something just like this

2

Amit gave out an anxious sigh as he read the page 1156 of an encyclopedia on Saturn for the 4th time and still wasn't able to comprehend anything. He had been thinking about Aarya.

God! She was beautiful and her voice was the sweetest thing
he had ever heard. Her
laugh was full of life not like other girls who he had dated in the past who always had a fake smile on their face.

It was while he was thinking this, he saw Aarya standing in front of novels section. This day couldn't get any better he thought as he walked up to her and  stood resting his shoulders on the bookshelf.

"That's a good read , you could give it a try", he quipped . Startled by his sudden appearance she sort of freaked out, "you got to stop doing that ".

"I am sorry, I didn't mean to startle you",he said his voice getting fainter.

"Hey , hey it's ok. Amit right?" She said extending her hand which he took.
"So you like reading, huh?",he said trying to start a conversation. She is pretty and she loves books could she be more perfect.

"Yeah! a lot. They are practically my best friends. They you know never shut us out, love everyone whoever opens them the same and they never give up on you. And..."

"And..?", He asked.

"And.. I should probably shut up", she backtracked her words. " I am probably boring you".

"No, no not at all. I think you are cool plus I like hearing your voice, it's so sweet. You sound like a professional singer?"
"A little bit, yeah!", She replied blushing.

After a while she added on," your brother's​a total jerk".
She had been thinking about their conversation and his expression. He looked heartbroken. It's said that eyes are a window to one's soul and she had never seen more sadder eyes but given that they had never met and she was just being nice to him , he didn't have to act like that.

"Don't say that Aarya , he isn't at all. I admit he is kind of rude but he isn't like that. Some things happened with him in the past which he isn't able to let go off. It breaks me seeing him like this."
Amit thought why he had told all of this to Aarya, he never talked about this issue with anyone, not even vidushi, it was something which only he did not easily di.

Aarya thought about asking his problems but then decided against it, thinking it's none of her business anyways.

An awkward silence filled the room. She thought about going outside and was about to do so when Amit as if reading her mind asked her if she wanted to explore around the school since classes won't be starting anytime soon.

"So what else do you enjoy besides scaring people and reading large oh! - so-boring-encyclopedias?", Aarya asked him as they walked aimlessly around the campus.
"I love playing guitar and I play football".

"No way! I am a guitarist too. I used to play for the school band in my last school"

"That's pretty cool",he replied .

He was acting all cool on the outside but the more time they spent together, the more he fell for her. We are so same he thought. He wanted to ask for her phone number but he didn't want to seem over eager.
Come on just ask her. A voice inside him cried. You talk to girls all the time. What's new.

But those girls aren't half as smart as she is. He countered.

That's​ a beautiful tree. He said finally after sometime, trying to continue the conversation. Really! A tree you couldn't come up with anything else.
"Yeah!", She replied awkwardly.

"So, you wanna come over to my place? We could play guitar together". He actually himself was surprised where did he even get the idea to speak that and had no clue why he even said that.
"Patience grasshopper, I only just met you" Aarya replied with a smirk on her face.

"Ok! On one condition" she added on after a while.
"You gotta goal from half the field". This was hard she thought. Why had she placed this condition. Why couldn't she just be nice to him, Cause boy! Was he cute.

"Done!" He replied with a smile.
"So I better start practicing, if I want you over".
"You better",she replied smiling.

They both spent the next hour in the field with Amit aiming at the goal and aarya sitting idly on the grass.
After like a 100 failed attempts he finally managed to score a goal.

"So I have to come over now".
"You better", he said lying down on the grass. Every muscle in his body ached, he didn't have the energy to go back to the class, let alone study but it was worth it to him.

"Hey! How am I supposed to send you my address. Can I have your phone number", he asked with a devilish grin on his face. He was pushing his luck but he did liked her a lot.

" Try asking me with a chocolate and maybe I will give it to you", she said as she walked away from the field leaving amit gaping at her.
