The next day is Friday and when I enter class taking my seat beside Jake he surprisingly turns to me. "Meet me at my locker after school and we'll go to my house to start the project." I nod giving a soft "okay" before turning to face the teacher as she goes on about some of the formulas and equations we'll need for the project. By the end of the day I text my papa letting him know that I'm working on the project before following Cedar and Teddy to the boys lockers. Cedar and Teddy each go to greet their mates with hugs and kisses while I head over to Jake quietly giving polite nods to the younger boys as I pass them. Once I reach Jake he closes his locker and looks at me. "You ready?" I give a little nod. "Yeah I already told my papa I'll be working on the project with you but I have to be home by ten." He gives a little nod then starts walking off with the others I staying towards the back by myself until Ni-ki suddenly shows up at my side with a smile. "Hello hyung." I give him a look of surprise. "Um hi." His smile brightens at me. "Promise you'll take good care of our Jake hyung will you? Keep him safe from that mean nasty Siren Veela?" I'm immediately taken aback but see the actual concern and worry in his eyes making my expression soften. "I'll do my best Ni-ki." He nods and bows before running ahead to mess with Sunoo making a soft smile appear on my face. Once we reach the van it's obvious that not all of us are going to fit so Heeseung and Cedar offer to teleport and so does Jay and Teddy so I end up climbing into the van I having to sit right beside Jake. Once we stop after driving for awhile I can't help but stare in awe at the large mansion like house and get out of the van with the others. Jake gets my attention and motions for me to follow him so I quickly follow him up the stairs to I'm guessing is his room. He throws his backpack down at a desk and takes a seat in the desk chair before pointing to his bed telling me I can sit there. I put my backpack down carefully and take a seat on his bed my nose immediately hit with his really nice scent it way stronger than I'm used to. Swallowing I ignore it and look over a Jake. "We should probably get started and draw out the rollercoaster before building it." He nods pulling out a piece of paper. "That's actually a good idea." I can't help but smile and he motions me to come over and help so I get up and walk over to stand beside him helping him make the rollercoaster on graph paper. Once we finish making the paper version he suddenly clears his throat. "Can you back up a little?" I blink and notice I'm really close to him so I quickly back up with an apology. He turns around in the chair giving a simple "it's fine" before looking at me curiously. "So your a siren right? Was your mom a siren too?" I blink in surprise but decide to answer. "Actually my dad was a siren and some male sirens can get pregnant. My papa's human and was my dads mate and they had me." He looks at me an intrigued look on his face. "That's cool. But why do you use past tense for your dad?" I go quiet for a moment before saying softly. "My dad was killed by hunters last year." He immediately frowns at that. "I'm sorry. I feel bad for asking now." I give a small smile. "It's fine." He suddenly changes the subject. "So tell me more about sirens? There's not much about you guys on the internet." I give him a surprised startled look not expecting to be asked that but give him a little smile. "Well we can use our voices to attract people to us and make them think they're in love with us. But since I'm only half I can't really use my siren voice unless I try really hard and make my body weak or sing and I don't ever do that. Sirens main weaknesses are bronze and while it would burn and kill a full siren it would just make me extremely sick to the point of death." He nods and gives a small smile. "So nothing bronze around you. Good to know." I chuckle a little and nod then check the time and frown. "I need to get home." He nods then gets up and leads me down to the front door after calling the driver. He surprisingly wishes me a goodbye as I leave and my mind immediately goes back to our conversation thinking how it's either he's finally accepting me or he's planning on something bad. Shaking my head I thank the driver when I reach my house and head inside going straight up to bed my mind on Jake and how I think he won't hurt me before I fall asleep.
