Time After Next

[Harrison]

"Hayden almost killed Jae so yeah I am skipping, besides, if the class don't show up then we aren't behind." Lia shot a finger gun at Colt whilst a lazy smile played on her lips. Damn was Colt gorgeous. Hayden passed over the bottle, nodding to Colt as she made her dagger disappear into her pocket.
"I had no plan to kill her Lia, she shouldn't have touched me," Hayden added to Lia's statement, a bored yet lazy expression falling over her face.
"How could she know not to touch you if you didn't tell her?!" Lia threw a hand up, rolling her eyes whilst Hayden held her middle finger high in Lia's face.
"A better question, how did Jae know we hooked up?" Hayden swung her attention to Quinn, a dark eyebrow raised.
Lia's mouth fell open for a moment, a giggle rolling out after a second, "You what?!"

Zara walked into a mostly empty class, noting the girls she used sat with weren't there.
"Guess I am photocopying my notes," she hummed, sitting with a quiet boy at the front of the room.

[Dawnfire]

Colt looked on in amusement, stepping over all of their legs as Quinn flushed pink, "I didn't tell her, okay? We've known each other for ages, she could probably just tell." She grumbled and shifted her weight, "How do you know she knows?"
"Jaelynn is perceptive." Colt commented lazily in amusement.

[Harrison]

"She spat my no attachment sex in my face," Hayden grumbled darkly, "if she wants to have a closed relationship or a relationship for the fucking matter she better speak up before she gets on my nerves again... Colt stay." She held out a hand to Quinn, wiggling her fingers until the bottle was in her hands. Hayden took a quick swig and then capping it. Lia pulled out her phone to check on how the rest of their small crew was treating the tournament news.
Shoutgun picking the topic for the quizzes!!!! Zara had added, the rest seemed vaguely okay with it, if not a little concerned about the disruption.
"By the way, Quinn started a tournament against an older crew, Mrs Holland agreed and I am already tired from it." Hayden blew out a breath, shooting Quinn a half-hearted 'I don't like you' look.

[Dawnfire]

Quinn found herself scowling, "Okay, you can all stop that now. Lia, I got riled up on your behalf- if you want to let those assholes walk all over you, then fine, but don't any of you get mad at me for standing up against them. They deserve to get their asses kicked and we deserve to kick them."
Colt nodded and sat down, "I mean, she has a point."

[Harrison]

Hayden almost smiled when Colt sat down, she felt a sense of respect towards Colt.
“I have a point to,” she patted her thigh where her knife was hidden, “ain’t mean I shouldn’t ask all of the crew before trying to stab a stronger crew.”
Lia moved her hands to her lap, trying to discreetly rub a bruise, “sure Hayden, I will ask your opinion next time I’m almost raped as to wether or not I take I make them bleed, teamwork is strong with this one,” she huffed sarcastically. Hayden finally dropped it, taking a swig from the vodka before offering it to Colt.

[Dawnfire]

Colt shook her head, "No thanks man, that shit you gave me this morning fucked me up, bad." She grinned, "Poor Zara had to witness me coming back from the edge of greening myself. I don't need to add alcohol on top of all that."
She leaned back on her palms, looking over at Hayden with interest, "Quinn, huh?" She smirked and Quinn reached over, hitting her leg, "Oi! We aren't talking about it!"
Colt chuckled and pursed her lips, "Naw, Quinny..."

***

Colt got down to the training facilities that afternoon and rubbed her hands together in excitement. Jaelynn had finally emerged from the art room an hour after end bell and walked towards them wearing black tights and a singlet. Colt was wearing her usual tank top, sports bra and had put on a pair of cargo pants. Quinn turned up in booty shorts and a crop top, apparently deciding she liked having her scrawny frame on show. Since there was technically no dress code for training... eh.
Quinn walked over to Jae, asking if she wanted to switch partners but Jae shook her head and after a short conversation, darted after Colt who was heading on to the field to locate the board that told the crews which training station they were starting at that afternoon. They turned out to be on the gauntlet course with Mr Harrison- or rather, both of them, for the first station.
"Hey Colt-" Colt turned and looked at Jae who flinched at the sudden movement. Colt looked at her in confusion, "What's up with you? The other day I practically kidnapped you and you were fine."
"The other day I hadn't almost had my spleen taken out." She mumbled quietly. Colt laughed, grabbing her hand, "Don't like the dangerous types?"
Jaelynn blushed as Colt pulled her in closer and laid her hands on Jae's hips, leaning in to kiss her jaw gently. Jae melted in her hands, and Colt laughed gently near her ear, her fingers clasping each other above Jae's tailbone, "Hayden isn't going to hurt you, just don't touch her. She probably has a history- like most slayer children. Just respect her, she'll do the same."
"She grabbed me first..." Jaelynn mumbled childishly.

[Harrison]

Zara bounced into the hall, pink tights that stopped bellow the knee, a glittery white singlet with the words ‘Baby doll’, and bright white sneakers were the extent of her obtrusive pink fashion.
“Come on beautiful Lia, it isn’t my fault you packed those shorts,” she sang to Lia, of whom made the mistake of grabbing her black running shorts and black tank top instead of her tights and singlet.

Hayden had donned her jeans for basketball shorts and a long sleeved white shirt, tits flattened by a wonderful two sports bras. She didn’t quiet notice Colt and Jae, to fixated on Zara’s swaying hips, until Lia swiped a hand in front of her face.
“Gaaay,” Lia snickered, only to stumbled at Quinn’s bare skin, “we could be doing sparing or pit training and she wears that?!” She recovered swiftly, looking away to find her uncle.

[Dawnfire]

Colt released Jae quickly when the other three joined them on the field. She whistled under her breath and Jae avoided looking at them all. Jae went over to the huge obstacle course and found Jaxon in booty shorts and a crop top, leaning in to Eric's chest. His eyes were closed and his ear planted firmly tucked up against his husband's heartbeat.
Jae watched them for a moment before moving over and starting to stretch.

Colt walked over to Hayden, Zara and Lia who had been found by Quinn, "We're at the obstacle course for the training session, but afterwards I think we should run through all of them, fifteen minute periods on each- there's no chance we're missing the tournament."
Quinn nodded, slinging her arm around Colt's shoulders, "Yes! Go Colt! Team leader!"
Quinn was of course kidding, because Colt never took the lead on anything, she was happy to be ordered around and get high any other time.

[Harrison]

Zara did catch a glimpse of Colt and Jae breaking apart.
“Yay.” Lia cheered half heartedly, stretching her shoulder out the best she could before she started to move. Zara was soon thrown into the hell known as the obstacle course. Sweating. Grass stains. Abuse for Mr. Harrison for being too slow. Hayden grinning. The last bit was probably the scariest thing because it was a wicked, pain loving smile. Zara shivered when Hayden passed her to the next station. Once it was all over she was left to stretch and get ready for the god forsaken tournament. It wasn’t that it was bad, it was that she was doing the quizzes and that was starting to worry her more than it should.


“How are you smiling?” Lia panted at Hayden, who was beaming from ear to ear.
“Endorphins.” Hayden hummed back, stretching her calves as she rolled out her neck. Lia had an odd thought, Hayden would amusing high. She shook her head, finding herself a bit more comfortable with the people around her in comparison to that morning.
“Quinn? You okay?” Lia asked, breaking away from Hayden to check on the smaller girl.

[Dawnfire]

Quinn was panting, much more of a technology kind of person which the newest crews all had.
She would be the one less likely to be on the feild.
She collapsed on the grass to catch her breath, wincing at the mud that covered all of them. She had several cuts that stung from the mud and she was not happy.
She shook her head and sat up, "Nope."

Colt was okay since she was physically strong but her breathing let her down. Smoking weed so much came with it's affects and shallow breathing was one.

Jaelynn walked over Quinn and tipped water she had gathered from one of the course obstacles over the girls head to get the water off of her. Quinn squealed at how cold it was and chased Jae until they were both in the water under the hanging ropes.
Colt instantly shot up and raced over to get in, all of them rinsing the mud off and cooling down.

[Harrison]

Hayden, being the wonderful person she was, canonballed the three. Bleached curls now palstered against her skull when she resurfaced, some how still smiling in the slightly gross water.
“I am NOT getting in there,” Zara snarled when Lia suggested, her nails were still working off the mud slpattered. Lia, instead of letting Zara chill, picked up Zara and ran her to the water. She dropped Zara in the water, jumping in after her. Zara let out a scream that would wake zombies five miles away, whining as the muddy water touched her, almost crying as she scrambled out only to have Hayden pull her back.
“Chill, it’s as clean as the girls locker room, if not cleaner.” Hayden grumbled, being scratched in Zara’s fight to get out.

[Dawnfire]

Jaelynn and Quinn proceeded to get in a play fight in the muddy water since they couldn't see the other when they were head under.

Colt moved over to Zara and pulled her against her body, one of her hands hoisting her against her waist with her hand clasping her thigh, while the other rested on her back, keeping her tucked in against her.
She looked up at her, her black hair half in her eyes and said playully, "It's only dirty if you think about it, but love, I can give you several better things to think about."

[Harrison]

Hayden shrugged, backing off to splash Quinn, she didn’t seem to care that Jae was avoiding her.

Zara, clutching Colt, trying to pull herself out of the water until there was a hand on her thigh.
Oh...
“What is... are you high?” Zara whispered, sinking against Colt. She still gripped Colt with nails and a death grip on her shoulder, face buried into that same shoulder.

[Dawnfire]

Colt laughed quietly, shaking her head, "No love, I'm not high." for once.
"I can't breathe if I get high before training."
She nuzzled her neck lightly and kissed her jaw gently before leaning in to mumble in her ear, "Training is always going to be disgusting, but so is ashing and slaughtering zombies."
She rested her cheek against Zara's head and added quietly, "You just have to think about the good you're doing rather than the means of which you are achieving it in."
Her nails brushed Zara's spine gently in a calming manner.

Quinn laughed softly and splashed Hayden back before looking in shock as Jaelynn drew her against her body, mumbling something under her breath.

[Harrison]

Zara relaxed at the touches, oddly letting it happen.
“Keep doing that please...” she murmured, tilting her jaw for more kisses. Zara didn’t seem the type for affection, considering the whole germaphobe thing.

Lia gagged at the couples, laying back in the water and, with some serious skill, floated on her back.
“Hayden, is that a rabbit?” She hummed, embracing the cool water.
Hayden looked up, “yep, another fun night ahead,” she confirmed before splashing Quinn and Jae.
