✓Love me till eternity (Completed)

Love me till eternity - Book VII (Part 5)

I was not really shocked or excited when Ben proposed me. Though it's fact that I had a secret crush on him but I was aware that I would get hurt in the end because he wasn't expecting my love but only attracted to my physical appearance.

The whole year, since I joined this college, I wasn't existed in his world and suddenly he started taking interest in talking with me. He insisted me and Alice to join their friends group. Alice and I agreed because it would be rude if we showed attitude.

Initially I was in control not to show much excitement whenever Ben is around me and Alice, talking about general things like studies, our assignments, notes. But after joining his group I was often surrounded by him and his friends. Without my knowledge, my feelings were becoming more and more intense, deep and distinct.

I was very distracted by his tantalizing smile which could easily melt my heart. I could feel jolting inside my body whenever he gives me friendly hug or kiss on cheek. I was feeling scared about my feelings. I was fighting hard not to fall in love with him because I knew, Ben wouldn't think twice to crush my heart once he gets his hands on me.

So with strong determination, I said No when he proposed me. He tried his best to convince me, to change my mind but I could not let it happen. Without love it's useless to have such relationship.

I couldn't really touch his heart and he proved it correct by requesting me to kiss him once. So that's all he wants from me! He doesn't really care that I rejected him. I was really hurt that time but instead of showing my weakness I kissed him on his lips as he wished.

"All this while you were in love with Gemma and you couldn't realize it until she kissed you." Linda said sipping on her coffee.

"Linda is saying right bro. I never saw you this much disturb and restless even after your first break up. Last night I deliberately asked Kate to pleasure you, I thought after four months you will forget about Gemma and enjoy yourself but it seems like you don't want to forget her." Austin said.

"Yes, It's impossible to take her out of my mind. I never realized her love when I was so close with her. I thought it's just fascination and I shouldn't think much about it. She was in love with me, when she kissed me, she poured her love into that kiss. I was moron not to understand my own feelings, her feelings." I said feeling upset.

After that day Gemma stopped attending college. I tried my best not to feel sick, lonely, unhappy and vulnerable but I failed. I was so deeply into her.

..........................

"Gemma" someone called my name tapping my shoulder lightly. I spun around and saw him.

I felt suddenly cold and short of breath when I saw him standing tall in front of me. To avoid him I literally stopped attending college, I stayed home and did my studies though it was very difficult to escape from thinking about Ben and his memories, I did my best to forget him. 

After a minute silence, I got courage to say him.

"Congratulations Ben, you are first in college." I congratulated him. I came to college to check results and collect marksheet. I never thought that I will meet him today.

"Congratulations to you too. you came second highest and first in economics." He said showing his bright smile.

"I wanted to tell you something important." Ben said.

"And what is that? " I asked casually. I pretend to be calm but my heart was racing rapidly. My stupid heart!

"I know you will not believe my words because you think that I am player which was true but what you don't know is you stole my heart. You stopped attending college and I realized how much I missed you. I was falling for you but I realized it late." Ben said and my eyes widened with surprise.

"Why didn't you try to contact me then?" I asked incredulously.

"I was dying to confess you my love when I come to know that my heart needs only you but then exams were coming in two months and I don't want to distract you from studies. So I decided I better let you know today." He explained.

"After my very first break up I lost trust in love but after meeting you I came to know that nothing is beautiful than love in this world. You have lighten my dull world." He gently took my hand in his and pressed it near his chest. I could feel the rhythm of his heartbeats, it was pounding fast, just like mine.

"My heart is crazy for you and so I am! I love you Gemma. I don't want bf gf relationship with you. I want you for all my life. I promise that I will love you till eternity." Ben said earnestly, boring his eyes in mine. I was so much happy to hear him saying those magical words. 

"But Ben,

.................

I am lesbian." I said in serious tone.

"What?" His face horrified. 

I laughed heartily enjoying his expressions. 

Ben narrowed his eyes before pulling me on him and sealing our lips into deep, passionate kiss.

The End.....
