In the middle of the night when the wolves come out
headed straight for your heart
Like a bullet in the dark
One by one, I'm gonna take them down
But they run and hide, ain't goin' down without a fight
I hear them calling for you
There were very few things that could make Arnav uneasy. But the very thing that would wreck his nerves the most was to see a girl cry. As cheesy as it sounds.
For as long as he could remember, his mother had always taught him to be a gentleman. He didn't quite turn out perfect but still had a few tricks up his sleeves. One thing he still keeps true is to always keep a girl smiling. He had his own conditions to that but that is out of the subject.
And those words of his mother were ringing loud in his ears as he stood there, in front of the very pretty black-haired damsel. Get over her hair!
Still recovering from the incident that took place not even 5 minutes ago, she stood there, covering her face and hiccupping now and then between her light sobs.
"Hey love. What's your name?"
"Not love." Came her reply surprising Arnav to great extends.
Even while crying she hadn't left her flare!
"Well then, not love, are you alright?" asked Arnav in the nicest tone he could muster.
"You don't have to worry about me. I don't need your help." She said fiercely.
Arnav did a double take on the little shaking creature in front of him. She was in a room, full of people trying to harm and about to lose her shit, not even an hour ago. And here she is, acting all strong. Ironic, since he does not plan to harm her, but they did.
"Do you not know who I am?" All this was very amusing to him.
"I do. You don't have to remind me of the unfortunate." Came her instant reply.
"What do you mean?" *justin beiber,anyone?* 😆
"I mean, Mr. Bad Boy, that I don't care what you are or who you are. I don't need your help!" she yelled in a shaky voice.
"Ouch! Goody Goody, you hurt my non-existent heart." He said smirking.
She lifted her head, and that was all it took to take his breadth away.
Hazel.
Warm and inviting eyes, swollen and filled with tears meet his gray eyes in a fierce glare. Despite the glare, he noticed the corners of her mouth lifting.
"Shut up, jerk." She murmured looking away.
"So I am a jerk now?" This was very entertaining.
"Can you please leave me alone?" She asked in a defeated tone.
"Nope.I am your knight in shining armour. Remember?" With twinkling eyes and a widening smirk, he replied.
"Oh god!" She sighed heavily.
"The name's Arnav." He offered her his hand. Hoping against hope that she'll take it and maybe even end this game of name-guessing.
"I know." Was her only reply.
It was becoming difficult with passing seconds to hold his arms at his sides to stop them from tucking her locks behind her ears. Again with the hair! What is up with you?
She looked at him again to see him staring right back at her. She flushed a beautiful red, as not being very familiar with such attention.
Never had she in her 18 year old life thought that she would be standing on a balcony of a high-school jock's house, right after being almost chopped to death, at a party that she was forced to go, talking with the infamous Arnav Singh Raizada.
But there was something about him that drew her in. She knew he was bad news and she couldn't help but look straight in the eyes of dangerous territories and like it the slightest bit.
With same thoughts swirling around in Arnav's mind, he couldn't help but wonder what was it about her that made him act out of his character tonight. She has this aura around her that screamed of innocence and purity but also came with a caution sign of "Handle with care or she'll bite your head off". It was amusing and strangely refreshing. And it was all he needed in the moment.
Right on the verge of losing hope on finding her name, he heard the faintest of the whispers tickle his ears.
"I'm Khushi."
With a dorky, surprisingly heartfelt, smile he offered her a lift home. And to set the rush to his head, she accepted. He couldn't have imagined the grace of her presence to turn around his soiled mood to one of hope.
Hope of a change.
