Chapter 30: Tempest

"Turning in circles , been caught in a stasis
The ancient arrival cut to the end  I'd like to
Be taken apart from the inside then spit      through the cycle right
to the end '.— Deftones

" what is going on with you two". Carson asked as me and Finn ate our slices of pizza . We both eyed each other before responding

" nothing" we said simultaneously the others still didn't know about the whole Mariah situation or why Finn broke up with her. It wasn't that I didn't trust the others of course I did . It's just the less people that know for now the better. We don't know who's working with who or who's parent is working with who . So I didn't want to put her in danger , I'd hate to think they'd use her to get to me or the rest of the line but considering the fact we're down two kings and I'm short an uncle I don't put anything past these extremists .

" nah I'm not buying  it you two have been acting real secretive lately ... what did one of you two find a mate or something ". Thomas said I felt my throat dry and let out a cough.

" no man cmon bad enough I got to shift tonight what's with the 3rd degree". I responded

" crazy that you still can't control the shift , Finn got control after like two moons". Thomas said

" how bout you talk when you actually turn". I responded annoyed

" not my fault my birthdays late ". Thomas responded

" besides we can't all be the prodigy son": Carson said placing a hand on Finn's shoulder.
I often wondered what as in Finn's DNA that made him so good at everything . Effortlessly good at everything at that. Having to turn was becoming annoyingly inconvenient. Today would mark a month since the incident in the woods with Mariah . Some days it was all I could think about, what could've happened if she had a waited a day and I wasn't there, she stumbled around drunk in the woods in emotional duress . Id managed to snag the pills from her and toss them into the darkness surrounding the clearing.

Finn still had no idea, I couldn't bring myself to  tell him , him being himself he would've blamed himself, I figured it's best to just keep that night to myself . It was hard seeing her everyday in school with that guy, resisting the urge to bash his head into the hall lockers was becoming almost too hard to resist . Anything I knew about her I had gathered from Finn . She seemed sweet , smart , understanding and incredibly down to earth . She had an apparent obsession with iced coffee . Finn had expressed to me that she shot that shit up like it was heroine .she loved reading , Finn said she was always reading something new .

I wasn't muchr of a reader in fact, I only ever read if I had to. I hadn't ever picked up a novel of my own free will . Finn had already expressed in great detail to me what her opinion of me is.

" well she thinks that you lack emotional and actual intelligence , that your given everything and you never had to work for it , that your an asshole, she thinks that no one would even like you do to your horrible personality if you weren't rich , attractive , or the Mayors son . She also once said
" the world would be a much better place without mason mccann's in it ". I - "

" ok I get it she dosn't like me" I said cutting him off

" I think " dosn't like " is an understatement " Finn said

" so what do I gotta do  to get her to like me". I asked

" honestly I don't know , I just apologized to her and was nice to her the only reason. We spoke at all was because of the project . I'm pretty sure she only forgave me because I wasn't the one actually making fun of her unlike you". Finn said
