Sarah's club activities are not really related to her studies. In fact, it isn't even acknowledged by the college since they or Sarah's club members are the ones who made that club happen. I mean, that must be hard since they have to use their own money and all if they want to do some activities. Not that it bothered me, but I find it troublesome since why would I join their club when I don't even join clubs in college? I don't have a lot of time on my hands.
"Hey, guys! Look who's here!"
Sarah announced when we went into this weird room. I honestly can't believe how they still manage to get a room or space in this college for their club since it's not officially registered. But Sarah told me that they got someone who's rich enough to buy the room for their club. It's surprising. Being in that room is overwhelming. This is my second time being here. The first time I went with Sarah, they kept asking me to join them. I mean, they seem nice. But I don't have the time to sit around like them. I'm not rich enough to act like I belong in their group. It feels uncomfortable.
"Mia! Are you finally joining us?"
A girl with frizzy hair asked as she gave me a big smile. Woah, she is so pretty. I don't remember her name, but I do remember her face. I just gave them a smile as I told them I was just following Sarah for today. Since she promised me that I'd meet my new roommate here, Hopefully she's not like that brat, Hayley.
"Woah, I never thought you would be so into that."
Another girl joined in the conversation as I sat there, looking confused. What is she talking about? When the girl with red hair spoke to me like that, Everyone was looking at me. There were seven people in that room, including Sarah and me. The girl with frizzy hair, the girl with red hair, and another girl with a buzz cut and glasses. The other two are both guys. One tanned man who appears bored with the conversation and another guy who's staring at me with curiosity. I have seen him before and his stares still scare me sometimes.
"Wait, what the hell happened to you yesterday?"
Sarah finally spoke as she yanked my collar to get a better look. I was indeed confused since I don't really understand what she meant by that.
"What's wrong with your neck? It looks nasty. Did someone hurt you?"
Sarah said as she eyed me with curiosity, because she knows I don't really have time to be fooling around with anyone. So she must be surprised to see that. Well, I did too, since I never really thought that Lucas' grip would leave such a visible mark. No one really said anything to me today, so I wondered if they even noticed.
"Ah.. It's nothing. Some random drunkard just got angry at me for telling him off last night. It doesn't even hurt. Why did it leave a mark? I wonder.."
I sigh as I continue to look at my reflection in the mirror, that the red-headed girl gave me. I couldn't really hear what the others were saying since I was too focused on the reflection that I saw in the mirror. What the fuck is happening?
"You guys are here!"
Frizzy Girl exclaimed as four other people joined us in the room, and to my surprise, three of them were none other than the people I met yesterday. Yes. It's them. And the other one is a girl. She looks so pretty as she gave me a smile. Woah, that was my first time seeing her here too.
"Eh? What is this nut doing here?"
Lucas, he said, as he gave me a smirk. I seriously don't know what is wrong with him since he was so freaking scary the last time I met him. So seeing him act like this in front of his friends...is uncomfortable. He's a two-faced bitch.
"You know her?"
With his brow furrowed, the guy who had been in the room since earlier asked. Thomas just gave me a surprising look, while Simon gave me a wave before starting to say hello.
"Apparently..."
Lucas trailed off as he continued to study my expression. He must've noticed my neck since I was using a mirror to look at it. He doesn't seem sorry, not even a bit. Wait, why are they here? Are they also the club members? I can't believe how small this world is. It seems like all the club members have gathered, and me being there somehow got me feeling uncomfortable. I don't belong here. But Sarah told me to wait since she told me my roommate would be coming anytime soon. I separated myself from the group as they were busy discussing something club related. I don't want to be in their way. Still, I could feel eyes watching my every move. It was suffocating being there.
"Why are you here?"
Again, This fucker has no sense of distance, as he sat next to me for who knows how long, staring into my face. I decided to ignore him since I don't really think that I should tell him anything at all since who the fuck is he?
"Sorry about last night. Did you get home okay?'
He added, somewhat apologetically. Well, at least he did realise his mistake and is now apologizing. I don't really want to think about it much, so I told him to just forget that it ever happened.
"Mia, I just got a text from your supposed roommate. That bitch says that she has already found a roommate. She's so annoying. After promising to meet us today. What a bitch."
Sarah grumbles as she sighs in annoyance. What am I supposed to do now?
"Oh, you're looking for a place to stay?"
The blonde girl, whose name I had never heard of yet, said to me, looking curious.
"Yeah..."
I said, as I don't know what else to do. What time is it? Will I be okay? I already send money to my mother so I don't have enough time if I don't find a room anytime soon.
"Why don't you come to our place?"
I heard Simon's voice as I stared at him in dumbfound. Is he seriously telling me to go to their house or whatever it is with his boyfriend around? I don't think I wanted to be in the same room as them. It's making me feel uncomfortable. I didn't mean it in a bad way, I just feel uncomfortable to be in the same room as them since I accidentally know about their secrets. Thomas would hate me for that, right? That would be so awkward for us.
"Why would she go with you? Just go with me."
The blonde girl replied as I stared at them in confusion. What is happening right now? Sarah stared at me, as if saying that I should accept the blond girl's offer. I mean, I wanted to. so badly.
"No. She's going with me. "
Then Lucas spoke, and that made everyone confused and shocked. I was cursing him inside my head for saying such an absurd thing. Fuck him. Oh God no. Why would I want to be with him? After what he had done, I didn't want to even think about being in the same room as him.
