Troy:
"Well, good luck with that. Do not get upset if you find us hugging around the corner. I mean, she has done that before, has she not?" I mumbled, reminding him that there had been other times too, and people had caught us hugging or kissing here.
This time Ian grabbed my collar with one hand and pulled himself close, staring right into my eyes.
I noticed the way his body shook from anger.
"You do that and I will cut your hands off," he told me, pushing me back and then stepping away because the lurker was now waiting for him behind him.
As he walked away, my smirk grew. He had already given me an idea of what I was going to do next.
As soon as I finished celebrating by smiling at his absence, I turned around to leave when I saw someone standing behind me.
I could already tell he had listened to the whole thing about her having a crush on me.
"Yorick," I said, trying to remain calm. "Did you come here to fetch me for exercising? Sorry, I had to come here and speak with Clementine." I made it seem like I had no clue he had heard anything.
"Is it true?" Yorick asked, his muscles pumped because he had just come out of the room after working out on the machines.
"What is?" I replied, trying to appear completely clueless.
"Troy, is it true that she used to have a crush on you and that she wrote about you in her diary?" Yorick confronted me.
I began to pout sadly.
"Listen, I do not want to..." As I tried to make it seem like I felt guilty about talking about the diary, Yorick scoffed.
"Oh, come on, cut it out. Tell me the truth," he hissed, already angry with me over Clementine, because she had a crush on me, because I was her favorite man.
"It is true. Come with me," I told him as I started to step toward the room.
The moment we went inside, I noticed Oriana hiding under the bed again.
We both stared at each other, then at her, and rolled our eyes.
Haiden was probably in the bathroom taking a shower or doing something else.
I used the moment to grab Clementine’s diary, tuck it into my jacket, grab a jacket from the side, put it on my shirtless body, and hide the diary inside it.
I brought Yorick out with me again and stood in the passageway where the cold wind was blowing hard.
It was a little difficult for us to focus on the diary pages because they kept shifting with the wind.
But I managed to pull out the page where she had spoken about having a crush on me.
"Look," I showed it to Yorick.
He had his hands on his waist and tried to read it from afar.
Once he noticed everything she had said about me, he grabbed the diary from my hands and started to read through it almost hastily.
I noticed the way his body tensed, his muscles clenching.
He read the whole page and then slammed the diary shut, shoving it into my chest.
"Yorick, what happened?" I asked, calling after him. But he began to step away, probably to work out more.
My eyes shifted to someone coming out of her dorm room.
