.....THUD ....Came a loud noise of our cla.s.s door .
Aron .... , Austin looked furiously at him .
Oh my .... prezzz, I"m so sorry , I"ll be careful from next time , Aron replied .
I met Aron when I partic.i.p.ated in Q.A.E.S compet.i.tion . He was one among the five members who were selected for elocution . He is very naughty and always disturbs the cla.s.s , even though he is a last bencher he always answers correctly when ever our teachers ask him any question related to the topics .
What were you guys doing closing the door , he asked Austin with a wicked smile on his face.
You must"ve guessed it by now , Austin replied calmly .
Did they forget that I"m still standing here , I thought .
Are you intrested in being a member of student council ?, Aron diverted the topic .
I never gave a thought about it and I have zero knowledge in it , I replied .
I"ll be there with you just let me know if you are intrested , Austin said softly which made me blush .
After a while the other students started to come .
Hey , Justin said looking around .
Rachel is suffering from fever , I said .
Oh , he replied .
Missing her ? , Aron teased Justin .
Aron and Austin are the only guys who knew that he liked Rachel , he never told them but at the same time he didn"t deny the fact that he likes her .
Justin ignored to what Aron told , and spoke about yesterday"s cricket match .
I wanted to spend more time with Austin ,but I knew that it was impossible for that to happen , I went and sat in my bench reluctantly .
I was alone since Rachel wasn"t with me but during lunch hour I sat with Justin and Austin . It was the first time I ever had my lunch with Austin . We couldn"t talk much but still I I felt good .
Justin told me that he would come with me in the evening while we were having our lunch .
After the school Justin and I were walking and saw Austin and Aron near the entrance gate .
Wow , it"s quite shocking , said Justin to Austin .
Everyday Austin"s father dropped him to school in the morning and his driver used to pick him up in the evening . I never saw Austin coming by bus . Most of the students comes to school by their own vehicles . But our parents wanted us to use public transportation . They wanted us to know the value of money and time .
Dad told me that the driver wouldn"t come today to pick me up , Austin replied hoa.r.s.ely .
Really ?, Justin asked him skeptically.
I"m hungry , Shall we go somewhere and eat ? , Aron interrupted .
That sounds great , I said in excitement .
It was Aron who led us to a restaurant and we followed him .
We ordered four plates of Manchurian noodles and four gla.s.ses of c.o.ke .
Since the time we came to the restaurant till we left those three handsome guys sitting in front of me didn"t leave a chance to tease each other .
I saw a different side of Austin , I"ve seen him talking and laughing before but it was mostly from a certain distance but this time I was sitting in front of him .
After coming out of the restaurant ,Aron told that he was going to Hidden hour, it is a gaming center. Most of the guys of my school goes there almost everyday and Aron was one among those guys .
Justin got tempted to what Aron told and said that even he wanted to go .
Sorry Jess , I have to go Justin said sheepishly.
Is she coming tomorrow ? , he asked before leaving to which I gave a nod .
I didn"t expect my cousin to leave me for some stupid game center.
Aron ....., Austin called .
I couldn"t hear what he asked him but after coming he said that there was a short cut to the bus stop .
He told me to follow him but the way we went wasn"t a short cut .
It"s a lonely place and takes more time to reach bus stop .
Even though I knew the way , I didn"t tell him that he was going in the wrong direction , I thought that I"d get more time to spend with him .
He was walking normally but I wasn"t able to catch up with him . His one step was equal to two long steps of mine . I tried walking faster but I couldn"t . After some time I finally succeeded walking next to him , it wasn"t because I walked faster but because he slowed down for me to walk next to him .
Our conversation started from our social home work and then it changed to history then universe , s.p.a.ce and finally aliens .
The way he was talking looked like he was casting spells on me to fall for him more and more . I wasn"t able to take my eyes off from him but whenever he looked at me I looked away .
As soon as we reached the bus stop I saw a bus coming our way and it was the bus which goes to the place where I stay , my house.
I told him that I"m taking that bus .
I was talking to him but he wasn"t even looking at me .
He took a piece of paper and a pen , he wrote something on the paper and handed it over to me .
Call me after reaching home , he said .
Sure , I replied after taking the paper in which he wrote his number .
I couldn"t stop thinking about the things that happened , a wide smile was plastered on my face since the moment I got into the bus .
_ _ ___ ___ __ __ _ __ _
I knew I was being a bad girl then by not telling that I knew the short cut but what else could I do , I was madly in love with him . I didn"t care about anything , all I wanted was to spend time with him .
