Abhisha oneshots

If I was your boyfriend

The call comes around two at night. Abhishek picks up with the first ring. He was working out before that.

Abhi:-"Hello? Are you okay?" he asks, resting his head against the edge of the sofa as he is currently sitting on the floor. He was doing sit ups before that, trying his hardest to regulate his sped-up breathing right now.

Mani:-"babu, meri help kar please."

Abhishek sits up straight.

Abhi:-"kaha hai tu? Are you safe?"

Mani:-"mai nhii janti. I think it's following me. I locked it inside my room but I can still hear it."

Abhi:-"Stay with me", he says, jumping to his feet to hurry to his front door.

Mani:-"jaldii se aaja please. I'm so scared."

Abhi:- mai aa rha hu. Tu bilkul chinta Matt kar. Tu ghar per hi hai na.

Mani:-"Yes. Hurry please."

Abhi:-"I'm coming, stay strong. Yeah?"

Abhishek curses, shoving the phone into his pants pocket. He puts on his jacket as he runs down the hallway and puts on his beanie once he is inside the elevator. He is restless in the small space, wishing for it to go quicker. It's too slow.

"Come on, come on", he stresses it, knowing that it is fruitless.

Manisha his best friend. Well, at least that is what she would call him. Best friend. Abhishek sees so much more in her. His best friend, his person of trust, his crush. He would never tell her his feelings because he doesn't want to make it awkward. But if there were no consequences for speaking up, he would tell her that she is his dream girl. Manisha is funny, sweet, caring, talented, intelligent, wonderful, perfect, amazing, beautiful, pretty, stunning. Yes, abhishek thinks that she is all of these things and more. When he is close to her, his heart races and he wants to keep looking at her face. When she is sad, he wants to make her happy again and when she smile, he wants to keep it on her face. When she aren't with him, he misses her and when she is with him, he hopes that time stops passing. Manisha the person he updates on the most mundane of things and whose text messages always bring a quick flutter to his chest. Her voice is the voice he could listen to for hours and her face is the face he doesn't get tired of staring at when manisha and he video chat late night till they both run out of things to say. And at the same time, she is the person with whom abhishek never runs out of things to talk about, if he didn't have to breathe, he would continue to babble to her until manisha ears wore off. Abhishek swears that if there were no consequences for his words, he would tell her all of this.

Abhishek rings her bell. She open the door as if she was waiting for him, grabbing him by his wrists to drag him inside. His entire body flutters at the feeling of her touch.

Mani:-"Finally you are here. Come in quick, please", she tell him.

She must have been sleeping already. She is in her pyjamas and have no make-up on. He swears that she have never looked more beautiful before.

Abhi:-"kya hogya? Did someone break in?" he asks instead of telling her that she is beautiful.

Mani:-"Worse."

Abhi:-"Worse?"

Mani:-"babu, dekh na mere room me ek cockroach aagya hai. Please kill it."

Abhishek stops in his tracks. She call him over for that? She stop when she feel his strength all of a sudden, looking over her shoulder. He has his right brow cocked up.
