There are some people who could hear speak a thousands words and still not understand you. And there are others who will understand you without speaking a single word. - Unknown

Jasmeet's POV:

His question totally caught me off guard and I stared into his eyes searching for the truth behind his words; and if he was being straightforward about this statement. The sincerity in them and the way he looked at me made my knees go weak, making them wobble, and I nearly fell on the floor if it were not for Enzo, who chuckled while catching me pulling me close to him, and whispered into my ear softly: "Jasmeet, am I so exciting? That you faint at the sight of me? Moreover, you said that you are the one who makes me dizzy. I sincerely doubt that! I am the only one who does not blush so much!" As soon as these words left his lips, I smacked him on the back of his head, and pouted at the teasing tone in his voice. Out of the sudden the seriousness was gone, which was a result of the question posed by him; and a certain playfulness existed between the two of us which was relieved me as this topic was pretty important.

It was clear to me that I did not want to be with someone who was not able to joke around and I could see Enzo faking being hurt, and told me in a voice laced with pain: "Jassy, ouch, this hurt! I am really sad now"" Before I could stop myself my hand stroked the part of his head, which I smacked, which earned me a appreciative smile from him. The way his whole face lit up, was truly something amazing and I fell once more in love with him. Did I finally admit to myself that I was falling for Enzo Morales. It occurred to me that I was not honest with myself, however, in this moment I knew that I was a goner, as he was everything I ever wanted.
"Yes, I would like to be!" I spoke softly, barely audible, surprising me with this answer. I was aware that this date was an excuse for him to ask me properly out. At home, it was not clear to me if I could be with him in this official manner, however, him standin gin front of me made everything cristal clear to me.

Pretending not to have hear the soft words from my lips, he inquired, in a teasing tone: "What did you say, Jassy? I did not catch you! You spoke too softly!" I shot him a sceptical glance which he just shrugged off with a nod of his head. Casting one last look at him, I started to speak, making sure that my tone was audible and understandable: "Enzo Morales, I would love to be your girlfriend. I know that I do not know you so well, but I would love to find it out, and I would love to make our relationship official. You are the first one to notice me for who I am, and I fell so lucky that you stood up for me that day!"

Once I completed my speech, a look of disbelief appeared on Enzo's face and he asked me, insecurity laced within his voice: "Oh really, Jasmeet? I can't believe it. You make to the happiest guy alive!" Blushing visibly, I circled my arms around his waist and pulled him closer to me. A certain look made its way on his gaze and I knew that my behaviour intrigued him, he pulled me closer as well, and soon we were hugging. This hug was nothing like before, as it was clear what we were feeling for each other. In this gesture, so much more was vowen into and I got lost in his warm hug. From this moment, I knew that Enzo Morales was my first love and nothing could change this fact.

Enzo's POV:

The manner in which Jasmeet responded to my questions, impressed me so much and I felt so incredible lucky that I found her and that I listened ot my feelings instead of following the words of Shawn. It became evident to me that I truly fell for her, the sweet moments we shared and the dinner date, in which I got to know her better, showed me that we were alike and there was a true connection existing between us. The hug she gave me, was so different from the previous ones, this one was full of confidence and security. The dress she wore today was breathtaking in combination with her long hair opened and reaching until the lower part of her back, and I choked on my own spit the first time I saw her emerging from her house.

There was no kiss needed as this hug was much more intimate. I do not know how long we stood in this embrace, basking in One's Company. I inhaled her scent, which earned me a chuckle from her, and I pulled her even closer if this was possible. When we broke apart, I kissed her forehead, as I did on our last date and I could not believe how lucky I was, my feelings being reciprocated. We sat down once more and she took my hand, bringing it closer to her lips and placed a soft kiss on it. This small motion made my heart beat faster and I could feel my cheeks heating up, which Jasmeet noticed: "Well who is now the fast blusher!"

Her teasing tone made me chuckle and I could not believe that she could beat me with my own weapons. Beneath the layers of being the perfect student, there was a certain boldness and daringness, which I looked forward to explore more in the coming months. From the corner of my eye, I glanced at her, and she raised her eyebrows, asking me what was on my mind. Taking her hands, intertwining my fingers with hers, I told her: "Jassy, you cannot imagine how happy I am right now. You make me the happiest guy alive!" A blush appeared on her cheeks which made me chuckle and we sat in silence, enjoying each other's company.

The sunset in combination with the girl I adored sitting next to me, was incredible romantic. It seemed as if my life was finally complete with the Indian beauty next to me, who managed to acceralate my hearbeat and made me feel the luckiest guy alive. Out of the sudden, she leaned her head into my shoulders, which made me smile and I leaned into her. "You know, we are so lucky to have found each other!" she told me absentmindedly. I pulled my head off her shoulders and gave her questioning look, to which she responded instantly: "It is so hard to find love or even someone to share his or her happiness and here we are, so happy in each other's company. I really doubted Samara's word that I would find love too. It just seemed as something untouchable and unapproachable. And I was never noticed by any boy, so my thoughts were even intensified!" Once I completed speaking, Enzo shot me a warm look and squizzed my hand, answering with a smooth and soft voice which let my heart beat faster: "No, I am lucky. It was clear to me that you would find love for sure. I mean, look at you. You are stunning and breathtaking. All the boys secretly adored you and your intelligence, however, because of Shawn, no one dared to approach you as you know how he is when he is angry. However, I could not stand by watching you suffer when Nathalie attacked you!" His words surprised me as they were definitely not what I expected. Always I had assumed to be invisible and now my thoughts prove themselves to be wrong. I raised my eyebrows and teased him with a soft smile on my lips: "So Enzo, you also were a secret admirer right?" Instantly he lowered his gaze, blushing as well and I just chuckled.

Shawn's POV:

The last days were really boring as nothing special happened. I did my best to avoid Jasmeet and Enzo as if they were the plague. It just brought up too much feelings and I did not want to indulge in feelings. Aiden and I became really closer over the last few days and I was so happy that he changed to my school; as the friendship with him made me happy and feel at ease. There had been no incident or confrontation as well with Jasmeet or Enzo. It was official now, that the two of them were dating. This news pained me and tore my heart apart but I decided to bury all my feelings beneath layers of hostility and hatefulness. I had to shut off my feelings in order to maintain my sanity and mental stability. Gracies words still were on my mind, questioning me if they could have been something between us or if it was just wishful thinking of mine.

When they entered the school hand in hand on Thursday, it became evident that they were not hiding their relationship anymore which surprised me immensely. Aiden shot me consoling gaze as he was aware how much this affected me. Everyone seemed surprised by this as if they did not expect them to be so brave and start to date. There was much gossip travelling from one eager mouth to the next, and many rumors were floating around. One of those was for example, that the play was just an excuse for them to spend time together or that they had been secretly dating for ages. They seemed so genuinely happy with each other, which angered me even more. As if it was not enough that I lost my best friend and the girl I adored, they had to rub salt into my wound. Gracie and Aiden were there for me, which helped me very much. Broken heart, Gracie examined the condition I was currently in.

Upon hearing this, I just scoffed and told her that this was not true as it was hard for me to admit this to myself. However, on the weekend, when everything was peaceful and I had time to think, I realized how right my sister was. It felt as if something was being ripped apart and I had no idea how to fix my torn heart. It was multiplied by the thought that the wedding of Jasmeet's sister was approaching and I planned to attend it with Aiden. This lessened my emotional turmoil as If love was like this, I did not want to fall in love any more. It just brought pain and anguish to a person, and there was no beauty about the topic which inspired poets to write so much about it. I could not fathom back then, that I was not destined to experience only painful love and that I would find beauty in this sentiment, which was fated to make me the most happiest man alive.

On the day of the wedding, I put on my finest suit on which I could lay my hands on. My hands I styled casually and let it fall naturally. A honk pulled me out my thoughts and I left my room in a paced manner, putting on my fine shoes and leaving my house. Aiden sat in his car, styled from head to toe in an elegant fashion, which was unusual for him as he preferred casual wear. The address which Jasmeet sent me, was very far from my place, so it took us a long time to reach the venue where the wedding was going to happen. The traffic was also insane, which prolonged our drive.

Once we arrived at the location, we immediately saw the beautifully decorated entrance and we exchanged an appreacitive glance with each other. The valet greeted us with a smile and parked the car, Aiden and I entered the venue and instantly we heard the typical indian beats. On the main table, I could see a beautiful women, whom I assumed to be Jasmeet's sister and beside her newly-wed husband. Next to her sat Jasmeet, and the sight of her instantaneously made my heart beat faster. She looked so beautiful and I could not help but stare at her; Aiden noticed this and nudged me into the shoulder to bring me brack from my trance. Suddenly she stood up and walked towards us with a smile on her lips. "Oh wow you came! I almost thought you were not going to show!" she told us, relief evident in her voice. Aiden laughed quietly and explained to her: "Well, Jasmeet, the traffic was really bad, so this is the reason why we are late!"

Jasmeet's POV:

Once the ceremony (anand karaj) in the Gurdwara (Sikh Temple) was completed, everyone shouted out congratulations to the newly-wedded couple and offered their good wishes. It was a beautiful ceremony and my sister looked absolutely stunning in her wedding lehnga choli. The last days passed in a blurr, as so many traditional rituals took place. Everyday many relatives were over, offered the blessings to the bride-to-be and the haldi ceremony was also completed, in which the bride had to put on a paste which made her skin glow and shine. The presence of my best friend was also a relief as She appeared royally and like a queen, her husband impressed as well with his typical Punjabi male suit. When would the day come for my wedding? I thought on this day, on which my sister promised to spend her life with an amazing man, who did not hesitate to fulfil each and every wish of my sister.

However, I was lucky as well, with Enzo by my side who was a dream come true. Since the moment we admitted to each other what he felt, we felt no fear to show our relationship. in school many students looked at us in disbelief and many rumors flowed around; however we did not pay any heed to those as we were perfectly with each other. Aryan also returned to school and he also told me that his sceptism vanished into thin air, as Enzo did not treat me any differently in school. The words of Shawn were completely forgotten as he avoided me at all cost, which was a relief to me.

Enzo who had joined the ceremony flashed me shy smile, which made me blush immediately. My cousins who sat beside me, just chuckled at my reaction. I was really happy that my boyfriend was so open-minded and had offered to come along to witness the holy matrimony of my sister. As soon as the traditional rituals were done and the songs were sung, my sister and I got into the car, which was going to bring us to the location where the reception happened. Due to our wealth, we were able to afford one of the finest location available for weddings.

My family took a seat on the appointed head table and we waited for the guests to arrive. As the relationship with Enzo was still new, he sat with my cousins who seemed to torture him with questions. I just chuckled at their behaviour but I was also thankful that my relatives cared so much about me, that they wanted to know if his intentions were honourable or not. Out of the sudden, I had the feeling that someone stared at me, and I looked up to meet Shawn's eyes. I scanned his appearance and I had to admit that he looked great in his tuxedo. My heart skipped a beat and I scolded myself as I could not feel this way, with my boyfriend only a few meters apart. I stood up and greeted them with a smile: "Oh wow you came! I almost thought you were not going to show!" I could not hide my evident relief, I really looked forward to meet them here. Two weeks ago I would have slapped someone if they told me that they would be at my sister's wedding. Shawn seemed absent-minded, so Aiden answered for him, sounding happy that he finally arrived: "Well, Jasmeet, the traffic was really bad, so this is the reason why we are late!" I nodded at his response, I knew how insane the traffic could be in London and I motioned them to take a seat and to indulge in the indian food. Both of them gave me a smile and I walked back to sit beside my sister, who instantly asked me:"Who are these two boys? Is one of them Shawn?"

Her tone showed her evident curiosity, which brought a smile to Karan as he was aware how nosy she could be. "Let me guess, the one with the straight hair, is Shawn! It is a pity that he is an idiot, otherwise he would have been cute!" she guessed in a sly tone. The man next to her scoffed in fake anger and she immediately consoled him by planting a chaste kiss on his cheeks. All the elders started to gush and like a traditional bride she blushed, which made them even laugh harder. I joined them as this scene was really funny, the bride and the groom already fighting. Out of the sudden, I felt that someone stared at me and I raised my gaze, only to meet Shawn who observed me with a look, which I could not decipher.

Once more I acknowledged that he looked very handsome, and I got lost into the sea of his deep brown eyes. So much was in this simple exchange of glances, and I could feel my heartrate increase, even he appeared to be flustered and affected by this simple gesture. It was as if the whole word disappeared and we were the only one in the room. What was happening to me, I asked myself, and why was I drawn to this particular boy? It became clear to me that there was definitely something, which tied the lives of us together. Where was this connection going and why could I not be happy with Enzo, simply forgetting the fact that there was the potential of more between the two of us.
