The Weird Kid (BXB)

TWELVE

Finnick

After an emotional lunch Cain and I walked back into the school. We pulled out schedules out of our bags and checked them over. Seeing as we both left after lunch we didn't know if we had any classes together after lunch but we did.

We had all of our classes together after lunch except for last period.

For fifth period we had world history. My least favorite class ever. Its so damn boring, it literally worsens my depression in a matter of fifty minutes.

Cain and I walked into the class but there were no seats next to each other. Cain looked at me and trudged to the back of the class whispering something in a guys ear.

The guy looked at Cain and nodded and looked at me, he smiled before picking up his belongings and moving to a different seat. As I walked past he smiled and bowed his head.

"What was that?" I ask

"He's a member of my pack." He whispers

"Oh." I say

Cain smiles.

"What'd you think? That I threatened him?"

"Do you want me to answer that truthfully?" I ask

"Hey! I'm not that bad." He says

"Your getting close to me was stealing my apple, and teasing me." I say

"I— fair enough." He shrugs

I shake my head at him.

"I'll take you home after school." He says

"You don't have to—"

"You're not walking home by yourself." He interrupts

I blush.

"O-Ok." I say

He smiles and faces the front of the class.

Mindlessly, I slip my hand in his, playing with his rings. I liked the feeling of his and in mine, it was rough and calloused yet so soft and gentle.

I saw little white lines on his hands, presumably scars from over the years. My eyes trailed up his arms, they were mostly covered by his sleeves but from what I could see they were toned and also littered with scars.

Some of the scars were more visible than others, either darkened or risen.

"What are these from?" I ask quietly

He looks down at me.

"Oh- uh training and stuff." He answers

"Training?"

"Werewolf stuff." He says looking back to the front of the class room

I look at the side of his face, his expression now very tense.

"Hey," I say trying to get his attention
