ELLIE'S POV
After changing into my PJs, pumunta na ko sa kusina and when I got there Al already finished half of his bottle.
"You drink too fast." I told him with a pout. He just tilted his head with an "Is there a problem with it?" question plastered accross his face. I just shook my head tsaka kumuha ng beer sa fridge.
"Let me." He said grabbing the beer from my hands as he proceeds to open it. "Thank-- Hey! That's mine!" I yelled. Sino ba naman ang di sisigaw eh ininuman niya na yung bote ko.
"Oh sorry." He said with a mischievous smile saka inabot sa akin yung bote. I just rolled my eyes saka ko kinuha sa kamay niya yung beer ko.
"Apology not accepted." I said before drinking from my bottle.
"Nga pala. Wala ka din bang idea kung sino ang apartmate mo before getting here?" I asked him and he just shook his head.
"What was our moms thinking putting us in the same apartment knowing that we hate each other?" I sighed before taking a sip from my bottle.
Leaning against the kitchen counter, arms crossed, he smirked slightly.
"Hate might be a strong word. More like... intense dislike." His gaze met my eyes, challenging but not entirely unfriendly.
"But yes, our dear mothers seem to have their own plans for us." I sighed.
"Knowing tita and my mom, their plan might be a stupid plan." I said before taking another sip from my bottle.
Raising an eyebrow, Alistair chuckled softly.
"Stupid plan or not, we're stuck with each other for now. Might as well make the most of it." He pushed off the counter and moved towards you, a playful glint in his eyes.
"Who knows? Malay mo mas makilala pa natin ang isa't isa." I stared at him frowning.
"Can you stop that? You're creeping me out!" I said jokingly as i pushed him by his chest. Chuckling softly, Alistair raised his hands na parang sumusuko.
"Alright, alright. No need to get physical."
He took a step back, still wearing a smirk."I was merely pointing out the
obvious. We're roommates now,whether we like it or not. Might as well find some common ground, right?" His eyes held a hint of challenge as he looked at you again."So, tell me. Do you still plan on ignoring me?" He asked. Napaisip din ako.
"Siguro hindi na. Wala na din naman akong choice." I said with a laugh before taking a swig from my bottle.
He took a sip from his own drink, watching you intently over the rim.
"We might actually survive this little arrangement after all. Masyado kaseng malakas trip ng mga nanay natin minsan." He said chuckling.ALISTAIR'S POV
"You drink too fast." Nagulat ako sa biglang pagsulpot Elle sa tabi ko. But what surprised me more is what she was wearing.
She was wearing a white tank top with her tight Calvin Klein shorts which made my eyes stuck on her.
"How can someone be this wreckless? She's with a guy for heaven's sake." I asked myself while staring at her grab her own beer from the fridge.
"Let me." I told her bago ko inagaw ko sa kaniya yung bote. I proceeded to open it and took a sip to tease her.
"Thank-- Hey! That's mine!" She yelled. I just chuckled to her reaction. "God I love teasing this girl." I thought to myself.
After some small talks, she decided to cook something kase daw nagugutom na naman siya. I agreed to help out because i was feeling hungry too since I haven't had dinner yet.
While she was cooking i just stayed beside her leaning against our kutchen vounter. I can't help myself from staring at her.
"Enjoying the view?" She suddenly asked. I look away to hide a creeping blush over my cheeks.
"I'm just checking kung marunong ka ba talagang magluto. And who knows, baka lsunin mo din ako eh." I said taking another sip of my beer. She just rolled her eyes in response.
"She looks hot." Napakamot ako ng batok ko trying to shrug off the thought that just crossed my mind. "What am I even thinking?" I said before chugging the rest of my beer.
