(Y/N)'s pov


Cinder: "What the fuck was all that about?" I continued looking straight ahead, trying my best to control my smug smirk. 

(Y/N): "What are you talking about?" I continued trying to feign ignorance to the best of my ability. 

Cinder: "You know exactly what the fuck I'm talking about!" I looked at her and shrugged, barely controlling my laughter as I saw the look on her face. "You just kissed four different girls, all in front of each other, and they didn't even care."

(Y/N): "Ohhhh that." I said in the most over exaggerated, obnoxious, tone I could possibly do. "Yeah that's my harem." 

If everything I had gone through, all the horrible shit and pain, was for one thing and one thing only; it would be for that face Cinder made right then. The pure shock on her face was enough to finally crack me as I burst out laughing. This only seemed to confuse her more as she began nervously laughing along. 

Which, in turn, only made me laugh even more. Soon enough I was curled over on the grass wiping tears out of my eyes as Cinder stared at me like I was a madman. After a few minutes of the best laugh I've had in a while I composed myself and stood up, wiping away those last few tears as I did. 

Cinder: "SO that was a joke then?" I shook my head. 

(Y/N): "No I was being completely honest those are four of my girlfriends." She gave a mocking laugh. 

Cinder: "I find it hard to believe you could convince one poor girl that you're worth her time, let alone 4." 

(Y/N): "You are absolutely right Cinder I just payed those four girls to stand in the woods and kiss me when I showed up." 

She still looked absolutely baffled as she tried to wrap her head around this. Honestly I don't think it should be that hard to believe, I've got my moments. Not many, but they happen. 

Cinder: "I suppose you do have a certain charm to you." See!? She's figuring it out! "You'd be a lot more charming, though, if we weren't making us risk our lives for some obsolete equipment." 

(Y/N): "Hey, I never said you had to come with." 

She turned to me with a slight scowl, causing me to back up a little in response. 

Cinder: "I said it before and I'll say it again. If something happens to you..." 

Cinder & (Y/N): "then it's my ass." 

I had heard this sooo many times on the way here I memorized the exact way she said it every time. But even though I'm making fun of her I do feel bad for dragging her along, the gear means a lot to me but doesn't mean shit to her. I'll find some way to make it up to her. 

Surprise her with something. One problem... what the fuck does Cinder like? 

Chocolate covered strawberries? 

Crying babies? 

I'll have to look into it. 

The sounds of students and soldiers could be heard as we stepped out of the tree line and made our way to the back of the gym. 

 Cinder: "Alright now what?" She said, crouching down and leaning against the wall. 

I peaked around the corner, and just as suspected, crawling with huntsmen and Atlesians. If it was night I'd just stick to the rooftops but it's broad fucking daylight right now and I guess that people would notice the shadow man jumping across roofs. Just when I thought this whole field trip was a bust I looked up and saw my natural ally.
