Logan was quiet for a moment before he grumbled something under his breath.
"I need to talk to Jinn, alone," Logan announced.
Nixon shrugged.
"Sure. Guess we'll finish our game later."
He turned to me, leaning forward to whisper in my ear.
"Don't get too mad at him. I like teasing him."
I blushed at his words and he winked, moving to the ladder and made his way down. I unhooked my legs and Alice hopped forward to look over the rail. I noticed Nixon shuffling a deck of cards in front of Logan, who stood with his arms crossed as he glared at Nixon's smug expression.
"Don't get into a fight, lovers,” Nixon hummed, before walking out of the room and closing the door behind him.
"He's interesting,"Alice whispered in my head.
Agreed.
Logan looked up and our eyes met. His anger was so apparent it sent shivers down my spine while the anxiety that I thought had vanished from the effects of being a guy, reared its ugly head.
I lifted my hands in defense.
"Don't give me such an angry face. You've awakened my anxiety," I mumbled.
He frowned, knowing from the way my voice trembled I wasn't joking.
"Come down here, Jinn,” he whispered.
His voice sounded less threatening than it had before but I still didn't feel confident enough to go down and face him.
"Maybe in a minute... or two," I stalled.
I kind of wished I was in my girl form so I could cry and he'd automatically feel sympathy for me.
Were there any good things about being a male? I had yet to find any benefits.
"Fine,” he replied.
I thought I'd get a moment to calm my racing heart, but instead he climbed up the ladder and was by the end of the bed in seconds.
I gulped and then a stream of words left my mouth suddenly.
"Don't be mad at me or about the fact that Nixon's purposely pissing you off," I rushed out in a jumbled sentence, before shuffling to the head of the bed and crossing my legs.
Alice whimpered and hopped off over to where Logan was before making her way down the ladder to go hide somewhere in the room.
WHERE DID YOU GO?! You're supposed to give me moral support!
"Nah. Not with angry Logan. Y'all can fight without me. Bye."
Worst familiar ever!
"I love you too,"she replied and just like that, her presence was gone.
I bit my lip hard, slowly turning back to Logan who was still looking in the direction Alice ran off to.
"Why does she always run away when we fight?" he wondered.
