Chapter 7

“Marius, Sherie. Do you need a ride? I think the school is on our way. Why are you late anyway? Isn’t that…” Xavier stopped mid-sentence when he saw my facial expression.

“Um, sorry. Really, it’s not a problem, and it’s the least we could do.” I looked at Sherie, glanced at the time on my cell phone, and sighed.

“Yeah, okay fine.” I knew I sounded ungrateful, but it was already a trying morning. “Thanks, that would be appreciated.”

Sherie squealed, happy to spend some time with her best friend, even though she would miss the train, usually her favorite thing. She grabbed Tonya’s hand and pulled her along as Xavier and I followed them to the elevators. His rear end was very finely made, by the way. Have I said that already? I made sure to walk a little behind him so I could appreciate the view. Once we got to the parking deck, Xavier led us all to the Lexus SUV parked a few feet away. Of course.
