What possible cologne are these men wearing? Logan makes me crave vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce, and now Nixon and his strawberry fragrance is making me thirsty... wait no. Not that kind of thirsty, but like strawberry milkshake thirsty. UGH! Why is being a male so complicated?
Logan cleared his throat and we both turned to see his impatient expression, his arms crossed over his chest.
"Let's get going, the others are waiting," Logan suggested, lifting his head slightly.
We turned to look ahead and spotted the other three guys waiting for us.
Nixon smirked, taking three steps forward to stand in front of Logan.
"Don't worry. I'll make sure I don't steal sexy Jinn over there from you,” he declared, before turning around and walking back towards me.
He gave me a lazy smile and winked.
I had to question if I really just saw what I thought I had.
Wait. Is Nixon interested in me? Oh well, that's kinda hot. NO, I can't think that way, I'm NOT actually a guy. I'm also dating Logan. Yes. I, Jewel Starfire am dating Logan Cross. I can't be interested in Nixon... but I'm Jinn right now? Does that mean I can? My brain can't keep up with this.
I did a fake cough to distract myself from my frenzied thoughts and took a hesitant glance at Logan.
His face was guarded, but I had known him long enough to be able to tell he was pissed.
This is going to go downhill quickly. I can feel it.
DORM BUDDIES
"Here's your schedule and dorm key. You may choose your dorm mate and are expected to stick with that. We don't encourage switching dorm mates just because you end up hating one another. Your dorm is ACE 7 on Spellbound Road,” the secretary instructed, handing me my package and my identification.
I glanced at the card with my name 'JINN STARFIRE — MALE — SSS RANK — RED OR GOLD DIVISION’ written out with my picture on the left side.
"Thanks," I replied, turning around to walk back to the others who were checking out their own identifications and packages.
"ACE 7 anyone?" Maximus asked.
"Both of us," Zane and Kage said together before sharing a high five..
"Same," Logan mumbled, before glancing over at me.
I lifted my map that showed I was also in ACE 7 and he gave me a small smile but still looked to be in a bad mood.
I was exhausted and wasn't in the mood to deal with whatever was going on in his mind right now, especially in my male form where I had to give off a more confident, slightly uncaring attitude.
That's what I thought anyway.
Nixon shuffled over to my side, resting his head on my shoulder.
"Jinn is in ACE 7, too? Hey Jinn. Let's be dorm buddies,” he suggested.
"No."
I returned my attention to Logan who strode up to my other side, glaring at Nixon who still had his head rested on my shoulder.
"I'm staying with Jinn."
"But he'd be nice to cuddle with," Nixon mumbled.
I didn't know if I was suffering from slow response syndrome or what, but I just stood there, unsure how to react to his comment while my mind was busy imagining what Nixon looked like without a shirt.
This isn't healthy.
