The Ruthless Alpha's Human Mate ( M×M )

Chapter 6 : The Creepy Neighbor

The Creepy Neighbor

Jonathan's P O V :

I stretched my arms once the class was finished. It was a long and tiring day. I put all my things inside my backpack and headed straight towards my locker. Once I took out what I needed, I closed the locker and headed home. I knew Sky must be long gone home since she had only one or two classes today, so I had to go home alone. I was lucky that the bus was on time and I made it through. I was walking in the neighborhood when I saw some people whom I had never seen before in the neighborhood. Upon getting close to them, I realized they were helpers. That meant the new neighbor was here. I didn't pay attention to them as I heard my stomach rumbling and I hurried my steps.

" I am home ", I yelled loudly and took off my shoes.

I made my way to my room to freshen up. Once I put on some comfy clothes, I went downstairs and found my grandma arranging plates for me. She gave me a smile when she saw me.

" Come ", she said, and I sat near her. I could feel my saliva dripping down when I saw the food, my grandma's cooking was just awesome.

" This Jambalaya smells heavenly, grandma ", I said, looking at her, and she nodded her head. I did not waste a single second anymore as I dug into the super tasty and delicious Jambalaya.

" Slow down ", grandma said as I hurriedly ate. After I finished, I washed my dishes and sat with my grandma for a while. I took a quick nap as she scratched my head and ruffled my hair. My head was on her lap and her hands did magic on my head. I fell asleep in seconds.

" Come Again ", I said to Mrs. Tiffany who just bought a cake from the shop. The clock showed half past seven. That meant I had to close the shop soon. I got tons of homework and I needed to finish it, so I had to close it early. I was thinking all this when the bell chimed in and I saw a familiar figure walking in.

" Hey ", he said, stepping inside the store. I didn't know his name, but I knew who he was, the chief guest.

" Hello sir ", I said, standing up.

He chuckled a bit and then looked at me.

" I want some pastries ", he said in his usual chirpy voice.

" What kind of pastry do you want ? We have butterscotch, vanilla, strawberry, blackforest, double chocolate and red velvet pastries ", I said smilingly, pointing towards the section of pastries.

" Woah, so many choices. Now I am confused about what I want ", he said, scratching the back of his head.

" That's okay, feel free to take a look and you can decide then ", I said and he nodded his head. I watched him as he looked at the pastries, from his body, his looks and the way he was struggling to choose. I knew he wasn't a pastry lover. There was something off about him that irked me.

" You know maybe you could suggest me ", he said and I sighed. I recommended him the red velvet one and he bought six pieces of it.

" Thank you and visit again ", I said to him as he went out of the store.

" Thank you and come again " I said to him for the third time today. It had been a week since he already moved here and from then he has been coming to our bakery four-five times a day. I couldn't understand what his deal was. He was still clueless and everytime I would suggest something to him to buy. From the moment I met him in college, I felt something weird about him. He has been coming to our shop regularly, but I still did not know his name. It's just that sometimes he would stare at me, gave me looks, that damn fine smile and everytime I felt odd sensations in my stomach. I have officially nick named him as the creepy neighbour. Today I told my best friend Sky about him and she just laughed at me saying that he might be into me. I ignored her silly opinion because I knew there was no way someone like him would be interested in me. I was thinking about all this stuff and did not realise how much time had passed. It was already half past nine and I closed the bakery in a hurry. After having dinner with my grandparents, I immediately went to bed and fell asleep.
