8 - lost

«good morning, sunshine.» Corey said, kissing Mason who smiled sweetly at him.

«ehy.» he answered, looking back at the main entrance.

«is everything ok?» the chimera asked, taking some books from the locker. Mason shook his head, turning to him and smiling.

«yes, just that Liam hasn't come yet.» the human said.

«I remember that this morning he had to come earlier for training.» Corey informed him.

«oh, then I'll text him telling him to join us in the cafeteria.» the human said then, grabbing Corey's hand and going towards the science classroom.

[...]

Okay. Not that Liam was a cellphone addicted always looking at it every two seconds, but he never let them spend more than two hours before answering his best friend. But four hours had passed and Liam hadn't even read it. He didn't show up at the cafeteria and Mason thought he was late, but then he was starting to worry. 

Was it possible he hadn't had five minutes to check the phone? No. Impossible. 

In the end the bell rang, but not even a word from Liam. He decided to go directly to the field, where he knew he would find the boys for the afternoon training and, if his friend had been there, he would have killed him, or he would have said to Scott to order him to do ten more laps.

When he got there, he approached the small team, which was still arranging the equipment to be able to play «uh, sorry guys, have you seen Liam?» Mason asked, while most of them shook their heads.

«he didn't show up today, not even for this morning training. If you see him tell him that the coach is pissed off.» a guy replied with improbable hair, Mason thought.

So Liam wasn't there. But why hadn't he told him he wasn't coming to school? He always warned him «do you know where I can find Scott?» he asked then, but even to that question he received a negative nod.

«he took the day off.» the boy said, putting his helmet on and grabbing his stick from the bench.

«okay, thank you anyway.» Mason replied and then headed for the parking lot. He met Corey halfway, evidently looking for him.

«where were you?» his boyfriend asked him.

«looking for Liam. He didn't show up at school today, nor did Scott. He apparently took a day off.» the human explained.

«and what's so strange about that?» the chimera asked.

«nothing, other than the fact that Liam always warns me if he doesn't come.» the one replied with a sigh.

«Mason, what's up?» said Corey, peering at him.

«there is something I don't understand. I mean, he didn't answer my texts and I tried calling him four times. Do you know if the boys had training with Derek again today?»

«yes. Stiles was complaining about it because he wanted to go don't know where with Scott, but Derek said they should have been training all week.» the chimera explained.

«let's check in the preserve, so if Liam is there I can punch him.» the human snapped, making the boy, who nodded, chuckle, grabbing the car keys.

[...]

«guys, we said you didn't have to be there during training.» an exasperated Scott said, looking at his best friend and Lydia, who were both sitting on the hood of Stiles' Jeep.

«we were bored.» answered the banshee.

«I'm surprised they obeyed for more than a month.» Derek snorted with a frown.
