Falling for you

Chapter 2

Next Morning the team found themselves on a flight to Mumbai.
Ishan was sat next to the window.
As everyone settled into their seats, Shubman found himself seated next to Ishan. The flight took off, and Ishan, tired from the day's activities, leaned against the window, closing his eyes.

As the plane soared through the clouds, Shubman couldn't help but steal glances at Ishan. The soft, ambient lighting accentuated Ishan's features, casting a warm glow on his face. Shubman's gaze lingered on the curve of Ishan's jaw, the flutter of his eyelashes, and the gentle rise and fall of his chest with each breath.

Ishan, unaware of Shubman's silent admiration, nestled into a comfortable position, eventually finding himself resting against Shubman's shoulder.

He looks like a baby.
Shubman thought to himself. Smiling at his bestfriend who was looking like a newborn kid .

"Ayy Shubman"
Shubman heard Kuldeep's voice .

"Shh... He's sleeping." Shubman said telling Kuldeep to be quiet.

"Arey Arey ...itna pyar in dono bestfriends ke beech....kisi din tu Ishan se shaadi hi kar lega" . Surya said .

Virat also joined in . "Tu Sara ko kam Ishan ko zyada date kar raha hai."

"Aur Sara bechari tum dono ko third wheel kar Rahi hai." Commented Jadeja.

Everyone bursted into laughter. Shubman couldn't help but also join in . The team always made jokes about this ever since he started dating Sara . It's not like he minded . He did not mind at all . Shubman knew these were just friendly jokes .

Soon they landed . Ishan waking up , let out a yawn and said "How long was I asleep for ?"

"Pretty much the whole damn flight." Shubman replied.

"You Know Shubman did not even let us speak for the rest of the flight just in case you wake up ." Kuldeep complained.

Ishan giggled . "Really Shubh ?"

"It's not like I had a choice."
.

After reaching the hotel , Ishan quickly got ready to meet Aditi.

Shubman came out of the bathroom after showering and saw Ishan all dressed up .

"Where are you going?" .
He asked .

"To meet Aditi. "

"Oh.."
Shubman sounded kind of disappointed.

After bidding Shubman a goodbye and informing Rohit , Ishan left .

He walked to the café they were supposed to be meeting in .
Ishan did not know why but...
He was feeling nervous. He felt sick.
Guilt was eating him up inside.

You don't like her anymore
.
.

Yet you are here
.
.

You don't love her
.
.

Still you are giving her fake hopes

"Ishan !" . He heard a voice. Ishan turned around to see Aditi.

"Aditi! Hey.."

"Ish why are you standing out here ? Come let's go inside."

She held Ishan's hand and guided him inside.

Guilty

That's all Ishan could feel.

They talked for hours . Ishan did certainly feel a bit better catching up with Aditi .

But He knew he had to tell Aditi before it's to late . He did not want to lose her as a friend. Most importantly He did not want to hurt her .

As they walked on the streets of Mumbai , Ishan stopped Aditi.

Aditi turned to face him . "What happened?"

"Aditi...I ...I am sorry"

Aditi frowned. "Ish what are you talking about ? What happened?"

"Aditi ..We..." Ishan took a deep breath trying to hold back his emotions.

"We need to break up."
