District 9

Chapter Seven

I sigh walking down the street next to Lydia, Iris and Ariel. We are on our way back to where Namjoon and them are staying at right now.

"Hello there," I hear a voice say to the right of me. I quickly glance over to see some male. He is taller than me by a good few inches. He has light brown hair that ends above his blue eyes. For some reason he reminds me of someone, I just don't know who.

"Who the fuck are you?" I ask, my voice is more on the quiet side, but I can tell he heard me.

"Luke," he answers.

"You look familiar," Ariel says.

"I thought the same," Lydia announces. I give a nod of agreement.

"Because he's my brother," a familiar voice says.

I don't even turn before I say, "Benjamin." When I turn, there he is standing in like he was this morning. Sure I just saw him today, but it sure does feel like it's been a while.

"Scarlett," he says.

"Great this asshole," I hear Lydia mutter.

I suddenly hear footsteps down the road and when I turn and look, I see a few more guys. The one in the lead has golden blonde hair and green eyes, wearing all black besides his dark red shoes. To the left is a guy with black hair and icy blue glaring eyes, he too is in all black. On the other side of the blonde is a guy with light brown hair and brown eyes, like the others he is wearing all black.

When I glance over at Benjamin, he looks slightly horrified. I quickly turn to look at Luke and he is wearing the same expression.

I know for sure that Lydia, Iris, and Ariel all know who the people are, they are part of our secret life. It only takes a few seconds to hear the running steps of Benjamin and Luke.

Once the trio reaches us, they give us all smiles, which we return. In all truthfulness, I am very surprised to see them because normally they are one the outskirts of District 9.

The blonde one's name is Samuel Letchford, but we all call him Sam or Sammy. He is a couple years older than me, at the age of twenty. He is a really good fighter, like most of us. The brown haired is Zeke Kingston. He too is twenty. Then the black haired one is Jonathan Steel, who is nineteen.

"What the hell are you guys doing here?" I ask.

"We just thought to drop in," Sam says.

I glance around the area to see if anyone is nearby. Standing near the entrance to some building is a person who looks to be watching us. From here, I can't tell what they are wearing, but I don't trust them. Nobody else has seemed to take notice of them.

"Come on, let's go somewhere to catch up a bit," I mutter.

I quickly take my phone out so I can message Namjoon. While the others talk for a bit, I quickly tap away at my phone screen.

Before I tap the send button, I read over the message. 'I just wanted you to know that we are going to go to The Center so I can change, so we are going to be a bit longer than what we expected. No need to worry about us because we'll be fine. I'll tell you when we are on the way back.' Noticing no mistakes, I press the send button.

I tune into the conversation between everyone and right now I am so confused on what is going on. Sammy has Zeke in a headlock, both Ariel and Iris are trying to get Sammy to let go, standing to the side talking is Jonathan and Lydia.

"What's happening?" I mutter while walking over to Jonathan and Lydia.

"You know, just Sam and Zeke fighting like usual," Jonathan says, his voice like normal is monotone and his face is stoic.

After a few second pause of Lydia and I looking at Jonathan, he gives a small chuckle. "God, I've missed you guys," he says with a small smile.

After nodding in agreement, I silently sigh.

"What's up with you?" Jonathan asks me.

I shrug with my left shoulder as a silent answer. Truthfully I really want to tell Namjoon about our whole secret life. But I know that if I do him and the others could be in danger.
