The ExtraOrdinary Assassin

Chapter 8

At six o'clock, an announcement rang out saying that it was dinner time and that everyone should go to the dining hall. Jack, who had finished his homework long ago, and was now reading a piece of literature in German, put in a bookmark and left the room with his roommates.

At the dining hall Jack spotted Ellie. She was talking cheerfully with a group of three other girls, Most likely her roommates. Ellie looked up and called Jack over to sit with them. Ray and Alex, who had nowhere to sit, came with him.

"Hey Jack! These are my roommates." Ellie said, "The one with curly, brown hair is Stella. The redhead is Rose. And the blond is Marie." The three girls all waved happily, glad that they could be introduced to these three handsome boys.

"Hello Ellie. This is Ray and Alex." Ray smiled warmly while Alex winked at Rose. They ate dinner and talked, and then after thirty minutes Jack stood up to leave. Ray and Alex took this as their cue and got up as well.

When they got back to their dorm the punk was already in bed and sleeping. Jack went to his wardrobe and it seemed like all his clothes had been put in. Including his assassins outfit, somehow. He took out a pair of pajama pants and then took off his uniform.

Ray widened his eyes a little at the sheer amount of scars. Alex however blushed a little and then reached out to touch them. Jack, who didn't really care what he did just put his pajama pants on. Alex, who looked jealous for some reason, stroked the long scar that went down his spine.

"There is no way that you got this from a little accident. Can't you tell me what happened. We are going to be living together after all." Alex prodded. Jack chuckled and looked at Ray.

"Do you wanna know?" Jack asked. Ray was hesitant but he nodded. The thug poked his head out from the edge of the bed observing the conversation from on top.

"Alright then," Jack continued. "The three I got on my back, the big ones, were from a friend of my moms. And the small ones are from, well other friends I guess." My roommates were so disappointed in my answer but also slightly frightened.

"Isn't your mom the wife of the CEO of Hopperton Manufacturing?" Alex asked. I laughed at this. The boss definitely wasn't someone who could marry someone else.

"No. My mom is the CEO." This shocked them more than I expected. I thought everyone knew that our assassins guilds alias, the manufacturing company was run by the boss.

"But still, if your mom is such a prominent figure, then why would she be associated with... well, these types of people that would do this to her son?" Ray seemed genuinely concerned for me. I just smiled at his innocence.

"Don't you know what type of people the rich are? Anyway I have to rest. Tomorrow my family is coming over." I said, and then mumbling, "Although, they're probably just gonna laugh at me." I then climbed up to bed and fell into a light sleep.
