Clementine:
It was so weird that none of us could even catch up. We just sat silently in our beds while they went one by one to the restroom. Once all of them were back, their hair wet, Haiden spoke first.
"We shouldn't feel this way. I mean, it's pretty normal. Men have had too many mates over the years. So why are you upset?"
He didn't say it directly, but he was trying to ease my mind about getting intimate with all of them in the North.
"Haiden is right, it wasn't a bad thing. Just because the ringleaders labeled it didn't make it wrong." Troy tried to comfort me too, making me feel at ease.
"But why the heck was Ian involved?" Suddenly, Yorick shifted the attention to Ian, and I shot my head up.
Ian, who usually looked confident, suddenly looked away. His hands clenched the edge of the bed, a visible frown on his forehead.
"Yeah, the lust works when there's already some spark. So how did he end up getting involved?" Troy reminded us of the gnomes' rules.
