《Different》Chapter 3

Emma's POV
Why did I agree to this. It's not like I had much of a choice but still.
What if he's a murderer?
Or a rapist?
Oh no.
It's fine. I just have to chill.
"After you," he smirks and opens the door to his apartment.
I walk in slowly.
"That's one big apartment."
"I know right!" He says excitedly, like a child that finally got their candy.
He leads me to his bedroom, "you'll sleep here tonight," he smiles. Ha ha, you really thought I'll sleep with you huh? Well you thought wrong.
"I won't sleep with you," I say to him.
"Why not?" He pouts, looking down at his feet. You aren't gonna get me to have sex with you Luke. Not so fast.
"What kind of a question is that?" I ask him, clearly confused.
"Fine. There's a guest bedroom there," he points to the room across the hall, " you can sleep there," he scoffs, rolling his eyes. Grumpy much?
I walk to the bedroom door and open it but when I turn around to check if he's still standing there, he's gone. Thank god. At least he'll let me sleep tonight.
I lay on the bed and quickly fall asleep.
Luke's POV
This is going to be harder than I thought.
After she agreed to sleeping at my place, I was sure she'll want to sleep with me.
Oh well. Here goes another lonely night.
...
Why the fuck is my alarm clock ringing? It's fucking saturday. Now I'll be in a bad mood.
I throw it on the floor and then I remember that she's here.
Shit.
What if I woke her up?
I get out of bed, take a cold shower and brush my teeth. I still haven't bought a new toothpaste.
When I get to the kitchen she's already there. Drinking coffee. She looks so calm and beautiful. And most importantly, sexy. She's still in her dress. I'll need her to wear it more. Actually no. I don't want other guys looking at her.
She looks at me and her pupils dilate.
Why is she looking at me like that?
I look down and I see myself wearing nothing but a towel, that's tied around my waist.
I take that to my advantage and step closer to her, causing her to back up, hitting the counter.
"Good morning Em," I look at her and smile.
I walk closer, so I can feel her warm breath on my skin. The smell of coffee. I grab Em by her waist and pull myself to her, so our bodies are touching.
"Did you sleep well?" I smirk and she nods quickly. She's nervous and that turns me on even more. I just hope my boner won't be too big, because the towel might fall off.
"I'm bored, you know," I lean, whispering into her ear.
I can feel her body tensing and her heart racing. I brush my lips by her ear and look down at what shes wearing.
Fuck her dress is so hot.
I grab her and put her on the counter, leaning in to kiss her but she moves away. She slowly sits back to the table and drinks her coffee.

"Not so fast," she smiles. "And go get dressed."
What is happening? This has never happened to me. Every girl wants to fuck me and she's no different. She can't be.
I look at her, clearly surprised but she just keeps on drinking her coffee.
Fuck no. She won't do this.
I grab her and lift her up, pinning her to the wall, holding her wrists.
I try to kiss her but she pushes me away again.
What the fuck?
"I want to go home now," she gives me a death glare and goes to the door.
"Okay, fine. Just let me get dressed," I turn around, cursing under my breath.
Emma's POV
What does he think he is? He's just another asshole with an ego bigger than Mount Everest.
I'm not saying he isn't attractive but still. He can't just do that.
The drive back is quiet and awkward, like it should be. It's not awkward for me because I frankly don't care, but I can see that rejection is something he hasn't experienced before.
"See you later," he winks and drives off.
Ugh. He's so annoying.
When I get to my dorm, Vanessa is sitting there, waiting for me to show up.
"Where have you been young lady?" She sounds like my mom.
"Luke literally didn't let me go home, so I had to sleep at his house," I sigh and she jumps up and stares at me.
"You didn't.."
"No! I'm not like that!" I'm offended that she thinks that way about me. It's probably Luke's charms, she doesn't believe anyone is capable of resisting.
"Okay thank god. Because you know how he is. His dick is bomb I can't say anything about that," I laugh at her, "but you know he's more of a 'fuck her then leave her' type of a guy," she warns me. As if I didn't know that. That surely won't happen to me. He won't have sex with me or lay a finger on me. Ever.
"I know. He tried to, but I didn't let him." I sigh.
"I'm so proud of you!" She squeals, "I know that took a lot of you to say no to him, so I'm gonna buy you some coffee. Let's go!" She pulls me out of the dorm.
...
When we get back the door to the room is opened.
"Did you lock it?" I ask Vanessa.
"I'm pretty sure I did," she confirms and slowly walks into the room.
When she gasps, I quickly get in the room.
The room is a mess.
"We've been robbed!" She yells.
We search the room, to see if anything is missing. Thankfully everything is there.
"Why would someone break into our dorm and not take anything, but would leave a big mess?" I ask her.
"I don't have a clue," she shrugs, starting to clean and I help her.
When we're done, I hear a light knock.
I turn around and he's there. He just can't leave me alone. I'm really regretting I ever ran into him.
"Why are you here?" I hiss. I'm done with his shit.

"Wow Em chill," he raises his hands, "I came here because I missed you," he smirks.
"I-" "well boo-hoo, she didn't miss you, so you can just leave. Goodbye," Vanessa interrupts me and closes the door.
We burst into laughter while Luke is banging on the door. This was priceless.
I open it once more. "What?" I say while laughing. He's looking at me, kind of mad, but the anger disappears quickly.
"I'd be mad at you right now if you wouldn't be so adorable," he laughs and I look at him like he's crazy.
He probably is.
"No really, what do you want?" My face straightens up.
"Well I could name a few things," he looks at my cleavage. I choke on my spit and start coughing.
"Wow there," he laughs and puts his hand on my shoulder. I tense up immediately. What is he doing to me? He just wants sex. I won't give in. But it's so hard. Why?
His dimples.
That's all I need to say.
What am I doing? Snap out of it Emma!
"Don't touch me," I spit.
He puts his hands up and backs away, "okay okay. You're lucky I need to go somewhere," he smirks and leaves.
What was the point of him coming here? He's so strange.
"So what did he want?" I hear Vanessa from behind me.
"I have absolutely no idea," I laugh.
"If I didn't know him better I'd say he has a little crush," she teases. Really Vanessa? This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
"Shut up! Even if he did, I don't like him one bit," I mean, I don't like like him, but he's not, there's no denying that.
"Whatever you say Em," she mocks him, making a weird face.
"Stop it!" I whine.
"Okay girl I was joking." She raises her hands up.
We spent the rest of the weekend watching movies, talking and studying.
She told me all about Dylan and how she thinks she likes him. And how good his head game is. I didn't need to know that but okay.
..
My monday starts bad. He's already following me, before I even get to class. Then he makes sure, he sits next to me and no matter what I do, he won't leave me alone.
When school ends I need to go to work at the cafe. Somehow I got rid of him.
When I get to the cafe, Vanessa is already there, waiting for me.
"Hey V," I greet her.
"That's new," she hugs me.
"Well Vanessa is a very long name, so I decided on calling you V," I smile and get to work.
And of course he comes to the cafe. Is he stalking me? I knew he was a murderer.
But he has a girl next to him.
Holding her by her waist.
I felt like something broke inside of me. Why? I don't even know him. I don't even like him. I couldn't possibly have a future with him.
I don't care.
"Hello, what can I get for you?" I ask them, kind of mockingly.
"We'd like two milkshakes," Luke says, looking at her, kissing her on the cheek.
How cute.
"Two milkshakes coming up," I smile and leave, moving my hips even more, while walking.
I can feel his eyes on me. I smile to myself. "What are you smiling about?" V asks me, "isn't your boyfriend on a date with another girl?"
"He isn't my boyfriend!" I say a bit loud. Too loud. He heard me. Shit. He's looking at me, smiling. What a dick.
"Sweetheart you have to take a chill pill," she says to me.
"I'm fine," I say to her and go get the milkshakes for Luke and his slut.
When I bring them their milkshakes, Luke thanks me and she rolls her eyes as she starts sucking on the straw. Bitch.
When I turn around, I see Dean walk in.
I have an idea.
"Oh my god! Hi Dean!" I squeak and wrap my arms around his neck.
This will get Luke jealous.
"Uhh, hi Emma," he smiles and hugs me back.
I turn around and see him looking angrily at us. Good.
"How are you?" I ask Dean, flirtatiously playing with a lock of my hair.
"I'm very good right now," he smirks, "and you sweetheart?"
"Oh I am great!" I look at Luke, who's still staring at us, looking as if he'll jump Dean any second.
"Listen, I wanted to ask you something," Dean says shyly and looks at his feet. "What are you doing later this evening?" He says, looking into my eyes.
"Uh nothing much. Why?" I smile at him.
"Well I was wondering if you'd like to go-"
"She has plans," I turn around and Luke is standing there, clenching his fists.
"I think she can answer for herself," Dean steps closer to Luke. Oh no. This wasn't in my plan.
"Oh don't you fucking worry. I can answer for her."
"Actually I'd love to go with you Dean," I smile at him and give Luke a smirk.
"Uh no. You have plans with me." Luke says, glaring at Dean.
"You don't get to decide what I do!" I snap.
"Lukey, what's happening?" I hear an annoying voice.
Great. It's her.
"I don't have time for you right now. You can leave," Luke says to her, still looking at Dean.
Yeah bitch, bounce away.
"You're such a dick!" She slaps Luke and leaves.
"Come on Em, we're leaving," Luke grabs me but I jerk my hand away.
"I think you meant that you're leaving," I say to him.
"Yes I am. And you're coming with me." He grabs me and puts me over his shoulder, carrying me out.
"Let me go!" I say, hitting his back, but he just laughs at me.
"Let's go," he puts me in his car and drives away, before I could do or say anything.
