"Will you just stop being a nervous wreck!?". He glared at me. "Well... I'm trying..." comes out as a small squeak from me.
What will you do when your said partner is trying really not that hard to play hide and seek with your lecturers especially if you care about your impression on them.
This guy was doing just that and I... Well let's just say that it does not sit well with me. I mean even if I am not a high scorer I try to never give an impression of a lazy, 'always with boys' kinda girl because it's just that I don't like it when they speak shit about you behind your back and when I get to know that then I blast irrespective of who the person is in front of me. So much as to not care even if it's a lecturer.
"Why are we even here?"
"Because I want to have coffee..?" Why am i still with him? What is even wrong with me?
I just huff and sit there crossing my hands over.
It is already a chaotic duo - one does what he wants and other dances on his beats no matter what even after knowing the consequences.
I mean I don't know if its only in this university or not but it gives out typical Indian school vibes where all the teachers are particular about attendance, classes, assignments, projects, submission, practical and whatnot.
And in a university like this, here I am with this shithead in cafeteria huffing like a putty girl and thinking for god knows why.
"...change that, then it will give us some points..?"
Chattak!!!
And my head almost hits to the table. The pain I feel now... just what happened? I rub my head and confused, look at Avinash only to see him glaring at me. "What-", "If you are here to day dream then get lost, I will ask for another partner or do a solo presentation." His voice stern, firm and dangerously low. I shiver and try to avoid his eyes.
This is going to be so tough to handle.
I ask him about the change that he asked me to do. The point that told was good though.
After 15 minutes
The bell rings telling us that the current period is over. I take a look at him and see that he us smirking at me, "What? Now can we go to class?". "As you wish my lady".
What is it with this guy? I should be ghankfil that he finally agreed on going back to class at all. We both pack our things and spiral our way through steps and reach our class at 4th floor.
I open the door to the class and, "where were you both during the previous class? Why are you coming only now?"
Just done now.
I turn my head towards the voice, "maam, we were actually in library. We were engrossed into the presentation that we didn't see the time."
"Avinash you are her partner for this?"
"Yes maam."
This lady believes him so much and not me?
"Go sit in your places".
I take my sit behind Sneha and he sits at front row.
But really, is maam that confident about him that she had to ask?
After 1 hour-
I realise that someone is shaking me vigorously. Rubbing my eyes I see that Sneha is the one shaking my earth and glaring at me while shouting at me to get up and go to lunch.
I stand and some how lost my balance on a non existent log when I take my first step to door.
No no no I'm about to fall and smash my head to floor but I feel two hands on me, one hand woven around my waist and other on my elbow in a tight grasp almost stopping my blood flow.
"Watch it idiot".
And of course it has to be shitface to catch me from falling.
I stand straight and the grasp on my elbow has still not slackened. I turn my head towards him and my lungs forget to aid breathing.
He have freckles which are not noticeable otherwise and dark chocolate brown eyes with gold speckles.
He is staring-no searching something in me, his eyes roam on my face and sudden changes into an angry one.
I feel a slight push and then he goes out of the class gritting his teeth. I just stand there shell-shocked as to what it was.
"Emm...not to break your bubble... but... what was THAT..?"
I turn my head back to see a very confused, shocked looking Sneha, "even I don't know..?" It came out more of a question than a statement.
"Whatever it was...I'm hungry let's move. Eat and Talk baby, eat and talk"
Sneha goes out of the class leaving me in the class. But I'm stuck on what that moment was, and why the hell his expression changed so fast. Did I do something that he was that angry?
"Bitch! You coming?"
This girl seriously does not have a censor I swear.
I run out of the class and meet a very annoyed-looking Sneha on the way to cafeteria.
Pulling her hand I make my way to the buzzing cafeteria.
I ask Sneha to go take a seat and I go to order food. Minutes later I take 2 plates of veg Pulao with soybean curry and make my way towards her.
"Spill the beans girl, what was that? Whatever it was..."
"Seriously..? I don't know..."
"Okay let me frame it properly. What did you do, why was he that angry?"
I just sit there thinking of all that i did when I was with him.
Null.
I didn't do anything other than tagging along with him for an hour there was nothing that i remembered.
