Naina POV:

I woke up feeling like my stomach just dropped. I have to do this today. If I don't then I might as well say goodbye to two people who seemingly care about me...a lot. And It's not that I wanted to say no, I just couldn't get it out of me. I panicked....really badly... and it might be best if I said sorry for that.I should probably say sorry for that.

I didn't have any classes today so I could go in the morning to their dorm and tell them everything. I took my time to get changed and have a light breakfast. I needed to gather all my thoughts and prepare what I'm going to say even though I know that when I start talking to them, I'll get nervous and just stuff up. All of the perks that come with being someone who isn't that confident.of being someone who isn't that confident.

I checked my phone, and took my sweet time responding to a couple of messages from family and then made my way out. It took only a couple of minutes to get there but the weather felt just a bit too chilly. I suddenly regretted not bringing a cardigan with me.. When I walked up to their dorm room, the nerves kicked in.
Breathe Naina....Breathe. You got this. It's just Abhi and Aman.

I knocked on the door and waited for a couple of minutes and then tried again. It  wasn't even that early in the morning. It's 9am and I know that neither of them have any morning classes today. In front of me stood Abhi, in a rumpled, half asleep state. His hair fell carelessly over his forehead, sticking out at odd angles, clearly indicating that he had just woke up.

"Oh! Uh, hey Naina!" he says, rubbing the back of his head. His eyes were half closed, and he looked like the light was hurting him on every level. "What are you here for?"

Without saying a word, I brushed past him, glad to be in the warmth of the room. It smelt like leftover pizza, and too much cologne. "Is Aman awake?" I asked, in what I hoped to be a calm voice.

"Oi, Aman! Wake up!" He said urgently, smacking a pillow in his face.

"Dipshit, what do you want? The sun isn't up, let me live," Aman groaned, rolling over and pulling the blanket around himself tighter. He dipped his head under the blankets like a five year old, and I could make out his curved silhouette under the blanket. What. An. Idiot.

"Dude, Naina's here! Get up!" Abhi hissed. He sent me a panicked glance, as if I was a bomb ready to go off.

"SHIT!" Aman shouted, throwing his covers off and bolting upright. Abhi walked backwards until he was seated on his bed. I grabbed a chair near the table, spun it around, and sat down facing them.

"So..." I took a deep breath, preparing myself and trying to organize my thoughts. Aman sat there, doe-eyed. It was quite cute, actually. Wait, this wasn't the time. Stop that.

"So," I began again. "I'm sorry I ran off, like, Abhi you know I'm not good with these types of things right? I just can't, you know, do this, and like, uh." The words tumbled out of my mouth at an alarming rate, and Abhi looked confused.

"Hey Naina, breathe, and start over," Aman said gently.

"Yeah, do that," Abhi nodded.

"Okay. Here goes," I took one last deep breath to compose myself and tried again. "So, when you guys apologized I ran off. I really shouldn't have done that, but I got a bit overwhelmed. You guys scared me a lot when you were yelling, and I didn't think you'd show that much emotion in the opposite type. You get what I'm saying, right?" Two nods. "Both of you are always so cheerful and happy. Yeah, so I hope you guys don't hate me about it. I'm not very good with this, you know? I never have been," I say, casting a glance to Abhi. He gives the tiniest nod, and I know he understands. "When you guys were fighting, it was honestly terrifying. It was like this side of you I never wanted to see and I just felt terrible that it was over me, of all people. I'm not worth fighting over." They both opened their mouths, but I didn't let any sound come out and I continued. "Abhi, I've never seen you that mad, not even when your mom accidentally shredded your tickets to Maroon 5. So I was pretty scared. And I didn't want to tell you anything else because I thought you'd react in the same way and I didn't want that." It was like guilt was washing over Abhi's face by the bucketload. I cleared my throat. "You were both hitting each other, and it looked like it really hurt, and it was just really scary. But, I'm really happy and relieved that you guys apologized, in such a heartfelt way, and it was just so nice. Ignoring you guys was really hard and I'm so sorry I ignored you, but you have to understand why," my words getting quieter. "Thank you for trying so hard over me."

"Wait, so, does this mean you've forgiven us?" Abhi blurted out, his face hopeful.

"Dipshit!" Aman groaned. "Don't you know the first thing about talking to girls? Because let me tell you! That's! Not! How! You! Do! It!" He threw his pillow in the general direction of Abhi.

"What do you mean?!" Abhi asked confused, snatching the pillow out of the air.

I couldn't help it, I started giggling. Their heads snapped to where I sat, my shoulders shaking. I slapped my hand over my mouth, looking at the idiots. That's how they handled that mess? I felt all of the world's problems lifting off of my shoulders and I started laughing. I started laughing so hard my eyes started watering. My stomach began hurting, and I curled over, my laughs filling the room. I looked up, and they had smiles creeping onto their faces. I didn't even know why I was laughing, but it was rippling through me, the stresses from the past week becoming a distant memory. Soon, the boys had started chuckling, and it built up until they were laughing as well.

"Why is she laughing? What's so funny?" Aman wheezed out, curled up on his bed, clutching his stomach.

"I don't know man," Abhi laughed out, his deep laugh melodic to my ears.

By now my stomach had gotten to the point where it was going to burst, and I bit my hand in an attempt to stop laughing. I fanned my eyes, trying to dry the tears out, and slowly reduced myself to small hiccups of laughter. The boys were in similar states. I wiped the tears out of my eyes and sat there with a smile. It honestly felt like everything was fine now. Abhi stood up and walked up, bent over, and gave me a hug. I stood up to give him the hug, and Aman joined in.

"Yes, I forgive you," I said into Abhi's chest. "Just, don't do it again. Or I won't talk to you. Ever."

"I promise...never again" Abhi whispered. He rested his chin on my head, giving me a little squeeze.

We separated from each other. There was no tension in the air at all. It felt great.

"So...got any plans for the rest of the day?" I smiled at them. And that is what happened. For the rest of the day, Abhi, Aman and I just chilled. It was fun, there was no tension and it ended in us making a bunch of plans that would fill up some of the days for the rest of the months. Finally, everything seemed to be in place and I was content.
