(Cole's POV)
The whole world is shaking. Well, that's what it seems like anyway. If I could still get up from that head butt that me and Jay had accidentally given each other, I would have hit him again.

But I couldn't get up. Also, the girls are in the room. How are we gonna lie our way out of this one?

"Hey girls!" Jay says nervously. I just wave with a fake smile plastered on my face. But Nya and Seliel looked at each other and then looked at us. "What were you guys doing just now?" Nya asks.

I am speechless. But motormouth over there isn't.

"We were training!" Jay answers.
"Inside the bounty?" Seliel asks while face palming.

Now it's my turn to speak. "Yeah! We have to see if we fight well in claustrophobic areas!" I answer. Hopefully that stops their questions.

Me and Jay look at each other nervously. I still can't help but think that Jay likes Seliel or maybe Seliel like Jay? I can't wait any longer. I have to ask.

I get up from my place on the ground. All three of them look at me. I clear my throat and then I say "Seliel, can we talk?". Seliel looks at me with a puzzled look. "Talk about what?" She asks. "Please just follow me." I reply and I leave the room.

I stop in front of Nya and Seliel's shared room. I turn around and Seliel is right there. I don't even hesitate to ask the question. "Do you like Jay?"

Seliel's face cycles through 3 different emotions. First realization, then sadness, then anger. "Do YOU think I like him too?!" Seliel snaps. I jump a little. "You DO don't you! Just like everyone on this d@mn ship!"
I've NEVER seen Seliel angry to this extent. Maybe I should've been more subtle.

"Seliel, if the question bothers you then-" she cuts me off. "How could you think I've fallen in love with someone else! How could you even conjure that thought up!" I take a step back.

Tears start to form in her eyes. Before I can apologize, she storms off.
