Because You Loved Me-A Kaira FF

This is just a joke right??Right??

       Now let me all transport you back to my college days where we had both met for the first time. It wasn't love at first sight second sight or even the hundredth sight. On the contrary it was war at first sight. We both were each other's sworn enemy in our college and the story of how two archenemies became lovers is a story for another day. 

Flashback
     It had been one hell of a hectic day. The assignments at college were becoming overbearing and with the upcoming sem exam ,our lives were just as worse as it could get. My roomate was fast asleep and I really feel jealous of of peacefully she sleeps inspite of the chaos going on in all our lives. I swear i cannot get even a wink of sleep just thinking about the finals approaching. Not just this,i had other things in mind. If finals get over and we go back home, i won't be able to see him as much as i would like to. We would be seperated for God knows how long and we need to tell our families soon about our story. It's not that they are going to be totally against it but even then it has been wrong hiding it all this time.Just as my mind was scrambling in all these thoughts i heard a sound. Something was hitting my window constantly and immediately my heart started fluttering, something it always does when he is nearby. I peeped out the window and there i saw my mendak hanging onto the drain pipe looking all kinds of charming as much as he could in his hoodie and tracks. He had that lopsided grin plastered to his face eventhough i knew it was difficult for him to do all this climbing. This was just a part of our routine because anytime he felt that i was nervous or anxious or depressed my superhero mendak would just come flying out of nowhere and rescue me. My knight in shining armour, Kartik. I thought of teasing him a little longer but decided against it because i could see his teeth chattering in the freezing cold outside and immediately pulled him through my window. After great difficulties he finally landed in my room with a soft thud taking care to not to awake my roomate. If anyone came to know about this practice of ours, we surely would be expelled but everything's been going good so far.
      At once , he pulled me into his arms and hugged me tightly. I guess the same thoughts i was having were going through his mind also.  At times, this was how we restored our strength, in each other's arms until we felt safe. His head was buried in the crook of my neck and i could feel him inhaling my scent. My head was on his chest and i could feel his erratic beating heart. Then he started pulling away and i knew something wasn't right. I pushed his head up and asked him if something was wrong. " No no just had a bad nightmare. What if they don't agree??I know that's just utter nonsense but just in case if something's gonna happen, what do we do?? You know i can't live without you." he said worriedly and i could see the fear in his eyes." Oii mendak nothing's gonna happen. Remember you have got sherni by your side and as long as we are together, nothing will go wrong". Just to lighten the mood i added" Incase if they don't agree mendak, i guess  we have to move on with someone else". This seemed to completely bring him out of his sad phase and he immediately pushed me to a wall.  "Miss.Rishikesh, becoming too brave are we?? As long as i am there, no one , i repeat, no one can take you away from me" and for each word he said his face was inching closer to mine and breaths started becoming laboured. There was almost no gap between us now yet we weren't completely close.That's how it always was. He had pinned my hands to wall not allowing any moment on my part. If it was upto me i would already closed that tiny gap ages ago but I guess still the right moment hasn't arrived where we could kiss each other. As the moment was becoming too intense, Kartik just pulled away and stood far away from me. " Sorry..that was ..sorry" he continously repeated and then started walking away hestitantly. I guess he wanted to say something but words were just refusing to come out. Finally he just let it out"CanIstaythenightwithyou?" he said it all out in one breath. Looking at my face he must have understood that i didn't understand a word, so he repeated clearly," Can i just stay here tonight?? Because the nightmare just keep coming back"he asked slightly hesitant and i couldn't say no to him. I knew i was taking a big risk and i also had a roomate for godsakes but i just didn't want to let him go into the lonely night. I slightly nodded my head not before adding"No touchy business. You wake before dawn and leave because i don't want my roomate waking up to a shock early in the morning. Is that okk??" and he nodded his head like a lovestruck puppy. My bed wasn't that big and  we managed to sleep as far away as possible ,that was literally two feet. But somehow in the middle of the night i could feel all the distance disappearing and i felt him pulling me close to him, and i just cuddled closer using his hand as a pillow or just laying on his chest. I could feel him  encircling me in his arms tight as if i was the warrior fighting off his nightmare and that's how we must have been sleeping the whole night. In each other's arms, our own little safe haven. I was a bit awake when i sensed him leaving, as quietly as possible , slightly entagling me from his arms and gently placing me back on the bed. He tucked the sheets properly, and left not before leaving a sweet kiss on my forehead and whispering in the sweetest of tones" I love you".

    "Naira??Naira?? Are you all right?? Come on Naira..wake up!!I could hear voices shouting. One was feminine screeching and the other voice , the voice that had wished me good morning all these years, the very voice that had said a million I love you's.My  Kartik's voice. What was he doing here?? I had just woken up from a dream that involved Kartik and that's why i must be hallucinating. But the voice was becoming more clear and clear. And as i slowly opened my eyes , i could see two figures hovering over me. My vision was slightly hazy but i could still make out who they were. It was Payal and Kartik. How the hell was he here?? Then it all struck me at once. How Payal had dragged me to meet the new neighbour, how they hadn't opened the door for long and as we were leaving the door opened and there stood Kartik. That's as far as i remember. I must have fallen unconcious after that. Because such close encounters of too many times with a person who i am trying to forget must have taken a toll on me. "Thank god you are awake Naira. I was starting to become really scared"Payal said worriedly. He never spoke anything. He just stood by silently. And i don't know why but that angered me so much. He was the reason i was having all those nightmares, he was the reason i couldn't sleep properly everyday, i couldn't eat properly let alone live a peaceful life because he appeared at every corner of my life.And i was the sufferer for the mistake that he had done. While he stood comfortably like that, i had been lying unconciousness for sometime and woke up like a lunatic. That angered me soo much and i started shouting. "Payal ask him to get out. He doesn't deserve to step foot in my house" and i was shouting this repeatedly again and again until he walked out silently. To be honest i was scared, because i could control my feelings as long as he was away, out of my sight. But when he was living just next door now, it frightens me a lot. Whether like a fool i would  in love with him all over again because the last time I remember when he was in the same dorm as mine, we were archenemies in the beginning, then we had fallen in love, married and now stand here in the present. I don't want the cycle repeating all over again because there is only so much i can face strongly and in no time i may become a crumbling mess. So what do i do???
