Ella's POV.

I smiled sheepishly at them as they both were glaring at me right now.

"Guys! Come on! I was gonna tell you that, " I said for the tenth time and was continuously trying to gain their forgiveness but they both were just too mad at me.

"I thought... I thought, El! We were sisters. Sister's share not hide! You didn't tell us? Us! How could you... Tsk... Tsk... Tsk..."

There she's again going with her emotional blackmailing.

"Sara! Jess! Come on! Forgive this poor girl already."

"Nope," Sara said at once.

"Pretty please!"

"Nah! Nah! Nope! You committed a crime, girl!!!" Jess said making me laugh but I controlled it.

A crime? I just committed a crime? How come I didn't notice!

"Then, please! Please police officer! Pardon this criminal. I swear I won't repeat this crime again." I didn't miss the slight smile that appeared on her lips but was instantly gone.

Uh! Progress!

"Nope." She rolled her eyes.

Take that back! No progress! Urgh!

Now what! She's not letting it go. What should I do! I pondered my mind to think of a plan.

Idea!

"Jess! Sara! My sweet sweet, loving friends. My soul sisters. My two besties..." I started by buttering them and fawning about them, giving them my sweet, loving smile.

"What if I give you a whole week of whatever you wanna eat and the bill is on me."

And yup! My brilliant idea was to bribe them with food.

Seriously El! What a brilliant idea! Bravo! Clapping!

I ignored my sarcastic conscience and looked at Jessica and Sara hoping they would forgive this girl.

"Oh my god! Ella! Are you trying to bribe us? How could you!" Jessica shook her head in shame and I could see Sara smiling but her smile vanished as soon as Jess nudged her with her elbow.

They were torturing me... It was so unfair!

"Uh! Come on, guys!" I frowned.

They were now getting on my nerves. I didn't do anything unforgivable. It was not like I ran away with him and didn't tell them or had secretly married him. Gosh! Why they were overreacting?

"Please!!!! Please! Please!" I gave them my cute innocent puppy eyes with my lips in a pout.

You gotta forgive me this time!

"Uh fine. I forgive you El!"

Yes!

Sara smiled and I thanked her. But for stubborn headed Jess, she was still giving me her rolling eyes.

"Come on, drama queen! Stop acting frustrated! It doesn't suit you." Sara laughed making me laugh too.

"Shut up!" Jess pouted, making us laugh harder and it just made her madder.

"Jess! Let go!" Sara clasped her hands and helped me to melt down this rage of the ice queen.

"Nope!"

Urgh! Stubborn!

"Jess-"

"Come on, Jess! OK fine! You can have your revenge. You can have Ella's first baby." Sara grinned cutting my sentence and made us both stared at her.

First baby? What the! Was she a Rumpeltilskin now? Or was I girl closed in a straws room?

"Shut up!" Jess knocked her head as she groaned in pain. A chuckle escaped my lips.

"Okay! Mama!" Sara stick out her tongue and then we all burst in laughter.

"You both are crazy!" Jess laughed as we enveloped in a group hug.

"Correction! We all are crazy." I chuckled as they agreed.

Yup! Three crazy besties! I love these sole sisters!

"Hey, El! By the way, you are still paying for our whole next week's meal." Jessica grinned.

"What? But... Oh no! Offer just expired!" I held my hand up giving them a no.

"Nah! We ain't gonna listen to anything." Sara and Jessica grinned and then high fived.

"But-" I protested but they shushed me.

"It's a punishment, baby!" They laughed and I swear it was a witch's laugh. I could also imagine those black cloaks on their shoulders with pointed black hats on their head as they both laughing their evil laugh with that magical broom in their hand and had a crooked long nose.

No! Cut that nose part! They'll look hell funny!

"El! Hello!" Sara snapped her fingers and I zoned back from my crazy witch's besties.

"Yeah! I am back!" I smiled.

"What were you thinking?"

"Ah... Nothing!" Just imagining my witch besties.

I gave them a big smile and hooping their arms in mine, we went to take our next class.

******

I was lying on my bed and grinning like an idiot for almost one hour and now my jaws were hurting, and it was all Xaiden's fault. His handsome face, his cute, heart-twisting remarks, his silver-moon eyes, his tantalizing smile.

It just won't leave my mind. Whenever I would close my eyes, his image will be there and unknowingly a smile would creep on my face. I couldn't seem to forget how he was jealous and just by talking to my father.

And then his words, 'you look cute when you blush.' did give me a heart attack back then.

I rolled on my bed and hugged my big teddy bear as I could feel my cheeks warming up.

It was insane how my cheeks would heat up and just by remembering him. How my heart would skip a beat whenever he would give me a slight smile. How I could see the whole world in his eyes and his mere existence made me feel wanted and it made me feel special, unique.

Love!

I think that's called being in love. I think that's how a person feels when he falls for someone, when someone captures his heart. When you are surrounded by thousands of people but in between them, there is that special one. Even if you are lost, you knew deep down you will find him. You trust him and want him to be just yours.

Love! It's crazy, sweet, dramatic and surprising. It's beautiful and cunning.

I think I had fallen in love with this love word and he made me fall for it. Finally, I had known how beautiful it feels to be in love.

I didn't know how fastly I fell in love with him. But I knew I do love him.

Although I had these darkest secrets. Although my presence was a dark void, and I was scared of my presence, and of my father's sins but still I wasn't stepping back. I knew, it won't be much lesser than hell and it did give me cold chills, but this overwhelmed feeling had just taken over. This loving feeling had made me strong, somehow.

I don't know if the decision I took was a good one or a bad one. I don't know if this decision of mine would end me up me in hell or would I even end up dying, but I was sure I wouldn't regret it. This love had made me strong. He made me strong and it was just the start of our something.

I hope it keeps on strengthening me. I hope he would always be my reason or else I don't know how will I survive...
