7 LOVE BITES

-Ziggy's POV -

" I can't find Xhem " Huzey informed us and strokes his nape with his hands. That's the first word he
uttered as soon as he saw us in the hallway.

After we finished our dinner, he went to find Xhemin. Coach and I decided to drop by the university
souvenir shop. I choose to go with coach because finding Xhem is not fun all. Also, she's already old
enough to handle herself. She might be younger than Huzey and I but she sure is independent and tough
enough that one cannot just easily lure her into danger.

"C'mon Huzey, don't be too strict with her. You both have been constantly calling her a tomboy and now
that she's proven you wrong, you're suddenly guarding her every actions. Also she only been gone for an
hour. Why don't you find a love life too and don't bother her?" Coach said trying to pacify Huzey's
distress over the missing Xhem.

"I just don't trust that man..." he spoke with disgust and squinted his eyes. Well, Huzey had always acted
as our big brother so I'm not surprise if he's acting this way.

"What do you think they are doing at this time?" I asked in a mischievous manner trying to lighten up
the mood.

"Who? " Huzey responded not getting the thought of it.

" Xhemin and his boyfriend." I answered abruptly. I wipe my nose and wink at the both of them. We are
now heading to the quarters.

"You're not serious right?" Huzey responded trying to brush off my silliness.

"Well, aren't you guys curious? They just left without any trace."
" I bet they went to Xuxu" Coach knows that I am being silly and he joined with the fun. Xuxu is popular
cheap hotel for lovers that is popular in this region.

" Xuxu ? What is that?" Huzey asked with curiosity. Huzey didn't grow up in this region and his family is a
paragon of good moral behavior. Therefore, he must have no knowledge of cheap local hotels for
lovers.

" It's a glorious place!" I exclaimed as I burst into laughs.

Huzey knows that we are fooling him around so he stop his inquiries. Mr. Gem and I were still laughing
when we reach the stairs leading to the quarters. We bumped into to the San Sebastian team we met
earlier. They must have also finished their dinner and is heading out to the quarters. We greeted each
other and go along with them.

"I think Xhem is not yet here coach" I glanced to Mr Gem as soon as I saw that the room's light is still
turned off. It's an indication that no one is inside yet. Since Huzey couldn't find Xhem outside the
canteen, I already thought she is here. I wonder where that lil' thug went to.

"Don't worry about her too much, I'm sure she's just around" Coach replied and checked the time in his
watch. I could sense that he is also worried about the fact that Xhem is not yet here.

San Sebastian students went in first, followed by Huzey. I could see that somebody turned on the lights
and Huzey called to someone.

"Xhem you are here! I was looking for ----"

" W a a aa a a a a a a ah ! " Someone from the flock of students inside shouted as soon as they turned
their head to one corner in unison.

What happened? Huzey called on Xhem so she must be inside. Did something happened to her? Coach
and I ran immediately to check what happened.
A horrifying view stunned us for a moment!

Correction-

Not a horrifying view but a sexy intimate scene!

I think the love birds didn't make it out to Xuxu. I can't help but laugh when I saw Xhemin's face.

I saw Xhem in bed bending slightly over the man as if she wants to kiss him. The man is lying still on the
bed half naked. He has no shirt and is only wearing jeans. From this view, it seems that she is on top of
him since her legs are wrapped around his body and his other hand is holding – his thing.

Yeah. His thing.

Her eyes wandered in front of us as soon as if confused of what is happening and why is everybody
screaming. Students exchanged gazes and some of them head out the room immediately as if they saw
something that they shouldn't have seen.

Much to her surprise the man tried to stand up. She shifted her gaze toward him and her eyes grew big
in surprise! She didn't move and blinked a couple of times as if she can't believe that someone is in her
bed!

" Take-off-your-hand-from-my-thing!" The man said loudly with a jutting chin. His voice contained
something else, as if he is trying to control something.

Xhem jumped out of bed in an instant. Her face is really red. Darryl seems like he just woke up from
slumber. However as he stood up I saw that his body is full of--- .

Are those kiss marks?

His pale skin is glowing with small red marks all over it. He is half naked so the marks are too obvious
one can't help but notice. Also sweat is gushing over his abdomen as if he had just gone a thorough
exercise.

Did Xhem made those? I looked at her with astonishment. She stood there motionless and stared in
disbelief. Her reaction drew a small laugh in my face. In a minute she snapped back to really. She raised
his head and ---

" W A A A A A AA H" she screamed loudly.

We all covered our ears.

-Xhemin's POV –

Suddenly the lights turned on in an instant. I saw the familiar faces of the San Sebastian students coming
in one by one and Huzey too.

" Xhem you're here! I've been looking for ---" Huzey called but for some reasons he stopped talking and
gape open in front of me.

His call made everyone turned to my side and just like Huzey they were all stunned upon seeing me.

" W a a a a a a a h! ". I heard someone screamed. What's happening?

" Oh look-- the love birds are just here!" Somebody from the crowd spoke.

"They needed a little bit of a privacy you see" another one commented.

" So Darryl really love wild girls? From the looks it, the answer is yes!" another someone I don't know
added.

What are these kids talking about? Why are they talking about the beast when he is not even here?
Also, why would he be here? This couldn't possibly be also his quarters!

Someone suddenly move beside me. Heck? I looked at the pillow that I was hugging earlier. My jaw
dropped when I saw the beast lying by my side without his shirt. How did he transport himself here?

" Take-off-your-hands-from-my-thing!" He lashed out. There's something in his voice as if he is in pain

and is trying to control something.

I leap out the bed in an instant. I can't understand any of these a bit. Can somebody explain this to me?
My nerves panicked as the current situation rushed to my senses. I fix my gaze to him unable to move.

Did I say I had enough for today earlier? This is another disaster. All our encounters are indeed fated to
be doomed!

He looks like he just woke up. His eyes are reddish and he soaked in sweat. He stood up from the bed
and heck--- what is that I'm seeing?

Why is he full of kiss marks?

" Dude, I guess you had to much of love bites" people are starting to tease us again. It was somebody
from San Sebastian.
" Your girlfriend is indeed wild"

" Hey dude your taste of girls does serves you right"

Why does he have kiss marks? Did I make those? Does touching produces kiss marks? I just touched him
earlier right? I did nothing else. A lot of feelings are rising within me that is about to explode. I was left
helpless and I'm about to lose my sanity.

" W a a a a a a aa ah " I screamed with all my strength trying to let go of all the emotions I have. Did I
ever tell you guys I had the loudest scream? Well now, you know!

All of them covered their ears. Some went out of the room as they could not withstand it.

" W a a a a a a aa ah----" I shouted again after my last scream.

" Shut the f*ck off! " He cut me off. I swallowed my last scream and shut up. His face is squelching in
anger that made my knees tremble. He looked at me with a laser-sharp gaze.

Suddenly, someone punch him in surprise! It was Huzey!

Blag!

" What did you to her?" Huzey gnashed his teeth as his blow landed to his face.

The beast fell on the bed beside him. He was about to stand and fight back when a male coach came to
stop him. Ziggy run to Huzey in an instant and get a hold of him. He was trying to stop him from
attacking further. All had happened in a flash I couldn't even manage to react.

" Why don't you ask her what she did to me?" the retorted in rage.
" Why me? I don't know what you are doing in my bed!" I almost cried as I shouted back at him. Why is
he so mean to me? This beast is really something. He even managed to put the blame on me.

" Stop it all of you!" Mr Gem reprimanded us. The tone of his voice is enough to silence all of us.

" Can you guys not shout at least? You are all so intense" Ziggy managed to remind us calmy. " We can't
sort this out if you guys are like that".

After moments of silence the previous hot atmosphere is slowly cooling down. Ms. Lim who is also here
lead the San Sebastian student out the quarters. She must have thought that this is a sensitive matter
that needs some confidentiality. She also called over Huzey and brought him with her, his presence as of
this moment will not help.

" What exactly happened?" The San Sebastian coach asked our explanation as soon as at the
atmosphere cooled down.

" I went here to rest. I can't sleep comfortably with lights on, so I left the lights off. I lay on the bed and
hug the pillow to take a nap. But when you guys came in and turned on the lights, I realize it wasn't a
pillow" I started explaining myself. I am now sitting on the bed opposite to the beast and his coach.

" Are you sure with that?" Ziggy asked with a mischievous smile. He was trying to tease me obviously.

" Do you want me to punch you like Huzey did to him?" I gave him a black look trying to stop him from
his ludicrous folly.

" No, I don't want punches, I want love bites like those." He pouted his lips towards the beast direction.

" I'm not the one who made those!"

" You are the one who made these!" the beast answered that surprised everyone specially me. Is he
faking it? What is he up to now? I don't remember doing those.
" What are you talking about?" I looked at him helplessly. " How come it was me? Don't even try to
invent things over! We both know I did nothing, I just – hugged you."

I struggled over my last sentence. I lowered my face trying to hide away my humiliation. How could I be
that careless? I should have known that it wasn't a pillow.

"---- And some nasty touch!" Ziggy who can't help but tease, added without hesitation. " Why are you
even denying it? Your boyfriend already admitted to your crime. Also, you don't have to be ashamed of
any of these, its normal for couples to be intimate." he let go of a small laugh.

"Yeah that's --" Coach attempted to agree but I cut him off.

"Coach!" I scowl at him. Why are they being thickhead this time? Can't they see that this is a very
weighty predicament? From the looks of it, It's as if they are selling me off with this beast.

"I was just kidding dear. I was just trying to lighten up the mood. Just relax okay?" he retreated and
started being serious. "Mr. Lagdameo are you sure my Xhemin did those? How did she do it? Is her
performance good enough? Did she satisfy you? I'm really sorry she is still an amateur to things-?

"Coach!" I yelled at him again.

"Okay, okay!" he looked at me with his two hands on the air as a sign of total retreat.

"Mr. Lagdameo, why don't you tell them the truth! Tell them that I didn't made those marks!" I begged
him. Since my teammates are not taking this seriously, I implored him to explain it. If only Huzey was
here.

"Why would I tell a lie? It's the truth that you did these!" He answered and combed his hair as if he was
frustrated of something
"No I did not!"

"Yes you did! You made these earlier when we talked downstairs"

"What?"

What is he talking about? I did those earlier downstairs? I tried to collect my memories. I scanned every
details of our encounter earlier.

◘--Flashback--◘

"Caught you!" I sneered and in millisecond managed to move my free hand into his firm body. As soon
as he realized that something is off, I successfully pinch his sides that made him fidget.

" Hey! Wait! Ahhhh " . He screamed as he twitched to and fro.

"Stop it! It stings!" he yelled at me as he tried to avoid my pinch attacks.

◘------End------◘

I bit my lower lip as soon as I figured it out. He's right. I think I'm really the culprit behind those marks.

"Don't tell me those are pinch marks?" I asked trying to confirm my thoughts.

"Obviously they are. What else could they be?" He smirked. He was obviously miffed.

"Pinch marks? You mean those are not kiss mark?s" Ziggy asked with a crumpled face.
"Yeah, I pinch him earlier after we left the canteen. I was so angry I couldn't help but pinch him a couple
of times" I admitted as I gave Ziggy a glance.

"Why are you in her bed?" This time his coach asked him. "Didn't I instructed you kids to stick to your
bed assignments?" He asked him in a calm manner as if he was afraid of scolding him.

"I don't have a bed assigned to me. I just planned to rest while waiting for you. I don't have plans of
staying. Also I thought these were extra beds, never thought they were taken already. I'm not aware we
are sharing this room with them" He explained unfeelingly.

"And why is your shirt of?" Ziggy asked trying to clear all the loopholes.

"It's hot here and the pinch sores" He glanced at me "It's still her fault."

There. He blamed me again. I'm really furious with him this time. Why did I even have a crush with this
beast? He cares nothing but himself! Oh yes, I just admitted I have a crush on him just now, but at the
same time I'm withdrawing my statement. He doesn't deserve any of my admiration!

"Fine! It's my fault, it's always my fault. It goes that way always right? Happy now?" I lashed at him. My
hands balled into a tight grip.

I didn't wait for them to react. I grab my bag that is full of my clothes and left the room. I need a bath to
cool down. Anymore of this might make me kill someone. Someone whose name is Darryl.
