Hauntingly Beautiful (Completed)

Back To College

They came back from Chicago in evening and as soon as they entered their house, both of them showered and went to sleep. The flight had been tiring and last few days had been quite stressful for them. Next day they got ready for college and had their first argument of the day.

"Why?"

"Because I said so."

"Tine."

"Wat."

"You won't go anywhere Watson calls you."

"It's not like I want to meet him but it's regarding office work."

"No, that jerk will try to hurt you."

"I won't let him."

"No, it's not the question of whether you will let him or not. I'm worried about you."

"I know, Tine. It'll be okay. I won't let him hurt me again."

"I can't stand him being anywhere near you. "

"I'm not that same Wat anymore. I have strength to fight against him now. I have you."

"I can't help worrying about you. After everything you've told me, I want to kill that jerk."

"I understand that. Dont worry, Tine. Now that I have you I won't let anyone hurt us anymore."

As soon as they went to college, all eyes were on them. It was first time they were coming to college after their wedding. People were whispering and pointing at them but Wat and Tine were too lost in themselves to care about others. They're holding hands and talking about what to eat for dinner. They part ways to go their respective classes.

Tine sat down at his regular seat and was quite shocked to see people coming to talk to him. They wanted to know why had he married Wat.

"Are you being threatened?" One of the classmate enquired.

"What? No."

"Does he have any dirt on you?" Another one asked.

"Why the hell would you think that?"

"Maybe it's because of money." Helen (random classmate) hypothesized.

"What the hell are you guys talking about? " Tine asked exasperatedly.

"Why did you marry Sarawat? "

"Because I like him." Tine answered though it wasn't entirely true.

"It's because of that scandal, right?" Tanya asked.

"Scandal?" It took some time for Tine to remember why this all had started. He had completely forgotten about the photos of them that had gone viral. Before he could say something, teacher came into the class.

At lunch break, Tine called Wat to have lunch together in the cafeteria. Both of them stared at each other while picking at their food.

"I missed you." Wat whined.

"It has only been 4 hours since we have been apart." Tine giggled.

"It's too long. I wanna kiss you."

"WAT. We are in college right now."

"So what?"

"Well, it's not like those colleges they show in movies and books. We would be punished if we did anything like that in public."

"We have kissed before on campus."

"Thanks for reminding me. It was against my will if I must let you know and we weren't surrounded by people."

"Please."

"Wat, don't be childish. We will be home after 3 hours. We can do whatever we want then."

"Let's ditch classes."

"No way. I have already missed few classes because of wedding and all. I can't miss anymore. I am not smart like you. I need to study to pass."

"I'll teach you."

"I know what sort of teaching you'll do. Let me focus on my studies for now. And for goodness sake don't keep messaging me during the class."

"I was missing you. You didn't reply even once."

"Because I was studying. How the hell do you study if you are on the phone the entire time? "

"I manage. But I'm quite into the idea of tutoring you. "

"No. I'm well aware of what's going on in your head."

"We could roleplay. I'll be the teacher and you'll be the student then-"

"Do you want me to throw this soup on your face?"

"No. It'll be fun."

"Wat, you're sleeping on couch today."

"Okay, I won't say anything now. You are too shy."

They were busy bickering playfully when some students approached them.

"I heard you blackmailed someone to marry you Sarawat." Rehan mocked them.

"Get lost." Wat didn't even look at them. He was used to dealing with such students. He had his fair share of bullying in beginning. When he started fighting back they backed off.

"Don't be shy. We all saw those photos of you guys. You were quite enjoying yourself."

"You should leave." Wat said through gritted teeth.

"It's because of that scandal. I mean why would anyone marry you otherwise."

Entire cafeteria was silent, watching the drama unfolding right there. Tine had enough. He couldn't stand anyone insulting Wat.

"Let me clear something. Whatever was the reason for our marriage, it's the best thing that could have happened to us. We both are very much in love. Wat is such a genuinely warm person and you've absolutely no right to stand there and judge him. You don't know him at all so you don't get to pass comments on his lifestyle.

Reason for our marriage has nothing to do with you people so keep your opinion to yourself because shit like that isn't needed here. Just because your life is pathetic doesn't mean you should interfere in other people's life. Next time I hear you talk bad about us, I'll definitely break your bones.

Get lost, losers. We don't have any more time to waste." Tine clutched Wat's hand and they walked out of the cafeteria.

Wat stared at Tine in amazement, "Woah, that was hot."

"What?" Tine looked quizzically at him.

"I love it when you get all sassy. Angry Tine is quite sexy."

"Wat, stop joking. They deserved that."

"Let's skip classes for today."

"Okay."

"Huh? I thought you would protest."

"I need some alone time with you."

"Is it going to get R-rated? "

"Shut up, Wat."

"I love you."

"Love you too."
