IN HIS ROOM
I followed Jason to his room. It was tidy. Tidy isn’t the thing I expected to see in the boy’s room. He has a large bookshelf with novels and educational-related books. As a nerd, I can settle here forever to read every single book. Other than his shelf and desk, there’s more awards, certificates in his cupboard. I know he’s an intelligent boy, rank holder. But I didn’t expect to see too many awards. I wonder how many competitions he participated in his life. Then my eyes wandered over to the king-size bed.
” Do you like my room?” he asked when I was silently observing his whole room in the entrance.
” Yeah, I didn’t think boys room would be so clean. I like this maintenance. I also wish to come here to read your books,” I said, looking into the title of the books. He’s having more hopeless romantic type of books.
” You can come here any day. You’re welcome here,” he said with a smile.
” Thanks. I have one more question. Are you maintaining your room all by yourself?” I asked, looking at his desk.
” Nope. Servants do that work.”
” You said you won’t allow anyone to your room?” I raised my eyebrow at him.
” How can I maintain it clean without their help? They are allowed. But right now, there’s only us in my room.” he replied and my eyes are on the desk. I spotted a journal. When I was distracted, I heard a small sound of locking the door. I’m sure he locks the door to his room. We aren’t going to do anything which needs privacy. Why would he lock it?
” What’s this?” I approached his desk and almost opened a notebook.
” No, no. Not that.” he panicked and came behind me. Instantly, he closed the notebook with my hand.
” Not that, Milly. That’s my personal diary.” He softly said. He’s standing closer to me.
” Sorry. I didn’t know that. When did you start writing journals?” I asked and expected him to step back. Well, he didn’t.
” Um.. let me think… when I was thirteen years old.”
” Oh, wow, I don’t have that habit. Anyways, sorry for opening it without your permission.” I apologized as my eyes still fixed on that note.
” It’s okay. I would probably angry at times when anyone tries to open it. But I don’t feel angry towards you.” he said as his breath tickles my neck. I wasn’t giving any reply to that.
” Anyways, if you want to see something entertaining, see my childhood photos,” he suggested and took an album right below his desk.
” It’s going to be so much entertaining than anything. I love childhood photos,” I said, opening it slowly. I didn’t compliment his every single picture. But he’s so adorable in everything. Till now, I had a thinking that the hot guys won’t be handsome in their childhood. I do have noticed in some celebrities but Jason is cute, handsome in these old photos and hot, sexy now. How can he be like this?
” Are you going to turn that page or not?” he asked when I kept staring at his picture.
” Yeah, I was about to turn,” I lied. If he gave some of his pictures, I would keep it with me. Wait. What am I talking about? I already mentioned that I’m not a crazy fangirl for anyone. Usually, I won’t be obsessed with any model’s body or anybody.
” Just skip that page,” Jason panicked again and tried to turn it.
” Now, what?” I signed and let him hide that page. Then I changed my mind.
” I want to see what you are hiding. Show me the picture. I won’t tease you,” I insisted.
” Not gonna happen,” he got hold of my hand and closed the book.
” Yeah, that’s not fair,” I turned to give him a mad look but then I noticed he is not even standing an inch away from me. His chest is pressed against my back. Our lips are only inches away. I have stopped arguing about the hidden page.
” Trust me. I will show you that picture one day. But not today.” he said, brushing my hair off my face. I totally forget to give a reply. Instead, I was staring at him. He’s touch is giving me chills. The next moment, his eyes were on my lips.
Knock. Knock.
” Open the door, Jason. Goddamn, my iPhone fell off the stairs. Buy me a new one.” I heard a recognizable voice on the other side of the door. Jason heavily signed and went to open the door. It must be Eve. His sister.
” Hey, Order me a new iPhone. I can’t use it anymore… Hey, Emily, Here you are,” Eve noticed me and she wiped the anger out of her face and plastered a smile.
” Hey, Eve,”
” You two know each other. How come I not know that?” Jason asked, looking at us.
” I met her. Five hours ago,” I said.
” That’s not important. Just give me your phone. I will order the new one and give it back to you,” she urged him and waited outside till he gave his phone. Then I noticed her iPhone. What the hell? She’s going to change it just because of a single scratch. Not fair at all.
” There you go. You are incapable of having a phone. If it happens next time…” Jason was about to scold but she stopped the conversation.
” Let’s see it next time. Bye,” She rushed off the stairs.
” Don’t get me wrong. But I don’t like her attitude.” I confessed.
” I get it. She’s always like that. Don’t mind it.”
” Can we go to the pool now?” Jason added.
