"Okay!! Elli, why are you here? Don't wanna enjoy the rides?? "He asked.
"Umm..no! I'm afraid "I lied bitting my lower lip.
"Will you dance with me then? "He asked hopefully.
"But- "
"No but's, "he said and pulled me in the middle of the street where a violinist was playing.
He slid his hand around my waist and we both glided on the soft music, he turned me whenever the violinist changed his note.
"Not bad Mr.Cromwell, "I said while dancing, "from the clash of clans to dance ...I'm impressed "
"My lady, I was in a war when you approached. Now, you'll see what Real Cromwell's are! "He chuckled and his eye's pierced mine. I held it for sometime then looked down.
We were gathering people's attention, many of them surrounded us and started cheering, some of the couples even joined us. This made me uncomfortable, hundreds of eyeballs were on us, more importantly at me.
I was feeling dizzy but the feeling worsened when those pale blue eyes met mine, there was something that I never saw in those eyes, anger maybe. Then the places changed and now I was looking at those green eyes of Nicole. She tightened her grip on him. I felt that someone stabbed me right in my gut.
"I'm not feeling well, sorry, I need to go "with that I left Steve and was on my way back to the room.
I had almost covered 1/4 th distance when another pair of legs accompanied me. I looked up only to see those blue eyes looking down at me.
"Is he your boyfriend? "He asked bluntly.
"Who? Steve? "He nodded "No, he isn't "
"But the dance? "
"Random thing. We are just..umm..just know each other. "I completed.
"So, why did you leave the place? "Chris asked after thinking for some time.
"Because I was feeling dizzy, "I told the truth.
"Why? "He stopped suddenly.
I wanted to tell him, answer him, and I did, "I'm claustrophobic "
He just looked at me for some time and then pulled me into his chest. He wrapped his strong arms around me and hugged me and I hugged him back.
