Chapter 43: Hilary's First Love.

Quote for the chapter:

Hilary: I was in rain, you would be holding me if I were there, you would have been wet, so I left, I left you.

Tyson: I promised you, I would hold you in all circumstances, you don't need to fight the rain, I'll hold you; hold you in the rain under my jacket.

XD XD XD XD XD XD

There is a slight high rated scene upcoming here in this chapter which I'm sure is not your regular T rated stuff as per me, so a little heads up and warnings. Kids below 17, go and grab some popcorn and run to your nearby park or watch Doraemon xD

Tyson had spent half of the day with…washing machine! Ha, washing his clothes, meanwhile, Hilary took the courage to study for some time. After a long time, she was seated fully, concentrated on the subject- Physics. Rolling the pen sometimes through her fingers, she was alternating herself with ideas and then immediately penning down something. Tyson almost got tensed seeing the fat book with her. To her, it was just not a thick book, something productive that many students comprehended as nightmares. Physics problems! Noo! That was what they thought. They worked silently for almost few hours, except that the gurgling and whirling sounds of the machine would irritate her sometimes, and she could feel that something wrong was with it, not because of its own fault, but because of the worker who was handling it.

Tyson sighed as he dumped another heap of his shaggy clothes in the replenished water, and wiped his forehead. Noticing that it was causing disturbance to her, he shut the door and because it was the last trip, he showered quickly and ended along with end of the spinning of machine. He dried them for some minutes and took all the clothes in his balcony and pinned them on the temporary ropes he tied to the ends of the opposite walls.

Hilary was almost done and she was contended that that made her tired. She closed her books, and grabbed a white bath gown, and rushed for showering as he was done and now was lying tired on the coach. He rolled his eyes, and examined his room for some time. It was hard to believe that he has done almost the works he would take two days within few hours. Washing, cleaning, wiping the drained water, soaking and drying and finally pinning them for sunlight. Now, he was almost lulled to a sleep after a warm bath but somehow he managed to dry his hair. The hair dryer was barely on his table. He was careless not to put on its proper place. Done with that, he forced himself to spare some brief glances at his notes too. The examinations were nearing, two months more to go. He has to do something. Ryu will be returning within no time and he didn't want him to be upset. Wheeew, He sighed.

For some reason, he couldn't find his bag pack and that shocked him the most. Perfect timing. I never want to study and now when I've summoned my mental status to do it, my bag pack runs away from me! Great!

He had a forlorn expression and he thumped back to the couch again. A few minutes later, Hilary showed up, her hair tied up in a bun, soaking briefly. Her pale skin of yesterday was replaced with glowing milky smooth fairness. He instantly got attracted towards her. If Hilary wasn't food, he'd have been drooling. But the truth was, her eyes were unfalteringly shimmering, and the cream-white gown she was wrapped by was appealing scene to witness. For her, she was tired and didn't notice his undying gaze on her. Casually, she ambled towards his table opening her bun in an alluring way. If intensity could kill, she would have been shattered right then. She began drying her hair which was streaming freely through the warm air. The next moment, he was staring her all over, somehow unable to control his gazes.

Suddenly, something struck in his mind. What's happening with me? Why am I staring her so hard? I just couldn't move my eyes elsewhere. No! This is just wrong, stop it. But…I love her. Don't I? But then, it would be right only if I had confessed her long back. Why didn't I do it?... I'm gonna do it. Yep, it's now. Nooo! But she'll freak out again like she did when Kai did the same. What shall I do?! Fine, fine, I'm just gonna…uh, kiss her! IF she understands, fine, or else it's just the same.

He strode towards her with careful and confident steps. She didn't notice until he was right in front of her staring her so cravingly and earnestly. She was first a little confused and then smiled a little. He was sure of what he was going to do. His expressions didn't falter and within seconds, he has effectively pinned her to the wall.

Why don't you understand? Is it too so complicated for you to see through this? I should rather be in your position. You were the one who knew everything. I was the fool, the late comprehend, when and how our roles did got reversed?

Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love
When I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone

She could see him, mere centimeters apart, and his eyes targeting her lips, already. Unflinching for even a second, he had locked his lips with her, his left hand perfectly around her waist. She received a thunder shock when he fastened and intensified, sucking her lower lip, reminding him of strawberries. Unknown to herself, she responded involuntarily, smacking her lips with all the potential she could muster. She just couldn't believe it happening. This was just happening right now. I was feeling him. He is K-kissing me. Every inch of her soul was elated every part of her body vibrated. Experiencing his lips on hers was new and she had never been through this- never this passionately. And now when she was tasting him, she was euphoric and felt the moment never to cease. She felt him seeking permission inside her pink cave, which she didn't hesitate to give and slowly gasped getting a brief warm breath inside. She absolutely relished him, exploring her inside, though she hadn't eaten anything since morning, except a little cocaine. She wondered if he would taste it. He was giving everything that she found unfaltering and true. He wouldn't mind if she were weak, like she began starving for breath by the moment. He was overwhelmed, she was patient, and she only winced when she felt her gown loosening. He parted and florid flushed and was breathing hard and wrapping herself in nervous state, her hands shivering slightly. He felt silent watching her with calm expression, until he felt an urge to stop her. His hands headed to her back holding her robes and she was reluctant to unhand them. He looked at her, giving her a nod. Her hands slipped and he quietly tied them.

He had many questions in his speeding mind, but he kept the pace to shut his mouth. She was staring at the floor with confused lips, getting an urge to rub them.

"Are you okay?" he asked her softly.

"Yeah!" she panicked.

"Hey, calm down. I'm sorry if I scared you."

"You weren't kidding." She sighed, "That was true, or else it would have never happened." She said countering his eyes.

He gasped a little and stared her in shocked expressions. Did she re-really mean that?

"I think I've got the right." He smirked a little, his skin gaining confidence and triumph.

"You are naïve." She laughed a little.

"You are sweet, sweetheart."

"Tyson..." she wanted to laugh yet blush hard and… she was fighting it, "You know, I won't say anything, and count me, I won't."

"Hils who would argue with his best friend? That's too declared."

"Trust me, if I weren't me, if you weren't my best friend, anyone would have panicked even before you touch." She said daring to poke on his nose tip.

"Thanks god, it was you." He smirked, a little sarcastically.

"Now, let me get changed before it gets open again." She jaded a little.

"Haha, sure." He left giving her a peck of brief kiss on her cheek and swiftly disappearing.

"Somethings never change."

She wasn't afraid, she was not insecure, she was contended, she loved what happened, she didn't do any introspection, she didn't examine his intentions or her but she felt purely in bliss when he was too close. She got quickly changed into black short sleeved top and black denims. It was too perfect for today.

Can't believe he just kissed…- Can't believe 'we' just kissed… This is so cute… We should have not ended this, I shouldn't… I like him…Just like him so much!

She never envisaged he would be a perfect kisser, likewise, she never though she would respond so effectively. She smiled as the scene came rewinding in her mind and she slightly blushed, almost feeling the same sensations again. Secretly, she craved it again. If granted again, she would be careful and sedate. Now, she would put up the normal demeanor, watch him in secret blithe and bliss, and wait till it would happen again.

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this..

She rushed downstairs, seeing both of them casually, and talking about something. She noticed it was Tyson who was speaking and the listener Kai who was simply either nodding or staring him hard. No chance of eavesdropping, better thing- approach directly.

"So, you both planned to finally talk." She gave a half smile.

"Uh, nothing." Tyson said quickly.

"Hils, we want you to promise one thing." Kai said smiling a little.

"What Kai?"

"Promise you would take care of your health and dump those trash pills."

"Huh, uh, okay." She said crossing her fingers.

"Well, and you'll be mimicking my appetite from now onwards." Tyson chuckled.

"I can't, but I promise, I'll take care, just for you both." She smiled.

Kai gave an assured nod while Tyson stared her.

"Apart from everything else, thanks a lot for being so caring friends."

"Aw Hil, we are always for you, no matter what happens."

"Just promise me one thing, both of you," she said her voice breaking, cracking.

They nodded,

"Promise me you'll never fight against each other, for anything, for anyone, for me!" She said her eyes clearly narrowed yet glistened.

"Huh!" they gasped, looking at each other and her.

"We promise Hil, we won't, please don't cry." Kai stood from his chair and held her hand. She looked down, sobbing slightly. Tyson gave a sad smile. I shouldn't have fought Kai that day. I just should have taken Hil. What's the difference between me and him? Thank god, I didn't attack him that day. I'm sorry Hil, knowingly I've hurt you when I was hurt. Unknowingly, you've hurt me sometimes.

"Hil, you don't need to cry for us. We are bad, we've fought, we've hurt you at some time, made you insecure when we didn't intended but then we were so selfish, naive and indifferent. Forgive us, forgive us!" Kai said tightening his grip on her wrist. She gave a soft and full smile.

"I know, it takes heart and guts for you to say this. I know you have shattered every ounce of your pride saying me this and whatever since…but then I can't grasp out why we have been so this way, I will never leave you guys alone just like I never had when your opponents would turn against you."

"Hn."

"Kai, Kai, bro I never guessed you did this!" Tyson joked and Kai rolled his eyes, Hilary giving a soft laugh.

"You guys are same as ever, I guess I'm the only one odd out." She laughed as she left them heading to kitchen.

"Hils, please don't put chilies in my sandwich!"

"I want the cakes you gave me that day." Kai mentioned, a little smile crawling on him face.

"Suurre!"

It was clear six in the morning and Tyson was sleeping deep- dreaming of the things he has been wanting. It was cold outside, damn cold, it wouldn't rain yet and he was lying so carelessly and yet cutely on his bed. His tangled royal blue bangs were messed up beautifully, as usual. His hand was on his abdomen, his green top a little upside and the loose pajamas as usual. Hilary was awake. When she got up, she washed herself first and resisting her yawns. She gathered her books and adjusted them on the desk and covered him in the sheets. It was like before twilight, she loved this time and she wouldn't waste her time in sleeping, soon she have to rush to her work.

Kai and Ray were surprisingly awake too but their works differed a lot. Ray was planting the rose cut stem in the softened soil he dug, while Kai was loosening his muscles up on the hill and working up, and Kenny wasn't there. Well, he was gone for a trip and therefore he wouldn't be there for a month.

The leaves were falling, the wind was blowing through the windows, the sunshine was hidden, and Tyson never knew his story was coming to an end.

…

…

Days passed and they were living peacefully, calmly without troubles. Tyson and Kai rather talked even when there was nothing to deal with so as to satisfy their female friend whenever she was around. Max and Mariam had made up. They had started training a few kids in the park, eventually finding a reason to see each other every day.

Ray had changed. It was surprising to note that Ray who and undergone a huge depression since months was recovering slowly. Salima was gone, she wouldn't come back and it wasn't possible for any strength to bring her back. Yeah, he did regret losing her. She was right in front of her, telling him every moment that she loved him so much but he just didn't see it. She would always be the one he would love though she would never come back. He hoped he would see her one day in heaven. In her memory, he visited her grave each day. He could still remember all the times she was with him.

Even if we're feeling down, we'd smile once we realize,

That as long as we're together, our world would come to life once again

-I missed you so much Ray!—I will bring the blades for you!—I dint broke our promise, I went to bring the blades! -Nice to meet you—I think there is much more than balding in this world to explore—

Getting a perfect reason to escape his day at school, Tyson had already framed Ray's mind to fight Hilary if she go mad at him.

He'd planned wisely how he was going to prevent himself from drowning into thoughts in everyone's' absence. His day accounted ironing, surprising the brunette in the late afternoon by preparing her favorite fried pork, and then practicing for an hour and finally playing some guitar on the eve for no breakings in their propinquity.

The day was light, bare clouds, bare sunshine as well but cold rustles streaming. She perceived them as soft in the college-day-time. It was peaceful today. She hasn't been upset about anything and they had a fair time discussing about any breaks they'd be taking from their monotonous routine if any. She had a cool time playing basketball with the active blonde, Margot and Deles. Though, she isn't the brightest player but working physically somewhat had indeed lightened up.

Just an hour more to go and she's getting an already euphoric bubbling for runnin' to dojo for a certain blunette. The scene in which she was living right now was worth describing. Her middle sized bench was near the not-so-clear glass panel and above which the cool air was fluttering inside. The lights were dim at the moment and for a fleeting second, she felt if clouds were going to shadow them once again but it just seemed quite alright. She was standing, packing her bag already and smiling to herself. A few days without any fight has absolutely changed her little introspective for the blue-head, she's been aware that her inner self is falling, yeah, falling for him, and she always managed to conceal it by rather pulling a quite normal conversation with him trying to convince herself that nothing's different. His absence of any arguments had secretly pleasured her, and she was satisfied with everything. She was smiling to herself when her book fell down and she broke from her chain of thoughts and picked them. She had decided by now, she was going to stir the matter and analyze her feelings and probably confess him soon. Pictures of him came back in her mind, all she could do was prevent her lips from grinning or giving a full fledge involuntary smile.

Remembering the times… We were together, we are! The first time we hugged at your victory, can feel the same again. Don't know how, but suddenly I'm feeling that I guess I love you? Wow! I really said that? Okay Tyson, I'm going to try and I know you won't let me down. I know it! She smirked a little naively but was contended.

The times we spent together, and the miracles we created,

I want to convey all these feelings; hoping I can always be with you

Memories came drifting back in her mind like screen shots lasting long- when he discovered her little room first time, his curiosity in helping her, little warmth and intense comfort that was given, times when he was almost tried to tease her but kept his impulsiveness at check to not upset her state any further, the time when he almost scared her shirtless just for taking his phone back and the moments when they took their selfie and she reminded him to get dressed once, times when he was upset for leaving him alone when the other teams had gathered…many moments ranging from their drunken dances to the contrite ones.

Those hands of yours, are what I wish to hold most,

For we can share our feelings, as long as we try

She treasured all of them and she was deeply infatuated of everything that belonged to him. Apart from their past bickering that ended long back, she strangely misses them now. She dint worry for his response, she knew he cared her a lot and admitting him could never go wrong, he'd never reject her or at least she was quite sure that he wouldn't upset her. She had the slightest idea, that maybe, he liked her back…

I want to be by your side, and not just any other person's,

For you're irreplaceable in my heart, forever and always

For some reason, I feel so happy today! I never knew I actually had been troubled by not understanding that I actually feel so strong for him! Now that, I guess, I'm clear, I will say him! Oh Tyson, why you had to be so enchanting! I might have always loved you…
