What is stopping us?

Not everything is what people say.

Katie had left and Alizeh gave me a sarcastic smile and went upstairs. I can tell that she was upset. I don't know why Katie did that, I know that she has always wanted Meera and I to be together but she crossed the line trying to make Alizeh feel bad and I don't like that. I followed her to her room and she was getting ready to go to sleep. She was in a short black night gown and I couldn't keep my eyes off her.

"Hello?!? Earth to Rahul"

"Oh yeah sorry."

She scoffed and then Kate's down on her bed.

"Goodnight."

"Goodnight? Just like that?"

"Haan what else do you want me to do? Sing you a lullaby?"

She was mad and I know it. She has every reason to be mad after what happened.

"Nahin. But maybe you can show me a dream."

I walked towards her bed and sat down. Pulling the sheets that were covering her. It exposed her legs, without any caution my hands reached her thighs and Alizeh was still trying to act as if she was mad but who can stay mad at me? Right?

I kissed her neck and left traces of kisses up to her jawline. I looked at her and smiled, a smile also creeped on Alizeh's face. I took the strand of hair getting in her way and tucked it into her ear. I place a delicate kiss on it and went towards her lips. Then the phone rang.

"Ughhh!"

I started to whine as Alizeh got up and answered it. I just sat back admiring the back of her body.

"Don't worry it's fine."

I was to busy that I didn't notice that the phone call was coming from my phone. I notice and got up.

"Maybe it's for me. Give it here."

She handed the phone and I started to talk.

"Hello?"

"Hello"

It was a soft woman's voice.

"Yes uhh do you need help with anything? Are you looking for someone something."

"Nahin but uh can you tell me who I'm speaking to just to make sure who I'm talking to."

"Rahul naam toh suna hoga"

I joked around with that when I was in high school. I was the popular guys so I had to introduce myself properly.

The woman also giggled.

"Wow you don't remember me? Kuch kuch Hota hai Rahul, Tun Nahi samjhoge"

My eyes widened and I was shocked. Can it be her? No it can't be. We haven't talked in years how did she get my number?

"M-MEERA?!?"

"Haan."

"Holy shit meera!"

I started smiling like crazy. It looked as if I was in middle school and my crush just called me. I saw Alizeh staring at me in confusion but right now she was the last thing on my mind.

But at the same time I was mad. If she had my number than why did she wait until now to call me?!? There was pure silence until she said something.

"Umm actually Rahul I called you to invite you to a wedding?"

I was confused I didn't know Katie was getting married.

"No not Katie."

If it's not Katie than who can it be. Oo Aman! Meera's brother

"No you idiot. Meeree shaadi."

My face dropped. The whole world stopped and I felt dizzy. She's getting married? But how? Why? I don't know why I felt a sharp pain in my chest as if she had just stabbed it with a knife and hasn't taken it out. I didn't say anything s I was in shock.

"Rahul? Your gonna come right."

No! Of course not! Why would I? But she's my best friend. I should. I should be there. But it's gonna be weird. Im not gonna go

"Yes. I would go"

"Ok but-."

I hung up. I didn't want her to keep on talking a bout her wedding. I can't believe she's getting married.

Alizeh looked at me and went upstairs.

How could she get married? I mean I know that she has very right but.

"M-MEERA?!?"

He screamed her name and it was as if he saw Kareena kapoor or something cuz his whole face lit up and he was smiling like crazy. Meera? isnt that his old friend? The one that he still couldn't get over her. He's never smiled like that with me. He started screaming and smiling. I don't know why but I just feel like Rahul would never love me.

Tears were trying to escape from my eyes but I held them in. Would he go back to her if they see each other again? Was I just a distraction?

I went upstairs before tears can run down. I went into the bathroom and took a shower.

I got out and went downstairs. Rahul was sitting down watching tv. I made some coffee and sat next to him. He was busy watching the tv that I don't think he noticed I was there. I kept on throwing glances at him but he didn't even turn to look at me. He got up and went towards the kitchen. He picked up a glass and poured some tequila I quickly got up and ran to him. I got the glass and threw in the sink.

"What the fuck Alizeh!"

"Yeah what the fuck! You promised me you would stop drinking"

I hold his hand before he got the bottle. He snatched his hand away.

"Not everything is what people say."

He snatched the bottle from my hand and went upstairs.
