Nandini's pov

My head is throbbing, it feels like there is a whole ass elephant on my head just stomping. I do try to ignore the feeling of my head being crushed and try to go back to sleep because I was so comfy but I couldn't deal with it anymore

I open my eyes, the bright light instantly making me shut my eyes again, groaning a little I try hiding my face in my bed but I instantly stop feeling hardness making my eyes open

I turn a bit and get the worst shock of my life, I wasn't sleeping on a mattress, I was sleeping in Manik's arms, yeah the manik I hate, the manik who is my enemy, the manik who hates me, oh my lord.

His arms around me, his head resting on the headrest, shit I don't even remember how we landed up in this situation, position, ahh I so don't know what I am doing here.

As the panic sets in I begin to freak out but his handsome face brings my attention from my anxiety to him and his face. He has such long eyelashes, they are beautiful, not to mention how soft his face looks right now

"If you keep staring at me firefly, I might end up doing things you'd not want" his voice makes me jump back but his arms around me stop me from falling over

"You are awake?" I ask

"Wasn't but your stare was distracting, it's like holes being burned in my skin" he mumbles

"Manik"

"Does your head hurt?" He asks laying back, his grip on me hadn't loosened, instead it was tighter

"Mhm it feels like an elephant got in my head and is stomping around, I am also starving like I haven't ate in years but that's about it"

"It's because you drank Cabir's drink" he tells me

hearing him, some of the memories from last night comes back of me drinking that orange juice that was beside cabir's bed.

"It was orange juice"

"Darling, it was booze" I gasp hearing him both at the nickname and the booze

"Noooo I don't drink"

"Well you did and then you and I did a lot of stuff"

'Stuff?" I ask

"Mhm stuff" he whispers kissing my head and closing his eyes again

"Manik what stuff?"

"Seriously you don't remember it? I am offended firefly, how can you not remember the night, the beautiful moments we spent together?" He says with small frowns on his forehead

Shit, what the hell did I end up doing? I don't remember anything

"I mhm I remember" I lie

"You don't silly girl, and I am very offended that you didn't remember" he says adjusting me in his arms

He turns with me in his arms so my back was on the mattress, he nuzzles his arm around my waist pulling me against his chest, I couldn't breath for a second feeling him so close

I have been on manik when I wanted to beat him up but this right now, this is different. His chest is right against my back, I can practically feeling his warm breaths on my neck.

"Manik"

"Shhh let me sleep, I am exhausted" he mutters softly

"Please" I whimper making his hold on me tighter than it was

"Please what?"

"I don't remember anything, I don't even remember how I am here in your room, if mumma finds out she will think I took advantage of her not being here and cabir, he will hate me" I try my best not to cry

"Shh why are you crying, what do you think happened?" He asks laying on his back

I instantly turn and sit up with my legs criss cross

"I don't know but I, I feel like I did some bad things but I want you to know that I didn't mean to and I am so sorry"

"Relax, you didn't do much well other then making me watch the stars with you, getting McDonalds because you were starving last night too, you also ran around the entire room and the little part where you told me how much like me" he says

what the hell did I do? crapppp.

I did not tell him my feelings, shit shit shit, fudgeeeee

"Oh you did" he says as if he is reading my mind

Now he knows how to read minds, hellll

"I do not know how to read minds, you are thinking out loud little monster and it's very very entertaining, if I knew you think out loud, I'd watch you instead of Netflix"

"Shut up, this is not funny" I smack his chest

"Ouch, dude don't hit me after you've told me how much you like me"

"Shut up shhh no you didn't hear that plus I don't even like you, I'd rather like monkeys, cats, butterflies, and dogs, now bye" I say getting up form the bed

His arm pulls me back onto the bed making me fall right beside him

"We actually have tons to discuss but most importantly we need to fix this attitude and this walking off in the middle of a conversation habit" he says

"I don't want to talk, last night was a mistake"

"Shut the fuck up, there was no mistake in last night" he groans

"Don't swear at me or I will kill you, mumma gave me permission"

"Mumma also would love if I told her what you feel for me"

"Manik I didn't mean to, I think that drink made me say stuff"

"Nandini no alcohol can make you say stuff you aren't already thinking so no I am not going to believe that. You have two options, either you can sit down and talk or"

"No I don't want to talk"

i know I am being stubborn but it's nerve wracking that I have told him about my feelings. I swore that I would never ever tell him my feelings but here we are

This is exactly why you shouldn't drink around your crush, it will ruin your life.
