Unexpected

Chapter 44.

The class is over and Albert is still missing.

"Why don't you call him?" Sophia asks probably due to my worried expression.

"I sent him a text but he didn't reply." I try to act nonchalant but fail miserably.

"I'm sorry Emily, I really have no idea where he might be.." Sophia says caressing my arm.

"Me neither.." I look at the ground.

My day is being completely hell. I called Albert like three times and sent him two texts. He didn't reply to any of them. I don't want to look needy or be annoying but I'm just worried about him.

I lay my bag in my bed and toss my example of Romeo & Juliet.

After two hours I finally feel my eyelids heavier enough to get some sleep.

I'm awaken by the sunlight perforating my curtains and a odd weight on my legs. What the hell?

I feel an arm around my waist and legs intertwined with mine. I instantly turn to face the person behind me.

"Albert?" What the hell? How even?!

" Hmmm" He mutters with his eyes closed.

"Albert, wake the hell up!" I shake his arm.

"Good Morning, baby.." He says with the raspier voice I've ever heard. His curls are occupying my pillow and his light brown eyes are so beautiful.

"Where were you?!" I ask interrupting my tricky thoughts.

"I'm sorry, Emily, I tried to call you four times last night but you didn't picked up the phone." He says with his eyes still closed.

I instantly check on my phone and I have four missed calls.

"Well, I tried to call you too and texted you but you didn't reply me either.." I say.

"I know, I'm sorry, I'm here now.." He says wrapping his arms tightly around my waist.

"I can see that. How did you enter in my room?"

"Through the window.." He says.

"You entered through the- Are you crazy?!" I'm trying my best to keep my voice lower to not awake my parents.

"I was missing you so much, I couldn't wait to see you."

"So you decide to go throught my window in the middle of the night?! You can be arrested for that!" I almost yell and he chuckles. I feel his chest vibrating against my back making a cheeky smile crept into my lips.

"Why did you skip classes?" I ask ignoring his good mood.

"I was busy." He shrugs.

"Doing what?"

"Nothing for you to worry about."

"Albert, I suggest you to tell me right now what the hell happened to you." I say with a frustrated tone.

"Emily, stop talking about it! I'm here now." He opens his eyes to look at me.

"Don't you trust me?" I ask standing up from the bed.

"Of course I trust you! I just can't tell you." He says and his eyes meet mine.

"Why Albert? I don't understand,"

"Damn it! I'm saying that I can't fucking tell you! Why can't you just accept that?" He says in a louder tone standing up in front of me.

"Why does it have to be a secret?"
