5: Getting To Know You

'SubhanAllah-Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' as song for this chapter

It was one of those stupid Mondays again but I was ecstatic for the very first time. I still can't get over the fact that Shehry asked me on a date. I mean how often do you see something like that happen.

Shehry bhi na kitna aqalmand hai. He asked me to text him with a 'yes' without even giving me his number. Well, I'd just tell him at school that I'm up for it.

Since today was a special day, I made sure I looked extraordinary today. I took a bath and wore a shocking pink dress which went slightly lower than my knees. I wore black tights underneath just to cover up my legs. Of course, modest clothing has always been my first priority.

Since the dress was sleeveless, I slipped on a small black leather jacket on top and paired the dress with black long boots. I curled the ends of my long hair and left them open. Putting on a little makeup and grabbing my bag, I left the house.

"Aaj koi ziaada hi sexy nahi lag raha?" Sara winks.

"Thank you jee." I smile.

"Oye, usski sexy waali smile se bach ke rehna. Poori lattu ho jao gi warna." She teases me and I hit her arm, laughing.

We finally reach school and I entered. Walking through the hallways was no different today either, as guys would just stare at me with those rapist eyes and try to flirt with me but I'd just ignore and walk away.

I gathered my books from the locker and went straight to class.

As I entered, my eyes scanned the place for that one special guy for my crazy Monday morning happiness, which I had never felt before. He wasn't in class yet. Just hope he doesn't turn up with Ashley or things would go upside down.

"You look beautiful Nida." Micheal complimented me.

"Thanks Mike. You don't look less handsome yourself." I shot a smile back at him.

It was about time Shehry steps into the class looking hot as ever in a gray hoodie and dark blue jeans paired with white sneakers which complimented the strings of his hoodie. Wait... did I see someone else beside him?

It was Ashley again. Wtf? My blood started to shoot up but I controlled my emotions from getting the best of me. Hate to say it, but I was a mad at Shehry. I mean you DO NOT just ask a girl out on a date and show up with someone else in front of her. Against the law, dude.

Ashley will definitely be one of the issues I'd want to discuss with Shehry today on our little Starbucks date. Shehry sat down and glanced at me. I quickly looked away and from the corner of my eye, I could feel him stare at me.

Shehry's POV:

Yesterday was kinda fun at Nida's place. The way she pushed me down on her bed in anger and the tingles it gave me, her delicious chai and not to forget, that Richard Shane diary which had my name in it. I so badly want to find out what else is jotted down about me in that diary.

She sent me the essay yesterday evening and it was, without a doubt, exemplary. Her writing skills are amazing. Let's see how Briggs reacts after seeing my essay.

Ash had her transport issues again and I had to pick her up. I entered class and took my seat. My eyes had automatically shifted to Nida and they almost popped out. God, as much as I hate to admit it, she looked sexy as hell today. I couldn't help but stare at her. Not that I liked her or had feelings for her or anything, but she is quite beautiful. No wonder all the guys go gaga for her.

Blue eyes, hypnotize teri kardi aye meinu. I swear choti dress mein bomb lagdi aye meinu. AH ! SHEHRY SNAP OUT OF IT ! Wtf is my brain up to?!
