Hidden Flame: Bound to the Triplet Dragon Kings

**Avery**

After my beach hang-out with Cassius, I fell asleep on the long drive home from the burger joint. I don’t remember

getting into my bed, so he must have put me there. I stretched as I woke up from a blissful sleep. I have never slept that well either. Maybe, I need to get out into the sun more. I began my morning routine. When I came out of my bathroom

there was a knock at my door, but when I opened it there was only a box with a note. The note read; ‘Put me on. It will

make sense after school.’ It was signed by Conner. Well, it looks like Conner is going to be my babysitter later during our

non-date. The silly concept makes me laugh, but it feels good to have friends. I put on the Xbox T-shirt that had some weird characters on it around the logo and jeans. I put my hair in low pigtails and apply some lipgloss. I slide on my

sneakers and head to the kitchen.

As the days prior, the Trio is waiting for me. I sigh because this is starting to feel like a family. I decided to show them how

to make breakfast burritos. At least when they find their mates, they can cook a few things for her even if it is just

breakfast food. After we ate, Conner drove me to school. Once he parked, I motioned for him to get out first but he

shook his head. He made me wait until he opened my door. He walked into the school with me too. I wonder if

something happened while I was at the beach or is he starting the non-date now?

To my astonishment, my day flew by in a blur. I don’t remember seeing the Hoity Hags once. If I did, I must not have let it

bother me. I am proud of myself too. Each of the Trio worked with me during our classes together. It has been such a

good day. Conner was waiting for me outside of Mrs. Moore’s class. Clint looked a bit sad when I told him bye. This isn’t
