One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Byron’s Point of View

“I like you, Byron.” He uttered.

What the heck is he saying?

I scoffed, “Say what? Have you finally gone mad?”

He looked at the floor, “You don’t need to answer me right away. I can wait.”

“Wait for what?” I put my hands on my waist.

“Wait for your answer,” he replied.

I snigger, “I will give you my answer now. My answer is no and that will never change.”

He nodded, “I’ll come again.” He smiled and left my room.

Argh! Did he lose his sanity? What’s wrong with him? I am a man! Can’t he see that? We can’t be together! And my feelings for him are just for a friend, I can’t like him the way he likes me. We can’t be together. Aish! Can’t we just stay friends? Why is he doing this? After disappearing, he will just appear and say whatever comes to his mind. Damn it!

Knock! Knock!

My brows furrowed before I approached the door and opened it, “What else do you have to say?! You still haven’t left?-” I stopped and my eyes widened when I realized that it wasn’t James who knocked, it was Tardy.

Tardy pouted, “What’s wrong with you? I didn’t do anything to you, why are you so mad?”

I breath a sigh, “Haa, fuck. I’m sorry, Tardy.”

“Whatever,” she shrugged. “I just wanted to ask if the guy who just went downstairs was your friend?”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“No, he’s not my friend,” I answered, trying to not be obvious that I’m mad at that guy.

She tilted her head and crossed her arms, “Oh, really?”

I closed my eyes and sighed, “Yeah. Just go back to Alyn’s room, okay? He will be jealous if he catches you here.”

“Hmm… Okay!” She smiled, “Just know that I’m always here, hmm? I’m always ready to listen, my ears are always open. You can come to me if you need someone to talk to, okay? Well, then…” she turned around and waved her hand as she walked away.

I took a deep breath before I closed the door and lay down on the bed. I closed my eyes but I opened it immediately when suddenly what happened to James and I in his house suddenly played in my mind.

I sat down and pulled my hair, “Damn it! How dare he do that to my body?! Argh, fuck! After doing that he will say that he likes me? What kind of bullshit was that? Does he see me as a woman?! Fuck him!”

One month passed and James didn’t show up again. Maybe his brain has come back to normal and he realizes that we’re really just friends. Also, because he didn’t show up for a month, I was able to smile again.

I’m here now in the bedroom and playing league of legends. I was surprised when suddenly there was a knock on the door causing the opponent to kill my character. I stood up and ruffled my hair before I walked closer to the door to open it. My world seemed to stop when I saw James outside the room carrying a bouquet.

“What the fuck… Are you doing here again?”

Maxine’s Point of View

“Alyn, do you want us to eat lunch together?” I asked and looked at him.

We are going to my classroom now. He always takes me to the classroom so I’m a bit used to the way other students look at us.

He looked at me, “Sure,” he smiled. “I’ve always wanted that, you don’t have to ask.”

“Hmm, okay!” I smiled.

We stopped walking when we were in front of the door of my classroom. Alyn looked inside the classroom before he looked at me.

“Go inside, I’ll pick you up later so we can have lunch together, okay?” He said.

I nodded and replied, “Okay.”

“Good,” he said then kissed me on the forehead.

~~~

The three classes are over, the bell has rung signaling that it was the time for lunch break. I patched my things up and after that I just sat in my chair to wait for the arrival of Alyn.

20 minutes have passed but Alyn is still not here. Did something happen to him? I shook my head. What am I thinking, maybe their prof just let them out late so he’s still not here until now.

“-ey, hey!”

I sat up straight and looked around. I was still in the classroom, I fell asleep without realizing it. When I remembered that someone had touched me before and I turned to it with a smile, but my smile disappeared when I saw angela.

“Y-You?” I peeked behind her but there was no one.

I looked at my wristwatch to see the time, 12:58 PM. The lunch time will be over soon. Is Alyn still not here?

Angela heaved a sigh, “Here…” she put some bread on my table that I just stared at, “Eat this. You can’t go with an empty stomach before class starts again.”

“Did you see Alyn?” I asked.

She shook her head, “Why? Are you waiting for him, here?”

I nodded, “He said he will pick me up but still not here until now. Nothing happened while I was asleep, right?”

She nodded, “Yep. Just eat it first, I’ll go back to my seat. Maybe Alyn is taking care of something important so he didn’t pick you up, just wait for him to go home later.” She said and went back to her seat.

I sighed and ate the bread that Angela gave me. While eating, I can’t stop thinking about Alyn. This is the first time this has happened. If he fixes something important, can’t he message me so that I know and I don’t look like a fool waiting for him?

Haa, nevermind. I’ll just talk to him later.

The class ended. I went to Alyn’s classroom but I only saw her cousins. When I talked to Louis, he said that Alyn had left earlier. What if Alyn went to my classroom? Gosh. I immediately got off and ran back to my classroom. I gasped and stopped when I saw that only one person was there: our class president who locked the door.

“Damn, where is he?” I asked myself.

I took a deep breath before starting to walk to leave the building. Did Alyn forget about me so he left first?

I went to the bathroom first because I suddenly felt like urinating. After I peed I went out of the bathroom and started walking again to leave the school. I was in the parking lot when I saw a man and a woman kissing in the dark. I just shrugged and ignored it, I was about to get into the van when my heart suddenly started beating faster. I closed the van door again and walked closer to the two people kissing. As I got closer and closer my heart beat faster and faster. I stopped walking just five steps between me and the two. I took my phone out of my pocket and turned on the flashlight. It was as if cold water had fallen on me when I saw who was there.

“A-Alyn?” I mentioned his name. When I looked at the girl it was like this was the first time I saw her at school.

“M-Max, what are you doing here?”

I was no longer able to answer Alyn when my foot spontaneously moved to run away from there. I didn’t ride in the car, and I didn’t know where my feet would take me. As far as I know I don’t stop running as my tears didn’t stop to come out.

What the fuck is that? Why was Alyn kissing another girl? Am I really one of his playthings?

Fuck it.
