Third person's POV-
It was the very next morning. Bella was released , they said she was strong enough. So , Bella joined school on that day only , she didn't want to miss it.
But today , it was something different. She wasn't scared , she was shy. She couldn't stop thinking about last night. How Ethan came , kissed her forehead. She made herself understand , that 'He doesn't date' and even if he did , she wasn't a option to him. It was maybe a gesture kinda thing for him. But her heart wasn't ready to accept it. It wanted to know that Ethan had something for Bella too.
Bella took slow steps and reached inside her college. Cristan waved at her from distance and came towards her excitedly. He was coming from the food court. Bella looked behind him , trying to figure out incase her prince charming was with him too.
"How's your mom?"
"She's doing great now. Leave her , Tell me about yourself . How are you feeling? I was so scared you know. When Ethan and I took you to the hospital, my hands were shaking."
"Ethan helped you to take me?"
His smile fell hearing her question. She wanted to know that only?
He walked her into her classroom and explained how they were scared , how they lost it with Ava ,how he had to leave the hospital though he didn't want to as his mother fell sick. But all Bella could think about was Ethan.
Bella sat on her desk and saw Ethan was there. On the last desk. It looked weird as he usually don't take these classes. Bella tried giving attention to the class , but it was just not possible. Her mind was only thinking about Ethan. She was looking out from the window when she heard her name getting called ,
Isabella Clarke's POV-
"Ms Clark. Explain us what you felt after reading 'The notebook'."
Why the hell this litarature professor was asking me? I stood up and ask ,
"Me?"
"You're the only Clark here right?"
"Y-Ye-Yes."
"Then I asked you only."
I shut my eyes in hurry and try to remember how I felt after reading 'The notebook'. It was a romance genre. I took a breath and start saying whatever came from my mind,
"One would regret if they don't give it a shot in their life. It's so comprehensive like sparks has set a model of what should love be like, the neverending, the one which lasts till the last breath, the sincere one no matter what the circumstances grow to be like, the bond which gets even stronger as you step in your old life, the one for which everyone longs today."
"Yes , Mr Keane."
I opened my eyes in confusion and saw everyone looking passing me. I looked behind too and saw Ethan raising his hand. He wasn't even standing , what a jerk!
"That's a damn shitty book."
I heard people gasping.
"The male lead is like a fellow puppy. Who the fuck writes damn 356 letters and builds a house for a girl he barely knows."
I reply more like a whisper,
"He loved her."
I found him saying in a teasing voice,
"People find it love? Like a dumb boy saying he would kill himself if the girl says no to go on a date with him!"
I took a breath again and opened my eyes ,
"If one gets someone like Noah , their life would become a paradise itself. I wish everyone could experience such devoted love. I wish I had someone like that."
It sounded like I sighed.
"Someone please write some letters for her and be her dumb prince charming."
People started laughing badly. I wanted to say something in defence but the professor dismissed the class.
I felt bad , people can't find logic in love. I looked behind and saw Ethan leaving. Before I could realise I caught myself infront of him. He looked at me in.. confusion?
"Umm..mm..I wanted to say thanks."
"And for what?"
That deep voice shit. It made me forget all the lines I planned to say to him.
"The way you visited me and treated me yesterday. I felt good."
"What are you talking about? I don't know."
"What's with this creep?"
One of his friends asked.
"I don't know , these fellows are really weird sometimes."
He said looking at his friends and left while I stood there like a maniac saying things that never happened.
