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

By the time both of them reached at their camping spot, the rain has subdued by some percent. Shubman lead his way towards his own tent with ishan in his hold.

He walked inside, leaving wet patches on floor of tent. The tent was empty which means Abhishek is with Mayank in other's tent.

He then went towards mattress before slowly and gently put ishan on the it. He kneeled down infront of younger.

Shubman slowly took ishan's foot in and placed it on his lap before gently examine the ankle, which has turned a little red.

Ishan was busy looking here and there as it's his first time inside Shubman's tent, he must say it's more spacious than other student's tent.

"Ah..."

Suddenly ishan let out a yelp as he snapped his neck towards Shubman, who has just pressed his ankle with a little force.

"I'm sorry...I didn't knew it was hurting this much..." Shubman immediately apologized as he looked at younger's pained expressions.

"But I didn't bring any spray with me...do you want me to call medical staff of your school?" Shubman asked worriedly while continuing, his fingers gently caressing younger's wounded ankle.

Ishan immediately shook his head in no before replying,

"I have one with me in my bag, you can call Mayank, he will bring it..."

"It's okay, i will get it myself, i'm already wet so why bother him? You wait here, I will be back..." Shubman said and get up.

"But-"

"No buts and don't you dare move even an inch from here..." Shubman said sternly.

Ishan nodded like a obedient boy, making shubman hum in satisfaction. And With that he exited the tent.

Shubman run towards ishan's tent which few tents away from his own tent and zipped open the tent before walking inside the tent.

The look of amusement flash in his eyes as he looked at the scene infront of his eyes. There on the mattress, Abhishek and mayank were in deep sleep while cuddling each other.

He took out his phone and clicked the picture of them sleeping like that before covering them with a thin blanket.

"It will be fun to see how he would explain this to me..." Shubman muttered while looking at the picture in this phone.

He then quickly searched for ishan's bag, he soon find a black bag and opened it. After searching for around 5 minutes, he finally found the spray. Just when he was about to close the bag, he remembered ishan's drenched clothes, so he took out a pair of clothes also before leaving from there.

Ishan was playing games in his phone when older return. Shubman went to him and handed him set of clothes, ishan took it.

"Change your clothes first..." Shubman said eyeing his wet clothes.

"You too..." Ishan said.

"I will, after putting this spray on your sprained ankle..." Shubman replied softly.

Now both of them stood in silence while staring at each other. The silence soon turn awkward.

Ishan was feeling troubled all of sudden about changing infront of Shubman. But he don't know how to say this to older, it's not like he can tell him to wait outside, it's raining!.

Looking at ishan's a little uncomfortable expressions, Shubman can guess his thoughts and slowly turn around, back facing ishan.

Afterall it is good for him and his heart too. He don't know if he able to control his emotions after seeing younger like that.
