"Huh?"
Yes. Everyone besides Lucas shared the same expression as me when he said that. Just what the hell is he thinking? Why did he even suggest such a thing?
"Since when did you two get so close?"
Thomas raised an eyebrow as I matched his expression well. I mean, exactly! Why would he say that?
"Why would she go with a guy? When she should go with me, who's a girl, she would feel safer with me, right?"
The blond girl smiled at me as she gave me a reassuring smile. YES! I wanted to scream that so badly, but Lucas pulled my hand as I stumbled into his arms. I'm mentally cursing him for whatever he's doing right now.
"No. You're going to devour her if she goes with you tonight."
The blond girl laughs back, saying, Why shouldn't she. Well, it does make me wonder what the heck they are talking about, but still. Why is he not letting me go?
"And you're not going to devour her?"
The Blond Girl challenged as I can't believe that they're talking about me as if I wasn't there. And what the heck is this devouring thingy they're talking about? Are they some kind of animal or something?
"It won't matter if it's me, right?"
Lucas smirks as he gazes at me before tightening his grip around my body. Why on earth are you doing this? I just wanted to scream at him so badly and push him in front of everyone, but I was terrified when he whispered to me, "I'm watching you."
"Yeah....."
I managed to say as I took another breath, finally breaking free from Lucas's arms. Sarah was staring at me as if I had gone crazy. I don't really know anymore. It feels weird how I am so terrified of him when I know that I shouldn't be.
"What? Are you two in a relationship or something?"
Frizzy asked as she eyed Lucas disapprovingly. I wonder what that looks mean...
"Yep."
Lucas answered as he told everyone that we were leaving. I was so stunned that I wasn't able to say anything but just being pulled away from the group. I still can't believe that this is happening. What does he want from me? As we were walking, I was deep in my thoughts. Is he seriously thinking about letting me crash in his place? Am I going to be okay?
"Why are you so quiet?"
Lucas's voice broke the silence between us, and I am truly grateful for that.
"Why are you doing this?"
I asked as Lucas just looked at me without saying anything. I wonder what he is thinking now. For now, I couldn't care less about everything since I badly needed a place to stay. Or else, I don't know where I should go tonight. When Hayley saw Lucas enter the room to help me carry my belongings, she glared at me. I just don't understand what is wrong with that bitch for her to hate me so much. I was really grateful that Lucas was here. Despite being a jerk, he could also be nice. I hope he keeps on being nice.
"This is your room. Just call me if you need anything. I'll be in the living room."
Lucas said as he put down my stuff. I am still amazed at how big his house is, and the fact that he's living alone is even scarier since this house is too big for just one person to live in. And it was comfortably pleasing. It was so nice. I can't believe how lucky I feel that I decided to follow him here. I got a bunch of messages from Sarah asking me if I'm doing okay or if Lucas has done anything to me yet. I just told her that nothing happened and that he was a good guy. Sarah still doesn't want to believe me since, to her, Lucas is a player. So she was worried that I was one of his victims. That was funny, after seeing that sight of him. I wouldn't want to get involved with him. As long as I get a place to sleep, that is enough. I will work more jobs and avoid being in the house when he's around. I'm going to be okay.
"Are you done unpacking?"
Lucas stood at the door, somewhat leaving me speechless. I know that this is his house, but can't he even knock? Everywhere he goes, he doesn't make much noise, and it was terrifying to find him suddenly standing next to me. breathing down on my neck. Like, what the hell is wrong with him?
"Come on. I made dinner."
Lucas mentioned as he told me to follow him to the living room. Well, isn't he being nice? I can't believe how he is behaving so strangely compared to how he was before... I mean, first, he was so nice. And then he choked me, giving me warning and shit. And now, cooking dinner? That was something.
"Thank you for helping me. I don't know what I would do if it wasn't for your help."
I said truthfully, finally giving him a genuine smile. We were sitting in the living room watching TV. Well, he was sitting on the couch wearing a bored expression on his face as I sat on the floor since I was peeling an orange. And it felt so weird to sit next to him on the couch. I just finally realised this. The situation we are in right now is making me suffocate from nervousness. He is a guy. And I'm a girl. Alone in a room What could possibly go wrong?
"Come here."
Lucas said as I turned my gaze towards him. I am somewhat confused by what he means by that. I thought that maybe he was talking on his phone, but to my surprise, he was staring at me. Of course, who wouldn't feel weird after hearing him say that? It's like he's inviting me to something...
"What? You want some orange too?"
I asked, trying to ease the nervousness I'm feeling right now. Relax, Mia. He's not going to do anything to you. I kept telling myself that to calm my nerves. Fuck, why am I shaking now? It's not the time to be afraid of him after deciding to live with him. Oh my goodness.
"Yeah, give me some."
I gave it to him exactly as he requested. But he didn't even budge from his seat. I was staring at him with confusion; he was going to make me his maid or something?
"Wh—"
I was about to say something, but Lucas suddenly pulled me towards him. Causing me to lose my balance and knock my head against his. What the fuck is wrong with this guy? I was about to say something, but he decided to push me again. But this time, this position is really weird. He was on top of me, groaning in pain, saying that his forehead hurt. Well, he did look cute, and I couldn't help but burst into laughter. Seeing him right now, it was a sight indeed.
"Time to pay rent."
I looked at him, still confused. What did he mean by that? Paying rent... now? How? What? I was preoccupied with questions when I noticed his face was getting closer to mine. And, of course, who wouldn't panic if he did that right away? I was shocked beyond words. Like, what the hell is he thinking?
"Luc—"
I seriously can't believe how my stomach feels so full when his lips touch mine. I can't believe how soft his lips are, and I can't believe I'm in this situation right now.
What the heck is happening?
"Wai—"
I struggled under his arms as he tried to enter my mouth, with his tongue. This is so embarrassing I could die. And what is this weird sound coming out from my mouth? Why is he doing this? I could feel his hands travelling down the inside of my clothes, and that left me squirming. Which is weird because why the heck am I feeling like this? I could feel his hot breath on my neck as he started to suck it gently, moaning something that I could not hear since my head was filled with questions.
"Open your mouth."
Lucas said breathlessly, as I could feel my cheeks getting warmer. Oh my god. What is happening to me?
