Attraction To Affection

Chapter 18: Sleepover

"Have all the fun but don't hurt her because before she can kill you, I'll kill you myself." I said sternly to him.

"I know, mother and I won't dare to harm your daughter." He chuckled.

"You better not."

"Why are you doing this? What's so special about these products?" Aryan asked Any who was applying the cream to his face.

"It has salicylic acid which helps to close your skinpores and makes your skin acne free in just few weeks." Any explained.

"Lekin mere toh koi Acne hi nhi hai toh phir?" Anirudh asked.

"Acne batake nhi aate na ki Anirudh bhaiya main aa raha hoon." I said to him. Everyone laughed and he pouted.

After we were done with the serum application, we put the face masks on them and they looked like cartoons. Rai was busy in cooking the latest Italian cuisine she learned and she insisted to make it for us. We wanted her to rest but she just loves cooking.

Any took their pictures and I uploaded them on my Instagram story with a caption 'soon-to-be pageant queens'. Aryan saw that and quickly pulled me by my side to his.

"Why are you planning to make us look fools infront of the whole college?" He asked looking straight into my eyes. I got nervous but still I replied "because I want to." I replied to him looking straight into his eyes.

"You do know how to get your way by using these eyes, don't you?"

"Do they work?" I asked playfully.

"Unfortunately, yes." he said it but it did something to my heart. I chuckled at his condition. His skin was glowing after removing the face mask. His eyes shined under the moonlight reaching to us through the big wall windows. I looked at them for a little while before I chose to scoot away before anyone misinterprets us again.

"Dinner's ready." Rai shouted from the open kitchen they have in their apartment, I love this aspect of their apartment.

We all went and sat there. It was really delicious, let me tell you from pizza to pasta to lasagna. Our tummies were filled with outstanding food but I still wanted to eat some dessert.

"Guys, what about dessert?" I looked at them and they all narrowed their eyes at me.

"What?" I asked with confusion.

"You really think we have space in our stomachs after eating all that tasty food?" All of them except Anirudh and Aryan said.

"Well, I have and I want to eat icecream. That's it." I said folding my hands.

"You go alone then and come back after eating YOUR icecream." V and Rai said.

"Haww! You guys are so bad." I exclaimed and pouted.

"Anirudh, will you come with me, pleasee??" I requested him but guess what? He already dozed off that's why he didn't respond earlier. I see.

There's no option and I am not going alone that too in Delhi, I know the cases.

"Its okay then." I sadly pouted.

"Lets go." Aryan said and a smile curved on my lips.

"Are you for real, Aryan? This was the first time her wish was not going to be fulfilled and you can't do that too." Any said. I rolled my tongue out at her.

"Lets goooo!" I said jumping with excitement and grabbed his hand.
He chuckled at my behaviour.

"Pata nhi inn dono ko kab samajh mein aayega." I can hear them saying that to each other when we left the apartment.

"Tumne kuch suna?" I asked him while descending the stairs. (You heard something?)

"Nhi toh, kyu?" He asked me with confusion. (No, why?)

"I don't know, I must have imagined." I shrugged.

"Why don't you imagine me then?" He smirked at me.

"Become Jungkook and I may think about it." I smirked back and ran down the stairs quickly.

"You love Jungkook so much, don't you?" He soon joined me on the street and asked.

"You know him?" I asked. He's surely popular but he just debuted as a soloist and he's probably more popular as BTS.

"If you don't remember, our band performed his song." Oh yes, when I stole the show, hehe.

"Oh yeah. By the way, you guys were so good. I could hear you playing and you all were so awesome at what you guys were doing." I genuinely complimented them.

"Thankyou thankyou." He replied.

"You know, I love boys who are drummers." I know he's a drummer. I internally smirked.

"Hmm, hmm, yes?" He smirked back.

"Jungkook is a drummer too, he's amazing at that. That's another reason that I love him more than anybody."

"Why do you love him so much?"

"You know, you're the first person who asked why I love them instead of saying 'eww, who likes BTS'." I hate it when people downgrade your choices.
"There's no particular reason and then there are multiple reasons. Its like you just feel at home. There was a time when I felt lonely even with people around me, they helped me to cope up with that. It might sound too much but it's the truth."
I remembered every moment I spent watching their stuff.

"That's good then. There are very less people who makes you feel complete in the loneliest of times."

"I know right." I smiled thinking that he isn't like others, he won't judge me for my choices ever.

"Who's your favourite singer by the way?" I asked curiously. Its always been me who we talk about. I know nothing about him.

"Charlie Puth and 1975."

"Oh, I love Charlie Puth too, he's been my consistent favourite from last four years." I exclaimed remembering the times when me and V used to always consider Charlie Puth a genius musician.

"I know, he is mine too. See? Here we are. Take whatever icecream you want." He asked pointing at the stall.

I excitedly went there jumping on the road. I took my favourite icecream and Aryan passed the money to icecream uncle.

"You don't want one?" I asked him.

"Nah, I am full."

"Then why did you come?"

"Because you wanted to." That definitely didn't stop butterflies from flying in my stomach. Its always the small things that matter.

I side hugged him and grinned at him.
"Thankyou, you are the bestttt." He chuckled.

"You don't hate me now?" He asked teasingly.

"I never did, I never would. It just came out of my mouth by mistake. I didn't mean it." I said seriously suddenly making me feel guilty.

"I know, I was just teasing you." He pinched my nose.

"I am sorry for bringing that up." He said when I didn't say anything to him in 5 minutes.

"No no, its fine. I was just wondering how it would be so much fun to dance in the middle of the street." His face fell and I laughed at his reaction.

"I'll do that someday and you'll make my video, I'll post it on my story." I said imagining everything.

"Okay madam, anything else?"

"Nah, shall we go my chauffeur?" I said acting like a queen.

"Yes, my queen." He chuckled and we went back. Everybody was watching a movie. Rai and V were already sleeping. V layed her head on Vihaan's shoulder and he had no problem with that.

Anirudh and Any were laying on the floor like they passed out. We went and joined them too.

The next day, we all woke up with strained necks and shoulders.

Laziness brought no good to humans.
