31. lets begin

"i couldn't date anyone after what you did"

Elena winced as Rico applied a cold gloss over her back before wrapping it with some tattoo wrap. "Thanks, Rico." Adina fist bumped her tattoo artists before she reclipped Elena's bra.

"No problem, Elena, let me know if there is a any problems." Elena nodded her head, "Yeah, sure, thanks." He nodded at her as she put her shirt back over. "I can't believe you actually did it."

Adina spoke wrapping her arm around Elena, who let out a breath, "Me either. Does it look cool?" She asked her best friend who nodded her head, "It's totally badass. Tory's gonna love it."

Elena had just got a snake wrapped around a sword on her back in red ink. It hurt like a bitch but she'd always wanted one on her back and now she had it. "So you sad about Jae leaving?"

Adina asked as they went over to Adina's car, "Yeah, actually,.. he was always there for me and I feel like I'm losing everyone lately. I still have two weeks with him though, so I'll enjoy my time with him."

Elena spoke buckling her seatbelt, pretending like she wasn't as phased but truth was she felt like dying inside. Everything and everyone was changing and leaving, she didn't want Jae to leave. But how could she beg him to stay?

It was a selfish thing to do. So she acted like she wasn't very phased by him leaving. He'd been there only 6 months and they'd only really known each other for about 5 months. But he meant a lot to her at a time when she hated almost everyone.

Adina looked over at Elena seeing the many thoughts running through her best friends head, she grabbed Elena's hand gently. "Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. I won't ever leave you behind."

Elena sat in Kreese's office doodling in her notebook, "Are you worried?" He asked her seeing as she stared at her notebook, "No.. I'm just angry. At everyone. At Sam. At Miguel. At myself. I keep trusting people who just leave."

"And the amount of times they break you, is the tougher a shell you get. And you won't make more of those mistakes, Elena. Trust me. You only get tougher and less reliant on others. You'll survive the more you suffer."

Kreese spoke, Elena went to respond when they heard the other Cobra's arguing. She looked out the office window and noticed how many people hadn't shown up. "Half the squad quit!" Kyler yelled at Tory, when the door opened.

Kreese and Elena shared a look seeing Robby come in, he headed to the back room where some of his stuff was being kept. Kreese got up followed by Elena, they went to the back.
