“Yeah I think I’ll wait like you,” she giggles.
“Are you guys sure you’re ok?”
“Yeah I sort of agree with Damon, it is pretty awesome and this way we can train with you. I don’t need to get a vision to know that there’s something special about you all and I think you’re going to need all the friends you can get!” Jett says.
“Thank you so much. I actually have something to tell you but it needs to be done privately.” I say and they watch my curiously. “The Director said she’d get some food sent up to my room and that she’s setting up the room next to ours for you guys.” I explain and they gape at me again.
“Alright guys let’s get going,” Levi starts taking charge.
“Ok but we need to hide our supernatural sides again. No one walks around with them out!” Dash says and I frown.
“I really don’t like the idea of that,” I admit and they all make sound of agreement, “but we don’t need any more extra attention right now so how do we do that?”
“Just picture your human selves,” Dash says, “what I pay attention in class!” He admits when we just look at him.
“Alright let’s do this. I’m freaking hungry!” Kai says.
Nate, Kyle and Hunter all watch us since they’re already as human as they’re going to look although in my opinion they still look more supernatural than any other student I’ve seen.
Chapter Ten
“Was it just me or was that so much harder to go back to just human?” Kai ask’s.
“Like trying to put a square peg into a round whole!” Nate comments.
“And now I feel super uncomfortable like I’m wearing someone else’s clothes or a Halloween costume!” Jax adds.
“Which is weird because I thought it would be the other way around if I’m honest.” Erin says as we walk back towards the woods and the training academy.
“I feel it too. I didn’t realise it but I felt free like I was breathing properly for the first time in my life and now I feel even more trapped than I ever have.” I say and all of them agree.
Its weird to feel so uncomfortable in your own skin. I absolutely hate having my supernatural side locked down. I wasn’t entirely sure that my hair and eyes would go back to normal. The guys assure me that I have my usual dark hair and grey eyes. Erin managed to do the same and we look normal again.
Except not.
None of them look like them to me now. I don’t like it.
“How about when it’s just us and we’re in our rooms we drop the human façade and just be us?” I suggest.
“Best idea you’ve had, Darling!” Levi grins threading his fingers through mine.
“I absolutely can get on board with that!” Erin agrees.
“Thank fuck!” Kai and Damon say together before chuckling.
It doesn’t take us long to get back to the main building but somehow we end up coming out of the woods in a completely different area than we went in. Fortunately Dash knows where we are and we’re back at the castle in no time.
“Do you think the Director is going to cause shit?” Kyle asks as we walk up the main staircase.
“Oh yeah definitely,” Mav answers, “but not about this particularthing. She can’t. At its simplest form you are all supernaturals now and supernaturals need to be trained!” He shrugs sounding logical.
“I don’t think she’s going to make it easy for any of us though!” I add.
“Definitely not.” Levi agrees.
“We’ve got this though. Especially since we’re all together now.” Jett says and I smile.
We really are lucky to have friends like these and I’m glad that according to the goddess we’re going to be friends for a long time yet. I have a feeling that over our lifetimes we’re going to need all the truly good friends we can get.
