Chapter 5

I was quite tensed. I didn’t know the reason behind those unique emotions in his eyes. I wanted to ask him so many questions. I wanted to so many answers but I knew that it wasn’t the right time. My ankle was getting a little better so I decided to make pasta. After eating and watching a romantic movie, I slept.

****

The rays of the blazing sun fell on the closed eyes. I wanted to sleep more but then I realized that I’ve to practice with Ethan so I jumped out of my bed. I dressed up hurriedly and jogged to my school. I was breathing heavily but I reached the dance room. I saw that Ethan was standing in the room. His back was towards me. He was holding a mobile and talking to someone. His tone was very serious.

“Baby, I love you more than him,” he said.
My heart skipped a beat when I heard these words coming out of his mouth. He was talking to someone else. He loved someone else. I was a mere dance partner to him. I wanted to cry but I couldn’t impose myself on him. I wanted him to be free but one part of my heart was yelling to confess my love. It was unbearable to see him talking to someone else. I felt like someone was stabbing by heart with a knife. I wanted to snatch away his mobile and break it but I knew my etiquettes. I straightened up when I saw that he closed the phone. He was trying to convince a girl that he was the right choice for her. I thought that someone had ditched him. He turned and his jaw dropped down when he saw me standing in front of him. I didn’t want to make this situation awkward anymore so I fixed a grin on my and said, “Hello.”
“Hi,” he said without any expression. He must be nervous.
“I didn’t hear anything,” I said in a timid voice. Really? I wanted to make him comfortable but I said that I didn’t hear anything. He bowed his head and sighed in despair.
“I love Melissa,” he said while his eyes were glued to the floor. I held my chest continued saying, ‘Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry’ in my mind.
“She ditched me for Ricky,” he added and looked in my eyes. His eyes were watery and red. He was about to cry.
“I think we should practice tomorrow,” I said and smiled.
He just nodded his head and ran out of the dance room. His heart was broken and hurt but my heart stopped functioning. He confessed his love but he loved Melissa. I ran out of the dance room. It was becoming difficult for me to breath in the school building so I ran out and continued walking on the road. I looked at the sky which was covered with gloomy sky. It could rain any second but I didn’t care. I wrapped my arms around me when the cool breeze touched my body. The pain which I was feeling in my heart was unexplainable. It was weird and painful at the same time. No pain-killer could finish that pain. Rain drops started falling over me. My body didn’t react because I wasn’t paying attention at anything. I didn’t feel so bad even when my crush in eighth grade broke my leg by pushing me. I wasn’t hurt so bad even when my ex-best friend slapped me due to a dare by his boyfriend. I felt the same pain and hurt while my dad died but today, my body was numb. He would always be the only ruler of my heart. I would never cry again because my tears would tell everyone that I was broken from inside. I would hide my pain in my heart and hug the loneliness which was caused by Ethan. The pain was bittersweet.

Chapter 4

 

I turned and i was about to leave him in the library when I heard my name being called out by Ethan. I held my breath and regretted my decision of even coming in the school. I slowly turned and faced him with a nervous smile on my face.

“Where are you going?” He asked while walking towards me.

I shook my head violently and said,”I thought that you’re studying….so I shouldn’t d-disturb you.”

“Oh Dear, It’s okay. Now let’s go to the dance room.” He held my arm gently and dragged me out of the library.

His touch sent shivers down my spine. I couldn’t believe that he was holding my arm. It was like a dream come true. He was so close to me that I felt like current of thousands of volts were going through my body. The person who was my untouched dream had converted into a reality.
I didn’t know when we reached dance room and he left my arm. I looked around and saw a large empty room with mirrors surrounding me. I compared my Five foot Three inch height with Ethan’s perfect Six feet height. Then I looked closely in the mirror and compared my tanned skin with Ethan’s shiny white skin. I was about to compare our clothes when Ethan said,”Let’s dance.”

I turned to face him and my face was devoid of any emotion. Dance? Me? I wasn’t ready for it but before I could protest, Ethan played a soft song on his mobile and wrapped his warm arm around my waist. I straightened my spine and tried to make some space between us but he pulled me closer such that his warm breath was caressing my head. He held my one hand with his free hand and we intertwined  our fingers.

The soft music hit my ears and I began to wave my upper body a little according to the rhythm. It was almost effortless to dance with Ethan because he was just so perfect in dancing. He turned and turned while I followed him and the dance turned out to be really beautiful then I expected but suddenly my ankle twisted and I fell down.

“Ouch!” I screamed at the top of my lungs. Tears began to fall down from my eyes and I wrapped my hands around my ankle.

“Oh Gosh!” Ethan said and his voice was laced with care and concern. He kneeled down and touched near my ankle. It was painful and surprising at the same time. I let out a small moan in pain. Ethan looked at my face and then come closer to me. I looked at him with my eyes wide-opened waiting for his next action. He brought his index finger near my face and adjusted my spectacle at the right place. I exhaled a long breath which I was holding from a long period of time.

“Can you walk?” He asked with his eyebrows raised.

I simply nodded and tried to stand up but suddenly I lost my balance and fell. Before my body could hit the floor, Ethan held me. I stared in deep blue eyes which were the cure of all my pain.

“You can’t walk, Crystal.” He shook his head and picked me up in bridal style. I grabbed his colors tightly to protect myself from falling down and squeezed my eyes but he said,”I won’t ever let you fall. Believe me.”

I looked at him. He was smiling and amusement was plastered on his face. I loosened my grip on his colors and he walked out of the dance room. I didn’t avert my gaze for a single second. I was staring at him with lots of concentration.

He never talked to me before that dare but now, my small wound affected him. I was a mere lab partner for him but now, I was his dance partner. I believe that couples are made in Heaven by God. He makes them meet at the right time and the right place. Even if you think that you’re gonna remain alone forever but someone is made for you. You just have to wait for the right time. My right time had come. I was in Ethan’s arms. I lived my life in that small moment only. Being so close to him was the only thing I wanted. I saw care and friendship  from Ethan towards me on that one day. It won’t matter to me if I died after that day because my life was complete. I was sure about one thing that I was falling for Ethan. My first year’s crush was becoming my second year’s love. Love is a big word. It conveys dedication, devotion and pure love towards the one we love. I was dedicated and devoted towards Ethan. I didn’t expect anything in return. If he liked anyone else, I would have accepted it. If Ethan was happy just being friends with me then I was happy too. If he was happy to stay away from me then I was happy too. All I wanted was to see Ethan’s smile.

Suddenly, Ethan looked at me and I averted my gaze. I began to look at the blazing sky. We were out of the school building. I was feeling nervous because I could feel his eyes on me. I looked at him but he averted his eyes from me all of a sudden. His effort went in vain because I caught him. When we reached near his car, he put me down and opened the door for me. I sat inside and then he dropped me in front of my house. He picked me up and walked towards the door but I remembered that my mother was out for two weeks.

“Is anyone in the house?” Ethan asked me.

“My mom will come after five days,” I told him and handed him the keys which were in the pocket of my jeans.

It was difficult for him to open the door while I was in his arms but he managed and brought me inside my house.
“Leave me upstairs in my room,” I said in a timid voice. I was feeling like a burden for him so I wanted him to get free from this duty as soon as possible.

He finally brought me inside my house and laid me down on my bed. He pulled the covers over me. He leaned closer to my face. His warm breath was fanning my face and a tingling sensation was in my body. He leaned a little more and kissed on my forehead.

When his soft lips touched my forehead, I sighed and looked at him with my eyes full of love and emotions but I saw something else in his eyes. I saw pain, regret, tension and most of all, helplessness in his eyes. I felt like he wanted to cry but his face was without any emotion. He finally straightened and barged out of my room without saying any single word for me. What was he feeling? Did he regret kissing me? Did he regret dancing with me? Did he regret being friend with me? or Did he regret talking to me?

Chapter 3

I felt like I was the worst person of the world. I fought with my only friend. I didn’t care where my mother was. I was totally alone in my one BHK apartment. Moreover, I was surrounded my memories of Ethan. I was sitting on the floor. I brought my knees near my chest and wrapped my arms around them. I pressed my lips in thin line and looked around to see the mess I’ve created in my house. Suddenly, my gaze fell on a photo which was related to one of my memories.

I had told Ethan that I won’t participate in the dance competition. My first week was pretty boring. I got up late, ate and then slept again. I continued staring my mobile for any sign of the message from Ethan but I didn’t get a single message. It had been one week since I talked to him. I was standing outside my house. The blazing Sunday sun was making it hard for me to fully open my eyes. Suddenly, my mobile buzzed in the pocket of my jacket. I took it out and saw that there was a message. I opened it and my heart skipped a beat when I realized that it was a message from Ethan.

Ethan: Will you be my dance partner?
Me: Why do you think that I will agree?
Ethan: Because I think that you would like to experience it.
Me: I won’t dance.
Ethan: Please 😥
Me: No
Ethan: Please! Do it for me 🙂

My whole was trembling as I was a mobile on vibrate. He wanted me to dance with him. Wait! But what if it was another dare from his friends. I didn’t want to take risks.

Me: Is it a dare?
Ethan: Of course not! Oh Gosh! I know that it’s hard to believe me now but I want to apologize to you and I wanted to know you more so may I can get to know you more through this dance competition 😀

He really knew how to make me feel so special. I was feeling so happy that each part of my body was dancing with happiness. I wanted to jump inside the mobile and kiss him. I wanted to get a loudspeaker and shout, “I want to dance with you.” But I got a hold on my feelings replied.

Me: When should I meet you tomorrow (I’m not sure!)
Ethan: Okay. Meet me in the college library at nine  in the morning.
Me: Okay.

Oh My God! I couldn’t believe that Ethan wanted to be my dance partner. I couldn’t wait for tomorrow. My heart was dancing and singing. My body was trembling with nervousness and happiness. My mind told me to calm down as nothing is final but my heart told me to cherish every upcoming moment of my life. I smiled so hard that my cheeks began to hurt and after eating my dinner, I slept.

****

My alarm clock rang at eight. I borrowed a beautiful pink summer dress from my mother. She was quite happy with the fact that I was trying to groom myself. I applied a little lip-gloss and I thought that I was ready.
My journey to the school was quite relaxing as I was walking and listening songs on my iPod but everything slowed down as I reached the library. My heart skipped a beat. Everything was moving in slow motion around me. I took some heavy steps towards the door of the library. I pushed open the door and entered in the library. I looked around and found thousands of books surrounding me. For a second, I felt like he was playing another trick but all my doubts went away when I saw Ethan sitting on a chair and reading a romantic novel.
His hairs were messed up but he was looking so smart. His smooth and glowing pale skin made me feel like I wasn’t even worthy of standing beside him. I couldn’t dance with him. Everyone would laugh at me. Students would compare our couple as beauty and the beast. He was a beauty and I was a beast. I couldn’t be a part of dance competition when I had no talent. I lacked confidence in everything. I was nothing more than a geek. A geek whose one eye was in the book and the other eye on the notes. I couldn’t make him feel bad just because I couldn’t dance. I decided to not to participate. I was a coward and I didn’t want to show him that I was such a coward so I decided to skip meeting him. I decided to go away.

“I’ve come for you, my dear Rose,” he said and leaned closer to her face. She wanted to run away, but she felt as if her legs were glued to the floor.

“I’ll take away your soul and leave you lifeless,” he said while his cold breath caressed her face and sent an uncontrollable current down her spine.

Chapter 2

“Hell-hello.” I stuttered when I recognised the sexy voice of Ethan. His voice was soothing and had a calming effect on me.
“I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you. It was just a dare–”
“But you’ve hurt me,” I said and swallowed the big lump which was forming inside my throat. I wished that he hadn’t played that trick on me.
“I..I..” he trailed off. I was sure that he hadn’t got any good reason except that it was a dare. But all of a sudden, a question came in my mind.
“How did you get my number?” I asked confusingly. I wanted to know the answer but before I could hear any response, a feminine voice echoed in my ears. It was my mom. I was nervous so I hung up. I regretted this action because it was simply rude.
“Oh, sweetie.” She said and entered in my room. She looked around to see any sign of dirt or misplaced object but she didn’t find anything.
“Ah! This room is even cleaner than mine,” She said and sat beside me on my bed. She looked at me and grinned. It was a suspicious movement.
“What?” I asked irritated.
“Can I go out for two weeks?” She asked very hastily. Her voice was laced with nervousness. Her eyes were glued to the floor.
“With whom?” I asked because I knew that she was hiding something. She didn’t ask for my permission while looking in my eyes.
“Jonathan. Jonathan Kenway,” She said hesitantly. Her voice was timid and quivering.
I pulled my mom in a big hug. I pulled back and gave her a warm smile

.
“It’s your life, mom,” I said with an amicable grin.
“Oh! I’m just so lucky to have an understandable daughter like you,” she said and patted my head gently.
“I need to go and pack now,” she said excitedly and ran out of my room.
I pulled out the my diary which was kept beneath the pillow by me. I opened it and read a poem which was written by me for my dad. It was written on the day when I got the news that my dad was diagnosed of cancer.

You’re my life, Oh Dad!
Please don’t leave me ever.
I know that I’m a little bad.
But I want you forever.

God is so unkind
He is snatching you away
You care for me every time
Whether its night or day

I want god to take away my life
To save the breath of yours
I want god to save your life
Because you’re chaste and pure.

I smiled and tears were rolling down my cheeks.  My heart was heavy and I wanted to convey all the thoughts going through my mind so I took out my pen and began writing diary entry.

Dear Diary,

I’m writing after a long period of time. Yeah! I know that you’re angry with me but I’M SORRY. Well, It had been almost five years since my father died. I don’t forget to remember him every day. I just pray to god to keep him happy wherever he is. I know that lots of things change in five years. My mother has decided to move on. She thought that I won’t realise that she likes Jonathan. Being a co-worker in her office and a good friend, he has made a good place in the heart of my mother. I totally support and respect the decision of my mother but I’m in a dilemma. It’s not regarding Jonathan and mom but it’s regarding me. People say that true love happens only once. People who are lucky enough get a chance to live their life with the people they love but some people experience only heart-break. But is it easy to move on? Can I stop loving Ethan? Can I choose someone else over him? Can I crave for someone else? Can I want to kiss someone else? My biggest question is – Can love happen twice?

Good-bye.

I closed the diary and threw it on the other side of bed. I laid upon my bed, staring at the ceiling with teary eyes. I didn’t know when my crush converted into infatuation. I didn’t know why I felt bad when he played trick on me. I was thinking about everything related to love and Ethan when suddenly my mobile buzzed. I picked it up and saw that there was a message. I opened it and it was a message from Ethan.

Ethan: I’m sorry 😥
Me: I don’t wanna talk about this. Just tell me, How did you get my number???
Ethan: I took it from Lily 😛
Me: Go to hell  😡
Ethan: Please, sweetheart.

 

My heart skipped a beat when I read the message. He considered me a sweetheart. Sweat was running down my forehead. My whole body was trembling and my mind was blank. I raised my quivering fingers and typed my message.

Me: Why did you call me SWEETHEART ?
Ethan: Because you’ve a sweet heart 😛
Me: Huh! Good-bye.
Ethan: Wait! Did you expect something else?
Me: Why am I going to expect anything from you?
Ethan: Smart girl B) Are you coming next two weeks ?
Me: Nah! These two dance weeks are totally boring and useless. Moreover, It’s not compulsory to participate in dance competition so it’s a big NO-no for me.
Ethan: Okay. Good Bye 🙂

He sent the last message and I sighed in disappointment. I continues staring and re-reading his messages for two hours. I smiled each and every time when I read the word ‘sweetheart’ on my display screen. I wanted to hear his voice. I wanted to know how it would be like to  hear the word ‘sweetheart’ from his very own voice. I wanted him to call me ‘sweetheart’.
After eating my dinner and re-reading his message for about five more times, I slept.

****

“Crystal!” I heard a shout. I left Ethan’s shirt on the bed and ran towards the door. I opened it and saw a very worried looking Lily in front of me. She had changed a lot. Her long blonde locks were looking shiny and smooth. Her green eyes were calm, refreshing and comfortable. She had achieved a good model body through continuous workout and yoga.
“Why are you here?” I asked lazily. She ignored my question and entered in my room.
“Gross!” She screamed at the top of her lungs. I scowled at her and then looked around the drawing-room. It was really a gross. My clothes were lying all over the floor. My books were scattered over the table. The old boxes of Pizza and old wrappers of burgers were covering each part of my house. i couldn’t believe that It was MY house.

“I can’t believe that It’s YOUR house,” Lily said while shaking her head disappointedly.

“Um, You know the reason,” I said to her while scratching the back of my neck.
“Have you bathed today?” She asked while folding her arms across her chest.
I raised my eyebrows and then realised that I’ve not bathed from last one week. I even realized that I’ve not eaten anything from the last two days. Suddenly my stomach made a big, embarrassing noise.
“Oh, Dear,” Lily said and hugged my tightly.
“Don’t pity me,” I said firmly and pulled back to look in her eyes which were filled with sympathy. It was the only thing, people thought I was worthy of.
“I think you should move on,” She said politely.
“No!” I shouted.
I took a deep breath to calm myself down. I finally asked, “how can you expect this to me?”
She lowered her head and bit her lip nervously.”I think you should mar–”

“Shut up and get out!” I shouted so loudly that my head began throbbing.
She dilated her eyes at my sudden reaction. With fury brewing inside me, I held her arm tightly and dragged her towards my door.
“Wait, Crystal!” She shouted in a concerned way but it didn’t influence me at all. I pushed her forward. She stumbled a little but regained her balance soon. She turned to see me with tears in her eyes. I gritted my teeth and slammed the door on her face.
“I don’t want any sympathy,” I shouted at the door in a hope that she would be standing outside and hearing me.
“I’m happy with the memories of Ethan and–”
My throat was getting dry and never-ending tears were flowing out of my eyes.
“I don’t want to marry anyone else,” I said loudly and sat on the floor.
I was feeling very bad because I shouted on my only friend. Everyone had gone away. No one was there for me. I let them go away because they were all same. They showed me sympathy and gave me a useless advice. I was happy just being alone with the memories of Ethan.

*Chapter 1*

I held his shirt closer to my nose. I inhaled his sweet scent which filled my nostrils with love and pleasure. I wanted to touch him again. I wanted to talk to him again. I wanted to sit beside him again but Alas! Nothing was possible. I was alone in this vain world where my existence mattered to no one. My mother cared about me but I didn’t want to disturb her. I used to be an intelligent twenty-one years old girl. I was independent, strong and brave. I was the most luckiest girl of the world because I had Ethan. Ethan Smith. He was my everything. Small glimpses of memory passed through my mind.

It was the second year of college. My nineteenth birthday was about to come. I was sitting and studying in my library. My spectacles were on my nose. My shabby, brown hairs were tied into a pony-tail.
“Ethan Smith wants to talk to you!” Lily, my best friend screamed in my ears. Her green eyes were filled with enthusiasm and her blonde hairs were looking so smooth and straight that my face flushed with embarrassment. After comparing our personality for a short period of time, I realised what she had screamed.
“What!” I exclaimed in surprise. I adjusted my spectacles with my index finger just in front of my eyes.
“Yeah, babe.” She nodded her head with excitement.

I didn’t pay attention on any boy of my college. The players, the jocks and the jerks were not my type. Actually, I wasn’t their type. I used to wear baggy shirts and outdated Blue jeans with no sense of fashion at all. What could they expect from a girl who had got admission through a scholarship. But Ethan Smith was the only boy who made a special spot in my heart. He was my lab partner. We never talked to each other at all. He was a charming guy with limited number of friends and good grades. i don’t know why I felt so good with him. I had a crush on him.

“I think he need some help with Chemistry assignment,” I said in a timid voice because I wanted something more. I wanted him to talk to me about something which is not included in academics.

“No!” Lily shouted convincingly. “He wants to talk to you about something else but I’m not sure–”

“Crystal!” I heard my name being called out loud. I looked at the right side and my brown eyes met a beautiful pair of blue eyes which were swallowing me. His light brown hairs were covering his eyes partially. I was sitting numb, without any response.

Ethan Smith was standing just a few centimetres away from me but the smell of his cologne filled each and every part of my body with pleasure. I was craving for his one touch. Suddenly, I felt that every eye present in the library was on me. I sank in my chair and covered my face with a book, ignoring Ethan.

“Can I talk to you?” I heard his voice near me. I looked up and saw that he was standing just beside my chair. I was trapped. I had to talk to him but I didn’t know how to speak to him. I took a deep breath and mustered all my courage to stand up. My legs were quivering and I wanted to run away. I could feel that my cheeks were getting hot and pink with blushing. My eyes were glued to the floor. I wanted to look up but my body wasn’t responding as per my wish.

“Will you be my friend?” He asked in a velvety voice. I couldn’t resist my urge to look at him. When I saw his face, I felt like I was transported to a world of fantasy. I was a Princess and he was my Prince.

“Ahem-ahem” Lily’s annoying voice snapped me out of my dreams and I saw the half-curious and half-nervous face of Ethan.
I opened my mouth to respond but my throat and lips were dry. However, I managed to whisper, ” Yes”

Ethan sighed loudly as if he was holding a big bulk of air inside his lungs and grinned ear-to-ear. He kneeled down and bowed his head. I felt like I was a queen. He said, “I’m honoured that you accepted my proposal.”

I smiled when I saw this cute pose of Ethan. I wanted to touch him and wrap him in my arms but my thoughts were interrupted by loud and evil laughs. I looked up and saw that a couple of Ethan’s friends were laughing hard while holding their stomach firmly. I averted my gaze and saw Ethan was now sitting and looking at me while biting his lower lip tightly so as to hide his laughter. It was the most embarrassing moment of my life. My eyes filled with tears and my face became red. I spun on my heels and barged out of the library. Lily was shouting behind me but I ignored her protests and continued running and running until my foot hit a rock and stumbled. I was unable to gain my balance and fell down. Large bunch of people around me were laughing at me. I wiped my tears with the back of my hand and stood up to run again but I felt a hand around my waist. I straightened up. My heart was in my mouth. As I felt that the grip had loosened, I slowly turned and saw Ethan in front of me. He was looking guilty and embarrass.

“I…” I trailed off. I couldn’t find any word to insult him because it was the most difficult task of the world.

“It was a dare but I didn’t mean to–”

When my hand met his cold cheek, He stopped abruptly. I didn’t want to slap him but it was an involuntary movement. I was angry, frustrated and hurt. He shouldn’t have hurt me. I couldn’t stand and see his face anymore. Everything was beyond my imagination. I didn’t expect to slap him especially on the day when he talked to me but I didn’t expect him to even play with my feelings either. I turned on my heels and ran away from there as soon as possible. My feet were crushing the yellow-autumn leaves beneath them and the gloomy sky was making my heart sink.

I ran for around twenty minutes but I reached my home. As I opened my door, I heaved a sigh of relief. I closed the door and collapsed on the sofa. My chest was rising and falling pretty fast. I was in taking big bulk of air with opened mouth. My eyes were swollen, red and never-ending tears were shedding from them. I wiped the tears and went to my room. I opened my cupboard and took out an ancient-looking, brown diary gifted by my father before he died. I opened it and began reading the poem I’ve written for Ethan.

You are just so close to me,
Yet you’re so far.
I want you, my love to see,
My love and My heart.

I know that my love is true,
But do you really care?
 Your eyes are like deep-sea of blue
Why life is never fair?

I want you close to me,
I want you to care.
I want you to be with me,
Then my life would be fair.

I smirked at my childish poem and scribbled it violently with a pen which was already inside the diary. I tore the paper and threw it away violently. I covered my face with both of my hands and tried to calm myself down. I couldn’t let myself feel so hollow just due to his mere tricks.

‘Escaping night with you without shadows on the wall,
My mind is running wild, trying hard not to fall’

The sound of the irritating ringtone echoed in my ear. I loved this song but after my mini heart-break, I was hating that song. I saw the screen and it was an unknown caller ID. I picked it up and said, “Hello.” My voice was ruder than I expected.

“Hey, Crystal.” A deep masculine and sexy voice came from the other side.
