Capítulo XV- Guarida Escondida
The school day had just finished and Chase bet that he could defeat Adam in an arm wrestle match. Adam did lunges preparing himself as Chase was ready beside the circle bench in the main hall. Leo said, "Chase, there's no way you can beat Adam arm-wrestling. It'd be like a chicken wrestling an alligator. All we hear is a cock-a-doodle crunch."
"He's right, bro. Your spaghetti arms are no match for these meatballs," Adam kissed his biceps five times doing lunges.
"Hey," Chase nonchalantly said, "When you're done kissing your girlfriends, let's do this." Adam and Chase leaped on the bench, putting their elbows on it.
Bree backed away, "Better back up, Leo and Patience. You're in the splatter zone." Chase rolled his eyes as Bree smugly grinned.
Leo stated the rules, "Okay, I want a clean match. No whining, screaming, crying, or tap-outs. I'm looking at you, Chase." Chase gave him a bored look. "Three, two, one, go!"
Chase licked his hand, clasped it with Adam who groaned, and pinned it to the flat surface. Bree and Leo shared looks of disgust, Patience merely laughed. Chase hopped off the bench, while Adam grimaced wiping his hand on Bree's shirt, "Hey! No fair! He licked his hand!"
"Exactly. Clever beats strong any day," Chase bubbled, pointing at Adam.
Leo raised Chase's hand, "Chase wins. Wait, which hand did you lick?"
"That one," he smiled, pointing at it.
Leo dropped his hand wiping it on Chase's shirt. Patience rose Chase's other hand, "Chase wins!" The two smiled at the group. She dropped their hands back to their sides.
"Hey guys, how's it going?" Marcus greeted coming down the stairs.
Patience's smile collapsed but quickly picked it up again. She had managed to avoid Marcus the past few days. Unfortunately, her luck had run out today. "Ooh, bundle up, everyone. It just got partly creepy with a hundred percent chance of annoying," Leo deadpanned.
Adam asked, "Oof. Am I gonna need my umbrella for that?"
"So, you guys wanna hang out at my house after school?" Marcus asked. "We just got a sick new flat screen."
Leo forced a smile, "Is it as sick as you make me? 'Cause, that'd be pretty sick."
"We'd love to hang out today," answered Chase.
Leo placed an arm on Chase's shoulder, "Chase is too polite to say it, so I'll say it for him. You're a lunatic, and we're leaving." Adam, Bree, and Chase groaned, complaining to Leo. He pushed them to go outside, "Yeah, and we're walking. Go. Go on. Go. Out." Patience stayed behind with Leo. He faced Marcus, "Nice try. See you later, captain eyebrow."
