TejRan - Coincidence or Destiny

Chapter 7 - Blast from the Past

Karan was dreaming in his sleep about Tejasswi.

He was pinning her to the wall, telling her how she makes him crazy and kissing her.

He opened his eyes with a twitch.

'Was it only a dream because it seamed too real! '

Lost in visions of this happy prospect, Karan woke up with a pretty great hangover. He saw a glass of orange juice and an aspirin for his headache lying on the side table. His head was aching from last night.

He tilted his head and saw his dream being actually the memory of last night.

Tejasswi was sleeping peacefully beside Karan on his bed.

Karan sat down with a jolt. While he stared at her looking so beautiful even in the sleep, he recalled the last night events.

He called her last night, she came to his house and he kind of told her how he felt about her. Also they kissed for the very first time last night. He smiled and he started blushing at that thought.

Tejasswi felt his eyes glaring at her and woke up covering herself with the comforter.

"Hi Tejasswi! Nice meeting you here on my bed for a change." Karan smirked. He broke the awkward silence between them .

"Goodmorning to u too sir. Don't think so highly about yourself. I came because you were drunk and alone. I thought to help you."

Tejasswi was sure he doesn't remember him talking about his feelings for her, neither he remembered the kiss nor what he said to her. She was too scared to make him recall. What if he didn't mean those words!!

"Ofcourse!! Thank you. You were a great help last night." Karan said to her.

Karan was not sure to talk about last night events. What if she tells him that last night was nothing but a mistake.

He couldn't risk being heartbroken. May be she needs some time. He can't expect her accepting Karan's feelings. She most probably needs time to think about it.
Better to go with the flow.

Both Karan and Tejasswi knew that whatever happened last night was true to their hearts but their minds were too scared for being rejected by one another. They both tried to change the topic to lessen the tension in the air.

Karan asked her that would she like a cup of tea.

"I can never say no to a tea Karan. I wish to see your culinary skills as well." Tejasswi smiled at him.

Karan was leaving the room when Tejasswi asked him to give her some of his clothes to change. He opened his cupboard and let her select his t shirt and PJ's.

She went into the bathroom to change into a comfortable piece of clothing.
She couldn't help but took a deep breath as those clothes had his scent. For a second her mind went back to the kiss.
Her subconscious was rolling eyes at her.

'Ugghh i need to stop thinking about last night. What's happening to me? It was a mere kiss. It probably meant nothing to him. '
Tejasswi told herself.

She came out of the bathroom to see Karan ready with a cup of tea for her.

Karan kept looking at her. His clothes were too big but it looked perfect on her. As if she belongs in his attire.

He realised that he's been staring at her when she took that cup from his hand.

"Karan take an aspirin too for your hangover. Since you are safe and sound, i ll bid you goodbye." Tejasswi said.

She rushed back to her home while Karan was still thinking about last night.

Tejasswi tried not to make any noise to wake up anyone when she entered her home.
She managed to sneak into her room but saw her friend sitting there.
