Enchanted Love

A warm touch made his face twist in a good way as he touched his chest to find her fingers on it. His lips curved up to a smile still on his closed eyes. Alex felt so good to sleep peacefully after a long time. He felt unusually great and doesn’t want to break this nightmare that he is seeing right now. A full white room where he was just happy with everything and he had someone behind him with the same happiness-filled face. He turned to see who was and found Clara in her glowing face. Her twinkling eyes made his heart flip. Her pouting lips always demand a small peck over it. Her milky cheeks tempt him to touch it. That was a lovely dream and he doesn’t want to wake up anytime soon.

As the dream goes by, he could feel that it was a dream and he is no longer with her now. Every painful moment returned to his mind, reminding him of reality.

Sunrays made his eyes slowly open as they met the most innocent face ever. Clara was sleeping just beside him like a sleeping angel. He admired her as he tucks her hair behind her ears. He widened his eyes when he noticed her hand over his tattoo. What the hell? Did she try to do something? How inappropriate?

“Rape, Rape. Anybody save me!” Alex screamed as Clara jumped from her sleep and stood up abruptly.

“How dare you take advantage of me?” He asked as he closed his shirt as if protecting it from her evil eyes. Clara gaped at his words and was hell embarrassed to be caught touching his tattoo. Why should she even care about his discomfort in the first place? She should have left him like that in the same position.

“Wait a minute!” Alex tried to remember something.

“Did you give me those medicines for this?” He asked, gasping dramatically at her. Clara rolled her eyes at his words. And she has no replies to him. That felt like a burden for her not to reply to him.

“Don’t scream,” Clara yelled at him as she didn’t want her parents to hear this nonsense.

“Why? Are you scared that your mom and dad would hear your actions?” He asked, crossing his arms.

“They should see what you are doing here with me?” Alex added as he was about to call them to seek justice.

“I should have just left you like a dustbin in the hall where you fell. Sorry that I helped you to sleep here. Sorry that I thought it must be hot for you and I unbuttoned you to make you sleep” she yelled at him closing her eyes. She could have replied something else to piss him off but she felt terrible to be caught touching his tattoos.

“Why did I even feel pity for you?” She yelled again as she punched the bean bag with her legs but with a force she stumbled and was about to fall. He ran to her side and caught her at the right time before the fall.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Don’t touch me” she wriggled in his arms.

“You only have the liberty to touch me?” He replied as her face flushed red now with his words. Why should she face this day like this? The previous day she kissed him and now this. She pushed him instantly as she had no energy left to argue with him.

“Thanks” he muttered after a long silence between them.

“Thanks for taking care of me even though we have enough differences.” He ended as he slowly helped her to stand on her feet. She lowered her eyes as she moved her hair behind her ears. Didn’t she know how much this action affected him? Or is she purposefully doing this?

Mira went hysterical learning that Alex never returned to the house by night. She was calling him since night and he didn’t even pick up her calls nor replied to her messages. Asking Edward, he informed her that Alex was there only. But he went to drop Clara. The last information was not at all pleasant.

she took her mobile and tried to call him again. He promised to meet her mom. She controlled her rage as she waited for him to pick up the call.

****

Alex went to the washroom leaving Clara. The door closed behind. Clara sighed in relief. She started cleaning her room which was messed up.

A small piece of music pierced the room as her eyes fell over his phone. Mira is calling him. Her face turned hardened when she saw her name with a yellow heart beside it. Why does he have to save her name with a heart?

”We shall go and meet your mom tomorrow.” Alex’s words to Mira flashed over her head as a smirk appeared on her face. She attended the call with the same evil smirk.

She had to admit that teasing Mira became a new hobby to her now.

Soon the call was picked up. She heaved a sigh and said hello in the most innocent way possible showing how much she was worried for him.

Clara internally laughed hearing her voice. She is trying hell to make Alex realise her love for him. Poor Mira.

“Alex, where are you? I was waiting for you. You didn’t come home?” She asked in her panicked tone. But Clara can tell that she already knows that Alex is with Clara. What an actor? Why does he have such a friend?

“Are you alright?” She asked for further shifting from her place. Why is he not replying?

“He is in the bathroom. I will ask him to call you back.” Clara replied in her curt voice. Mira widened her eyes realising that Alex still is there and Clara dared to take his call?

“Why did you take the call then?” Mira yelled and screamed at Clara expressing that she doesn’t like to talk to her.

“Baby doll. Calm down. Your prince is coming. I was tired and couldn’t see whose phone it was. So I just took the call.” Clara replied uninterested.

“By the way, I think he can’t make it to see your mom with you today. I mean, it was a long night for him. He will be very tired.” Clara tried to control her laughter but hearing her gasping sound, she felt like dancing.

“Tired?” Mira asked in her low voice but her fast heartbeat was loud enough for Clara to laugh again.

“Yup, we were very busy till I guess 3 in the night. But I don’t think it would be appropriate for me to tell you in detail. You can ask him for more details. You will love it. Bye baby doll” Clara hung up the call and she is very sad that she couldn’t see Mira’s face now. But yeah, she is excited to see how Alex will react to her for this. Upsetting Mira means upsetting him.

Alex came after a shower which he needed the most. Clara dropped the phone on the bed, seeing him in just a towel. His milky chest glowed like the sun whereas the tattoo highlighted his stumble chest. Is he playing another cheap game with her?

“Can’t you wear anything and come?” She yelled as she turned away not to get caught ogling him for another time.

“Give me something else. It was spoiled.” Alex replied and took another yellow towel to dry his hair to particularly piss off her.

“That’s my towel. Get your hands off from that” Clara yelled and tried to snatch the towel but he stood there shamelessly as if challenging her to come near him. She stomped her foot and went away in anger.

Clara took the most annoying colour shirt from her dad and took matchless jeans to give to Alex. She came back and knocked on the door once and got inside to throw the dress.

He was still in the towel. She cursed her fate as she came inside, closing her eyes.

“Do you still feel shy to see me in a towel?” He asked, whispering near her ears as she jumped with his proximity.

“Alex, stay away. You are no one to me and I don’t care if you are in a towel or without a towel” Clara yelled at him while he grabbed her by her waist.

“Oh, you want to see me without a towel? I am sorry. I can’t offer that now” his reply made her widen her eyes. His flirty dialogues are back? Why does he wanna flirt with her again? Clara could feel her heart flip with his flirty comments as usual.

“I know that your heart is now craving for me. But I can’t forgive you and accept you back in my life.” His words made her come out of her dreamy world. Her eyes teared up with his harsh words. Did he mean those? Why does it have to sound so real? Did she show him that she is craving for him?

“Leave me” she mumbled, stressing her words. Her sarcastic replies are dead with his remarks.

“Why? Yesterday night we were very busy till 3 in the night with something so romantic. Right? So why do you feel so awkward now?” Okay, he is angry with her little prank with Mira. The fact that he is angry for hurting Mira made her mad. If this is the case, she would hurt Mira like hell and would be happy to see him suffering. As for Alex, he heard her telling those stories to Mira.
