🍪Ellie's P.O.V

Zaaamn: The first word that entered my mind when I saw Alec King's house.

The house must've cost a fortune and I'm quite surprised considering he wasn't a show off when it comes to his money, most people would jump at the idea to show off.

"This is amazayn," I awed, my eyes taking in each detail of the house. I unclipped the helmet before handing it to him.

Alec took a hold of it,"Amazayn? Were you one of those fans who were crazily obsessed with some guys who had british accents before?" He wondered out, glancing at me briefly.

"They're called One Direction Alec and please refrain yourself from associating fans with the word crazy. It was even proven by a psychiatrist that there were no such things as crazy fans. It's called being dedicated," I deadpanned, glaring at him slightly.

(A/N: Special s/out to all fans out there esp to Directioners and Army Fans!!(;)

"Woah, Don't go savage on me now biscotto. I was just saying," He raised his hands up playfully.

"Then don't use the word fan and crazy in the same sentence," I shot back, rolling my eyes.

"Noted," He said and before I knew it, he once again had me over his shoulders.

"I could just walk you know? It's not like I'm gonna step on something dirty considering you have freaking tiled floors on your front porch," I grumbled, letting my arms swing like a chandelier.

"I'm not taking any chances," He shrugged, earning an eye roll from me.

I let out a squeak, feeling the familiar sting of Alec's spank. Why this imbecile!

Let's not lie to ourselves, you like it. My subconscious whom I named Jessica piped in.

Being an over thinker had earned me quite a talkative subconscious and considering its a part of me, I decided to name her Jessica because it atleast deserves to have a name and sometimes she sounds like a Jessica.

You know the feeling where you see someone or hear them and assume their name because you feel like it is something that a person with that name would do? Yep, it's like that.

"One more Alec and I'll slap you in the back of your head so hard that you'll break your neck," I threatened, fisting my hands tightly.

"Do that and let's see what'll happen. Non mi dispiace colpirti a morte," He said, a hint of accent in his voice.

(I don't mind punishing the hell out of you)

I bit my lip, whatever he said on the last part seemed like a threat and from the way he said it out, He had every bit of intention on going through it.

Alec- 1
Savage Me- 0

He typed in the passcode at what seemed like a high tech door all the while trying not to gape at how cool it was when it let out a loud beep before unlocking.

Yeah sorry, I ain't born rich.

He set me down gently and closed the door before turning the lights on. The outside was beautiful but the interior was another level, completely.

There was a chandelier hanging at the top and the walls were painted a simple white, a cute assorted coach set was in the corner with a huge flat screen that had a few picture frames placed at the side of it.

The living room was facing in front of the dining table, a huge dark shelves that had different trophies in it that were separating it from the kitchen and dining table.

At the far end of the room, I could see a door which I'm assuming is a bathroom for guests. Near the entrance door was a set of stairs that were pushed up at the corner that led to the second floor.

"You live here alone?" I asked, eyeing the paintings that were hung on the wall.

"I don't. Chase lives here with me and my mom but she's not here tonight," He answered briefly.

I hummed in reply, taking a mental note that he didn't mention his dad nor any siblings and to make sure not to bring it up.

"Come on, let's clean those cuts of yours," He said, making his way upstairs.

I followed after him quietly, looking down to make sure that I wouldn't trip on the stairs or on my own feet.

Yeah, my motor neurons aren't exactly a 10/10 and it's more like a 3/10 most of the time.

I tried to ignore the stinging pain in my feet but I couldn't help but let a few grimace here and there.

The second floor was much more beautiful. You would pass by an open area that had two book shelves on each wall that were brimmed with books. In the middle was a desk that faced a huge window, a comfy couch was on the corner along with a few bean bags.

When you continue walking, it would lead you to a hallway that would split into another two hallways that lined up with many doors. Alec turned left and we passed by a couple of doors before we stopped by the one at the end.

"Don't touch anything," He warned me, before opening the door.

Alec's room was aesthetically beautiful. He had painted his room a black, A white king size bed with striped comforters was pushed up the middle of the wall with a moon painted on top of it. A flat screen tv faced his bed and a typical Xbox set. There were a few paintings that hung in his walls that made it even more pleasing.

I was guessing the other door led to his bathroom. He had a walk in closet and I was curious wether he had an area full of suits and ties like the one in fifty shades of gray.

"I wouldn't dare," I mumbled, standing at his room awkwardly.

He turned to glanced at me,"What?" He asked, setting his keys on the bedside table.

"Nothing," I said, watching him enter his bathroom. I made my way closer to one of the painting, nodding at how he had good taste in art.

"Come here in the bathroom," He called out, his voice muffled slightly by the sound of water from the bathroom.

I made my way inside and saw him standing at the foot of his, not even a surprise, bathtub. He had a hand-held shower on his hand and his phone in the other.

"Can you stand in the bath tub? It says here that I need to wash your cuts first with running water," He said, looking at his phone to make sure again.

I couldn't help but awe at the unconscious pout that he was doing while he looked at his phone. A strand of his messy hair had fallen and now hang between his eyes.

Bad boy has left the group chat, guys.

I bit my lip to stop myself from smiling at his oddly kind gesture. I made my way towards the bath tub and he placed his phone back on the sink.

"You know I can do it, right?" I asked, trying to take the shower head away from him.

He shook his head,"Shut up and lift your foot," He demanded, glaring at me slightly.

I gave him an amused look, all the while lifting my foot up.

"This might hurt okay?" He warned, before bending down slightly and started washing my foot.

I bit my lip, the stinging wasn't exactly painful but it was enough for me to feel uncomfortable.

I stood there for two more minutes before he pulled a small towel on the rack and started to take each foot up and patted it dry.

"Wear this and go sit on the bed," He demanded, handing me a pair of what seems to be his fluffy slippers.

It was funny how my feet didn't even reach halfway of the slippers. I made my way towards the bed and plopped my butt on it.

Alec emerged a minute later, the first aid kit on his hand. He placed the first aid kit on the floor before sitting indian style in front of me.

"You don't have to do this you know? It doesn't even hurt that much anymore," I protested lightly, eyeing the first aid kit.

"Lift your foot up," He said, completely ignoring what I said.

I sighed, doing what he asked. He took something that looked like an ointment before twisting the cap off and started putting it on my cuts.

My phone suddenly rang and I couldn't help but be surprised that it hadn't fell out earlier from my running marathon. The caller ID said mom and without wasting a second swiped to answer.

"Hi mom," I forcefully said, glancing at Alec at the mention of my mom. I widened my eyes, threatening him not to say a word.

He rolled his eyes at this, going back to what he was doing. I wasn't stupid though, I knew from the way he craned his neck upwards, he was listening.

"Honey, where are you? it's almost nine," She started off, a worried tone to her voice.

"I'm actually on my way to Ark's house Mom. We texted earlier and she needs me to back her up tonight." I lied, biting my lower lip nervously.

I couldn't exactly go home with a huge bruise on my wrist and cuts on my feet. My mom would hunt those three down when she'll find out and I didn't want my dad see her being pulled up at station, again.

My mom don't take things lightly when people hurt us, physically or mentally. I remember in first grade when I got into a fight between a girl because she took my favorite pencil and her snobby mother told me off for pushing her daughter.

When mom found out about it, the very next day she was pulled up in the station because she was caught slashing the tires of that girl's mother car.

Yeah, my mom's a savage when it comes to her children.

"Her dad is back? I don't understand why that step mother of her keeps bullying Ark. She gotta accept the fact that she married a guy with a kid," Mom grumbled, knowing the rivalry situation between Ark and her step-mother.

I sighed,"Yes, he's back. I don't even understand it either mom," I answered, twirling a piece of hair on my pointer finger.

"Remind Ark that she's always welcome to sleep at our house, okay?" She said and I could hear Theodore singing loudly to barney's song in the background.

"I will, I'll see you tomorrow after school? I'll just borrow some of Ark's clothes." I said to which she agreed, we mumbled our I love you's before ending the call.

I turned to Alec who finished putting the ointment on and was now standing up, the first aid kit on his hand.

"Why'd you lie?" He asked, a frown on his lips.

"I didn't want to bring her wrath unto those three idiots." I shrugged, touching the bruised skin on my wrist.

"They deserve it," He continued, tightening his hold on the kit.

"Indeed they do, don't worry. I'll get back to them one way or another." I replied, letting out a small shrug.

Alec immediately glared at me,"There's no getting back to them or whatsoever because you're never going to see them again," He gruffly said.

I rolled my eyes,"Hopefully I don't but if I do then," I trailed off, his eyes telling me he knew what I meant.

Alec sighed at my words,"You need a ride?" He asked, changing the subject instead.

"Yeah but I have to text Ark first and wait for her reply." I sighed, realizing the possibility that her step-mom threw another welcome party was high and would ruin my chances of sleeping over.

I quickly press her on my contacts and sent a quick text asking her if I could sleep over. I locked my phone, turning to look back at Alec who had his gaze already on me.

"You can sleep here if you want? There's a guest bed room here and I wouldn't mind." Alec said, scratching the back of his neck awkwardly.

"If Ark gives the no signal then I'd gladly take up that offer," I replied, offering him a small smile.

He nodded at my answer,"I'm taking a shower. You can watch some tv if you want," He said, taking the remote from his night stand and handing it to me.

I bit the inside of my cheek and nodded, taking it. He turned around, making his way towards the bathroom whilst swinging the first aid kit casually but not before looking back to me.

"Do you want to join?" He offered, there was no smile on his face but the brimming mischief on his eyes was obvious.

I took the pillow from his bed and was about to throw it at him but he ran inside the bathroom before I could.

I couldn't help the smile that fell on my lips, shaking my head and turning the tv on, picking a random movie to watch.

Alec's freaking mattress was amazing. It was really soft and my body was molding itself on it. I hummed in satisfaction, my body completely relaxing.

Remind me to ask him where he brought this.

I didn't know how long I was watching but I felt the heavy weight of today's event take a toll in my body and pull me to sleep.
