Love Me, My Omega!

Chapter 69 - 68



JUSTIN'S POINT OF VIEW:

It's another year again. I spent New Year's with Tristan. We went out for lunch and spent the night having a movie marathon at his condo.

Now, classes start again, and I'm gonna see Daryl at the campus. We met a while back before New Year's Eve but that was just for a while because he was inside a car the whole time.

His father hired bodyguards to make sure that he wouldn't go out. Geez, even I could tell how he wanted to come out so badly.

I hope he wasn't that bored though.

"Tell me if something happens, hmm?" Tristan smiled at me. "Sure, I will. But what would even happen?" I chuckled. "Just... take care always. I love you." He kissed my forehead and smiled at me. "Mm... I love you too," I smiled back at him. "I'm going in. I might arrive late today if I stay here any longer," I giggled. I then waved goodbye at him, and he did the same, too.

He had an uneasy look on his face, and that bothered me quite a bit. He's been acting weird ever since we got back from my parents' house. He wouldn't let me leave his condo alone, and he always wants to drive me to wherever I wanted to go. I just stayed home most of the time so he wouldn't have to leave unnecessarily just because of me.

I wanted to ask him what was bothering him and what was making him make that kind of expression, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. My tongue always turns against me whenever I try to. It's like the words I wanted to say was stuck on my throat.

During that time, I had him remove his plastic bottles of water. I told him to just use a pitcher instead of buying bottled water, since it isn't good for the environment.

"Hi, Justin!" Someone greeted me with a smile on their face. I smiled back and said, "Hello."

Who was that? I don't really remember him, but it would be rude if I didn't greet him back.

"How was your holiday?" He asked as he followed me. "It was great, haha," I replied, feeling a bit uneasy that he's acting so close with me.

"Really? That's great. What happened during Christmas? Did something great happen?" He asked. "No, I just spent it with my family. That's all," I replied, facing straight to avoid having eye contact with him. "Really? Do you want to..." His words were cut off when someone put his arm over my shoulders and talked to me. "Sup. Where's your bestie?" Xander said as he stared down at me. "Hey, remove your arm. I haven't seen Daryl since I got here. You're gonna see him later in class, don't you worry," I chuckled. "Nah, I'm asking because I don't wanna see him," Xander laughed.

"Why? Did something happen?" I asked. "Nothing happened. I just didn't want to see him," he said as he faced front.

I looked over beside me to look for the person who was talking to me earlier, but he was already gone.

"Who was that guy earlier? Even from behind I could tell how uncomfortable you were," he said as he finally removed his arm. "You saw that?" I said as I looked up to him. "Duh? Why would I even bother butting in if you looked fine? Are you dumb?" He said as he rolled his eyes.

His mouth really doesn't have a filter. Seeing how he's still as rude as ever made me realize that he never changed at all, haha.

"I was just asking, jerk. Anyway, I didn't know who that was. He suddenly came up to me and started asking me stuff like how I spent my holidays," I answered.

"Be careful of guys like that. He's obviously interested in you. Tell your alpha about it, Jus," he said as we entered the room.

"Oh, Daryl is there. Go sit with him," he said and patted my shoulder before leaving.

That guy was interested in me...? Well, who cares? I have my Tristan, hehe.

I walked towards Daryl and sat next to him. "Hey, I didn't think you'd make it to class today seeing how your dad wouldn't let you leave before," I said as I sat on the chair.

I can't blame his father for being over protective of him, though. Any parent would probably act like that after what happened to Daryl.

"Well, I had some help. Plus, Christian is a professor here, so he probably felt reassured knowing that," he shrugged.

"Right, Christian," I chuckled, remembering how his brother is actually a professor in this university.

We rarely see him on campus, so I kind of forgot about that.

*****

Our classes ended fine. Nothing much happened until...

"Hey, what's buzzing?" He had that stupid expression on his face, the same expression that he always had since way back. "What are you doing here, Lucas? What the hell is up with that 'buzzing'? That sounds so weird. Are you a fucking bee?" Daryl said as he looked at him weirdly.

I bit my lower lip to stop myself from laughing. The two of them... when did they get so close?

"You guys are friends now?" I asked when I finally collected myself. "Yep, we're besties," Lucas winked at me as he put his arm on Daryl's shoulder. "Get your arm off me, asshole," Daryl said as he pushed him.

That's kinda new to me. Daryl doesn't cuss that much, but I've noticed since earlier that he kept cussing around him.

"You haven't answered my question yet. What are you doing here?" Daryl asked again. "Chill, I went to see your brother," he beamed.

"Have fun, then. We're off," Daryl said and grabbed my wrist. Before he could even drag me away, I spotted a car at the parking area. I immediately knew who owns that car, especially with the charismatic and tall man standing next to it.

He waved his hand when he saw that I finally noticed him, so I waved back.

"Go to your alpha," Daryl said as he let go of my wrist. I faced him and asked, "What about you?" Lucas pulled him and put his arm around his shoulder again. "He's gonna hang out with me," he smiled. "That's what he said," Daryl shrugged.

He may act so annoyed around Lucas, but I can tell that he's comfortable around him.

"Okay, have fun and take care!" I said and waved goodbye as I jogged my way to Tristan.

"Hey, darling..." He welcomed me with a warm hug. "Why did you wait for me outside? You should have waited inside your car. It's still snowing, you know?" I said as I broke off from the hug.

"I didn't wait that long. Don't worry," he smiled at me.

He's saying that, but his cheeks, ears, and nose are so red. He looks so cold.

"Let's go in," I smiled at him. He opened the door for me and had me go in first before turning around and getting inside the driver's seat.

"You didn't really have to pick me up. I thought that maybe if you do this everyday, you won't be able to get any work done," I said as soon as he got in. "Please don't scold me," he pouted as he looked at me with his puppu eyes.

Damn it. How could I ever resist him? He looks like a puppy. He's way too cute, argh!

I avoided his gaze and cleared my throat. "F-Fine..." Gosh, I even stuttered.

When will I ever get used to him? This weren't supposed to be like this when I look back, though. It's as if the situation suddenly turned around. He's the one who kept getting embarrassed and flustered before. Why am I the one being like that now?

He chuckled, a sexy one at that. "How was your day, darling?" He asked. I turned my head to face him and saw that he was smiling at me. He had the usual gentle look on his face, but despite that, I could still see how he actually feels. I really want to ask him what's going on with him, but I can't bring myself to. It seems to me that he still has his walls up around me. With that, I realized that I barely know anything about him.

Even though I've known him for quite a while, I still barely know anything about him. I only know a few things about him like his age, his job, his siblings and cousins, and that's it. That's all I know.

It makes me feel terrible knowing that I don't even know what his favorite food is, his favorite color, movie, song, and other things that couples usually know about their significant other.

He's never even mentioned anything about his family. Haaa...

Even with all these thoughrs running through my head right now, I still managed to compose myself and look calm on the outside.

"It was okay. Nothing really happened except from the thing earlier after you dropped me off. Xander told me to tell you this, too. There was this guy who suddenly kept talking to me, and Xander said that that guy might be interested in me. That's just about it," I shrugged after giving a brief explanation of what happened earlier today.

"What?"
