Kiya Pov
Today was the day, the day I dreaded the most. It was 3 years ago today, my parents were celebrating valentine's day by going out to a fancy new restaurant that had just opened, as they stopped at the traffic lights, a drunk driver ran the red light and unfortunately rammed into their car, my dad died instantly as the truck hit his side, my mother was taken to hospital but also died a few, short hours later. Where was I, well I was hanging out with my brother, Ranveer who is my older twin by 2 minutes and 30 seconds and he doesn't let me forget it, we were also with our childhood friend KD who also lives next door to us. He lived next door to us ever since we were kids and we knew each other practically our whole lives. He is my brother's best friend; of course we're friends too, just not as close as he and my brother are friends. The thing is, even though KD is my brothers best friend he doesn't know all the details on how my parents died, he just knows that three years ago some drunk truck driver crashed into my parents car.
I got out of bed and did my normal morning routine, I opened my door the same time the guest bedroom door opened, more like KD's bedroom, he stays over at our house more than he stays in his own house he might as well live here. KD walks out of the room, but not after giving me a wink and started walking down stairs, yeah that's just a normal KD thing to do, flirt with every girl in sight, I rolled my eyes and started walking downstairs. As I got to the kitchen RanSh were already scoffing down cereal, I walked over to the granite kitchen counters and got to the cereal, I could hear snickers behind me, no doubt coming from those buffoons called boys, I got it but the cereal box was empty! I turned around knowing exactly who the culprits were.
The boy's started laughing hysterically; I just scowled, crossed my arms over my chest and looked away from them and looked back at the cereal box with a piece of what seemed like paper hanging out. I read it;
Happy Valentine's Day Kiya,
I hope today is the day you see what has always been in front of you.
- From Cupid
I wonder what that meant; I furrowed my eyebrows together in pure confusion, and I folded the note with a shrug and shoved it carelessly inside my school uniform. I grabbed my school bag and waited for RanSh to come out of the house. We got to school I gave them both a kiss on the cheek and headed to my locker. My best friend Juhi was leaning casually against my locker.
"Hey Juhi" I said fake smiling at her, it's not that I didn't like her, it's just the fact that today is the day my parents died so I'm not feeling too cheery today, but she didn't know that and I didn't intend on telling her anytime soon.
" Hey Kiya, Oh my gosh, you'd never guess what just happened" Juhi gushed out, that's another thing I was thankful for, that my best friend was oblivious to the tone of my voice as soon as she had something to tell me, well this better be important or I'm going to be late if she doesn't hurry up
"so you know Samar, the hot guy from the basketball team?" she didn't even give me five seconds to comprehend and understand what she was saying let alone to answer her question. I sighed silently as she continued. "Anyways, he asked me to go with him tonight for the Valentine's Day masquerade ball" she squealed, funny, I didn't even know there was a masquerade until now.
"Oh...umm...that's great news Juhi, but I got to open my locker to get my books, so can you move over a bit?" I asked kind of shyly. "Oh right, sorry" Juhi said as she moved over slightly and then she studied my face, why is she looking at me with that expression of hers? Do I have something on my face?
"Why are you looking at me like that?" "Your coming to the masquerade ball tonight, no 'ifs' or 'buts'" "Fine, I'll go, but only because you and I both know you were going to win the argument anyways" I stated and her face changed to an excited one. "I knew you would agree, even if you were forced, I already have a dress for us, I made them myself" she couldn't contain her excitement. I laughed shaking my head at the thought, I then opened my locker got my things and we headed in different directions, she went to textiles and I went to drama. I had this class with KD I met up with him at his locker, he wasn't here yet, I looked around and then I felt cool hands cover my eyes. Someone leaned towards my ear and I could feel their hot breath. "Guess who" the person whispered and I could hear it was a guy, a guy with a husky voice that belonged to KD.
"Hmm I wonder who it could be" I pretended to think placing my index finger on my lips. "Aha" I said raising my index finger in the air. I turned around and hugged KD, he hugged me back and we began walking to drama. "So," he started saying breaking the comfortable silence that filled the air. "Are you going to the masquerade ball?" he asked turning his head to me. "Yeah I am, with Juhi, but she's going with Samar, so I'm a third wheel, are you going?"
"Yes, I'm going, hey listen, if you don't want to be a third wheel with Juhi and Samar, do you want to go with me?" wow, Keshav Desai actually asked me, to be his date.
"Yeah okay, sure" I replied "Cool, I'll pick you up at 7 o'clock" he said smiling gleefully and I couldn't help smiling too. With that said he took my left hand and laced it with his big one, all though I wasn't sure it was subconsciously or whether it was because I was going with him to the masquerade ball , either way, my small hands felt...right with his, like it belonged there.

It was now lunch and I headed towards my locker to place my books in it, as I opened my locker a note fell out, I seemed to be getting notes lately. I opened the note.
Kiya,
To learn to love is to learn how to take a chance- this is said by someone who is awesome, which would be me Learn to take chances because that chance may never come again. Expect many more notes Ms Kiya gujral, this is only the beginning
-From Cupid
Again with this cupid guy, he seems arrogant; I mean the only person I know who would call themselves awesome is KD...no...It couldn't be... could it... could the person be KD? I did the same thing I did with the last note, fold it in and kept in my school uniform pocket, would there really be more notes? I shrugged off the feeling, slammed my locker shut and headed towards my group of friends which consisted of Ranveer, KD, Juhi and Samar there was also Yash, Piddi and Samart who were on the basketball team with Ranveer, KD and Samar. They were all sitting on the benches outside of the cafeteria. The only seats left were either next to Samart or KD. I chose to sit next to KD, only because Samart freaked me out a bit, he had piercings and was trying to flirt with me constantly, so I think KD was the safest option. "Hey guys" I said a little glumly while sitting down, I was still upset about today, Ranveer gave me a reassuring smile, he knew exactly what I was thinking and I sent him back one, well tried to, but I'm pretty sure it looked like a grimace. As I looked towards KD he gave me concerned look. he lowered his head down to my eye level giving me a look that said 'tell me now' I sighed deeply got up and walked away from our group, pretty sure KD was following me. I sat down on the grass and looked up into the sky until KD blocked my view and looked at me, I sighed again, patting the spot next to me on the grass. He sat down and looked at me again.
"What's wrong Chicklet?" KD said his voice barely a whisper yet I heard him. Today was the day I finally told Keshav Desai why I hate Valentine's day. As I told him all my bottled up emotions headed in different directions trying to find a way out and as I finished, I noticed KD's arms wrapped around me, my face on the crook of his neck, his shirt was probably drenched with my tears I had unleashed like a storm pouring down on everything in sight. He rubbed my back soothingly, I stopped crying and KD just held me, held me together so I wouldn't fall apart.
"I'm so sorry Chicklet, is this why you hate Valentine's Day?" he whispered through my hair, I meekly nodded not trusting my voice. I could feel him rest his chin on the top of my head.
"you know Chicklet, you shouldn't hate valentine's day because of what happened, my dad always used to say to me before he died that; Even though things might get hard, don't back down, try and don't give up, Son, when I die and I will one day, I want you to do one thing and that is to live life to its fullest and always remember, you can't say you lived till you have loved." I looked up at him he had a little smile, probably from the memory of his father. "He was a wise man KD" I whispered looking at him "and you're right, I shouldn't hate Valentine's Day because of what happened, but..." I looked away.
"What is it Chicklet?" Corey said calling me by my nickname that only he called me. "It's just that, what happens when I fall in love and then something happens to them, I couldn't take that KD, I really couldn't" I started to tear up again. "All you have to do is think of what's happening here and now Chicklet" He looked at me and kissed my cheek. He was right but I still couldn't stop thinking about what I said, it was true, I just don't think I could take another thing going bad in my life, I just don't know if I wanted to risk losing another loved one. As I got up I realized that KD had already left, he probably realized that I was deep in thought and left me to my own thoughts. I smiled at how considerate that was of him. I walked back to the group a small smile on my face. As I sat down next to KD he took my hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze, I squeezed back, looked at him and smiled, and he smiled back. I let go reluctantly looked down at the table and saw a note I looked at KD to ask if he did this but he was already in deep conversation with Samar about the basketball game coming up. I took the note it, read;
Kiya,
Make the risk, take the fall if it's meant to be, it's worth it all.
-From Cupid
I smiled at the note; ironically it seemed to reassure my thoughts about taking risks earlier. As I was heading towards my locker at the end of the day, someone knocked into me making all my papers and books fly everywhere, as I was picking up my books I saw the retreating figure in the distance, great, the person knocks me down but can't help me get back up, wonderful. I saw a white note on the ground.
Kiya,
You probably want to know who I am; well here is your chance, meet me at the dance at 11:11 o'clock at the tent.
-From Cupid
I smiled; finally I get to see the person who has written me all these notes. I opened my locker to find a single red rose. And a little note attached;
Chicklet,
I'll see you at 7 o'clock.
-From KD
I smiled; KD seemed to make me do that a lot today. Later, Juhi came over my house, we got ready for the ball but Juhi was getting picked up at 6 o'clock rather than 7 o'clock. She had curled my wavy dark brown almost black hair and added a lilac purple hair brooch. I had a long, flowing lilac dress and dark purple heels. Juhi had straightened her usual black hair, had on an ocean blue dress that reached her knees and light blue heels. All in all, she created two stunning dresses.
Samar came at 6 o'clock sharp, nice to know Samar is punctual and with that Juhi left and I waited for the time I had to go down stairs and leave the house. There was a knock on the door and I became nervous, I heard the door open and a few muttered voices that were obviously KD and Ranveer talking but that abruptly stopped as soon as I descended the stairs, KD's mouth was wide open and I smiled which was hopefully breathtakingly beautiful, I guessed it was because as soon as I smiled KD stopped gawking and smiled back. I came down the stairs and as soon as I did Ranveer had his camera out and took a picture of me, KD came, gave me a single red rose and kissed my cheek, not without Ranveer took a picture of that happening. A blush came and quickly rose in my cheeks and KD leaned in and whispered;
"Now your cheeks can be the same colour as your rose" KD said with a slight smirk, a blush came again and he chuckled quietly. We soon got to the dance and everyone was watching us. We came to the dance floor, KD bowed and put his mask on, I did the same, and we danced the night away. I checked the time and it was 11 o'clock, KD had just left to get some punch, I decided I should go and look for cupid, so I headed out into the cold night. The cool air brushed along my skin and I breathed in. I walked around and soon saw some tea lights in jars surrounding the tent, I gasped, noone has done that for me before. I walked towards the stall, my heart pounding in my chest and my hands shaking and sweating, even in the cool night. As I walked closer and closer towards the tent, I saw a figure, a man's back was turned away from me, he only looked a few inches taller than me and as I walked on the gravel, my heels making a crunching sound beneath my feet, no doubt the man heard that. He turned around and I was shocked.
"KD?" he smiled as soon as I realized that HE was cupid.
"Surprised?" KD said smiling. "B...but how...the notes?" I said not really making a complete sentence but I was sure KD understood what I meant to say. He nodded. "I've liked you ever since I could remember Chiclet, this year I decided I would tell you, what better day then Valentine's Day. So I thought I would be cupid and send you notes, the group helped me out." "What do you mean?" "well I asked if Juhi if she could make you a dress for the ball and she gave me your locker combination so I could put the notes and the rose inside, then this morning I asked RV if he could have more cereal today so you would have none and I could put the note in the cereal box. At lunch I left you because you were thinking no doubt about what we had talked about so I wrote the note and quickly placed it there so you could see it. Before school finished I asked Piddi to bump into you and also place the note there sorry about that. And finally the tent, everyone helped me out to set up, that's why I asked Juhi and Samar had to leave earlier." He finished and looked into my eyes, at that moment, looking into his eyes I noticed something, I liked him too. I smiled and leaned in and so did he, we kissed and sparks flew. As I opened my eyes KD was already retreating and I looked into my hand a note was there.
Kiya Gujral,
I love you
-From Cupid
