"Im sleeping here today, don't go once im a sleep, stay here and I trust you so you can use the blankets" she said looking up at me and I nodded putting my legs in the blanket."So what did you wanna discuss" she asked and before I could say anything my phone rang, it was alia cause I forgot to call her
"Pick it up or she will come here to hunt you down" nandini said moving closer and putting her head on my shoulder
"Hello"
"Hi manik, I hope I didnt disturb you", "no, whats up alia, sorry I forgot to call you"
"No its fine, can we talk right now or"
"Ya we can talk" I said and looked at nandini who put her head next to the phone to listen making me hide my smile
"Can we go to the ball together" she asked and I dont know how to say no nicely, "um alia, I actually" before I Ould finish she inturpted me, "manik, I really want to go with you, we dont have to be a couple or anything just as friends" she said and I didnt know what to do
"Actually alia I have a date already to the ball which is why I said no, im sorry" I said and nandini looked pissed off becasue she moved away, "oh okay, sorry manik, I didnt know about you dating someone" she said "umm ya sorry alia I like keeping things private" I said and she said bye as I cut the call.
"Who the fuck are you dating asshole" the first thing she says and I chuckle, "did you find anything on my phone" I asked and she shook her head.
"I didnt, not even in your texts so who the hell are you dating" she went through my texts wow great
"Im not dating anyone nandini" "then who are you taking to the ball and private seriously you didnt even tell me" I could feel her temper raising but she looks adorable jealous
"I was talking about you, Im taking you to the ball" I said and she shut her mouth the second she realized what I said
"Nandini, you dont need to be jealous, I have never had eyes for anyone so dont get too worked up okay" "how is that my fault, you didnt even ask me to go to the ball with you and im not jealous" she said laying her head back down on my shoulder
"Well will you please go to the ball with me" I asked puling her closer and she nodded
"Manik" she called and I just hummed.
"You wont hurt me right" she asked looking up at me
Nandini's pov
"You wont hurt me right" I asked him, I just wanted to know I cant be broken again because if I break this time I wont be able to glue the pieces back
"Nandini i could never, not even in my wildest dreams, its difficult I know but thats why I wanna take it slow. I dont know about you but I am developing something in my heart for you" he said and wait does he mean like. Friend or a sister cause he is cabir's friend
"Like a sister" I questioned and he screamed "fuck no, I could be anything but your brother" he said and I laughed at him
"Relax I dont wanna be your sister anyways even though it would be fun to have two brothers but id rather not be your sister" I said and his face relaxed
"Can I tell you something" I asked and he nodded "but you have to promise not to get all cocky and arrogant" "promise" he said
"The last time I felt something for someone was first year with sahil and its been five years since I have even felt my heart beating again. I had my walls up for five years becasue of him, because every time someone approached me I saw sahil in them and I cant break again so I never even said yes or payed attention to them. Then you walked in like the asshole you are being all nice and things, I tried being rude cause thats how guys run away but you stayed, well you had no choice cause you live here" I said and I dont know why I said it but it felt nice getting it out there
"You know what nandini" he said and I looked up at him resting my chin on his shoulder "what" I said
"I had a choice baby, I chose to stay because I wanted to. Even though its been only a few days you mean a lot to me you really do and I am staying forever wether you like it or not" he said making me smile
"I would suggest thinking about it because if I fall for you not that im saying I am falling for you but if I do then you arent going anywhere and I mean it, I will even drag you out of fucking hell if I have to" I said and he just smiled puling me close
"It would be heaven baby girl" he said pecking my forehead, "and I will make sure you are treated like a princess" he continued and I couldn't help myself from smiling ear to ear.
"Sleep nandini" he said and I didnt want to, for the first time in forever I felt like I needed someone to be there if I fall
"You'll be here if I fall" I asked and he tilted my chin up and pecked my nose "always baby girl"
"You know bhai and navya will be happy knowing this" I said "knowing what' he slid down in the blankets with me still on top of him
"Knowing I like you" I said and he nodded "well they wanted us to have a future together and honestly I see why they thought that" "they brought you here to date me I asked and he shook his head
"Cabir said he thought we needed each other but see he was right" he said and I looked up at him "no nanidni he didnt force me to, my feelings towards you are my own, they arent influenced by anyone or anything" he said before I could even ask
"Baby girl close your eyes and off to sleep" he said caressing my hair as one of his hand rested on my neck caressing my cheek and hair while his other hand clutched my waist lightly. if a few days ago someone would tell me that I would end up falling for this idiot I would have laughed in their face. I am falling for manik faster then water moves but he is different then sahil. I like him a lot and I need to talk to navya about this.
"Goodnight manik" I whispered falling a sleep, "goodnight my love" is the last thing I heard before I fell a sleep in his arms.
