Chapter 7
Victor’s pov
Waking on a king-sized bed is sure different from the bed in the dorms. I went to get some water downstairs, on my way I checked on David in his room. He was asleep in his room with two girls in his arms. Lucky Fuck boy. The guest rooms were filled with horny couples that had a wild night. They sprawled around the whole place. The whole house stinks, I don’t think I can drink water anymore. I called in a house cleaning service to clean up this mess. I went to the bathroom to clean myself up and headed to the library to study, my exams are starting next week.
The library was scanty as it was supposed to be, I sat down to study some files I had on my phone. After a while I stood up to get a book from the shelf, one of the girls I used to have a thing with was lurking around the library. When she saw me she pulled me to the end of the library and pinned me to the wall. The alpha in me took over. Why would a girl pin me down? I released her grip on me, then I took over. I held her neck lightly then I pressed my lips against hers, soon our tongues were inside each other’s throats. I didn’t mind a quickie here. An image of Eloise flashed through my mind. The fuck? Why did she show up in my mind? I heard a sound, like someone touching the books on the shelf I pinned this girl to. That startled us and we let go of ourselves.
“I’m sorry for interrupting your moment,” The person turned to us to say. It turned out to be Eloise. She was in my mind to stop me, she even showed up here to interrupt my good time. “Eww, How did you end up kissing this pig? She said to the girl I made out with, she shook her and made a funny sound with her teeth then she left. She called me a pig. Me? A pig? But wait she saw me kiss this girl, now I’m embarrassed.
“Where were we?” The girl asked as she pulled the collar of my cloth so I could be closer to her. I detached her hand from my cloth.
“That’s enough. I’m not in the mood anymore,” I left her by the shelf and I went out of the Library. My phone is ringing, this is rare, I checked to see the caller’s id, It was my second brother. This was a surprise, of course, I didn’t hang up.
“What a pleasant surprise. How is Paris?”
“Great, I would be coming back to see mom next week.”
“Just mom?”
“And of course Victoria.”
“Ah, you don’t want to see me. NICE.”
“You are still as childish as ever. Anyway, I need you to take a look at our cafes around your school. I plan to propose to Cecilia when I get back, so pick the best one.”
“Congrats man, I will do my best for Cecilia.”
“Merci bouq, Au revoir.”
“Au revoir Brother,” I hung up and headed to check out the cafes. My brother is a Coffee Barista. He started it out in his freshman year, and by the time he graduated, he already opened a few cafes around the school. Everyone in my family attended this university, Victoria is also preparing to get in.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The first cafe was quite okay, but it didn’t seem like what Cecilia would like, the same as the remaining cafes. My stomach grumbled I have not eaten today so I entered a nearby restaurant to get something to eat. I walked up to the counter and placed my order. I turned around to find a nice place to sit. My eyes met some familiar eyes, Eloise. Again? This is an opportunity to explain what she saw. Why do I owe her an explanation? Well, I don’t know. Somehow I found myself going to where she sat.
“Hi, Can I sit?” I asked her hoping she won’t decline.
“Sure.” Wow, she agreed, What has gotten into her?
“About what you saw in the library…”
“It’s nothing, I didn’t see anything,” She interrupted me. What is her deal? I am scared now. Maybe she is just a mature person.
“You are beautiful by the way,” I said, I don’t know why I said that but she did look so beautiful. I think I saw her blush.
“I bet you say that to every girl.” Here she goes again, Judging me.
“Just because you saw me kiss that girl you think I go around sticking my tongues down multiple girls’ throats? That’s not cool.”
“I didn’t say that.” She sounded like she knew I was getting angry.
“I am a man with his own needs so pardon whatever you saw. You might consider taking charge of my needs.” I laughed and she joined me. ” I am joking. You are beautiful, I wanted to tell you at the party but you left angrily.
“Hi Dad,” I heard her say. She stood up to greet a man that seemed to be her dad.
“Good day sir,” I stretched my right hand to greet him. “Good day, ma’am” I greeted the woman I assumed to be her mom beside him.
Her dad shook me and said to her. ” Is he the actual reason why you moved out?” Did she move out? She probably needed her personal space. I also prefer my personal space. We all sat down and the waiter brought the menu then we placed our order.
“NO, why are you overthinking?” She said to him, I suddenly miss my old man.
“Don’t mind your dad, we just miss you that is why he is acting like this.” Her mom put her hand over hers to rub it. She slipped her hands away carefully so no one would notice. There is something up with these two but I will just mind my business. “Is this your boyfriend?” The waiter brought our food.
“NO,” We said together almost yelling. “We are just acquaintances.” Eloise continued.
I think I heard her dad say better. We ate in silence and he paid for our meal. Eloise saw her parents off to their car and I waited for her in front of the restaurant. After they left, she came to meet me.
“Let me be a gentleman and walk you home. “I want to walk home on my own, I need to clear my head. “Thank you for your offer.” She declined politely, she seemed like she was down. She needed the space.
“OK, See you around.” I waved to her, ignoring my subconscious that wanted to follow her. I can’t go to jail for my stupid subconscious if I get convicted of stalking. I walked back to the library to continue studying. I better tell my brother to propose to Cecil in the restaurant instead.
