Arrange Marriage

Ch 11. /Possessive/

It's 1 in the afternoon. Pooh and Pavel reached there sooner as expected since there were no road blockage neither traffic. Everything was going smoothly as they both were sitting next to each other even though it felt quite awkward for both of them to involve themselves around those people. They were looking at those people infront of them who were dancing couple dance with their partners. Pooh also noticed one boy staring at Pavel continuously which he didn't like at all. Suddenly that boy came towards Pavel and ask him to dance with him. Saying No to others is a difficult task for Pavel as it always had been like that. He was about to say okay although he was uncomfortable with it, then suddenly Pooh spoke.

Pooh: Sorry, mister. You choosed the wrong person. He is dancing with me.

Pavel gazed at Pooh in shock. Despite his surprise, he preferred dancing with Pooh over someone he didn’t like. He trusted Pooh, believing that he was the kind of person who would rather sacrifice himself than harm others.

Stranger: Can I ask what is your relation with him??

Pooh: He is my boyfriend.

Pavel's eyes widened in surprise as he looked at Pooh, but he remained silent, understanding that Pooh had done all of this to protect him from that unknown person.

Pooh: Right, Pavel.

Pavel nodded and accepted Pooh's hand to join him on the dance floor. As Pooh led him to the dancing area, they continued to dance together. This was the first time Pooh had been so close to Pavel, experiencing the sensation of holding him in his arms.

Pavel: Why would you lie to him??

As they danced to the rhythm, they held each other close, their faces nearly touching. When they looked into each other's eyes, they could feel each other's breath in their faces.

Pooh: Why?? Do you want to dance with him??

Pavel: Thank you.

Pooh: For what??

Pavel: Well, for saving me from him.

Pooh: Do you know him??

Pavel: He is the friend of my cousin. And I also know that he like me. Since he saw me, he always like to hit on me when we meet each other.

Pooh was brusting with anger inside when Pavel said that but he kept his emotions in check. He knew he was a person Pavel just met yesterday and he got no right to question him.

Pavel: I don't feel safe around him.

Pooh: So, that means you feel safe around me.

Pavel: Ahh.

Pavel felt embarrassed to respond. His face was already flushed, and as they were dancing in pairs, it was his turn to move round holding other person finger. Pavel then lowered himself as Pooh held him and pulled him in closer.

Pooh: You didn't answer me.

Pavel: Umm. I know you are not bad person like him so....

Pooh: You feel safe with me.

Pavel nodded, his blush clearly visible. Pooh looked at him with a wide smile on his face. Even though Pavel didn't express it in words, he still felt the happiness.

A silence enveloped them as they wandered with each other in their arms. Meanwhile, Pavel's mom observed everything from a distance, even taking a picture to send to her best friend. "They look so cute," she murmured. "If I had known they would become so close, I would have introduced Pavel to Pooh sooner."
