Chapter 8. Yep. It is here. At one o' clock. I'm such an asshole.
Cole P.O.V.
The others chose on going in the city after our training. Personally, I didn't want to, but everyone else thought it would be a good idea. Even Sensei said it would be good if we went outside for some time. Nya took some money, as well for Lloyd. Zane, Jay and Kai didn't bring anything. For me, I got my iPod and my headphones.
So, we went to some Chinese restaurant that Nya talked about. After we went at Lloyd's favorite place in Ninjago: some place with comics. Zane wanted to go to the library. Jay really insisted to see a show. Kai and me didn't have any idea for where to go, even if I knew this city like in the bottom of my pocket. So, we stopped doing a picnic outside of Ninjago, but still near the city.
Lloyd and Jay decided to bring some things to play, Nya got the food with Zane and the guys let me and the spiky haired boy to choose the place. We agreed on a spot under a tree beside a little lac.
We sat on the earth, waiting for the others. It was pretty awkward, because we didn't know what to say. I was looking down, he was looking around him, bitting his lips.
"Well... I don't know if I should, but..." Kai started as he caught my attention. "Do you mind if we talk about... Your League? I haven't heard of it, even before my joi-kidnapping from the League of Assassins."
"Well... This League worked on recruting young boys and youngs girls when they are eight to twelve years old."
"Why at this age?"
I did a laugh without joy. "Because it's at this age people can break easily. You imagine? Torturing a child. I've had more the white torture. Adding this to my problems of trust... But I still got some scars from physical torture."
I got up and showed my left leg.
"This one was made because I didn't want to kill my first murder."
I put my wrists in front of him.
"These are from the torture of the beginning, before they formed me."
I turned and put of my shirt to show my back.
"These are because I'd dared to stand up to my mentor. What was the punition? Tada."
I felt fingers touching my back. They were doing it fragilely and with hesitation, like if he should do that or not. Kai noticed by my expression I didn't mind, so he put his hand on one of them. The master of fire then let his finger fall along my scar. I got a freeze, but it last for a few seconds.
"I'm sorry. Even me, it wasn't that bad. I mean, the League of Assassins doesn't use white torture. And I think it is worse than physical torture."
"Don't have pity of me. I hate it. Just, think about now, we're here. Everything's right."
At what I saw over my shoulder, Kai's face darken. I didn't know why, but it was maybe about the League of Assassins.
"I was wondering..." I turned to face Kai when he spoke. "About between us... Is it just friendship or we give them reason?"
"Seriously, Kai, I don't know. I can't even read my feelings. So, it's just all fuzzy."
"I can maybe help you..."
"What are you-"
He cut me off as his face was at ten centimeters at mine. Kai had put his hand on my chest. The spiky haired boy looked at my lips before looking in my eyes. I blushed very hard as I met his amber eyes of his. He closed his eyes and kissed me. At first, I was surprised. Then, I let myself fall into his kiss and closed my eyes too. I put my hand behind his head while the red ninja wrapped his arms around my neck. We took our breath for a second before kissing again. I could feel his warm body on mine. His lips were warm and delicious. I felt his breathing on my face. His arms were squeezing harder around my neck. The thing was, we couldn't enjoy that moment because we heard:
"HA! Here's the proof!"
Lloyd and Jay had arrived, but not Zane and Kai's sister. Jay was grinning, showing all his white teeth. Lloyd, him, was looking at me straight in the eyes. His look was saying "Told ya." He was smiling at us with that smile I just knew so well, his amused smile.
Kai and me were blushing and were turning into tomatos. After all, I couldn't help by smile back at my so-called bro.
"Can't wait to tell Nya what we've seen!"
Well, I did from Cole's point of view this time. And it was a bit different from my first story. But I love how it turns out!
See ya next time
