Chapter 59 - He's My Tutor

"WHAT is he doing here?" I asked Seb.

He's watching a football game on his phone. Drake went out, he said he'll just going to buy something and Noah was here beside me, he's eating orange for a while and it's kind of amusing.

"I invited him," He answers.

"WHAT?" I shouted.

"Can't you tone down your voice, sis? My ears will get explode with your noisy mouth!" He complains while covering his two ears.

I rolled my eyes. I was pretty shocked of course! He invited him? For what? Why?

"How did you two get close together? I've never seen you with him,"

"He's my tutor,"

"Tutor? What the hell is that?"

"You don't know what tutor is, Raine? God!"

I rolled my eyes, "Of course I know it bastard! I'm talking about why he became your tutor!"

"Ah.." He giggled. He's so gay!

"First we became friends--"

"And how is that?" I asked him and turn my eyes on Pierre who's now sitting beside my mother's bed.

He's not talking or even moving. Is he a robot?

"I told you to stop looking at him! Psh!" I rolled my eyes again when I heard Noah's irritated voice.

"Then stop texting, Dana. You don't even have a respect for me!" I rolled my eyes again.

"I'm not talking to her! She keeps on calling me and everytime she do that I'll just have to decline it again and again!"

"Yeah, yeah.. You're so defensive," I twitched my lip.

"Of course you're accusing me!"

His face looks so red. I wanna take his phone but it's so possessive of me to do that. Of course, I would fucking block her number on Noah's phone. I hate how she has her own entry on ruining my day.

"There," Noah shows me his phone. "I've blocked her now,"

I smirked secretly. He knows now, huh?

"I didn't ask you to do that," I rolled my eyes.

"But I did this for you. You're jealous right?"

He looks like a joker, smirking in front of me. Oh God.

"No. Why would I?" I gave him my coldest stare.

"You are! Don't deny it!"

"Oh please, Noah. Don't be such a pussy,"

His eyes widened. I wanna laugh but I just kept it.

"Stop saying that baby! I don't kiss bad lips," He looks irritated.

I turn my eyes to my brother. Noah keeps on distracting me so I didn't get to hear his answer. I was startled when I saw his glare on us. He looks like he's about to spit for witnessing our conversation.

"What?" I asked.

"Is that your normal conversation?" He looks weird.

"Uh, yeah. He's kinda like that all the time,"

"I'm not, Raine! You're ruining my image, baby," He pouts.

I blushed at that. Oh God. Can't he stop calling me 'baby' when my brother's around? I'm freaking embarrassed!

"This is nuts.." My brother shook his head.

Fuck this.

"Hey, tell me how did you became friends?" I changed the subject. It's too embarrassing.

He closed his phone and yawned.

"He's an engineer and sometimes he's teaching students from different schools. I happened to bump into him when he came to our school. I was really having a hard time on my Math subject that time and he asked what I was holding and then there, I showed it to him and I told him that I suck on that subject and I don't know how to solve that shit," He chuckled as his remember it. "He offered to teach me and I refused it at first because I thought I would going to pay him but he said it's free, so I grabbed it and we became friends as we always have a session,"

I nod and looked at Pierre again. He's the type of person that I'd never imagined he would be part of our lives. We used to be strangers before, though he approached me once but it never happened again.

As I've said, I don't want to be the center of spotlight. I don't need any attention. I've always want a normal and peaceful life where my friends and I are happy.

"And you're still in touch with each other?" I asked.

Noah sat in front of us. He's glaring at me. I know what he's thinking again but I just rolled my eyes at him.

"Kind of? Actually he wants to meet with me now but I told him I can't, because mom needs us.."

"And you told him the reason why you can't go?" He nods. Now I still don't get why Pierre is here.. I mean--okay! It's rude if he won't come because my brother invited him but he doesn't have to! God this crazy!

I bit my lip and grabbed some grapes on the table. I put it inside my mouth and I can't help but to close my eyes while eating it. So good.

"Ahh.." Noah acted to give me some and he's just too cute by that. I blushed and just eat it. This man doesn't know how to hide his sweetness.

"Get a room, Raine," Seb rolled his eyes and that made me blushed more.

I heard the door closes and Drake entered. He's carrying two paperbags, I looked at the time. It took one hour while he's away and I can tell that he bought some food outside.

"I made some porridge for mom and some grilled abalone and lobster soup for us," He put the paperbag on the table.

He cooked? How? He knows how to?

"Don't look at me like that, Raine. I know how to cook not like you," He says in a cold way.

"I know how to cook, idiot! I just don't have..time.." I bit my lip as I feel Noah's stare at me.

I really do know how to cook but I'm just too lazy. I only cook for myself, my friends are always away. So I just don't have a choice but to eat anywhere..

"She's right, bro. She once cook for me.." Noah interjects.

Holy shit!

I blushed. He still remember that? God!

His wicked smile makes me want to just disappear here. Why does he have to mention that? Ugh!

"Really?" Drake smirked.

I can feel how Pierre turn his gaze on my direction and I just felt more embarrassed for that! The way they talked about it makes the situation worst! It's like a miracle came because I cooked for someone!

"That's the first time my sister cooked for someone.." Drake grinned and bit his lower lip.

I knew it!

"What did you make for me again, Drake?" My mom asked. Thank God! She's my savior!

I heard Noah's chuckles and I just gave him a deadly glare.

"I made some chicken porridge for you mom. Hope you like it,"

Aww. My brother is so sweet.

My mother smiles and caressed his back. She's grateful.

"Thank you, Drake. I would love this!" She giggled and my brother smiled.

"That is just a porridge mom! I can bake you a cake too!" Seb shouts and we just laugh.

"That's too heavy, idiot!" I laugh and his face darkened. He looks annoyed.

"Do you like porridge, Pierre?" My mom asked.

I turn my eyes at him. His face is still blank but I can see that he's tense just by how the sweat in his forehead shows.

"S-sure.." He nods.

I shrugged. Weird.

We started eat after that. The boys prepared for the table and we put all the dishes on it. I was craving for seafoods when we went to beach earlier but I didn't get to eat it because of the incident. I'm thankful that my brother cooked grilled abalone and lobster soup. I can finally eat it!

"Come here, Raine. I'll help you with that," Noah says and took the lobster's tail from me.

I bit my lip and watched him remove all the flesh out from it's shell. He's good at it, huh? He did it easily.

"You're good at this, dude?" Seb shows his thumb to the air.

I chuckled and give the bowl of abalone to Pierre. He was startled at first but he gladly takes it at the end.

"Have some, Pierre. Drake cook all of that," I smiled. I have to act normal in front of them.

Pierre's my high school crush for pete's sake!

"T-thank you.." He takes it.

I started to eat again. I don't mind the awkward situation between us. He doesn't have an idea that I had a crush on him before, though.

"Have some of this too, bro. Your blood pressure will rise if you eat that," Noah offered him the lobster soup. I glared at him. Blood pressure, huh?

I stomp his feet and give him a cat eyes. He's just so stubborn!

His eyes widened in pain as he looked at me. I twitched my upper lip at him and thank God he behaves until we finished eating.

"I'll have to go now, Ma'am. I still have businesses to do. I'll visit you again tomorrow if there's a chance.." He looks shy.

"I'll be happy if you come back again, Pierre.." My mom smiles at him. "Thank you for visiting me,"

"I'll go now." Her looks at me and everyone. "Raine.."

I nod at him and smile. Seb was the one who accompany him outside and this time I just felt relieved. I feel like something was removed inside my chest.

Whooa!

I breathe and looked around. I was looking for Noah and I can't seem to find him. Where is that monkey?

"He's there," Drake points at the balcony.

Noah's back was covered with the curtain so I didn't noticed him immediately. What is he doing there?

I chuckled and went there. He's busy looking on the ground while he's pouting. I wanna laugh when he looks frustrated.

"Hey," I appeared on his face.

His brows furrowed and he looks like he doesn't want to look at me.

What's with this guy, now?

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"None of your business," He acted grumpy.

Oh this guy is such a tease!

"Noah.." I warned.

"Stop talking to me and go with Pierre. He probably wants you to walk with him," He looked away.

What?

Instead of getting mad. I just burst into laugh while looking at his irritated face.

"Stop being so jealous, Noah. That's a turn off," I rolled my eyes.

"Really?" He asked but I ignored him.

Looks like someone's gonna be teased right now.
