I realised from the day i brought her here, she's been sleeping most of the time in my room. Why is she obsessed with my room? I scoffed at the thought her sleeping on my bed.

"I never share what's mine!" I murmured, rolling my eyes, while i descended the stairs.

Never have I ever let anyone enter my room. One day she will kick me out of my own room, i shouldn't be so soft on her, even if she is a girl.

Closing my eyes, i massaged my temples, and pushed back my hair walking towards the door.

I entered the study room, to see a monkey hanging by the book stacks and when he saw me entering the room, he quickly ran towards me.

"Hey, Babe!" The monkey said, he stood before me, "what's up?" He asked again, while I just shook head and gave him looks.

"Fred! What are you doing here?" I asked smiling sarcastically, "hanging out…" he shrugged, smiling eye to eye, well knowing the fact that I hate anyone coming here.

I glared at him walking to my desk, "Hey! Workaholic, what are you doing here…this early in the morning? Did you take a bath?" He asked paused to look at the time, it was sharp 9 am in the morning.

"Just came for some peace" I said leaning back on my armchair, closing my eyes in peace.

"Is it because of her?!" He asked in  excitement, what's so exciting about her? Maybe, a crackhead will like to befriend another creakhead.

"Is it her again?" He asked again, i nodded slowly. We took out seats and I told him everything. I rolled my eyes att he thought of her, as i replayed the entire scenario in my head.

"Hmm,...so had been sleeping in your room twice?" He asked nodding his head, while leaning on his hand. "Thrice" I answered not looking at him, but the papers in my hands. "Thrice? Okay" he said calmly, "MOTHERFUCKER! Am I a joke to you? Is my friendship nothing to you?!" He burst out, "what now?" I said blanked face.

"You never ever once took me to your room, just forgot about the sleepover. You NEVER let me IN in the first place!" He cried over the fact, again and again.

"Go cry about it!" I slammed the table and got up, making him flinch.

"Geeez! Calm down man!" He forced me to sit again, and started blabbering again.

"Now that I think of it, she already took over your bedroom?" He chuckled in amusement, "what you mean? Is there anything more she will take over?" I asked in disbelief.

"Yes,…probably" he shrugged thinking, and smiling like an idiot, while he walked out of room. I can't imagine those two in the same room, eating up everyone's head.

"When is the wedding, huh?" He peaked in through the door, still smiling.  "What the hell Man!" I yelled at him, he shrugged again. I remember he was the very first one to come to my study.

"Hey! What were you doing here in the first place?!" I asked him, "Came over to see you, waited 30 min. And now going back the same way I came" he said.

"Are you sure you have a girlfriend?" I asked, raising my frustrated brows. "Want me to prove?" He smirked, still standing between the doorframe from where his head popped in the room.

"No, thanks" I said, he nodded. "About the wedding, it'll be at this weekend" I said plainly, "what about engagement? He asked amused, now fully standing before me, leaning against the closed door.

"It will be short and sweet, at our home" I smirked, thinking about it.

"Okay-"

"CHRISTIAN!!" Our both heads turned at the same voice, and we dashed out of the room.

She was leaning against the balcony of upper floor, "can you help me descend the stairs?" She asked with puppy eyes, pointing her finger on her injured feet.

"Oh Man! Good luck" Fred laughed at me, and left before clicking a photo of us. He's gonna be the death of me.

I climbed the stairs up, now standing before her. She stared with her hazel eyes. Her wet hair fell down her shoulder and reached till her mid back bone.

She took a shower, I smelled fresh lilies from her. She wore a white floral dress with blue flowers printed on them.

"Tell me when you're done!" She smirked, repeating my words. I looked away, feeling a little hot. I clear my throat before turning to her again.

"Ella! Can you behave for once!" I whispered yelled at her again, "atleast infront of outsiders and my friends!" I finished.

"Hmm…okay!" She said nodded mockingly, it's like she's mimicking me.

"Why couldn't you just call me?" I asked her, she rolled my eyes again, successfully getting on my nerves. "I just ran away from home, do you expect me to care about my clothes, footwears or my belongings?" She asked me in a sassy way, like she did a very proud thing by running away from her damn house.

I forgot about her things, it's not like she's a boy so I can share my unused clothes. She needs new belongings and a new phone.

"I'm hungry now, let's go down, shall we?" She asked, pulling me out of my chain of thoughts. I nodded before scooping her into my arms, making her flinch.

I took her down, to the dining room and placed her on one of the chairs before sitting beside her.

"Wait, don't you sit there?" She said pointing to the king sized chair, at the middle of the table. "Not always" I shrugged, before digging into my food.

Time skip

I decided to shop for her clothes and wedding dress today itself, so we can enough time in our hands. And about wedding rings? I managed it, I just have to pick it up by afternoon 4pm.

"Get ready, we're going out" i declared, not caring about her opinion. "What? why? And where?" She bombarded me with her stupid questions, it's a usual thing now. I have to get habituated.

"Shopping for wedding dress and more" i replied shortly, wiping my mouth before getting up from the seat. I was about to go, but she held my hand, and stopped me from going any further. She didn't stopped me, my steps halted from this sudden action of hers.

"Wait! When is the wedding?! And What about engagement?! I'm not ready yet!" She whined like a two year old, who doesn't want to go to school yet. "Why? what's there to be ready for?" "You won't understand even if I told you!" "There's nothing that I can't understand!" I glared at her, folding my hands.

"See! This is a very big step for me, I'm getting married to a stranger without telling my parents. I don't even know if you're a good person or not, conclusion is that I need time to process that if I'm taking a right decision or not by trusting a stranger like you!" She finished off in one breath, Is her profession is rapping?

I looked into her eyes, while she did the same. I kept my hands on the either side of the table and chair, and slowly leaned forward towards her ears. I love the way she always flinched to my touches and got nervous under my gaze.

"Babygirl, You're not doing a great thing by accusing as a bad person" i whispered, making her shiver a little. She backed off, and glared straight into my eyes. Our noses almost touching, our lips some inches apart.

"If I was a bad person, you wouldn't get this treatment at all, let alone taking you for shopping with me. I would've done things, you wouldn't even imagine"…

…"Should I show you how good I can be?" I smirked, while her eyes widened while she covered her mouth by her left hand.

She soon realised, the distance between us was lesser than she mentioned in the conditions. She quickly pushed me back, while I chuckled at her reaction. I can't help but think, she's cute just like a trapped puppy and i like to do it more.
