Chapter Eighty
Maxine’s Point of View
The next day, I went to school again with Alyn. He even took me to my classroom before he went to his classroom.
I can’t believe that the man who has always been my enemy even in small things is now my boyfriend. Well, I didn’t even know I was going to fall for him. But who wouldn’t fall for his handsome face? Hmm, I also saw his soft side, that’s probably the reason I fell for him.
I don’t regret how I feel for him now. In fact, I’m really happy. Maybe it’s not bad to fall in love and have a relationship with the enemy, isn’t it?
“So?”
I looked up and saw Ferries and Angela was behind her.
I raised an eyebrow, “What?”
“Don’t ‘what’ me,” she crossed her arms over her chest. “How does it feel to date the king, hmm?” Then she smiled, a playful one.
“You’ve been smiling like crazy before, so maybe it feels good to date an Alyn Crawford,” Angela said.
I let out a sigh, “I just thought of something funny that’s why I smiled.”
Ferries rolled her eyes, “Whatever. Class is about to start. Are you going to eat with Alyn later?”Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Hmm…” I bit my lower lip before answering, “Yes.”
“Hmp! ‘Kay,” she replied and turned to leave the classroom. Angela returned to her seat.
Is Ferries still mad at me? Or are we already friends? Based on what she showed me, he didn’t seem interested in fighting anymore. But I hope she really isn’t because I don’t want trouble anymore. I want a peaceful environment. Maybe no one will touch me because of what Alyn said on the first day of our relationship, right? Haa, I hope so.
“How’s your day?” Alyn asked as we both ate.
I would like to suggest that we don’t eat here because there are so many people watching us, but I can’t tell him. He might just say to me, “I’m with you, so why are you scared?” But I’m not really scared, I just don’t like being watched while eating because it’s awkward. You don’t know if you should have a big bite on your food, or should just be small. We don’t know, maybe later they will take a picture of me to make fun of my face.
Many are afraid of Alyn so no one touched me, but I knew they were all mad at me. When I even confessed to Alyn I heard a lot of hate comments. What else can we do now that we’re together? Probably more people are mad with me and they also say a lot to me.
One day as I was walking down the hallway alone, I heard the name Elaine again. Should I ask Alyn? Haa, but I don’t want him to think I’m jealous. But who is that woman that I always hear everywhere I go? It seems like they prefer Elaine to be Alyn’s girlfriend than me. That made me sad.
“What’s wrong? Didn’t you like your food?” Alyn asked. When I looked at him there was a trace of concern on his face.
Well, maybe the more important thing now is that he loves me. I’m his girlfriend, and I’m always with him, even at school and at the Mansion.
I shook my head, “No.”
“Really? You can stop pretending. I know you’re a picky eater. Just tell me what you want to eat, I’ll order it for you,” he said.
Damn. I can’t imagine Alyn being able to order for someone else. I mean, every time we ate, he used to just sit and Louis and others would order the food.
“Hmm, yeah? Can you line up for me?” I challenged him.
He turned to the line before looking at me again, “Of course, why not?” His responded. You won’t even see any emotions on his face. “As soon as they see me approaching the queue, they will immediately give way to me. So, of course I can,” then he smirked.
Aish, this evil. That’s why he’s so brave, ha. Tch.
“Nevermind, I’m okay with my food,” I said.
“Don’t be shy,” he put his elbow on top of the table and put his chin on his palm. “Just say it, Honey.”
“H-Honey?!” I let go of my spoon and fork because of what he said. I also felt the sudden warmth of my face. Damn. Since when did I change my name to Honey?
He pouted, “So, you don’t like it when I call you Honey? Then, what about sugar?”
“Pfft~ Sugar?” I giggled. Where did the things that came out of his mouth come from? Gosh, so adorable. Not the words, but Alyn. He’s adorable.
He clenched his eyes, “Aish, that stupid Sid. He said you will like it.” He asked Sid of all people? Oh, my gosh. I can’t stop laughing. “Stop laughing, you’re hurting my feelings,” he said with a poker face.
I stopped and bit my lower lip, “Okay, sorry. It’s just… you’re so funny.”
“Whatever,” he sat properly. “At least, I made you laugh,” then he smiled.
Gosh, if he smiles like that, my heart will explode.
I looked away, “Uhm… so, what about you? You like your food?”
“Yeah,” he answered. “I can eat everything as long as I’m with someone I love.”
I turned to him slowly, “Who… is that someone?”
What if I’m not that person? Damn, I’m just going to think that I’m not the ‘someone’ he’s referring to, I felt as if a needle was piercing my chest.
He tilted his head, “Do I really have to say it out loud? It’s you, you’re the one I love.”
“Uh… I-I am? Ha-Ha,” I scratched my head and averted my eyes.
Damn, now that I heard it. Why am I feeling shy? And my heart is pounding. Aish, when will I get used to it?
“Pfft- your face is red,” he said.
I covered my face because of what he said, “Let’s just eat.”
“How will you eat with your face covered?” He asked.
Ah, right. Maxine, you idiot. Get it together! He’s your boyfriend now, there’s nothing to be ashamed of.
I removed my hands that were covering my face. I looked at Alyn, “Let’s eat.”
He smiled, “Okay, darling.”
Honey, Sugar? No, I like Darling more! I want him to call me that one more time.
I glanced at him and looked back at my food. I glanced again and looked back at my food and glanced at him again. My eyes widened when our eyes met.
“What? Just say it,” he uttered.
I averted my eyes, “It’s nothing.”
“Aren’t you comfortable eating with me?” He asked.
I immediately looked at him and shook my head, “No, no. Don’t even think about it.”
“Then, why do you keep glancing at me?” He crossed his arms.
“Can’t I?” I sighed, “Well, I… I want you to call me Darling one more time.”
He giggled, “I can call you that whenever you want, darling.”
I bit my lower lip and looked away. My gosh! I think we need an ambulance right now. My heart is about to explode!
“You’re so… pretty,” he uttered and put the strand of my hair in the back of my ear. “You should smile often, hmm?”
I licked my lower lip and nodded, “Uh-Hmm.”
“Good,” he smiled and withdrew his hand. “Let’s go home together, and sleep together.”
“Sleep together, do you mean…” I couldn’t finish what I was going to say when a smirk curved on Alyn’s face.
“What? Do you want the other meaning?” He asked.
“N-No, it’s not like that,” I shook my head.
“We can just sleep and nothing else, so don’t think about anything,” he said.
“No kissing?” I asked. Just really sleep?
He nodded, “No kissing.”
I pouted. What the heck is that? I feel annoyed all of a sudden. Tch, so he doesn’t want to kiss, huh?
