THE LOVE STORY PART 3 ;

Mr Rishaan's POV :

Have you ever felt that the person before you is the most beautiful of all people you have ever met and when you tell people about it . They make strange faces saying that you are crazy man . You might not believe but that is what I am going through . For me that weirdo girl has become the most beautiful person of all the people I know . No matter how untidy or dirty she is . Even though she still pisses me off .

Today we are going on a college tour and I am waiting for Lily near the bus via which we will travel . I want to sit with her because I am comfortable with her but as always she is late and bus is going to leave within 20 minutes . Come on Lily ...Where are you ? I should call her ...

" I am here ... " , Lily panting .

" You are right on time ..." , I said sarcastically .

" Thank you .." , She says and enters the bus . Before moving forward her eyes fall on Xavier .Who is Xavier ? Well, he is her fiance . Lily told me that at first she liked him and wanted to get married but then when they got engaged he started ignoring her . He is also dating ...Guess who ? Yeah , you guessed it ...Its Alisha . I hate both Alisha and Xavier but Lily doesn't . Because she doesn't like Xavier anymore but I doubt that sometimes because whenever she sees him her lazy and dead eyes are filled with sadness. For some reason her eyes look more attractive when they are alive . Weird right ...

" Liy , move forward . We will sit over there ..." , I told her while pointing towards a seat .

" Oh , yeah ..." , she said after snapping out of her trance .

" So , what happened ? You look more sad than usual ..." , I asked her .

" Nothing much . My father told me that I am getting married within a week ..." , she said with a sigh .

" What ?! You should tell him that you don't want to get married ..." , I said .

" I tried to ...But he told me that he will only stop our marriage if someone else agrees to marry me ..." , she said .

" What is wrong with him ? " , I told her .

" I don't know he is behaving strangely these days . He wants me to get married no matter what ..." , she said .

" You should tell him that Xavier is dating another girl ..." , I said .

" He doesn't believe me . No matter what I say ..." she said helplessly .

So her father only wants her to get married . That is okay . I can do that . I can marry her .

" Then I will marry you ..." , I said abruptly .

" Wait ....W..W..What ? What are you saying ? ", she asked while blushing .

What the hell ! What is wrong with me ? Why did I ..? Wait , why do I want to marry her ? Do I love her ?

After hours of awkward silence . I spoke ...

" Well , we have arrived at our destination ..." , I said awkwardly but she didn't say anything just looked at me and then quickly ran out of the bus .

Damn , I must have scared her . I am totally crazy . Why did I ask her to marry me ? I am out of my mind . But she looks cute when she bushes . I want to ...No , no ...What is wrong with me ? Alex , stop it .

We are in the middle of forest hiking towards our destination when I finally find Lily . She literally disappeared after running out of the bus . I must have scared her . Foolish Rishaan ...

Lily is opening her bag , trying to find something . Let me tell you something about Lily and her bag .Her bag is always a mess . Its filled with packets of lazy , biscuit and other wrappers . There are even torn pieces of paper there . That is why I clean her bag by myself . I mean I hate her carelessness .But for some reason I am attracted towards her . I want be with her . I want to take care of her . I want to clean her and love her . Damn , I am doomed .

" What are you trying to find ? " , I ask Lily who is finding something in her bag for at least twenty minutes .

" I was trying to find my phone ..." , she said.

" Let me help you ..." , I told her and took her bag away from her .

And I again cleaned her bag and gave her mobile phone. Currently , we are sitting on the large stone . She is looking at the sky and I am looking at her . She is beautiful . How can someone be so pretty ? Damn , she noticed that I was staring at her .

" Mmmm, Rishaan ...Do you love me ? " , she asked .

" Yeah ..." , I said bluntly.

She looks at me with surprise .

" Why ? Don't you that you love cleanliness ? And I am so messy and careless . Why do you like me ...? " ,she asks .

" Perhaps I like you because we have same glasses and we wear same type of clothes ..." I tease her .

And she seriously looks at her clothes then mine . She is so cute .

Though what I said is not a complete lie . Both of us are wearing a sweater , shirt and pant. Though my clothes look neat while hers are messy .

" Really ...? ", she asks .

And I burst into laughter. She seriously believed me . I can't believe that she is the topper of our college . But somewhere in my heart I feel happy and fulfilled which I have never ever felt in my life ...

Lily and I were hungry so we decided to eat lunch while sitting near the tree . This place is beautiful . It has trees , mountains ,huts and huge stones on which you can sit down .

The place where we decided to sit had green grass. It was somewhat wet . Today sky was so bright and blue . And there was slight breeze passing through our faces .

I had made lunch by myself in the kitchen of our hostel and Lily had done the some . She had made chicken balls and I meat meat balls . We had also bought some rice to eat with it . Along with vegetable soup .But when I tasted what she had made I went to seventh heaven .She is a great cook .

" Its delicious ..." , I told her .

" Thanks .." , she replied while blushing .

I noticed that she stains on her clothes and her face was also dirty because of soup that she drank .So I took napkin out of my pocket and wiped her mouth with it .

" What are you...? " , she asked while backing away .

" What do you think ? I am wiping your mouth ..." , I said .

After lunch we decided to climb on a mountain with her . And finally we reached the peak of the mountain . From here everything looks small even small trees which looked big when we were down there .

" So , what do you think ? " , I ask her .

" Its beautiful ..." , she said .

" No what do you think about marrying me ? " , I asked .

" What ? No ... I mean we don't even know each other and ..." , she told .

" Do you like me ? " , I asked .

" I...I ...Yes I do but not as much as you ..." , she said .

" Its fine by me . Look we can just get married then we have whole life to know about each other ... You don't need to reply me now . Just tell me when you are ready .We can continue to study.I will find a job to support us . And if you want you can also find a job with me ..." I explained .

" Okay ... I will think about it ..." , she said .

" Great ..." , I said .
