The Boy With The Blue Eyes

Chapter-8

Arshi's POV

I am nervous. I have only been on a plane once before & never alone. Its just that I like trains better & I am not a huge fan of flying. Here I am,all alone in a plane flying to another continent. Yes! I am definitely scared.

"37,38,39....." I muttered under my breath,searching my seat. "40,41 BLUE EYES!" My heart leaped up. Those same blue eyes,that same blonde hair. "No,no smiling! Shut up heart." I said to myself as I blinked & turned,still looking for my seat. "Aahaa! 42!" I put my bagpack up & plonked down. Then I realised...I was sitting just across the aisle from the boy with the blue eyes. Why am I happy? I dont even know him. I took my headphones out & as I titled my head a bit to put them in, I got a good look at him. "He is beautiful." I thought,quickly turning my head back. I was feeling feelings I had long forgotten about,feelings I had worked hard to forget & now they were all back. I leaned back & closed my eyes as one of my favourite songs started to play.

"......And the tears come streaming down your face

When you lose something you cant replace

When you love someone but it goes to waste

Could it be worse......"

A thousand memories came rushing back to me.

*Memory*

"Why Rohan why??" My cheeks were stained from crying.

"Get away from me slut."

"Rohan! No! Wait!"

"I said GET AWAY!" He turned & slapped me.

*Memory*

"NO! NO! NO!" I screamed. I was standing in front of the bathroom mirror & the tears just would not stop. "He cant go away! NO!" I took a blade & slashed my wrists. I collapsed on the floor,sobbing.

*Memory*

Positive. Positive. Positive. I am pregnant. This cant be.

*Memory*

Abi & me coming out from the abortion centre. Our parents didnt know a thing.

I opened my eyes with a gasp. I was sweating. My heart was thumping in my cheast. I wanted to go home. I wanted to cry into my pillow. I looked to my right. The man beside me was fast asleep. I looked to my left & saw those shining blue eyes looking at me. I feel strangely comforted. I feel safe.
