Love Me, My Omega!

Chapter 28 - 28

"Wow, these are a lot!" Tristan said as he looked at the two baskets full of strawberries. "Can you finish all of them?" He said and chuckled as he looked at me. "Dummy, I'm gonna give some to Daryl and your brothers too, you know," I said and took a huge bite from the sandwich with strawberry jam.

After picking strawberries, we decided to eat some snacks at the cafeteria in this place. I heard this was a tourist spot and that a lot of people go here especially during weekends. A few minutes after we started picking strawberries earlier, many people really did come so it kinda got crowded.

"This tastes really good! Shall we buy some jam?" He said as he munched on the sandwich. "You want some?" I asked as I looked at him while smiling. He kind of looks like a child right now.

Cute.

"Yeah, I'll go buy some later," he said as he nodded his head. "I already bought some though," I said and showed him two jars of strawberry jam. "When did you..." I chuckled because of his facial expression. He looked confused and shocked at the same time. "I bought them when you were paying for the strawberries earlier," I said with a smile on my face.

"Oh, that explains it," he said and chuckled. I stared at his face as he laughed. Everything... Everything about him is just way too adorable. Why am I being like this?

I put my palms against my face. I probably look so red right now and I don't want him to see me in this state. "Hey, are you alright?" I took a few deep breaths to calm myself before removing my hands from covering my face. "Yeah, I am," I said as I avoided his gaze.

Really? Really, Justin? Why am I being like this right now when it's already been quite long since I've known him?

"I'm sorry," he suddenly spoke out of nowhere. I scrunched my eyebrows and looked at him in confusion. "What are you sorry for?" I said as I tilted my head a bit. "I know that this date isn't really the perfect date. I wanted to somehow make this date different from other dates. Movies, dinner, and coffee is just way too common, so I wanted it to be somewhat unique this time because... I wanted it to suit you. A unique date is perfect for a one of a kind person like you."

My eyes widened because of what he said. I laughed awkwardly as I tried to calm myself mentally to stop myself from blushing again. "W-What are you talking about?" I said as my eyes were straying all over the place, trying to avoid his gaze.

How should I even react to this when he's suddenly being so vocal like that?

"Don't mind what I said if you feel uncomfortable. I'm sorry," he said and smiled apologetically. "But I want you to know that I meant every word I said," he continued and chuckled.

We're already on our way home and I could feel my eyelids getting heavier. After we went to the strawberry farm, we went sightseeing in some of the tourist spots.

I feel so sleepy and tired right now, but I must say, I had a lot of fun today. I didn't really expect this kind of date so this made my day more exciting.

Today... was so fun.

"Justin?" Hmm... Why is he calling my name? "Justin?"

I opened my eyes and the first thing that I saw was Tristan's smiling face that was close to mine because he was leaning towards me. "We're here," he said as he moved backwards. "Oh, I must have fallen asleep. I'm sorry," I said and smiled apologetically.

I knew it was bad manners to sleep next to the driver since they could also feel sleepy because of you, but I couldn't help it. Maybe I was just too tired.

"It's alright. Shall I walk you in?" He said as he smiled sweetly. "Thanks, but no. I can go back in myself. Take care on your way home," I said and smiled. I removed the seat belt and just as I was about to get out, he held my wrist.

"Hmm?" I glanced back at him and at the seat belt. I then focused my eyes on him and tilted my head a bit. "What is it? Do you have something to say?" I asked.

"I..." He sighed. He looked like he was hesitating whether he should say it to me or not.

"The strawberries and the jam. They're at the back," he said and smiled. "I'm getting off the car to help you carry them," he said opened the car door. Before I could open the car door on my side, he was already next to the window, smiling ear to ear. He opened the door for me and when I got out, I thanked him.

"I almost forgot about those," I said and chuckled. "Me too. I just realized that we bought those when I saw them as I was looking at you when you were about to open the door," he said and chuckled. He took the paper bag with the jars of jam inside it and handed it to me. He then took the baskets and closed the car door by pushing it with his elbow. "I'm sorry but can you take the keys from my pocket? Just push that button and it'll lock all the doors," he said and smiled. I nodded and said, "Okay."

This is kinda awkward. I feel like I'm groping him, ugh.

I did as he told me and after I locked the car doors, I held onto the keys and we headed inside the condo. I'll just give him the keys later. It'll be so awkward if I put my hand back in his pocket.

We went inside the elevator and it was strangely quiet on our way up. The only people inside the elevator were the two of us. The silence that was supposed to be awkward wasn't awkward at all. In fact, I felt comfortable despite feeling so awkward earlier.

"Will you go out with me?"
