My whole existence crashed down in irrepressible agony; the pain was horrible. Seeing they clung to each other broke my heart, how could he hug her like his life depends on her?'
When I was walking to my classroom in the morning I noticed him, standing near the cafe along with a group of his friends, but what made me upset was, he was hugging one pretty girl, I must admit she was gorgeous, and where I'm, a skinny girl with pale skin.
"Sharon"
I heard him calling my name before I walked away.
...
Why did Sharon walk away? She was ok with us meeting here, then what happened suddenly?
"Swayam, please just once... please" I looked to my side to see Shardha whose arm has around mine, that's when I came to the reality, Sharon has seen me hugging Shardha. Suddenly I pulled my hands from her hold, without giving any importance to her nagging I ran behind Sharon, calling her name, but as she moved fast, my voice disappeared into thin air.
I ran behind her along the corridor, as soon as she reached in front of the rehearsal hall I pulled her clutching her arm, she came crashing to my chest. Sparks flew away from our bodies, I stood there staring at her hazel eyes, and I completely forgot about my surrounding.
"Leave me swayam."
"Why did you run away?"
"None of your business."
"This is bloody my business." I regretted what I said when I saw hurt in her eyes, a hint of disappointment flashed for a mere second but she just masked her feelings, her vulnerability, with a hard face.
"Go to hell." Cursing me, she walked away and I stood there with a stupid smile.
I love this angry tigress. She is mine, just mine. Proud feeling ran through my spine looking at her, she is gorgeous, everyone says that she is too skinny with a pale skin, but who cares; she is the one I want... her hearts belongs to me. Once again, I ran behind her, but this time directly to her house.

I came out of my bedroom when I heard someone banging on my door.
"Go away swayam."
"If you don't open the door then I will break it."
"Hahaha... like you will do it."
"I will Sharon."
"Then do it." I was least expecting that he will break the door so I went to my room, but after few minutes, he appeared in front of me.
"What the hell? How did you get in?"
He jumped onto my bed totally ignoring me.
"Swayam I'm asking you something." I stood up from my bed.
"Didn't you tell me that I can break the door?" He comfortably laid on my bed supporting his head with his right palm.
"You really broke my door?" My jaw dropped to the floor. He really broke my door.
"I'm sorry"
"What?"
"Come here, " he then pulled me onto the bed and trapped me with his body.
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Romance,"
"Huh?"
"Isn't it obvious, I'm romancing with my girlfriend?" He cheekily grinned and placed his head on my neck. Goosebumps formed on my body when he inhaled my scent.
"You smell so sweet, Sharon." He mumbled into my neck.
"Go and romance with your Shardha," I said, pushing him away from me holding his broad shoulders. I know I was being a heartless bitch, but I was hurt. I know that it had hurt him, he slowly raised his head from my neck and mumbled a sorry.
"It won't work this time."
"Then what should I do that I can make up for it?"
"I don't know." Avoiding his eyes, I snapped my head to another side.
"Look at me Sharon" he turned my face towards him holding my chin.
"Why are you avoiding my eyes?"
"Leave me alone."
"I'm not leaving until you tell me that, why do you avoid my eyes whenever I try to talk to you?" He tightens the hold on me when I wriggled.
"I don't" Pushed him away I stood up.
"Sharon, I know why."
"Is it?"
"Yeah... you avoid my eyes because you lose your control when you look at them." It does not need a rocket science to know that he was smirking.
"Hahaha... very funny." Mocking him I walked away, but I froze on my feet when I heard what he said.
"I love you Sharon"
That was enough to melt my anger, and it did its work, I melted into his love. This is not the first time he said those words, but every time when he says that, I forget my whole problems, he fills a warmth inside me.
"Why are you so insecure?"
I did not move from where I was standing until he turned me to look at him. We both stood in the center of my bedroom staring at each other.
"Sharon, you know..."
Interrupting him, I shouted. "Yeah, I know that I'm insecure." I didn't know why I shouted, I couldn't take it anymore, I lost it when he said that I'm insecure, Yes, I'm damn insecure... who wouldn't be when they hear all those nasty comments from everyone, even from her own family?
"No, you are damn possessive Sharon." He muttered under his breath irritated, but I had heard it.
"You can't stand when I talk to some other girls...," he shouted on my face, "... you can't even take it easy when I talk to my friends." He took a deep sigh and turned his back towards me, frustrated he ran his hand over his hairs, I thought he finished his rant, so I tried to put my hand on his shoulders, but he beat me to it, once again he opened his mouth without looking at me he said, softly, "For god sake Sharon, I'm not your own puppet that your dad gifted you on your birthday. I have my own friends; I can't let them go just because I'm in a relationship with you."
I didn't know how to respond to that, maybe he is right... I know I'm damn possessive but it's only for him. I can't share him. Tears had formed in my eyes, blurring my vision.
"You know what, just forget it, it's been two years still you don't trust me. How many times I have told you that... I only love you, Sharon. Why can't you get that in your pea sized brain?" Turning, he shook me holding my shoulders. I stumbled back.
"I trust you Swayam. I do, It's just I'm scared." That time I was looking at the floor as that was the most beautiful thing in the world.
"Scared of what?" he voiced out, I could tell he was confused by my confession.
"Of losing you."
With that, I broke down, I cried in front of him. Without complaining, he slowly embraced me. Wetting his shirt, I cried more when he slightly kissed my head.
I did not know how much time had passed; when I opened my eyes, I was standing in my room, in the warm embrace of my Swayam. I looked up at his face to see him already staring at me with love.
"Sway..."
He silenced me by placing his finger on my lips, "There is no need to say anything,"
I went back to my favorite place in this world, in his warm, safe arms. People say love doesn't need reasons, but I will say that love needs reasons, but they just can't put finger on one. I smiled against his chest.
After some time, I felt that I was being carried away, he carried me to my bed, slowly putting me on the bed he lay beside me, snuggling into his chest, I hid my face from the world.
"Sleep Sharon, we will continue this fight tomorrow," he chuckled and hugged me tightly.
I haven't heard anything more on that day. I had already fallen into my dreamland where only swayam and I existed.
