☆☆NAMES☆☆

I took a shower, and decided to wear something that i usually don't go with. I wore brownish off shoulder crop top with a black mini skirt.

It isn't slutty, right? I asked to my own reflection.

No, its not. I replied for myself. I mean they all wears even less than this always.

I went downstairs to prepare breakfast.

"Are you-

I turned around to find a jaw dropped, wide eyed tattooed boy looking at me.

"Yes i am preparing breakfast" i said, knowing  what he was going to ask.

"Um, okay."he muttered. He is acting weird now.

He came and stood beside me, leaning against the kitchen counter.

"And tell her that the breakfast is in kitchen."

"Tell whom?" He gave me a confused look.

"My roommate. Whom do we have in common, except her?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

And he erupted in laughter. I was angry but, i would be lying if i told that hearing his laughter didn't gave me butterflies in the stomach.

Now that he was standing this close, i noticed the green color of eyes, it was a different shade of green, that i have never seen before. His eyes are so deep, like i can drown in them.

He snapped his fingers in front of my face, bringing me back to reality.

"Listen, Miss Whoever you are, I Mr. Whoever You are is your official housemate." He announced.

I gasped in shock.

Well, it was a bit dramatic, but i did.

Didn't the house owner warned me that my housemate will be a boy?

He probably did, but you didn't have the time to pay attention.

Well even if i would have listened to his warning, it wouldn't have changed the fact that it was the only house in my budget to rent near my college.

I was trying to contain my smile later, when i remembered that he copied the name that i called him, with the very first day.

"What's funny?" He snapped, his eyes back to being harsh as usual.

"So, you are back to being rude." I commented.

"I was never nice." He muttered, shrugging his shoulder.

"What are we having for breakfast by the way? Now that your 'she' housemate is not here to eat." He mocked.

"You better stop making fun of me or you are not going to have any break fast." I warned, pointing a spoon toward him.

He raised his both hands in surrender.

He was wearing a white t-shirt and black jeans with a pair of black boots.

"I can drive you to college, to return the favour." He said, rubbing his nape.

"Thank you." I muttered.

"You um- you are - today-

"WHAT?" I shouted, knowing that he was going to insult me again.

"Never mind" he said, leaving the kitchen. Blushing? Maybe.

I prepared pancakes. I had one and gave two to him, knowing that his stomach can definetly have more than me. He ate one standing in the kitchen.

"You shouldn't eat while standing, come sit." I told him, patting the chair beside mine.

He just rolled his eyes, and kept standing.

"We should leave now" he said, mouthful of pancakes.

"Geez, don't speak while chewing." I gave him a disgusted look.

"Is it necessary to do everything in a very ladylike manner in your own house, in front of no one?" He asked, raising his eyebrows, pointing to the air around us.

"I am here." I muttered.

He waved me off.

He was walking to his car, while eating his pancake. Is he doing this to provoke me?

The ride to college was silent, not awkward though. I caught him glancing at me now and then, from the corner of my eyes.

He pulled at the college's parking lot and we both got out at the same time.

"I can drive you home, after college." He said, rubbing his nape.

"N-

"Did you hear my name?" He asked, looking in the left direction then right.

"No, i didn't" i blurted.

He smirked at me.

"Hey, i don't even know your name."

"I am Divine Smith" he said, smirking.

"And i-uh- i am Natasha, Natasha Lorraine." I told him.

Suddenly a girl showed from thin air, and side hugged Divine, he became tensed at first, then relaxed a bit, but he was still uncomfortable.

She was wearing barely present piece of cloth.

And her makeup? It was overdone beyond imagination.

"Another whore, huh?" She asked, smirking, narrowing her eyes at me.

My jaw dropped.

"What?! No, i am not."

"Sure, you aren't." She mocked, giving me a fake smile.

"I am Lexi, by the way." She introduced herself, flipping her hairs back.

"By the look of yours- " I was interrupted.

"Bye, Natasha." Divine interrupted, placing his hands in pocket of his jeans.

"Yeah, sure. Bye!" I waved, walking to my class.

I was in my room and it was 9 p.m. , i had to walk myself home because that boy was nowhere to be found.

We are out of groceries, and i have to tell him, so that he would bring some.

A car engine sounded out of the house, maybe he is back. I went to the stairs, to tell him we are out of groceries. I kept standing on the top stairs.

Two noises were coming from outside, shouting and yelling at each other, one was female voice.

Then Divine came inside, and shut the door behind him. He ran his hand through his hairs, multiple time.

He was dressed in black shirt, black pants and black shoes, and a black tie which was hanging undone around his neck.

He leaned his back against the door, and slowly sat down, and put his head in his hands.

I went downstairs.

"OPEN THE DOOR DIVINE!" a female voice shouted, urgency reflecting through her voice.

"Go fuck yourself, D." He shouted in return.

A car engine roared, hinting that she left.

He sighed, stood up and went to his room, not even glancing towards me.

Should i go behind him?

What if he wants to be alone?

But maybe he's not okay, and needs some company?

So what? He always treats you rudely, there is no need to help him!

But i will go, anyways.

I went to his room. Opened the gate a bit.

He was sitting on the edge of bed, facing the left wall.

"Are you okay?" I asked, standing in the door frame.

No reply.

I went inside and stood in front of him.

"Are you okay?" i asked again.

He pulled me close by my waist, and placed his head on my stomach, his hold around my waist was so tight.

My heart stopped beating for a second. A chill ran down my spine, and i felt electricity wherever his skin was touching, goosebumps rose all over my body. I had all the effects that somebody could just by a mere toch.

"No!" He whisper shouted.

Whatever is wrong with him, it might be something serious, he won't be acting like this if it was not.

And i am not going to ask him many questions. He needs to calm down.

"I am not okay, Nat." He whispered, hiding his head in my stomach, never loosening his clutch around me.

My heart had a mini heart attack when he called me 'Nat'. It was already pounding not to mention.

"Everything will be okay. Don't worry." I whispered, trying to calm him down.

I hesitated first, but then i ran my hand through his hair, stroking softly. He relaxed. It relaxes him, so i kept doing it.
