16 Thanks?

I didn't know when I slept off but I woke up with the same feeling as before I slept, my eyes and body crave Damien but I can't voice it out, I'm too prideful for that and I'm not ready to give anyone the satisfaction of knowing I'm slightly attracted to them.

Checking the time on the newly added table clock, I saw it was already evening, 4:23 pm to be precise, the sun's already preparing to leave the sky and it's high time I have another meal.

But I don't want to see Claire and her friends though, I know I caused one hell of a drama back then and I feel both slightly embarrassed and apologetic since the poor girls were only trying to be nice and caring in their way so I decided to stall a little bit.

I couldn't help but think about my phone at this moment, there are so many things I could use it to do right now, keep myself busy and stall the feeling of hunger and the likes or even call Emily over and make her bring the food upstairs since at least that way life would be a little less hard for me.

After a few minutes and multiple growlings from my stomach, I decided to just go and face my problems and stop suffering myself.

Opening the door, I came face to face with a very huge surprise. I couldn't believe my eyes and my heartstrings tugged while tears threatened to spill as I laid my eyes on the traveling bag and box in front of me knowing they're mine.

All feelings except happiness flew away as I crouched and touched the bags, more like felt it since I couldn't believe my eyes.

I know that sometimes, the brain deceives and lets one belief what's not true.

After touching the cold and leather material of the bag, a stray tear fell off its holds, and just like that, the rest followed earning the title 'little rebellions' since they came out despite my restraints.

Cleaning the tears quickly so anyone won't see not that anyone's around anyway, I dragged the bags inside since they were very heavy.

Getting into the room, I remembered Samantha telling Claire to make sure my stuff was delivered safely to me and I couldn't be happier they did come safely.

Opening the bags I saw that the people Damien sent did a very good job. They brought all the things I would need which is practically the entire house except the kitchen utensils, the things in the sitting room, and some other irrelevant stuff.

But there was only one important thing as of the moment, my phone and I can't feel happier than this as I saw it in the space beside the last bag.

I left all the other stuff and faced my current priority.

Switching on my phone which surprisingly did (I thought it would be dead by now), I saw my missed calls and messages and I couldn't be more relieved.

Somehow I was wondering if my dad would have felt that something was wrong somewhere since even if I don't want to pick his calls, I don't ignore it for complete three days but since he just gave me five missed calls I guess he didn't sense anything.

I texted him to tell him I'm okay and he shouldn't worry about me since I'll be coming home soon then I lied on the bed with my face up.

'Would I be able to leave this place very soon? Honestly, I don't understand how my life would go from this moment, I didn't sign up for all this and I have a life outside this pack walls, how do I go about it?'

I know I shouldn't think about it since currently there is no solution so I went back to my phone and chatted my friends up.

We gisted about everyone and everything and I found a source of a laugh once again.

I made sure I get updated about every single thing I'm interested in.

"This is why I didn't want Claire using a phone" I heard a deep voice which brought good chills down my spine.

Facing the direction where the voice came from, I saw the one person I'd wanted to see for a very long time.

One thing is I can't describe the happiness inside of me right now, I want to jump on him so badly and hug him forever and then make him promise not to leave me alone ever again.

But I didn't, I couldn't.

It would make me look desperate and weird and I don't want to be that.

"Good evening" was all I could say as I stared at him trying to make sure I imprint his lost parts in my brain, I don't know why I'm doing that though but I couldn't help myself, I know I'm falling for him and I kind of have no complaints.

"Evening" he replied with a smirk-like smile and that was my cue to take my eyes away from his face before I jump him.

How can he be looking that good and then smile like that, it should be illegal

"I brought you dinner, Claire told me you haven't left the room since breakfast," he said moving closer to where I was making me notice the tray he was holding

"Yeah" I replied since it feels like I lost tons of my brain cells with the way his cologne filled my sense, he smelled so good

"Why was that?" he asked as he placed the tray on the bedside table

"Maybe because I was angry since someone decided to leave me alone to his super rude sister and her friends," I said but I know that isn't true, Claire wasn't rude and her friends were nice, I was the one acting like the bitch I am and picking up the bad things that aren't there.

"Claire was rude?" he asked as something I could associate with rage flashed in his eyes

"No, she wasn't," I said, "you are the rude one, you left me alone here and make me see strangers every fucking day, you left me alone in bed without thinking twice and you made me feel bad about myself, you make me cry and angry and then you put me in danger?!" I said with emotions rushing inside of me, ranging from anger to sadness to happiness to rage

"I'm so sorry," he said with a pitiful face and I couldn't help but feel bad about scolding him "I had my reasons for leaving and I didn't mean to hurt you, I just felt like you wouldn't want to see me and... I have no excuse, I'm sorry," he said while looking into my eyes, or should I say staring into my souls with his dark greyish eye

"I'm hungry," I said wanting to break the tension between us, the atmosphere is too tense and I can't stand it, I can't afford to think about him sexually again tonight since I know the shitty things I wanted to do to myself the last time I did.

"Okay" he replied before shifting the table to my front and I didn't waste any time as I devoured my food.

It wasn't until I looked at the time before I realize it was already very late

"It's already after 8!" I exclaimed as I stared at the window to see how dark it was outside

How the freaking hell did I not realize that, what is wrong with me!

"Yup, and why'd you think I said 'this's why I don't want Claire using a phone'" he said smiling and I remembered he said something like that, I didn't process what he said as of when he was saying it.

"And why's that?" I asked

"You didn't know when I entered the room and didn't realize I was there until I spoke," he said and I couldn't close my opened mouth

"What the hell!" I exclaimed once again making him laugh and permit me to say, I can do anything to make him laugh once again

"Thanks," I said with a smile

"Thanks?" he replied with a confused smiley face

"For bringing my things here," I said and he nodded knowingly while still smiling

"You wanted it" was his reply and I couldn't help but feel like kissing him

My next line of action was super spontaneous as I didn't think before doing it and I couldn't say exactly why I did it other than I felt like it was the right thing to do

I kissed Damien.
