I dropped the dumbbell and it fell on my floor narrowly missing my feet as I stared up at Dan like he had grown a second head.

“Why her? You don’t even like brunettes, you prefer blondes so why are you going after her?” I asked him and he shrugged before stepping closer to me.

“I want to try something new,” He said but I knew that was all bullshit.

I didn’t like Vee like I liked Elena but I didn’t want Elena to get angry with me for not trying to protect her friend from something as silly as what Dan was suggesting.

“There are also brown-haired girls. Leave her alone.”

“Wooo woo! Hugging all the girls to yourself, aren’t you Mac Lee?” Noah cut in laughing.

“You want to fuck Elena and her best friend too?”

“The king is back!” Justin cheered, coming to slap my back as he took my hand and raised it in the air.

“Guys, the Mac we know is back!” He cheered and the others followed but I kept my eyes on Dan.

“We could share her,” He said as he reached his hand to me for a handshake and I slapped his hand away before snatching my hand back from Justin.

“There’ll be no sharing. She’s off-limits. She’s Elena’s best friend and I’m trying to get her. I don’t need her getting mad at me,” I said, trying not to make it seem like there was more going on between me and her.

But Dan and I had known each other for years and he could smell out when I was telling a lie or feeling something different.

He raised a brow at me before looking down at his hand as everyone fell silent.

“Why are you always trying to protect her?” He asked.

“I’m not trying to protect anyone.”

“So how about Tisha’s party?”

“She was drunk, and I was the one who invited her. No one should be taken advantage of when they are drunk.”

“How about at the pool yesterday?”

“She fell, someone had to pull her out,” I argued back but I could feel myself losing the argument.

“She’s one of the best swimmers. She wasn’t in danger, she could have gotten herself out without any problem,” Dan said calmly and I shook my head.

“Whatever,” I responded as I went back to carrying the dumbbell.

“Do you like her?” Dan suddenly asked and everyone else gasped in shock at the direct question.

Did I like Elena?

The answer was no because I didn’t like anyone. Everyone I spoke to, I tolerated.

There was no way in hell I liked Elena. Yes, she was interesting in a cool sort of way but I knew I didn’t like her.

“Why would you even ask that?” I glared at Dan who shrugged.

“Because you’re always with her, I know you both went to the pack festival a few weeks ago,” He said and I sighed.

Of course, he’ll know about that, his father was probably one of the sponsors along with Liam’s dad.

“It was just for fun. I’m trying to get her to loosen up to me,” I said, feeling cornered with everyone’s eyes on me.

I didn’t want any of the boys to think I was falling for Elena. It sounded weak to even think that I was supposed to try to get her in my bed only to end up being whipped.

“That’s the Mac I know!” Dan yelled as he slapped my back and pulled me into a half hug.

“I was starting to think you were going to get whipped like Emma over there,” He said as everyone laughed and Emma took off his headphones and glared at us.

Troy was one of those damn guys, who was easily star-struck by love.

In my dictionary, the thing called love is just a mere fantasy created by humans to fulfill their innate desire for sex.

Yeah, you heard me right, sex.

Apparently, there was more fun in trying other girls than just sticking with one.

“You guys won’t get married,” Emma said.

“But we’ll get the pussies,” Justin said and everyone erupted in a fit of laughter before he placed his headphones back on his ears as he continued his exercise.

One thing about Justin you all need to know is; that never throws shades for he would surely reply to you.

“Thank God. I was starting to get scared you have forgotten all about the dare,” Noah said and I faked a smile.

“So she means nothing to you?” He asked, trying to fully confirm.

“No, she doesn’t. She’s just a game to me. A game I am going to win.” I said and the guys cheered me on.

“Yo guys, have you all heard that Diamond Foxx has been notably absent over the past few months” Noah asked.

“Well some said she caught STDs of some sort but you know the damn school well, there are so many bunch of liars here” Dan replied.

He was one of those guys who believed he would get into Diamond’s panties one day.

“Anyways back to Elena” The moment Dan indicated this, I groaned in frustration, knowing that the topic would have to continue.

“Wow Mac! And she seemed so untouchable. I’ve never seen her talk to any guy before but I knew she was no match for you. Every girl wants you so she’s no different,” Emma said and I nodded.

“Yes, she’s no different. She has fallen for my charms, it’s only a matter of time before she falls into my bed too.”

“Hoo! Mac Lee is truly back!” Justin cheered, and everyone came to slap my back in encouragement.

“This past few weeks you’ve been awfully boring. Welcome back, king!” One of the basketball players Kelvin said, shuffling my hair playfully and I laughed softly.

“Don’t fall in love!” Kelvin said before walking off back to his post to exercise.

“And to think I was going to get more body count than you this month!” Justin said before picking up a bottle of water and chugging it down.

“I’ll leave Vee this time because you’re trying to get Elena. But after you are done, she’s all mine.

Dan said and I had no choice but to nod. At least she was safe in the meantime.

“You should be fast with Elena, we still have other fishes in the sea,” Justin said as everyone joined in fits of laughter and I did too.

All this time, I felt Emma’s gaze on me, and I knew he knew something I didn’t, or didn’t want to accept.
