Love Mode On

Chapter 7

Nora's POV:--

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"No."

"Yes." Sarah and Harry hugged each other out of joy.

"Hey that's cheating." I gasped.

"Whatever. I don't know, you are joining us on the trip." Sarah concluded, leaving no room for me to protest.

"Okay........" I said defeated.

"Come on, Nora. Don't make a big deal out of it, just tag along, it will be fun." Sophia rolls her eyes.

Sophia was Harry's Girlfriend. They both had been dating each other for two years. She is nothing but rude to everyone. I and Sarah not at all like her. But since she is his girlfriend we had no choice but to tolerate her. She never liked our friendship with him.

I was about to give her a reply, when Sarah lowly whispers to me, "She's not worth it."

Our college was taking us on a trip and I didn't wanted to go. But seems like I don't have a choice. Both my friends were hell bent on taking me with them.

We were walking towards the canteen after attending whole three lectures. I haulted my steps, finally realizing that I left my cell phone in the class. They turn around and gave me look 'What's the matter?'

"I left my cell phone in the class. You guys go, I will meet you guys at canteen." I said to them.

"You better be quick. I don't want to be a third wheel." Sarah muttered, referring to the couple, who was kissing each other.

With that I turned around and started walking towards the class. Just as I was about to enter the class, someone grabs a hold of my bag and pulls me towards them. It was him. My eyes were wide open and my breath hitched seeing how close we were.

Whereas my heart was thumping so loudly. He was bending himself until his head was in the same level as me.

"Are you going to the college trip, Nora?" He asked in his deep husky voice.

"Ye-Yes." I stuttered.

"What about you, Ryan?" I asked him, after composing myself.

"I wasn't, but now I will." He grinned.

Making my legs feel like jelly."

"I can't wait for this trip." He whispered near my ears and placed a kiss on it.

With that he left leaving me shocked and blushing.

The thought that starts roaming my mind was 'When is this trip going to start?'

***

I was seating on the stairs at the ground waiting for Harry's basketball practice to end. He was the captain of the basketball team. He loves playing basketball and is very good at it. Although, he was tired, since they were practicing for the past two hours, but there was big smile on his face.

I was lost on my thoughts, when I felt someone sitting beside me. Goosebumps arises on my body, when I look who it is.

"Hi!! What are you doing here?" He asked staring at me.

It was pretty late, almost everyone had exited the college. It was only me, him and the basketball team.

"Waiting for Harry." I replied, to which he nods.

"I am feeling jealous of him." He suddenly stated.

"And why is that, Ryan?" I asked raising my eyebrow at him.

"Because he has someone waiting for him during the practice." He said looking at Harry, who was busy passing the ball to Tom.

"Even you do. You has your many girls waiting for you." I chuckled.

"But I want that someone to be you." He said looking at me. He came closer to me and place his hand on mine which was on my lap.

"You know why I was angry with you when you kissed me on that day?" He asked suddenly making me curious as well as nervous.

"W-W-Why?" I asked nervously.

"That was my very first kiss." He stated, making me shocked. My mouth was literally hung open.

"You got me. For a second I thought it was true." I giggled, making him frown.

"I am serious, Nora." He placed his other hand on my chin and made me look at him. The moment I look in his eyes, all I could see is his honesty.

"I-I a-am sorry." I said guilty.

One side of me was happy, because I was his first kiss. While the other side of me was quite guilty and ashamed. That I stole his kiss due to a stupid tradition.

"You don't need to be." He said with a smile, making him look even more handsome than he already is.

"I am glad that I had my first kiss with you." He claims, while placing a kiss on the side of my lips, making me flushed.

"I think I like you." He said with so much intensity in his eyes, making my insides melt.

His eyes went on my lips and then on my eyes, as if asking my permission to kiss them. I closed my eyes and the next I know he places his lips on mine. He was kissing me so passionately that I was finding it hard to believe that I was his first kiss. He was biting my lower lips making me gasp. He took that opportunity to enter in my mouth.

After running out of breath, he pulls away his lip from mine. Only to place is head against mine. We both were breathing hard.

After regaining my breath, I asked him the question that was roaming on my mind. And obviously my face was as red as beetroot right now.

"So are you a virg......?" He cuts me off horrified and pulls away laughing.

"Obviously not. It's just that I always wanted to had my first kiss with someone special." He said looking away.

"Oh!! With whom?" I asked with a tight smile, knowing that what he will say might hurt me. He stands up and looks up at the sky.

"My first love." He said with a blank look on his face.

I shifted on my seat, slightly hurt and uncomfortable.

"I first saw her at our house, she had came there with her Mom. Who was my Mom best friend. She was one of the prettiest girl I had ever saw. She was different. And there at the dinner I fell for her unknowingly." He narrated.

I curl my hand into a first tightly, to the point that my nails was digging in my hand. It was painful, but that pain was nothing compared to the pain I am feeling right now.

"After that I kept running into her at school. I don't know how but we became friends. After some years, I gather courage and asked her out." He said with a pained look on his face.

All this while I kept quite. A single tear falls from my eye, I quickly wipe away before he can notice it.

"She said no. But what hurt me the most was that the reason she gave me was totally a lie." He clench his fists.

"Promise me, you won't hurt me like she did. Promise me, that you won't lie to me." He said turning around and look at me vulnerably.

"I promise." I stand and walk towards him. I took his face in my hands and said honestly.

I asked him the thing that has been running on my mind from the last few days.

And this kiss confirmed one thing. That I think I had feelings for him.

"What exactly I am to you?" I asked placing my head against his chest.

But before he say anything, someone else beat him to it.

"Hope I am not interrupting something." Harry whistles with a teasing smile.

"Yes you are." I grumbled pulling away and glaring at him.

"I will be waiting for your answer." I said determined looking at Ryan and left with Harry.
