7. BIRTHDAY

She woke up scratching her leg. Rubbing her eyes she yawned.

"Hmm its comfy here. I don't wanna leave my bed," murmuring she snuggled more in the blankets and sighed. But soon her sleep fade away when she remembered its her birthday. Looking at the alarm clock she started fumbling in her blankets standing on her knees trying to get away from it.

"Angelina Elara bring your ass down here in five minutes!" Aria yelled from downstairs making her stumble and fall on the ground.

"Ahh my butt," rubbing her butt she groaned and got up again to take a bath.

Having a water-rushing-bath she finally came out in only her towel. Taking out her long yellow sundressn she slipped into it, and blow-dried her hair leaving them half wet she made a half bun. Looking in the mirror she smiled and applied lip gloss. Lastly before going out she slipped in her sneakers and picked up her bag dashing out of her room just to stumble on stairs but soon composed herself and went to have her breakfast.

"Morning Good"

"Gorning mood"

"Good morning," she said the last time after fumbling with words and digged in her breakfast.

"You sure you are doing it?" Aria asked her for the last time making Aiden grip her hand.

"Hmm," she hummed nodding her head.

"Okay, I gotta go. Bye!" She stood and kissed Eric on his head and dashed out before Aria can take her again in her questionery session.

"We all know how protective you are about her. But she is not a toddler anymore. She knows what to do." Aiden tried to put some senses in her mind.

"But he is a bad news," she murmured playing with her bracelet.

"No he is not lets leave it for now, please" he softly murmured taking her hand in his making her small circles with his thumb on her hand.

Angelina walked towards her class gripping the straps of her bag tightly. Sadness filling up to her throat as she got the news that her friends had not came back from their vacation. Suddenly her gaze went to a shining black car entering. She stood there gazing at it. She didn't know what attracted her towards it but a wide smile spread on her face when she saw him coming out the car.

'Xavier here I come to save your life' she mentally yelled and made a run towards him.

"Hello," she sang running towards him waving her hand at him.

He turned around to see who is creating disturbance so early in the morning. To say he was shocked seeing her coming towards him like a bull running.. He started running in full speed in other direction to get away from her.

"Oi, why are you running away?" She yelled behind him.

"Because you are running behind me!" He yelled back looking at her turning his head to see her standing there stretching her arm like to stop someone.

Confusion covered his face when he saw that she has stopped before he can yell again to ask her why she stopped, he collided with a pillar and landed on the ground with a loud thud.

Blue Sky was covered with fluffy white clouds, he took his time to appreciate nature but he winced as soon as the sharp pain occured in his forehead.

"Xavier, are you okay?" Concerned voice filled hit his ears. An unknown emotion took place in his heart seeing someone else caring for him, concerning over him.

"Do you need someone to move you up?" She asked placing her one hand on his arm and one his shoulder.

Everything faded away like air only her face was visible to him but he didn't like the concern on her face. He stretched his arm to touch her face but the black dots covered his vision amd he fainted with her concerned face as last image in his mind.

"Hi!" She whispered seeing him sitting on the patient's bed. Nurse went out to fill up the bottles kept there.

"Hi," he whispered back a small word and looked out of the window.

"Are you okay now?" She asked carefully like her voice will hurt him.

"Hm," he hummed trying to her hint that she is not welcomed. But Angelina was being Angelina, ignoring him she sat down on the stool kept beside the bed.

"So you are not well, and I am alone too. I mean my friends they are not here, so what about we hang out together today." She blabbered and he give him bore look.

"We will enjoy com'on. I am not that bad." She joked and smiled brightly.

"Too sorry to burst your bubble, Angelina, but I am not your personal clown to entertain you." He tried to sound polite, but failed miserably and sounded rude.

The way her name rolled on his tongue gave her goosebumps making her rub her arms.

"Its a fifty-fifty situation." She exclaimed ignoring the bubbles in her stomach.

He ignored her and went to attend his classes. She followed behind him shortly. Trying to match his long strides.
