It Started With a Bet

Chapter 3

Siddharth's POV

Parth was right,  if she was not bothered, why should I be?? I decided to forget everything and enjoy the trip with my friends.

We all enjoyed that day and then all of us had planned a bonfire at night. The nights were quite cold as it was just the last week of February.

We all were sitting there the light romantic music was on.  We all played many games and few couples were dancing, engrossed in each other.

Just then a junior doctor, Dr Isha came to me and asked if I would like to dance with her.

I looked at Shruti as I wanted to dance with her... But she was engrossed in talking to that male friend of hers. I got so annoyed that I nodded and we started dancing.  

Isha was dancing too close to me.  I looked at Shruti from the corner of my eyes and saw that she was looking at us.

I knew that look, she was getting irritated to see me dancing with another girl. But so was I. Why couldn't she talk to me and let me tell exactly what had happened?

She was not ready to talk to me, so blocked my number and me from her life and all her social media handles.

How can she do that?? I was still thinking about all that while dancing when all of a sudden, Isha missed a step and was falling when I caught her.

She thanked me with a smile and hug.  I gave a polite smile and removed her arms from my body. But she managed to peck my cheek.

Oh God!!! What was wrong with this girl??

I got away from her as soon as possible and saw Shruti leaving the party and going away.

Oh god!!! There were already so many misunderstandings... I didn't want another one.

I followed her and caught her hand and pulled her away to somewhere we could talk.

She was annoyed as hell and pushed me really very hard. Though I managed to wrap my arms around her waist, I lost my balance and I fell on the grass with her on top of me as I was holding her tightly.

Her lips brushed against my neck.  I loved it and she was so shocked that she tried to get away but I could not let her go.

She was looking so pretty in her pink-coloured sundress, that I lost my mind and all I could remember was that I wanted to kiss her very plump lips.  Her almond-shaped eyes and plump lips had been haunting me for so long. 

I knew it was not right but I flipped our position and now she was lying on the ground while I was on top of her preventing her from getting up and going away.

I was bending my head down towards her to kiss those soft kissable lips when she slapped me hard.

" What are you doing??  I am not one of those silly brainless girls who roam around you.  Just don't even think to try another dirty trick of yours on me. Let me go.... "

"Not before I clear the misunderstanding... I never played any dirty trick on you."

" Oh please... sorry to burst your bubble, but I am not that naive and gullible. I did trust you once but thank God, I came back that day. I saw everything with my own eyes, Siddharth. I would never fall for your charm. Let me go or I will scream and shout.  "

I was shocked and came back to my senses. I got up immediately and extended my hand to help her in getting up but she ignored it.

" Do whatever you want,  but please listen to me... It was not how it looked... "
