A Project Together

"Ako na." Sambit ko kay Hunter na nakatitig sakin.

"Anong 'ako na'?" Nagtatakang tanong nito habang naka-upo sa bench. Hinila na lang niya ako basta dito nang matapos ang klase namin. Hindi na nga ako nakapag-paalam kay Anika.

"Ako na bahalang gumawa ng project natin."

"Para san pang partner tayo kung ikaw lang gagawa?"

"Basta ako na." Pamimilit ko.

Ang totoo niyan, ayoko lang na mapag-isa kasama si Hunter. Because I can't concentrate with him staring at me like he's a predator and I'm the prey.

Bakit ba kasi nag volunteer pa siya eh.

"No. We will do it together." He stated firmly that I cannot disagree.

He grabbed my hands and I felt tingles again. Hinila niya ako papunta sa parking lot malapit sa kotse nito kung nasaan sina Jake at Aspen.

"We've been waiting for you." Aspen spoke seriously. I don't know what's with this guy and he's always serious.

"Ang tagal niyo naman. Kanina pa kami naghihintay." Bored na sambit ni Jake at sumakay na sa loob ng sasakyan.

"San nanaman tayo pupunta?" Tanong ko kay Hunter.

"Home." Hunter answered and opened the door of his car for me.

"Home?!" I asked annoyed at his short answer.

"We're going to my house."

"To your house? Bakit naman ako sasama?" Hindi ko nalang pnansin yung sinabi niya. Bahay talaga niya? Hindi ba pwedeng bahay ng parents niya? Baka naman sa kanya talaga.

"Doon natin gagawin yung project."

"Ayoko ngang sumama. Baka kung saan niyo pa ako dalhin."

"Kyra, please get in. I'm so hungry. I really want to go home." Jake said beside Aspen.

Napaisip na rin ako. Hindi naman pwede sa bahay dahil andun si mama. Sabunutan pa ko nun pag nag uwi ako ng mga lalaki.

"Fine." Sagot ko. Tutal maaga pa naman.

I sat beside the driver's seat and Hunter grinned closing the door.

Hunter went inside and sat next to me and started the engine of his car. I looked at him curious, because he didn't start driving.

"What's wrong? Bakit hindi ka pa mag drive?" Tanong ko.

"You forgot to wear your seatbelt again." He said and leaned closer and put on the seatbelt around me. I felt him sniff before removing his head away from my neck.

Why does he always sniff my neck and then his eyes will change colors? Too much weirdness.

"Alpha, contain yourself." Aspen warned Hunter. Alpha? Why did he call him Alpha?

"I know. You don't have to tell me." Sagot ni Hunter at nag start nang mag drive. Nilingon ko si Jake sa likod para tanungin siya kung anong nangyari pero nagkibit-balikat lang siya.

After a few minutes, a big house came into view. Honestly, its not a house but a mansion. Hunter parked the house outside.

"You live in the middle of the woods?!" I asked shocked. The whole place is surrounded with a lot of trees. I think its the woods at the end of the village.

"Yes. Welcome to our home! You'll be living here soon." Jake welcomed, spreading his hands in the air.

"As if! That won't happen Jake." Sagot ko.
