The next five minutes were spend in making sure whether the people who accompanied me are busy or not. They should be busy enough to forget my existence, I checked Ria, Rony, etc, were dancing crazily. So I thought, this is the best moment to escape. I grabbed my clutch, cellphone and mask. Wait, did I mentioned that it’s having mask as a theme. Yeah, it was easy to identify people with their dresses. I headed towards the exit, I rushed out and to my surprise the corridor was empty. So I decided to carry on and move towards gaining my peace.
Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice, ” hey, lady searching someone?”. A cold shiver run down my spine, speak of the devil and devil was here. I didn’t dare to turn and have a look at him. I marched straight towards the exit of the building.
He yelled, ” wait, where are you going?”.
His voice was full of anger and hesitation. I didn’t bother to wait and kept walking. Soon, I was out in the campus, the campus was lit up beautifully and every thing was glowing with LEDs. Today was one of the famous events of the year, it was meant to be special. I slowed down a little, as I heard no one following me. Suddenly, I heard footsteps running towards me.
My heart started pounding hard, I started walking hurriedly, suddenly I felt somebody’s hand on my elbow. He dragged me back, and said with teeth gritted, ” What do you think you are doing? Huh”.
Frustration was clearly visible in his eyes, wait a minute, was he really there. I didn’t know how, but I was gawking at him, by seeing me drool over him, his eyes were getting uncomfortable. He was wearing a silver color mask, with his lips and one side of cheek bone in view.
Suddenly, I was full of anger, I started pushing him, yelling at him. I growled,” leave me! Now”. But his grip was never losing. He smirked and gripped me tighter. I started screaming, he covered my mouth immediately and dragged me to a nearby tree. He pushed on the tree trunk with my mouth still covered by his hand. I was still fighting him, his grip. He was looking every where except me.
Seeing my efforts getting harder, he growled, ” why are you like this? You are scared or angry whenever I come to meet you, you always need tranquilizers, yeah”.
He removed his hand, I was struggling to catch my breath, before I could say anything or do anything in defense he kissed me. When he started kissing me, I just lost and forget everything I had in mind. Automatically, my hands crossed his neck. He angled his face, to get a better access of me. I won’t say, I was not enjoying it, but I really missed this. The kiss felt never ending, until he broke it, for breathing some air. The climate was different, the air was different, I could feel our proximity in the air.
He said,” are you calm enough? Need more”. I couldn’t help but smile, suddenly it turned into a scowl.
He asked holding my hands above my head and pressing me to the trunk, ” are you mad at me, my lady?”.
I answered in a sly tone,” you are asking as if don’t know anything, I am asking about that letter and blood on it? I never thought that you would be this dangerous “.
He looked confused, he answered in a soft tone nearly a whisper, ” actually, it was my blood, it was accidentally..”. My expression turned into shock and guilt.
He smirked slyly and continued ” it accidentally fell on the letter when I was placing the rose for you, I am sorry, if I scared you..”
I heaved a sigh and said,” I was so scared for Jacob..” I immediately noticed his eyes getting dark maybe with anger.
I started without fear again,” I thought you harmed him, then I thought you harmed yourself and …” before I could say anything else, tears started coming from my eyes. I started sobbing heavily.
He dropped my hands and hugged me tight and replied, ” lady, stop crying, I am so sorry.. please stop crying, I came to see you. If you don’t want me it’s okay! I will leave now, please stop crying love, I can’t see you like this”.
He was satisfied hugging me close. Then he pushed himself away, started to leave.
I caught his fist, said,” don’t you have any date today? “.
He said with a hint of amusement in his eyes,” my date doesn’t want me, so going back to dorm”.
He was so serious, I let out a laugh and hugged him and asked,” wanna dance with me? Let me warn you I am not a good dancer”.
He let out a growl, ” I know everything, my lady, how you and..” before he could complete I dragged him towards the hall.
I was happy. I was relieved. We entered and just it was the correct time, Avi saw us, his face was turned into a bitter scowl. I ignored him and we both headed towards the dance floor.
He slowly slid his hand on my waist and pulled me close to him. I couldn’t help myself but blush badly. He noticed it and smiled . In all this trauma and misunderstanding, I forgot to notice him. It was the first time he didn’t covered himself, he wore a black tuxedo, he was a true gentleman in it. His hairs were long, black and falling over his forehead.
He was looking muscular, his wide shoulders making him look even more sexy. His muscles hard and tough enough to lift me. His lips were reddish and smooth as satin.
When he saw me gawking at me he asked,” I am getting nervous now, stop staring me, you are embarrassing me”. I chuckled slowly and we kept dancing for a while. It was fun and full of pleasure. But this time, instead of Cinderella, prince charming was about to vanish and I didn’t wanted him too.
