RECAP = MEET WITH MS GRACE - SHIVAAY AND ANNIKA MEET UP AGAIN – HE SAYS SORRY –

ANNIKA'S POV

What followed up us was another eye lock of us. I just wish the moment freezes there. Me, in his arms, feeling safe and secured. Surroundings around me didn't matter to me at all at that moment. It was a perfect moment to be captured. All of this happened when I tripped over Shivaay's untied shoelace and when I was about to hit the ground as always, he just caught me. He had his hand on my waist and turned me over to look at him. His eyes was filled with concern over me. His ever so charming face had turned to a frown. Lines etched up on his face, making frowning lines. I had never seen any care for me in anyone. This was the first time, that too from him. All of these care filled faces and all are pretty new to me.

When we were too lost into each other, we didn't know that someone was watching us. That too, from a long time. So, I broke the eye lock and lifted my face to see who it was. Then I noticed. I regretted. But it was too late. They saw. My besties. Oh no. I'm gonna be hella teased up by them. I was too lost thinking on how I'm going to be teased by them that I didn't notice someone else was standing afar from them. Then I saw Shivaay's expression. Worry lines had etched his face. He was sweating and gulping down his saliva. I turned to where he was seeing. Oh hell no!!! It can't be. Ms Tiana. Worry lines etched my face as well. I turned around to see Shivaay while he did the same.

"Ms Tiana, it's not what you think it's like. Actually......" before me and Shivaay can continue to explain her what happened, she silenced up us by saying,

"I know what happened. Your friends told me. Now off you go to your class. You wouldn't want Ms Hadley to bring you down to my office later right???" she said and left off with a smile on her face.

What is she saying? Does that means, these idiots were here before itself but didn't even told us anything about it. Gosh, I want to kill them now. They're going to be teasing me forever now.

As Ms Tiana left I turned towards Shivaay and said "Shivaay, thanks for the lovely lunch. I quite enjoyed spending time with you. We should do this more often okay?" I said to him bringing a smile on his face.

"Yeah Annika, we should" he said smiling at me. Before we get lost in another of our eyelock, we heard coughing sounds. Turned around and looked. Yeah, my bffs. How can I forget that all these idiots are still here?

"Erm Okay. I have to go now. Ms Hadley wouldn't like anyone coming late to her class so I have to go. See ya later!" I said to Shivaay without any heart to leave the place. I waved my hand at him. He waved back but we both stood in the same place waving each other not moving an inch at all.

"HELLLO! EARTH TO ANIKA AND SHIVAAY! WE HAVE TO MAKE A MOVE NOW OR YOU WANT MS HADLEY TO COME HERE STRAIGHT AWAY???" said Jenna and Olivia in a unison. Oh god, I so wanted to hit them right at the face for spoiling my moment with him and making this look more awkward than before. To make it not look more awkward, I just waved him bye and ran up as fast as I can to my science class without turning to look at him knowing that if I turned to look at him, we would be stuck in another eye lock of ours.

"Thank god Ms Hadley haven't reach yet or not who knows we would have been in deep shit!" said Gab and Katelyn panting heavily. My class was on the fifth level of the building so it's obvious that we would be sweating when we come to the class. (TRUE STORY = MY CLASS, NOW, SINCE I'M IN YEAR 10, IT'S ON THE SIXTH FLOOR OF THE BUILDING, SO IT'S A TORTURE EVERYDAY)

"I totally agree with Gab and Katelyn" Nic said.

"LOVE IS IN THE AIR FOR SOMEONE I SEE HMMM..." Christina said in a playful tone and almost all of them in my class start to see me in a playful yet teasing manner. God. One word from your loud bffs mouth and that's it. Everyone gets to know. Can this get any more embarrassing of all?

"Oh damn, Annika. I'm sorry!" Christina said in a very puppy face manner and I can't help to forgive her already. Well, they're your best friends no matter what and they DO have all the rights to embarrass you to hell not even caring what others would say. That's what they are and I love them more than my handsome hunk-crush Shivaay. Anything can go wrong at any time between me and Shivaay and he can even leave me but your friends.... They are temporary and meant to be there no matter what. Damn, after thinking all this, Shivaay leaving me? Well he is gonna leave me in another 3 months or so.... But can love really blossom in this period of time? Only time can tell.

I was so zoned-out that I didn't realize Kent and Carl were dragging me to my seat because Ms Hadley was going to arrive in another 10 seconds.

"Hey, you're alright? What's wrong?" Hadley and Helly asked me. Damn. I'm so lucky to have these guys as my friends. What am I gonna do if we graduated. I can't even think about it. I'm not this worried even for my parents broken marriage but this just put all the pressure in me.

"Hey Annika, we're serious right now. Is everything fine? What happened?" Misha and Alice started to ask me. They were worried for me.

All of these thoughts started to cloud in my mind making me hard to breathe. I felt suffocated there but I don't know why. The last thing I heard was my friends calling out my name as I fell from the chair, hitting the ground as I shut my eyes closed.
