There is no freaking way that Hiro saw Spencer just now. Maybe he’s just missing Spencer. That’s why he thought it was him. I am a hundred percent sure that Spencer is in London. Of course, he is. His family is there. I’m sure that his parents wanted him to study in one of the finest schools in England.
It just can’t be.
I’m not going to let Spencer ruin my life again, not in this college life. Besides, Nate and I didn’t see him, only Hiro, so there’s still a possibility that it’s not Spencer but only Hiro’s imagination.
Hiro and Spencer were great friends when we were in high school. Maybe Hiro just missed him.
I dusted off my thoughts and we all went back to our respective dorms. I’m pretty hoping that my roommate is already there now. Nate’s room is only two rooms from mine and I’m glad that we are all on the same floor.
As I entered the room, the light was switched on and there were still some paper bags on the counter. I think that my roommate is here since I can hear the water running from the bathroom.
I’m excited about meeting him.
As I waited for him to finish, I looked to see the pantry to see if I had some sweets in there, since Nate didn’t buy us ice cream for dessert. I was checking at the fridge when I heard someone clear his throat.
“Hi,”
I halted when I heard his voice.
It’s familiar.
I put back the chocolate and slowly turned around to face him.
I just hope that I’m wrong. That I am just imagining things. That I am hearing things.
As I faced him, he gave me a grin like a devil and my face dropped.
I wish I could turn back and not wish that I was excited about meeting my roommate. He was not who I was expecting to be. Everything that I said, I take it back.
I clenched my fist because he was grinning at me like he was teasing. He was leaning on the bathroom door with his arms crossed and dressed up in only a white bathrobe as his hair was wet dripping down to his face.
“Miss me?” he teased, and I glared at him. If only I could punch someone right now in the face, he would be the first one. I was just glaring at him and he looked at me with boring eyes. The room was silent, then he rolled his eyes and turned around to go back inside the bathroom, closing the door with a loud thud.
I stomped my feet and walked to where my bed was and climbed onto it. Damn it. This is happening. I was okay that Spencer and I were throwing fire and flames when we were in high school, but I was not expecting him that we would be roommates, because of the fact that we are now living in the same room!
He will make my life miserable again!
Well, I let him, but I’m not letting him do it again. Not this time.
After a while, Spencer returned from the bathroom, dressed in his pajamas. I locked my gaze on him as he hopped into his bed and turned to face me. This little devil just grinned at me like it was nothing.
Is he insulting me right now? Really? This night?
“Okay, Satan’s mistress. Tell me, what’s the catch?” I suddenly asked.
“What catch?”
“Why are you here? Why are you rooming with me? Why aren’t you in London? You were supposed to be there!” I snapped, but there was no emotion for him. I need answers right now. Did he come back just to annoy me even more? Didn’t he already make my life miserable in high school?
He sighs, “Chill, loser. I’m going to answer those. First, I’m here because I enrolled here and I wanted to study here. Second, it’s not my fault that the school put us as roommates. I have nothing to do with it. Third, I just got from London yesterday.”
“You knew that we were going to be living in the same room?!”
“Yes. I saw my name on the bulletin board beside yours and where do you want me to stay then?’
“I- I don’t know! Some hotel or anywhere, but not here.”
He chuckled as he stood up from his bed and fixed his duvet, “You’re stupid. No wonder you only got a 3.0 GPA.” He hissed and climbed to his bed once again, covering his whole body with the comforter.
That’s it.
Being class valedictorian was my goal when I was in high school, but since Spencer and I like to compete in every activity, he got it. I only got second place and he is the only one to blame.
He was about to close his eyes when I rushed onto him and grabbed his wrist. He was taken aback by my actions. I dragged him to the door as soon as he stood up, forcing him to leave, but he protested.
‘What the hell are you doing?!” he yelled,
“Get out!”
“Are you out of your mind?! This is my room too! Kieran, let me go!”
“I was here first!”
I let go of his wrist as he swayed it away from me. When he is out of my grip, he massages his wrists as if I had caused them to bleed.
“You know what, you can have the room by yourself.” He muttered as he walked to his nightstand to grab his phone. I feel guilty for grabbing him, but no words are left in my mouth. I’m speechless and everything escalated quickly. I wanted to apologize but Spencer had already closed the door. I wanted to follow him but my feet wouldn’t even move.
My action just now may be childish, but I can’t help it. Spencer had a mouth and, with that attitude, I can’t help but feel like a super-sensitive type of person. Since I moved to the school where Spencer is, we have never become friends and have only become each other's nightmares.
Damn it. Now I can’t wait for what Spencer might do tomorrow, just for his sweet revenge.
“So annoying,” everybody flinched when Nate dropped his books on top of the table. We were currently having our breakfast in the cafeteria when Nate arrived with a bad morning. He slumped down on his seat and put his chin on the top of his hand. Everybody was confused why he was acting like this, though it’s not typical for Nate for having a bad day.“I fell asleep last night and I didn’t finish the book that I was reading. Damn it,” he added as he opened the book that he was talking about.Hiro and Finn continue their breakfast when suddenly someone caught our attention. As usual. You already know who it is. They both look up to Spencer, who’s looking for a vacant seat. Hiro, being the bubbly nice guy, waved his right hand for Spencer to see him. He pointed out that there was still another vacant seat beside me but Spencer’s smile faded away when he sees that he would be sitting next to the pe
I jumped on my bed after I dunk my head in the tub filled with cold water. Damn it. I should’ve known that it was his trap to get even from the incident last night. I hate him so much. How come I didn’t even notice that the little devil was already pouring hot sauce on my drink? Why am I so stupid?! I was so busy with that stupid luggage of his and I fell into his trap. What the hell am I doing?I picked up my phone beside me when it received a message. As I look at it, it was from Nate.Where are you? We are already here at the cafeteria. The text says. I looked up to the clock and it was quarter to seven. I should get my breakfast now but since I know that Spencer is already in there with them, I decided that I should think of something before I go and see them. I can’t let him slip off after he put hot sauce on my beloved coffee. He can’t get away from my wrath. Just kidding, I should think of something. S
I was just watching every move he makes so that I know what he was doing. When he entered the bathroom, he threw the corgi plushie inside the washing machine and then the dryer after.I furrowed my brows because he was just focusing on what he is doing when he should be attacking me with names and harsh words instead! What is wrong with him? When the plushie was already dry, he exited the bathroom and walked into his bed. He placed it above his pillow as he went back to his luggage to find something again.Is he finding the one I threw earlier?Well, I guess that’s a yes.He was looking at every corner like it was his life depending on it. I w
Spencer’s POVAfter I got back from my job, I immediately went back to my room. When I arrived in front of my door, I took a deep sigh before entering since I have to deal with my beloved roommate. He’s annoying and I really hate him. Well, we both hated each other since high school. As I opened it, I saw Kieran sipping his coffee like there was something going on.Our eyes didn’t meet but I know that there’s something fishy here. He was drinking his coffee like he did something. I automatically walked to my bed only to find out that my luggage earlier was still above it. I know that there’s something missing because I took care of it for a really long time.I’m tired from my work and I don’t want to argue with him late at night.
Spencer’s POVIt has been days since Finn ask me for a coffee and it’s been days since my last argument with Kieran. After that day, I didn’t talk to him. He just looks my way but I never dare to spat at him. I only ignored him.The college school life will start tomorrow and I can’t wait to bury all of my time in the library and studying instead of locking myself in my dorm with my great roommate and hanging out outside the campus.I don’t like going out anyway but I have no choice but to do it since I don’t want to be near Kieran.After that fight, I just gave him a small smirk like I was more insulting him so that it can trigger him more. He can’t see me that I’m
Kieran's POVDamn it.After they all left, I remained in my seat. I loosen my fist that was under the table and pick out my phone from my pocket since it's ringing.I looked at the caller and it was Hiro.“Hello?”“Meet me at my dorm after class,” he said and he hung up the phone. I furrowed my brows at his tone because he sounds weird. He’s not the typical cheerful one right now but it doesn’t matter. What matters is that I can’t stand Spencer anymore. There’s no day that we didn’t yell or scream at each other.I know it has been
Kieran’s POV“What do you mean?” I curiously ask him.“Let’s play hide n seek.” he smiled devilishly, “I will be the brain and you will be the hands. You see, I know that something is going on with Spencer but he’s good at hiding, I just know because Spencer and Nate had some secrets that we will never know. Have you noticed that Nate always prioritizes Spencer over anything?”I slowly nodded my head.“See? And do you know where Spencer is right now?” I just look at him and shake my head no because no words were coming out in my mouth, “He is with Nate. Nate told you earlier that you aren’t allowed to hang out with them unless you
Kieran POV“So what do you think, Spence? Shall we give it a try?” I asked him once again as I handed him my hand. He looked at it and he went back into my eyes.As our hands collided, he smiled so brightly again and slowly nodded. Our hands collide for seconds since I don’t want to let it go. His hands were so soft that I could hold them forever and didn't want to let go.It was soft.The smile disappeared from Spencer’s face and he let go of my hand. He averted his gaze away from me when I came back from reality. Damn it. With just a single smile and handshake? Does my world stop? What the hell.“That’s kind of awkwar
Kieran’s POVOnce Spencer woke up from his sleep, he didn’t notice that I was still inside the room. I woke up early so that he won’t freak out when he sees me beside him and I’m glad that he’s a heavy sleeper. Or maybe I just woke up really early.I’m wide awake all night because a lot of things were running through my mind. Spencer had been calling this Kash name nonstop. Are we talking about the same person? What if are we really talking about the same person?With all my curiosity, I tried to sneak into his phone. I know it’s bad and I’m invading his privacy but what if Spencer’s just doing these things because he had some past with my brother? I just don’t imagine that my brother and my
Spencer’s POV Waking up with a headache and a little hangover. I didn't realize that I drank too much. I don't even remember what happened last night. Except for Kieran’s bomb surprises. It was awful and embarrassing to everyone who was at the party last night. The only thing that I remember is that I left last night after I paid Kieran for the cake that he brought me and I went directly to the club to spend the night. I made out with other guys but didn’t dare to sleep with them. I don’t know why I didn’t sleep with them, usually, I spent the night with guys after I drink but now, I woke up in my dorm apartment. I never r
Kieran’s POVIt’s been two hours since Spencer left.I know that he needed space for what I did on his birthday. Damn it. If I just used my brain for once, maybe none of this had happened.“You don’t know behind everything, Kieran. You don’t know what happened to Spencer,”“You don’t know behind everything, Kieran. You don’t know what happened to Spencer,”“You don’t know behind everything, Kieran. You don’t know what happened to Spencer,”Nate’s words were running repe
Spencer’s POV“You see, you are not the angel that everybody looks up to. You are not that innocent. I already know you, Spencer and now, everybody knows you as well. Our friends knew what you were up to. Don’t worry, I gave you birth control just in case you get pregnant by some random dude you slept with and paid you after,” he said after I opened the present that Kieran gave me.Truth is, I don’t know what to feel. I feel betrayed, embarrassed, angry, sad, but out of all everything, I felt happy for once. Even just for seconds.After Kieran said those words, I still held on to the gift and held it tightly. I looked up to meet his eyes and he was smiling devilishly. I slowly smiled genuinely at him.
Kieran’s POV I can’t wait to go back to my dorm because I wanted to change some nice casual clothes. It is already 5:30 and I walked faster just to get into my room. As I opened the door, there was no sign of Spencer. Maybe he went out? I placed my bag on top of my study table and instantly changed my clothes when I spotted something new. As I turned around to Spencer’s bed, there was an opened gift. I don’t want to be nosy but when I looked at it, it was a Rolex watch. I smirked. I know where
Kieran’s POVIt was already late at night and I’m still working on my homework. I’m still alone in my room because Spencer always came back late. I don’t know where he’s been going every day and I don’t care. After what happened earlier, I never saw Spencer then. Nate called him and yes, he accepted the call but he’s making excuses. After several times of calling him again, he never picks it up.Spencer needs some space and I like it. Our friends won’t turn their attention to Spencer anymore and if they knew what Spencer is hiding behind their back, I don't know if they will still be friends with him.I took a glance at my mini clock that was in front of me and it’s already 8 in the evening. I furrowed my brows since Spencer hasn’t arrived
Kieran’s POVThe new day arrives and Nate asks us if we should do our homework at the library. Well, I don't have any homework because I already finished them all last night. I don't have any choice but to follow them to keep my cool. Also, they all apologized for last night, and of course, what did I do? I forgive them but I will never forget it. I forgive them and ask like everything is okay but the truth is I'm done. I’m done with everything and Spencer is the one to blame. If it’s not for him, none of this wouldn’t happened.Everybody was quietly reading their books while I was doing some doodle at the back of my notebook. Spencer is beside me, the usual.“Anyway– I have some important news!” Nate cheered and suddenly the libra
Spencer’s POV“Are you okay? What happened to you? Did Kieran push you off the bed?” I don’t know who asked those questions because I was focused on the nurse who put a bandage on my arm. It hurts so bad.I turned my head to them and Nate was looking at me worriedly.“What happened?” he ask,“I just fell on my bed. Kieran didn’t do anything. I’m just stupid for rolling at the edge of the bed,” I explained to him and they all nodded.I was really hooked on the book that I was reading. I was laying down and then sat and then laid back again but when I ro
Kieran’s POVI had to sit beside Spencer since Nate wanted to test us as if we are only doing this for a show. We are currently eating our lunch and everybody was talking nonstop except for me and Spencer. I get it. It’s still awkward for the both of us to be seated next to each other. Although we have our friends with us, it’s still awkward and I don’t know why. I shouldn’t be uncomfortable since I’m just faking this.I watch Spencer from the corner of my eyes and I can sense that he’s shaking. He kept on massaging his hands under the table. He even lets out a fake laugh if Nate or someone talks their dad jokes.Fast forward, at last, the day is finally over. I had lunch with them and my class was already finished
