Lily's POV
Half an hour later Daisy walks into my room and sits down on the bed
"Hey" I greet her
"Hey Lils" she greets me back
"So how are you and mystery boy getting on?"
"You mean Hunter?"
"So that's the name of the arsehole"
"That's not nice, he helped us"
"Doesn't make him any less of an arsehole" she replys laughing
I then remembered that I said I would help her unpack her things from her car so I ask
"Do you want me to help bringing your stuff up?"
"Yes please"
I get off my bed. And I check to make sure I have my phone and the apartment keys
As we leaving the apartment Hunter came out from his bedroom looked at both of us and asked
"Where are you going?" he asked standing near the kitchen counter
"Im helping Daisy bring her things up"
He gives me the short reply "ok" and walks down towards his bedroom
Daisy and I walk down the stairs and down towards her car
"He's a little nicer to you"
"Yeah he is maybe whatever you said to him got him to be nicer" I reply laughing
Me and Daisy begin to go up and down the stairs to drop things off at her room and back down to her car to get more things
The 5th time I drop a box off at her room I meet her roomate Jack who was very kind and started to help us bring up the heavier boxes
Jack is similar to Hunter as both boy are quite tall and intimidating but you can tell the Jack is less serious than Hunter. Jack has no visible Tattoos and is dressed very casually
After all the boxes were in her room she asked "can you help me put my things away"
"Yeah sure"
So for the next hour we put away her things away and make her room look like her room at home
Once we finished unpacking all her things I left her room to go back to mine
Once I closed the door Hunter came out his room and asked "do you want to order something for dinner?"
"Yeah what would you like to get"
"I'll let you choose"
"Do you like Chinese?" I ask him
"Yeah, there's a place down the street I can go to"
"Ok let me go get money to pay for it"
"Its ok keep it"
"Are you sure, I'll pay you back"
"There's no need Lily"
"Ok can you get me noodles and prawns crackers please?"
"Yeah sure, see you in a bit"
~ Hunter's POV
I walk out the apartment and down towards the Chinese takeaway. As I place mine and Lily's order. I can't help but feel protective of her when she wasn't back because she was helping her friend put her stuff away I couldn't feel but wanting to be selfish and to have time to get to know her. But then again she might not want to be around me if I'm so much of an arsehole
I feel like the way I treated her wasn't what she deserved and I feel bad about it. Even her defending me to her friend for calling me an arsehole. Eventhough its funny and true and I hate if that is how she feels about me
It's just when I went to get my schedule and keys the front desk women told me how Lily wanted her roomate that was me to switch with her friend so they could be Roomates
I wanted to act like I didn't care but I wanted to be an arsehole so she would be glad I moved out but once I meet Lily I didn't want to be moved rooms. I wanted to get to know this shy and gorgeous girl and not act like a dick towards her just because she wanted to be Roomates with her friend
I'm pulled out of my thoughts once my order number was called I thanked the employee and began to walk back to the apartment
As I enter the apartment and I saw how Lily has changed into a oversized T-shirt, fluffy socks and her hair was in a messy bun. I couldn't help but think how cute she looked. But I was carrying the food
I walked over to the table to see that she set out placemats and cups like we were having dinner
"What drink would you like?" She asked
"Just water please" the word please isn't common for me use and felt weird to say
She walks over to the sink and runs the tap and fills up the glass
"Oh do you mind having tap water" she asks
"No, there's no difference" she looked at me like I was crazy
"Ofcourse there is a difference"
I sake my head at the petty argument we were having about water
We ate our meal and we chatted lightly about random topics until she starts to tidy the plates away and she started to head off to bed
"Thank you for the meal"
"Your welcome Lily"
I walk to my room and lay awake for a hour until I walk over to her room. I was going to walk away when she opens the door and she crashes into my chest
"We keep meeting like this" I say slightly laughing
"Yeah" she replys looking down at the floor and I begin to see her blush
"You ok?" I ask her
"Not really, I'm not used to being away from home"
"Do you want some walm milk?"
"Yeah that would be nice"
She sits on the couch while I'm in the kitchen pouring milk into a cup and placing it in the microwave. After it's done I bring the cup to her and I can see her slowly become more tired
"We should get you to bed" I say to her quietly and she does the most adorable thing while having her eyes closed she reaches her hands up and starts doing grabby hands showing me she wants to be carried
I pick Lily up and hold her in a foetus pose and I carry her to her room and lay her down when she asks me
"Please stay"
"Ofcourse" I move her over and lay down next to her when she wraps her legs around me and cuddles into my side and wispers "Good night Hunter"
"Night Lily"
