Clean Bowled: A Virat Kohli Fanfiction

18. Shocking Discovery

Virat’s POV

 

“What! You got a horror movie?” Satakshi exclaimed, once she got to know Arnav had gotten a horror movie for us to watch. I and Arnav were now in Satakshi’s house for the planned movie night. I mean movie evening. But whatever.

“Yeah, why? You don’t like horror movies?” Arnav asked.

“No, she’s very scared of them!” I stated in a matter-of-fact manner. Arnav instantly turned towards me and asked—

“How do you know?” Ouch. Guess I should’ve kept my mouth shut. Arnav shouldn’t feel that I know Satakshi better than him. Like of course, I knew her way better than him. We have been best friends for such a long time. I knew her inside out, completely. But I didn’t want Arnav to feel insecure or anything. Before I could say anything in response, Satakshi cut in—

“It’s not important. The point is, I’m not going to watch this movie!”  Thanks for saving me Satakshi.

“Hey, please don’t say that! I’m really sorry, I had no idea you didn’t like horror movies. I got it cause I, Virat and Vinnie always watch horror movies when we’re together... Besides, that’s I didn’t have any other DVDs with me other than horror movies!” Arnav explained. That was actually true. We three always did watch horror movies. They were just so amazing!

“But... Satakshi went on to say when Arnav cut it,

I had called Vinnie while coming from my house and she had said that she was already at Satakshi’s, but when I reached here, she wasn’t there! It was another of her idiotic plans to bring me and Satakshi closer. I don’t know why Vinnie is not trying to understand the situation. It’s already hard for me and she is making it still harder.  The trail of my thoughts was broken when the door bell rang. It had to be Vinnie.

“I’ll get it,” I said and made a run for the door. No I did not literally ‘run’, but I was so impatient I could strangle Vinnie once I saw her.

“Ah! See who finally decided to show up!” I exclaimed on opening the door, sarcasm filling my voice. “I didn’t want to come. You were the one who forced me to come and now you are coming late?” I went on saying, all in one breath. Wow.

“Dude! I had a lot of difficulty in locating the house by the directions you gave me!” She sid while I arched up my eyebrow. I knew she was just making up a stupid excuse because Satakshi’s house wasn’t at all that difficult to find.  

“Anyways, I hope you had a good time with Satakshi. Now let’s go in or else your girlfriend will be suspicious,” Vinnie said, asking for entrance, as I was blocking her path.

I knew whom she was referring to as my ‘girlfriend’ but I still acted innocent and asked,
