Living With The Bad Boy

Liv’s POV

I could feel Alex’s lips against my forehead but i was too sleepy and weak to even open my eyes or say anything. I heard retracted footsteps and then the door shut. I finally managed to open my eyes and glanced at my alarm clock beside me. I stretched my hand forward to grab it and set it.

I closed my eyes trying to fall back to sleep but i just couldn’t, all trails of sleep seemed to be lost already.

I got up from the bed and made my way to the closet. I pulled off my clothes and went into the bathroom. Maybe a cool shower will help.

As the cold water poured down on my body, I could only imagine Alex. What could he be doing right now? Is he asleep?

I scrubbed down on my body gently and rinsed it off. I grabbed a towel from my towel rack and dried off mu wet body as i made my way back to the room, putting on the same clothes as earlier on.

I blow-dried my hair and combed it to look presentable enough.

Since when did i start caring how i look?

‘Since you started falling for the sexy boy next room’

I ignored my stupid mind and applied a little bit of lotion to my dried legs and then made my way to Alex’s room.

I knocked gently on the door but there was no response. I was about turning back to leave when the door pulled open, revealing a shirtless Alex in only black shorts.

Could this boy look any less sexier? My eyes raked his flawless body as i bit down my lips. I was short of words.

“Thought you were asleep?”He raised his eyebrows slightly at me, taking in my appearance.

“Yeah…. um…. i couldn’t fall asleep…… um…… can…. can i perhaps sleep with you?”I asked nervously.

“You know my dick would always welcome your warm ass”He teased.

“I didn’t mean it like that dumbo…. i mean…. can i…. spend the…. night in your room”I said shyly. Why am i shy?

“Of course, come on in”He smirked as he stepped aside, paving entrance for me as i followed him into his bedroom. He locked the door behind.

In as much as i supposed to be scared or self conscious to be spending my night with a boy in his room. I wasn’t. I felt safe around Alex for some weird reason. I know he’d never do anything to me without my consent.

“Um…. you can…. lie down”He said as he made his way to the chair in front of a table with books in his hands as he sat down. I stared at him in surprise as i saw him…… studying?

Alexander Williams studying?

No way!

Alex never studies.

At times i wonder how he makes it to high rank in class when he doesn’t even pay attention in class. He doesn’t even give two shits about school.

“You study?”I couldn’t help my curiosity.

“No”He said without looking at me.

“You’re lying aren’t you?”I asked as i drew nearer to you.

“What if i am, who cares, it’s not your business”He flared. Why is he getting angry for such a trivial matter.

“Wow…. this will make headlines…. bad boy Alexander Williams studying”I laughed.

“This isn’t funny Liv”He said quietly.

Is he embarrassed?

“What’s the big deal in you studying? it’s a good thing…. i must say I’m……”

“Shocked”He completed.

“Yeah and amused…. who would have thought that you study”I laughed.

“Those good grades don’t make themselves now do they?”He said humorously.

“I thought you cheat or something”I said.

“No fucking way, i can’t handle my dad getting me kicked out of the school, you know he’s one of the school’s sponsors, that will tarnish his reputation”He said.

“I’m quite amused”I said honestly.

“Why?”He asked.

“Because it’s…. weird…. you always have this bad boy aura so who would think that you study, how do you even have time to study when you’re always around girls or partying”I asked curiously.

“I study at night, whenever i don’t have any girls coming over or any parties”He told me.

“But you don’t even attend class much”I said as i scanned his books.

“Yeah…. it doesn’t matter whether i attend class or not, I don’t fail and that’s the important thing”He said and diverted his attention back to his book.

“Wow…. I’m amused”I told him truthfully.

“You aren’t supposed to even see me studying”He said.

“And why’s that?”I asked.

“It makes me look like a nerd, i don’t like people seeing me study”He said.

“I thought bad boys don’t study”I said.

“They don’t”

“Then why are you studying when your a bad ass arrogant……”

“You ask so many questions damn it!”He closed the book he was holding and put it away beside him.

“I’m just quite surprised”I told him.

“You should be and you aren’t supposed to know this”

“Why?”I asked.

“Because…. i hate it”

“Then why did you let me in?”I asked.

“I don’t know…. i just…. I don’t know”He seemed frustrated.

“Well it’s good to know that you study, at least there’s one good thing about you”I teased.

“This stays between thr both of us… got it!”

“Is that a threat?”I rolled my eyes.

“Call it whatever you want…. i must not hear about this from anyone, not even those shitty friends of yours”He warned.

“My friends aren’t shitty and you are not the boss of me, I’ll do whatever i like” I told him.

“Really?”He stood up and made his way to me as i took retracting steps backwards.

“W…. what are you trying to do?”I stuttered as my leg collided with the wall, sending me straight on the bed as he inched closer.

“Alex…. don’t…. don’t come any closer… I’m warning you…… or else….”

“Or else what?”He asked as he drew closer to me, he hovered on top on me with his face few inches from mine. His breath fanned my face as he spoke.

“W…. what are you doing?”I stammered.

“This will stay between us…. got it?”He said. I couldn’t tell whether he was joking or not but i nodded and he came off me, smirking.

Asshole.

I immediately got up from the bed and sat up on the bed with his back facing me.

“Alex”I called.

“Yeah?”Was his cold response as he took a glass of water from his table.

“I……”

“You what?”He asked.

Alex’s POV

“I want to ask you something”She seemed nervous.

“Okay?”I dropped the glass cup i was holding gently on the table as i made my way to her. I sat down few inches away from her as i took in her confused expression.

“What’s that?”I asked again.

“Um…. you…. nevermind”She said. O could see the nervousness on her face so i decided not to push her. If it is something important then i bet she’ll tell me when the time is right.

“Okay”I said quietly. To hell with Blake’s plan, I can’t make this girl like me in the way i want. Maybe we will always just be friends.

I stood up from the bed and made my way to my closet pulling out a pair of black jeans and a white t-shirt. I slipped into the jeans and zipped it up properly before putting on the t-shirt.

“Are you going somewhere?”Her voice came quietly.

“Yeah… I’m going to a party”I told her as i slipped into a pair of black sneakers.

“You should get some sleep”I told her as i combed my messy hair.

“Can i…. come with you?”She said out of the blues.

“What?”I think i heard her wrong.

“Can i come along?”She asked again.

“Um…. I don’t think that’s a good idea” I thought she hates parties.

“Please… you can’t leave me here all alone”She said.

I’d never have been able to leave her alone since she’s my responsibility but i was already planning on going to the party when she was asleep, we have enough tight security in the neighborhood so i didn’t have anything to worry about and i don’t wanna be around her for the moment, I’m going crazy with these feelings bubbling inside me. I need some alcohol to collect my thoughts.

“No Liv…. you need to rest”I told her calmly as i grabbed my phone and car keys from the table.

“Please Alex…. I can’t sleep”She begged and i couldn’t resist the pouty eyes she was giving me. Women know damn well how to make a man surrender.

“Fine”I sighed.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’ll get changed”She said and left the room immediately.
