The Heart Thief♥

♥ CHAPTER 15 ♥

At 7 pm,
all gathered at the decided location.

Raghav, the guide, said, ' Since, it's mid evening, we will start activities from tomorrow morning. Right now, we will have dinner and then we can watch a documentary film. '

Bela sighed, ' ohh god! Movie and that too documentary! '

Mahir giggled hearing that.

Even Raghav heard that. He asked, ' Any problem, Miss..?'
Bela replied, '  Bela Sharma. No problem, Sir.'

Raghav laughed, ' Ahh! Bela! Beautiful name! Just like you. By the way, I am not that oldie. You can call me Raghav. '
Bela nodded.

Mahir didn't like it. He said, ' How about Raghav Bhai? Since, you are elder than us.'

Raghav chuckled.
' Definitely, you can call me that. But for this pretty lady, it's just Raghav. ', he said indicating Bela.

Mahir's blood started boiling hearing that.

Vikrant understood the situation and said,' Let's go for dinner. '

Raghav was walking ahead and the students were following him.
Mahir was walking with Bela.

He thought of initiating the talk but luck was not in his favour today.
Bela's leg slipped and she was about to fall.
Before Mahir could hold her, Raghav held her by her waist.

Mahir clenched his hands into a fist in anger.

Raghav released Bela and said, ' Careful, pretty lady.'
Bela nodded and said, ' Thank you. '

Raghav replied, ' No need for thanking me. I would love to help you again. '

Now, it was enough for Mahir. He gritted his teeth and said, ' Thank you,  Raghav. But, you need not to help her. I am there for my girl. '

Bela snapped her head in his direction, ' Huh?'

Mahir tried to rectify the blunder committed by him, ' I mean, we all are there to help our friend.'

Vikrant took Mahir to a corner and said, ' What are you doing, buddy?'

Mahir was still angry. He said, ' What am I doing? That brand ambassador of fevicol is continuously trying to flirt with my Bela. Today, he saved her from falling. What if tomorrow he start falling for her? No, Not even in my dreams I would let that happen. '

Vikrant said, ' Calm down, Mahir. You are overreacting. Even you are flirty.  Ain't you?'

Mahirr replied, ' Correct it, Vikrant. I was flirty. But after meeting Bela, things have changed. Now, I don't even like to look at any random girl. '

Vikrant nodded in understanding.

Both of them joined the group for dinner.

After dinner,
They gathered in the back side area of their tents to watch the movie.

( Movie night set up)

Before Raghav could say something, Mahir grabbed the opportunity and offered Bela to sit with him.
Bela happily agreed.

Mahir smirked and thought, ' Mr. Fevicol, not again. Try your luck some other time and definitely with some other girl. '

Mahir laid down on the mattress and Bela laid beside him. 

The documentary was really boring. Moreover, Bela was tired too. She slept soon.

Mahir was watching the movie when he felt a weight near his chest.
He looked at the sight of the sleeping beauty lying beside him, wait, correction, lying on him.

Now, movie was no more fascinating for Mahir. The only thing that was fascinating him was BELA.

Suddenly, Bela grabbed his shirt's collar tightly. Mahir remembered the bus incident.

Mahir asked Vish in a low voice , ' Vish, Does Bela have any problem while she sleeps? '

Vish replied, ' Nothing serious, Mahir. It's just that after the death of her grandmother, Bela, often has nightmares while sleeping. Earlier, she used to sleep with her grandma. But, now, she has to sleep alone, to which she is not habituated. Many times, I tried to sleep with her. But, I guess, she was lacking a warmth which probably you are providing her right now. That's why she is sleeping peacefully. '

Mahir smiled. He lightly kissed her hairs. There was a serenity on Bela's face.

The movie was over. Vish went to wake up Bela but Mahir stopped her.

He said, ' Don't wake her up, Vish. She is in deep and peaceful slumber. I'll carry her to the tent. '

Vish nodded.

Mahir carefully picked Bela in his arms and walked towards the tent with a never ending smile on his face!
