Tenacious Sky novel Chapter 26

Luckily, the coach used the whistle for starting for the time being. With the whistle, Leo won every time. Easton came and sat next to me. He was dripping wet with a towel around his next.

"How are you doing with everything?" He asked. I smiled lightly.

"I got to train yesterday, so I'm still riding that high," I answered.

"Wanna go somewhere with me today?" He asked. I looked at him curiously.

"It depends," I said hesitantly. He smirked with a chuckle.

"Depends on if Leo wants to go?" He asked. I quickly shook my head.

"That's not what I meant," I tried to say quickly.

"Dorm Two is having a karaoke night in their lounge. It's kind of like a get together between dorms. Normally, there's always competition between us, so there will most likely be some kind of prize for the winning dorm," he explained.

"I'll come," I said excitedly. I loved karaoke, and it would be good to meet more people and see how the dorms worked. He smiled.

"I'll see you there then," he said before he stood and walked away. Leo pushed himself out of the pool before coming over.

"What did Easton want?" He asked.

"He invited me to a dorm competition," I answered easily.

"You're going?" He asked as I handed him a towel.

"I told him I would," I answered. Leo sighed as his hands went to his hips.

"You're so reckless, seriously," he breathed as he pulled his swimming cap off of his head.

"Is it safe to assume you'll go with me," I asked smugly. He glanced at me before rolling his eyes.

"Why do you have to be so social?" He muttered before he walked away.

By the time we got back to the dorms at the end of the day, I only had time to shower and change. Leo waited on me as he studied at his desk. When I was ready to go, we went to meet Easton at the front of our dorms.

"I can't say I'm surprised to see Leo," Easton chuckled. "Let's go," he said quickly. We walked together down the walkway to the second dorm building. It was almost exactly the same as our dorm except for the colors. It put an emphasis on red while ours was blue. The lounge was already packed as a makeshift stage stood in front of a TV. There was a sign up list starting for the competition. I started making my way towards it. Leo held me back by my arm.

"I thought you were just here to watch. You're signing up?" He asked. I nodded.

"It sounds like fun," I shrugged. He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. I signed up before finding a seat. Easton and Leo sat with me as the event started. Easton handed me a cup of fruit punch as the first guy got up to sing. I thanked him before taking a sip. I hesitated at the taste.

Alcohol.

The drink was spiked.
