Sierra-
I was ready for our tour fully.. Andrew and I were the most excited persons there.
We went with our classmates to the airport to fetch our scheduled flight.
I was sitting next to Alexa, my classmate but somehow Andrew managed to shift Alexa to the other place and sat with me.
He was behaving like a kid who had never been in the airplane. He was enjoying the scenery that was present outside the window. He was enjoying every little thing.
He made me to enjoy but I wasn't able to enjoy much as in my mind it were the thoughts of Elac that were going on.
I yet tried to act normal. I didn't know why?. but I shouted on Andrew. I said, 'I'm not forcing you to enjoy anything just leave me alone for sometime.'
Andrew didn't get irritated. He rather holded my hand and said, 'Sierra! I know you are going to France to meet Elac. I will help you to find him for sure. But for what will happen in future, don't ruin your present moments. '
I said, 'Andy! You don't know how the love at first sight feels. You don't know about how two lovers feel when they get separated from each other. You cannot imagine the pain that a lover has of not being able to touch his better half not being able to feel their aura. '
He said, 'Sierra! I am facing more than this. I'm not able to be with my dream girl in a relationship when she's just sitting next to me. Try to understand my pain too.. But after this also I'm happy na! Why don't you try to be elated. Look Sierra we are humans we get disturbed by our emotions but God has given us our brilliant mind so that we could escape and win the emotional battles. And the first step towards winning is to be in present.'
I was just speechless. I smiled and said, 'Andy! sometimes you become too serious.'
Then I tried to copy Andrew in his actions. We both made fun of each other and enjoyed our journey.
After sometime Andrew fell asleep. His head tilted and came to lie on my shoulder.
He was looking so cute just like a little kid.
I didn't move my shoulder for the next 1 hour. After this I saw his eye movements.. He was frightened while dreaming. I made his head to lie in my lap and gently stroked his hairs. He grew calm and fell into a deep sleep. He was my best friend as well as my little child.
I wasn't able to sleep.. I was lost in my dreams of how would Elac be looking now?. How would he react when he'll see me after years?.
We reached Paris airport. I woke up Andrew and as expected he became super happy after looking at the airport.
We went with our group and checked in our hotel.
I tried to take a room with girls of our group but somehow Andrew managed to settle them up with other girls. I was well aware of his acts but I didn't resist as I felt safe with him.
Andrew wanted to stay in the hotel with me.
At last, there was me and Andrew left and hence we had to share the room.
I hesitated a little bit as it was my first time when I was sharing a room with a boy but I was sure from Andrew's side that he'll never do anything with me without my permission.
So I left my hesitation and just laid on the bed occupying it fully. We again started to make fun of each other. We watched our favorite TV show together and night grew dark. It was the time to sleep now.
I made a pillow demarcation over the mid of the bed and said to Andrew that I have a problem of beating the person sleeping next to me with my legs. 😅
It was just my try to keep him some distance away from me. I didn't want him to get hurt so I gave him this reason.
We slept.
When I woke up in night to drink water, I saw Andrew was looking at me smiling and blushing.
I asked him, 'Andy why haven't you slept yet?. '
He started asking me questions about where will we tomorrow go for sight seeing in Paris?. what should I wear tomorrow?. and all sorts of questions. He was very excited for the next day.
I just made him calm and asked him to sleep. I turned off the lights then and made him to sleep.
I was too excited as he was, only difference was in our reasons...I was eagerly waiting for the Sun to rise so that I could find Elac there and meet him as soon as possible.
