LOGINApril's POV
I reached my dorm safely, thank heavens, and I took all my belongings with me back to Alex's apartment. I struggled to find my way back to the apartment but I finally got there. I put my bags in the bedroom Alex had assigned me to sleep in. It was a nice room and I wondered why he did not want to accommodate me in the first place when he had a spare room. How selfish was he? I explained to him my problem and he still did not want to accommodate me. I sighed getting out of my clothes preparing to go freshen up. Today was one of the worst days of my life. I wrapped my towel on my body and got into the shower and a hot shower had never felt so good. Showers after a long day were the best. I used the shower gels and hair shampoo in the bathroom without thinking too much on my actions. After I was done, I got out but I almost screamed when I met cold angry eyes staring at me. I jumped a little scared and I tightly held onto my towel to prevent it from falling. I cleared my throat trying to regain my composure. "H...hey. You scared me. When did you get back?"I asked Alex faking a smile. Alex just stared at me and I tightened my hold on my towel even more. "Are you going to keep staring at me?"I asked embarrassed. "Who gave you the right to take a shower here?"he asked me in a cold expresionless voice. I blinked confused. "Am I not supposed to take a shower?"I asked him. "You are here just to sleep for one night. Sleep only not take a shower and sleep."Alex growled at me. "It is just a shower, calm down."I told him arrogantly. To be honest I did not understand why he was angry. "You used my shower gel and shampoo."Alex stated. I lifted an eyebrow at him. "So?"I asked. "I hate sharing my things with people and I feel like dying with you being here in my apartment. I have to fathom that I am breathing the same air with you in my own apartment."Alex told me. I was restricting the urge to roll my eyes so bad because this guy was being so annoying and...petty. Emphasis on petty. "I am aware I am disturbing your peace and I apologise for that but you do not have to make a big deal out of my one night stay here."I told him. "Oh, and do not tell me how you do not like sharing. You have had tons of girlfriends who have had boyfriends before. If that is not sharing I do not know what is." I shrugged and I walked past him down the hallway to the room I was sleeping in. I had to get dressed. After I got dressed, I got out of the room with my laptop and books. I had to write the group project report. I walked to the sitting room and sat at the couch. Alex was nowhere to be seen and I assumed he was in his room doing whatever. I spent some time on the couch brainstorming on how to write the report until I heard a door open and close. I pretended to be a little more busy but I was anticipating to see Alex. I wanted the WiFi password which I doubted he would give me. I heard his heavy footsteps and I just tapped random keys on my laptop to seem busy. When the footsteps stopped, I looked up from my laptop to look at Alex. He stood leaning on the wall at the corner of the sitting room. He had changed his clothes into a pair of black baggy jeans and a black fitting t-shirt. He held his earlier leather jacket with one hand while his other hand he played with a black lighter. It was the only thing producing a sound in the room. We stared at each for the first few seconds. No one between us wanted to speak first but I gave in soon. "Can you please give me the WiFi password?" I requested. "No." he bluntly denied. I sighed. I expected that. "Why are you so stingy?" I asked him. "Because I can."he replied and I swear he was the most annoying person in the world after my siblings. "Fine then stingy guy. I will just hack myself the password. I wanted to be respectful and ask you in person first but you trampled on my efforts."I told him but he did not react after hearing I was going to hack on his WiFi password. "Do whatever you want just be gone early in the morning."He said and he begun walking away towards the door. He was leaving? Of course he was leaving. I had forgotten about the party Marcus could not stop talking about. "So you are fine with me hacking your WiFi?"I asked him and he stopped in his tracks. He turned to look at me. "June, I do not care. Just continue with whatever nonsense you are doing."he told me and I pouted sadly. He dared call my studying nonsense? I glared at him angered. "It is not nonsense, I am studying."I told him. "Who the hell studies on a Friday night? I think just the crazy ones like you."he told me. He kept insulting me. "Why are you studying when everyone is at a party. Your friend Marcus has a party and you are just sitting in the room instead of going." he told me. "Why are you being bothered by my life? Worry about yours."I told him annoyed. I did not appreciate people's criticism on my choice of doing things and my life. Everyone had something to say about who I was, my social life and everything else about me. It was actually very annoying. "My life is perfect and don't hallucinate. I could care less about your stupid boring life let alone be bothered by it."he told me and that hit me in the heart. He was so mean and harsh and I hated him.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
April's POV "What are you doing here?"Alex coldly asked Landon. This was getting weird. I stepped away from where I was standing behind Landon and I stood next to him."What is going on?"I asked Landon out of curiosity."How rude was this asshole to you?"Landon asked getting so serious I was actually getting scared.I blinked confused then I glanced at Alex. I wanted to see his expression and he was as unreadable as always. "He was not rude at all."I told Landon shaking my head a little bit more vigorous than I intended."She is lying. I was the worst person she has probably met."Alex said and I narrowed my eyes at him. Why would he say that? It was true anyways but...why would he say that? Couldn't he read the air? My brother was not about to laugh with him. He made that clear with his dangerous tone.I looked at Landon shaking my head again but it was too late. He had already swung his fist and hit Alex's perfect jaw. I think I heard a crack sound as a result. I was not sure from
April's POV " Woah, who is that?" Maddy gasped grabbing attention of everyone in the group to look at who she was referring. My face instantly lit up. My brother stood against his car that was parked at the lone spot in the parking lot. He had sunglasses on. "And what car is that?"Maddy added as we walked further into the parking lot."That car is worth millions. As rich as my family is we cannot afford it as easily."Marcus commented and I looked at my brother's car. I had not noticed the type of car he came with. I instantly got annoyed that he chose to come with a flashy car. He knew I hated attention and he came with a car that screamed attention."P....why are you just standing there? Come here and give me a hug." Landon said and everyone looked at me with with questioning gazes. I forced a smile. "That is my brother Landon."I told them and I heard one or two gasps."Are you serious?" Maverick asked looking me up and down. That was weird right?Just when I was about to answer, I
April's POV The game continued for a while and more drinking games were introduced. People got so drunk except for Alex and I. I avoided anything that would make me drunk. When I had no choice but drink, Marcus would secretly drink for me. I guess he knew I did not drink. For some reason, Alex drunk as much as everyone but he did not get drunk.Now it was morning. I slowly opened my eyes letting my eyes adjust to the sudden light that welcomed my eyes. I had a foggy recollection of how and when I fell asleep but judging from the familiar decor of Marcus's sitting room, I was sure I was at Marcus's place. I sat up from my sleeping position apparently on the couch and I looked around hoping to see anyone. You know, Marcus's friends."Look who is up?"a cheerful familiar voice sounded in the room. It was Olivia. I turned to see her walking towards me. I was at the moment bothered that I was the only one on the couch. I cleared my voice to avoid it from coming hoarse because of my sleep.
April's POV Oh no!!I was not liking what was going on at the moment. I was not the person to be dramatic or start any drama but I could sense drama brewing. I was what? Two minutes around people and they were already causing drama."Why would you take the snack if it is not yours?" Marcus asked and I secretly pinched him to stop him from escalating the situation."You are right Maddy. It is just a snack. You can have it."I decided to speak hoping that was a good signal to show everyone that I was fine. But the truth was, I was not okay deep down. I wanted to be away from everyone there.There was an awkward silence around the room and I wondered what I was supposed to do. So I awkwardly sat down."Okay, can we get back to the game?" Leo cheerfully said saving the situation. I took a relieved breath when everyone agreed with him. I forced a small smile on my lips. Then I felt a stare boring through me. I looked at Alex who was the source of the stare. I stared back at him without sa
April's POV "I'm back."Marcus announced once we reached his apartment. Everyone turned their head excitedly to look at him until they spotted me next to him and their faces dropped and were suddenly filled with confusion. Everyone except Alex. He did not even look at Marcus when he told everyone he was back. His attention was deeply buried in his phone.Marcus noticed everyone's silence and smiled. He dropped the bags of snacks in his hands on the floor. Later, he grabbed the bag of snacks in my hand and dropped it to where he dropped the rest. Then he placed his hand on my shoulders and he pushed me forward gently. "Everyone, this is April. She's in my class."he told everyone who was just staring at me. I just smiled like a fool while they stared at me. I hated every single second they did. It was very embarrassing."So, April this is everyone." Marcus said then he pointed at a guy who was at the far end of the couch. He had a girl on his lap. The guy had a few strands of his hair d
