Romulus was the first to jump off of one of the carriages, even though they were still moving towards the school. He looked up at the brilliantly tall castle and sighed in amazement. Although he had grown up right out the gates and down the hill in Alba Circeii, and had had some good (and bad) adventures up at the school and the Impermissus Forest around it, the majestic stone and buzzing magic in the air was still enough to nearly take his breath away.
Running his fingers through his midnight-colored hair, he ran from the gates to catch up with the carriages that were starting to drop students off at the door.

Laurette got out of one of the carrages. Without meaning to she had bumped right into whom she knew to be a werewolf from the minute she bumped into him. She sighed. She had to admit he was cute..... "S-sorry." she said being sure to look away not wanting her fangs to show or anything.

"Whoa," Romulus said. He caught her by the arms to make sure she didn't fall. "Careful there. No problem, I probably shouldn't have jumped off the carriage waaay back at the gates. My fault." He smiled at her warmly. "No harm done, really. I'm Romulus by the way. Romulus Giles." He held out his hand for her to shake.

She smiled at him and shook his hand. "I'm Laurette Jesper." she said. "I should have watched what I was doing."

"'S'all right," Romulus said, still smiling. "Laurette, hm? Interesting name, not one you hear everyday..." He once again looked up at the castle and sighed. "I can't believe I'm finally here... Here as in welcome and not trespassing that is," he said with a chuckle.

She giggled. "What do you mean?" Laurette liked him but yet was still a bit fearfull.

Romulus grinned mischeivously. "I was born and raised down in Alba Circeii," he explained. "I was and still am a devilish little thing that never listens to his parents no matter what they say. Now when I was told to stay away from the castle because it was supposedly cursed, I rushed up here and fell in love with the serenity and peacefulness, where my brother, who was one at the time I first came up here, wasn't screaming his bloody head off for one reason or another. So I frequently came back, but got caught a couple times by the Headmistress when she came to work on it and said I was trespassing. I don't think she ever would have turned me in, but sometimes she seemed serious enough that I'd run back to my house pretty quick." He chuckled again.

Laurette chuckled. "I grew up in France with a ton of sisters so my life isn't exactly charming." she said.

"Sisters, hm, fun," he said somewhat sarcastically. "I just have the one brother, he's nine now, and practically god-worships me..." He shook his head slightly. "It gets annoying sometimes, because even though he's followed me around since he could walk, he's somehow ended up being the exact opposite of me, not even a little bit of mischeviousness in the kid, but hey, I tried."

"I'm the exact opposite of what my family expects of me so I'm sure your brother and I could relate." Laurette said.

Romulus laughed, and his gray eyes seemed to sparkle with a little bit of mischeif. "Ah, Laurettte, you misunderstand," he said. "My brother is everything the rest of my family could have asked for in a son... Intelligent, well-behaving, mama's boy... Now me, I'm the black sheep you could say... No one knows how I became the way I am, but I could care less... Maybe I was switched at birth." He shrugged as if it didn't matter.

"I'm the black sheep of my family. They have all told me I'm better off dead then well with them." Laurette said. She had almost let it slip that she was a Vampire. "They all hate me. Say I'm not like them at all. Just because of my darn birthday being valentines day."

Romulus frowned and got a very serious tone to his voice, that before might have seemed impossible for him to accomplish. "Well, that's not right," he said. "I might drive my family nuts on a regular basis, but they still love me, and not a one of them would ever wish me dead. But that's because of the way I act, not my birthdate. Why on earth would it matter that your birthday is on Valentine's Day?" he wondered aloud. "No offense, but your family doesn't seem like much of one at all."

"It's not much of one really. " Laurette sighed. She knew if she told him that she was a vampire since he was a werewolf he would kill her. Especially since well thats just what happened to them. They where usually killed or hurt.

Romulus looked over at her and could sense her... sadness? Disappointment? Hurt? A mixture of the three? He couldn't tell for sure, but he could sense something that made him a little uncomfortable. It's these lupine senses, dammit, he cursed in his head. "Listen, I'm sorry if I brought up a conversation that hurts you... I honestly didn't mean anything by it." He reached over and pulled her into a comforting hug.
Although he ignored it, a charm hidden underneath his shirt grew suddenly warm at contact with Laurette.
