Beneath Guarded Hearts - 21

Sul6an

After I left, I was stuck in puzzlement as I thought over why 3bdulla would beat Rashood. And so brutally. What did he feel for her? And how strong was it?

"Good evening madam, would you like something to drink?"

I smiled.

Me: "Yes! I'd like a coke pleease :D"

Hostess: "I'll be right on it ;)"

Me: "Thank you!"

I love travelling. Awal shay, there's the humidity and the heat that's MELTING us in Dubai that I get to leave behind. Thani shay, I get to dress up and mix and match my clothes and shailas and accessories! Thalith shay, I love waving and smiling at random people. Rabi3 shay, I get to see a lot of greenery and different lands and places! W a5er shay, I feel like it's my escape. Only this summer, the thing I was hoping to escape from came with me.

I glanced quickly at where he was sitting, and saw that he was fighting with the mini tv in front of him.

At first I narrowed my eyes and then I saw that he was very serious! I couldn’t help but snicker, but I accidentally did it loudly! My embarrassing laugh distracted his busy gaze and he suddenly turned to me. I flipped my head back and pretended that I was laughing at the 'supposed' movie I was watching.

My BB suddenly vibrated and I gasped when I realized I forgot to close it! Okaay we're already in mid-air fa whatever a7eena ma bay2ather 3ala el 6yara :p I opened it to see who on earth would be talking to me right now when my status said 'On the airplane'.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw his name.

Yes, I had his number saved. And yes, it's under his name. I couldn't help it! Like Noufyy said, I had a pointless obsession. I'm a hopeless cause, apparently. Even after everything, I couldn't bring myself to delete him. I'd find myself staring at his contact profile, as mirages of him would show up in front of my eyes. How much I'd missed him. After so many inner battles, I'd allowed myself to admit it at least to my heart. But no one else. No one.

I opened the text message with the trembling tips of my fingers.

-You know you don't have headphones on, right? :p So why don't you just tell me what you found so hilarious? ;)

Ugghh. Ana 3'abeya. I'm bad at improvising on the spot. Where did he get my number? Well, if I managed to get his number, he would most definitely be able to get mine. A7eena what should I say? Let's just be blunt w agoola fel wayh. Batma95ar 3alaih shwaya :p

To: 3bady (Mobile)

Because you were having a VERY serious fight... with your tv xDD ! Are you always aggressive with electronics?

From: 3bady (Mobile)

Owww you saw that? X.x

To: 3bady (Mobile)

Duude I think EVERYONE did and if they didn't see you they most definitely heard you ! XD

From: 3bady (Mobile)

Chub may6'a7ek -,- It's not working fi6'al 3anh!

To: 3bady (Mobile)

Call the hostess she'll reset it for you :p What is it with guys and asking for help? You don't know EVERYTHING you know.

From: 3bady (Mobile)

Of course we do :D That's why we rule the world ;)

To: 3bady (Mobile)

So arrogant -,-

From: 3bady (Mobile)

Besides, I hate the hostess. She's very annoying kil mara etee 3ndy tgooly, Do you need something sir? In a VERY annoying perky voice ugghh malat 3a wayihha tnarfizz!

Hahahhaha xD She was probably finding excuses just to approach him. One couldn't blame her; he looked really hot today. And no, he wasn't wearing Polo like locals usually do :p Kan labis plain red Burberry shirt with the Burberry print on the collar. It contrasted beautifully with his tanned skin, and he looked like a seductive prince who had a dark side and would abduct a princess just for the fun of it. I'll bet that princess would be more than happy to comply for a chance to be carried in his arms. His shirt was partly open at the top, revealing glimpses of his chest, especially when he bent to pick up something. And to add to the hotness, it was custom fit, fa his muscles bulged out of the sleeves and the imprints of his abs would vaguely show when he stretched. *drool* Snap out of it asmaa! 5aaibh how do I know all of these details? I shouldn't be paying so much attention to him. It was done unconsciously, I swear!

To: 3bady (Mobile)

Well then, we should stop texting if you want to avoid her :p

From: 3bady (Mobile)

Laa 3adee ma batza3ilnee ;)

I turned my head towards his seat and lifted a brow.

To: 3bady (Mobile)

W laish batiz3al inshalla?

From: 3bady (Mobile)

Because she would be depriving me of you, of course :)

When I glanced at him, he gave me a wink.

I rolled my eyes dramatically, but my blush gave me away.

To: 3bady (Mobile)

Gtg, I wanna watch Harry Potter 7 part 1

From: 3bady (Mobile)

Baaal jdeem elain al7eena ma shfteeh? :o

To: 3bady (Mobile)

Well excuse me, in case you forgot, I'm a girl. W bnt nass. I can't go to the cinema whenever I want and watch whatever I want. E7mid rabik ink walad -,-

From: 3bady (Mobile)

Al7emdilla wel shukr :D

To: 3bady (Mobile)

Uggh you're annoying go away :p

From: 3bady (Mobile)

Ok yalla bye :D I'll be watching over you when you sleep ;*

As much as I knew how wrong this was, I couldn't ignore the pang of pleasure I felt deep inside me. I didn't answer the text, but I whispered 4 words under my breath as my eyelids started to close, drifting me off into a world where there were no rules, where 3bdulla and me could be together. For eternity.

To be continued...
