Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

37-My Green-Eyed Savior

“Ah! That was fun,” Lazlo commented after he had taken a shower. The strong wind was howling outside the window and pretty much everybody was getting ready to hide from the hurricane now.

The academy had a basement where we were all supposed to meet up once the hurricane hits. It was for the safety of the students just in case a monster or unlikely creature comes along with the hurricane and instead of passing by, it stays.

I hadn’t been able to comment about the race after they have all reached back. Thiago came last, by that I mean, he was the last one to enter the room. He never made it to the top of the mountain.

He rushed into the bathroom the instant he arrived. Maynard and Lazlo had finished taking showers by then.

“I would have won if,” Maynard grunted as he shook his head.

“Why does it matter who gets to take her first? I mean, it is not like first or last will change anything,” Lazlo raised a good point but I knew why Maynard and Thiago were fighting over the first chance. Whoever gets to take me to their pack first would not drop -me off at the other’s pack.

“We should hurry up though. The hurricane will hit us any time from now,” Lazlo peeked outside the window and commented about the situation. It was indeed true that things were going downhill pretty quickly. The weather had turned worse in the last few minutes.

Maynard and Lazlo grabbed their blankets and other necessaries but the moment they reached the door, they turned around and stared at me in confusion.

“You aren’t coming?” Lazlo asked while Maynard seemed to know why I wasn’t joining them.

“I will wait, I have to take a shower too,” I lied because Maynard’s angry glare was scaring me.

“In the middle of a crisis?” Lazlo raised his brow and slightly turned his body around to share a little stare with Maynard.

“Thiago will come by himself. Get your stuff, we are heading down,” Maynard’s voice was deep and filled with anger when he asked me to don’t resist.

“Fine, go ahead. I will join you in a minute,” I rolled my eyes once I didn’t like him trying to control me. I would join them when I want to.

“Let her stay, she will come eventually,” Lazlo didn’t sound too happy with-the way I was acting. I don’t understand what was bothering them so much because prior to Thiago showing his affection, none of them seemed to be interested in me.
