Within thirty minutes, I was done with preparing myself for the day. Breakfast was out of the question, I would just take a cup of cold milk and that would take me till I got done with the lecture I was heading for.
After checking whether I had everything I needed in my backpack, I picked up my key and exited the room only to find Alec lying lazily on the couch.
“Morning,” I greeted as I went my way to the kitchen. He looked up, seeming surprised.
“Hey lazy ass,” Was his reply. I said nothing as I opened the fridge and took out a carton of milk then poured it into a glass. I went ahead to get some cookies from a glass jar.
On finishing, I left the kitchen, planning to clean it later. When I was almost at the main door, Alec stood up and ambled towards me. He grabbed my wrist.
“You’re not going anywhere,” He stated.
“I have a class and you can't tell me what to do,” I protested, glaring at him despite feeling a bit intimidated under his sharp stare. I was beginning to wonder if he was sane.
“You're not getting out of this place.”
I laughed.
“Why not?” I looked up at him.
“I need you to unpack my stuff and organize my room.”
I tilted my head, laughing. The audacity.
“You're kidding, right?” I said. “Your girlfriend was here yesterday, I thought she'd helped you do all that.”
“She isn't my girlfriend,” He remarked. “Besides, she didn't come here to do that.”
“And I'm here to do that?” I questioned, tilting my head.
“You're my roommate.”
“That doesn't make me your maid,” I said in annoyance. “For your information, I have to be in class by ten.”
“Can't you ditch that for even once?” he asked.
“I attend all my classes,” I told him. He was still holding my hand.
“Can you please help me, Lynn,” he said, almost humbly. “I really can't do all the work alone.”
Seeing Alec beg me to help him was so funny I wanted to laugh. I looked at him. His eyes were fixed on mine, which was very intimidating. I realized he was still holding my hand and it made me feel fuzzy.
“That's better,” I was charmed by his desperate look. He looked almost innocent yet stunning. “I'll help you”.
Alec smiled.
“I really appreciate it, Lynn.” He said dropping my hand. I went and opened my bedroom door. On entering, I removed my blouse and knee length skirt then put on a tank top and three quarter shorts. Tying up my hair in a ponytail, I removed got my phone from the backpack.
I sent a text to Kari informing her that I wasn't going to attend the lecture. She'd be really shocked because I never missed a class for anything.
What's it? You sick?
Nuh...roommate issues. Bye n don't text back.
That would surely make her unhappy for she was the cause of it all. Why did she leave me to go and live with her new boyfriend? I didn't even like the idea because I never trusted Ron, her new love. I also didn’t understand why she would move in with someone she barely knew.
Will be checking on you guys soon.
After reading the reply, I placed the phone on my bed and headed to Alec's room.
I walked straight inside as his door was open. Most of his stuff was still packed in suitcases and boxes so the room wasn't too messy. He was putting some clothes in the closet so I decided to start with getting the shoes onto the shoe rack.
“So, what are you studying?” I tried to start a conversation.
“Art and Design,” he answered. “You?”
“Literature.”
“That's too easy, I guess,” He mocked. “I even wonder why you have to attend lectures every day.”
“Oh,” I picked up a pair of sneakers, carefully placing them on the shoe rack. I had no interest in getting into a useless argument, trying to make him understand that it was not easy.
“You got a boyfriend?” He asked all of a sudden.
“Why do you ask?” I inquired with lack of interest.
“Just wanted to know,” He replied.
“I see,” I wanted to avoid the topic.
“It's not like I am interested in you. I just don't want some guy coming here late in the night and having you moan so loud that I fail to sleep”
“You have a dirty mind,” I remarked. “I'm not dating anyone.”
He laughed. “I knew it.”
So why did you ask?
I wasn't embarrassed about my relationship status because I was happy without a boyfriend. Not having one did not bother me at all because I never really needed one that much. Boys came with lots of stress and I already had enough stress to deal with in my life.
“Of course you knew it,” I remarked sarcastically.
“Can I ask you a question?” He asked me when I was done with the shoes. I went on to lay his bed.
“What?”
“Nothing important,” He said as he put the last shirt on a hanger. “But you're a pretty girl, I must say.”
We were almost done with the cleaning when I heard a knock at the main door. Carrying the bucket and mop, I left Alec’s bedroom. After leaving the cleaning supplies in the bathroom, I went to open the door. A girl was standing there.
“Hi,” I began.
“Is Alec in?” She asked.
“Yeah,” I said. “Come in.”
She entered when he was just getting out of his room.
“I got your text,” She smiled as he hugged her. “The room is now okay?”
“Yap,” He kissed and led her to his room.
I was left alone, furious. I'd missed a lecture to clean Alec's room only for him to text a girl so they'd have good time in there? He'd acted really nice for all that time and I'd been fooled. It wasn't like I wanted him but couldn't he carry out his whoring acts elsewhere? I had been fooled but it was never going to happen again. I was getting rid of that bipolar whore.
I went out to see Mrs. Bent, the landlady.
Alec's POV“I've got to hurry,” Leah said when we stepped out of the bathroom. She kissed me on the lips and smiled. “Martin will be back in less than thirty minutes”Leah was a girlfriend to a friend of mine. They'd been dating for about a month but she couldn't resist me. Of course, she'd fallen for me the moment she saw me and that didn't surprise me. It happened all the time. Martin and I were not close enough for me to care about how sleeping with his girl would hurt him. Maybe it would teach him a lesson, to date good girls not whores who are willing to let anyone touch them.Being a pleasure seeker, I hated relationships. They never worked out for me because the idea of being stuck with one girl seemed really boring. I wanted to have fun and live life to the fullest. I was once in a relationship but it failed miserably, I couldn't keep my hands off other girls so the best option for my horny self was to remain single. That way I would not hurt any of the girls I would be with.
Alec kissed my best friend and she had no problem with it. I got extremely furious when I saw them that I just hurried to my room and locked the door behind me.I'd told Jen everything about Alec and she'd agreed that he was a total useless idiot yet she kissed him? I hated Alec and I'm not saying my best friend should do the same but she should have been a little civil. I wasn't very realistic but there were two sides for her to take either Alec's or mine. She'd chosen Alec, kissed him and enjoyed it. I wouldn't be surprised if I opened the door and found them having sex.For all I knew, Jen had never been like that. She'd never kissed a boy on the first day of meeting him and if a boy tried anything she'd slap him but when it came to Alec, she'd kissed him back, happily. Was it a dig at me?My best friend betrayed me. She'd said she hated him already but it didn't look like it when she was kissing him. Interesting.It looked like I was jealous but I wasn't. I couldn't be jealous ove
I felt the headache before opening my eyes. My mouth felt so dry like I hadn't drunk anything in months. Then I felt someone's arm around me which caused my eyes to snap open. Had I slept with a guy? I tried to remember the previous day’s events. Who could it be? Ross? I remembered going to a club with Ross. Was I with him or the boy I'd danced with whose name I couldn't remember?I looked around and saw a very familiar room, I was in Alec's room. I quickly sat up in the speed of lightning, letting his lean, muscled arm fall to the side. When I stood up, I became dizzy due to the fast movement I'd made while getting out of the bed. I sat down on the nearest chair in order to stabilize myself.“YOU MORON WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME?” I yelled furiously when my head stabilized. This was the worst of all things that could possibly have happened, me ending up on his STD ridden bed. Disgusting.“Morning babe,” Alec greeted with a smile on his face. He acted like it was the most normal thing ever
AlecI looked deep into her desire filled eyes. I was dying to kiss her lips which were just a few centimeters from mine, but I wanted her to beg for it. My mind was good at controlling my heart and feelings so I was able to resist the urge. She looked into my eyes expectantly and I could see lust in hers. Touching her very smooth cheek, I felt heat radiating from it. I smiled because that was a sign that I was getting somewhere on my mission to seduce her. “Do you want me to kiss you?” I asked leaning in closer to her. I knew she wanted it, but I wanted to hear it from her lips, in case she decided to deny this moment happened. It would be nice to tease her about it later.“Yes, Alec.” She said seductively and my blood rushed to a specific part of my body.“You do what, baby?” I teased really liking where this was going. It was nice to know I made her all hot and bothered.“I want you to kiss me, Alec.” She said, glancing at my lips.I leaned closer but instead of kissing her lips l
Alec’s POVAfter having breakfast, I went to see my friends, Mark and Silver. Unfortunately, they were preparing to leave yet I'd wanted to spend the day with them. After a short while, I asked them where they were going.“We missed a test on Thursday,” Silver said. “But the instructor agreed to let us do it today.”“How did you convince him?” If you missed a test at Sandonne University, It was hard to retake it because most of the lecturers wouldn't allow it.“Very easy,” Mark laughed. “You know what my looks are capable of.”“Thought he was male.”“Who said he isn't?” Silver laughed.“Oh,” I said. “I understand.”“No, man.” Silver said. “You don't, he's not gay if that's what you're thinking.”“So what's all this about?” They were really confusing me.“Okay, there's this clinic with a female doctor,” Mark said. “We got a fake medical report from her.”I silently hoped that wouldn't land the doctor into trouble.“You don't look yourself, man.” Silver sat next to me. “What's up?”“Not
When Lynn opened her bedroom door, she hugged me so tight that I could've stopped breathing. This meant one thing, there was a big problem. If she had been okay, she wouldn't have hugged me like that because she couldn't stand me.I hugged her back, telling her that everything would be okay even though I had no idea what her issues were. Somehow, the sobs reduced and after a while, I led her to the couch. I locked the front door and sat next to Lynn pulling her into my arms.I don't know why but I felt bad that she was in such a sad situation. I just hoped it wasn't Ross who had done that to her because I'd kill him. A person didn't hurt my roommate and just got away with it. I couldn't allow that. Had he taken advantage of her? It was a good thing that she was down, though. I got to hold her in my arms with her permission, and boy that felt good. If she thought I was good enough to comfort her, I was on the right path. She let herself be vulnerable in front of me and that meant one
I spent my Sunday Evening re watching Twilight as I waited for Alec who had gone to spend the day with his best friends. Edward Cullen will forever remain one of the hottest vampires in movie history for me. Throughout the whole movie, my whole attention was focused on his hot lean body, cute face and alluring voice. The other characters didn't matter much, all I wanted to see was Edward. I was glad to have some disruption because I was getting impatient with Alec. He had been gone the whole day, making me wonder what he was still doing with his friends. It was already ten pm.I have to admit that I was kind of jealous. My jealousy was unrealistic and ridiculous because those friends of his had known him for a long time. It was like somebody complaining about me spending too much time with Kari.All my friends were gone except Alec. I realized that night that I was supposed to mend all my broken friendships or I would end up alone. I couldn't do without friends and it was so hard for
I was the type of person who never set an alarm unless they had something really urgent to do the next day. I always woke up naturally and was a little bit too happy when I woke up at seven. It was a Monday, so I didn't waste any more time in bed but jumped out of bed as soon as I got out of the semi-conscious state of sleep.My first lecture that day was at ten a.m. but I had many things to do. I had not cleaned the room over the weekend so it was the first thing I did after waking up. I started with my bedroom, then living room and finished with the kitchen. I didn't dare go to Alec's room.Was he even back? I remembered that I had slept before he came so I knocked his door to know if he was in. No one answered so I tried the door handle, it turned out that he wasn't back.And I didn't have his number. Seriously? What type of roommate was I? What if something bad had happened to him? I didn't know any of his friends. I was really worried but I’d think of that later since I was runni
