings if they heard.

~~ so how about that time skip?

After class Iago told Carmy to meet him in the parking lot. He had his car ready and waiting by the time she got out there. He opened the door for her like any gentlemen would. once she was in the car he got in and drove just above the speed limit. They hardly talked in the car but only because they barely knew each other. every once in a while he'd look over at her slyly hoping she didnt notice. He couldnt help but admit her shiny thick black hair. it looked so soft and wonderful. it took all the self-control he had to not run his hand through her hair.

He parked close to the front door. He threw his keys to one of the Egyptian house staff members. He walked around he opened the door for Carmy and closed it as she got out. he slung his backpack over his shoulder and lead her to the door. "Welcome to the Mubarak weekend house." he said opening the door and ushering her inside. The house itself was remarkable. Everything was so elegant and artifacts from Egypt. They made it look almost exactly like the castle back in Egypt. Having that much money was just great.

[Esmeralda Carmen Beckett]

Carmy looked around the Mubarak weekend house with admiration. It was just so elegantly decorated. She couldn't help but run her hand over one of the busts on displays. She recognized it to be the bust of former queen of Egypt from ancient times, Nefertiti. She looked at the tapestries that hung on the wall. She was compelled by the fabrics' rich colors. She was tempted to touch it, but was worried she might harm the delicate material of the beautiful tapestry. The Beckett weekend house was very mod decorated compared to the Mubarak house. Simply walking through the house made her feel as if she stepped back in time. It wasn't unpleasant at all. Her own home was always decorated so that one was always reminded of the changing times: the furniture was never the same for more than a few months except in the private bedrooms.

She turned back to look at Iago who was simply watching her observe everything there was to in the entrance hall. Carmy thought that he fit the ancient setting of the house very well. He acted a lot more mannered than a lot of men she knew. Or at least to her he did. It gave him a certain allure that attracted her to him. Not that she would say anything. Carmy was approached, she didn't approach. Although, she flirted enough when she was interested that there may as well be a big flashing sign above her head. Slowly, she walked back to him, stopping when she was right in front of him. Carmy looked up at Iago. "So where are we going to work on this project at? Your room?" she asked.

[Iago Luther Mubarak]

Iago was proud of his home. Who wouldnt be? Egypt was so ancient that it was hard not to admire. the hand-made structures were so flawless it's hard to believe that the people that originally began the civilization came to an end. Everything downstairs of the house was originally from Egypt. most of it hand made... some replicas of the original. Everything upstairs was all pretty modern. Most of it from their parents generation and a few new things that were bought. they didnt exactly focus on the upstairs because unless they brought someone special over they spent most of their time downstairs.

"Certainly." he said with a smirk as she stepped in front of him. "Right this way." he said putting his hand on her lower back and lead her up stairs. He could be a gentlemen when he wanted to be. Surely if she was anyone else he probably wouldnt have brought her to his house... like his real house and not come hotel room somewhere. He was acting strange. he couldnt even explain it.

he eventually got up the stairs and into his room. His room was a typical teenage boy room. he had random posts on his walls, trophies from his little league years, books stacked awkwardly on his desk and bookcase and school papers that were dated months back... he doesnt clean in there much. he didnt let the maids clean in there either. it was just better that way. if he wanted it clean he would clean it himself eventually. "This is where the magic happens." he said with a wink as he fell on his bed laying on his back.

[Esmeralda Carmen Beckett]

Being in Iago's room made Carmy temporarily forget that she was with him at his place to work on a project. All she could really register was that she was in the room of a boy her age that she was interested in. She wasn't quite sure how she exactly felt about it. On one hand, it felt a bit strange -- the last time she was alone with a male she was interested in was in a hotel room. And that was a one night stand. On the other hand, it made her feel a bit warm on the inside. Even when she actually dated guys, she had never seen the inside of their rooms. Her ex-girlfriends' she did, but she was always terrified of what there might be living under her ex-boyfriends' beds. Most the guys she dated in the past were jocks, and pretty dumb ones too. The only real reason she stayed with them was because they were good in the sack. Those never lasted too long, however, seeing as how Carmy needed consistent mental stimulation to go with the physical if a relationship were to ever truly blossom between her or anyone.

Carmy snickered when he winked and fell back on the bed. Magic, eh? That was an interesting way to describe anything. She sauntered over to Iago's bed, hopping on top of him and kneeling with one leg on either side of his hips. Her hair fell in a veil, covering both her and his face should anyone walk in. She thought it'd be a bit of fun to simply toy with him a bit. So she leaned over his frame, arching her back like a cat and placing her hands on either side of his head. She knew it probably wasn't nice to play games like this. It could get her in some major trouble. She couldn't help herself, though. Games like these always made things much more interesting. "And what, pray tell, would that magic be?" she asked with a coy smile.

[Iago Luther Mubarak]

Iago smirked as she got on top of him. she was so much fun to be around. sure he thought that before she came to his house but there is only so much fun you can have in class. Their flirty little conversations and remarks and criticizing of the other students.... that was just kid stuff. but alone in his room was on a whole different game level. He ran a hand through her hair that was practically in his face. He rolled her over so he was on top. "Wouldnt you like to know." he said with a quick light kiss on her lips then he suddenly got up.

He got off his bed and grabbed his backpack and threw it on his bed. Why couldnt school just not exist? well of course it had to exist for those illiterate people that needed it but at a certain point school she just be optional. He grabbed his laptop and sat down next to Carmen again. He opened his laptop to some social network site. He opened a new tab so he could research something. he thought for a moment and he had no idea what the project was. "What do I have to search for?" he said turning to her. he smiled at just the sight of her. He bite his lip as all hope of doing any school work flew out the window.

[Esmeralda Carmen Beckett]

Carmy giggled as Iago flipped her over so she was on her back and he lightly kissed her. This was becoming all so very fun. It was actually the most fun she had had since she found Abe. She found their little games amusing. She genuinely liked him. More than just his face or his body, she liked Iago. It was a bit odd. She hadn't felt anything like that for anyone since Miu, and even that was short-lived. She was just so relaxed around him. It was a relief. At school she had to watch what she said so she wouldn't lose her "friends", at home if she didn't watch what she said, another World War would start up between her brothers, and in public anything she said reflected off of her family. As much as she hated her parents for how they mostly cut her out of their family and completely cut out Mason, she at least liked being able to hold the title of princess. It helped her out of a lot of sticky situations. She didn't have to worry about any of that around Iago, though, because he at least seemed to not care about any of it. It was just a great relief not having to worry about any of that. Carmy liked it. A lot.

Carmy looked at him before rolling onto her stomach and pushing herself up. She moved so that she was sitting behind him. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders and placed her chin on his shoulder. She placed a soft kiss on his neck under his ear. Search ancient Aztec civilization," she said, letting her lips flutter against the shell of his ear before lightly biting on his ear lobe. That wasn't exactly what Carmy had intended to do when they first got to his place, but being alone with him in his room... well, it just put her a bit in the mood.
