My Atypical Wolf (BL)

Chapter 150: Weird and Confusing

Once the semester date neared, college students started to return one by one. Unlike last time, it was Warren who arrived earlier than his roommate, probably because his roommate will join later as his boyfriend was joining them this year, or at least that’s what his roommate told him when he asked Warren to clean up the room.

The point is, he didn’t mind staying alone. In fact after a crowded holiday he had with his siblings, their spouses and their kids, he actually enjoyed this calm and peaceful environment.

Almost after around 2 weeks, when Caleb finally showed up he was a bit disappointed that he would have to deal with constant nagging that the room is a mess, but even he had to admit, Caleb was much more suitable roommate than his chaotic nieces and nephews.

On one such day when he was playing on his phone he heard a knock on the door. It was unusual because usually the only person who came to their room was Caleb, and he knew that Warren usually kept the door open so he didn’t have to get up.

“Come in”! He shouted from his bed.

The door opened to reveal a tall, muscular but a familiar guy. He gave off an intimidating vibe and it took Warren a moment to recognize him, “Ashton”?

“Hi” Ashton cleared his throat awkwardly. “Is Caleb...here”? He asked reluctantly.

.....

Warren shook his head casually before he mumbled, “He went out. In fact, I would guess he went to see you”.

“Did he”? Ashton frowned. “Then maybe, I should go back” he mumbled.” Warren couldn’t help but chuckle at his words. He could understand why Caleb called this hunky guy adorable.

“Did you... grow taller”? After a moment of awkward silence, Warren asked.

“I dunno”, Ashton shrugged.

“You look taller. I know I didn’t shrink down”. Warren mumbled.

Ashton thought for a while when he realized that even Caleb seemed a bit shorter to him that usual. Being in a growing phase it was confusing. You don’t really realise much, but people around you notice.

“Okay, I should get going” Ashton mumbled awkwardly and left.

Warren huffed in frustration when Ashton left the door ajar. He got up, against his will and was about to shut it when someone very unexpected popped up. He expected the other person to say something, but she simply stared at him, freaking him out.

“What”? He asked, getting more uncomfortable by the moment.

“Cal..Caleb”? She stumbled,

“Oh” So that’s why she is here. He had no idea who she was or how she knew Caleb. Usually when girls show up to their dorm they know it’s because they are here to visit their boyfriend. He knew for a fact that it was not the case with this girl unless she was being delusional or Caleb was cheating on his own boyfriend.

“Who are you”? He asked skeptically.

Clearing her throat twice she answered, “I am Karolyn. I am his friend”.

“He never mentioned you”, Warren furrowed his brow getting suspicious by the minute.

“Wow, I am not at all offended”, Karolyn mumbled. The suspicious glare from Warren deepened further which hinted her what idea Warren was getting from her. And she absolutely hated to give him the wrong idea, “Look, I am not his stalker okay, I know he has a ma-... I mean a boyfriend” She corrected herself at the last moment.

Somehow her affirmation made Warren relax a bit as he unconsciously stepped aside from the door. Even still she didn’t enter their room, “Can I help you”? Warren asked.

“Well, I came here to see him. He agreed to help me with something and I wanted to know what’s up with that”. She sighed. “But... I don’t think that would be necessary.” She gave him a devious smile creeping him out once more.

“What”? Warren couldn’t help but ask. He has seen crazy behaviours from girls before, but somehow her behaviour seemed different. Nevertheless it was still odd.

“Nothing, it’s a long story.” She shook her head and sighed.

“Okay...” He mumbled awkwardly. He didn’t know what else to say. It seemed they were pretty much done with the conversation now, but he didn’t wanna seem rude and shut the door at her face so he waited patiently for her to leave.

“Do you mind if I ask you something”? She asked with reluctance.

“What”? Warren asked, quite worried where this conversation was headed.

“Don’t take this the wrong way... but... are you perhaps mixed race”? She asked. Race could be a controversial topic and she was not sure if it was okay to bring it up.

“Yeah, I am part latin” He shrugged.

“I knew it”! Karolyn exclaimed. Her giant smile faded away when he noticed the dirty look Warren was giving her to her response so she cleared her throat so she cleared her throat and asked, “Do you know when Caleb would be here”? She asked.

Warren shook his head, “Can’t you just call him or something”?

“Nah,” She shook her head, “Can you tell him I stopped by? Just tell him my name, Karolyn”.

“Will do,” Warren nodded.

She turned around, “Oh, and tell him I don’t need his help regarding... Well, what I asked him.” She smiled. “Also, tell him I said he is an idiot” She gave him a sarcastic smile before she flitted off their premises. Warren stared at her back as he contemplated their somewhat weird and confusing interaction.

Once she was out of his sight he noticed that few of the guys were staring at her while giving all those looks. Now that he thinks about it he must admit she was quite attractive. If he didn’t get those creepy vibes from her, who knows he might be even attracted to her.

Caleb showed up around evening looking all happy and all. Warren had a good guess why but he had no intention of confirming his suspicion. He made sure he informed Caleb everything. Caleb frowned at first as to why she would call him an idiot. If anything, he was known for being quite brilliant back at his pack.

“Oh and also, she asked me if I am mixed race?” Warren added.

Caleb’s eyes widened, “wait, you are”?

“Yeah”? He looked at him like, ‘duh’. “Part-latin”

“OH MY GOD” Caleb screamed, startling the hell out of his roommate.
