《Theirs》Chapter 12

...

The next day, Tharion and Draco announced a camping trip which will happen this weekend. I was a bit surprised, but Lyla told me these kinds of things happen occasionally.

I avoided Tharion and Draco like the plague, but it was hard when I had to constantly accompany them to their countless meetings. They probably knew I was trying to avoid them because of the thing I did while sleeping, but they acted like nothing happened. Although, Draco did tease me about it and all I could do was mumble a few apologies while blushing and stuttering like a madman.

"Come on Kate. They said they want you to bring them their coffee." Lyla said and pulled me off of my chair.

"But can't I just go grab it and then you take it to them? I really don't want to be alone with them." I whined while struggling.

"No. They asked you, so you're doing it." She said and pushed me into the elevator.

How did we get all the way to here?!

"Ly-"

"Bye Kate." She said with an evil grin and waved at me.

Then the elevator door closed.

Shit. How am I supposed to survive this...

...

I've been standing in front of their door for five minutes already. I'm surprised Lyla still didn't notice.

Maybe I should go and try to convince her one more time. Yeah. Let's do that.

I turned around and was about to go to her, but the door behind me opened and I instantly froze.

"How long do you plan on standing here?" Draco asked in amusement.

Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit...

I slowly turned around and smiled nervously.

"I-I was about to knock." I mumbled quickly.

"Are you sure? You've been standing there for five minutes and were about to walk away." He said with a raised eyebrow.

I groaned internally.

Stupid cameras.

I just smiled shyly and slowly walked into the office after he stepped to the side. I heard the door close behind me and I took a deep breath.

I'm so screwed...

I put their coffee on the small table in front of their desks and then straightened up.

"If there's nothing else you need, I'll be going." I said nervously and turned around to leave.

And I was instantly face to face with a grinning Draco. I knew right away I wouldn't be going out of here any time soon.

Fuck.

I felt a presence behind me and I quickly turned around only to be greeted with Tharion's perfect face. I was panicking enough as it is and he just had to add more fuel to the fire.

"W-what-are-you-doing?" I asked unconsciously and slapped my hand over my mouth once I realized I said it out loud.

"Admiring." Draco said and took a strand of my hair between his fingers.

Then he freaking smelled it.

If my heart wasn't already on the verge of jumping out of my chest, then it sure was now.

Tharion did the same thing which only quickened my heartrate.

I think I'm going to have a heart attack.

Then they let go of my hair and gently smiled at me.

"You can go now Katie. If there's anything we need from you, we'll call you." Draco said and grabbed his coffee.

Tharion nodded and also took his cup. I nodded my head absentmindedly and slowly exited their office.

What the fuck just happened?

...

Today's the camping trip and I'm internally freaking out. I was hoping for a nice and relaxing weekend where Tharion and Draco couldn't mess with my heart, but the odds weren't in my favor. I tried to get out of it, but Lyla wouldn't budge.

"Come on Kate. We'll be late." Lyla said from the hallway.

I groaned loudly and grabbed my duffel bag. Sweet torture named Tharion and Draco Lombardi, here I come. If I don't develop a heart disease because of them, then I have a hell of a strong heart.

And then there's this weird feeling that's been bugging me ever since I woke up this morning. Like it's warning me something big is going to happen on this trip.

...

Three buses were waiting for us when we arrived at the station.

"I bet there would've been four if all employees came." Lyla chuckled.

I grinned a little because that's true.

"Hello my beautiful ladies." Someone said from behind us.

Then he swung his arms around our shoulders. I looked at the person, preparing to give him a piece of my mind for jumping on us like this, but my heart dropped to my stomach in a second once I saw who it was.

Draco fucking Lombardi.

In causal clothes.

God, take me now.

"Hello!" Lyla said cheerfully.

"H-hi." I mumbled quickly.

"Morning." Someone said on my other side.

I jumped and slowly looked at the person with a very familiar voice.

Yup. I was right.

Tharion Lombardi was walking beside me in all his casual glory too.

These men will be the end of me.

I don't know why I'm so attracted to them. We barely know each other. I've been wondering about this for some time now. Like, is this normal? Can a girl feel like this about a guy she just met or is it just me? They barely do or say anything and here I am, about to have a heart attack just because of their existence. Don't even get me started on their flawless voices.

"Kate?" Lyla said, snapping me back to reality.

"Hm?"

"I asked if you can give me some of that chocolate." She said.

I looked at her in confusion and then looked at my hands. And sure enough, I was holding an open bar of chocolate.

The fuck?

I looked around me and saw we were already inside the bus.

What?!

"When did we get in here?" I asked her as I gave her the chocolate.

"About fifteen minutes ago." She said and immediately stuffed her face with chocolate.

I've been absentminded for that long?!

Then the bus started to move.

This is not normal. I'm definitely going for a checkup after this trip.

...

I was looking out the window when a hand was waved in front of my face. I turned to look at the owner of the hand and sure enough, it was a grinning Draco.

Yup. You guessed it. He and Tharion were sitting in front of Lyla and I.

"Yes?" I said after removing one of the earphones from my ear.

"You want some?" He asked, waving a bag of chips in front of me.

"I'm good. Thank you." I mumbled and went back to listening music.

Yes. I was trying to interact with them as less as possible. And no. It was not going well. Why? Because Draco would ask me all kinds of stupid questions every five seconds. Even Tharion jumped in a few times.

So my mission of ignoring them was failing miserably. Then again, how could I ignore them when Draco acted like a curious little kid and Tharion was like that cute and shy kid everyone liked.

You just can't ignore them.

I looked out the window and was lost in my thoughts within seconds.

...

Hi guys! (^▽^)/

I'm sorry it was posted so late. I somehow fell asleep. Can you imagine? I actually managed to fall asleep at a decent hour. I couldn't believe it once I woke up and noticed.
