My Secret, My Bully, My Mates

The day actually went pretty smoothly, I didn't even have any run-ins with Kaley and her crew. I wasn't sure if that was because of the display this morning at training or the new friend I seemed to have acquired.

“You think you're so tough, being Delta Kyle's favorite suck up.

She reached out and put her hand on Cameron's chest. “You're so funny babe, Sam is one of the best warriors we have, I bet he could do that move with one hand tied behind his back. His dad was just being nice to Sierra and S-Skylar.” Did she just choke on my

I can't help it, their laughs are infectious. This is the first time in a long time I have felt comfortable around my brother and his friends and probably the first time ever in a public setting like school. I
