Rai's POV

"You know that guy could have easily taken advantage of you." Liam scolded on our ride back to school.

I was silent for a second fidgeting my fingers.
"I was doing just fine, I can take care of myself y'know." I fired back not daring to stare at him.

His grey eyes turned darker as he started at me.

"Fuck you can't get away from a pervert like him Estrella." He shouted and I could hear the anger in his voice.

I just stared at him at this sudden outburst.
"I just can't risk losing someone else." He said his voice faltering as he passed a hand through his hair his eyes not leaving the road ahead.

"I'm sorry," I finally said realizing that I had hurt him.

"I am so madly in love with you that not having you in my life is just unimaginable." He said gazing at me before looking at the road.

"You do not know everything about me but you should know that I am yours, forever, coz I never wanna stop gazing at the stars." I said, my voice faltering as I intensely stared at him, tears lingering in my eyes.

My heart almost jumped out of my chest when the sport car came to a sudden halt, the tyre screech almost deafening. It was at night and we were probably the only ones on the road as others were still at Vixen.

"Damn Estrella." He said taking his hands off the steering wheel and his ash gray eyes off the road and right into my ocean blue ones.

I could see the hidden passion underneath his eyes that were now a shade darker.

I felt electricity run through my whole body as he lifted his hand to my head and removed my tiara and laid it on the back seat. I gave in and crossed over to the driver's seat as I lifted my dress a bit so as to allow me sit on his lap, each leg at his sides.

As I lifted my hand to remove his crown, I felt out lips touch full force as he wrapped his hands around my waist. Out audible breaths were in sync when we finished making out as we smiled at each other, only the two of us knowing the meaning of our smiles...

"Omg you are finally here!" Lex giggled when we saw Silantoi.

She had been gone for almost a week and we had all missed her. We all engulfed her in a hug before letting go when she complained she couldn't breathe.

"So how is everything back home?" I questioned as we made our way to the abode.

"Everyone is great we just have to attend my elder brother's coronation this weekend." She stated with a smile while fixing the stray strand of her hair

"We?" Sasha questioned with a confused expression.

"Yeah, the school principal allowed me to invite my friends since it's on a weekend and we wouldn't miss any classes." She clarified.

"Wait, does that mean we are going to Kenya?!" Lex erupted with a huge smile clearly excited.

"Yes," Silantoi replied with her usual calmness.

"Is it cold there, how many sweaters should I pack?" Lex asked Silantoi through the phone, she was basically hyperventilating at this point.

"Don't overthink it Lex just pack like you normally would." Silantoi answered.

I just stared at her amused, I truly was lucky to have her as a roommate.
