Chapter 35

Nandini's pov

I woke up to find myself in darkness yet again but before I could freak out I realized I had arms around me. I looked down to see manik's arms wrapped around my waist relaxing my body a little

I felt his chest right against my back so I turned around to face him, his arms still around me loosely.

His face lit up because of the moonlight that was coming in from the balcony. His beautiful face, I swear he has the most handsome face I have ever seen. It was only 2 in the morning but I couldn't fall back a sleep so instead I decided I will watch him

Creepy, I know, very very creepy to watch someone you are falling for while he is sleeping but there was something about his face that calms me down, he is so sweet to me.

I caressed his cheeks gently making him lean closer, even in his sleep he is so responsive to my touch, almost like he knows it's me. when I told him about everything well part of it yesterday he took it so well

it was hard to tell him, to relives these memories again but it felt so much better to have it out, to know he was there and he will always be there for me like I will be here for him forever

wrapping an arm around his that was on my waist I smiled looking at the moo outside, shinning bright as ever.

"Why are you up baby?" I hear his husky voice as he pulled me closer by my waist

"Hiiii sleepy head" I whisper earning a chuckle from him

"Sleepy head? Baby its probably 1"

"Its 2" I correct

"Right, are you okay? Did you have a nightmare" he asks

"No, im okay. Its just I think I slept a lot" he hummed pulling me closer

"You are so handsome Manik" I whisper as our noses touch

"Thank you" his sleepy voice

i caressed his arm that rested on me, it was such a peaceful moment for me, I like being around Manik and I mhm okay so I am a 100% falling for him and I don't want to stop.

he opened his eyes for a quick second and kissed my lips laying his face in my neck making me smile. I like when he searches for comfort in me.

Every single time he has practice, he holds my hands and rests his forehead on mine taking deep breaths because he is stressed. every time he is doing chemistry stuff he looks up from the Chem textbook to look at me to see if I was still here watching him.

He is mhm he is so perfect for me, to me. He is just perfect. He makes me want to love, he makes me want to be with him. I love his kisses, his hugs, his sweet teases.

last night before we slept he mhm he gave me this goodie basket to ask me to the homecoming dance we have in our college, he didn't have to but he got me this adorable little teddy bear, sweets, candy, just everything he knows I like even though I had said yes prior

"Love, you are thinking a lot, please just relax" he whispers

"Im sorry, I was just thinking about you and us"

"I can tell baby"

"How" I chuckle

"You have this adorable smile on your face that you get every time you think about us" he whispers in my neck making me smile

"Sleep" I caress his back as he turns o lay on his stomach beside me, face in-between my chin and shoulder

"Hmmm" he hums but opened his eyes to look at me
