Chapter 5
*Manik's POV (dreamy sigh)
I took a couple of deep breaths, still hyperventilating from the kiss. That was selfish of me to do, thinking that she would have wanted it. When her expressions now clearly shows not.
It's just that these feelings for have been stifled for so long, I took out all my love for her desperately in that kiss. I shouldn't have said anything.
Just thinking of her dark shining eyes, her soft red pouty lips, the perfect hourglass body, her toned thighs, all just gets me more excited each time.
Her groan during the kiss got me thinking that she was enjoying it, & her digging nails into my shoulder thought she was urging me on, along with her arms on my chest. When in real life she was trying to get me away.
I groaned in frustration, went down the stairs, slipped & fell down. My jeans slipped off my hips slightly, making my buldge a bit bigger.
Nandini came over & her eyes widened as she saw it, and a small blushed formed along my cheeks, as I tried to draw attention away from it.
"See? I just think I got hard for you," I said jokingly.
Her eyes were rock solid, showing no signs of amusement.
"I'm sorry okay? Its just that-"
"Manik just leave I need some time to think"
"Should I come back at night?" I asked feeling helpless & depressed, really hating myself now. When was the last time I kissed a girl? Years ago, & I probably sucked terribly at it.
"I don't think you should"
Rejection hurts, & I felt torn apart, especially since its the girl I love thats turning me down. I can't sleep without her warmth & body in my arms, I had gotten so used to it since I asked to sleep with her after I broke up with Soha.
"Okay" I whispered, trying to hold back my emotions.
Outside, it was gloomy & raining, rain mixing in with my light tears. Holding emotions back is soo hard, I don't know how Nandini does it.
She's been able to perfect it since she was eleven, when her parents were murdered in front of her own eyes. They were the owners of a wealthy industry, & she was going to inherit it. Which she did ofcourse. I never forgot the look in her eyes.
She kept to herself majority of the time, & had become a dark, quite girl. It took forver for me to break down some of her guards. Her aunt comes & checks up on her, eluding the court into thinking that she lived with Nandini. She pays the bills & everthing so I guess that works.
My life isn't the sweetest either, but its no where as cold & empty as Nandini's. My mom remarried after dad walked out. The guy is majority of the time drunk, but I stay out of his way most of the time. I don't bring Nandini either, who knows what he might try.
But my mom, Nyonika, loved Nandini like her daughter. She checks upon her more than her aunt does. Which Nandini is thankful for, but everytime my mom & I have a moment, like me hugging her or telling her I love her, Nandini would have that longing far away look in her eyes, & I knew if she was asked for to give up everything jusy to see them, she would.
I crashed onto bed, clutching my pillow, trying to sleep. But the pillow doesn't fit against me. Nor does it smell like her. Her scent was just a light trace, of something too good to describe, but it has her shampoo mixed with her body gel. She was never the types to drench herself in perfumes.
I went through my closet & rummaged through until I found her "I'M ALL SASS BABY" tshirt. I clutched it to me,& eventually dosed off, inhaling her Cherry blosom scent, really missing her.
*Nandini's POV*
I've looked & felt like crap all day. Why? Because my idiotic Teddy Bear was not there. Aka Manik. Every time he sleeps with me, I notice he keeps away all bad dreams, like my mind replaying my parents' murder.
Although I force them out of my head during the day, I can't control it at night. So that is how I woke up at two in the morning, my pillow & face drenched in tears.
It took all my willpower to not walk right over there & climb through his window & cuddle with him again. Just thinking about him makes me miss his warmth.
When he asked if he should come back, I should have said yes. I was an idiot for thinking I would be fine without him. So what if the kiss didn't mean anything.
I got up & went through my closet, rummaged through until I found his section. I pulled out an old tshirt that he always wore, so it would have his scent. I clutched it to me, praying I won't replay my parents getting shot.
When I woke up, the sky was still gray & cloudy, which darkened my mood. Ofcourse when I looked in the mirror my mood got ten times worse. My hair was all over the place, I had massive bags under my eyes & puffiness from crying at night, & my lips were split & chapped.
Taking my outfit, skinny jeans & a black shirt, I headed to the shower, & I was in an eff it mood. And those didn't end well either. I put the hot water on, letting it unknot all my muscles, & I instantly loosened up, & took a few shaky breaths. I put conditioner to tame the hair, & starting brushing it got out of the shower. I put moisturizer on my face & grabbed my makeup bag & plopped on or to the counter. I took out concealer & applied all over my eyes. When I was done I had a concealer caked all over my face. Setting it with powder, I took my eyeshadow & applied over the lid to cover the redness. Eventually, I decided I was decent, & packed my bag.
Usually Manik drives me, but after yesterday I don't know where we stand, but I really hope he would still take me back. After going through crap yesterday all night, I don't care even if Manik had done something more than that, I need him back. I never realised how important he really was to me.
I got on to the bus, not ready to face him just yet. As I got on the bus, I plugged in my Ipod & blasted the songs. When the bus stopped to school, I got off & decided to look for Manik. My stomach twisted when I saw Soha grinding herself against him, & Manik looking like he'd care less. He looks like he hasn't gotten much sleep from the look of it either. But that was probably cuz he invited all the guys & Soha & other s****.
He usually hung around me so he hasn't had a guys day in a while. But I was never one to stop & look at a guy, show that I was heartbroken from Soha practically giving him lapdance. Never have I ever cried for any guy I dated. I caught Maddy once cheating on me, but as he called my name, I gave him the peace sign & walked off.
So I simply walked off away from Manik, keeping a poker face even though I wanted to go & cry my heart out. I heard him faintly call my name, only I just stalked off towards my locker to get my books. If he kisses me one day & gets a lapdance from a s*** the another day, then he's just another player that I wont lend my heart to. Because I've been in enough pain to last me a lifetime. Seeing Soha & Manik eventually makeout as a result of me not being hurt, so be it.
I made my way to the locker, only to see a cute boy with light brown floppy hair that was in his eyes give me a dimpled smile.
"Hey," he said, his voice deep & smooth.
"What do you want?" I rather ask bluntly.
"You" he flashed the dimples again.
"Come again?"
"Well I mean you are the most beautiful girl in practically all of high school, & I was dying to get you to go out with me, only you have that guy around you all the time, I never had the guts to ask," he said setting his jaw.
"Umm so who are you?" I asked analyzing him. Short skewed blue tshirt that really brought out his eyes.
"Aryaman," he smirked, his eyes glowing.
"Are you a player?" I asked honestly caring less, bcz he was hot. His abs showed through his shirt, & I must say he would be a great guy to replace Manik for the meanwhile, & it would be fun to see his reaction.
"Nope, & I was waiting way too long to date you to go to some s***" he said eagerly.
I laughed & said, "Ok here's my number & don't you DARE give it out to anyone else or else you will get a personal escort to the afterlife."
He threw his head back & laughed.
"Fiesty, huh," he whispered his lips nearing mine.
"Very," I whispered closer to his lips. He leaned in, only I pulled away & walked down the hall, with 'See ya around dimples'
"ITS ARYAMAN," I heard him yell, but with a smile in his voice. I waved it off as it wasn't a big deal & made it to the homeroom.
Manik, hon, let the game begin.
