Love In The Time Of Drama

Gentle Tensions

~~last time :
She was at an intersection, just about to take a turn when she was jerked behind ,from her bag . ~~

Turns out she was going to bump straight into Paul ,who was tying his shoelaces .Luna turned to see the one who pulled her ,who she was leaning on .

She looked right into those hazel eyes ,with her body leaning on a hard but warm one .
She immediately drifted away in embarassment .

"Do you want to smack your face right onto the floor ?Or fall into the arms of someone who doesn't give a damn to anyone ?"Ash said sarcastically.

Luna glared at him for a second and then said ,"Stop it Ash"

He gave a small pursed smile but then it got overlapped by a look of slight worry.

"Why don't you be careful ?Keep your phone inside and watch where you're going"he said

Luna felt a bit guilty this time ,"Well ,thankyou ...and sorry .Now I'll get going"

Ash seemed to like spending time with her and ...Paul noticed it .

"My home's is this way too .We can walk together "Ash said .

Just then ,Paul got up and interrupted ,holding her hand ,"Come with me ,I wanted to talk to you "

Before she could say something Ash held her another arm and said ,"She doesn't have the time to talk " slightly pulling her towards him.

Paul did the same ,"I didn't ask you Ash"

Luna ,who had no clue of what was happened snapped both her hands towards her and said ,"Stop !(sighs) Well Paul ..."

Ash interrupted again ,"How the heck do you know his name ?"

Luna puzzled did not understand what to say ,"What ? Well it's just that I know (brings focus back to Paul) why don't you just talk here ?"

Paul replied as fast as he could ,"No come with me "

Luna thought that he might just want to tell her something about school or teachers of friends so she agreed .She turned to Ash and said ,"So ...bye Ash"

He was not at all happy with her going with Paul .He just nodded in reply .
As he saw them walking away ,he thought,'Ash Ash Ashh! Stay calm .He is just playing games'

Deep in thought ,Ash was jumpscared by Conan who just jumped on him and said ,"What are you doing buddy ?You ..look annoyed .scary"

Ash sighed as he pushed him off ,"It was Paul .I was talking ,with Luna .And then he came .said (imitating Paul's serious face) I want to talk. And .. they're gone "

Conan gave a mischievous smile and said ,"Looks like someone got a crush !(does some weird dance moves) Be careful or he'll steal your girl Ash"

Ash smiled for once but then glared at him and said ,"Don't talk trash"

~On the other hand~
Luna kept walking behind Paul but he just didn't seem to stop to talk .She fastened her pace to match his and said ,"Didn't you want to talk ?"

Paul stopped suddenly ,nearly making Luna land on her face .He looked like even though he knew it would happen he didn't know what to do .

"It's nothing ..just that don't talk to Ash ." Paul said with his hands in his hoodie pockets .

Luna was confused ,"Why? He's a nice guy "

Paul let out a little sigh and leaned towards her so much that they were face to face in spite of their height difference ."What made you think so ?"

Luna blushed seeing him so near his face .It was the first time she noticed how attractive he really was .

She tried to step back but lost her control .She was about to fall when Paul caught hold of her arm .

Luna quickly got back on her feet and loosened Paul's rough grip .

He didn't look any bothered and said in a usual tone ,"speak?".

Luna looked the other way thinking,'what the heck were we even talking about ?'
In an attempt to normalise the situation ,she just said ,"Nothing . Let's go."

"Actually I wanted to ask what's your ..."Paul was interrupted by a car stopping just beside them .
