I should be your Beta, not your Mate

7 - Vision

Nothing really happened anymore in the evening even though I expected they would pounce at me with questions. We only went shopping together to fill the cabinets with food and later Emi, Genevieve and Zack cooked for the group.

Still, they asked if I was okay because of everything that I couldn't really agree on. However, Cassian seemed like he wanted to do his best, so it wasn't too uncomfortable between us.

Excited, Leandra and Emily skipped in front of our sluggish group. We all had a hard time getting up in the mornings – in particular, Cameron and Naika.

For the first few hours one should stay away from both of them. If not, the death sentences would already be laid upon one.

Above that also came the fact that all of them had a bad jet lag. Only the others kept it pretty much hidden.

»I can see the school already!« Leandra yelled and immediately Cameron and Naika growled at her.

Elli texted me in the morning if I wanted to drive with Cassian and Caleb, but I refused with the words, that my friends would lay a fire or get into some kind of accident. And yes, I assumed the worst from them.

The eleven could even start the apocalypse, I would bet my life on that.

One time I stayed at the Ramsay house because I was sick when the school called. They told May and Maxim that their children and friends stole a llama on their way to school and brought it with them onto the school grounds.

Or one time in winter they felt cold on their way to school. They took a break and started a campfire.

In short, they couldn't be left alone – although there were some rational people in our group.

Racy, both girls stormed to the school grounds and got stared at – just as expected. And we others got eyed shortly after the two whirlwinds.

»Isn't that the new guy? And who are the others? New students too?«

Immediately the whispers started again. What did I expect with so many new faces?

»They all look kind of hot, I mean the guys.«

»But the new guy isn't that new!«

»What?«

»Don't you know already? That's Kyran.«

»Wait, Kyran? As in, the gay vomit Kyran?«

»Yes! That Kyran!«

»Oh, wow.«

»Weren't there so many rumors about him? He was popular before he turned into a loser. Still, he is pretty much a legend at our school.«

»Yeah, I heard of some of the rumors.«

»You even heard of the one that he got thrown out of the swimming team because he tried to do something to one of the swimmers in the communal showers? As I heard he totally touched the poor guy and something like that. He wanted to force himself on the other guy. How horny can you be to do that?«

»Seriously? Disgusting piece of shit!«

»And he also got thrown out of the band because he behaved like a I-am-the-best-and-you-are-nothing. Like he said, only he has talent and everyone else just serves him.«

»Well, I heard, he got thrown out because he got fucked by a guy in the music room. And after that he behaved like nothing ever happened but in a disgusting ironic way. Such guys just disgust me.«

»Where did you hear all of that again? I mean, it must be true if everyone on the school know about it.«

»Cassian Walker. The handsome guy from the senior year. Their families are befriended, and he is also friends with the younger brother of Kyran. But he stopped talking about that stuff after Kyran ran away. Such a coward. First vomits on the floor and then runs away.«
