"Sidd are you okay this the third time today" Bhavesh said running his hand over Siddharth's back who was vomiting. They were in the washroom, Siddharth kneeling over the toilet. Siddharth walked to the wash basin and splashed water on his face
"What did the doctor say?" Bhavesh asked standing besides him.
"Reaction of that tablet" he replied wiping his face.
"Stop taking that pill then" he stated.
"No thanks I don't wanna die due to lack of sleep" Siddharth snapped at Bhavesh and left the room before he could say anything else. Siddharth went through the corridor to his class, he was cursing the pill.
"Siddharth why are you late?" The professor asked when Siddharth entered the room.
"Sir I was in the washroom" Siddharth replied.
"Okay get in" Professor said and continued his lecture about genetics. Siddharth listened to it attentively, but he couldn't focus, his concentration was disrupted like usual.
"Don't you think something is really fishy" Asked Ritika from Jannat. They were in canteen, sitting together eating their food.
"What?" Asked Jannat, her mouth full from burger.
"See this is the third week bhai and Avneet are together and by this time he gets some other girl underneath him on the bed but this time..' she made a thoughtful face as she trailed off
"I told you Rits Avneet is not like that, she doesn't even accept that she is his girlfriend or what" Jannat stated .
"But Bhai has changed" Said Ritika as she frowned at Jannat. Jannat shrugged and dug into her burger.
"Your bhai is a jerk" Manjul spat taking a seat besides Ritika.
"What now?" Ritika groaned.
"He locked a fresher in the washroom " Manjul said with a horrified expression Ritika broke into fits of laughter
"He is the best" She said still giggling
"Will you guys ever mend your ways" Jannat asked angrily.
"Nope darlo" Rit's said with a hair flip.
"Here he comes " Manjul sighed disappointedly. As he watched him enter the canteen with Sass.
"Heard you locked a fresher" Ritika asked curiously when Siddharth settled on the table.
"Yeah but he freed him" Sidd jerked at Bhavesh who had just joined them. He was sitting besides Jannat, they kept giving each other googly eyes.
"Thank God" Jannat sighed in relief.
"Eat" Bhavesh sent Siddharth a glare who avoided his meal.
"No" Sidd replied.
"You just puked all the dinner and breakfast, you need food " Bhavesh sent another glare.
"I need nothing" Sidd said twitching his neck again.
"Eat idiot" Said Arishfa.
"Please no" Sidd requested, everyone on table shot him looks
"Fine I will just grab a juice" Sidd pouted and Ritika passed him Orange juice, he made faces of disgust as he gulped it down.
Avneet was walking toward the canteen with Anushka, they were talking and laughing enjoying themselves when it hit Avneet.
"I have to sit with that Hitler romeo again" Avneet whined. She slowed down her pace making Anushka slow down too, she was wasting time again.
"Nice name by the way" Anushka mocked
Suddenly a guy lost his control on his bike and bumped with Avneet. Fortunately she didn't get injured badly it was just a small cut on her thigh and sprain on her leg.
"Sorry sorry, I am so sorry I lost my control" the guy pleaded.
"It's okay" she smiled and dusted her jeans
Anushka helped her get up and took both of them in the nursing room . They got dressed the guy headed toward the canteen and Avneet toward the washroom.
This is the 3rd week here and I have a possessive aggressive lover, I have injured myself for the third time, and I have buried myself under studies and depression. Great achievements! Clap for me people! Clap for me!

I washed of the mud from my jeans and headed toward the canteen. Upon entering the canteen I found people huddled up around someone, they were muttering something. When they saw me they made way. I like it, but guess what Hitler Romeo was beating the poor guy who had an accident with me earlier.
"How dare you? you bastard" Siddharth cursed and with a punch over the boy's jaw. This guy is a maniac!
"I am sorry, It was a mistake" the guy flustered rubbing his jaw.
Siddharth was fuming with anger, he can now kill anyone in front of him and I meant it.
"I don't care if it was mistake or no, you hurt her and you will be punished for it!" he punched the guy's chest throwing him backwards, he collapsed over the table.
"Stop it Siddharth, he didn't do it on purpose" I stepped in blocking him when he stepped toward the guy.
"I don't care" he stated glaring at the guy
"What? mind your business all of you" Ritika ordered and everyone took away their attention away from us and back to their businesses.
"The principle has called you two" a guy preached, fear written on his face, Siddharth glared at he boy and he ran away
Siddharth sighed calming himself down, the he took my hand and dragged me possessively with him, I rolled my eyes but walked with him. We received numerous looks, he didn't care, I did! So I glared at the gossipers making them look away. We reached the office. He entered first, I followed him and he finally left my hand.
"Siddharth, what was all that?" the principle asked angrily, Siddharth kept silent
"We are glad to have you as our student but son you have to keep your aggression aside ,violence is not always the answer" the principle lectured him. My eyes widened at the choice of words. Glad to get him as a student? well I shouldn't judge but aren't rich kids spoiled and not a studious?
"Sorry sir" Said Siddharth sternly
"It's okay, you two can go now and Siddharth meet me after the college hours" the principle ordered he nodded we went out of the room, dragging me along of course. Damn boy I think I can walk on my own?
He kept looking straight ahead. Possessively clutching onto my hand I wanted to talk to him so I bucked up all the courage and dragged him to nearest supply closet.
"What was all the canteen drama for?" I started closing the door.
"His punishment, he injured you" he replied with a dark tone, expressionlessly.
"He didn't do it on purpose" I yelled throwing my hands in air.
"I don't care, I just know he hurt you and I will punish each and every one who hurts you" he said softly cupping my cheek, this guy is confusing, one moment he acts like a soft cuddly teddy bear, next moment he is this maniac. Sometimes his emotions are unreadable, sometimes he is an open book. This guy doesn't show the real him. He is hiding something deep, so deep that he himself can't reach it, somebody has to do it for him. He stared right into my eyes. His eyes were clouded, blank of any emotion.
"Then what about you? You hurt me the most" I said softly in almost a whisper.
"Then I deserve a punishment as well right?" he said, there was determination, craze, and extreme insanity in his eyes.
His eyes left mine he searched around, then his eyes fell on a pencil on table. He went there took the pencil, sharped it on nearby sharpener. I was confused.

"NO! STOP!" I screamed, but I was late. He had struck the pencil hard on his palm. It had badly penetrated through this hand, it's ends visible on both sides. I rushed towards him and took his hand in mine.
"Is this enough?" he asked wincing in pain
"Are you mad?" I yelled as I pulled the pencil out, he bit back another wince of pain. Blood dripping from his palm, I tore the hem of my shirt and wrapped it tightly around his palm stopping the blood supply. Then I dragged him to my dorm I first aided him. The nurse had left after dressing me so I had to clean his wound and dress it, until the nurse arrives to put the stitches. Throughout all that he kept staring at me blankly, his face had no expression.
"Why are you doing all this?" I said in a tired tone, as a tear escaped my eye. He used his thumb to wipe it away.
"Because I love you. I can bare any punishment for you, you can tease me, abuse me, harass me, but for love of God please don't leave me " he said desperately, he trapped me in his gaze, a tear leaked his eye. I was speechless, did he really mean it? I was getting goosebumps everywhere on my body.
I looked away, not wanting to lose myself in those damn hazel clouds. I excused myself to washroom, I cried a lot I didn't know how long I had spent in there. When I came out and witnessed a basket on my bed. There was a note over it.
So it's from Hitler Romeo, I rolled my eyes and sat on the bed with the basket on my lap, it was beautifully decorated. It had little fake flowers attached to it. I checked the contents of the basket. It had some fresh fruits, which included loads and loads of apricots, my favorite. But how did he know? That's a mystery. There was a box of dry nuts and a huge chocolate bar in there a note attached to it, I tore it and read '' I smiled reading the note over again. I turned the note there was another message on it 'Stop smiling and start eating the damn chocolate (;' it made me blush. I opened the chocolate and ate it.
Again as I said this guy is confusing. Sometimes he is the sweetest and sometimes I want to murder him.
Okay now enough of wasting my time. I really need to study I have exams tomorrow. God why?? I started studying taking the dry fruits Few minutes passed I was fully inside my note, when Ritika entered with full gang except Siddharth.
They already turned on the music and started talking out loud. My studies were being disturbed completely.
"I have exams" I complained.
"Ugh another bhai, go he is studying as well in his room" Said Ritika carelessly as she hooked her arms around Manjul, gross! I turned back to my books. I didn't want to go to his room, just then Lucky and Arishfa started a full on make out session and others were cheering completely ignoring my complain.
I took all my books and box of chocolate. I stuck the chocolate bar in my mouth I left to the boys dorms. I reached his room and knocked on his door with a my foot, because my hands were completely out of capacity. I heard some papers shuffling from in there then he opened the door he looked at me in disbelief.
"Angel?" he said with a confused expression. I didn't speak because my mouth was blocked by chocolate. I gestured him to remove the chocolate.
"Yeah, Ritika and all of them are there and I need a space to study" I sighed as he removed the chocolate and took a bite from it. I frowned at him for that.
"OH come in, you can sit on the couch I will study in the bed" he started to collect his stuffs once he put the chocolate down on the table.
"Nah, I am comfortable in the bed" I smiled as I dropped my books on the bed and possessively took the chocolate from the table. He chuckled at this. WOW! ANOTHER REAL CHUCKLE. We studied in silence. I went to washroom and when I came back I was starstruck to see his and his notes' condition.
He had gripped the steel scale tightly which led blood drops out from his closed fist. His notebook had ink all over it and it looked like he broke the nip of the pen. Each and every line of his book was underlined not one stroke but many with different colours few words rounded with ted pen. It seemed like he wanted to concentrate but he couldn't. But when I showed myself from behind the pillar he pretended to act normally.
"Err, if you don't mind can I stay here?" I Asked hesitantly, it was already night. Bhavesh was still not back, probably with Jannat. He looked at me, not believing his ears he nodded.
Pov ends
Siddharth's Pov
It was surreal for me, she was asking me if she could stay here. Not that I would mind but it's something new. Anyway I can't concentrate on these shitty notes, I used to study well and easily what's wrong with me?! Eh probably just sleep deprived.
We studied in silence again till late at night. I didn't know that I was again clutching on to the steel scale, DAMMIT. I put it aside, I knew I couldn't study any more I climbed into my bed. Angel was already sitting on floor, her books scattered. According to her she concentrated well on floor which is weird but who cares. I closed my eyes but sleep didn't come. I was waiting for her to fall asleep somewhere so I could use my pills but she had no plan to sleep any time soon. Great!
After a few minutes, she yawned and closed her books, she looked around at Bhavesh's bed, which was completely littered with books, then her eyes shifted to the couch which was also littered by books. If I was a gentleman I would give her my place, but why should I? She can sleep where ever she wants.
"Where do I sleep?" She finally turned to me, I smirked at her.
"With me" I said my smirked widened, she rolled her eyes as she climbed onto the bed with me. I did not expect her to actually sleep with me "Are you sure?" I said and raised my eyebrows at her.
"Well two things, couch and bed are completely filled with books and second thing I don't want to sleep on floor so, move and make space for me" She said as she took off her socks, I wouldn't do this for any girl but again, she was the different one so I made space, I watched her build a pillow wall. Which was useless, if I wanted to do something I would have when I had spiked her drink. But who trusts me here huh?!
She nervously laid down, I knew I wasn't going to sleep without my pills so I just stared at ceiling waiting for her to fall asleep so I could take my dose. I waited and waited until she finally fell asleep, I could hear her rhythmic breathing which was music to my ears, her strawberry aroma spread enough to reach my nose, it was so calming just listening to her breathing and her scent. I yawned and my eyes started to droop.
It was happening for first time in months, that I was actually feeling dizzy. I took the pills from the drawer not really trusting my sleep and kept it on my side table, just in case I still wanted to give it a go I wanted to try and fall asleep without them.
Avneet's POV
I woke up with the morning rays abusing my eyes, I got up, stretched my self rubbed my eyes and yawned with really wide mouth. My eyes we're still half way shut when I rested myself against the headboard. Then two things hit me. First, it was my exam. Second, I WAS IN SIDDHARTH'S ROOM!
Surprisingly the pillow wall was still there, I looked at him, he looked so cute and innocent when asleep. I mean I would date him if he wasn't a psychopath... What am I thinking?! Ew. I gagged.
I got up and went to washroom he was still asleep, I quickly freshened up and came out of the bathroom, he was up, yawning and scratching his head.
"Good morning" I hesitated but what's bad in greeting.
"Good morning" he replied with a smile . He looks cute when he is sleepy, other than that he keeps his grumpy face up. Suddenly my eyes fell on a little bottle on his side table I went to it and checked it, it was a sedative.
"What the hell?" I frowned.
"What?" he asked .
"What is this?" I took the bottle in my hands.
"Sleeping pills" he said casually.
"Yup but these are high dose of sedative! Almost drugs" I yelled.
"Yeah but I am prescribed" he replied.
""Yeah sure" I said sarcastically crossing my arms at him
"Wait" he went toward his drawer and took out page.
"See this" he handed me the page it was a prescription, signed by a doctor. Okay he is but...
"Your sleeping problems are that bad? " I asked hesitantly as I looked up from the prescription note
"Yeah" he sighed.
"You need a permanent solution this is not good for your health" I said. I was genuinely worried for him
"Will you be my permanent solution?" he asked, again trapping me in his gaze.
"Huh?" I said in a whispering voice .
"You will" He said as he came up to me and got hold of my shoulders. I didn't know what to say how am I going to be his solution? I watched his jaw clench and his dug his nails in my flesh it stung and I winced in pain. He shook his head roughly and left me there starstruck.
I hesitantly moved back collecting my stuff from there ran out of the room hiding the fact that I was blushing, but I was still curious, why and how was I going on be his solution.
POV Ends.
Half an hour left for lunchtime and branches who had exams came out with dull faces. Avneet along with Aashika sat down on an empty table in canteen. Aashika was already busy checking her answers. Avneet slammed the question paper on table.
"I hate you" she yelled at it, Aashika hushed her because she was busy. Avneet rolled her eyes and took out a book, she started to check the questions.
"Hey Angel" Sidd said snapping his fingers in front of her, he was sitting on table pushing Aashika's books away she hissed at him and left.
"Hi" she said dully as she roughly stuffed the books in her bag
"What happened?" he asked using his finger to lift her face so she could look at him.
"I screwed up my first exams here!" She whined
"Don't worry no one cares about first term exams" he consoled placing his hand on her cheek. Avneet would swat it away but she didn't because she wasn't in mood.
"But it matters to me" she complained as she closed her eyes "Leave it" she sighed and buried her head in her hands.
"I am going to take the lunch shall I bring it for you too?" he asked, he felt weird asking from a girl if he could get her something. He had never done anything like that. He used to get the girls get the things for him.
"Won't you wait for others?" Avneet Asked
"No . I mean I have to study as well" He shrugged but turned to her again "So?" He posed a question raising his eyebrows at her.
"Yeah for me to" she replied with a smile. He left for canteen with another smile. He was acting different today, no neck twitching no creepy smiles and everything seemed almost normal in him. Where was the Hitler Romeo and who was this?
He came back with two trays ,he sat placing them on the table.
"Thank you" I said as I took my tray, he had brought Pani Puri for me, so I quickly dug into it.
"Easy there, I'll get you more if you want" He said with a laugh
"Nah I'm good, how was your exam?" I asked
"It was good" He replied and zoned out, okay never mind he is not that normal. He snapped back to present and ate his food. We ate rest of the lunch in silence.
Once done, I was heading toward the library to study as I have no interest to study with him again. The library area mostly remains silent and you barely find anyone in that area. I was stepping inside when an arm held me strong and pulled me pressing me with a wall. I opened my eyes and saw him gazing at me. I groaned not him again
"Why is your hair open, Angel?"he asked expressionlessly
"Because i wanted to. Now move" I tried pushing him but he was stronger.
