Siddharth was now frustrated,as much as he didn't want to invade anyone's privacy he was also done waiting outside someone's washroom for over an hour.
He wanted to go but than he also couldn't get himself to move away without having the much needed talk with ishan.
There was something so painful in the way his voice of devoid of any emotion why talking such baseless blames that Siddharth wanted to be there for him

Don't get sid wrong, he know he was being irrationally concerned for man a man he knew for no less than 3 hours but there was this sudden urge in him to know this man,ask him to open and shar his pain with him, he wanted to be someone ishan opens upto.

Crap,sid knows he sounds a creep and obsessed Maniac to himself with being so into someone's business he hardly knew but he couldn't help it.

As a cue before his thoughts drifted further the washroom door clicked and ishaan walked out having taken a bath and dressed up.

"Again a Cotton shirt" Sid's mind noted,
Isn't he aware of England's weather or is he some kind of superhero un warranted of England's cold.

"You still here"
" It's literally 7° celsius"

Both ishan and sid said simultaneously.

Ishan just gave a small smile at that

"I forgot" ishan said in such a low tone that if not for sid being so concentrate he would have not even heard it

"Huh" sid reacted

I said I forgot, this time ishan said a bit louder.

I was in a hurry, I really wasn't given much time and things happened so suddenly I forgot to take weather of England into consideration ,ishan explained.

Sid found it so cute that he let out a foolish grin, ishan seemed a bit embarassed at that so he muffled his laugh.

I'm sorry for laughing sid said.

That's fine but what are you doing here ishan asked.

Oh yeah he was here to talk to ishan about his health and not be a fool finding him cute and stuff.

You can't be at practice in evening,not till I give you permission,I had seen you passed out and than the panic attack,I really can't risk your health no matter how stubborn you are being or how rude the management is being, sid said .

"What's your name" ishan asked

Quite a weird question in midst of such a important discussion but than he remembered they haven't introduced themselves

"Siddharth, but I prefer sid" he said.

Ok,sid , ishan gestured I know you have the responsibility of team health on you,I know you are concerned about me but trust me I know my health and if anything you not letting me practice is what going to worsen it.

Sid wasn't convinced but than he took a look at ishan and those eyes and he didn't know what got into him but he agreed.

Sid was shocked at himself, this is the first time it has happened but the self introspection for some other time he reminded himself.

Ok fine, I have already sent your samples for tests, I would let you play till the results come,but promise you would take rest if something is serious.

Fine ishan said walking out

Wait,sid stopped him.

Come with me, you need a warm overcoat to protect yourself and I'm being generous enough to lend you mine.

Ishan was quite puzzled

Any reason for such a generous offer for peasant like me,ishan decided to play along letting out a small laugh

"Beautiful" sid thought to himself but was quick to compose to himself before his brain wrote an entire poetry was this tiny human.

"I feel generous today" sid declared.
He himself wasn't sure what got into him but he wanted to bond with ishan and he was a man who would never miss a opportunity.

Fine, let's get one I'm hungry anyway so it better be faster ishan chided.

Ishan was kinda relived truth to be told,he knows he's yet to meet the team and the their judgemental gazes or the management/manager who he knows are going to be an ass to him but this unexpected meeting with sid provided him a relief.

He was hopeful that sid keeps interacting with him till he's around so he doesn't feel that void,he knows sid too may turn him around once the team fills him with what a pathetic human ishan is,he was ok with, he had seen people turning away from him past but again a heart can be hopeful

With pankhuri not being here ,sid seemed a genuinely nice guy he could hang out with.
How right were his intuitions only time would tell.

As sid and ishan walked out for getting that overcoat before ishan prepared himself to meet the team in banquet hall he was unaware of the new storm brewing, unaware of the eyes that followed him since he reached the hotel in an unconscious state

TBC...,

P.s. - any guesses sid would be positive or negative.

Also guys this is a ishman fic I promise, will write shubman's pov as well,just give me sometime to set things up

Starting next chapter we would have past and present running in parallel and all the stuff being unraveled.

Ok bye...
