Mag-log inAlex's POV
I stared at the new girl through the review mirror pissed off. She was the definition of annoying. Everything about her was so ridiculous and annoying and I could not believe she was spending a night in my place. I had never hosted anyone in my apartment and she was the first one. I hated sharing things but she come in and the first thing she did was use my shower gel. I restricted myself to kick her out right there and then. Her actions angered me so much and don't remind me of her mouth. She spoke the most absurd things like how I had shared the girls I had been with. What did she know about the girls I had been with? And what was wrong with her anyway? Why was she not all over me like the rest of the girls? I hated the attention I got from girls because it was very annoying but what was more annoying was this girl who had months of the year as her name, not sucking up to me. If anything, she was just as annoyed with me as I was with her. "Dude, why are you staring at me?"she asked when our eyes met through the review mirror in the car. I hated that Marcus had to give her a ride and he also offered to buy her snacks. What was she because ever since I met her, she was always wanting things. She wanted me to share my apartment with her. She wanted my WiFi password then she wanted me to give her a ride. Was she aware I gave no one rides on my motorcycle? She was wrecking my life and making me do things I hated doing and that made me hate her so much. Now, she wanted Marcus to pay for her snacks. Why was she like this? I had never met a girl like her. I looked away from the review mirror and ignored her question. I did not have to answer her. "By the way April, there is a small gathering in my apartment of just my friends. Would you like to....." "No."I rejected what Marcus was trying to say. There was no way he was inviting this nerdy girl in our friend group. "Alex, she is cool. She might be weird but she is smart."Marcus said stopping at a mini-mart. " That is a description of a nerd you idiot. She cannot....." "You two need to stop insulting me. I am right here."December said interrupting me. I glared at her. "Nobody cares October."I snapped at her. "I am inviting her Alex." Marcus said with finality and I glared at October harder. Had this girl been sent to solely annoy and anger me? Marcus looked at her smiling. "Hey April, join us after we get snacks. We are having a fun group meeting with my friends."he told her. December girl shook her head. "No, I do not attend parties."I rolled my eyes at how ridiculous she sounded. "It is not a party. The party was rescheduled so me and my friends decided to meet at my place to have a little bit of fun. We are here to get some snacks for the group."Marcus told her and he annoyed me. Why was he being nice to her? I get that she was pretty, very pretty I had to admit but she did not deserve kindness. Maybe I hated her so much such that a single simple thing about her annoyed and pissed me to death. "I don't know Marcus. I......." "Good, we are heading to my place after this."Marcus said not letting her finish her statement which I was sure she was rejecting Marcus's offer. How much did Marcus want her with him? Did he like her? It would make no sense if he did like her. Like I said, she was pretty but that did not qualify as Marcus's type. Marcus had a history of dating girls that were outgoing. " You don't listen to me Marcus. It's not nice."October complained. Marcus shrugged. "You have a boring life. Why would I listen to you make lame excuses to escape from the fun I am offering you. You need to get out more April instead of burying yourself in books and being allergic to fun. You live a depressing life."Marcus told her and he opened his door to get out. I suddenly did not feel like accompanying him to the store to get whatever snacks the guys back at his place wanted. December got out of the car too. Marcus bent down to stare at me questioningly when I made no effort of getting out. "You aren't coming?"he asked. "No." "Oh, nice."he said and closed the door. They left with November. I closed my eyes leaning back in my seat and just when I had fallen asleep, I heard a knock on the side of my window. I groaned opening my eyes then I rolled my window down and I was met with Tamara, or Tamika maybe Tarawa. I was not sure what her name was. What was she doing here? " What ?"I angrily asked her. " Hey, chill out dude I was coming to the store and I saw you sleeping. I thought you looked familiar." I just stared at her wishing she would just shut up and let me go back to sleep. "Don't you remember me? We had sex three days ago at Dan's party. You did not call me back after I wrote my number on your palm."She said smiling and I just bluntly stared at her. Was she crazy? "I do not call people back. What we had was just sex, nothing more."I told her. She blinked confused and I wondered why she was. Didn't she know I did not do the stupid relationship stuff? What made her think she was special enough to make me call her back? "But I thought we had something?" "You were being delusional Tamara."I told her. She gasped shocked and I knew I got her name wrong. "It is Tamika."she corrected. I just kept quiet wondering what she wanted from me. I heard her chuckle running her fingers in her hair frustrated. "You stupid jerk. You are an asshole Alex."She yelled at me. "What is going on?" Thank god for Marcus's intervention. Marcus stared at Tamara or Tamika. I had already forgotten her name. "Of course it is one of Alex's asshole friends."She rolled her eyes then her eyes travelled to July and she smirked at her mockingly. This was getting interesting. "Listen to me, this asshole,"She pointed at Marcus. "He is just using you so you better dump his ass when you can."She told July sizing her from head to toe then she walked away angrily. She thought June was Marcus girlfriend? Talk about stupid assumptions. July was as confused as ever watching Tara's back.April's POV I stayed in my room till evening. I finished the project and watched some depressing videos. I came out because I felt hungry. I went straight to the kitchen. I looked around for Alex but he was not around. He had to be in his room. I looked at the kitchen and I sighed. I did not feel like cooking to be honest but I was starving."Oh damn. My mom would kill me if she found out I am ordering food when I can just cook."I said to myself taking my phone out to order. But just when I was about to order, a call appeared on my screen. It was my brother. What did he want now? I groaned bored."What?"I aggressively spoke."Calm down little sister. Go to your apartment's basement."Landon told me.I frowned. "Why?""Can you just go without asking questions?"I rolled my eyes before I decided to go to the basement. What did my brother want me to see? Was he in the basement? Wasn't he supposed to have left for Singapore for business? I stepped out of the elevator and I looked around m
April's POV I opened my eyes feeling more tired than I had been when I was lying down yesterday night. I was supposed to be relaxed but I was so fatigued I just wanted to keep lying down. But then I was not that sleepy. I sighed and I came to a decision to just get out of bed. I climbed down from the bed and run the back of my hand on my face before I bent to make the bed. At least I knew such basics. I was a very hygienic person so there were things that were automatic for me. I was a tidy and neat person in nature.Just when I tied my hair in a messy bun, I heard some commotions in the kitchen. I frowned. I did not hear Alex come home last night. But then I was a heavy sleeper. I got out of my room. I needed to freshen up but I wanted to see what was going on.I stopped at the kitchen island to look in the kitchen but I ended up freezing in my position involuntarily. I was staring at a half naked girl who was cooking breakfast using my groceries. What was going on? It took me a min
April's POV The bell rung as I tried to clean up my mess. I knew Alex called someone to come and clean but I still wanted to try. I could not believe that I could not actually do it. I felt useless. It was just cleaning up the scattered food on the kitchen floors and walls. I just made more mess than I intended. I cleaned my hands and went to open the door. It had to be the persom Alex called. I opened the door. My mouth opened wide when I saw who it was. More than who they were. Marcus and his group of friends stood at the door and except for Marcus, everyone else was surprised to see me too. Why were they here? Didn't they have a party to attened to?"April? What are you doing here?" Olivia asked me surprised."I live here apparently."I replied and everyone frowned looking at each other. Of course they were surprised. How predictable was Alex to make people this confused when he did something out of his norm."No way." Maddy spoke breaking the silence. I was sure her statement was
Alex's POV I could not believe Landon just threatened me into accommodating his little sister. He actually threatened me. I did not know how to feel about April staying with me. She was annoying and I just did not like sharing things with anyone especially my apartment.To say I was not surprised that Landon suggested that his little sister stay with was an understatement. Everyone who knew me and Landon knew me all too well, knew that I was bad news. Landon was protective of his sister so why would he leave her with me? Unless there was a hidden agenda.Landon and I went way back. School wise and business wise. Me being from the Gray family and him coming from Hill family, we had met quite often mostly because his family and my family were business competitors. I hated the guy to the guts and I knew he would say the same about me. So despite all that he left his sister under the same roof as me? What game was he playing? He was not my friend to ask favours from me. We were business
April's POV "What do you need little sister before I go?"Landon asked after he had taken my suitcases back to the room. It was a nice room I had to admit. So Alex like but a comfortable bed to sleep on.I was sulking at the moment so I did not reply to him. Alex was sitted in the sitting room watching some motorcycle races on his big tv. I was sitted on the dinning table somewhere far away from him."Damnit P, talk."Landon raised his voice at me.I glared at him. "Don't you raise your voice at me."I warned him.He sighed running his hands on his hair. "I'm sorry. You are just frustrating me at this point when you don't answer my questions."he chnaged his tone to a softer one."I don't want anything.""How is that possible? You are living on your own now. You need things like I don't know, a car."Landon suggested.I took in a deep breath. I needed to loosen up and stop sulking like an immature kid. I was mad but I had to think about what I want critically. My brother was right. Despit
APRIL'S POV I looked at Alex waiting for an explanation. What did he mean by what he said? "How do you know my family?"I asked when I got tired of waiting for Alex to take the hint and explain on his own accord.Alex stared at me. "Get your stuff June and leave. I don't even know why I am speaking to you in the first place."He told me coldly then the next moment he stood up straight and walked away. I jumped at the sound of the door banging. He went to his room.I sighed and I bent down near my suitcases. A few minutes later I was done packing and I was pushing my suitcases down the hall to the sitting room where I assumed Landon was. He was looking, no...surveying around the sitting room like a person who was hoping to find something he lost."What are you doing?"I cleared my throat before asking to gain his attention.He turned to look at me acting like he was not snooping a second ago."Are you done?" He asked looking at my suitcases."Do you know snooping is considered creepy?"I
