Chapter 1-Basketball Season

"Ok good game guys! Keep it up." Dripping with sweat, a team of boys jogged over to the sidelines for timeout strategy planning. It was the beginning of basketball season for the boys and they were in the middle of their first game of the season. "Ok guys, we need to keep up the score. Do not, I repeat do not, Let them score another basket." The team captain commanded. " Tosa High is where we go to school...We have the next half of the game to score. We have to win this to start out strong. We have time. Now let's do this, Tigers on three." The boys put their sweaty warm fists in and they cheered themselves to victory that night. When the victory was taken by the Tosa Tigers the players all jogged into the locker room. They were Rowdy and loud. "ok ok let's settle down," The coach said. "we all owe a big thanks to Sebastian for leading us into a great start to the season." the guys cheered and the coach continued. "Let's play awesome again next Thursday alright?!" The coach said yelling to the team getting pumped once again. We play East Middleton High." The boys cheered then got washed up and they started leaving.
   Yes the team captain was none other than the most liked student at school. He had everything, the car, the looks, and the brains. His name was Sebastian Michaelis. The team chose him to be on their team his freshmen year because he had good grades and a good record for sports. Now he was a junior in high school and loving every bit of it. He did not have a girlfriend though. He liked to think of him as a special independent, and he was ok with that. He packed up to leave. He was usually the last one out for the night. He made the long slow trek to his car on the otherside of the parking lot. It was silent around the back of the school. He looked around cautiously. He did not mind it and walked on. When he got to his car, he unlocked and opened the trunk, and threw his bag in the back with little effort since he was already too tired from the game. He dropped in the front seat and shut the door and turned on the ignition. He started to drive home. As he drew nearer to his house he saw a dark tall figure go inside the next house down from him. It was his neighbor's kid. They went to school together but never made time for a small chat. They were polar opposites, Sebastian the kind and popular, and then the other kid, the shy and the introvert. What they did not know is they would get to be the best of friends soon.
   When Sebastian parked his car and turned it off, he walked inside with his book bag. "hey mom I am home." He said walking past the kitchen picking up and orange on the way.
"hey there he is! I heard about the win! Great job, I know you guys work hard out out there doing what you love!" his mom said.
"Where's Jake and Tyler?" Sebastian asked with a yawn, giving his mother a smile and a side hug.
"oh they are up in their room. Jake is doing homework and Tyler is working on a project of his."
Tyler was the cool, laid back, good morals kind of guy. He was in college and came home for the weekend. He had no classes on Friday since his week was filled with them. He liked it like that. He would work hard during the week then he would rest and relax Friday through Sunday. He adjusted to it quickly which was surprising to him.
With that Sebastian made his way upstairs. "Ty?" He spoke as he made his way up the rest of the stairs.
"I'm in here!" A voice came from the back room of his bedroom. Tyler's room had a big closet but because they all shared one big hall closet he did not need his so he converted it into a work room. It was his private space.
"Hey Tyler...I'm home." Sebastian stood at the door leaning against the white stained door frame.
"hey Seb. How was the game?" Tyler said revealing himself from the depths of the back room covered in sawdust and paint. He was also sweaty for the lights necessary to carry out a task were bright and released a lot of heat. There was one air vent but no windows. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and opened his arm invitingly. Sebastian hugged him for he did not care because he was sweaty too.  
"Congrats Seb! I heard about the big game." Ty said patting his little brother on the back before hugging him tighter. He let go and they both exchanged small smiles. Tyler whipped the sweat from his forehead on to a hankie he took out of his pocket.  He was done for the night and was about to get cleaned up for the night. He had finished his classes for the semester and he went home for vacation to spend time on his projects and on the more important things in life, his family. He loved each and everyone of them.  
"well I should get cleaned up, it is late..." Tyler said looking over at the small alarm clock on his nightstand. The small glowing numbers read, 11:30 PM. Tyler let out a small yawn as he stretched and headed for the bathroom with his boxers and loose T-shirt. He gave Sebastian a pat on the head as he passed by. Sebastian fixed his hair and then waited for the bathroom. He walked to his room down the hall past the bathroom and the extra living space they called the game room. He plopped down on his futon in his room and turned on the T.V to watch the last of his favorite basketball team play in the 3rd quarter.  He fell asleep on the futon and the remote on the floor just below his hand hanging off of the couch. He was still in his jersey and shorts. The T.V was still on and two full shows had past.

The next morning, Sebastian woke up in his own bed and the T.V had been turned off. He did not seem to wonder. Sebastian got out of bed slowly and went down stairs. He sat down to his already prepared breakfast of scrambled eggs and toast. He ate quickly and headed out the door and got in the car and drove off to school. He parked and went in. By the student body's gestures and moods he could tell it was going to be along week ahead. He had all the smart classes and he had at least a quiz in three classes every other week. He got through the day slowly and then headed to basketball practice. He was the only one in the locker room which was strange. The coach saw him going in and stopped him at the door.
"hey Sebastian there will be no practice today." He said.
"thanks coach. I will just shoot some baskets and then go home then." Sebastian said setting his stuff down in the locker.
He grabbed a ball and threw it up and caught it a couple of times before heading slowly out to the empty court. As the school emptied out, he enjoyed only the sound of his basketball and his shoes making the familiar squeaking noise on the freshly polished wooden floors of the gymnasium.   That evening he left to go home. As he was leaving he saw the familiar face that he saw entering into the next house down yesterday. He was not new but Sebastian did not know him, he was in only one class with the captain of basketball, and that was English class. Sebastian watched as the handsome fellow grabbed his book bag as a little girl came running up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck giggling. He took her hand and they walked away towards the door. Sebastian looked at the time on his wrist watch and it read 4:50 pm. He then packed up and went home. On the drive home he saw the school mate walking with the girl still holding hands. "Do you want a ride?" I pull up and roll down the window. He looked over with no expression. The student shook his head and walked on. "come on Laura, we have to get home." With that he walked off with the girl. Sebastian sat there in the car watching. It was awfully strange to reject a car ride from a fellow student. He blinked bringing him out of deep thought and shifted in drive and drove slowly to his house.
So sorry this is taking so long >_< but I was writing it and I have a heavy load for me at school but I do work on it bit by bit! So here is Chapter 1 of Broken Lies!

Remember they are high school students. They are still demons but the earls has not happened yet.


Sebastian Michaelis belongs to Yana Toboso

This should be under Fan Art--> Fan Fiction. This is probably the reason why you've not received many views or comments on it. The way that you've currently categorised it, you're saying that this is original fiction.

You might want to read this again to correct any errors and make sure that it's easy on the eyes. Remember to start a new paragraph when there is a change in speaker, time and place. This is one of the reasons why I found it difficult to follow your story.
