Getting Close To The Gangleader

Chapter 10

It's currently been a week since Zander and me have been going out. He said a kiss wasn't enough so he went all out and the next day he took me out. He drove me out to a flower field and he had a picnic set up on the ground. He made all the food himself and we had a good time. At the end of the meal he asked me out and I said yes. No one had ever done anything like that for me and it made me feel very good and special.

I'm on my way to train with Aaron right now and no one seems to be up yet. I head out my room and start to walk to the training room when I hear footsteps. I look behind me but see no one.

"Whoever is there better come out...before I punch you in the face."

No one came out so I just pushed it away as my mind playing tricks on me. I kept walking to the gym and when I got there Aaron was sitting on the ground. He sees me walk in and stands up. He opens up his arms and I run to him. He hugs me tightly and gives me a kiss on the forehead.

"It feels like forever since the last time we hung out." I say as we stand there, still hugging.

"It really has. You know what why don't we go out this afternoon. Just you and me."

"We should. Just let me tell Gabriel we're going out then."

I look up at Aaron, still in his arms when someone coughs. I look behind me and see Zander in the doorway with his arms crossed in front of his chest and a small frown on his face. I unwrap myself from Aaron's hold and kiss him on the cheek before going over to Zander. He wraps his arms around me and pulls me to him. He kisses me before smacking my ass and walking away. I look at him with a small frown before turning to face Aaron.

"He's really possessive. What do you think he'll say when you tell him we're spending the day together?"

"It doesn't matter. I'm going with you whether he likes it or not. I'm not gonna let him control my life."

"This is why we're friends."

"Alright lets start training."

We get into position and start throwing punches at each other seeing who lasts longer.

I just got out the shower and wrap a towel around me. I start looking for my clothes and put them on. I wince when I put my shirt on, when I lift it up I see a bruise starting to form on the side of my stomach. I brush my hand over it and wince slightly as I feel pain. I dry my hair and just tie it up into a ponytail not wanting to do anything with it. I exit my room and head over to Gabriel's. I knock on the door and go in only when I hear him tell me it's okay.

"Hey. I'm gonna go out with Aaron. Just the two of us today but I promise it'll be the three of us next time okay?"

"Yeah it's okay. I was going to play with Lizabelle anyway. I like having her here. I finally get to play with someone that's my age."

"Yeah. Just don't get too attached. Remember that they're not going to be with us forever."

"Why not?"

"Because they don't belong here. They need to get back to their lives once everything is clear and they're safe to go back home."

"Okay."

"I'll be back soon. Just call me if you need anything okay?"

He nods and I head out. I look back at him once more and close his door. When I look back I see Zander with a frown on his face.

"What do you mean we don't belong here? And about us moving on with our lives?"

"I'm just stating facts. You don't belong in this life Zander. You nor your sister are safe but once we get rid of the enemy you guys will go live like you used to."
