This is what Belle was going through nowadays. The moment Keiran told her about his birthday, she was guilty of not knowing about it. She didn't even try to ask him before and the worst of all she didn't know what he wanted to get. She felt even worst when Belle thought about the things he did for her in the past. Even when she didn't tell him what was wrong with her, he figured out himself and helped her out.

"Relax Belle, you can do this.", Belle sighed and rubbed her hands together as she started walking inside the school building.

She was on a big mission today. She wanted to buy a birthday present for Keiran but the question was what exactly he wanted for his birthday.

Belle had been doing some deep thinking since last night but she didn't have a single clue. So today she decided to ask him indirectly if there was anything he wanted in life.

She entered the hallway, her eyes scanning for Keiran. The place was crowded but she easily found because of his tall figure and bright smile. Their eyes met and Belle immediately waved at him, showing her full set of teeth.

She pushed people away as she walked at him.

"Hi", she said. but the smile never left her face.

He stayed still for a minute, looking at her face in suspicion.

"Uhm-H- Hi"

'Why is she smiling like this? Something happened.'

Without saying a word, Belle grabbed his hand and dragged him along with her.

"Come on. Let's go to class, together."

Keiran slightly shrugged and a tiny smile appeared his lips.

'She held my hand so whatever is in her head it must be good.'

They sat down in the second row and within seconds their teacher entered and began her lecture.

Belle time to time looked at him and every time their eyes met she would smile. He returned the smile but he knew something was seriously wrong with her.

Belle head was occupied with thoughts. She was having a hard time trying to find a way to ask directly or even indirectly. She sighed a few times in frustration.

After some time, she looked at the time. Only a few minutes were left before the class would be over.

They came out of the class together and started walking towards the cafeteria. The corridor was a little crowded but they made their way between the students while heading in that direction Belle cleared her throat.

"Uhm Keiran.... is there anything you really want to have this year?", she failed to find a way to ask him indirectly.

Her question made Keiran stopped mid track and he started staring at her narrowing his eyes a little.

"Why did you ask that all of a sudden?"

Belle gave him a nervous smile. She was not going to tell him that she's actually looking for a birthday gift for him these days.

"I don't know. This question just popped in my brains, so I asked."

They were now inside the cafeteria and Keiran looked around for an empty table. Soon they settled after grabbing their food from the counter.

"Hmm..... you really want to know what I what?"

Belle nodded immediately, a small chuckle escaped his lips before speaking.
