Secret Love

Chapter 8

Arriving at his dorm, Levi unlocked the door and entered his shared room; Dylan greeted him with a cheerful smile as he closed the door behind him softly.

"Your back. Did you get managed to get something to eat?" Asked Dylan twirling around in his chair to see Levi walking in

"Huh ahh Yeah, I did."

Dylan opened his mouth to reply, but the buzz of his phone indicated an incoming call; picking up his phone, Dylan mouth the word "mum" before turning back around towards his desk, leaving Levi to his own devices.

Seeing that his roommate was rather occupied, Levi made his to his room and sat on the bed, replaying the events that had happened earlier; questions after questions swirled around in Levi's head, questions that needed answers. 

But no matter how hard Levi tried to come up with possible answers for his question, everything did not make sense, making him go back to where he started. Feeling a headache forming, Levi sigh and got off from his bed. 

Grabbing his bag, Levi took out his notes and placed them on his desk, planning to revise them before tomorrows lesson. Putting the matter involving Dante aside.

As usual, Levi was one of the first to arrive, which made it easier for him to pick a spot that would be furthest from other students but close enough for him to see the work presented by the professor. 

As Levi waited for everyone to arrive, including the professor, Levi looked out the window and was lost in thoughts about the scenery in front of him beautiful, luscious green forest; stretch out far across the vast land of the campus, remembering the first time he entered the forest, Levi felt at peace, a place where he could be himself without the distraction of people.

A small smile made its way on Levi's face when he had remembered the mall, white rabbit that had shared breakfast with him; feeling the urged to be back inside the forest Levi could not help but feel excited.

Just as Levi had finished reminiscing about his time in the forest, warm lips found their way to his cheeks, making him stunned before turning his head to look at the culprit; sure enough, a looming body stood beside Levi's desk, acting as a barricade between him and the students that had started filing in. 

"This is your punishment for leaving me all alone yesterday," said Dante in a cold voice

Sensing the coldness from the other male, Levi did not speak but sent him a death glare in hopes that the other person understood his meaning, but the minute Dante pulled the chair beside him out, Levi quickly pointed out his thoughts.

"There are a lot of seats left; why are you sitting beside me."

Dante looked around the room and saw only half of the seats had been taken by students who had just came in; turning his head back towards Levi, Dante replied.

"Nope, there are no seats left. Guess I'll sit here." 

Letting out a silent sigh Levi moved his bag while he grumbled under his breath.

Throughout the lecture, Levi found to very hard to concentrate; he felt like half of his face had gone numb due to the intense stare it was getting from the person beside him; turning his heads towards Dante, Levi wanted to know what the guys' problem was but was faced with a Dilemma.

As soon as their eyes met, Levi entered a trance like state; once his eyes were locked, he was captivated, by Dante's eyes that were cold and sharp drawing him in, eyes that would make one question their existence in the presence of this man, eyes that hold all the secrets of the world.

It wasn't until the voice of the professor announcing the end of today's lessons did Levi focus his attention to the front of the room, one by one, students began packing their bays slowing leaving the room, Levi closed his book and proceeded to get up when a strong firm grip grabbed onto this slim wrists.

"Let's eat together," asked Dante

Without turning to look at Dante, Levi replied

"No, I can't. I have something to do ill leave first," said Levi in the hope that Dante will let go of his wrist. 

A good minute pass Dante still held on to Levi's wrists, making him slightly angry.

"Please let go of my wrists," said Levi looking around the now empty room before his eyes landed on Dante's cold ones

"Are you upset with me, is that it?" asked Dante getting up from his seat to stand directly in front of Levi, blocking his exit.

"No, I'm not angry. I have something important to do, is all."

"If that's the case, then I'll pick you up later for dinner."

"No, I don't want to go," said Levi, successfully prying his wrists free from Dante's death grip while sidestepping around the taller male to escape.
