My Secret, My Bully, My Mates by Miss L

I look around at my friends, waiting for anyone to answer. None of them look ashamed though. I narrow my eyes at all of them and settle on Oliver. He may be angry with me, but he has never beaten around the bush.

“Talk.”

He takes a deep breath and rolls his eyes back at me. “Fine. They meet with us and run the full, original, patrol loop, then are in the gym for an hour doing bag work, with no break, then head to morning training and must be in the front near the trainers working full out the whole time. It’s not really an insult to you, it’s actually an insult to them, because they can’t do it and it was your everyday normal.” He shrugs a shoulder.

“Oh sh*t! How long does it take you to run the border?” Lil asks.

“If you’re not actually running a patrol and just doing the loop, it’s about an hour if you go full out.”

“And how long is morning training?”

“It’s now two hours, mandatory.” Cam looks serious. “We’ve had too many attacks. All the surrounding packs have, so everyone has increased training and security. We’ll show you in the morning.”

I nod. “Well, in that case I had better eat up, I’m going to need the energy.” I start to get up to go get seconds and Lil and Jena follow suit.

“No wonder you came into Elite camp and didn’t struggle at all. We were all wondering.” Lil says and then looks shocked. “I mean, it’s not a secret, you’re small. It’s deceiving, cause you come out and beast mode everyone.” Lil says as we walk back towards the kitchen.

I see Kevin out of the corner of my eye start to move like he is going to stand and I know he’s going to be like a five year old and try to take our seats.

“We’ll be right back, I need seconds so I can carbo load for training in the morning.” I look right at him and then my dad, who has a curious look on his face, and head in.
