"Thanks for the movie and the dinner. I had a really good time," I turned to Simon's side and gave him a small smile after we pulled up in front of my building."Are you sure? I felt like you didn't enjoy it much and you were mentally somewhere else," he stated with a small chuckle and I noticed him, shaking his leg in nervousness."Ummm....this is my first date and I guess I was just nervous. I'm really sorry if I ruined your evening," I apologised in a sincere tone and he shook his head lightly."You don't have to apologise at all. I should have made this date more interesting and exciting for you." He let out a small pout and I felt so bad. It would have been the best date if I had put my heart and soul into it and I didn't want him to be hard on himself."It was the best first date, Simon.""Well, I might actually believe you since there was literally no competition." He joked, making

"So you guys didn't kiss?" Trina almost yelled, earning a few questioning glares from the people around us at the cafeteria."No and keep your voice down.""I thought you liked him, babe. What's wrong?" she asked with a small pout and I decided to tell her everything that happened last evening."Aww, poor Simon. It's not your fault that you didn't feel it,babe but wait a minute, I thought you hated Ray. Wasn't he being mean to you and irresponsible?" She questioned again, pushing her silver blond hair away from her face and continued to eat her sandwich. "Yeah but he is also irresistible..." My voice trailed off and I didn't meet her gaze. I continued to play with the ends of my hair, twisting it between my fingers."Oh my God! You like him!" She exclaimed with a huge smirk plastered on her face and I rolled my eyes at her response."Yeah I do but I told him it won't work out between us just this morning." "Let me guess, h

"I always sleep on the left," he announced as soon as we entered my room and I raised my eyebrows, giving him a murderous glare."Jeez! Alright." He raised his arms in defense, letting out a low chuckle and chose to sleep on the right while I lay down next to him, making sure that I was almost near the edge of the bed and not even my t-shirt was touching any part of his body. I turned off the lamps and complete silence filled the room except for our heavy breathing."You know, you might actually fall off the bed if you move any further." He laughed, making me scowl and I realised that he was actually enjoying this."Just shut up and sleep before I kick you off my bed.""Feisty. I like it." He purred and I felt him shifting beside me. I turned to my side to find him already looking at me. Though the lights were off, the faint moonlight, shone through my window, enough for me to make out his facial features

After talking a nice long bath, I came outside the bathroom, wearing just my bathrobe and slowly tiptoed towards the bed. He was still sound asleep but I placed the duvet above his face so that he wouldn't be able to see me changing, just in case he wakes up in the middle or something.I headed over to my wardrobe and grabbed a pink lehanga that resembled the closest to a saree and started to wear it. The blouse had a sweetheart neckline with silver embroidery designs and it was completed netted. The skirt was a beautiful shade of pink that flowed down my waist and it almost felt like I was wearing a ball gown or something.God, this was the most Indian I've felt since I came here. Finally, I grabbed my netted dupatta and wrapped it across my chest, making tiny folds to the cloth and secured it with a pin to make sure it stays in place over my shoulders and took the other free end of the cloth and tucked it insid

We rode up the elevator in complete silence and my clothes were partially dry now but still sticking to my body. I was glad that he gave me his jacket because I was still freezing like hell. I peered at him from the corner of my eyes and noticed that he looked stressed and worried, his clothes were also wet and I wondered if he was cold too.As if he read my mind, he put an arm around my shoulders, pulling me closer towards him and I instantly felt the warmth that I was craving for. I looked up to see his face but he showed no emotions and I couldn't make out anything from his eyes too.What happened with his dad?I wanted to ask but I decided not to poke the bear again and kept chewing on my lower lip, thinking about my near-death experience. I could have been raped or kidnapped and tortured or even killed. I should probably thank him."Thank you for finding me."Silence.
