Wanna be yours 🌼

.............

The ICT were gathered early one morning for their daily practice session.
The field was empty except for the players, who were warming up and preparing for their drills,

Meanwhiles, shubman and Ishan were chasing each other, their laughter ringing through early morning air.

"mera phone wapas kar shubman ke bache!!!"

"nhii"
Shubman look back and lol his tongue continue running.

Everyone chuckled at their behavior.

"aaj kal bachhe"
Rohit added annoying but secretly enjoying their benter.

They continue running behide each other, ishan caught up shubman and grabbed his collar from behind intending to stop him, however in twist of fate, shubman wasn't prepared from sudden helt and end up falling on top of ishan.

Their body was pressed against each other, their breathing was slightly heavy.
Their faces just inches part, and their eyes met in surprise.

Others in background who had been watching the playful chase now they taken aback was sudden fall.

Shock and surprise washed over them but soon enough.
Smirk begun to from on some of their lips.
Planning to tease shubman and ishan for days to come.

"well, well, what do we have here? A little romantic moment eh?"
Rohit broke the silences with a sly smile on his face.

They snapped out of their thoughts and quickly untangled themselves and stood up, trying to regain their composure, but smirk of ict members only added to their awkwardness.

A hint of blush spread through ishan's cheeks as he realized, he look at shubman hoping for some comfort, but he was met with mirrored expression of
embarrassment and flushed cheeks.

Everyone continue their teasing.

*at night*

Back to the room, as ishan and shubman being the roommates.

Ishan was sitting on the bed couldn't shake off the feeling of embarrassment and nervous.

Shubman walk out of the washroom, look at ishan who was lost in his own world.

He calls him several times but ishan seems like so lost in thoughts.

With no response, shubman walk near ishan and get down to his level, bringing his face closer to ishan's, he gently touched ishan's cheeks trying to snap him out of his thoughts.

Ishan's eyes fluttered open as soon as he felt the touch of his cheeks. His eyes met with shubman who's face was just inches apart from his, he jerked his head back slightly, a. Flood of emotions rushed through him - embarrassment, anxiety and a hint of anticipation.

"s-sorry"
Ishan muttered a apology

"are you okey? Kaha khoye hue the?"
Shubman asked with a worried expression.

"hmm.. "
Ishan nodded, slowly blinked, he looked into his eyes feeling a small and strong connection between them.

"alright"
Shubman replied caressed his cheeks, his eyes was filled with affection.

*after dinner, both were laying on the shared bed, this was their every day routine but something felt different today.. Something odd....but peaceful.
They both were still awake, they couldn't shake off from that moment, it was not new they have both many embarrassing things in public but why today it's felt so different? It wss just an accident right?*

Ishan was staring at ceiling, the mood light relating through the windows making the room atmosphere more quite but thousands of words singing within someone.

Ishan keep staring at the ceiling.

Ishan's own thoughts were confusing him.
He loves shubman, yes.
He accepted it.. It was getting hard now. It was not new for him every night he imagined different scenarios in his mind, some hopeful, some scary.
In one of them... The thought of confessing his feeling to shubman sounds and feels every peaceful maybe, the person was his last 7 minutes... Maybe?

On the other hand, the tought of getting rejected, running his friendship after toring him apart.

He couldn't bear the thought of losing shubman or being hated by him.. But he knew the secret was eating him alive and he hed to do something about it...

He looked beside him, shubman was sleeping peacefully, a smiled curved on his face.
With heavy heart and racing mind.

He picked up a pen and started writing a heartful latter.

They were in same team, in same hotel, in same room even on same bed.
Still its feel thousand miles apart..

Two friends who have been sharing every single moment of their life to each other now can't even express their feeling...?
Friends who live same life in different bodies, don't realise their affection towards each other.... Why?

Anyways...

Ishan having hard time to control his tears, his mind was terrified by rejection while his heart just wanted to love...

Ishan keep writing, every word have deep meaning, the depth of emotions and affection the latter holds was not just for confession.

Ishan poured his heart and soul into the latter

"dear shubman
I don't know how to start this latter, but there is something I've been holding so long.
Its getting hard, I can no longer keep it to myself.
I don't have enough courage to tell this to your face. I have been struggling with my feelings for so long and every day it getting harder and harder...

Remember...?

We stand on field, separated by distance yet connected by our own language of affection.

Words fall short to capture the depth of my emotions that I feel for you.. Every time I look at you my heart skips a beat. You smile brightens my day and your presence bring comfort to my soul.
I just wanna say - I'm I love with you. I love you so much and I can't keep this to myself anymore this secret eating me alive shubi
I can't...i can't.. I don't wanna ruin our friendship... But it's true that I love you... With my whole heart.
Forget me shubi, I be greatful."

-ishan

The latter was bit wet with his tears but the words of affection death of emotions was clearly visible on it, highlighted by tears...

With heavy heart and teary eyes ishan put the latter inside shubman's practice kit and went to bed.
Hoping for best but prepared for worst.

To be continue...
