.Tiara's POV...
" chase please I don't want to go."
"Now what is wrong? Can you please elaborate." he said .
" you have no idea about my past."
" then say it, trust me the longer you keep it within yourself the longer it will take to move ahead."

I huffed and told him everything.
"Now there you go you know everything now so can Iplease not go."
"No you will go you have to. You have to show him that you are not weak. Show him what you are. Show him what my tia is." He said every word with the different determination.
I was beyond irritated so i just snapback and said,"fine now you know what? I'll just go back to him. Do hell with you."  All I could hear was laughter on the other side so I just hung the phone and texted, "I am damn serious about going back." While I wasn't going back to that asshole ever.

Five hours later..
God please save me. I was more than bored at this god damn party, it was a masquerade ball held by NDC, and today I was to be introduced, only three days are left for the finals and no one knows about me even being here and trust me I am thankful for it. Just as I was about to order a drink I felt a shadow behind, suddenly he said, "can I buy this beautiful lady in green a drink?". I would be called dumb if I wouldn't recognize the voice of my ex. Yes people it was Ashton.

"What if I say no." I said without turning back. From the corner of my eye I could see Shaan and Shreya coming my way so one thing was for sure that I had backup.

"Your voice uhmm, it sounds utterly familiar."

He said. At that moment all I wanted to do was kick him where the sun never shines, but refrained from doing so.

"Ohh, trust me my face is familiar too." I said as I turned around. His face dropped and paled visibly. I was crumbling down from inside but kept firm and hopefully it wasn't that noticeable.

"Aru." He said.

"The name's Tiara. Tiara Raichand." Well technically I am supposed to say it but the voice wasn't mine it came from behind.

"And if you would keep your hands off my girl. I guess you'll live." A smile formed on my lips because I exactly knew who it was. "Chase" I whispered and turned around. Well well well the view was drop dead ravishing, he was dresses up in a regular denim with white button down and a velvet royal blue blazer. I ran towards him and he opened his arms. After a while we pulled apart, "how are you here?" I asked.

"I couldn't let you in that assholes hand again now, could I?" He said, loud enough for me and Ashton to hear. I just laughed and hugged him back, "now can I have the dance with the most beautiful girl ever?" He asked.

I chuckled and yes we did have our dance, we were exactly in the center and all the couples gave us the area for that one dance. I twirled, swirled and laughed in the arms of the only guy who could make me smile when I was to cry, who I knew for sure would hold me ever, who I knew I loved.

After the party we left for home,

"So there is a surprise for you?" He said.

"Seriously?"

He nodded.

"What?"

"You are supposed to wait for it. Sweet heart."

He said with a wicked smirk .

"I so hate surprises." I pouted and we drove back home.
