Amber's P. O. V

"So you can decide, you want to stay with us at home or go to college with Vihaan?" Krisanne asks me and I keep my eyes shut because I'm sleepy.

It's not like with them open its alot different.

"Is going back to sleep there in the options?" I ask her and there's silence even though I can feel her gaze on me.

"I hate to do this to you. I would have let you be but I can't so you will have to choose," she says and I rub my eye a little before combing my bed hair with my hand.

"Why are Ethan and Ayana not on the options?" I ask her randomly and I hear her take a deep breath.

"They already left."

I take a deep breath before weighing my options.

If I stay at home, I'll be comfortable but I'll be bored because these two are studying. If I go to college with Vihaan, I may not be very comfortable but at least I won't be bored.

Okay, I'm going to college.

"I'll go with Vihaan. I don't want to third wheel your study date with my brother," I say and I'm guessing she's frowning. When she doesn't say anything I give her a nervous smile.

"You go get freshened up, I'll go and wake Vihaan up," she says and I nod slowly, my eyes half shut, happy that she let that comment go.

She walks out and I very slowly and grumpily get up. I walk two steps ahead before turning and counting my steps to the washroom.

Here, another day begins.

**************************

"Vihaan get up! Amber is already ready ya now," Krisanne yells at, I guess, a sleeping Vihaan.

Just when I walk out the door of my room, I hear Krisanne screaming. I touch the wall and walk towards the noise with it's support.

"Go away ya," a hear Vihaan's voice that sounds muffled.

Suddenly there's a cavity in the wall and I feel the edges to see its the door of the room.

"Vihaan even Amber's here now, have some shame!" Krisanne yells again and I furrow my brows.

"For her, it doesn't matter even if I'm shirtless," he says nonchalantly and my cheeks redden, even though I can't see anything.

How can he just...

Krisanne is there, still he's shirtless.

Maybe that's a usual thing for them?

"But I'm standing here! Isn't that enough? Just get up and go!" Krisanne yells again and I hear Vihaan scoff.

Okay, my question is answered.

"You aren't even looking at me, you're back is facing me," he says and Krisanne yells in frustration while I'm just standing there, with a poker face, confused.

"Okay, fine. Don't get up, don't go to college, don't work! Just keep sleeping there, we are your servan-" Vihaan cuts Krisanne's emotional blackmail rant.

"Fine! I'm getting up. Take Amber in the hall, give me ten minutes," he says, anger and annoyance clear in his voice.

I can almost feel Krisanne's victorious smile."Good. Ten minutes."

*************************

"Yeah, but where is my carriage?" Vihaan retorts to some girl who gave him third degree treatment. The way she spoke to him, and the way I'm feeling alot of pair of eyes on me right now, I can tell that Vihaan's famous and doesn't fall short of lovers and enemies here.

That girl snorts and Vihaan just taps me with his hand on my upper back, signalling me to walk ahead. His hand immediately drops and I inwardly smile.

I walk ahead and I feel him behind me, walking at a safe distance. I can feel eyes on me, making me feel all weird.

"Vihaan!" a cheery voice catches my attention and I hear footsteps walking towards us.

"Amna!" Vihaan exclaims and I suddenly feel a presence near me.

"Hey, who's the pretty girl?" she asks and Vihaan chuckles.

"Exactly not who you think she is, she's one of the three people who have come from abroad," Vihaan introduces me and I frown slightly wondering who the hell the girl thought I was.

"Hey! I'm Amna," she says and becomes silent as if waiting for something. I smile at her before introducing myself.

"Amber."

Still silence. Just when it started to become awkward Amna spoke again.

"Oh, okay," she says before I felt a soft girl's hand take my hand,"I'm sorry I didn't know you can't see. I'm Amna, I'm one of the student council member. So while Ayana and Krisanne are not here, if there's anything you need, feel free to tell me."

I smile at her before nodding my head. She drops my head and I guess turns to Vihaan.

"Vihaan, there's alot of work. The entire final day setup plan is ready, Ayana and Krisanne need to finalise it. The caterers need to be fixed, the music system guy is creating tantrums,-" Amna starts off with her rant and Vihaan cuts her off.

"Okay, don't worry. I'll handle it. See, whatever is 90% ready, let those be. I'll make sure Ayana comes tommorow and finalises everything. For today, you tell me about the people I need to deal with, who are creating problems for you guys," Vihaan, being the gentleman that he is, says before turning to me.

"Amber, you want to roam around with me or sit and relax somewhere. I'll leave someone with you to take care of you," he offers and going against every screaming cell in my body, I listen to a deep corner of my mind.

"I'll roam with you."

**********************

I should have sat.

Vihaan's working and even though it's a good thing that he is working, I'm totally not enjoying it.

That's when I hear a flash go off.

"What happened?" I ask, becoming alert suddenly.

"Nothing, I'm just snapping everyone and doing what I'm in charge of," Vihaan tells me and I sigh.

"Photography section, documenting the event and it's preparations?" I ask again and I feel him sit next to me.

"Yup, you got that right. Anyway, I hope you're not bored," he says and I roll my eyes.

"Yeah, you're working, everyone is working while I'm here, just sitting. I'm not bored at all," I mutter sarcastically and he chuckles.

"So now you're sarcastic as well. Where is that girl who I soaked with coffee on the first day?" he asks me and I fiddle with my fingers.

"Oh she's there, right here. She's just got more comfortable with you," I say.

"So you change when you become comfortable with a person?" he asks and I nod.

"Yeah, everyone changes when they find someone who they can completely relate to and be comfortable around. Even you did change from a quiet to quirky boy when you met Ayana," I say and immediately bite my tongue.

Here it goes.

"They told you?!" he asks and I rub my neck before nodding.

"Yeah, don't tell them that I told you that they told me, did you get it?" I blabber and he laughs.

"Yeah, I won't. So, your comfortable around me, huh?" he teases and I feel heat rushing to my cheeks.

"Well, yeah. You're the first guy I have gotten comfortable with in quite some time now," I say, surprising myself with my confidence. I feel that heart melting stare on me again, the one that I felt on the first day. The one that makes me feel conscious, the one that makes me feel like I'm the one thing in the room that's worth watching.

I don't know if Vihaan actually is looking at me like that or it's my intuition, but I'm definitely feeling it.

And then, ever so softly, like he's admitting it to himself, he agrees.

"Me too."
