Falling in Love Was Not the Plan — Chapter 11

After that night with Martin Alex really focused on what his friend made him aware of. He sat with Amara everyday after lectures, sometimes before the lectures and even during the break between two classes those were proving out to be very helpful.

She was not what she has showed her herself— Alex realized when they started spending time together. For him it was a compromise for the sake of the finals but when he was not aware of was— that she was slowly falling for him. His actions, cute smile, funny jokes, confused face wjile she explained to something, the fear of failing, infinite stupid questions and many other stuff was attracting her.

For him it was his normal behaviour he would express in front of anyone but for Amara it seemed more than comforting. She assumed it was only for her and he was just behaving like that only around her. She was knitting some fairy tale like dreams that were never going to be fulfilled.

"This theory looks interesting. I think I can do it on my own." Sye was lost in his facial features. That pair of eyes always intrigued her. Amara learned many of his habits which according to her nobody has ever noticed about him. "Uh, Amara let's not do this theory. I will do it on my own. You teach me the sums now." It was only his lips that she can see and the words they verbalized never reached her ears.

Two years in this college and she never spent this much time with anyone before. Not because she did not want to but because nobody never considered her worthy at all. For all the students in this college, it was a must to be bold and have beneficial relationship with someone in order to make their place on the campus.

And Amara never looked like the type of girl who could be dated. Just the look of her shabby loose clothes and the big fat specs on her nose would give them the idea how boring she could be! In fact, on the campus where every second girl had big boobs and curved from the down, who would want to date Amara who neither had anything in her!

"Hey, Amara are you there? Amara!!" He spoke too much all this while but she kept quiet not uttering a freaking word that made him look at her face from the book. "Amara!" Alex shoot her shoulder vigorously that even the neurons of her brain might have quivered.

His lashes suspiciously narrowed while his pupils stared her with confusion. Something has been wrong with her lately. He noticed some strange things about her in the last week. Although they were left to cover up most of the portion for the finals within the left three weeks only and seldom anything was done, Amara still urged him to sit together in the library and study.

Correction, not study precisely but talk. Yeah, She would only talk to him about everything other than studies. He did like her smile, moreover the fact that he never imagined she could be this zealous and a good company there was still something he missed to see.

"Uh I am sorry. I was zoned out. So what were you saying?" She hesitantly asked feeling embarrassed. It was not in her nature to act like that— stare someone, think alien about their lips and Greek God like body! Her fingers unknowingly started to tremble and a different feeling arisen in her heart. "I... I need to go!" With no explanation, no clarification Amara gathered her stuff not before she dashed out of the library such that even the librarian shockingly watched tué path she left by.

"Did something happen!" The librarian questioned Alex who replied with a negative nod.

His confusion was on the top level as different thoughts disturbed him. Firstly, Perry and he again slept together last night and like any other time she left without seeing him. Secondly, again Amara called him for studies in the library but did not study anything. This happened third time in the week.

So many things were occurring and he had no idea why was that?

Alex searched for Amara on the college premises hoping to ask her what was wrong. She was not his relative nor any friend still for the sake of humanity and the reason that she was helping him— it became his obligation to inquire what was the matter with him.

'I don't know what is wrong with her! Why does she call me if she does not want to study at all. And today she crossed the limits... She ran away without informing me. What is going on with her, damn it. Gosh, this girl will drive me crazy.'

Alex checked her favorite places one by one, at the same time he took up the task of calling her. The college was empty, students were given study leave for a week and today was the third day. Yeah, three days and Amara never started anything for studies with him which was indeed amusing.

He even checked the classes, lab and basket ball court alas she was nowhere to be found. The growing temper of his made him feel irritated while her sudden absence frustrated him.

"Ehh Alex!" While he was going to return to the library and take the books he needed for revision he came across Charlie.

Being dressed in a clumsy jacket with a fake purple wig he waved at him. Alex's lips pressed together when his stupid clown friend bent down and bowed which gave him the idea that— he was drunk.

"Now what's wrong with you buddy!" frustratingly saying that alex took Charlie to the nearby class, away from the CCTV. He exhaled a breath of irritation realizing he was not actually drunk but pretended that. "Dude what the fuck is wrong with you all! Why do you all want to irritate me." Alex hissed before he made a step toward the end of the exit.

He was extremely pissed off. One could see that on his face as that was pasted everywhere on his front. The tension of the finals was unnerving and here these stupid refused staying calm andet him focus. Any which way earlier than Alex can cross the door and go at once then he was harshly pulled inside and pinned to the wall.

"Don't go out Alex or else you will be in trouble!" Charlie's sentence left him amused. "Actually Bella is out there and— she heard us speak about you and Amara."

The expressions his fair face entertained really meant that he was suppressing his urge of punching his face. The way Alex gawked Charlie, it made a sense if anxiety engulf him. "So what ha!" he literally growled as Charlie refused to loosen his grip on his shoulders.

However, when he made it clear to him why was he asking him that than everything made sense. "Gosh! Alex are for real or not? You made Bella break up with her boyfriend last night and you proposed her too! Now if you'd go out and if she anyway gets to know you did everything just for fun then she will create a mess." On completion of that Charlie playfully slapped Alex's head. "And another bad news is that— Perry is here too.... In the staff room with professor Green."

As soon as he finished Alex gritted his teeth thinking, 'these girls will kill me.'

Tbc…
