Crush

Chapter 17 - Altruistic

After some time when Ulyssa came. May told her about David.
"Woaaaaa he's gettin on my nerves,,that guy"
"He doesn't have a heart i think.. heartless jerk" said May
"Calm down babe,,you can't judge him over a small incident" said Ulyssa
"Yes i can" said May
           (Here came the teacher)
"Students there will be a group performance for the 50th birthday of our principal" the teacher announced.
"Does that mean me and Ryan will be partners again" May thought
Meanwhile David enters teasing May again
"Hyyy Miss Blind" said David
"Hello" May replied
"What are you thinking so seriously" David asked
"Nothing much" said May

               (In the dance room)
"Well students, this time you'll not be having a particular partner because you have to dance in a circular motion with everyone.
*RYAN ENTERS*
May and David were busy arguing so she didn't noticed Ryan.
Meanwhile Driva calls for Ryan the moment she noticed her. May turned back and saw Ryan standing with Driva.
"They look good together" said May
"Good? Together? Are they dating?" asked David
"Nahhh... I was just wondering what if they do" said May
"But you can't see that cuzz you're blind" said David
"Would you mind shutting up" said May laughingly
"See i made you laugh" ,Miss Blind" said David
Ryan who was standing with Driva notices May laughing with David. He felt some kind of emotion at that time.
"What did he say? That made her smile like that...she never did like that with me" Ryan mumbled
"What did you say?" Driva asked
"No nothing...Are you done talking?" Ryan asked
"Yes, thanks" Driva replied
Ryan then moved away from her,and started to walk towards May. But the moment he reached the teacher said to gather around her.
So May and David gathered around the teacher. Ryan also manages to adjust himself in that rush near May and David. Because maybe he didn't wanted her to talk much with David. The teacher explained the students the arrangement to be followed.
All the boys arranged themselves in a circle. And the girls started to join them. Firstly they have to bent towards their partner and next will be  boys hands on waist and girls on shoulders. They had to change their partners with the beat.
Finally it was May's turn with Ryan..
"Well...i'm not feeling well i'll skip this one" said May. She wanted him to dance with Driva. Because she was behind her.
Driva and Ryan started to dance. But Ryan wasn't that happy when he was with Driva the way he was with May.
"What happened,Miss blind?" asked David
"Nothing" May replied
"Then come lets dance" said David
He then holds May's arm taking her on the dance floor forcefully. Both started perform a tango. It was neither magical nor the people were disappearing from their sight. Because it was David this time not Ryan. So It was just two people dancing contentedly.
David was switfly moving in a smooth motion those dance steps were worth appreciating. He was looking magical, lyrical and so handsome.On the other hand May was enjoying dancing with him because he was looking like a perfectionist.
"I didn't knew that you know how to dance" said May
"Well, their are alot of things you need to know" said David.
*Music stops*
"This tango was the best of all times" said the teacher appreciating David
"I know" David replied
All the students started muttering
"I'm jealous,,she got the chance to dance with him!!!!!!" one girl said
The other one said "she wasn't that good,,but David was..My Hot Baby"
"Would you mind being the main dancer?" said the teacher
"Yes i'll only if May will be my partner" said David
The peace on May's face turns into a scowl. She stared at David angerly. David stares back winking at her.
"Yes sure, she'll be your partner" said the teacher. She then announces that to everyone. Ryan who was just dancing with Driva stops all of a sudden staring at May with an enviousness. It was like all he wanted to do was to took her away from him.

(Bell rings it was time to have some food)

While going to the classroom, Ryan catches up with May
"Are you angry with me??" Ryan asked
May was stunned at first but she said "No" why would i be?" asked May
"No it's just.........we were partners when we performed lately and now you are with..that guy David.
"Well.....i" May was to say something but David comes from back pushing her forward sayin "Just eat miss blind or we'll be late for practice"
May moved on looking back at Ryan. But then suddenly Driva comes to him.
"Well...yea she came" said May with a sigh
"I really wanted it to be you,
I badly wanted it to be you
Until i realised,you didn't wanted it to be me" thought May with a teary-eye.
On the other hand Ryan was all upset. Why May was ignoring him all of a sudden and why he was feeling some kind of emotion which he never felt.

                (In the classroom)
"I'm happy i helped Ryan to get close with Driva" said May
"Are you okay?" asked Ulyssa
May with a teary eye.."NO"
"IT HURTS,,IT HURTS REALLY HARD"

It felt like "The light in her eyes was stolen by the sadness in her heart"
