His Mini Bear

CHAPTER- 71

Iris POV:

The class groaned happily when the teacher finally left. 

For the past 2 hours, the teacher has not stopped teaching. 

I looked at the time and saw it was 4 in the evening.

I am addicted to Ace.

Especially the things he do.

I didn't know I can be this dirty too.

"Is something going on between you and Edrick?" Ali asked as she stood in front of my desk. 

"What! No!" I blurted out in surprise. 

"Then why is he talking to you more and not to me? " She said, bluntly.

God, I could never be this confident to ask this type of question. Even to a friend. 

I shrugged. 

Because he's Elijah, not Edrick. 

I stood and left the class in a hurry. 

I told her a lie that "I want to poop".

Such a disgusting lie. 

My eyes wandered around the classroom, sneakily. 

Student's were chattering and laughing. 

God, where is he?

My heartbeat rose when I saw his striking eyes on me already. 

I waved, offering a nonchalant smile and motioned him with my fingers to come outside. 

I released a deep breath and practiced the lines in my head before speaking. 

"Hey" I said, fishing my palms. 

"What happened?" Elijah asked, towering over me. 

He's freaking tall. 

Maybe I am short. Too short. 

"I want your help" I said, anxiously. 

"You know Ali, the girl who asked you.. " I stopped as I saw him nodding his head, sighing. 

"Tell her NO" He said and went inside the classroom. 

No! Nope. She will cry bawling her eyes out. 

She's obsessed with Edrick ever since he started to talk to her often. 

Wait a minute… does it mean Elijah came here as Edrick often and I figured it out everything late? 

"Let's go," He said. 

His bag hung on his shoulder loosely as we walked towards I don't know. 

"But she likes Erick," I said. 

"Darling, he's a fuckboy, she's a good kid, tell her to find someone else" He said, disappointed. 

Kid? Is he in his 30's?

"What's your age? " I asked, raising my eyebrows. 

"Elijah Thomas. In upcoming days I will be 20 years old. Favorites–black color, reading books, music and being alone" He said as he sat down in the garden. 

It was a chilly day but the sun rays helped us to keep us warm. 

"Now, friends" He extended his hand towards me. 

"Uh.. Yeah" I smiled and shook his hand. 

"How come you completed your college earlier than your brother? '' I asked, adjusting my dress as I sat down beside him.
