Chapter 36: Sugary Lies

"You heard what I said didn't you?" Sugar Hare interrogated me.

"No, I- I didn't mean to," I reply scared and shaky.

"Oh shut up with that bullshit. I don't want my career getting ruined because of a tattle tailing bitch got that?" He crosses his arms and looks down on me.

"I promise I won't tell anyone... I really just want to have a peaceful life here." I say timidly and afraid.

He sighs. "It's fine. It's not like you look like you'll be popular. You look like a total outcast. Nobody would want to be around you. No one would believe you even if you did tell anyone. So make it easy for yourself and not tell it got it? If you know what's good for you." He glared at me intently.

Could he have heard about the rumors about me... since he knows that I'm an outcast.

"Did you hear the rumors about me?" I raised my courage to ask him.

He squinted. "There are rumors about you? I didn't know people waste their breaths with someone like you."

"What do you mean?" I frown.

"You see I got paparazzi and people following over me just to know my private life. They would start rumors just to have fun with my name it's absolutely sickening. People who gossip are people who don't have lives that's why they make up bullshit to entertain their miserable lives." He rolled his eyes showing his disdain against gossipers

At least he and I are on the same page. We both hate gossip.

"Hmm... now that I think about it. You're friends with that batshit crazy girl that got kicked out right? She's so embarrassing honestly I wouldn't want to be friends with her or anywhere near her if one of my friends did something so embarrassing like that." He made that remark with exploded a blood vessel.

"Don't talk badly about my friend Rose like that. She may be dumb, stupid, careless and a little annoying but she means well she's the best friend you could ever have. How dare you describe her like that. You're the worst person I've seen." I glare at him at anger.

Nobody talks badly about my friend and gets away with it.

Sugar Hare giggled. "I guess lowlifes stick together I suppose. Anyways I'd suggest not talk to me during our stay here cause I don't want to hear from you. Understand?" He gave me a fake smile.

"Like I'd want to talk to you." I rolled my eyes.

"Anyways let's have little house rules. Number 1, Call me Alex because I don't want annoying fans coming in the room, in fact, don't even mention to your friends that I'm here I don't want to get bothered if you do have friends that are. Oh, wait you do. But they're just a bunch of lowlifes like you." He gives me a smirk looking down on me.

I nodded. I don't even wanna waste my energy dealing with him. Although I am curious why is he here?

"Why are you even here in this university? Aren't you a student at Golden Crown Academy?" I ask him confused.

"Apparently my fan base is mostly females and my manager told me to perform performances in the universities here but this is the only place that has a vacant place and my manager wanted me to interact with people to get more fans." He sighs.

"You look like you don't really like to do this," I say to him sternly.

He turns to me and smiled. "I do. It's the annoying fans honestly. THEY ARE FUCKING DISGUSTING AND SICKENING THEY DANCE AND SHIT WHEN I AM LITERALLY SINGING CAN'T THEY JUST SIT DOWN AND ENJOY MY SONG. ALSO WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE TRYING TO SHIP ME WITH PEOPLE THAT I DON'T EVEN LIKE." He throws a little tantrum-throwing his phone.

OH GOD THAT POOR PINK SWEET PHONE.

"YOU SEE WHAT PEOPLE DO TO ME IS WRITE ME IN THESE "FANFICS" BASICALLY JUST TAKE SOMEONE AND THEN WRITE THEM ASS FUCKING ONE ANOTHER. LIKE I DON'T KNOW WHY THE FUCK PRODUCERS MAKE ME DO THESE DODGY SCENES WHERE I ALMOST KISS MY OTHER MATES BECAUSE THESE FANGIRLS SCREAM AND SHOUT WHEN WE DO STUFF LIKE THAT." Alex covers his face and then returns to smiling.

WAIT? He just changed his mood by covering his face.

"Weren't you just angry a minute ago? Also are you sure you aren't mentally ill or anything? You really need to work on your anger management issues." I look at him weirdly out.

"Oh shut the fuck up. Let's just say I always act like I'm having the time of my life outside even though I ain't and my anger just bottles up that's all. Honestly, you're the first one I ranted to other than my manager." He laughs a little.

Wow, he can actually smile... he kind of looks great... if only he doesn't have a bad attitude...

"Anyways why are you even at Golden Crown University? From what I know Golden Crown University is an all-boys university. You don't look like you have an X and Y chromosome to me." He squinted asking me.

"I'm honestly not sure why I'm there either it's for an experiment I think?" I replied unsurely.

"I'm honestly surprised you weren't spotted as a girl. Oh, wait. Nevermind with someone so plain like you. Nobody would notice you especially if you're covered in those other low-class students." Alex makes a disgusted face.

"Why are you even an idol if you hate your fans that much? Also can't you be nice for once?" I say to him.

This guy has done nothing but insults me, my friends, my school, his fans and the students of my school... This guy really has a foul mouth.

"I never wanted to be an idol if that's what you're wondering. It's just a stepping stone to what I'm actually going to achieve in life." He sighs.

"Which is? What is that?" I raised my eyebrow.

"I want to be a CEO of a big company but in order to do that you're brand has to be known and you know those Mewtubers that endorse stuff and are a total sellout to their fans but the stupid fans still buy the products that's what I want. I want a huge following that whatever my company sells my fans will always buy them."

"Isn't it hard to do something that you don't want to do?" I say in a comforting voice.

"Look. Don't show pity on me. If I'm an Idol I can achieve my goals and dreams. It's just a stepping stone after all and we all have to make sacrifices to get what we want." He shrugged off my comforting.

"But can you at least try being nice? You know how you treat people when you're outside?" I say to him.

"So you want me to treat you fakely? Give you fake compliments and flattery? Stroke your ego and feed you all these sugary words that are nothing but air and lies? You would rather have the beautiful lie rather than the hard truth?" He speaks to me sternly raising his voice.

"No, I want you to respect me and treat me like a human being. That's all." I replied.

"Oh please. I don't wanna waste my energy pampering you and shit. Why don't you go run home to mommy and have them do that for you? You're too low class for me to even care about you." He looks at me marginalizing my existence.

"No. I meant like how you treated me before. Talking to me like a normal person. I don't need you to pamper me and shower me with compliments, all I'm asking is to stop looking down on me and treat me as an equal. Can you at least do that?" I say to him sternly.

He is starting to really get on my nerves. He's just been insulting me the entire time I've been here.

He goes silent, perhaps he is thinking something. "Alright then. Excuse me I'll be going for a bit." He walks way closing the door behind him.

Did I really get my points across to him? Why was he silent.

Alex hid in a nearby bathroom and received a call from his manager.

"Hello? What is it?" He answered annoyed.

"Sir, I've found a solo dorm room for you to stay in since you don't like to share your dorm with someone else. It's near you right now. Pack up your things and get moving."

Alex remained silent.

"Hello, sir? Are you there?"

"On second thought. I'm fine with sharing my dorm room with someone." Alex sighs.

"What? Really? That's a first. I thought you didn't like other people." The manager says surprised.

"Well, I guess let's just say this person I'm dormmates with is different than the rest of them. Anyways I'll be going now goodbye." Alex hangs up the phone.

I was unpacking my things and then Alex comes in.

He takes a deep breath. "I got a phone call and they couldn't find a new dorm room for me I guess I'll have to be stuck with you." He rolls his eyes.

Great... I'm stuck with him... It's my first day in Rose Berry University and I'm already stuck with him.
