Rescuer

He picks up his bag and turns towards her, signalling that he’d be waiting right outside.. She nods at him, collecting her belongings from the messy table they were both seated at.

As soon as she steps out of the class, she feels his gaze on her and as an automatic response, a smile escapes from her mouth. He smiles back, looking into her eyes, reaching for the deepest corners of her mind while he settles into a huge part of it. Little did he know that that smile of his made her heart skip a beat, making her fall in love with him- a little bit more everyday.. 

Subconsciously, she inserts her hand into her pockets, reaching for her phone. The feeling of a strange anxiety creeps into her mind as she finds her pockets to be flaccid. Knowing his playful nature, she turns to him and demands for her phone. “I don’t have it,” he said, letting out a little smirk from the edge of his mouth. 

The lift arrives and both of them step in, standing right beside each other. His eyes met hers and within a second, she was aware of all his mischievous thoughts. She prevents the lift door from closing and asks the guy standing before them if he wished to go down. He pulls her back into the lift saying- “he doesn’t want to..” - with a hint of annoyance in his coarse, yet pleasant, voice. 

He presses his lips against hers, painting her mind with the most exquisite colors of bliss. “Then give me a kiss,” he said, pulling away from her lips. She advances towards him, as he shuts his dazzling brown doe eyes. Her soft lips touch his warm, rugged skin at the left cheek. His eyes slowly opened as her lips parted from his skin.. 

His deep, wet eyes reflected the love that his heart felt for her, delineating him being reborn with her touch. He utters the words, “I love you. . . A lot,” and rescues her right back.
