"Line up!"

Everyone stopped talking and followed Liam's order. I was watching everyone from my lawn chair. My arms were folded behind my head, feet crossed at the ankles, my eyes following every ones movement. I had talked Liam into dragging one for me out here. We were all backyard, on a Sunday morning. I think its a little early for training, but I won't complain. I will try not to complain.

"Okay gang, since today happens to be Sunday, we will switch everything up so everyone can train together. But first," Liam looked over at me, smirking. "The bet."

I sat up straight on my chair, narrowing my eyes on him. Its on.

There were excited murmurs from the whole group, probably talking about how they're team was going to win.

The teams were split up, my team on the left, Liam's on the right. I had reluctantly got off from my chair and went over to my team. We made a big tight circle, our arms over each others' shoulder.

"Okay, my minions," I started, earning chuckles and eye rolls from the team. "Remember what I have taught you guys. Even though this isn't the real battle, I want you to put all your efforts into it. I will be observing you from here. Sundays is really a big test on what you know. This test will help us with what we need to do to improve you guys. The best fighters will help the weakling. And those weakling should not be ashamed of what they can't do."

From behind, I heard Tyler blow a whistle. The match has finally begun.

I turned back around to my team, placing my fist in the middle. "Team number one."

"Team number one!!" They cheered back, copying my moves.

Both the teams met in the middle. Everyone was facing their opponent for this round. Tyler blew the whistle, my team and Liam's team clashing in the middle. Liam and I were off to the side, shouting from the sidelines.

"Do your best!"

"Don't you dare let me down!"

"Show em' what you're made of!'

"Don't make me lose against your alpha!"

"Allen! He stole your plate of bacon and eggs this morning!"

I looked over at Liam, giving him a look.

He grinned, "Allen has a big appetite for food, especially Sabeths breakfast. Unfortunately for him, he didn't get some this morning because somebody took them. So now, he is grumpy. And he is sort of lacking the fighting abilities."

That douche is up to something. Of course everyone knows that Allen loves his breakfast, even I know that. "And you stole his breakfast." I told him.

"Shh!" He covered my mouth with his large hands. "Don't let him hear you. And I wouldn't say that I stole it. Just took it from him without knowing."

'Thats the same as stealing, you dolt.'

He rolled his eyes, still not removing his hands from my mouth.

And so I licked his hand. He let out a girlie shriek, wiping his hands on my white t-shirt. I laughed and laughed at him until I was rolling on the ground with an aching tummy. That was just one of the most embarrassing moments for him. The alpha shrieking like a girl in front of his pack.

Some of the team members had stopped and looked at what was going on. The smart ones, mostly my team, took that advantage to beat their opponent.

I was still lying on the floor, sobbering up from the laughter. Liam's face was flushed with embarrassment. Aw, now I feel bad for putting him in that situation. Then again, he was the one who shrieked. And for putting his hands over my mouth.
