..and the love story begins

RV likes me! I am so lucky...Every time I like a guy, he falls for me. But RV falling for me was like a distant dream. RV is very special. I like him very much . Today he confessed his feelings for me.

The day started like any other day. I did not attend classes, as usual. I was sitting in the canteen with other Anantians, wasting time. RV came after his classes were over. It's Saturday so there was no session today. RV, Raghav and I were sitting in the college ground. I was flirting with both RV and Raghav. With RV, because I like flirting with him and with Raghav, because I wanted to make RV jealous. Raghav is another Anantian and studying Mathematical Science. Raghav was also flirting with me. He held my hand and said that he likes me. As for RV...no reaction! At one point I was actually frustrated to see all my attempts failing. 

Feeling defeated, to RV I said, "I want to eat ice cream. Are you getting me one?" To my surprise his reply was, "Ya sure, but you'll have to come along." We bid Raghav good bye and started walking towards the ice cream parlor. We usually hold hands now so, like always I squeezed my hand into his hand. This time, quite unexpectedly, RV pulled back his hand. He said, "Please, I don't wanna get addicted to you. Don't play with my emotions. For you I am like every other guy you flirt with. But it is not the same for me." I was dumbfounded. I was completely blank for a few seconds. After I realized what he had just said I felt like I was floating on cloud nine. But I didn't know how to react or what to say. Finally I forced words out of my mouth, "N....no...nooo..you are not like the other guys to me. I mean....I....I like you. I just have a little fun with other guys. But I didn't know that you like me too. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I was afraid. You are same with all the guys. I was trying to suppress my feelings because I thought they were of no use." he was blushing when he said this. I took his hand into mine and said, "Trust me...I like you and you need not fear anything." He looked into my eyes. There was something more than just friendship for me in his eyes. I assured him that I wasn't going anywhere. And every word that I said is true. I'll never go anywhere. I'll be with him. Things are falling into place. Everything is fine now. As for my past..I have left it behind and it will never be a part of my present.
