The Bad Boy's Crush

Chapter 25 - New Bodyguard!!

Ivan's P.O.V.

Two weeks passed since New Year and it's Sunday. Stretching my body, I got up from my bed and wearing my shirt and shorts, I left my room. Emma's voice was coming from outside. I opened my bedroom's door and walked out.

I saw Emma and Hazel busy placing things in a small bag. A suitcase was already placed next to to the couch. I glanced at the calendar next to the wall. Today is the day when Hazel will be moving out.

"Here. Keep these too", Emma said handling fruits to Hazel.

"I can buy them", Hazel said whilst closing her bag.

"But you can't get home-made jams. At least keep these", Emma said and kept three jars of jams in Hazel's bag.

"What are you guys doing?", I asked looking at the stuff to be packed in the boxes.

"Packing. Vena is moving out, much to my disliking", Emma said pouting and Vena gave her a sad smile.

Hazel and Joe's exams are over and Joe is planning to have a small trip with me. I am happy to go out with her anywhere. I like her that much.

I saw Hazel's books all placed in so many rows. Emma helped her keeping them in a box. Her books took one whole box to fill up. She owes more novels than clothes.

How nerd is she?, I wonder.

"Who is going to drop you?", I asked looking at both the girls bickering over what to pack and what not to. Hazel looked at me with those beautiful eyes of hers.

"I've got company", she said passing me a smile. Since past a week, she's smiling at me. She's being nice to me. She doesn't like me for sure but she's being civil to me in a nicer way and it just feels good to me too.

"Can't we drop you?", Emma whined whilst picking up Aiden and feeding him apples.

"It's fine. I'll settle there first and then I'll invite you all for dinner", Hazel said and then she picked up Aiden in her arms.

"Goodbye, buddy. Aunt will come to see you soon", Hazel said and kissed him on his cheeks. He kissed her back and she smiled.

"You're his godmother. Do come to visit often or else we'll bother you by showing up at your place", Emma said and hugged Hazel. Aiden hugged them too. Such a small cute moment they've together. I smiled. My sister is really a kind-hearted person and I'm glad she met someone as kind as hazel. They pulled away as soon as the doorbell rang.

"I've to go now", Hazel said having a hold on her suitcase.

"Ivan, could you see who is at door?", Emma asked and I nodded. She handed Hazel's handbag to her.

I walked to the door and as soon as I opened it, I was surprised. A very dear friend of mine was standing in front of me, smiling from molar to molar. He greeted me. He was none other than Parker.

"Hey, buddy", Parker said.

"What are you doing here? Why didn't you tell me about your arrival?", I asked. A frown made its way on my forehead.
