Three's a Crowd

Enough is Enough!!

John's POV

This...is... DISGUSTING. I am so sick of Six and Sam "knocking boots" on every flat surface in this house. I just found STAINS on the kitchen counter. Ever since those two got back together all they've been doing is having sex. I swear they have more sex than they breathe air.

I need to wash my hands.

I walk down the corridor to the bathroom and push the door without thinking.

The first thing I see is Six bent over the toilet bowl, and Sam pounding into her from behind like his life depends on it.

I scream.

Six screams.

She grabs Sam and they go invisible but the damage is done.

"John," Sam pants,"why didn't you knock!"

I can tell by the way he's talking that my impromptu visit hasn't slowed down his pace for even a second. The invisibility is just a bonus. Even if they weren't invisible, I doubt he would have cared.

"I'm sorry," I yell, "I didn't think about it."

Sam stops talking for a while, and a few moments later I hear him release a long relaxed sigh. I take this as my cue to leave. As I walk down the hallway I hear the toilet creaking and I know round 2 has begun.

Truth is, I'm happy for Six and Sam, I honestly believe they belong together. But all their renewed romance is doing is reminding me how much I miss Marina.

I've been meaning to talk to her these last couple days, but I've chickened out every time. Well, the present is as good a time as any.

Before I realize, I'm standing outside Marina's door. Wow, guess I was really wrapped up in my thoughts.

"Hey, Rina," I call through the door, "can I come in?"

"Uhh, sure but be quick."

"Now's really not the best time," she says distractedly.

She's got several things strewn across her bed. A large duffel bag takes up the majority of room. I sneak a peek inside and glimpse what looks like a bag of sandwiches.

"Are you going somewhere," I ask."

Marina looks like a deer caught in headlights and I immediately know her answer is a lie.

"Just going on a little hike is all," she says, continuing to stuff unknown items into the bag.

"Yeah... sure."

She finishes stuffing her bag and zips it up. She turns back to me like if she'd forgotten I was in the room.

"Well uh...see ya," she says awkwardly.

"Y-yep, mhm, yeahh," I stutter, "I will see you laterrr."

She's gone before I got the chance to choke over anymore words.

Something was definitely off with Marina. Maybe she's in trouble. I should probably follow her on this hike right? You know, just to make sure she's not in any trouble.

To be honest, I know I'm rationalizing following Marina. And to be equally honest, I sort of don't care.

"Hey, Sam? Six? Ella?" I call, "I'm stepping out, be back soon."

Slapping skin and a chirpy reply from Ella is the only response I get.

I use my Ximic-ed legacy of sonic manipulation (courtesy of Nigel Barnaby) and place a sound bubble over Six and Sam's room.

You're welcome, Ella.

                                                                                                  ...

Invisibly, I've been following Marina for close to 45 minutes now. Technically she is hiking but she seems to be heading towards town. Just when I'm thinking about turning around, Marina stops next to a bench and checks the time on her phone. A few minutes later, a boy around my age,with light brown skin, medium length jet black hair and emerald eyes, emerges from behind a house. He walks over to Marina and instantly a brilliant smile appears on her face. They talk for a few minutes and I see him reach over for her hand.

I can't watch anymore. I stumbled back in the direction, I came unable to breathe. The best thing in my life I've had since Sarah died.

And I let her go.

A/N: Ik not as interesting as the last chapter or as long and this was slightly a fill in chapter because certain things  aren't in place for other things to happen yet. Not 100% sure what lies in store for John and Marina but... yep just but cause i really dont know lolll. I do know for a fact what my plan for Ella is, and the next chapter will be from her POV, so yeh thats about it. Hope everyone is staying inside. Vote and Comment what you thought of this chapter or what you think lies in store for Ella and Greg or John and Marina. ...the guy Ella was talking too was named Greg right?😂😂 Last thing, I realize I haven't made a chapter told from Sam's POV yet and the reason is because most of his plot lines have to do with Six, and I'm a little better at writing from Six's POV than Sam's. But a Sam chapter is something I want to do, just to make it a little fair, so that's also in the works. LAST LAST THING 😂😂 comment any ideas you might have for John and Marina because it might inspire me.
