Usher

Usher's POV....

This ,....right here, holding her after long three years , nothing is more blissful than this. It was pure heaven, her frantic breath against mine, the feel of skin on skin was the thing I have been missing since last three years. Her kisses were wild. Her single touch on my body was like fire.. We were like fire and ice so different yet so close.

She is my happy place... My right place to be and nothing and no one can ever change that. Our ignited passion, our most Ardent touches are the proof of our undying love..

I was afraid that I had lost her forever, when she started drifting away from me, the last 15 days were like torture.

No matter what I did, nothing affected her, this time it wasn’t like it used to be in the past, when she used to say she got nothing to do with me but eventually always ended up with me.

I could see the way she looked at me, I could understand the pain behind her glares that I caused her. I really broke her at one point but not anymore, her heart was too cold to react. No matter how close contact we had in those past 15 days, she remained ice cold, even though her body was reacting, but her heart was so closed for me.. I hated that feeling..

I hated that I’m the only one who did this to her.

But today having he, here in my arms, is the proof that I was so stupid to leave her. So damn idiot to loose the only good thing that I had in my life.

Now I have her... I’m never letting her go... Never..

She is mine to cherish, to love..

I know I was wrong to act selfish and leave her, but now I’m back for good..

Even after feeling each other, in the most intense way, I could feel the denial in her eyes..

She ran of collecting herself from the car, after our best encounter ever.. Without even saying anything.. I could see the guilt in her eyes..

I know she must be feeling that she cheated on liam... But that bastard is already cheating on her... That’s why I was back...

After running for a while Zara stopped at the side of a park, rushing I followed her and stood beside her.

She was looking at two people making out in the park..

She was shocked when she finally discovered who it was.. But I wasn’t.. I already knew that

Liam with Maya.. Her two very trusted people going behind her back and degrading her trust, betraying her..

I was planning to tell Zara, but didn’t have the courage and idea . Cause no way in the hell Zara would trust me after all I did..

But God’s plan worked better than mine, without any of my effort , the truth was already out in the open.

I expected Zara to go and question Liam but instead she silently walked from there, while they were still engaged in what they were doing..

Bemused, I followed her , she reached the car, unlocking the door she hoped inside it..

I too took my seat in the car..

“ Please just drop me to the hospital” She said without any emotions..

I know she was hurt. I hate that but more than that I hate the way she was trying to build a wall to hide her emotions.. I made her like this... And I’ll make it up to her for the rest of my life.

“ Zara, but...” before I could say anything..

“ Please Usher.. I don’t want to talk about anything... Not ,what happened between us not even what I saw... Just do me a favour and I’ll be grateful to you for the rest of my life.. Drop me to hospital.. Where my Zurich is.” She said plainly... No emotion nothing.

I slowly nodded my head and drove all the way to hospital.. Even though It was eating me to see her like this but I can’t force her to talk when she is completely unwilling to do so.

We reached hospital.. Jonah was already there..

Zara did not even greeted him she just went and sat outside Zurich's room..

Doctor informed us that Zurich is better now.. And by the morning he’ll be conscious.. Relief washed over me after hearing this..

Jonah was giving me a quizzical look.. I know I got to explain him a lot..

I took him in one corner and elaborated him everything that happened today.

He was pissed at me for again trying to force Zara.. But he is not getting the point here, she too wants me... It’s just that she is scared that I might hurt her again..

But she does not know that I’ll prefer to die than to hurt her.

After two days Zurich was discharged.. Finally Zara took him with her . During those two days Zara looked pale and unemotional.

I tried hard to bring out any emotion of her but she showed nothing..

I didn’t saw Liam in the hospital not even once.. I’m curious to know what actually happened between Zara and him after she found out the truth.

But Zara did not speak up a single word.. The girl in front of me definitely looked like her but she was lacking the spark of my Zara.

After that I didn’t heard from Zara For a week.. She applied for a leave in the office.. I know she must be in need of it.. Cause of Zurich’s conditions..

I missed her presence in the office.. I kept planning on how to win her back after our most intimate encounter , I was sure she still feels for me.. Her love for me hasn’t died... She just has suppressed it.. In order to keep herself away from getting more hurt..

She does not need to be afraid of it... I’m never ever going to hurt her... Never.. And..now after whatever happened and after what she saw...I don’t think she is now trading with the notion of marrying Liam anymore..

Until, there was a knock on my door..

“enter” I plainly said...

Liam... Entered.. What the hell is he doing here.. Looking at him raged me.. I hate him cause he is the one who is so close to her...

“ what the hell are you doing here..?” I asked him clearly annoyed by his presence.

“ Why are you here Usher?” he countered..

He was playing with fire.

“ Don’t you dare try to patronize me, when you are hurting her the same way or I should say way more worst than I ever did.”I snapped at him.

“ Really.. Now your concerns woke up , where was this concern when you left her, where was this love when you left all crying with a baby..?. Usher! I was there to see her crying herself to sleep.. Watching her dying everyday.. Do you know how painful it is to watch the girl who you love more than your life itself like this .. So broken.... So fragile..” when he finished, he was out of breathe..

I know he is right... I did so wrong with Zara.. But this is not true... He does not but I love her the most in this world..

“ Really... What do you think Liam I was thriving, basking in happen..being away from her... I too was bloody dying . Each ad everyday death seemed way more easier than life. And no one was even there to watch me... And for a matter of fact.. I love her the most in this world..”

I know I should not say that ... Cause I brought this on myself as well as on her..

Liam gave me bizarre look..

“ Look Liam.. I could have easily walked away from her cause I know, I don’t deserve her after what I did...I’m not trying to prove myself innocent..I know what I did was wrong...even though walking away from. Her would kill me .....if you wouldn’t be cheating on her. I would have gladly left.... But you did.. That’s why I’m not leaving her..”I started of gently but added the last part as an ultimatum.

He stood there,his gaze for the first time was soft since the time he entered in here. But.... Then crossing his arms he said..

“You know, you are the one who is responsible for all of this.. But anyways.. Nothing’s change..” He said nonchalantly.

Then he grabbed out something from his blazers pocket..

“ Here!... Our wedding invitation.. She didn’t wanted to invite you.. But I do.”

I stood there frozen from his revelation...

How can she still marry him.. ?

Getting no response, he kept the card on the table.

“ I can see you are shocked but please do come... You are cordially invited. To the wedding..” adding the last part with a smirk... He left..

While I stood there... No emotion. Nothing... I was feeling nothing... Just hollowness... Is this the end of our story?... She choose him over me.. !
