Tasting All My Mates

103-The Monster In The Mountains

*Hey!”

I was engrossed in my thoughts when Lazlo entered the room and greeted me, “Maynard left already?” he asked and I nodded gently

“Have you heard from Thiago?” it was then I raised my face and watched him in bafflement, “Nobody has heard from him. He missed school today as well.” The worried look on Lazlo’s face increased my worries too.

“What? he hadn’t returned after last night?” I asked in a whisper. My voice was still raspy from crying so much.

“It appears so,” Lazlo put his stuff down and changed into a long overcoat instead of the jacket he was wearing. I was assuming he was getting ready to search for him.

“What happened to you? Have you been crying because he left?” the look on his face was something I couldn’t read. Either he was too shocked I was crying because Maynard left or too impressed at my love for Maynard.

“I was getting used to him. Now him being gone will be so difficult for me,” I whispered as I started tearing up again. How the hell am I going to demand him to reject her or not talk to her when I have been spending time with my mates?

“Hey, you are not alone. I am here for you. I know I haven’t been a good mate but I can be a good friend,” he shrugged his shoulders with a cute smile on his lips.

“Lazlo! that means a lot,” I passed him a comforting smile because a friend was what I needed at this moment.

“I am worried for Thiago. He doesn’t have anyone who can look after him. Look how he had been missing for hours, but nobody is searching for him.” I uttered in guilt, I shouldn’t be betraying myself by worrying for him but what do I do when my heart can’t stop considering my mate’s worries as my own?

“I going into the woods to search for him,” he told me as he showed me the little bag he was carrying with him with food and water bottles in it.

“Do you think it will take you some time to find him?” I questioned and he nodded sadly.

“Do you want to come?” he asked in hopes that I will join him. I bet he thought if he left me behind, I will keep worrying about everything.

“I do,” I said as I took a decision for myself without thinking about anything else at that moment.

We were walking out of the school when I got interrupted by someone I didn’t expect to see so soon. It was Willow.

Maynard had already left by now so that meant she wanted to speak to me.
