***
Janelle noticed us when we drew nearer and she let out a sigh of relief.
Raven walked up to Jai.
"What's up?" she asked.
Jai shook his head angrily and walked off.
Benjamin sighed.
"Janelle, I'm sorry," he said and loped off to Eliza.
Janelle's face was a mix of bewilderment and surprise.
I pounced on her.
"What happened? Why did Benjamin Walker apologise to you?" I asked.
Janelle shook her head and pressed her lips together tightly.
"C'mon, spill!" I begged.
If there was something wrong, maybe I could help fix it.
"No! Stay out of this! I don't need you poking your nose into everything!" Janelle yelled.
I flinched at the harsh tone in her voice and Janelle softened considerably.
"Look, I don't want to talk about it, but if it makes you feel better, then okay, I will." she finished.
Well, she was always the one who sacrificed for me. I seldomly do that.
"Jai was just showing me around the gym with my hand in his, then Benjamin came in. Apparently he had followed us 'cos Grunfield told him to, and when he saw my hands interlocked with Jai's, he flared up and I said some really mean stuff, which caused Ben to be mad at Jai, Jai mad at Ben and me in the center of it all!" Janelle said.
I tried digesting all of it.
"So you held Jai's hand? Oh. My. Gosh!" I squealed.
Jann rolled her eyes but she was blushing.
"I think Ben's just jealous of you holding hands with Jai. Males can be possessive." I remarked thoughtfully.
Janelle scoffed.
"There isn't anything between Jai and I. We're just...the trainer and trainee."
I snorted in disbelief.
"Yeah, right. I sense a love-triangle fight!" I teased.
Janelle swatted at me.
"Oh, lay it off, Corr." she replied.
Just then, Jai stalked up to me.
"Care if I borrow Janelle for a while?" he asked.
"Nuh-uh, mister. She's with me." I retorted.
Jann shook her head.
"It's okay, Corr." she said and left to go with Jai.
What was wrong with her?
Oh, right.
Jai was her trainer.
