THE BLAZING WILL Book 1

Chapter 10: I am in love

"He knows." Dan added to the conversation between Nora and Ren when they were in the car.

"He what...how I mean why..." Nora was completely blown out of her mind.

Ren answered on how he did. But her eyes were on Dan.

He never looked like he regretted in Nicole knowing. Like it was completely fine with him. He didn't care the fact that I and my sister were going to leave. Cause we broke the rule.

It wasn't about the contract anymore. I definitely knew it was more that that. The relationship we have somehow...I don't know but have I...?

It was different today.

Dan had a completely a different air about him . He looked so .... Matured and ...handsome and...how to say....more ... Hot. He had this look which didn't look like him..the cute and irresponsible boy had long disappeared from his face.

Since the moment when I saw him after the NICOLE incident...he had never talked unnecessarily like he used to. He had never approached me even once. He never laughed or smiled anymore. He moreover had this strong and captivating look on his face. I don't know if it was just me or .... Cause Ren doesn't say anything on the first place. He looked more like a man than that of a kid. He often gave me these long staring looks which made me feel really uncomfortable. It was almost that I wanted to escape from there but couldn't. He was altogether a stranger now.

Dan had never looked like that before. I am sure of it. The Dan I know was more kiddish. And was easier to play pranks on. This Dan is entirely on a whole knew level. He keeps on disappearing more often and he doesn't come for learning lessons anymore. Ren says he is busy. How can Dan be busy. He never works.

Ren often keeps appearing instead of Dan.

And I really miss Dan.
I really really want to see the real Dan.

When I came back from Regina's house Dan didn't even talk a word with me. He didn't ask me if I was alright or anything.
Instead he asked Ren to take care of the rest...his voice was more manly and his eyes more sharper his movements didn't have even a tiny bit of waver. He looked more confident and stern. He looked like he was really precise in everything.

That night he didn't come down for his dinner. Infact Ren said that he would give the food to Dan.

I feel lonely.
Never have I felt this way before.
The more he goes away the harder...... And my heart stinks.

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

We reached school and there was no conversation till we did. Dan was, the whole time staring out of the window. And the amazing part was that, he looked like he was thinking, which will never happen to the Dan I know.
When he realised that I was staring at him. He turned to towards me, by the time I turned my head towards the other direction. And I was sure that he didn't see.

We were on our way to the classrooms. Their paces were faster and I couldn't keep up with them. It seemed like they wanted to avoid me somehow or the other.

This weird way of character change did look so creepy. But that fact that each time he looked at me or I at him, my heart bet so fast and hard that I can hear it in my ears. The way he looked at me was so seductive. It came to the fact that I can't look in his eyes anymore. I avert my eyes from him each time he looks at me.

This is called mental torture of opposite sex.

These feelings were to hard to explain. And I was so new to this that I don't know how to explain .
....................

The students around didn't care much about our situation anymore.

I went out during the break with Regina.

“I couldn't breath in the class. Since the moment you texted me in class till now, he was staring at me. Each time I caught hi  doing that he didn't even avert his eyes one bit. Doesn't he know how to be embarrassed or any thing. Doesn't his heart beat fast? Cause mine really do that I can't breathe. He.....he no more looks like a person I can approach anymore.” Nora blurted out all her emotions.

Regina didn't react at all to this.

“All I see is two stupid, dumb lovers in class. Trying to realise their feelings....” Regina looked like she didn't care even the slightest.

“What do you mean by that. You talk like you know our situation.”

“....You are in love. You know that right....?” Regina looked at me face and suddenly changed her expression to a whole new.

“...you don't know that he really, really loves you or do you know that you already fell in love with him do you....?...what the hell? You are dinner than I thought you are.? ”

“I am in love...?”
