One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Maxine's Point of View

After sipping the soup Louis gave me I left the room and went downstairs to go to the living room. When I arrived, the five men were gone. Where are they? I just shrugged and walked to the garden. When I saw a small rock I kicked it and then I ran closer to it and kicked it again. That's just what I was doing while heading to the mansion's garden, until I heard Byron's voice calling to me. "Tardy!"

I stopped kicking the rock before I lifted my head and looked for Byron. He waved at me so I noticed him immediately. He took shelter under a big tree and he wasn't the only one there because his cousins were also there. Louis waved at me as Byron did. Sid, on the other hand, has his attention on the phone, he's definitely playing again. Giles just smiled. And Alyn... he was reading a book.

I sparingly smiled at them and remained standing away from them. I would also like to take shelter there but what if they don't want me to be with me? Especially with Alyn, I'm sure he don't want me to be there. Hmp! I'll just go back to the

room.

I was about to turn around and was about to walk back to the mansion when Louis suddenly called to me, "Wendy! Come here!"

I turned to him and saw that he was gesturing me to come close. Shall I come closer? What if Alyn kicks me out? I might just be embarrassed in front of his cousins!

In the midst of the demon and angel arguing in my mind, my foot decided to come closer to where the five were. My gosh! Even my feet have their own brain!

Even before I could get close to them, Louis got up immediately and approached me. He took my hand and helped me to sit up. He sat next to me, Giles was next to me. Giles was next to Sid and next to Louis on his left was Byron who was next to Alyn. Never mind, this is our position;

Alyn II Byron II Louis II Me II Giles II Sid

We were surrounding the tree to make sure we were all sheltering under it.

"How are you feeling? Are you okay?" Giles asked.

I nodded then smiled, "Yep. I'm okay, thanks for Louis' soup," I said and turned to Louis. He smiled at me.

"Huh? What about my fruits?" Giles asked with a frown.

I laughed softly before replying, "Thank you too, Giles."

He shrugged, "You're welcome my Yanny," he even moved his eyebrow up and down while having a wide smile on his lips.

I just laughed and didn't answer. I turned to Louis when he suddenly stood up, he left but returned immediately. He sat down next to me again, I was surprised when he suddenly pushed aside my hair to tuck it at the back of my ear. But I was even more surprised when he tucked a flower to my ear together with my hair.

"Louis," I stared at him and wondered what he had done.

He smiled at me, "You're beautiful," he praised me that makes my heart beat faster.

Damn! What's wrong with him?

I immediately averted my eyes from him. I bowed my head and played with my fingers before replying, "T-Thanks."

I heard his faint laugh, "You're always welcome, Maxine."

Max- what? Did he call me by my name?

My heartbeat quickened even more when he mentioned my name. I immediately raised my head and turned to face him. I stared at him as my eyes widened. It's not just imagination, is it? I actually heard him call me by my name didn't I? "Why? Do I have dirt on my face?" Louis asked when he noticed that I looked at him for a long time. He even wiped his face because I was looking at him so he thought he had dirt on his face.

I immediately nodded, "N-No," damn, do I really have to stutter?

"Are you okay?" Louis tilted his head to see my face when I bent down my head again.

I averted my face from him because I felt like all my blood had risen to my face. My head is now in Giles' direction. Damn. Can he please me later when there's only two of us together? It's embarrassing! We are still with his cousins, they might even tell me that I looked stupid.

My gosh! Now, I'm really sure that I have a crush on Louis!

"Are you feeling bad, Yanny?" Giles looked at me as if examining me, "Do you have a fever? Your face is red."

My eyes widened, "Ha?" I bowed but I also immediately raised my head, "Ah!" I stood up as if I remembered something, "I'm going to sleep, I suddenly felt sleepy. I'll go ahead to you, huh? Bye!" I didn't wait for them to answer and I ran back to the mansion.

My gosh! Embarrassing! What if Louis suddenly figured out that I liked him and so I blushed earlier because I was thrilled at what he did? Argh, please no!

I went straight to the kitchen and poured water into the glass. I was about to drink the water when someone suddenly snatched the glass from me. When I looked back at who it was, my mood immediately changed. It would have been okay if Louis was the one who stole the glass from me but it's not. Why is this one here? If he's thirsty, he can just pour water for himself, not suddenly grabbing the water of others. Argh! "Thanks," said the demon Alyn before he put the glass down on the table.

I just ignored him. I took a new glass and was about to fill it with water when Alyn suddenly snatched the glass from me again. Not only that, he also took the pitcher from me. He poured water to the glass I had taken, when it was full he moved the glass towards me. He knows how to transfuse, why didn't he do it before? He really stole my water! "Drink it," he ordered.

"I said, drink it." he repeats what he said earlier. He even used his head to point at the glass.

"I don't want to! You drank that," I replied to him. Tsk. What does he think of me? Jackass? It's up to him. He should been the one to drink that, after all, he was the one who poured the water there.

"I filled it for you and then you told me I should drink it..." He smirked, "When you should thank me for doing that?"

"Did I tell you to do that?" I rolled my eyes, "You know, if you were done drinking, leave. You don't have anything else to do here."

He looked at me for a while, he just took his eyes off me when someone entered the kitchen. I don't know who it was because I'm still staring at Alyn. Of course, just to be sure he won't do anything funny. Like, what if I turned around to look who entered and then Alyn was doing something to the drink?

Alyn stood up straight while his eyes were still on the person who came. He put down the pitcher he had snatched from me earlier while his gaze was still on the door.

"Your crush is here," after he said that he walked away.

Huh? Crush? Did he mean Louis? My eyes widened and I turned to the door to confirm something.

"Wendy," Louis called me with a smile.

When Louis walked, Alyn exited. Damn. Don't tell me Alyn knows? Gosh. Why does it have to be Alyn? Why him when it can be Giles. Why does Alyn have to be the first to know? I want to devour the earth, now!
