Chapter 7 You and I

"I can't help but feel troubled if you ask me that stupid question."
Lucas, he said as he stared at me with amused eyes. Well, I was just asking since him being with me today seems so absurd. We had literally just met, so why would he go so far to walk me back home?
"It's because you've been bugging me since earlier. I can't help but feel troubled myself."
I said as he smirked. He was walking next to me and was chuckling lightly. Just what is it that is so funny? I seriously can't get along with this guy.
"Well, you could say that I am interested in getting to know you more. What about you?"
Lucas added, and I wondered if it was that simple for him to decide that he wants to learn more about someone. How did they decide that so easily? It must be nice to be able to talk to anyone without trouble.
"Why aren't you saying anything?"
Lucas added when I didn't respond to him. Well, I don't really know what to say, so I'm honestly in a pinch right now. I stopped walking and he turned around, staring at me with confusion and curiosity. We were staring at each other without saying anything. Well, I don't really know what to say since this kind of situation has never occurred to me before.
"Well, why did you feel like saying that? It is absurd to just think about it. I mean, why would you want to know me more when this could possibly be our last time meeting each other?"
I dared him and couldn't help but feel curious about his answer. For a moment, it seemed like he was hesitating, but when he finally looked into my eyes, I noticed something really weird. His eyes were as if they were telling me that he was lonely. I don't even know if I'm being delusional or not, but it really does seem like that.
"You sure do have a lot of questions."
Lucas sighs as I frown in confusion. Well, of course I do have a lot of questions considering him being such a strange fella.
"Since we're the only ones who know about their secrets, might as well get along with each other, yeah?"
Lucas chuckled as he said that. I see. He still wanted to keep me on guard. He doesn't want me to talk about those "secrets." I can't help but feel... I don't know what to feel. I feel like I've been used but nothing really happened yet, so I don't really know how to explain these feelings.
"I already promised that I wouldn't say anything. You think I'm lying?"
I challenged him with my eyes as he just stared at me with amusement in his eyes. Still, he glared back at me, causing me to back away from him. What kind of situation are we in right now?
"Why would I believe you when we barely know each other? That is not enough for me to trust your silly words."
When Lucas replied, his face was different from before. I was wondering if he had been acting all this time when we were together earlier. Because the face he had right now is the face someone would make when they are angry at someone. I mentally curse myself for being stupid for saying all those unnecessary things to him.
"What do you think I would do if somehow, that little mouth of yours ended up blabbing about Simon and Thomas's relationship to anyone..."
Lucas said, as I was confused with his gesture at first. But soon, I was terrified when his hands found their way to my throat, slightly clenching his fingers as he continued to study my horrified expression. This dude is seriously freaking me out. I tried to push him away, but his grip was too strong. I even tried calling out his name, just maybe to make him awake from this side of him that is terrifying me, but he didn't move an inch. Not until I began hyperventilating, trying hard to breathe.
"I'm watching you."
Lucas added before finally letting go of my throat. That was intense. scary. Fuck you, jerk! I did curse him out, in my mind. Since I can't really bring the words to my mouth, It feels like my lips are being glued together. I can't utter a single word. And I'm really grateful that he decided to leave me. I was even more terrified of him than the fact that I was walking back to the dorm alone. He was stupidly terrifying, and I hope this will be the last time we EVER see each other. I would end up dead if we somewhat crossed paths.
"Just another great day."
I sighed sarcastically as I began walking back to the dorm. And shit, I seriously forgot to print Hayley's documents. Gah! I seriously can't deal with her right now. My head is about to blow from all this lack of sleep and tiredness. Lucky for me, she was already asleep when I got back. Great, what could go wrong if I told her that I forgot? What could she even do to me despite just cursing me? Eh, I don't need to worry about such a brat.
I did say that, but when I woke up the next morning, all my assignments that were almost finished were torn up. Like someone in a rage did this on purpose. Who wouldn't lose their mind if they saw this the first thing in the morning, right? I spent a lot of time trying to finish that assignment. Well, I'm almost there, but still. Who would do such an absurd thing? Hayley was the only person in the room, so it must be her. But why? Why would that brat do such a thing? I was losing my mind. I just want to scream in her face for doing this. I was looking for my phone to call her, but I was abruptly stopped when I heard voices outside the room. What the hell is happening early in the morning?
"You need to get out of this room right now!"
I stood there, shocked, when the dorm chief told me to pack my things and leave. In the corner of my eyes, Hayley was crying as she was being hugged by someone.
Just what the heck happened?
