I was gonna update the chapter but then I was getting notifs of someone commenting on this book. The person was on 25th chapter so I waited for her to complete the chaps, with her comments i was knowing on which chapter she is.

So when I stopped getting notifs and saw her comments on last chapter I updated this one. As everyone should read from the same page yk

Now back to story

---

His dad doesn't even trust him, instead he trust the video more.

Ishan wanted to cry. Why is it all happening to him? First the video of him with Aditi leaking to his friends, well the video didn't even made any sense tbh but still. Then his father getting a call from unknown number.

Then him getting kidnapped and now again his father getting a fake video.

What if all of this was done by the same person?

But why would someone want to cause so much trouble in his life? Did he offended someone in any way?

Wait, the last video of Shubman giving him meds, it was of today. How did someone recorded them in the morning?

"Hey, what happened?" A sudden voice jolted Ishan. He squealed turning around to see somebody standing in all formal wear.

Ishan stared at him with confused eyes.

"Oh yeah, you won't remember me obviously. I am Naman." Naman told holding his hand out.

"Oh yeah, you are the one who saved me right?" Ishan asked while shaking his hand. Naman eagerly nodded his head making Ishan laugh slightly at his action.

His eyes suddenly going to his hand.

"How did you got hurt?" Ishan asked looking at his wrist.

"The kidnapper sliced it with knife while I was fighting with him." Naman replied while tugging at his coat hiding the bandage.

"Ohh I am so sorry because of me you got hurt." Ishan said still staring at his wrist.

"It's okay sir, and the scratch doesn't even hurt much." Naman shrugged.

"Scratch? But didn't he hit you with knife?" Ishan asked.

"I mean yeah, why are we talking about this? I should be asking about your health. How are you feeling?" Naman replied.

"I am fine" Ishan said still staring at his hand.

'What the heck am I even thinking? He saved me, Rohit bhai told me he saved me. Then why his scratch is reminding me of yesterday? I should seriously stop thinking like Shubi. Because of him I am doubting this gentleman.'

Ishan's train of thoughts stopped when he felt a hand on his waist.

"What are you doing?" Ishan asked stepping back.

"S-sorry there was a bug." Naman said pulling his hand back while feeling a bit flustered.

"Bug? Where?" Ishan furrowed his eyebrows checking his sides.

"It's gone now" Naman replied while grinning. Even his small actions are cute.

"Ohh okay, thank you" Ishan chirped.

"Where are you going?" Naman asked when he turned back.

"For breakfast" Ishan answered.

"Can I join you? I don't know anyone and eating alone would be a bummer." Naman smiled sheepishly.

"I am so sorry Naman but I can't. The security won't allow anyone in Indian cricket team's dining hall." Ishan looked at him apologetically.

"We can eat in the cafe downstairs?"

"I already started my breakfast and can't leave it." Ishan muttered.

"Oh"

"Yeah, I can go some other time though." Ishan quickly added seeing Naman's sullen face.

"Then dinner tomorrow? Please don't say no" Naman said.

"Sure" Ishan responded while biting his lip.

He can do one thing for him atleast, he owe him one afterall.

"Thank you so much" Naman said engulfing him in a hug.

Ishan wanted to pull away. Sensing his discomfort Naman pulled away within a few seconds.

"I am sorry, it was just you are my idol and t–"

"It's okay" Ishan muttered before going inside the dining hall.

"What were you doing?" Shubman asked him when he sat down.

"Got a call so went to pick it up." Ishan replied while picking up his fork.

"While hugging people in the corridor" Shubman scoffed continuing to eat his salad.

"Let him do what he wants, it's his age and honestly Ishan you bagged a hot guy." Surya winked.

Ishan choked on the piece of paneer he was eating.

"You are thinking wrong. He doesn't like Naman." Shubman said handing Ishan a glass of water.

"How would you know it?" Shreyas wiggled his eyebrows.

"Because he is my bestfriend and he is right I don't like Naman. I just met him in the corridor." Ishan replied after gulping down water.

"It's okay you will like him real soon. I have read in fanfics, first a hot rich CEO helps you and then slowly you start to meet him everywhere and boom you both fall in love" Rishabh grinned widely.

"Ngl, he looks hot and his face is also cute." Siraj wiggled his eyebrows at Ishan.

"I am not going to fall in love with him. And please stop joking." Ishan muttered.

"We are not kidding, we are actually very serious. He is such a nice guy and is so into you." Shreyas said.

"You are shipping me with a man?" Ishan looked at them.

"Yeah, aren't you gay?" Siraj hummed.

"You told everyone" Ishan looked at Siraj wide eyed.

"Why would miya tell us? You told us already." Rishabh said.

"No I did not?" Ishan whispered.

"I am a gay top, and I am gay but not for them" Hardik quoted.

"You all heard that?" Ishan whipped his head towards Hardik and everyone hummed.

"And the major fruity vibes you give also. It wasn't a surprise yk" Surya said chewing on his sandwich.

"Wait so according to this, it means Ishan didn't told he is gay to all of us and instead we told him he is gay" Rishabh smirked staring at Surya.

"No-"

"Yes bish i won, gimme those 7000" Rishabh said grinning widely.

"What the heck?" Ishan looked at them.

"What?" Rishabh shrugged.

"You guys bid on me?" Ishan furrowed his eyebrows.

"Yeah and nobody told me. I wanted to bid too" Virat said.

"Nobody told me also" Hardik said.

"This bet was just between me and Rishabh because we know Ishu baby since so long even before than you guys. " Surya said.

"I know him even before both of you." Hardik muttered.

"Sorry bhai next time I will include you also" Rishabh said.

"I also know Ishan since that long so I should be included too." Rohit said.

Ishan stared at everyone with his mouth agape. They all started fighting how they wanted to be included too.

"Are you guys for real?" Ishan huffed.

"What? Weren't you the one who said we should have some fun. We are doing that only." Rohit said.

"But not on this topic" Ishan whined.

"Okay then we should discuss about Ishan and Naman's wedding?" Shreyas chimed in.

"What the heck? Definitely no. Why are you guys after him?" Shubman scoffed.

"Shubman is just jealous coz that boy is a better version of Shubi." Rishabh snorted.

"I know right, he got dimples and his back side looks alike Shubman and damn he is hella rich CEO so definitely better than Shubi. He even did a heroic stunt by saving Ishu." Surya grinned.

"He is not a better version of Shubi and besides I don't like Naman." Ishan spoke.

"You will say it because he is your bestfriend." Hardik snorted.

"The bestfriend who molest you everynight. So Ishu stop taking his side choose your romeo you saviour your Naman." Rishabh chuckled.

"I am not choosing anyone. And you all please stop." Ishan said.

"You are not liking the way we are talking about Naman?" Virat asked.

"Yeah, you guys are going a bit overboard with this joke and I am not liking it." Ishan said.

"Okay we will talk about something else. Like where do you all want to go for tomorrow dinner? It would our last night here so let's do something fun?" Virat said.

"I won't be able to join you guys" Ishan murmured when they all started giving ideas of where they can go.

"Why?" Rohit asked. Shubman also hummed while sipping water.

"I have made plans with Naman for tomorrow's dinner." Ishan said.

Shubman spat water in Ishan's face.
