I exited my first class of the day wondering what all I will pack for the Thanksgiving week. I saw the library on my right and wondered if Janice was in there, I walked in and all eyes were on me. Ignoring the anxious feeling, I walked up and through the aisle for Janice. Where is she? I pouted as I walked out of the computer section. Usually she'll be over here. I looked around and saw these three white girls whispering while staring my way, I raised an eyebrow and glanced behind me to see a brunette reading her book. I slowly turned back to them with a glare on my face, they flinched and quickly turned away. I can't believe the nerve of people, they shouldn't be talking about her like that. I swear. I shook my head and left out of the library.
You know that feeling you get when someone is talking about you, well around 11:15 today I started getting that feeling. When I usually do it's mostly about my afro but I knew the signs of it and what I was picking up was definitely not it. I decided to ignore it and head on to my 2nd class of the day hoping that the feeling would go away. Guess what? It didn't. All through class people kept staring at me and I had to keep calm and not blow up because I was so close. When class ended, I high tailed out of there and onto the quad. I took a couple of deep breaths and went on twitter to make my mood a bit better. I sat at a table and scroll through my feed, tweeting a little, and reading all the crazy ass stories. After awhile I shut it off and started to think about my day and how weird it was going. I don't know what's going on but every time someone walked by I would hear "Her?" or "What does he see in her anyway?" and I'm so close to losing my cool that-
"Excuse me." I snapped out of my thoughts and slowly looked at the voice. There were two girls standing there, a white blonde and an Asian brunette.
I fought the urge to mean mug them "Yes?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Are you Joon's girlfriend?" The blonde one asked.
I frowned "What?" I asked.
The brunette fold her arms "Joon," She looked me over "are you guys dating?" She asked with a little attitude.
I gave her a confused look "Who's Joon?" I pocketed my phone "And where did you get that idea from?" I asked with narrowed eyes.
Blonde put her hands on her hip "He's Joon." She nodded her head over her shoulder "He told us you guys were dating but we don't believe him." She explained as I stood up.
I looked over her shoulder and I felt my eyes widen, it was him, the asian basketball player. He was standing there in a long sleeve navy shirt with a dark green aztec cardigan on, dark blue jeans that were cuffed, and dark brown boots. He stood there in thought with his arms folded, he ran his hand through his hair before looking our way. He froze when he saw me staring, he blinked then smiled at me. I slightly glared at him but that only made his smile grow.
I faked a smile to them "Let's go see for ourselves." I stalked in his direction.
He didn't look nervous at all and it kind of threw me off because I was told that I looked an evil troll doll.
"Joon." He answered with a hum "Did you tell these lovely ladies that we are dating?" I asked overly sweetly and gestured to the two girls.
He stared me in my eyes "Why yes I did honey, do you have a problem with that?" He asked as he leaned closer to me.
I faked a smile to the girls "Excuse us for a second." I pulled him at least 5 feet away from them "What the fuck is going on?" I hissed with a smile.
He grabbed my hands "I need your help." He said looking into my eyes.
"With?" I asked as he kissed my hand.
"I'll explain later, just ride with this for now." He smiled and my heart nearly stopped.
I blinked then scrunch my face "How about we break up right now?" I threaten.
His grip tighten on my wrist "Two factors," I tilt my head and raised an eyebrow "One, good luck with that because everyone on campus knows that we're together." He pulled me into his chest "Two, if you stage a break up I will sabotage this season and say it was due to my heart break that was cause because and I don't think you would want 3/4's of the campus hating you." He smiled evilly before resting his head on top of mine.
I gaped at him what he said then thought about it, I could give not one fuck what anybody thinks about me and I will gladly give them a beat down if they try me. But the more I stood in his embrace the more I wondered what the hell this is about and why he chose me. I shifted in his arms and I felt him tense and slowly relax. Hmmm, I shifted again and he tensed again. Does he not like to be touch?
I pulled away from him and smirked up at him "If you wanted to date me so bad you didn't need to threaten me." I said nonchalantly "Just ask me on a date like any regular person, ok?" I teased.
He turned red "I-"
Someone cleared there throat, we turned and saw the two girls standing there. Ooops, forgot they were there. I looked at blonde because she was the one that asked.
"So, you are dating?" Blonde ask with a frown.
I pulled out of his embrace "No we're not." I stated, I felt him tense next to me. I might as well have fun for now.
He let out a laugh which I think was fake "Babe, what are you talking about. You know we're together." He gritted through a smile.
I took a small step away from him so I could look up at him "Not after what you did last night." I rolled my neck.
He raised an eyebrow, looking confused "Last night? What did I do?" He demanded.
I smiled inwardly as I glanced at them, they stood there in curiosity with a hint of jealousy while they watch us.
"Remember?" I took a step toward him "We were at it" I looked him in his eyes as I closed the distance "and it was feeling so good." I moaned "And you got me to the highest of highs" I traced his lips with my index finger "And you suddenly" I took a step away from him "stopped. Remember that?" I asked in mock anger.
He went pale and I wonder what was going on with him, he quickly snapped out of it and looked at me like he found something.
He looked down at me with a pout "I said I was sorry babe, I thought you forgave me when I cooked for you?" He grumbled.
I smirked "You thought it was going to be that easy?" I smiled at him "I'll forgive you, only if you kiss me." I winked.
An anxious look took over his face as he stiffen and the blonde scoffed and smiled at me patronizingly "He has this thing about-"
He cupped my face and kissed me gently, I was a surprised because I didn't think he'll actually do it. What the shit? He started pulling away but I pulled him closer and ran my hands under his shirt which caused him to gasp. I quickly stuck my tongue in his mouth and we were having a full fledge make-out. When I thought they had enough I pulled back and stared at him in awe because he wasn't that bad, he was pretty good.
I caught my breath, "You were saying?" I asked, smirking over at them.
They looked between us before staring at him "I never thought you would stoop for a black girl." The brunette said with a frown.
I laughed humorlessly as I started to roll my sleeves up, No she didn't. She must want these hands.
"Sweetie, you said upgrade wrong." I smiled at her.
The blonde one tilted her head "No, she meant what she said." She looked at him "You can do so much better." She frowned.
I tried to take my earrings off but he caught hold of me "Actually I can't," He held me close to him "she's the best thing that happened to me." He said as he laid his head on top of mine.
I stopped squirming and watched as there face turned from smug into jealousy.
"So I would really appreciate it if you would leave me alone because I'm taken and if you would have any self respect for yourself you would stop the childish antics and continue you on with your lives. But since I know that won't happen because you lack self respect, move onto a new victim." He scolded in disgust.
Daaaaaaaaamn, I watched there faces and they were in almost in tears. They apologized and turned away from us in defeat.
"You just tore down there self esteem." I pointed out in awe as I watched them walk away sadly.
"Uh." I turned to him and he was looking sheepish with his hand behind his neck "Yeah, I didn't want them to keep insulting you because I could barely contain you so I decided to say that." He muttered.
I felt a little bad for them until I remembered why we were here in the first place "So," I drawled as I looked up at him "why am I your 'girlfriend' again?" I asked.
He stiffen and was about to say something until he noticed that people were looking our way "I rather tell you in private." He said as he bit his lip.
I stared at his lip then into his eyes "Follow me, I know just the place."
"Are your roommates here?" He asked ten minutes later. He looked around our living room like he was trying to figure something out.
I sat my book bag down on the couch "Nope," I checked the time on my phone 12:57 "they're all at class." I motioned for him to take a seat, he did "Now spill." I demanded.
He stared at me from head to toe before looking at my face, he stared at me for a minuted and I was getting irritated.
I stood in front of him "Joon, I will post our 'break up' on twitter and yik yak if you don't start talking." I threaten as I lifted my phone up.
His eyes turned dark before he stood up, I felt fear creep up on me but I shook it off because I'm no weak bitch. He grabbed my hand and forced me to sit down, he released my hand before sitting down next to me.
He took a deep sigh as he threw his head back, "Ok," He sat up straight and turned to me "I don't know you that well and you don't know me that well so I will tell you partially the truth until I trust you." I pondered on it and what he said was true so I agreed "Truth for now, I'm dealing with" he paused with a pain expression "things right now and I can't focus on that because Mike put a 'hit' on me with half the girls on this campus." I nodded because I've heard about it from Nidia but I didn't know it was him "I tried being nice to them and as you can see that didn't work it just made them want me more. What sense does that make?" He exclaimed.
I shrugged "I guess that made you more attractive to them." I guessed before resting into my seat "But what does this have to do with me?" I questioned.
He rest his arm on the back of the couch and bit his lip again before turning to me "Well," He paused and glanced away "you seem to always be in your own world and not care about anything around you, you're kind of intimidating so I knew most of the girls would leave you alone." I stared at him blankly because those reasons were he dumbest I've heard.
"-and you don't seem that much attracted to me."
I looked at him in shock "What??" I exclaimed as I stood up "You think I'm not attracted to you?" I asked confused where he would get that from and stared at him in disbelief "Have you seen yourself? You fine and I'm attracted to anything that's fine-"
He looked up at me, startled, and slightly frowned "That's not good then." He muttered as he crossed his legs.
I nodded happily at this "See, now-"
"But it's already out there so-"
"We can break up." I smiled.
He furrowed his eyebrows "No." He demanded calmly.
"What?" I grimaced "Yes!" I yelled.
He stood up and towered over me "Why?"
I gave him a confused look "You just said that it wasn't good that I'm attracted to you!" I exclaimed.
"I did." He agreed "But it doesn't matter now because-"
"Yandy!" my eyes widen at Sandy's yell and I turned to Joon, we both had the same panic face "why are people saying that you're dating that Korean basketball guy?" Sandy asked from her room.
"I thought you said your roommates were gone?" He hissed at me.
I glared at him "They are" I paused "well suppose to be. How am I suppose to know she skipped class!?" I hiss back.
He rubbed his temples and muttered in what I'm guessing was Korean. I started to say something until I heard her door open.
"Yandy, I know you heard me!" I heard her steps meaning she was walking towards the living room. We looked at each other and started to panic, he tried to hid behind the arm of the couch but I could still see his tall ass.
I looked around and saw the TV stand "Behind the TV stand. "I whispered yelled at him.
He nodded and made a run to the TV stand but tripped over Nidia's books, I winced when he landed with a thud. I went over to help him up and I started to push him to the TV stand.
"Yandy, why you-" We froze when she stop talking and slowly turned to her. Sandy stood there in shock with her eyes and mouth open.
Joon cleared his throat and gave her a curt wave "Korean basketball guy." He greeted.
She was embarrassed but she turned to me with narrowed eyes "I thought he wasn't your boy toy?" She accused with a teasing smile.
I glanced at him "He's not." I blurted.
He grabbed my hand "I'm her man." He stated as he pulled me closer to him.
I gaped at him before looking at my sister, she pulled back in shock and looked between us "Since when?" She narrowed her eyes at him "And where did y'all meet?"
I squirmed in his hold "We're not-"
"We take history together." He lied with a smile "And we've been together for three weeks."
I was fazed by that statement but shook out of it and pushed him away "We're-"
"That's why you were defensive Saturday." She said thoughtfully.
"Defensive?" He asked curiously.
I glared at her "I wasn't defensive!" I exclaimed, "I just stated that you wanted to be left alone instead of being with someone." I explained to him.
She raised an eyebrow "But he wasn't." She fold her arms "You had him this whole time, you sneaky bitch." She teased with a smile.
I rolled my eyes before taking a deep breath "No I didn't." His head snapped to me "I never had him to begin with-" I yelped when I felt a pinch on my butt.
I glared at the perpetrator and all he did was tuck me under his arm and smile at my sister.
Sandy awwed then turned to Joon "I'm Sandy, Yandy youngest sister." She greeted as she held her hand out.
He lifted his hand and I slapped it down quickly with a scowl on my face, they both looked at me in shock.
Sandy smirked at me as she put her hands up in defense and took a step back "Easy sis, I don't want him." she giggled then looked at him "Nice meeting you Joon," she looked at me "we'll talk later Yand." and she was gone.
I slowly glared at him "What the hell was that?!" I shrieked not caring that she could hear me.
He flinched and massaged his ear "Your sister meeting your boyfriend."
I closed my eyes and pinched the bridge of my nose, "Get out." I pointed to the door.
"Don't you have-"
I snapped my eyes open and glared at him "Out." I said in a hard tone.
We stared each other down before he nodded his head and walked out of my dorm.
