I should have stopped wanting him the moment he called me sister. But how do you stop craving someone who was never supposed to be yours? I've liked Shardul Rajput since the 8th grade-since the first time he leaned in too close, his voice teasing but his eyes dark with something I was too young to understand. Since the first time his fingers brushed mine a little too slowly, a touch that meant nothing to him but sent my pulse racing. Back then, it was just a crush. A stupid, impossible crush on my brother's best friend-the guy who danced like the world melted around him, the guy every girl in school wanted. But I was different. I was Anuj's sister, and that meant I was untouchable. And so, he stayed away. The teasing turned into casual nods in the hallway. The playful glances became fleeting, unreadable stares. The warmth in his touch vanished, replaced by careful distance. And just when I thought I could move on-just when I convinced myself that his hands, his voice, his damn intoxicating presence didn't affect me anymore-he went and ruined everything. Because last night, he pulled me aside at a party. Last night, his breath was warm against my ear. Last night, his fingers curled around my wrist, tight and possessive. And last night, he whispered my name like it meant something. I know this is dangerous. I know this is forbidden. I know I should walk away before it's too late. But then he looks at me like that-like I'm not just Anuj's sister, but something more-and suddenly, I don't care about the rules anymore.

It wasn't necessarily the way that he would talk, even though have of the time I had to ask him what he meant. It wasn't even the way that he would try to tease me about my height even though he wasn't all that tall himself. Maybe it was the way that he would chuckle under his breath when he had to explain something to me (more than once I might add) Or maybe it was the way that he would go out of his way to meet up with me in the hallways right before my algebra class just so we could hear how the others day was going (which almost made us late to class on numerous occasions) Or maybe it was even the way that he would compliment me on the rare occasion (He had told me once that I looked beautiful with glasses even though I hated them and preferred my contacts more) It could've even been the fact that when he spotted me in the hallways and would leave his friends just to come and talk to me. Even though I would point out the fact that he left his friends, he would just smile and chuckle which would cause a blush to creep up onto my features. All I knew at the time was that I was falling in love with one of the smartest people I had known. I prayed that by some miracle the feelings would go away, even though I knew they wouldn't. After graduation, it would be a long time before we crash into each other again. If I would've known that I would find him again in the future, I would've prepared myself better. But as I stood there, staring into those blue eyes of his, I knew that I had fallen in love with him all over again. ((Also none of the pictures are mine, all credit goes to the original artists))
