I woke up to my alarm that morning that I didn't recall setting but then remembered that I have a preset alarm for college morning to wake up. I yawned before getting a shower as I knew my roommates would want all the details of my date. As I stood there in the warm water and started to clean myself for the day..I couldn't deny that I imagined Aleksander here with me. The idea of it snapped me back to reality as I hurried to get myself clean and then dressed. I made sure my homework was done which it was and then packed everything in my bag.
When I walked out to get something to eat Nadia and Marie were there eating. "Oh you're awake..how did the date go? Did he treat you right? Was there a kiss good night?" Nadia asked as we all knew Nadia was a bit more of a romantic than I was. "It went fine..after we got away from his mother." Amira said as I looked at them seeing their shocked faces. "He took you to meet his mother already.." Marie said as I grabbed something quick. "He didn't have a choice..she insisted to meet me. I have to choose between Aleksander and Billy to marry by the promise my grandmother made." I said as I put a piece of toast in my mouth.
"And was there a good night kiss?" Marie asked as I blushed slightly. It was on accident that our lips met last night but in that moment I hadn't even cared. "Sort of..accidentally" I said as I knew I'd been distracted yet he had taken advantage of the situation and I hadn't stopped him. "I need to go we can talk about this later." I said
I ran to get to class as I was able to get in like it was no problem and slide in, everyone was coming in when Nico showed up. Nico walked over and hugged me "so how did your date go?" He asked as I nod. "It went well, he showed me a good time." I said as Andrew soon came in and my smile faded. "Well Silina, I bet I could show you a better time than the son of the Godmother." Andrew said as I was about to say something when Billy walked in. I wondered where Aleksander was but Billy walked over and handed me a note. "My brother asked me to give you this, he's running a little late." Billy said as I took it and then Billy took my hand and kissed the top of it. "Would you honor me with a chance to show you a better time than Aleksander?" Billy asked
I was shocked because this mean their mother had put brother against brother with the way things were. "I wouldn't mind..but I have to work tonight so it'll have to be another night." I said as Billy's expression was easy to read. He didn't seem happy that last night I had time for his brother and tonight I didn't for him. Yet he remained calm "No worries Sweetheart I'll just use the time to plan a great night. But I'll see you at your job tonight." He said before he left.
Oi..twins..manipulating twins. I thought
Still I looked at the note Billy gave from Aleksander.
Amira,
I had a nice time last night..my apologies if things moved fast with everything that happened. I had no intention to make you uncomfortable if that was what happened. I'll be in class late mother called me away to do something. If Andrew bothers you I'll deal with him soon.
-Aleksander
I smiled and soon Aleksander walked in a few minutes after the bell and he had a note to which the teacher accepted before he took his seat. I knew he had the same schedule as me so we talked a bit.
During the trips to class we walked together and Andrew stopped infront of us. "This isn't funny. You're dating him now after one date?" Andrew asked as I knew that wasn't what was going on but Andrew didn't need to know that. "I can date whoever I want. He knows how to show a girl a good time so yeah." I said
Aleksander seemed to look at me curiously but I knew that I didn't have a choice. It was him or Billy and this competition on who would get me first between the twins did not help. When we walked forward I heard him ask "is this because of the kiss or because of what happened with my mother?" I knew the truth it was a bit of both. "Kind of...I have to work tonight at the bar. You'll come, right?" I asked as he smirked at me. "Sure. Though Billy wants his turn to impress you." Aleksander said as I nod. "He talked with me and I told him I'd be at work tonight." I answered
The day seemed like it went by fast as everyone noticed I walled with him. Lunch time he bought us lunch so we could enjoy which I didn't mind. I knew the area well enough and I was content with him. I was comfortable with him..and that was concerning.
Will I choose Aleksander over Billy? I do feel a connection with him and he's mindful of how to handle things around me. I thought
After lunch things went by soon and I had to go home and get ready. I was going to drive myself when I walked out and seen Aleksander waiting for me. I went over to him and he rolled his window down. "Get in. It's too dangerous to walk." He said as I shrugged but got in. He drove me there and we didn't say anything but my friends had already gone ahead to get the bar ready. So when we arrived we had it all ready.
