It was the emotional scene, they know it's not the end of the world, they can be together again in college or in the same school in higher secondary still it won't be the same no matter what.

David Pov
I hung my head down not much affected with last day of school but with my broken heart how much I awaited for this day, planning numbers of times how to purpose, what to gift her, everything was ruined, I wanted nothing but her happiness, but I am disturbed seeing Neil hugging Nancy for the whole time. I was in dilemma, wasn't Neil dating Sweety, I can see Sweety is hurt and sad but why isn't she saying anything to them, she is unaffected by them but she looks heart broken. He decided no matter what whether she love me or not but I love her, and want to see her happy if Neil is not serious about her I won't spare him, he can't play with Sweety feelings but before that I want to know what she feels Soon it was time to leave, party was over, all the Junior were packing off everything and few seniors left for their other plans of the evening. I can see Sweety is motionless sitting in her usual place of the class. She was not moving ever after Ashley and Nikki announces to leave. Nancy and Neil finally left each other. Everyone was in their emotional turmoil nobody is watching anyone except me. As I was eagerly waiting everyone to leave and talk with Sweety. Soon everyone left one by one, Sweety was so lost in her thoughts she didn't notice everyone left, we were the only one left. I composed myself and went near to her.
"You are not happy", I told her and she came out of her trance
Sweety PoV
The pain was too much, it was unbearable, how I had imagined for this day, how it is. I always Miss farewell that I became but I wanted David as Mr farewell. I was sitting in my usual place, I can hear Rick and Bryan singing but I couldn't move, I felt stuck in the very place, I was hoping may be what I observing it to be all wrong and David would purpose me today but he don't want to see my face. I lost him completely. I was drown in my sorrow I was oblivious to my surrounding.
"You are not happy", I heard some one near my neck and I came out of my trance.
I turn around and saw David, I was shocked to see him, I looked here and there no one was there, we were alone.
" Huh" , I said not understanding what he is actually asking.
David took deep breath and said in his masculine voice which always melt my heart, " Sweety, you are not happy".
"W Why? Do you think so? ", I asked him nervously.
" You see, Neil is not serious about you, I have seen you guys always smiling and he teasing you most of the times, I felt you both were doing good all this days but today I can see you are hurt and he is least bothered, he is busy with Nancy and you are not even angry at him, why are so bearing all pain? " , he asked like he is having difficult to say all this like he will vomit anytime.
"Where has Neil came from, why will I be angry ? ", I asked him confused, I am not getting what he is saying.
" God, don't you get angry and hurt when your love avoids you", he asked pissed
What is to him, he hurts me and ask me whether I am hurt or not
"It kills me", I said furiously and crying
" Then, why you were mum, why didn't said anything to Neil" , he wake me angrily. Again he bought Neil, have he lost it.
"Why will I say anything to him", I shouted at him, I don't care if anyone hear me, this boy is pissing me off too bad.
" f**k Sweety, don't you love him, aren't you dating him? ", he asked back shouted.
" What???? Nooo, have you lost it, we are just friendd", I shouted again, what the hell is he saying.
"What?? But I saw you both hugging in club, you called him darling, you both confessed your love, heck even Nancy was present there", He asked me confused.
" God David, can't I hug my friend, which era you come from? " , I asked him furiously, how can he judge me and Neil like that.
"It means you both don't love each other and not dating anymore? ", he asked suddenly being happy, which melt my heart but I haven't forgiven him for judging me.
" No I don't love him, and I am sure even he doesn't me love me either in romantic way, and I am not dating him, never dated him ever " , I said in high tone. This is hurting me more, I can bear him avoiding me but judging me I felt this hurting me much
He crushed me suddenly in a hug I was surprised and I startled. He was wrapping me in his arms as if I will be disappear if he loosen a hold.
"Oh god, in my foolishness I almost lost you", He whispered in my ears.
" What do you mean? ", I whisper asked him
He broke the hug and hold my shoulder and look into my eyes, I just want to be lost in his eyes, I love him so much.
" Sweety I am thankful to myself, I didn't make my ego more than my love" , he said happily
"What do you mean?", I asked him confused, this boy first don't talk to me then when he talks he judge me, he talk in riddles. Ughhhh.
He hold my waist and brought me close to him, which made me so happy and shy and said huskily, "Well I will clear you, I felt you and Neil are dating each other, I felt heartbroken, I felt cheated, I felt lost but it was neither of your fault so I didn't come in between, but my heart was broken ego was hurt so I avoided you all this months but today I saw you sad and not happy with Neil so I put my ego aside and decided to talk with you and even punch Neil if he was hurting you ".
I felt fresh tears form in my eyes, I knew he loves me, I always knew, my heart knew we belong to each other, if I didn't love him before I fell in love with him now, even tough he was hurt he put his ego above his love, just say in words David.
" Why were you hurt David " , I asked him acting innocent
"Because I love you, you don't know the hell I went through when I saw you and Neil, I felt a part ripped from my body, I felt I couldn't live anymore", He said hugging me tight, moving his hand on my bare back given me different sensation.
I hugged him tight I wanted feel him and poured my feelings, my pains, my heart aches which I bottled in my heart, " I love you too David, the day you start avoiding me, it was hurting me so much, I waited and waited, you will call me now, you will message me now, but no you avoided me like some s**t, it was so unbearable", I broke down confessing my feelings
He cupped my face and said, " I am sorry baby, in my stupidity we both went through hell".
"Stupid, stupid, you hurt me so much, because of you I broke down in canteen, making a scene of myself", I said making a fist and hitting him in should.
" woah, calm down, I am sorry baby " , he said holding my hand.
"Blissed" is they what they called, the worst day turn out to be the best day of my life.
We realised it was late and school gate may be closed by now. We came out and saw the guards almost closing the gate. We ran fast and shouted. The guards gave us curious looks as what we were doing all this while.
What a crazy day, David and I look each other and burst out laughing. David called his driver and we got inside his car, he drop me on my house and he drove away.
