Chapter 6 - Logan

I sit patiently outside waiting for the day yo finish along with everyone else in the program.

"Hey Riley?" I hear John call from behind. I look up at him expectantly and he gives me a stern look.

"Do not do anything stupid." He tells me and walks to his car with his gym bag swinging. I look back at my hands ignoring the curious gazes of everyone.

"What was that about?" Logan, the only willing one to ask asks. I smirk,

"John and one of my brothers go back a very long way." I tell him.

"I figured. By why would he say that to you." My smirk momentarily falters,

"Nothing you need to worry you pretty little head about." I reply curtly. I look up and see a smirk on Logan that probably makes all the girls swoon except me.

"So you think I'm pretty?" He asks cockily. I role my eyes,

"You know you are." I tell him. He smirks,

"I like to think of myself as hot rather than pretty. But any compliment from you I'll take." He replies. I role my eyes. My phone starts ringing and I answer it.

"Hey sis!" I hear Alec say from the other end.

"Hey bro." I copy him. He chuckles slightly.

"So did you get in?" He asks.

"Yeah. Guess who the coach is. It's John, from-"

"Not John from New York?" He cuts me off.

"Yeah... why?"

"Riles be careful around him." He tells me sternly. I stand up and move away from the others out of earshot.

"Alec what do you mean?" I ask hesitantly. He sighs,

"I'll tell you in person. But if John is there there are going to be others you'll know... don't do anything stupid." He tells me repeating exactly what John said.

"Alec tell me now." I hiss.

"Love you Riles." He says and hangs up. I pull away and look at my phone dumbstruck. Alec would never have hung up if it was something serious.

"Troubles?" Logan asks out of nowhere making me jump. I take a minute to regain myself.

"Nothing you need to worry about." I reply. He shrugs,

"Wasn't interested." He shoots back. I smirk at his answer. The beeline signalling the end of the day goes and I move to head out front to catch Iana and Nolan but Logan grabs my arm.

"Listen I know you don't like Brant and neither do I. So let's make a truce and help each other to make his life hell." He tells me. I frown,

"What has he done to you?"

"Doesn't matter." He mutters darkly. I study him for a moment.

"Fine." I sigh, his face lights up.

"Great. Let's come up with a plan now." He says walking towards the car park.

"Woah dude. I'm meeting up with my friends." I tell him. He stops for a minute,

"You mean Iana and Nolan?" He asks. I nod my head. He looks around the car park and when he catches sight of something he takes my arm and starts walking to it. I see Iana and Nolan in a deep conversation. I jerk my arm out of Logan's grip and walk over. Iana looks at me and gives a small smile. I walk over and give her a hug.

"Sorry I ignored you this morning and didn't go and find you during breaks... wasn't in a very good mood." I tell her. She hugs me back.

"Don't worry and I kinda figured." She replies. I hear Logan cough behind me and I turn to face him,
