I felt so warm under his embrace, it was so comforting. I wanted to stay like that for the rest of my life.
He pulled away from me slowly and I sat properly and quickly turned away so he could not see my face.
"Don't be so hard on yourself Aarav, it's okay to be venerable sometimes and cry" he moved and sat where he could see my face, "it's okay to let down your guard this doesn't make you weak, you don't have to hide your face so people won't know that you cried okay"
I just looked at him not knowing what would be the right thing to say, " I don't know what to say"
"You don't have to, now do you want to go back or do you want to go somewhere else where you can relax?"
I thought about going back and relaxing as I didn't have the energy to go back and pretend to be excited but I couldn't leave Nick alone especially when this was the most important day of his life, if I didn't go inside then nick will surely kill me tomorrow even if I told him about my breakdown. Also staying here would be better as I'd get to record Kanishk's embarrassing videos, I'm sure he will do something random and weird and make a fool of himself.
"I think..we should go back to Nick..he will uh feel bad," I said and stood on my knees adjusting my clothes while Nikum sat in front of me cross-legged, he had a little put on his face and was looking somewhere else and I could see his fine jawline, it made my heart skip a beat and wanting to kiss his beautiful face but I had to control my urges.
"You sure? I think he will understand if you don't want to st-"
"No I want to attend this concert and if I don't then I'll regret it so let's go"
He stood there looking at me for a while and then moved. I followed him, I could hear screams and music blasting as we were near the stairs. As we got near the noise got louder and louder and I felt a little excited. I liked Divine's music so this concert was going to be fun. We went inside the stadium and somehow got through the crowd and went to the front row where nick was with some girls and guys, he was talking to them and laughing. It made me feel weird that maybe if he saw me then he'd get upset and not be able to enjoy.
Nikum stood with some guys there who I assumed were his friends and all of them and I mean All Of Them were hot. I tapped on his shoulder and he turned around to face me. He was grinning ear to ear, I'd never seen him this happy not even when he got to know that maths was an optional subject in college.
"AARAV!" He screamed as it was the only way he could talk, "I JUST MADE A DECISION"
"WHAT DECISION? Don't TELL ME YOU ARE PLANNING TO BECOME A SINGER-"
"IM GAY"
Shock would be an understatement to define what I felt, I didn't know what I should say to him I stood there for a full minute preparing my speech to tell him that I was glad he told me that and felt comfortable sharing that with me-
"IM GOING TO MARRY VIVIAN! I WILL-"
"VIVIAN? WHO IS THAT? KANISHK YOU CAN'T JUST MARRY ANYONE WHO SAYS THEY LOVE DIVINE OKAY THAT IS STUPID"
"DUDE" nick came a little closer to me looking as if I have said the most disappointing thing, "VIVIAN IS DIVINES NAME, I CANT BELIEVE YOU DIDN'T KNOW-"
Our conversation was cut by a scream from the crowd, we looked towards the stage to see none other than Divine himself, my heart skipped a beat when I saw him I couldn't believe that was real. I turned to look at Nick who stood there in shock and then fainted luckily I was there to hold him and-
"No no I can't faint I need to see everything," nick said and stood properly while rubbing his eyes and smoothing his clothes. First, he screamed for a full minute then got silent then screamed again, that happened for a while and in between he started to laugh which scared me luckily Nikum was with his friends and everyone around us was too busy to notice us.
"HOW IS MY GULLY GANG!" Divine screamed in the mic while the whole crowd screamed at the top of their lungs including me, by them I stopped looking at nick as I wanted to enjoy too. Everything looked so grand. The stage was huge well it was a concert but anyways, a few guys were standing near the band dressed in full hip hop style, I don't know how else to define it, the guy who was playing the drum was looking the coolest with his long curls wearing a bandana and black glasses. Divine started the concert with sher aaya, I went crazy as it was one of my favourite songs.
At one point I looked at Nick who was looking at divine in awe, he looked adorable so I clicked his picture, suddenly he started to jump and then he stopped, now nick was crying and then he was singing the lyrics while crying and started to dance in between while crying. He was doing everything at once he was ready to roll on the floor.
Divine was interacting with the crowd and nick was praying with everything he had that D would notice him which I thought was impossible.
"Okay now everyone ssshhh," he said into the mic and everyone got silent after a few seconds, see I hope you know when I say everyone it does not include Kanishk. He was screaming continuously and the people around me started to give me looks and I was not even the one doing weird things. I had to put my hands around nick's mouth to stop him from screaming which he stopped eventually. I looked at Nikum for help who quickly looked away as soon as he saw me so I had to handle nick alone now.
Divine finished his last song and everyone was throwing hearts and flowers on the stage and it looked so beautiful. He was smiling and waving at everyone and even talked to some of the fans, I wished that I was one of them but I wasn't that lucky. Suddenly he took some paper heart from the floor and came to our side of the section, I swear it took everything in me to stop nick from running from here to the stage.
Now, something happened that I had never imagined. Divine came near our side and as we were on the first row we could touch his hand and we did, I'm never going to wash mine now, he extended the paper hearts and I thought he would throw them on us but he bent and extended his hand to nick and told him that "this is for you"
Nick was standing there frozen while the crowd was screaming jealously including me, slowly nick extended his hand and took the heart and shook Divine's hand.
Now he looked at me and dramatically fainted,
"After I die tell my parents to give all my property to this man""You mean the one that is in my name instead of yours?"
