I strangely felt subdued as I reached home. It's because I wanted to listen to his vivid voice, I wanted to see ethereal face. He's probably the most beautiful man ever to exist. Everything about him invites me in.                                        🌜
❄.                                     ⭐.                                                          ☀

As I reached home I searched for my mum. I was disgusted to see her sleeping with another man in our house. I rushed to my room immediately not standing there for a second. Tears were dripping over my cheeks. I never felt the warmth in my home. I didn't got the love and affection which I legally deserved. Everyone in school hated me because I was raised by a messed up family. Nobody cared for me when I was in trouble.     🌓.                       ⭐.                             🌙
                  ❄.                                         🌚.                                    ☀
But today was different. Today for the first time someone cared for me, someone was gentle to me. I couldn't help but think of him. I began to chuckle as I thought of him. I wanted to be friends with him. All the pretty thoughts about him drifted on my mind singing a lullaby and made me fall asleep.

              Shit I'm late already. Today's the last date for the assignment submission. I braced myself up and rushed for the class.

         "Hey Selene! Long time no see" , Matt waved to me from a distant.
   
"Hi Matt." I waved back, Sarah did the same.
"Dude isn't it your responsibility to contact us first since you're 3 year senior to us and a big man now!" , Said Sarah in teasing tone.( Matt, Sarah and I were best friends since childhood , Matt's a year senior to us but his incredible telent promoted him further.)

"Sorry Ladies. My bad! Let me make it up by treating you two to dinner as an apology of a gentleman",  Matt said.

"I'm in it"  said Sarah.
"Why should I reject a free meal?" I smiled and said.

"Okay then I'm gonna pick you two up at 8:00 , don't be late for god's sake." Matt said.
"We definitely won't, you looser" , said Sarah in a confidential gesture.

As three of us were chatting and heading out of the campus , I saw Eric coming out from his vivid black luxurious Bugatti Chiron with a lady in a sangria halter attire . Both of them were looking so ethereal that all the eyes around were locked to them. A part of me felt bad to see him with a lady, a part of me felt covetous. Every single girl in the campus was murmuring about him and the lady.

If I stay here for one more second, he'ld see the embarrassing sight of me crying like a fool. So I need to get out of here.I accidently collided with him while rushing. I felt down. This is probably the most embarrassing situation that I've ever experienced. He must be bursting into laughter inside, the lady beside him as well. As Matt approached towards me to help me out,there was a hand extended before me , the same pale hand.
I glared the person who's hand approached before Matt.

It's him again.

"Silly girl. Do you not love your life that you are so reluctant to take care of yourself?"  Erics voice was even more gentle.

"I..ummm, actually...." I was stuttering.
"C'mon.Seems like you fractured your feet! You need to go to the hospital first"
"It's alright. I'm okay".
"You're not!" He pulled me close and carried me gently in his broad arms. It was the first time I felt the warmth that I longed for. I found the warmth in the coldness.I was blushing. I didn't expect him to be this polite to me. I could clear listen all the mouths around murmuring about us.

"I'm sorry Eric. You shouldn't waste your precious time by taking me to the hospital!"

He smirked while his eyes focus on the route. An awkward silence was prevailing. Yet I was happy.

"You shouldn't be this reckless" his vivid voice raised.
"I won't."
"Stop staring at me or else I'll eat you up."
"Hahaha. You're good at jokes"

Suddenly he accelerated the speed 3x than before. I could anticipate that he wasn't joking. He's furious.

"I never joke" his cold voice was raised.
He was so mad that his killer eyes was visible once again . He could actually kill me now.
"I'm sorry" I apologized , my hand slanting against his.
He immediately stopped the car.
He glared at me frowning.

"Don't try to be friends with me. I have the hands of a killer. Don't put you life on stake. " He said ferociously.

"You shouldn't spend your time alone. You should make friends more often!"
"I don't need it"
"You definitely do!" I yelled.
" Don't get entangled in my life or else it'll be too late for you to regret."
"Whatif i say I'm willing to regret".

He smirked and started the car again.
