The Billionaire's Lost Lover

Chapter 7

Frozen at the spot I watched him disappear. What exactly did happen? Did Harry Williams just kiss me or Was I just hallucinating? I sighed deeply and prepared the coffee to check my senses, as my heart was hammering against my chest because of his kisses.

I had been a silent observer of Harry Williams, since the time he had come to do his masters last year and this year being my last year of college, we had shifted to the senior block, where I get to see him every day, as our classes are on the same floor.

I shook myself and after preparing the coffee, I limped and sat down on the sofa comfortably and relaxed.

I tried to enjoy the brew and distracted myself from all the emotional turmoil that was going on in my mind. But basically I was just punishing myself with a strong cup of coffee, which was getting on my nerves and I choked.

Just then Scarlett entered the flat and was horrified to find me choking and immediately grabbed a cup of water and gave it to me.

I was so grateful to her, as I gulped the water down my throat.

Scarlett was observing me very carefully and then she asked me.

"Are you all right? what were you drinking without me Ivy?" And grinned wickedly.

I picked up the cup and smiled at her gesturing her to drink it.

I usually make awesome coffee but today was exceptional and I was smiling wickedly as Scarlett drank it.

"Aughhhhhhhhh !" She exclaimed hysterically before running to the basin to throw it up.

I was still giggling when she came back.

"Are you nuts? How can you prepare a poison like that?" She shook her head and took a chilled beer from the fridge and gulped it down her throat.

I looked at her lovingly as Scarlett looked so adorable when she gets annoyed, her cheeks go all pinkish and I felt like kissing her cheeks.

God, what's wrong with me ! I exclaimed and closed my eyes and shook my head. I am still thinking about kissing, Harry Williams you are driving me crazy.

"Ivy, what's wrong? Why are you acting so weird today?" Scarlett asked with concern.

I knew there was no point hiding it from her, so

I took my pad and wrote everything that had happened that day and gave it to her.

She was so curious that she snatched the pad away.

After sometime.......

"Holy shit! She exclaimed loudly. "You mean to say Harry Williams was here. Girl, you are one lucky idiota and you are asking me what should you do." She looked at me for time, as I was looking at her helplessly.

"Weren't you always giving him those secret looks and always checking him out on the field." She asked me flatly.

I nodded shyly, as I was definitely into him since the time I bumped into him at the library. But he did not even notice me.

My book fell and he had picked it up and given it to me and had smiled very warmly, that's the day I gave away my heart to him.

I know that sounds so stupid but I was and I am crazy about him but I knew that the good-looking god would never look at a nerd like me. So, I just kept myself happy by looking at him from distance.

"Oh Ivy !" Scarlett exclaimed and sat beside me hugging me tightly.

"It doesn't matter why he is doing it but the way you narrated it, I am pretty sure he is interested in you so don't think too much and go with the flow," Scarlett said softly.

But I was scared. I don't know why but I had a feeling that he was just being nice to me but what about the kiss.

I got up and scribbled again and gave it to Scarlett.

"What you want me to come along with you for your physiotherapy every day along with Harry. You must be mad. As much as I would love to accompany you, I don't want to be a scapegoat in between both of you." She said flatly after reading the sentence.

But I was not sure about my mental stability around Williams, so looked at Scarlett with pleading eyes.

"Owe, you sure know how to get what you want." finally Scarlett agreed and I gave a sigh of relief as Harry Williams was in danger and not to mention Sylvia Fisk, his current love interest. Even if he was just playing around with me I would not want any emotional heartbreak. I needed to protect myself.

So as planned, Scarlett came back from her classes on time to take me to the doc and Harry was there on time.

When he saw Scarlett with me he did not react much but his lips twitched and he smiled at Scarlett very politely. But after a few seconds, he was looking very dangerously at me, I looked away like a terrified little rabbit. He was wearing a blue Polo shirt and jeans and looked so breathtakingly handsome that I had to drag my eyes away from him.

The next few days went on just like that with Scarlett tagging along with me every day but now I was much better and could walk properly, so the doctor had decided to take it for another day and wrap it up, as I had to get back for my classes. And I did not want to worry my family about it.

As it happened that Scarlett was unable to come that day and when he saw me walking alone, he smiled.

But as soon as I got inside the car he said slyly. "What happened? You forgot to bring your bodyguard today."
