A stranger who stole my heart

Chapter 24

There was no honking, neither did the red light turn green! Still we broke our kiss. Yes I kissed Jack! The jack on whom every girl at school had a crush on and the dorky me got to kiss him. But to me it was just a kiss. I mean it was a good kiss and trust me he's a good kisser but there were no sparks no passion no déjà vu! It was like just two lips meeting and saliva being exchanged, which to normal ears actually sounds pretty disgusting! It was nothing compared to what I felt when Vin would simply touch me and kissing him is entirely on a different level.

When we broke our kiss, I saw Jack looking at me with awe. Guess he didn't share my feelings. Well sucks to be him, because that's all the kissing that is ever gonna happen between us. We sat there awkwardly in his car wondering what to say, whether to acknowledge what happened or to let it go and never talk about it ever again. Thankfully the green light saved us from the awkward situation we both were in. Jack drove me back to my house. The ride was silent apart from a word here and there. Both of us refused to acknowledge what happened at the traffic signal. And I couldnt thank the Gods any more than I already did for being so gracious with me.

Jack stopped the car in front of my house and both of us got out. He walked up to me and pulled me in his arms and hugged me. I hugged him back while awkwardly patting his back to let him know that I'm done hugging him. He finally decided to let me go after what felt like forever and whispered in my ears a sweet good night kissed. That ass took the liberty of kissing me on my right cheek! I mean yeah we kissed but then it was over! I simply smiled and said “Goodnight Jack. And thank you for tonight. It was funâ€

He waved me away saying it was nothing and got back in his car and drove away to wherever he lived. I got into the house and went straight to my room. I heard my phone vibrating on my bed. That's when I realised that I had forgotten my phone home. I checked my phone and saw that there were around a dozen of missed calls from Vin and tons of text. I also had a couple of missed calls from others including the bitch Jules. She has the guts to call me after what she did! And Vin now found time from his fucking busy schedule doing god knows what to check up on me. I decided to ignore everything that has happened and just relish the leftover pieces of happiness. So I quickly got changed and went straight to bed.

'Tap tap'

i TurnoverD in my sleep. Again there's that sound 'Tap Tap'. I grab my pillow and cover my face to block the noise someone's making. Tha's when I realise that there's someone at the window. I sit upright with lightning speed and frantically look around to determine the source of that sound. Shivering I look towards the window and breath in a sigh of relief. I mentally thank god for sending Vin and not some psychopath or serial killer. Then I look at the bedside watch and realise that it's almost 3a.m. Great! First he breaks my heart and if that wasn't enough he's now trying to steal my sleep too. Just fucking great.

Grudgingly I get up and open the window. Vin helps himself while getting inside and sits down my bed. I thank if for making himself home. I sit opposite to him on the other side of the bed with crossed ergs waiting for him to say something.

We sit there just like that doing nothing but looking into each other's eyes. I clear my throat and wait for him to say something because believe me when I say, things were getting weird. When the silence had become intolerable for me, I urged him to say something. I told him-

"It's 3 in the morning. If you have come all the way to just stare at me, then please leave I have to sleep. As if breaking one thing wasn't enough, now you wanna break my sleep too. Just go Vin'

I just wished I had not urged him to say anything. Silence was intolerable but what he said next literally killed me. It was like being punched in your gut only at least 10 times more. He said;

'I am sorry. But whatever happened, happened with our consent mutually. And I don't regret it even for a second.'
