《Gumtree Loneliness》★ Unexpected ★

Advertisement

Felicia didn't see the new guy last night at supper time - maybe his meal was brought to him or something, by Sandra.

It's morning and her suitcase is packed. She feels upset knowing that some rich bloke gets her room.

Felicia looks around at her room - she really did like this space. The window, the double bed and the old, but well maintained bathroom is something she'll miss.

Suddenly the door flies open and standing before Felicia is indeed a handsome guy. His hair is black, with tanned skin and his eyes are green with tints of brown in them. Felicia's mouth opens with shock - was she now in the presence of a god!? A sexy one! Felicia couldn't help it her eyes trails from his toes up to his face and suddenly she sees a smirk on his face.

"Well, Hello there," says the 'god'.

"Umm - Hi, I was just leaving," replies Felicia while looking away with a blushed face.

"But why, isn't this your room?"

"Yeah, well it was. It's now yours," Felicia says sadly.

"No, no, no it's still your room. We will be roommates," he says with eager. "Didn't Sandra tell you?"

"She did, but I thought she wanted me gone!"

"Well you misunderstood."

"My name is Marcus by the way."

"And I'm Felicia," she announces as she gives Marcus a nod.

"But-but there is only one bed!?" Exclaims Felicia, as Marcus closes the door.

"Yeah, it's big enough bed for two..."

"Sandra did' want me gone didn't she? I mean why, would you want to share a bed with me. A stranger," explains Felicia with a few fake giggles.

"Well, she told me there was a maid living in this room and that it was my decision to share a room with you or not. I would rather share - a girl as young as you shouldn't be on the streets."

"That's kind, but I don't want to intrude your privacy," replies Felicia with honesty.

In the meantime, Jaffa has just came back from a hike. As he heads to his room, he immediately tunes into Felicia's thoughts, as he knows she'll be in her own room.

Wow this guy is so sexy. The way his black hair flows to his lovely green-brownish eyes and how the sun makes his skin have a glow to it. Golly-golly, but he doesn't compare to-

Jaffa stops listening to her thoughts. He is jealous and feeling shock. From reading her thoughts for the past couple of weeks, Felicia has never had this type of thinking. Jaffa does recall Felicia thinking about him in a similar way, but nothing like this.

"Well, this is human," Jaffa whispers to himself.

On Corba, attraction took a while. As in, one of the Corban's rules is to really understand the person, before letting emotions draw you in. The reason for this is that Corbans are only entitled to one mate - either male or female. Jaffa didn't really find his ideal girl on Corba, although he has had mere attraction. Since knowing Felicia, Jaffa has to tame his emotions - he is well really intrigued by her, but if he lets his feelings get out of hand, he may do something he'll regret. Choosing her as his mate. As well as breaking the major rule; 'no human can know about Corba.' The Corban government would be absolutely angry if this rule was broken.

Jaffa decides to tune into the guy's thoughts - the one that Felicia was attracted to. But his radar doesn't work on this lad. Jaffa tries again - still not working. He suddenly feels his temper eager to explode, due to the jealousy that was obtained by Felicia's thoughts. Jaffa kicks his door open with a huge amount of force, which causes the walls to shake and bang.

Marcus immediately opens his room door to see what's going on. Suddenly he comes face to face with Jaffa. His brother. Jaffa now understood why the mind reading didn't work - it doesn't work on family members.

Jaffa is now feeling anger towards his brother.

"Hello, why did you bang your door open?" Marcus asks politely.

"Why are you here, brother?" Jaffa spats back, without acknowledging Marcus's politeness.

"I-"

"What's going on out here?" Felicia queries interrupting Marcus's reply to Jaffa.

"James, are you okay?" Felicia rushes up to him and is about to take Jaffa's hand.

Jaffa pushes her hand away, goes inside his room and slams the door shut.

"So can you tell me what just happened?" Felicia questions, turning her attention to Marcus.

"He's my brother," Marcus simply says.

"Really?"

"Yes and I have come to stay at this hostel as I am also studying."

"So did the bang come from James?" Felicia asks without listening to Marcus's last comment.

"Yes," Marcus replies. "Well I would like to go back into our room and unpack my things."

"Okay, but about the sleeping arrangements..." Felicia starts to say, following Marcus into the room.

Felicia feels really nervous about sharing a room with a handsome guy like Marcus. She hasn't had much experience with guys and never has she slept in a bed with one. Felicia also wants her own privacy, but now that she has a roommate she may not even get any.

"What about it?" Marcus questions, as he takes some clothes out of his suitcase.

"There's a spare single bed in the cleaners room. I'll get it and use it. I am a maid, so Sandra won't really mind."

"Okay, but if it gets uncomfortable you can always sleep in this comfy bed with me!" Marcus smirks.
