My Kind Of Happily Ever Afters

Chapter 3

I was engrossed in my laptop, watching The conjuring 2, that I didn't even realize that someone had just entered my room.

"This is my house! Bwahahhhaaaa" someone whisper yelled near my ears, making me jump out off my bed and sprint out of my room, screaming.

When I reached the end of the staircase, I realized that mom was laughing at me from the living room. She was sitting on the couch watching TV.

"Who the heck was that?" I narrowed my eyes. I looked up at my room to find Arjun leaning on the door frame of my room and smirking at me.

"You-you! Mo-" and I was about to say the bad word before realizing that mom was still in the room so I shut up immediately. "How dare you scare me like that?" I chased after him.

"Oh babe. I am a very daring guy. Trust me" he winked as he ran inside my room. I followed him and grabbed a pillow throwing it, his way.

"Duck you!" I yelled.

"What?" he laughed.

"Duck you!" I repeated continuing to throw whatever I caught hold of, towards him.

"Duck you? Really?" he asked laughing like a retarded soul he is.

"Yeah, I would have used the f word if I wanted to get a threaping from mom, but right now I am in no mood for it so duck you!" I clarified.

"Damn! You are an amazing idiot" he laughed. I playfully snorted before giving up chasing after him and sat down at the edge of my bed.

He came and sat down next to me and grabbed my hands, intertwining our fingers.

I gave him a small smile before looking down. "What's wrong?" he asked, on noticing my sudden change of mood.

I sighed. "Rj, do you realize? We are young 19, 21 year olds. It's our time to go out there, study our asses off and get a job? Till now we were here by each other's side, in the same city. We could meet whenever we wanted to. But once we get admission in the universities we are all going to get separated. Nothing will ever be the same again. This is never going to come back!" I said motioning between us.

He sighed but smiled, holding both my hands in his,  he kneeled down near me and said "Naina, first of all, this is never going to change" he motioned between us, like I did, earlier.

"Second, I know it's going to be tough from here but once a girl I love, told me that some chances are worth taken. I agree something's will change but for the better, trust me. Everything happens for a good reason. You just need to learn to trust your destiny" he said.

I looked at him with all adoration in my eyes. He might behave stupid at times but he surely knows how to chill my nerves down.

He cleared his throat, still in the same kneeling position. "Naina, look I know I always f up. No I'm not saying that word because you are going to kill me, so let me just use f instead of that, so I was saying that I always f up. I know I should be doing this the better and romantic way but I don't want to f up anymore. I don't want to wait anymore. So, Naina Mehra? Will you be my girlfriend?" he finally said it.

I shook my head. I was flabbergasted. "Did you actually just ask me out to be your girlfriend?" I asked, blinking rapidly.

He laughed and kissed my forehead. "Yes, I actually asked you out. Say yes now" he said.

I chuckled and nodded my head. "Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Oh my God".

He grinned proudly, before jumping on bed next to me and squishing me in his warm embrace.
