Myra's POV:

I jolted forward from my seat as the car suddenly stopped in the parking lot. Without looking at me, he said,

"Get out," his teeth clenched together. I unbuckled my seat belt and was about to open thd door when I turned around and started to buckle up again,

"What are you doing?"

"I'm not leaving until I don't get any answers" I was adamant this time. He hit the palm of his hand on the steering wheel in anger, still looking through the windshield.

I crossed my arms over my chest, having no intention whatsoever about leaving. After a few moments of silence, he turned towards me and moved closer,

"you want answers? Why don't you ask the bracelet you keep hidden? That pink box you always kept next to you?" How does he know about it?

He unbuckled and walked out of the car, slamming his door behind him and walking to the dining hall. Gathering myself, I rushed behind him, finally catching up with his long strides,

"Tell me Ruhaan who are you? Please tell me?" I pleaded panting as I had to run next to him to keep up with his walking pace, "tell me.."

I pushed him to a wall to the side and trapped him between my arms, "you can't go anywhere now, just tell me the truth please?"

"Ask yourself and you'll get the answer Mira," he whispered in my ear as he ducked underneath my arm and walked towards the dining hall once again.

I walked into the dining hall and with no seat available, since Nia was sitting with Abhimanyu, I had to sit opposite to Ruhaan once again.

Not once did I look upto face him, but I could feel myself burning up because every eye in the room was on me. It turns out that no one ever had enough courage to sit opposite Ruhaan or talk to him.

I asked him to pass the milk and he did, avoiding eye contact. Our fingers brushed and I felt a knot forming in my stomach on the mere proximity.

After breakfast, I walked back to the dorms to change into some proper clothes. As I entered all three of the girls stood up and started throwing questions at me,

"Where were you?" Amelie asked.

"Why didn't you come back?" Nat questioned. Concern was dripping from their expressions.

"Who do you think you are? The queen or someone that you didn't bother informing us where you were? Do you have any idea how worried we were? We were worried sick about you until Abhi told us everything this morning about what happened last night, and about you and Ruhaan-"

"Ok ok, chill," I said grabbing her shoulders and shaking her, "I'm fine, see?" I assured and she simply replied with, "yeah, yeah. So what happened? We want all the details" she said excitedly as Amelie and Nat nodded behind her.

"Details?"

"Of you and Ruhaan.." Nat elaborated as I sighed.

They sat me down and bombarded me with questions as expected.

Ruhaan's POV:

Walking into the dorm, I found it was empty other than Abhi who was sitting on one of the moon chairs to the side. I took my shirt off and put another black one on.

I eyed him, questioning him for an explanation, "I'm sorry okay? I was a little drunk last night you know.. I may or may not have told the principal that Myra was with you last night..."

I walked over to him and grabbed him by his collar, pushing him to a wall, "how could you do this? Do you have any idea about what you have done?" I questioned angrily, "I'm sorry. I really am," he whispered in defense.

I let him go, "never mind, everyone was bound to find out one way or another. It's not your fault, I'm sorry" I apologised rubbing my forehead remembering what happened a little while earlier.

Flashback:

As I stepped out of the dining hall, I heard small murmurs from some of the girls standing a couple of steps from me,

"Do you know Myra, the one in our english class, she didn't come back to the dorm last night. I heard she was with Ruhaan" the short one in the middle gossiped.

"The Ruhaan?" the extremely skinny one asked and the short one nodded, "are you kidding me? So many girls have tried seducing him and failed. You think a plain jane like Myra would be able to lure him to bed with her?" she mocked.

I clenched my fists, closing my fists that were urging me to go upto her and slap her. How could she just make rumors up.

I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned around to see the principal, Mr. Smith standing in front of me, "I'm very disappointed in you Ruhaan," he said as I stuttered trying to make up a proper sentence.

I looked him in the eye before replying, "Sir, it's not what you think. Yes she was with me last night, but she didn't sleep with me sir. These are just rumors. It's not the truth sir, pleas-" I tried explaining before he shouted, "three months of detention" and left.

Flashback ends.

I don't know what I'm going to do now.

Woah!! That's a lot to swallow. I'm so waiting for the next chapter.
