Chapter 38: Cassandra
"Just come on," Kyler said. "You too, teammate," he told Nicolette.
We followed the three guys from the classroom and down the hall. They kept looking back and in the other rooms, making me paranoid. They talked to each other a lot when I wasn't around, so it made me worry a bit. I thought maybe there would come a day when they all four might want me at the same time. Sometimes I wondered how the hell I would manage that.
"We're not going to practice a mock battle," I said. "Are we?"
"Nope," Dash said and held a finger up to his lips.
Nicolette stopped. "This is bullshit. We're supposed to be working on a battle. I'm not flunking the class because you assholes are brushing off an assignment."
I shrugged. "I have no idea what's going on."
"Right," she said and followed the guys when they continued down the hall. I followed reluctantly.
