Chapter 6 [The Prince Charming]
I was still wondering about how he got to know my name when his husky voice rang inside my ears again.
"Are you okay?"
Strong arms gripped my shoulders, pulling me up swiftly.
"You're bleeding!"
His worried, voice reached my ears and almost as if just now realising the way my forehead was hurting from where I'd probably nicked it on the side of the table on my way down to meet the floor, I whimpered.
Quickly, he guided me towards a plush chair and gently pushed me onto it.
"Sit here while I grab the first aid kit."
Before I could formulate a reply, he was gone, and was back with a first aid kit just as quickly, his scent- a heady mix of something dark and purely masculine assaulting my senses in the most delicious way possible as he stood in front of me, a cotton ball coated with some sort of an antiseptic at the ready.
"This is gonna hurt a little, okay?"
He told me softly and I nodded again, bracing myself for the inevitable sting.
I hissed a little, cringing back but he held me in place with a gentle hand on my chin which sent shivers up my spine in a way I'd never felt before, making me sit up straight in the padded chair. I was so caught up in what his touch was making me feel that I didn't even flinch when he put a small bandage to the cut.
"There, all good now."
He murmured, giving me the sweetest of smiles I'd ever seen on a man, the kind that made you smile like a love sick puppy just by looking at it and that was exactly what I did.
I smiled up at his handsome face. "Thank you, Mr Khan."
"Oh you can just call me Sahir, Isabell." He told me.
My brow furrowed as I realised, yet again, that he already knew what my name was. Frowning up at him, I asked, "How do you know what my name is?"
His eyes widened slightly at my question and he busied himself with rearranging the first aid kit he'd brought. A few beats passed before he nodded at my chest, "It's written on your ID card, Isabell."
I looked down at the ID card resting snugly on my chest, frowning as I did so. He'd called me by my name when I'd fallen too. He couldn't have possibly seen my ID card then. Buying his lie for what it was for the time being, I shrugged at him, "Okay."
He looked at me again, his lips pulled into an almost fond smile, almost as if he knew that I knew he was lying but was letting it go. He cleared his throat, "So, what are you doing here? I clearly don't remember leaving a beautiful girl here before going out."
It took me a moment to realise that he'd called me beautiful and I blushed right up to the tips of my ears as I tucked a loose strand of hair behind my ear.
And another to realise that he'd asked me a question.
What was I doing here again?
Right. I'd come to thank him for saving me plus asking him about why he instructed that lady to not disclose the fact that he took me out of that storeroom.
But now that I was actually here, I couldn't quite understand what to say. Awkwardly, I began, "Um, well, yesterday you saved me from that guy, you know, who was trying to misbehave with me. I wanted to thank you for helping me. It was really nice of you to do that. I don't know what I'd have done had you not been there. You're a man of such a huge stature and to help an ordinary girl like me, it was really great and...."
I knew I was rambling but I couldn't bring myself to stop. There was something about him that made me nervous, not in a bad way, but nervous all the same.
"Isabell." He put a hand on my shoulder, chuckling a little.
"It's okay, you don't have to thank me for anything. Anyone would've done the same had they been in my place."
He said with the sweetest smile any man could ever have.
"No, Sir. I owe you one. That guy could have done worse to me if it wasn't of you coming to help. I can't thank you enough. Not only for this but you even rescued me out of that storeroom, I..."
I was going to continue with my words when he interrupted.
"Wait a minute, what did you say?"
He asked while bending down a little till our eyes were in contact with each other.
" S.. S.. Sir, actually I.."
I tried to speak but I felt as if my brain lost the power to formulate words.
" Don't get nervous, I am not gonna eat you up, just tell me how you got to know that it was me, who took you out of that storeroom?''
He asked, with that charming smile still playing on his lips, his facial features are so magical that it feels as if I will loose my senses if I keep looking at him. In one word he is heavenly handsome.
" Isabell."
My name seemed to be more attractive as it trailed out of his mouth. The way he pronounced it was quite sexy.
" Hm? "
I asked, having a small smile on my lips as I saw him grinning widely.
" Won't you tell me?"
He said huskily as the distance between us lessened, his eyes having a tint of mischief as his hand rested on the arm rest and bent little more towards me. My heart did summersaults inside my chest as I heard him chuckle in way which was enough to give me goosebumps. It was HOT. PERIOD.
wait, what was I supposed to tell him by the way?! Damn! I forgot! What was he asking though?!
"Erm.. well.."
I struggled to form a sentence while rubbing my palms against each other, fuck, this is so embarrassing!
" Yes, tell me, how did you know?''
He asked and it rang inside my mind that I am gonna suppose to tell him about how I got to know that he was my saviour yesterday who rescued me out of that room when those bullies locked me up inside.
" Actually, I, I asked that lady, erm, I am sorry I really don't know her name, I just joined the school yesterday, I am new here, but I just know that she works in the front office of the school maybe. So, she was the first person I saw, after I woke up, while talking to me she by mistake mentioned your name, and then I convinced her to tell the truth, she wasn't willing to disclose your name! but Mr Khan, why did you instruct them to hide it from me?!"
Everything I Said came out in a jumbled way, I really don't know what I said! And what must be he thinking about me?! I can't even answer properly to his question! Ugh! That was Pathetic Sierra! His presence is making me utterly nervous! But at least, I asked him the question which is troubling me since yesterday. I can't wait to know his answer.
All of a sudden he stood up straight and handed me a glass of water which was kept on the tables to which I GASPED. Wow! What a brilliant response! This man is surely gonna think that I am insane.
" Woah, Easy there! "
He said and I drank the water looking everywhere but him. This is so embarrassing! Coming here was a bad decision.
' but then you would have never been able to meet this walking Adonis! "
Said my subconscious, well, agreed.
" You see, A Sick Room isn't the best place to meet a girl, right?"
He said and shrugged to which I raised my eyebrows, what does he mean?!
" Huh ? "
I asked being clueless.
" I didn't wanted to meet you at That situation when you were in that sick room laying on the bed, it wasn't the best situation you know. I thought to talk to you properly and know you personally in the ball. And I told them, not to disclose my name to you as I am a very secretive person Ms Williams, I don't like to do things to get the credits, and moreover people would have asked you many questions if my name came out. And as I said, I planned to meet you last night at the ball, it was a good situation to talk about all these but alas, I lost the opportunity because of that guy who was misbehaving with you, I left the ball. It was so disappointing that even in the school which is owned by me, students face this type of bullies. I was not in a mood to come back you know."
It took me a while to register his word's. He is a sweetheart! He is such a kind-hearted person. Without even knowing a single thing about me, he was concerned about me. I can say only one thing about him, He has nothing but goodness inside him. Only goodness. In our world it's hard to find people like Mr Khan who are filled with humanity. I am really lucky to meet him.
"Thank you for everything."
I couldn't do anything but thank him with pure admiration in my eyes.
" Don't you remember? I Said you, not to thank me. "
He said with a mischievous smirk and leaned closer, we were back at the same position as we were a few moments back. Me sticking to the chair with my heart thumping loudly against my chest and he with his hands on the arm rest caging me between him and the chair.
" Erm, am sorry Mr.."
My gaze lowered while I murmured a sorry but he didn't let me complete my words.
"Saheer."
He whispered in a voice which made me imagine thing's which I shouldn't.
" Why did you want to know me personally ?"
The question involuntarily came out of my mouth as a whisper and I regretted the next moment as I realised how dumb it was. How can you be so stupid Bell?!
Ugh. I know what his reply will be. He was surely gonna ask me about the bullies. Nothing else. At least that's what I thought, but his answer shocked me to the core.
" Coz I am interested to know more about you "
I felt my cheeks heating up as my eyes met his,did he just said that he was interested in knowing more about me?! Or am I just dreaming?!
" Why so?"
I asked softly, still looking at his dark brown eyes. The only thing which seems to matter now was him, his presence had an magical effect on me. His eyes, his lips, each and every feature of him was hypnotizing me, everything stopped around us, the time stooped. It was only him and me. His lips curled up in a smile as if he was going to answer but our moment was literally destroyed by the sound of the bell which brought me back to the real world.
Realising the proximity we were sharing, I shifted nervously on the chair and in the next second as if he understood my uneasy feeling,he stood straight and backed off.
" I.. I think I should...go.." I said while standing up smiling shyly, not looking at him for once, I am well aware of his sharp gaze on me which is making my legs shiver.
" Wait Isabell. "
I stopped immediately when I heard his utterly sexy voice which made my name sound amazing.
I turned slowly and my eyes landed on him holding my bag.
' you are fucked up.'
Said my mean subconscious and I can't agree more. Damn this is another embarrassing moment I am facing today. Still gazing down, I extended my hand and held the bag softly when his fingers slightly touched mine. Immediately pulling the bag towards me, I murmured a soft thanks and started rushing towards the entrance when I heard him saying something which made me feel butterflies in my stomach.
" I can't wait to meet you again Ms Williams, see you very soon. "
I blushed like anything and just nodded without even looking at him for once and hurried out of that room. This is probably the dumbest thing I did in my life. I wonder what he is thinking rn!?!
Carefully coming out of the restricted area and making sure that nobody notices me, I went straight to attend my English class, I already bunked History. I can't afford to miss English now!. On my way I spotted Emily and Stephan on the opposite side, I saw Emily's eyes popping out when I waved at her.
" You fucking have to tell me EVERYTHING or else be ready to eat frozen noodles! "
She yelled and I literally puked mentally. I saw Stephen giving her nasty looks lmfao.
" will call you tonight! Have class
Now, gotta go! Bye!"
I said and hurried away, entering the class I was relieved to see that the teacher hasn't arrived yet. I went and sat in the middle row and took out my phone, Elijah's text popped up on the screen. He texted me nearly 2 hours back. Damn. I didn't check my phone since 2 hours!
I read it and got to know that he wasn't able to come to school today but he will be coming to pick me up according to the plan we made yesterday night. I replied him immediately saying that I will be waiting for him right at the parking.
The class went well and soon the bell rang, I was relieved as this was my last class for today. I walked out of the class and went straight to the parking. I hope Elijah is already there as I am fifteen minutes late. I asked him to be there at 2 pm and now it's 2:15. But to my Disappointment, he wasn't present there. I called him but, he didn't picked it up. Where are you Eli?!
I am calling him since last 15 mins but He isn't picking up the phone!! I hope he is fine. Even I need to get out of here, it's already 2:45. I will have to book a cab to reach home. But this is not fair! I should wait for him! Maybe he is stucked up in traffic. But why isn't he picking up his damn phone?!! Ugh!!
At 3pm I decided to book a cab as the school is nearly empty right now with just few teachers who are probably having a meeting upstairs.
I stood there with my phone in my hand trying to book a cab when all of a sudden someone literally pushed me due to which my phone fell straight into the uncovered drain.
My heart skipped a bit as I saw it drawing inside the dirty water. FUCK! FUCK! FUCKKKK! MY PHONE!! NOOOOOO! MY BABYYY!! AHAAAAAAAA!!
I didn't realised when I started crying silently still looking at the now still black water. My mind felt blank as I wept the falling teardrops.
" Any problem Ms Williams? "
It didn't took me a second to recognise whose voice it was. Mr Saheer Khan. I find his tone very attractive. It radiates a powerful aura.
Slowly turning around I found him standing casually at a distance with his hands inside the pockets of his pants. I was so lost in his gorgeous face earlier in his office, that I didn't noticed the black shirt he was wearing which was making him look more hot.
" Are you crying Isabel? "
He asked while advancing towards me, I shaked my head but wasn't able to control my tears. What do you expect from me? I am 17 years old teenager who just lost her damn phone which contained everything she needs to SURVIVE!
*You are soo dramatic lmfaoooooo*
My subconscious self mocked. Bitch.
" My phone! It fell down there!! Now I can't even book a cab to go home nor can I contact my parents."
I sobbed as I saw him standing right in front of me.
" Oh, that's sad, but your tears are too precious to be wasted on this little issue muffin. "
He said with a mischievous glint in his eyes. Did he just called me muffin?! Before I could think more , he held my wrist and starting to walk with me lagging behind clueless.
" What are you doing Mr Khan? " I asked while stopping on my tracks.
Slightly turning his head he passed a smile and Said.
" Do you think that I will leave you here alone petite fille ?" ( Baby girl)
So that's it for today peeps! Hope you have liked the chapter.
Lot's of love,
Sam.
