Hey! Sorry for the Flashbacks, Hunter is somewhat like a descendant from the Internet Explorer era, and so is the author's mental condition. -__-

Hunter's POV
(Flashback continuation)

         That night was the most hell of an awkward sleep I ever had. C'mon syllabicate with me! AWK-WARD!

        Witnessing how the girl I like and my ex's current boyfriend doing that pounding thing, how am I supposed to feel comfortable, huh?! What's worse is that both of them have a memorable past, and that is something I couldn't erase from Enleigh's heart.

        Poor me, always wanting love from people who don't make an effort to love me back.

        Late morning came and they both left the unit, and as soon as they closed the door I crawled out from the under like an old, injured snake. Aagggh terrible aching body!

       I then went back to my apartment and ate almost everything edible in the fridge. An hour later, I was about to drift to my deep sleep when suddenly...

      "HOLY F*CKING SHIT!"

      |Calling Adee...|

      *Ugh. Hello?!* Adee answered in annoyance. Hell O.

       "Mind if I disturb? I forgot. What time shall I go there for the proj?"

       *Yeah. 2PM.*

       "Should I bring our buddy snack??"

        Doritos.

       *Of coouurse!* she excitedly squealed.

        I chuckled to her response. "Is someone with you there??"

       *Yeah, Danthony's here.*

        "Wooow. Haha." Surprised, I slightly laughed. "Okay then, bye."

       Wow. Two women in just a half-day. Way to go Danthony! ../.

       *Uhm okay... Bye, see you later Hun...ter.* She joked. Again.

        |Call Ended|

         Speaking of Doritos, I then bought 6packs (not abs) of it and a jar of chili salsa. I can already visualize how we would messily pour all of the deflated packs combined with our favorite dip in a gigantic bowl, and then watch Netfli- oh I mean do our project all afternoon.

        Just like how we used to do it years way back.

        I was packing and thinking of our materials when suddenly Adee called back.

        "Hey Adee... So?" I answered with a smirk.

       *Hu-hunter...* Her voice broke.

        "Hey stop crying... What happened?" I worriedly calmed her.

        *It's not working.*

        "Wait, wha-" she suddenly cut the line.

        I just knew what she was talking about- our plan of making Danthony jealous (see chap 9). Oh Adee, how am I suppose to say what I already knew about them? :/

*~*~*~*~*~

Danthony's POV
(Present time already, happy? :D)

        Fuck it. I just wanna explode with all these boggling thoughts in my head at the moment!

       It's been a week since I revealed to Adee the connection I have with Enleigh, and I didn't communicate with her since that day coz I was really thinking of a better solution how to get my X without Adee asking Y.

      Wow, I'm talking Math. Credits to a status I saw on Facebook.

       Besides, last week was our midterms so I had a reason not to respond to her endless texts, restless voicemails and nonstop calls.

        Nah, hell I care about midterms. Fuck my scores.

        Now I'm lacking out of alibis to ignore her. There's no way I'm living like this forever. I just feel trapped, imprisoned. If only I could escape without getting the keys from Adee.

        |Calling Enleigh...|

        Sorry, couldn't help but press on her name. Just a stubborn, hard-headed guy still yearning for a tempting, forbidden girl.

      *What're you up to now?* She naughtily answered my call.

       I just smirked with droopy eyes. "Enleigh..." I smilingly mumbled. "My baby Enleigh..."

       I heard her laugh in a sexy manner. *Idiot. Why you called?*

       I sighed. "Nothing... I just feel like ditching today."

      *What's new? You always feel like ditching... Like, everyday.* She softly giggled.

        "Mind if you join me?" I evilly offered.

        *What?! No! You really didn't learn your lesson last week?? You want us to get caught again?? No.*

        "Pleassse..." I pleaded like a hungry kid. "I just couldn't get enough of you."

        Silence on the other line... You better think well, Enleigh Camille.

       *But... Ugggh I still have my class right now in Bio.*

       Hah! She finally gave in.

       "Don't bother... I'll wait for you then." I instantly answered with a happy grin.

       *You addict,* she teased me, emphasizing that word, and then she cutely ended our convo. *Hey our prof is back. Byebyebye.*

        |Call Ended|

        Yeah, I'm quite a perverted addict only when it comes to her.

•••••••••

       While counting my steps up to the Science building, I accidentally bumped into someone I used to know.

       "Owww watch where you're goi-" she  stopped protesting after recognizing my face.

        "Oh. Danthony..." She mumbled.

        "Milly." I smirked, seeing Stevan's ex-girlfriend.

       We decided to walk together and she started to open a convo just to break the silence.

       "It's been a long time..." She smiled and faced me. "What're you doing here? You have a chemistry class?"

       "Nah, going to fetch Enleigh in a while."

        "Whoa wait... Did I hear it right? Ennie and not Adee??" She questioned in shock.

        "Mmhhm.." I gently nodded my head.

       "Wow Danthony. You're still the almighty flirting transferee-magnet I know." She laughed and slapped my arm.

     "And so were you." I shortly made a comeback.

      "Sshhh that was years ago!" Now she punched my chest.

      Speaking of years ago, I'll just gonna tell this just in case the setting is a bit blurry to you.

      I first saw Enleigh at the back of the section A class as a nerdy transferee- a pretty-nerdy transferee. I was just a mere section C student, so I asked my best bud Stevan to ask his section A girlfriend for the name of the new girl on their class.

      By the way, don't ever wonder why an A student like Milly would be close to our section coz Joshen, Leon, Stevan and of course, Me are known as the most good-looking group in middle school.

      I don't mean to brag here, but yeah. \m/

     Knowing my motive, Milly made herself close to Enleigh so that it's easy for her to bridge us. Luckily, Milly's flirting skill was so versatile that it was pretty applicable for both boys and girls, and so they both became bestfriends later on.

      A few months after I broke up with Enleigh, I heard that she and Milly transferred to another school, and they just went back here for college.

      The question is how did Milly know about Adee. Oh well, what's the purpose of her multitasking ears.

      "Hey is Troyd really here??" Milly started another topic.

      See? Salute her ears.

      "Yeah, what now?" I answered in a bored tone.

      "Oh c'mon you already know what to do! As a payment for bridging you to Enleigh. Pleeaase??" She twinkled her eyes as she pleaded.

      I laughed sarcastically. "Yeah right. No thanks to you we-"

      "Milly!" I abruptly cut my words as I heard Enleigh from a distance.

       "Ennie!" Milly ran towards her.

       Ugh. As if they never met last week.

       "Oh hi, Danthony. Dropping by?" She faced me with a bored tone, mounting her brow up.

        "Drop the attitude En." I grinned and pinched her chin.

        Her pretty eyes just got themselves rolling as she gently shooed my hand away. "Whatever."

        Seriously?

       "Okay...so I'll just go ahead. Bye you two! Be aware." She grinned as she warned about Adee.

        "We already are. Now go!" I said with a slight laugh as I made a shoo gesture.

*~*~*~*~*~*~

Enleigh's POV

         Our Bio class just ended. I looked around, trying to spot Danthony somewhere... And there he is. With Milly! Wow. And so the flirt meets the flirtier again. Ugh.

        Okay Enleigh. Stay cool.

        "Milly!" I screamed pretending I didn't see him too.

       "Ennie!" She squealed back.

       "Oh hi Danthony. Dropping by?" Nah, couldn't resist not noticing him.

       "Drop the attitude En."

        "Whatever."

         Milly then said goodbye and we were left alone walking in the hallway.

         "So..." Danthony gently sleeked his warm palm on my waist, holding me close to his body.

         That move was a hell turn-on but...

         "Don't...touch me." I firmly mumbled in slight anger. As an obedient flirt, he did.

        "Hey, what did I do?" He worriedly asked.

        "Nevermind. Where's 4D?" I changed the topic.

       "Uhm... There. Beside the entrance."

        He opened 4D's door for me and I just slammed my butt on the seat, closing the door myself. Puzzled Danthony just went to the other side.

       No, it's not the other side like in The Vampire Diaries. I mean the other side of his car.

       Bad joke, I know. It just popped into my mind.

••••••••••

        We're already a few blocks away from school and I have been sensing him through my peripheral view, looking worried at me.

        "Psst," he tried catching my attention while he's driving. "Enleigh."

        "What..." I answered while randomly scanning my phone. I sighed, still looking at my phone. "Where are we going?"

       He didn't respond to it, instead he abruptly stepped on the brakes after he parked aside, making me throw myself a bit forward.

      "What the... What's wrong with you?!" I slapped his arm as I touched my throbbing heart.

       "I should be the one asking you that." He sincerely gazed into my eyes.

       "It's nothing." I crossed my arms and sighed again.

        "We're not going anywhere unless you tell me."

       "Figure it out." I challenged, still lazy to tell him why.

       "Oh c'mon I'm taking architecture not psychology!" He pouted. So charming!

        No Enleigh. Focus on being mad.

       "Uggh. It doesn't matter," I rolled my eyes. "Common sense is hereditary to mankind I dunno why your DNAs forgot to encode it to your system. I think they're drunk in radiation or something."

       "Don't talk stupid science on me En you know how much I curse that to the core." He childishly covered his ears and hit his head on the steering wheel.

        Stubborn flirt.

       "Wow. To the core. Look who doesn't talk science here." I slightly laughed. Dammit.

       "I'm talking English here. That's an example of an I-dunno-what-kind-of-figure-of-speech phrase, not an eggyolk-like center of the earth." He confidently fought for his shallow reason.

       "Whatever. It's still science." I smiled, accepting defeat on our argument.

       "We reached the earth's stupid core and you're still not telling me what's wrong." He wrinkled his forehead and pouted again.

        I looked at him, fluttering my eyes as I fakely smiled. "Milly's prettier today, don't you think?"

        Please. Take even a piece of the hint.

        "Yeeaah, I guess."

        Ugh. Stupid insensitive flirt.

        He almost laughed. "I-is that it?" Nah, he already did. "Hahahaha."

        "Ha. Ha. Ha. So funny." I mocked.

        "Ha. Ha. Ha. So jealous."

        "What did you say?!"
 
        "Nothing. I said she'll never be a threat." He assured.

         "Huh. Yeah right. Until she flirts with you and you'll be giving in."

          Strangely, his eyes slowly looked down in sorrow, making his fingers perfectly slip on mine. "I'm sorry... I really am."

         Sincerity flashed out of his eyes. Where is this drama coming from?!

        "It's fine, I'm used to it. You always hurt me...whether in bed or not." I naughtily grinned.

        He slightly chuckled, and slowly he looked straight into my tiny mouth, making his teeth grip on his lower lip.

        I got lost just by looking at the way he looked at me, too lost that I didn't even notice him drawing his face closer and closer. I just regained my senses when his lips was already brushing and dancing with mine, his palm cupping my face with all warmth and affection.

       Ugh. Screw you damn good kisser. Screw you to the core.

       "Ouch!" I suddenly pulled my lips out of his agressive kiss. "What was that for?!"

       Well he just sucked his teeth on my lips- enough for it to look enticingly pouty. No. I mean ewwly swollen. Ew.

       "See? I can hurt you in my car too." He childishly grinned.

       The F.

       "Idiot! Look what you did to my lips! It got stiff and hard, plenty of blood must've rushed into it. Aww shit." I almost cried looking at the mirror, pressing the bump on my lower lip.

       Pause.

      "Wow. Stiff and hard, plenty of blood must've rushed into it," He repeated what I said, and I just knew why.

      He gulped and looked at it.

      I gulped and looked at it.

      Well I didn't mean to awaken his long-asleep buddy!

       We looked into each other, our minds conveying the same thought.

     "You know what this means?" He sent a naughty clue.

       I slightly laughed, little anger slowly ceasing away. "Yeah. Now start driving."

      Oh my what am I talking about.

      "Hey... Who'll be driving this time?" He grinned with a shade of green.

      "Ugh. Fine. I will." I rolled my eyes. For the nth time.

      "Hmm. A new ride experience." He then excitedly muttered as he started his car.

       No, we're not doing it again. Trust me.
