Chapter 2 - Him Part 2

He tries to kick me with his legs but I roll away to avoid him. I stood by the door with my arm crossed just in case he decided to chase me.

I smirk and look at the side of his head " Alex I'm not doing it"

He looks at me and tilts his head a bit " why though"

"What do you mean why"

"I want to know why you won't help"

"Are you listening to yourself?? Why is it necessary??"

"Why do you ask so many questions"

"I love a good revenge but this sounds ridiculous and they're not gonna care"

"Are you gonna help or not"

I stare at him intensely, not even blinking for a second. He got up and walked past me looking at the ground

"Nevermind" he rumbled and walked off.

At that moment my mind was running a mile a minute like seriously why me?? He could have gotten any girl to do it without explaining much. We've grown up together like that wouldn't have gotten anymore weirder than it already did.

I stared off into space trying to piece together what I should do cuz I saw that look in his eyes that I haven't seen before.

Phone came out of the bathroom in her bathrobe and looked at me by her door.

"You good?" she asked as she dried her hair

"yeah" I said kinda lost in my thoughts.

Well after that day I saw him every time Phone and I decided to hang out. We normally hang out at their place but he'd hang around us and mope like it was the end of the world. Phone didn't really understand what was going on and neither of us were gonna explain it.

We would be gossiping or trying to do work and all you would hear is him sighing over and over again. When we'd ask him what's wrong he would just stare at me, pout and sigh nothing. Obviously it was to annoy me and cuz he has nothing on me to force me into helping him.

So we stopped hanging out at their house and started hanging out at mine. Normally we don't hang out at my house because my two little brothers are nosey and will say anything to anyone. But I wanted to avoid him more than the Spanish flu so we were gonna have to put up with my siblings. I really wasn't gonna give in because this dingbat wasn't gonna get shit out of me for the stupidest thing. Well he started hanging out in my house, using the excuse that he was hanging out with my little brothers, Roman and Zain. No one wants to hang out with those two demons so now I knew he was lying about that.

Well let's just say that he came up with plans to annoy me out of my wits. He would send them to ask for homework help and the moment I turned around for a second they would destroy my room and run out. As soon as I found them they would be hiding behind Alex for protection and saying that he told them to do it. Of course I couldn't do anything to him because this man is 6 '3, packed muscles, and would absolutely destroy me in a matter of seconds. They would set up ice buckets, rat traps in the morning, they even buried one of my knitting projects which I made for a client.

I hated him

I hated him so much

They set up traps and would ruin my day in a matter of seconds.

I started to lose it completely.

Eventually 2 weeks later I gave in to him.

It was 6 am in the morning when I finished my jog. I normally finish my runs by 5:30 but I needed a longer run because what I was about to do was either gonna ruin my peace or my life. I reached Alex's house and stood outside his window and called him. I called him like 5 times trying to get a hold of him but this man really didn't wake up. This man had practice in 30 minutes and he still wasn't up, which was surprising cuz he seemed to come to my house every day at exactly 2 pm after practice like a punctual person.

I spotted that his window was open so I put my phone in my short pockets and began to climb up the tree right by the house. It wasn't the first time this has happened and probably won't be the last but I needed to see him before I chickened out. I climbed in and saw him asleep on his bed like a lump of rock. How wouldn't he be tired when he's doing everything in his power to annoy me plus he's working with the two demons. I walked into his bathroom, grabbed a bottle of water and started spraying his face. He bolted awake and nearly screamed until he saw me. The blanket fell off of him and he was just in his shorts. I stood there unfazed, it was nothing new.

"Pervert" he muttered and nearly fell back into bed. I grabbed his arm and dragged him towards the bathroom.

"Shower now. We gotta talk." I whisper yelled at him. It took him a minute but his eyes lit up.

"Did you finally agree?" he whispered with a smirk on his face

"Does that mean I'll finally get peace in my house and my routine?" I asked, crossing my arms, knowing damn well the answer.

"Yes" He said with a smile while he ran his fingers through his hair.

I pushed him into the bathroom and shut the door. I sighed, leaned my head back against the door, and slid down.
