Chapter 6

Maxine's Point of View

"Ugh, my head hurts!" I held my head as I sat up from lying on the bed.

What happened? Why am I sleeping here? As far as I know, I slept in the garden. What actually happened? Argh, plus a headache.

"Are you alright?" I heard someone ask in a man's voice, so I raised my head.

"What happened?" I asked as I saw the man who was asking me earlier.

"You've got a cold," he replied, handing me a soup.

I've got a cold? How? I can't remember.

I get the soup and start to eat. I looked around, and I realized that we're not the only ones here — there's Byron, Sid, Giles, and Alyn. They are all looking at me, but of course, except for Alyn psh what did you expect about that man? He's a cold hearted man.

"T-thanks." Gosh, why am I stuttering?

I put the bowl on the side table as I finished eating. I glance at Louis, who is sitting beside me — his eyes look so concerned. Am I hallucinating? Or am I assuming?

I look back at those four who sit on the sofa in front of me. No one is speaking; my eyes caught Alyn's, and he is now looking at me emotionlessly. I rolled my eyes at him and lay down again. I have nothing to say, so I must sleep again.

"Uh- Maxine," Sid called, so I looked at him, but I didn't bother to ask 'why?'.

"Alyn brought you here when he found you unconscious," he continued.

I heard it right? I didn't mishear, right? Or am I asleep already and this is my dream? Dang, this is no fun. I'd rather believe Sid if he said Louis brought me here and saw me unconscious than hear Alyn say he saw me and carried me.

I didn't speak; I just looked at Alyn, who is now wearing his smirk. See? It is unbelievable— he hates me, and on the other hand, I destroy his girlfriend's picture.

"Surprised?" Alyn asked without removing the smirk engraved in his face.

Argh, how I hate this man! He looks like a monkey whenever he is smirking. I wish I could stand here and stab him right now, and it doesn't matter if his cousins see.

"I know that you have a crush on me, so why am I going to be surprised?" I sat and raised one eyebrow while looking at him.

Honestly, I'm a little surprised because I didn't expect that he could do such things, even though he's mad at me and hates me. But of course I did not show him that I was surprised.

I saw his forehead twitch, but it also changed quickly, and a devilish smile was engraved on his face.

He walked towards me, and he leaned against me at the head of the bed. His face was now so close to mine. Fuck. I feel that sudden electricity creeping all over my body, my heart beats so fast. Damn, what is this feeling I am feeling right now?

"What did you say? I like you?" I can now smell, feel, and breathe. He moved closer again; our noses were touching each other now.

Damn, my heartbeat is even faster than it was a while ago.

"N-no" damn. I'm stuttering.

I tried to look at those four, and they looked shocked and couldn't even move. Gosh.

"No? Really?" He is now looking at my lips; that's why I also put my eyes down on his.

Damn. It's so pretty. It's seducing me... His red lips are seducing me!

"I-I was just k-k-kidding a minute ago," dang!I can't even say a whole word.

"Are you joking?" His devilish smile got even bigger.

"Y-ye--" Even before I could finish my words, I already felt his soft lips.

My heart... My heart beats faster and faster, and there's also something on my tummy that I didn't know—it seems like they are so happy with what is happening right now.

My eyes were still open due to being shocked.

I should push him right now, but why can't I move my hand to push and slap him?

He grabbed my waist and pushed me onto him, and I suddenly felt his lips moving. His kisses are intoxicating, it feels like he wants me to kiss him back. I can't move my body, damn.

I couldn't control myself anymore. I closed my eyes, grabbed his nape, and kissed him back. But before I closed my eyes, I saw the four idiots watching us like they were watching a love story.

I felt his lips smirk, but I didn't mind it. We continue kissing as if nobody but the two of us are here.

He gripped my waist even more tightly, and I pressed his nape even more to deepen the kiss.

Fuck. He's such a fantastic kisser.

My heart didn't stop beating faster and faster, and the butterflies in my stomach were getting more excited.

We heard the loud closing of the door. He stopped kissing me, and we looked at the door together.

I looked at the sofa, and I saw nothing there; it must be the four who closed the door. Ghad! I need to stand up and leave now before this monster eats me.

I was about to go down in bed when I suddenly felt his lips again, damn it.

"Where do you think you are going, honey?" he asked before grabbing my waist and kissing my lips again.

He laid me down... He's on my top now. Fuck. This is wrong! I want to push him, but his kisses are too strong to ignore. I pull him closer to me, and for the second time, I feel his lips carve a smirk again.

He stopped and looked at me.

"I like you," he said before kissing me again.

"I like you too," my mind answered before kissing him back, and the last thing I knew, we were now in bed together.
