Chapter 7: Treat

We were sitting on the bleachers right now, listening to our PE instructor talking about physical fitness and how it affects our daily lives. I was actually quite bored because I had read it over and over back in London. It's been 2 weeks since the girls arrived and sure they quickly became famous because of their beauty. Who wouldn't? Four girls from prominent families worldwide strutted down the hallway of this school like they owned it.

It's a miracle that Toni didn't show up since the bicker with Ally. She told me that she was busy with training, and I know they were defending the title as champions from last year. Well, it is Senior Year for us, so leaving a legacy is a big thing. The girls receive letters here and there and sometimes even ask out, especially when I'm not with them. Truth be told, these girls are hard to please.

"Okay, you guys will be doing some fitness tests so that I can evaluate what I'm gonna do throughout the year. Group yourselves into five," he said as he handed out papers to fill in with the information. "The stamina test will be tomorrow since this is short notice for everyone. I guess some of you didn't have enough sleep," he said, eyeing some students who had hangovers. He blew his whistle, signaling every one of us to start doing the tests except for the stamina.

"Well, who wants to bet who will have the lowest scores?" Rose smirked. Ally rolled her eyes at her antics. They may be girly and all, but trust me, they know self-defense because we were required, especially that anyone or any time something terrible happened to us.

"Who loses will better be treating us," Alodia said, cracking her knuckles. Her competitive side showing up.

"Oh, children, please," I chuckled at them.

"Cathy and I will be out for that," Ally informed us as they took our forms to fill up.

"Okay then. So it will be me, Alodia, and you," Rose pointed at me.

"Try not to cry, Rose," Alodia said with a blank face.

Rose was lying down on the floor as she caught her breath while Alodia was still doing some sit-ups. Sometime soon, Alodia stopped at the 200, and I was still going on until the 300th. Cathy took the papers and evaluated the results. She's the statistician of the group. Doing the calculations in her head is a simple task.

"As per usual, Sam took the lead. Next to her is" she paused, looking at both of them.

"Obviously, it's me," Rose said smugly.

"Alodia," Ally said with a surprised look.

"What?!" Rose quickly went to see the results.

"As I said, no hard feelings" Alodia patted Rose's shoulder, earning a laugh from me.

"No way!" Rose said as she looked at our papers.

"Come on now! You got to take our measurements now," Ally said as she handed me the papers to fill up.

We were almost done finishing up the activities when a group of boys went in Alodia and Rose's direction. What the fuck? I was about to leave when Cathy grabbed my arm and shook her head. I frowned at the action, and Ally just told me to watch how they would interact.

"Just wait for Alodia. She did personally ask me to train her," Cathy said with a smirk.

Train her? With what? Together we watched the boys interacting with the two. They really tried to make a move at them, and I could see that Rose's eyes were not the usual "fun."

"As I said, boys, move along," Rose said seriously. There was this one guy who had blonde hair who tried to grab Alodia by the waist but-

"Don't ever touch me without my permission," Alodia said with a deathly glare. A thud was heard because of the sudden impact. Everyone looked in their direction. The guy was on the floor groaning as his arm was tightly gripped in a lock. My mouth hangs open, obviously too shocked by what happened.
