"Thanks"

"Muffin,go upstairs,the second room on your left is mine"He added directing me.

"Okay"I muttered and walked away leaving him with Joan.

I wonder what they wanted to discuss but anyways it is not actually my business so I cared less.I followed his directions and got to his room,it was sort of empty,just a bed and some few things in the room, I guessed since he doesn't live in his father's house,his room won't be filled with things.

"This used to be my room"A voice said from behind as he closed the door.

"You actually thought I raped you ?"He asked still laughing,showing his perfect set of white teeth."Did I say anything stupid last night?I asked with my hands on my head,squinting my eyes. "Oh,yes you did,you confessed your undying love for me"He smirked,he was obviously lying.I remembered my reason for my drinking the previous night,the anger just happened to boil up once more. "Take your meds,so you can feel better"He said,his

"What kind of school is this?!"I frowned, asking nobody in particular. "One of a kind"Lucas stated raising his face from his notebook towards me. "Why do you have dark circles on your eyes"I asked Lucas as squinted my eyes."I slept very late last night"He replied yawning."Why?"I scrunched my brows.
