Accidental Roommates (Inspired by Red, White & Royal Blue)

CERTAINTY (Alex's POV)

Alex’s POV

  “Are you sure you dropped your phone in the storage room?” I asked Henry while we’re walking in a hurry to go the storage room to look for his phone.

  “Y-yeah.” Henry said. “I think so.” Then he added.

  I stopped walking and turned to him. “You.. think so?” I repeated with raised brows. “So you’re not sure?”

  “W-well, uh..” It’s very obvious from his look that he’s really unsure. “I was.. I was very upset earlier and I.. didn’t notice immediately that I didn’t have my phone with me until I was.. already in my room.”

  I sighed loudly, then nodded my head. “Okay. Let’s just find your phone before anyone else sees it.” I said then we continue walking. “I just hope it’s not yet locked.” I meant the storage room.

  “It’s still open.” Henry exclaimed while smiling when he tried to open the door and it opened.

We sneaked inside secretly.

Since we cannot open the lights, afraid that someone might caught us, I just used my phone as light while we’re looking for his phone.

  “What happened here?” Henry asked wondering when he saw the place was a complete mess.

  “I think there was a hurricane here a while ago.” I said while trying to look very serious.

  “Oh?” Henry said while nodding his head. “Maybe that was also the one that wreaked havoc in my room earlier.” Then he added while laughing.

  I laughed, too. “Disaster.” I said.

  He nodded. “A complete disaster.” Then he said while still laughing.

  I just shook my head. “Come on, let’s just go start finding your phone so that we can go back immediately.” Then I told him. “We still have an unfinished business in your room.”

He laughed sarcastically at that.

  “Why are you laughing?” I asked him teasingly. “What I meant to say is.. cleaning your room. We haven’t cleaned your room yet, did we?” Then I smiled widely.

  He stared at me and, “Oh, yeah.” He said while nodding his head, then he smacked his lips, breathes deeply and said, “But you don’t have to worry about it. I can do it by myself. I won’t let you finish.” He emphasized the last sentence while shaking his head, then he stepped away from me.

I suddenly felt like that it was a threat and, holy fuck, I’m threatened.
