My Alpha(s)

《Six》

"Hey 'Trick," Joe greets when Patrick comes stumbling out of the bunks. Patrick smiles at Joe and walks over to the kitchen.

Patrick sighs when he sees no Honey Nut Cheerios and grabs Pete's Fruit Loops. He throws the box on the table and grabs milk and a bowl, trudging back to the table.

Pete and Andy walk out from the bunks to see Patrick eats cereal and Joe on his phone.

"Hey! That's my cereal!" Pete whines, grabbing another bowl and filling his bowl full of Fruit Loops. Patrick shrugs and sips on the remaining milk in his bowl. Patrick points to his empty cereal box.

"Are you on vocal rest?" Andy asks, deforming the box and throwing it in the trash. Patrick nods, getting up and putting his bowl in the sink.

"Coulda known that yesterday, Patrick." Pete says, stuffing his mouth full of cereal.

"Sorry," Patrick mouths.

"You're fine. Just a heads up next time." Patrick nods and picks up his phone.

Patrick shakes his head at the alphas, who were currently playing a intense game of Tennis on the Wii.

"Haha! Eat shit!" Joe exclaims, as Pete failed to hit his fastball.

"Why is your Cpu actually good!?" Pete wonders, as he swings his arm downward.

"I'm wondering the same thing," Andy agrees, hitting the ball back to Joe.

"Shit!" Joe exclaims, as the force of his desperate swing sent him stumbling over a chair.

"Ha! How's it feel?"

"Like you two are pieces of shit."

Patrick smiles at the three, shaking his head at their bickering. The bus slows to a stop, and the driver announces that they have arrived at the venue.

"Thank God. Now I won't be stuck playing This stupid fucking game with you cheaters," Joe mutters.

"Excuse you? Cheaters?"

"Yeah, you heard me correctly."

"Oh, it's on now Afro!" Pete exclaims, running up to Joe, sending them tumbling to the ground. The two are in a wrestling match, throwing words and fists at each other.

"And you wonder why we don't play these game," Andy mumbles. Patrick nods his head in agreement.

"Ok, you two seriously need to stop before you break something," Andy states, trying to pull Pete off of Joe.  Pete just pushes Andy back, resulting in Andy joining in on the wrestle match on the floor.

Patrick calmly goes and tries to pull Joe off of Pete. Joe turns around, grabs Patrick's wrists and pushes Patrick back, making him topple to the floor.

Joe freezes, just realizing what he just did. Andy and Pete also stop, staring at Patrick and back to Joe. Patrick's eyes are wide, staring at Joe with fear.

"N-no Patrick, I-I didn't mean to-" Joe rants, as Patrick quickly gets up and runs too the back of the bus.

"You messed up big time," Pete growls, sending a death glare at Joe.

"Idiots! We are all at fault! You two fucking started this goddamn bullshit, and Joe," Andy exclaims, jabbing his finger in his chest. "You fucking knew not to take it out  on Patrick! He's really sensitive to this shit! Even more so after what happened!" Joe and Pete are silent, both of them knowing what Andy was saying was correct. Andy was always correct.

The alphas are silent as they hear Patrick's distant sobs.

"I really fucked up," Joe whispers, his head hanging low.

"Big time."

Patrick was doing so well, trusting the alphas. But, one wrong move on Joe's part shattered that trust he had, and the three alphas know it's going to take a lot to build it up again.
