High On Life

41: Little Moments

"Oye oye !! Kahaan ?!" I tried arguing but he was too fast. In a swift move, he pushed me into the elevator, dragging himself along, as he punched the number 2 with his elbow.

I breathed heavily as he grabbed my waist and leaned into my face, sending shivers down my spine.

"Oopar. Aur kahaan?" He smirked, whispering onto my face and I looked down at us, my heart going berserk inside my ribcage.

"Kiyun?" I managed to let out, panting for breath as the atmosphere around us grew warmer.

"Bas yun hi." He says looking constantly at my face.

Before I could answer, we reached the second floor and he scooped me up in his arms, carrying me out.

"Shehry !" I frowned , though exploding from the inside.

"Bol basanti." He smirked, carrying me to the balcony and I felt myself blush.

"Beta Sara ka hua hai, aur khushiyaan hum mana rahay hain?" I asked, giggling.

He tilts his head a little to the side and bit his lip and I instantly realized what I had just uttered.

He opened his mouth to say something but I cover it up with my hand quickly.

"You know what? Don't say it." I said with my eyes widened as if warning him, and he chuckled under my hand, putting me down.

I stood straight and fixed my dress, murmering. "Aik tum bhi na.."

His action makes me halt in my sentence as he wrapped his arms around my waist, lifting me up a little as he placed me on the railing of my balcony.

"Shehry !" I gasped, surrounded by fear instantly.

"You think I'm gonna drop you?" He raised an eyebrow and I looked to my side.

"Koi pata nahi tumhaara. Kuch bhi kar saktay ho." I bit my inner cheek to stop myself from laughing.

"Kuch bhi kar sakta hun, huh? Waah ! Bari umeed hai aapko humse? Okay, come on then, let's test my capabilities." He smirked and my eyes widened as he lifted me up in his arms again and took me to my room.

"Oh my God Shehry ! Stop !" I struggled in his grip as he shut the door of my room with his leg, entering.

He sighs putting me down. "I was just kidding man ! Chillax." He slid down the door and just sat against it, lost in his thoughts.

I followed suit and sat beside him. "What are you thinking?" I asked.

"Nothing much really." He smiled at me, though I could feel he's hiding something. Something which makes him....sad somehow, though I'm not so sure.

"Nida....these past few days, I felt like you needed to tell me something. What is it?" He asks suddenly.

Should I tell him? Will it mess up things in between us?

"Yes, you have to tell me. It won't mess up anything in between us." He smiled, putting his hands on mine as they rested on my knees.

Did he just read my mind?

"Yep. I just read your mind. Now go ahead. Tell me what's bothering you." He says. Okay wow.

I chuckled slightly but then my expression just changed as I remembered and it all flashed through my mind.

"Shehry....Harry..." I trailed off the second I felt his grip go tighter on my hand.

He nods reassuringly, gesturing for me to say more.
