One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Maxine’s Point of View

“Hey, wake up,”

I opened my eyes when I felt someone was shaking me. I rubbed my eyes because my vision is blurred. When my vision became okay, that’s when I realized that I was hugging Alyn. I immediately took away my arm that was hugging him, and sat down. He also sat down but he didn’t talk.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

KRIK

Huh? What was that sound? Where it came from?

I looked around to find the thing that made a sound. When my head turned to Alyn’s position, I saw him reached his another bag. After a while, he took out a… walkie-talkie?

He pushed a button from there before he spoke, “Yes?”

“We’re on our way,” I heard GH’s voice. “Get ready to go home.”

My eyes widened and I felt excited when I heard what GH said. Yay, we’re going home! Kyah, finally!

Alyn looked at me before he answered GH, “Okay.”

Then the call ended.

This is our 5th day here in this Island. Living here is very difficult because you need to find a food to eat while there were wild animals around you, but since Alyn is with me I did not feel any discomfort.

I thought if I was the only one here, I could not survive even one day because I knew nothing to do and I was afraid of the animals inside the forest. Thankfully, Alyn is with me.

I smiled when I remembered how Alyn took care of me. Of course, there was a day we fight but we also get along immediately. I don’t know but as time goes on I notice the change in Alyn. He is no longer so hostile to me and he is also becoming humble. And whenever I acted like I don’t feel like eating, he will shove the food into my mouth forcefully using his hand. Every time he do that… my heart won’t stop being excited.

“-ly, Ugly! Ugly!” Alyn pushed me.

I was startled and so I stared at him blankly, “W-What?”

His brows furrowed, “I’ve been calling you before but you don’t even move. You were just smiling there like a fool. Have you gone mad?”

Huh? Was he calling me? But I didn’t hear anything. Haa, don’t tell me I spaced out again thinking about Alyn? Gosh, what will he think of me when he found out that? So, embarrassing!

I averted my gaze, “Why are you calling me? What are you going to say?”

“You heard GH, right? Gather your things and take a bath. They are in their way,” he said.

“O-Okay,” I responded and got up.

“Ah, right. I think he brought the four idiots,” Alyn uttered. I turned to him and I can’t think of anything to say. He noticed me staring at him so he stared back, “Is that how you look when you’re excited?”

“H-Huh? What do you mean?” I scratched my head.

“You miss Louis so much, aren’t you?” He smirked, “You will see him again so you are excited.”

But honestly… I never thought of that. Even in the days when I was with Alyn, I didn’t even think about Louis. He didn’t even enter my mind. In fact of that, I enjoy being with Alyn. I’m not annoyed with him, I’m happy that he’s with me… just the two of us. So, what is he saying? For some reason, I got annoyed.

I rolled my eyes and turned my back at him, “Why do you care?” Then I walked out.

I will just patch up my things later after I take a bath.

It’s already dark when they arrived which annoyed me. We got ready in the morning and then they would arrive at night. Arg, who wouldn’t be annoyed of that?

GH laughed when saw my reaction, “How are my sweetheart, hmm?” He hugged me, “You didn’t fight here, do you?”

I nodded, “Yeah, but why did you just come? I’m sleepy already.” I pouted.

He patted my head, “Okay, Okay, we’re sorry. Let’s go home.” He turned to the five men, “Boys, bring her bags.”

“Aye, aye, captain!” Sid said. He even saluted.

[Tomorrow: @ school]

“Hey, Max,” Angela approached me.

“Hmm?” I looked at her.

“Why were you absent a week ago?” She asked and sat on my table.

I took a deep breath, “Why are you asking? It’s none of your business.”

She clicked her tongue, “Tsk, of course, it’s my business. We’re friends!”

My brows furrowed, “Since when did we become friends? I don’t remember being your friend.”

She smiled, “That hurts. Anyway, Ferries was upset the whole week because you weren’t around.”

“So?” I raised an eyebrow, “Is that my problem?”

“Woah, woah,” she put her arm into the air like as if being arrested by the police. “Calm down, girl. I’m not an enemy, you know. We’re just… concern.”

“Concern of what?” I asked.

She rolled her eyes and heaved a sigh, “Why are such in a bad mood? Did something bad happen to you?”

My brows twitched, “Huh?”

Gosh, what is this girl need this time? It’s not that I hate talking to her. It’s just… Every time I see her I remember how she turned her back on me before. And how she laughs at me every time the crew of Ferries beat me. It still hurts me every time I remember how my one and only friend became my enemy.

She leaned to, “Did you get dump by Alyn or something?” She whispered.

I felt how my blood rise to my head. I pushed Angela and glared at her, “What are you saying? I-I’m not!”

She covered her mouth and suppressed her laughter, “Oh, damn. I think you really have feelings for him. Goodness.”

“Shut it, Angela. Maybe someone will hear you and think that what you are saying is true,” I uttered while looking around. I saw that some of my classmates were staring at us.

Did they hear what Angela said? Shocks, I hope not.

BANG!

I jumped in surprised when the door of the classroom opened loudly.

My brows furrowed when I saw Ferries looking around the classroom. When her eyes stopped at me, she started walking… walking towards me.

Gosh, why is she walking to my place?

“Oh… so, you finally went into school,” she touched my head that made me flinched.

“W-What do you need?” I asked while avoiding her gaze.

“What is Ferries doing here? She’s not with her old friends,” classmate 1.

“Are they going to fight?” Classmate 2.

“Who do you think will win?” Classmate 3.

“Of course, it’s none other than Ferries,” classmate 4.

“Okay, let’s make a bet~ I go for Maxine,” classmate 5.

“What?” Classmate 6 laughed, “Okay, I bet for Ferries.”

“Me, too! I bet for Ferries,” classmate 7.

“Quiet!” Ferries shouted that made the entire room silent. Oh, I think she also heard what my classmates were saying.

“H-Hey, you’re scaring them,” I muttered.

“So?” She raised her an eyebrow, “That’s not what important right now. Why were you absent for one week?”

“Why are you asking me? It’s not like I need to report everything to you. You’re not even my mom or whatever.” I responded, getting irritated. Honestly, why are they acting like this?

She just stared at me for a few moments. She sighed, “Fine. I’ll get going, eat with us later.”

“Huh? I don’t want to,” I responded before she could turn away.

“Whether you like it or not, you’ll come eat with us.” She said and left.

Arg, what should I do?
