Chapter Five

Arnav was still heart broken from the fight him and Khushi had, it had been 2 full weeks
since Arnav and Khushi didn't talk to each other, he honestly didn't know how to deal with such pain. As Khushi and him fell further apart, Pia came closer to him. But he still had Khushi written all over his heart and mind.

---

Arnav and Pia were walking down the hall way together to get to the canteen.

"Arnav! I'm so glad we're finally you know, at least being friends!" Pia was in joy.
"But soon enough...I know the great Arnav Singh Raizada will want me back." She whispered under her breath.

They both found a seat.

"Yeah Pia..Me too." He replied stiffly.
"I mean just cause of that little bit-"
"She's not a bitch. Don't call her that, don't take her name, or-" Arnav realized what he was doing, and he sat back down, careful not to hurt Pia.

"Its ok Arnav, I know the feeling of rejection." She was telling Arnav about their relationship and how it was nothing.

"I'm sorry Pia."
"Its alright Arnav! don't say sorry, I'll forgive you, you can get back with me, we can start over...I mean I still love you, you know." Pia was trying to win Arnav back.

"But Pia, I've done enough damage to our relationship, I don't think I'd wanna do more."
"Arnav, barosha rakho khud peh, I know you'll be amazing all over again. We'll have more good memories to cover up the bad ones baby!"
[Believe in your self!]

Arnav didn't know what to do, he felt Pia had given him more than Khushi, so he quietly said yes to Pia. Not knowing that was his biggest mistake he ever made.

"Khushi betiya, school ko challe jaao nah beta!"
[Khushi darling, go to school!]
"Nahi! Mujhe nahi jana hai, mei bhus yahan betke tv dikhungey, khana kaoongi, aur so jaoongi! Aur kuch nahi!"
[No! I don't want to go, I'll just sit here watch tv, eat and sleep, and nothing else!]
Khushi slammed the door.

She was still upset about what had happened two weeks ago, but she refused to give the slightest of thought about Arnav.

"Go to school sweetheart, just cause of few people doesn't mean you stop studying, I know you're on a sick leave, but that doesn't mean you don't go!" Khushi's dad tried to reason with her.

"FINE! I'LL GO!" She gave in a kept her hand bag ready for the next day.

---

Khushi got ready, and as usual waited for the bus, she sat on her seat and left Arnav's spot empty, every one questioned her why she was off for so long, she didn't want to answer, and she didn't.

Arnav was waiting for the bus too, he got sort of use to having to sit next to an empty seat, but was still hoping Khushi was there.

He stepped on to the bus, and he looked at his seat, happy to find her there.
She looked at him step on the bus, but looked away to the window.

Arnav started to walk through the aisle, and when he got to his seat, he sat down, tapped Khushi's shoulder and smiled at her, she turned around, gave a faint smile and looked away again.

Luckily the bus drove fast today, Arnav and Khushi did feel awkward, but eventually they both knew they'd get use to it.

They both stepped into the school at the same time.

"KHUSHI!!!" Her friends ran screaming towards her just to make her fall on the floor while hugging.

"Arnav baby!" Pia came running to jump into his arms just for him to catch her and turn her around.

---

Pia realized that Khushi realized, and just to make it worse, she kissed him full on the mouth just to make Khushi jealous.

Khushi fortunately didn't react, she always took Pia as a low life slut, she just sat there watching Pia kiss like a duck, and gave her the 'what the f-ck' look, Pia opened her eyes just to see Khushi bitching about her to her friends, she could hear them say; 

"LOL she kisses like a duck, and dude, Arnav's my bestfriend, so if she thinks, this is gonna make me jealous, she's f-cking stupid." and her friends agreed.

Khushi walked away, Arnav started to hug Pia, just so he could face Khushi, she was walking to lessons, and looked beautiful as ever, smiling and laughing.

Arnav felt wrong doing this with Pia.

"Pia. I'm sorry, this can't work."
"WHAT?! Arnav, its only been a day, I know I feel odd about it too! but eventually we both will get use to it! Don't forget US, just cause of her. Think about US before making a decision, seriously Arnav, think."

She walked away pretending to be sad and knew Arnav would walk after her.
He hugged her from behind and said;

"Ok baby fine, I won't leave US. Not now, not ever." 

He gave her a peck on the cheek and started to walk to lessons with Pia. This carried on a few more days, until Khushi did start to get jealous of Pia. But she made sure jealousy didn't take control of her.

Khushi went into the canteen, with her food, slipped on some water. She was scared to death that she might just crack her skull open, but Arnav was there, he was always there to catch her, they both stared into each other eyes for while, until they were cut off by a scream, they turned around to see Pia covered in Khushi's food.

"YOU LITTLE BITCH." Pia was furious. But this time Arnav defended Khushi.
