He gave me that dad look that said I was really close to crossing some line, but I also wasn’t too far
off the mark of annoying situations. Which means one of the twins was probably going to have to
deal with Kaley in their group and my brother probably got Jeanie in his. I’m going to have to ask
Sierra about that. I can’t believe they are putting our packin danger just to try and spend time with
the guys. Don’t they know how serious this actually is?
“At least you know you are paired up with the literal best. Skylar has beaten out all the guys in every
test we have done so far, so Cunningham wasn’t wrong. We still have time, quite a bit actually, so
you are going to have to figure out how to suck it up today, because we are in the middle of a shift
and can’t take you back. None of us can be out here on our own, not even me. We always team up
just in case. I will mention to the Delta, who is coordinating the rotations, of your misinformation.
With that he turned around and continued jogging. I guess it was a good enough answer for her,
she didn ‘t bring it up the rest of the time.
That was the second most torturous experience Of my life. Marnie even kind of tried, and it was
terrible. She stopped complaining after Gamma Brett told her to suck it up, but she progressively
got slower as the time went on and Gamma Brett had to call for another team to come in early to
pickup the slack. I was actually embarrassed that, as a team, we couldn’t get her to move faster
without literally carrying her the whole time. And that was never going to happen.
I headed straight to the Beta house after to take a quick shower and get to school. I know Luna Ava
said not to be alone, but the walk to and from patrol was pleasantly quiet and drama free. I walked
up to my house and Sam was on my porch, just casually waiting. At least the scowl was gone,
hopefully meaning that he was able to spend some quality time with Sierra and therefore less angry
and short tempered. He stood when he noticed me, walked straight over and gave me a huge hug,
locking my arms to my sides.
“I’m sorry, I didn ‘t know how bad it was here for you. Don’t be mad at Sierra for telling me, she
needed to vent as much as I did. I won ‘t stop you from leaving or tell you you can’t go. You’re not
wrong, we all get to come and go as we please and you feel stuck and we made you feel more
trapped. You do make us better though and we are afraid you won’t ever come home once you get
away. He word vomited all over me. Then as an afterthought asked, “How was your training?” He
gave me a knowing look before letting a huge smile break out over his face.
“It sucked as much as you think it did. What happened? How did they weasel their way into
rotations? Who got stuckwith the other two?” There was no need to specify who we were talking
about.
“Sierra got Jeanie and I got Kaley. Neither were happy with the pairings and I’m sure my dad will
hear about it from my uncle. But my uncle also can ‘t come right out and say he’s trying to force
Kaley on Cam and Kota, even though everyone sees that’s what he’s doing. My dad isn’t stupid and
this is actually a serious situation that my uncle thinks is a game he can use to play matchmaker by
forced proximity.”
