The one who won't admit
"Ok so who am I with?" I ask as we turn towards the weapons on wall for all out combat.
"Ummm…Well Kaiden has no one!" Declan finishes quickly and ducks his head as Kaiden gives him an ice dagger like stare.
"I thought we were partners today! You said so on the way down here!" Kaiden says through his teeth, "Plus you guys usually JUMP at the chance to fight with Alex!" He finished rather bitterly in Alex's opinion. Did she do something wrong? "Why TODAY of all days!"
"Well you are the only one other then Brandon to fight Alex with a sword and not hurt her so… we thought it would be better for—" Nick was interrupted by a startlingly loud and angry voice. My voice.
"You think I can't look after myself and I'm just that helpless girl on the first day of Combat? Is that really what you think of me? Like I'm some sort of hurt animal who needs to put out of her misery?!" I finish quietly with tears in my eyes. They all look at their feet, even Kaiden! Oh they would pay.
"STOP LOUNGING AROUND IN MOTHERS CLUB AND PAIR UP!" Karter yells from the other side of the room. By the look on his face, he clearly heard the whole conversation and that just made it worse. The boys all grab a sword. When I don't they look at me weirdly except for Kaiden and Declan. We each head over to opposite sides of the room and get ready. I turn to Kaiden who clearly hadn't gotten over his anger. And he wasn't the only one.
