Enemies to Lovers : HackSant

5

Hi guys, chapter 5 is finally here! Although I took so long in writing this, I did have time to make it longer than expected. I hope you guys enjoy!

Santa arrived at his dorm and opened the door to see his roommate, Joe, sitting on the couch, watching television. Santa sighed as he walked towards the couch, sitting right next to Joe. "Oh, hey Santa, what's up?" Joe said as Santa sat down right next to him, "Ughh.." Santa groaned, "I'm just a tad bit tired, that's all.." Joe looked at Santa worryingly, "Maybe you should take a nap," Joe suggested, Santa looked at him.

"No, maybe later, I have to work on my science project right now.." "Awe, well, sucks to be you I guess? Who's you partner?" Santa awoke from his tiredness once he said that. 'Wait, has he not heard the news? Oh, what a relief!' Santa thought as he came up with a excuse. "It's..uh.." 'Shit!' Santa thought, "Who?..Or is it too embarrassing for you to tell me?" Joe smirked as he said that. "No Joe, it's not embarrassing, it's just..weird.."

"Come on! Tell me please! I promise not to tell anyone about it!" Joe said, in reality, he just wanted to make fun of Santa. "*sigh* You promise?" Santa said, growling in the process. He really didn't want to tell Joe, but 'Secrets can't be hidden forever, can they..?' Santa thought as he sighed, Joe gave him puppy dog eyes. Santa looked at him, "Will you stop that!?" He said angerly, "Not until you tell me!" Joe said back.

Santa rolled his eyes at him, "How do I know that I can turst you Joe..How do I know you won't go around and tell everybody about this?" Santa smirked as he looked at Joe, still looking at Santa with puppy eyes. He stopped after Santa had asked that question, he was stumped. "I..uh.." Joe stumbled with his words, he had his ways of getting secrets every easily, but this had never happened to him.

"Exactly, you have no way of showing any type of trust to me, so, tell me Joe, why should I tell you one of my secrets if I can't even trust you? Hm?" Santa said as he got up, "Now, if you excuse me, I aut to have a talk with my father about something. See you later, Joe." Santa said as he walked towards the dorm door and left, leaving Joe a tad bit disappointed in himself.

Joe then smirked, 'Heh, I already know your secret Santa, it's written all over you, but you have another secret that you're hiding, but..I wonder who could've started all of this..' he thought as he continued to watch the Tv. He started to wonder if it was Her, "Hmm.. I mean..could it?" He started to wonder a bit more. "I mean, she did mention something about them.." he said out loud.

"It could be her if I'm not mistaken, I got to ask her tomorrow or.." he looked at his phone, "Now could be a good time, hope she's awake though.." Joe grabbed his phone and started calling her. 'Please, come on..' he thought, 'Pick up, pick it up!' All of sudden, there was a voice on the other line of the phone. "Hello?" Joe started smiling, "Ha! I knew you'd pick up!"

"Nuh uh, your voice is quite different..Anyways, what do you need dear?" "I just needed to talk to you about something.." Joe stumbled, "You're always welcome to talk to me about anything, you know.." She giggled. "What is it that you wanted to tell me?" She said, Joe wondered if he should tell her anything, but he decided to do so.

"Do you have anything to do about the Science Class incident?"

Santa walked down the stairs, thinking about him. 'Ugh, I hate this shit. Why him out of all people!?' He thought as he reached the end of the stairs. 'Couldn't it have been anyone else other than him!? At this point, I'd very much like a 0 on this project if I could.' Santa scoffed, he knew his father wouldn't be happy to see another grade rather than the usual A's he gets.

"He has to know about who it was, no way he doesn't. He always tries to frame it on someone else.." Santa whispered to himself as he made his way into the school. "I hate that about him, he can't take responsibility for something HE did!" Santa was angered as his own father being such a puss, he had always been like this, it hasn't been the first time something like this had happened.

'Thankfully those situations where solved very quickly, I wonder what had gone wrong this time..' he turned the corner and, "There it is.." he said as two tall, brown double doors stood in front of him. Santa knocked on the door, as to not be rude to his own father. "Come in!" A voice yelled from inside, knowing who it was, Santa opened the door to see his father sitting in a desk, writing on some paperwork.

"Hello, dear father." Santa said, "Greetings, son," He grumbled, not looking up from his paperwork. "Father, can I..ask you something? If that's okay with you of course!" Santa said, looking at his father. "Spit it out boy, I don't got all day.." His father spat out, Santa started to rethink his options on what he could do, but he decided it wouldn't hurt to ask his father this.

'Well,' Santa thought, 'here goes nothing..' "Father, I was just wondering if I could change partners for the science project..or do it by myself at the least..if it's okay with you, course.." Santa smiled slightly. His father sighed, he knew that Santa would ask this one day, 'It had to come eventually..' he thought as he finished writing on the paper. "Well, Father?" Santa asked nervously.

Santa's father sighed, he already had the answer to that exact question and it was.."No son." he said, Santa's eyes widened. "What do you mean!? I thought-" Santa started, but his father had cut him off. "Did the teacher not tell you guys that you have to work with your partner in order to get a full grade?" He asked, raising an eyebrow at him. "I-..No father.." Santa said as he looked down.

"Just as I expected..are you here for anything else or are you just here to bother me?" He asked, looking directly at Santa. Santa paused and looked at the whitely polished floor, "Actually, I have another question. It's about me being partners with..Hackula.." he mumbled, "Go ahead, I'm all ears." His father looked at him with a deadly look, waiting for him to speak.

"Are you sure that it wasn't you who put me and him together for this project? If so, then why haven't you changed me with someone else?" He started, "Becuase at this point, you would've changed me, what went wrong this time?" He asked, his father looked the other way. "It's becuase I feel like you're old enough to be fixing your own problems, you shouldn't be running to me every time you have trouble on something.." he said as he started working on his papers again.

Santa was taken back, he turned around and paused. He looked back and saw his father writing things down on the paper he had in front of him at his moment, Santa looked in front of him and opened the door. "Goodbye father," He said walking out of the door, shuting the door behind him. He was angered, he needed to work with Him!? 'There's no way I'm working with him! I need to come up with something..' he thought, then it hit him. 'His secret! That's it!' He thought as he walked out of the school grounds.

'Maybe if I can gain his trust, then he'll tell me,' Santa thought as he smirked, 'Maybe this project can help me with that.'
