Affair Of The Heart

Chapter - 2

Author's POV
**************

On the same day at night,  Ishan was surrounded by his assignments. All the notebooks and books were scattered all over his study table.

Ishan had an frustrated pout on his lips as he stare at the numericals of physics. Yes unfortunately, he has taken science stream, which is now giving him headache.

"I must be out of my mind that time to choose science as my stream...this is so hard!..." Ishan couldn't help but whine.

But now demage is already done, so what's the point of crying over it? Absolutely nothing!

It was already 12 at midnight. Ishan keep yawning as his eyelids got heavy and finally he couldn't control himself from closing his eyes shut as sleepiness took over him.

Shubman was returning back to his room after refilling his water bottle but stopped infront of Ishan's room, which is just beside his own room.

He frowned when he saw the lights on of ishan's room.

"It's already midnight...Why he is still awake?"

He murmured to himself before opening the door and walked inside. He saw Ishan, already sleep while head on study table over his books.

Shubman couldn't help but let out a fond chuckle as he stare at the sleeping boy. He keep staring at other, who is sleeping peacefully, cheeks pressed against book, his mouth slightly opened. The sight before his eyes was so adorable.

Shubman didn't realised that he was staring more than it was necessary. He walked to ishan and gently caressed his cheeks, feeling the soft skin.

And without realising he leaned to kiss Ishan's soft cheeks but as if suddenly slapped back by reality, he froze in midway, immediately straightening up himself.

After a minute of silence, an confused expression appeared on his face.

"Wait,..why i'm making big deal out of it? I have kissed his cheeks many times so why i'm feeling nervous all of sudden?..." Shubman uttered to himself, and slapped his cheeks, finding himself stupid.

He put the bottle on study table and with gentle and soft hands, lifted other in bridal style before softly laying him on the bed.

A frown appeared on ishan's face, because of too much movement. Shubman immediately start patting his hair to lulled him back to sleep.

Once ishan went in deep slumber, Shubman covered other with duvet, properly And caressed his hair gently.

"Good night ish...sleep well..."

Having said that, he walked back to study table and sit on the chair. He then start going through all the sums and start solving it.

After 45 minutes, he was finally done and stood up before taking his water bottle. He then take last look at sleeping ishan before exiting the room, slowly and closed the door behind.

Next morning, ishan woke up because of his irritating alarm clock ringing right into his ears. He turned it off and sit on the bed in daze for a while.

Suddenly he remembered something when his eyes fall on his study table, he clumsily dashed towards it.

"Shit my assignment!..." He exclaimed as he hurriedly opened his notebook.

He was about to cry in panic as his physics teacher is so strict but stopped as a shocked and surprised expression appeared on his face.

His homework is already done!!

"But i remember last night- wait..isn't it shub's handwriting?! So shub did my assignment? " Ishan said a little loudly as he saw the handwriting carefully.
