Chapter 8

Seth's POV I wiped the invisible sweat on my hands to the side of my pants, a little uneasy with all six pairs of orbits staring straight at me. "Okay, so you're telling us that you meet up with your high school friend and you ended up sleeping over?" Raze asked, his arms across his chest. I nodded a little vigorously. "And that the high school friend was a boy?" Mono grilled. Again, I nodded. I scold myself for being a little careless. After I called Zaya's Mom, I went to their dorm and brought some of her favorite food. Imagine how shocked Cali is when she opened the door and found me. I had to explain that Rosé's and my family are close and that her mom had sent me to bring her stuff. Though a little skeptical, I was glad that she allowed me to come in. A smile slowly crept on my lips after remembering what happened in her room. This was the first time I had a real conversation with her without bickering with each other. I get that she hated my guts because I have been a real jerk to her since day one but I was happy to know that she had been dreaming about me these past few days. I can still feel her soft body against mine after cuddling. I sigh in relief after remembering how she said that she doesn't really hate me. I was about to go home but when she asked me to stay, I can't help but agree. I know that she's not herself that and if she was, she would have flipped really bad but I don't even care right now. And because she smells really good and perhaps due to exhaustion, I fell asleep beside her. I was a little intimidated after I woke up and found her other members glaring at me in the living room. But they never asked anything. I had to leave even before she wakes up because it's past seven in the morning. And of course, some netizens saw me and took some pictures. My hair disheveled and my clothes crimpled didn't really help which is why my members are interrogating me right now. I never told them where I went. Of course, I can't because I would surely get into big trouble. I haven't even told them what's between me and her. "And you can actually smirk at this time huh?" Storm said which snapped me away from my thoughts. "Oooh, Seth has a girlfriend!!!" I glared at Sky who was dancing along with Demo and Grey. "You have a girlfriend?" Raze added. "Who is it? Is it your 'princess'?" Grey chimed in doing some kissing sounds while Sky was laughing his ass off. "Did you just finger quoted me?" I asked him but he just grinned at me. "Ohhhh, so that's why you were near that place huh?" Demo added, jumping up and down a little too excited. "Wahhh!!! Did little Seth have some?" I threw a pillow to Mono who was wiggling his eyebrows. "Yah! I don't have a girlfriend." I told them, my cheeks already blushing. "Fuck you Sky" I mumbled. He was the only person in the room in Serene Musics when I called Zanaya princess while she was sleeping. He just grinned at me. "So, did you or did you not went to her dorm?" Demo asked he was grinning at me as if thinking that this scenario was something amusing. "I..." my voice came out as a whisper. I can't possibly tell them because I don't even know how to explain. "So you did?" Grey asked as he ran straight to me, sitting beside me. "So how is it?" "What, I did not?!" "You did! It was so obvious and your cheeks are blushing. Ge'ez, Seth. You look like a girl caught red-handed with your crush." Storm laughed. I covered my face. I hated how these boys can easily read my mind. Grey and Sky were now rolling over the floor. I stood up and kicked the two. "Seth." Raze called, looking serious along with Mono. "You need to tell us because they will ask, okay." I sigh while looking at our leader. Of course, I understood. Because of the photos online, some fans are thinking that I slept with my girlfriend. "I just checked on her to see if she's getting better." At that, the rest of the boys stood up cheering. "Oh yeah, I told you. Give me my five bucks Grey!" Sky said as he lay his hands over the young man. Grey just scratched the back of his head. "You did a bet on me?" I asked exasperated. Raze and Storm just laughed at my face. "We did. And Demo, you owe me ten bucks. I told you he won't be home." Mono added. "Hey!!!" I stomped my feet. And I laugh as the boys just played with each other apart from Storm who went back to sleep on the corner. I smile. These are the boys that had been staying with me ever since. I felt a little guilty for not telling them the truth but then again, them knowing might hurt not only them but a lot of people. I can't possibly let that happen. I can't let the people I love get hurt, even if it means staying a jerk to my secret wife. Though I'm not really sure myself as she'd been bothering my mind a lot lately. If I being honest, I am starting to think that marrying her was a good idea. But then again, we started off on a wrong foot, and my pride is big enough for me to tell it straight to her face. After what happened at her dorm, I'm not quite sure what I'd do once I see here again. I closed my eyes when I realized something. I want to see her again. Fuck. You're in a big trouble Seth Devon.
