Two days passed, as both of them were busy with their presentation and assignments but that didn't stop them from videocalling each other, from the moment they wake up till bidding each other goodnight.
After their tiresome days, Elsa sighed during their break,"Gosh! Now I can relax and get some sleep." Ray and Elsa were having their lunch together inside their classroom and he laughed," Yes..Yes .. good work.." while patting her head using his left hand.
Elsa smiled and went closer to him," You too,baby! you were amazing.... I went ' Waahhhh!!' for your confidence and presentation style.When will I be like that.." and sighed.
" You were amazing.. I loved yours and you pretty much know that the only reason I was confident was because of me being a PREFECT during high school."
Elsa knew about him being a Prefect from Adina. It didn't take her by surprise at all , with his academic scores and confidence aura around him. She was really proud of him.
She didn't really care about the badges given at her school as she never took her studies seriously, but now she regretted at not trying as she felt that having one badge was cool.
All she knew was that she was doing well till her fourth grade and during her fifth grade, her parents decided to swap her second language to the language which gave her nightmares till her tenth grade - Hindi.
She sucked at it as she joined when everyone finished covering the basics and that's how her failing history began.She just gave up on Hindi and tried to pass everytime which eventually made her give up on every subjects as she got used to failing. She didn't have bad academics nor an excellent one.Overall, she was an average student.
She grimaced at her academics when she entered college as she was embarassed to tell her grades in front of all the toppers in her class which is everyone except me.
The patting on her head made her snap out of her thoughts and she smiled warmly at him.
Ray asked her," Do you want to go out today?"
"Hell! yeah...after all this work, we deserve a break." Elsa jumped while putting her hands up in the air.
Ray laughed at her antics but his smile froze when he heard her say," Let me ask if Adina and Aaron wants to come."
As Elsa turned to go, Ray pulled her back which made Elsa stumble but regained her balance soon. As the saying goes," Practise makes everything Perfect.
She thought inside ,' Why does he like pulling me back so much?'
She looked at him raising a brow and he said,
" A-L-O-N-E"
Her eyes widened in surprise , Ray noticing that said," What? It's been ages since we went out alone. The only time I remember is when we ate our lunch after getting together and that was like three weeks ago."
Elsa smiled and hugged his arms," Aww..You are so cute. Did you miss me that much?"
Ray rolled his eyes and said," Miss? What miss? I did not."
She chuckled and teased," Sure.. you didn't... so you wouldn't mind them joining us, right?" while she pointed at Aaron and Adina who were discussing something.
When she didn't get any answer from him, she called out," Adinaaaa..." which made Adina turn to her and raise her hand implying 'What?'
On hearing her, Ray suddenly grabbed her said,"Yes ..Yea... Happy now?"
Elsa grinned and told Adina," I like your dress" which made Adina smile. She turned to Ray and grinned,"What did you say? I didn't hear."
Ray let out a deep sigh and said slowly," Yes, my dear princess. I missed you a lot... Can you grace me with some of your time so that we could have a date?"
Elsa laughed at his dramatic lines and said," Ahem.. Sure .. why not.. my dear cute prince."
Both of them laughed outloud at their cheesy, overdramatic lines.
....
After college, Ray asked her," Where do you want to go?"
"Umm... Welll---" Her phone began to ring as she was thinking. On taking her phone out, she saw it was her dad.
"Hey dad.. "
" When will you reach home?"
" I will be late.. Why? " Elsa answered puzzled.
" Reach home fast.. we have to go somewhere later.. okay?" Her dad urgently said.
"What? ..Umm okay..." Elsa answered disappointedly and hung up.
Ray noticed her sadness and asked," What happened?"
" Dad wants me home early.. I'm so sorry for this."
Ray asked her worriedly," Is everything okay at home?"
" Yeah.. he just said that he is taking us out somewhere.. I'm sorry for cancelling on you."
"Babe.. It's okay.. we will just drink at our usual place -Capital, and get going.. Is that okay?"
" Yeah... but I'm still sorry.. "
Ray pulled her along as he was crossing the road and said," I get to have twenty minutes alone with you.. I'm happy with that.. Even a minute alone with you makes me happy.. So it's okay.. " and brought her closer to him as they reached the shop.
Elsa smiled at him and hugged him tightly which surprised him. He smiled and hugged her back.
They ordered her favourite drink and discussed when they will have their next date and where as they waited for their order.
Soon, they drank and left the shop to catch a cab as it was getting late and she needed to get home. Both of them were exhausted and they felt their bodies giving up.
As soon as both of them hit the seat, they groaned in relief as they leaned backwards to the soft cushion.He snuggled closer to her to rest a little.Ray had his head on her shoulder while Elsa just held his hand and tried to stay awake as one of them should stay awake during the ride.
Elsa looked at him sideways to find his face close to him. She looked at his lips and blushed,' Elsaaa!! what are you thinking...' her heart scolded her.
Her mind said,' But he's so cute.. look at him... all vulnerable.. a small peck won't hurt anyone.'
'No..No... Elsa .. don't... Stop it before you regret it...' her heart argued and it won as Elsa shook her head from her thoughts and distracted herself by calculating the sum on each number plates of any vehicles she sighted on.
As she was calculating her third or fourth plate, she felt herself being hugged tightly and some softness near her neck. She froze a little which made it easier for Ray to access her neck.
He slightly gave her small kisses from the base of her neck till he reached her cheeks. He continued giving kisses on her cheek and as that wasn't enough, he bit on her cheek.
Elsa gasped at the pain and came back to reality. She could still feel some wetness on her cheek and could remember how soft it was. ' So this was how it felt for him that day.'
She couldn't stop herself from grinning and touching her cheek like an idiot. It was such a irony that she couldn't remember getting a cheek kiss from her ex. 'Did I? ... I don't even remember any of the dates I had with him.. Hell with a kiss'
She turned to the guy who is making her feel all sweet inside and gave a kiss on his forehead. She was amazed that he gave her kisses in his half sleepy and half awake state.
Ray smiled when he felt her kiss which made her giggle.She pinched his cheeks," Why are you so adorable?"
Ray frowned when he felt his cheeks being pulled and slowly snuggled closer to her. Now, it was again Elsa's turn to freeze. She was facing him when she pinched his cheeks and him moving closer to her made his lips nearer to her's. If she went forward, that's all needed for her to close the deed.
It was like God telling her to kiss the damn guy already. She could do it and tell him that it was an accident if he asks but, the thing that worried her the most was whether she could stop with a small peck.
As she was debating on her next move, she raised her head to see him staring at her deeply.She could see the desire and drowsiness deep within his eyes which made her throat ache a little and blush. She sighed internally, ' You are killing me..'
She steeled her heart,as he was staring at her intently more so at her lips, while cursing inside,' Damn it..'
