Love Me, My Omega!

JUSTIN'S POINT OF VIEW:

"So, you're telling me that the alpha that brought you into his home was my cousin, Tristan?" Daryl said as he looked at me with a weird look in his eyes. I nodded and smiled awkwardly. "Oh my god, Justin..." He sighed as he put his palms against his face. My eyebrows furrowed because of his reaction. "Why? Is there something wrong?" I asked. He removed his hands from his face and said, "Tristan has a long string of past partners. He could never settle down. Even though he's my cousin, I can't trust him that much when it comes to dating."

He's had a lot of partners before...? It didn't seem like it. Well, in terms of attractiveness, he's definitely a looker but the way he acted with me earlier today didn't look like he's had a lot of experience in dating.

"R-Really?" Oh god, I stuttered. But... "Is that true?" He bit his lower lip and sighed as if he was hesitating to answer me. "Yes. Yes, it's true," he said and sighed again.

We were quiet for a while. Daryl clasped my hands and said, "Listen, I don't want you to get hurt. Know that whatever happens, I will always be here for you. But don't forget that I warned you about Tristan. Even if he's my cousin, I can't help but think negatively of him when it comes to this." I just stared at him for a while, and after a few seconds, I smiled. "Thank you."

As we ate breakfast, several thoughts about Tristan were running on my mind.

What if he was just toying with me? Well, I'm not exactly attached to him, but if he's just toying with me, then I guess I have to cut ties with him. I don't like people playing with my feelings.

But maybe I'm just jumping into conclusions about him. I don't even know for sure if he actually likes me. I'm just assuming that he does. Plus, I barely know anything about him. He knows some things about me, but I don't really know him. All I know is his name and that he's Troy's brother and Daryl's cousin.

Should I ask him about himself? Maybe he might find it offensive and he may feel like I'm being too nosy. Should I just wait for him to open up about himself? But even if I do wait, is there really a possibility that he'd tell me? What if he's actually very secretive that even if he gets comfortable around me, he still wouldn't tell me a thing about him?

I think I'm over thinking things a lot. I barely know the guy, yet here I am, trying to figure him out.

"Hey, are you alright?" Daryl said as he looked at me with eyes filled with worry. Oh... I must have spaced out in the middle of the meal. Haaa... "Yes, I'm fine," I said and smiled. I continued eating, and when we finished, Daryl immediately left for class.

I don't have a class right now since our professor is overseas, so I'm staying here until my next class. Terrence and Troy have already left before we even had our breakfast, so it's just me and the maids here.

While spacing out in my room, I suddenly remembered the break in last time. Was the issue solved? I haven't heard anything from the police yet.

Just as I was pondering about it, my phone suddenly rang and it was the police. "Hello?" I suddenly felt every inch of my body tensed as I waited for the officer's response. "Good morning, Sir Justin. I'm sorry that I'm calling you just now. I've been informing Sir Daryl about the case, but since everything has been confirmed now, I'm going to tell you everything I know too. If you have time, please come to the police station anytime today or tomorrow. We will be waiting for you," the officer said over the line. I was quiet for a few seconds before answering. Why were they informing Daryl, but not me? "Alright. I will, thank you for your hard work."

The call ended quickly since our conversation was brief. The officer did not explain anything and he told me to just come to the station.

I looked at the alarm clock on top of a drawer beside the bed and saw that it's still early. There's still more than 2 hours left until my class. If I go to the station now, it would take 45 minutes to arrive there, and we might talk for a while so I'm estimating that it would take at least an hour. But if it lasts longer than I think it would and if there was some kind of unexpected accident along the way, it might cost me to lose time. It would take 20 minutes to arrive at school from the station, so the free time I have left wouldn't be enough.

I guess I should just go later after class.

After several minutes of doing nothing, I decided to change my clothes and head to the university instead.

"Why didn't you tell me that someone broke into your house?!" Xander said angrily while following me around. "If it wasn't for Daryl, I wouldn't have known about that!" I stopped walking and looked at him. "Why are you acting like this?" I asked calmly as I scrunched my brows. "I'm concerned about you, okay? Were you hurt anywhere?" He asked as he looked at me with eyes filled with seriousness and worry.

How am I supposed to act if he's being like this? "No. Daryl and I were safe," I said and avoided his gaze.

We were quiet for a while. I'm kind of starting to feel so awkward right now. Why is he suddenly being so quiet? This is so unlike him.

"Shall I take you home?" I looked at him and saw that he was looking at me too. He avoided my eyes and continued talking. "Oh, uh... I mean... Well, I don't have a car like your alpha, but... I brought my motorbike with me. But uh... if you want we can just take a cab instead. I'll pay for it so don't worry," he said while still avoiding my eyes as his whole face started turning red.

"Oh, I have plans today so I won't go home right away," I said, trying not to notice his bright red face. "I-Is that so? Then, shall I take you there?" He said as he lowered his head a bit.

Why is he suddenly being like this? Well, this isn't really sudden because he's been like this ever since the day we met, but this is weird because I thought I showed him enough that I hate him. I don't really hate him though. I just... hated the way he treated me back then.

"It's alright. If you're worrying about my safety, you don't have to. I can handle myself," I said and smiled to reassure him even though I'm not even sure if I could really keep myself safe.

He sighed and said, "Okay. Just let me see you board the bus." I agreed and we both headed to the terminal. This is situation is kind of familiar. Deja vu? This is what happened before some guy broke into the unit.

Haa... whatever. I don't care anymore.. I just want to get to the police station quickly.
