One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Maxine’s Point of View

“Who’s that, Missy?” Sid asked as we walked away, “I think I already saw him somewhere.”

Did he already forget? He hit Troy with his ball in the past.

“None of your business,” I answered.

“You’re so cold to me!” Sid whined and let go of my arm.

“Do you really have a relationship with him?” Byron asked.

I turned to him, “I only said that we were dating because Giles teased me.”

“Huh? I was just asking you,” Giles defended himself.

I just rolled my eyes and ignored them. We are now walking towards the clinic. I don’t know what we are going to do there, I’m not sure if they are injured or they just want to go there. Though, I think they just finished playing basketball because they still have sweat on their faces.

“Where’s Louis? Will he not come with us?” I asked, when I noticed that Louis and Alyn weren’t with us. Maybe they are eating? As far as I remember, Alyn and Louis were carrying a food tray.

“Oh,” Byron turned around to looked at our back. “I think they are having their meal right now. They said that they were hungry that’s why we went there, then we saw you.”

So, it was just a coincidence. I thought, Alyn knew that I was there that’s why they went there. Gosh, since when did I get assuming. And, why would Alyn know that I went there? Sigh, I don’t like my way of thinking anymore.

“Okay,” That’s what I replied.

“Why are you asking about Louis?” Sid asked.

I bowed my head to avoid his gaze, “No reason.”

“Oh? Really? It maybe because you missed him, isn’t it?” Giles teased me.

My face heated. I turned to him with my brows furrowed, “I said, no reason!”

Byron laughed, “Why are you blushing, then?”

“I-I’m not blushing,” then I averted my eyes.

“Uh-huh,” Sid nodded, seems like he think of something. “I think, I know who is Missy’s crush.”

“It’s not Louis!” I denied.

“Huh?” Sid turned to me, “But, I haven’t tell that it was Louis whom I was thinking.”

Byron chuckled, “He haven’t say a name yet.”

Giles also chuckled, “You’re being too obvious, Yanny.”

My face heated up even more. My gosh! Why does it have to slipped out of my tongue? My goodness!

“T-Tch, w-whatever!” I said, and walked ahead of them.

Damn. That was so embarrassing. What if they tell Louis about that? What if Louis avoid me after he found out? And, if ever he avoid me, his only answer to my feelings is… kyah! I don’t want to think about it anymore. I don’t want to get rejected by him. Uhm, well… I think, I will be okay to be just his friend as long as he doesn’t avoid me. That’s what you call, ‘friend zone’ right? Sigh…

“Wait for us, Tardy!”

Hmp! As I if I will.

-( ~ 3 ~)–

One week passed, and the incident at the cafeteria was the last time I talked to Alyn. After that day, he was back of avoiding me as if I have virus. When he talk to me I will definitely ignore him, hmp! He think highly of himself just because everyone likes him. Well, let him separate me from the women who are madly in love with him.

Here I am, walking in the field to kill time again. I hope I won’t bump to the five monkeys today.

I sat at the bench and watched the people playing there. While I was watching them, my eyes caught a familiar face. My face lit up when he accidentally noticed me. When I waved my hand, he showed me a smile and then he immediately ran towards me.

“You’re here again,” he said, while catching his breath.

I pat the sit next to me to gestured him to seat beside me, “Yep. I went here to kill time.”

He nodded, “Well, I hope we won’t bump to your bosses this time,” then he scratched his head.

Oh, I almost forgot that I told him that Sid was my boss, the day Sid hit him with a ball. Maybe, after he found out that Sid was my boss, he thought that I was also the maid of the four other monkeys since they were cousins.

I giggled, “Yeah… I hope, too.”

( \•○•/ )

Sigh… While we were on our way home, my eyes were just looking outside, while the monkeys were singing but of course except to the evil ones.

“Wohoo~ we’re home!” Sid shouted like a child. Tch, what a pain in the ear.

After byron got out of the car I followed, and…

“Ouch! Arg~” I moaned.

Arg! Fuck it! What happened? Well, I just tripped. And who’s fault? Who else? Of course, it’s no other than Alyn!

“Wendy, are you okay?” Louis attended me.

“Stupid,” Alyn whispered but I heard him.

Gosh, he’s really getting into my nerves. I thought we’re now getting along but he suddenly change into evil again. Does he have a multi personality disorder? Arg, damn!

“Alyn tripped me,” I said.

“Eh?” Sid reacted.

“What did you do, Alyn?” Louis turned to him, “What if the wound leave a scar?”

Alyn smirked, “You believe her? What if I say I didn’t do anything, will you still believe her?”

My brows furrowed, “What are you trying to say? That I make up story just to blame you?”

Alyn’s left brow arched, “Did I say something like that? Don’t be so offensive.”

“You…” I was about to say something, but Louis stopped me.

“Will you two argue again?” Louis sighed, “Alyn, stop teasing Wendy, can you?”

“I didn’t do anything, she’s just stupid.” He replied.

I clenched my fist, “You always say you didn’t do anything but the truth is you really did! Can you stop lying? Are you that desperate to get the attention of others?”

“H-Hey,” Byron walked towards me and caressed my back. “Calm down, Tardy. Don’t wake up the sleeping dragon,” he muttered.

Alyn was just staring at me deeply. I want to averted my eyes but I don’t want to get defeated.

“Eherm~ let’s just go inside first, hmm? You two cool down.” Giles said.

“Yep, and say sorry to Alyn for accusing him.” Said Sid.

My right brow arched, “Huh? Why should I? He really tripped me!”

Alyn scoffed, “Before accusing someone, try to look at your surroundings.”

“Huh?” I crossed my arms over my chest. What is he trying to say?

He turned his back before saying, “Look at the stone behind you,” then he finally left us.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

I did what he said, and my eyes widened when I saw a stone there. W-What the? Did I really false accused Alyn? And, I even said a harsh thing to him! Oh, damn!

Giles sighed, “You should apologize to him later, Yanny.”

I turned to them and the disappointment was obvious in their faces. What should I do? He might not accept my apology after what I said.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk,” Sid shook his head, “That’s why I told you to say sorry.”

“B-But, I didn’t know!” I defended myself.

Byron chuckled, “Uh-huh? I think, you already know because Alyn was the one ahead of us earlier.”

Now that he said that… Alyn was really ahead of us.

Louis smiled, “Let’s just go in first. I’m glad Alyn didn’t do anything, but I hope you will apologize to him.”

I pouted and bowed my head. As if I have another choice. Sigh, did I disappoint Louis?

“I think, Yanny misses Alyn.” Giles said while nodding.

“H-How come?”

“Because of what happened,” Sid was the one who answered.

Byron nodded, “Tardy want Alyn’s attention.”

“H-Hey! T-that’s-” ugh, fuck! I can’t think of a word to say!

“Okay, that’s enough, guys. Let’s go in.” What Louis said, which we followed.
