Sunshine high clinic**
Eddy rushed in with BB in his arms and he was ushered into a ward where he placed her on the be-d, she was immediately attended to while he waited outside, hoping seriously that she’d be fine
“plea-se plea-se, plea-se nothing must happen to you… plea-se” he whispered, pacing around
” Eddy!” Olive said from the end of the hallway, he turned to her and she rushed to him
“I heard the students murmuring it among themselves, how you took her here, that’s why I c@mĀ£, what exactly happened” she asked worriedly
” I’ve detected it since last night but she’s too stubborn, she kept saying she’s ok, I suddenly noticed she wasn’t behind us again when we were going to clas-s, I heard conversation in the rooftĀ©p and went there to see her with Drew, she pas-sed out alre-ady so I had to take her here” he replied
” You must have been so scared” she said
“I was, but I’m sure she’d be ok , she’s strong” he replied and Olive hvgged him
” Let’s keep hoping that she’d be fine” she said and he slowly broke the hvg,,
A minute later, the doctor c@mĀ£ out with a smile on his face
“It’s a slight fever, she’d be ok after taking some rest” he said and Eddy sighed
” I’m so glad”
“Will she really be ok?” Olive asked
“Trust me she’ll wake up let’s say an hour from now, it might not be up to an hour” he replied
” Feels good to hear” Olive said and Eddy smiled as the doctor left, he entered the ward with Olive and sat right beside BB on the be-d
“Can’t believe she looks fearless and dangerous even while asleep” Olive said
” You’re intrigued too right?, She amazes me seriously, she’s unique don’t you think?” Eddy said, tou-ching BB’s hair fondly, she won’t allow him if she was awake so he made use of the opportunity
“Unique?” Olive said, feeling uncomfortable with his hand on BB’s hair
*Sure, she lives in her own world and doesn’t give a $h!tty damn about what anyone thinks or says, isn’t that the real definition of unique?, Her craziness is cute too, she’s cute herself but she hates admitting it” he smiled, still stro-king her hair
Olive watched hurtfully, wishing it was her hair he’s tou-ching
“I’ll use the washroom” she said
“Ok” Eddy smiled and she left for the restroom
“Stubborn thvg….wake up fast” Eddy said, bending over to give BB a light pe-ck on her cheek
Olive got to the washroom, slamming the door ha-rd behind her, she turned on one of the water dispensers and collected water in her palm before pouring it on her face, she did that a number of times before looking up at the mirror..
She adjusted her hair and looked at her new earrings
“I got these because of him, I got them with the aim of ma-king him notice me but what?, He’s not helping matters, aren’t I beautiful?, I want him to pe-ck me and stro-ke my hair too!” She shouted at herself
She felt pathetic and helpless, she has been like this since a month ago,,
She got scholarsh!pInto the school a month ago together with him, they wrote the exams on same day, they sat beside each other in the hall and it was love at first sight, she ba-rely concentrated on her exams and when they were done, she introduced herself and made friends with him, luckily he accepted.
When they finally got admitted, they bec@mĀ£ best of friends and since then, she has been doing everything possible to make him realize she loves him more than a friend but the clueless dude won’t just notice and it hurts
She looked at herself in the mirror again and sighed. “I love him” she whispered slowly

MM group of companies**
“Yay!!!!, I won another round, Mr Austen isn’t that great?, This is the fifth round I’d be winning…. OMG!!” Nikita shouted childishly, jumping up and down on her chair
Austen watched with interest, smiling at her childishness, he saw her childishness today and what?
It’s fvĀ¢king cute!, Everything about her is cute anyways
“You’ve become a pro alre-ady, I envy your smartness and at this rate I might decide to make you the CEO of this company” he said and she laughed
” Heavy joke” she said
He finished accessing the files on his desk before going to her, he sat on the chair beside her and watched as the pla-yed the sixth round keenly
“Yes yes….yes it’s cl!Ƨk!ng right?, Mr Austen… It’s cl!Ƨk!ng” she said in a low voice
” Seems you’ll lose this round” Austen tea-sed
” StĀ©p being pessimistic!” She said loudly and he laughed
” Cli-ck cli-ck cli-ck…..puff!, Yeah!, Yay!!!” She shouted, jumping up on her chair again, she won again
“Mr Austen I won!” She shouted happily and Austen smiled again
Saying she’s the source of his smile wasn’t wrong, she’s adding a lot of sauce to his life even without her own knowledge
If only she knows how much her smile makes him happy, if only he knows how much her laughter sets his heart on the edge, and now he noticed how cute her gums are, her gums are so cute like a kid’s, then herl-ips, his mind started imagining how tender it’ll be.
He leaned in at once but got a hold of himself then stood up quic-kly
“I nee-d to use the bathroom” he said
“Ok boss” she smiled and he quic-kly snuck into the bathroom
He ran his hand throu-gh his hair immediately he got there, thinking about what he nearly did the other time
“I almost k!$$Ā£d her” he said to himself and heaved
“Can’t believe it’s becoming ha-rder and ha-rder to control myself around her” he said, walking around the bathroom
He closed his eyes ti-ghtly and when he opened them again, he walked out to meet her, she’s alre-ady done with his second cu-p of coffee, she was just placing it on the table when he appeared
“How fast” he said, lifting it to hisl-ips,
“I hate slacking off* she smiled, l!Ƨk!ng on her bo-ttoml!pcutely and that made him choke on the coffee
He coughed loudly. “Mr Austen are you ok?, Mr Austen” Nikita said quic-kly, tou-ching his hands
” I’m ok.. I’m fine” he coughed again
“Oh no, what do I do, is the coffee too warm?, Is it not same as the ones I used to make?” She said worriedly, ma-king him sit
” It’s not the coffee” he replied, calming down
” Then what?” She asked
āYourl-ipsā he thought, looking at her worried face
“Austen plea-se say something” she said, tou-ching his face lightly
Merely feeling her hand on his face is driving him insane alre-ady, so much that he re-moved it and drew her to his l@ps, she fell on his l@ps, her back on him,,
He interlocked his f!ngerson her tummy, holding her to himself, resting his head on her back
“Stay for two minutes plea-se” he whispered, closing his eyes.
