There he was. His eyes were grey,sharp and focused. They were fixated on mine. I did not blink. Well, I could not. I was dazed. I wondered if he is what they call the knight in the shining armor? For the first time I wanted to be nothing more but that stupid silly girl dazed by her man. He was about to speak. I was stunned. He stunned me. “Not fair!”, I wanted to yell. I wasn’t the crude ambitious girl anymore. Atleast not now. Not when I could see his collar bone right through the unbuttoned part of his shirt, the perfectly chiseled face with a body that most-suited it and I could hear my heart go bummer in my ears.

“I could not help but notice that you were checking me out.”, he said. His brows made an arch right at the middle. “He said something, stupid! Use your tongue.”, yelled my inner Goddess. “I..ummm”, was all I could manage. I felt helpless. I wanted to hide somewhere from where I could watch him and not the other way around. What was I supposed to say? The truth would have sounded a tad hot and so embarrassing. I might have looked puzzled. My eyes never left his. I wanted to run in the opposite direction. Sweat it out. I was wondering. He was still looking at me, expecting a reply perhaps. It was then he held my arm at the elbow and pulled me closer, so much that my palm involuntarily rested on his chest for support.

I looked up at him.( I am short :/)It must be the push or the commotion that played the kill-joy. “Oh! I don’t think so! “,I sounded brutal.The daze broke. I was myself again. It seemed like I killed everything that would have been a wonderful love story. He looked plain, yet again. I looked at him, his eyes were already on mine. I broke the gaze and walked away. A few feet away from where he stood, I turned and he was not there. I looked around and he was no where. My heart sank. Tears welled up my eyes. I did not understand that, frankly.

I looked around but in-vain. It was about time. I had to leave. I wanted to see him. I felt a shiver in my body. I could not understand the feeling. It was intense. I looked around subtly. Seems, luck does not favor you twice! There was something about him. But it was ephemeral. I wished it lasted for some more time. I was not done watching him. May be he was my knight in shining armor. “Oh! Please. Just one more time”, I mouthed.
