Maryams point of view: 

His hug was so calming, it made me feel safe and secure. Hugging him while crying felt right, like he was the only person that knew how to calm me down. I've known him for about 3 weeks and it feels like 3 years. Butterflies roamed around my stomach giving me a feeling of spark rush through my entire body. It felt right. 

After calming down I had to let go. Even though I yearned for the feeling of staying in between his arms forever. He called the nurse to remove the IV drip. 

I clenched onto the bed sheets as I shut my eyes tightly. I despised needles. They terrified me. If I was conscious while they insert it through my vein I would have screamed like a child and rejected even considering it. 
...............

M7mmeds point of view:

The expression on her face said it all. She was beyond petrified. Her eyes were squeezed shut and she had her head turned to the other side as the nurse simply touched her hand. 

I got up walked to the bed and sat on the side of the cold sheets. I held her left hand and almost immediately she held it tightly and squeezed it. Her hands were so tiny compared to mine but it fit perfectly in my hand. I started rubbing my thumb to try and ease the pain and her eyes weren't shut as tightly as they were, good sign. 

The nurse pulls out the needle and she still has her eyes shut. 

"Is it out yet" she whispered. 

"Eeh eeh lt5afeen *chuckle*" she opened her eyes wide again and I could see her beautiful green eyes. They take me into another universe every time. 
...............

Maryams point of view:

Letting go of his hand, I jump off the bed, wear my pink sneakers and take my bag from the bedside table.

"Yallah abii arou7lhm"

"Yallah

He opened the door and gestured me to walk first. 

"After you my lady *chuckle*" he said it with a british accent which was h o t but I would still prefer his american accent any day. I giggled and we walked back to the room having casual chit chats about uni and life.

Fara7 and lulu were nowhere to be seen in the corridor but sara was standing by the door, leaning on the wall. Fahad on the other hand was talking to a guy but I couldn't see his face because he gave me his back. I gave sara the "who is that" look. She shrugged her shoulders and giggled. 

The guy turns around and it was 3bood. I run to him as fast as I could and jump into a tight hug. 

"YOU! I miss you *sniff*"

"YOU I miss you more" he said back imitating my voice. "Tra I can't breathe" he replied I hugged him even tighter.

"La2 la2 meme lt9ee7een allah e5aleech lt9e7een!! No tears allowed ok?

"Ok" he let go and I wiped away the remaining tears that escaped. 

"T3ali what's this about you not eating properly and barely sleeping! You look like a skeleton, filled with bones and only bones!" I frowned "5la9 ana amatnich wla ehimich! Top duty list before I leave.." he gets out his phone and I laugh. "One: Get meme fat, added to the list". 

"Heyyy" I smacked his arm playfully.

"Ush not a word from you now go eat" I frowned again. "Now" he said sternly. 

"I'm not hungry!"

"You will be" he gave me his terrifying death stare.

"Fineeee" I said in a whiny tone. 

"Oh 7bebi 7mood shlounk?"

"Il7imdallah tmam int?

"Il7imdallah, ha a4itik i5ty?

"La2 shda3wa

"akeed? Its just that hmm how can I put this without offending her, she can get quite annoying" my jaw dropped. 

"Ya 7maar ana annoying?" I punched his arm lightly and they all laughed hard.

"La la at'3shmaar, a9lan kam meme 3ndina?" He said in a loving voice.

"Wa7da" I grinned replying confidently, fluttering my eyelashes. 

"*fake cough* 3amity maryaam *cough*" sara laughed.

"y3ni mt5leni astans shwai bs?

"La 5la9 asfeen asfeen" they all laughed harder. I crossed my hand trying to act all serious but I couldn't contain my laughter anymore and I burst out laughing.   

"T3alw wain my freaks?

"Knt baro7 ayeblich akl bs hm galw beyeboon" when he mentioned food my stomach craved anything, for the first time in a longtime I felt really hungry. 

"Mnn wainn?" I asked excitedly.

"Mac, I've been craving it

"Magool la2 7g il7ub *giggle*
bnakl fl cafeteria 9a7?"

"eeeh" 3boods stomach growled loudly and we all laughed.

"CHUB OK! mu makl shai mnn ams! A man needs his food so all of you zip it" he huffed. We ended up laughing harder.

"Skatna skatna" i put my hands up acting all defensive as i giggled. 

"WE'RE HERE!!" we heard two voices yell in excitement and in a melody tone. 

"My babies are here" i squealed out as they both ran to me for a group hug.

"we were worried sick about you!!" fara7 smacked my arm.

"btchofyn en ma 5laitich takleen thlath wjbat fl youm mykoun ismi lulu" lulu replied sternly following a deathly stare. 

"YUMA" i hid my face and the guys laughed. 

"you three if you can have your moment later now bring me my FOOD" sara roared at the word food.

"ok ok ltaklena please *giggle*" fara7 rushed to the plastic bags that she dropped earlier, grabbed it and  sprinted back to us. "yalla to the cafeteria

"to the cafeteria!" 3bod said with a wide smile.

We sat on a wide table to fit all of us. Fahad was on the tip of the table, i sat on the right side and next to me was sara then lulu then fara7. In front on me was m7ammed and next to him was 3bood. 

We dug in and ate our burgers, since we were very very hungry. Half way through the food, one of the nurses came up to our tables. 

"escuse me, sorry to disturb you but are you Mr. fahad alX ?

He cleared his throat "Yes, may i help you?"

"Doctor Michael said he needed to speak to you and your family urgently

"i'll be there in a minute" she smiled and walked away. Concern and worry took over us all in just a few seconds after the nurse had left. We all left our food, looked at each other, got up and ran to the elevator.

Dreaming Wildly: Chapter 6

I'm so so sooo sorry for not posting earlier i was super busy and i had a personal problem that made it hard to type but here you go and i hope you enjoy it! i love you guys and thank you for waiting! Don't forget your feedback because i really do appreciate it!
_________________________


The nurses rushed in and started telling us to leave, more like push us out of the room. I couldn't contain myself any longer I rushed outside and unconsciously dialed 3boods number. He didn't answer I cried harder as I leaned back to the wall and dropped down to the ground. The girls were crying hysterically and I could hear fahad calming them down saying some calming words and things like "its nothing she's alright" it sounded more like he was convincing himself.

I felt warm hands wrap themselves over my shoulders and I just threw my arms around him. I hugged m7ammed as tight as I could as I cried and cried. He kept caressing my back as he whispered quran. 

After calming down just a little I heard my phone ring and it was 3bdullah. M7ammed stood up and he helped me up.

"Fahod I'm telling him *sniff* bs 3bood please magdar askt 5la9!

"Ok *sigh*" he gave in not having the energy to speak any further. I stood up ready to answer as m7med stood right beside me.

"3bood *sniff*"

"MARYOOM SHFEECH!!" He panicked.

"Hin-n-d" I stammered.

"SHFEHA HIND!!!"

"3bood she's in a coma please *sniff* ltgool 7g mama w *sniff* baba *sniff* just come as soon as you can" I started crying all over again. Next thing I know my vision started to blur. I tried holding onto m7ammed but by then I collapsed and fell hard onto the ground. Last thing I heard were 3boods faint yells and m7med screaming for a doctor as I felt someone carrying me.
__________

3bdulla's point of view:

La2! Mst7eel!! This can't possibly be happening! Not my hind!! She can't be in a coma! My eyes filled up with a flood of tears but I held them in. Right now, even when I feel most vulnerable after hearing the tragic news, my sister needs me, my hind needs me. 

I booked the first ticket to london, called my dad and informed him about the little vacation I'm taking just to not let him worry. I wasn't able to tell him when I, myself wasn't able to grasp what happened. I called fahood to check on meme. After what seemed forever he picked up, his voice sounded to tired and weary.

"Fahood please goly sh9yr bl'6b6 w wain i5ty" I replied, rather hastily not even thinking of greeting him because of all the worry eating me up.

"T6aman, she fainted because of all the pressure surrounding her but the nurses took her to a room, as for hind il7imdallah she's stable now. They had to revive her but il7imdallah al7yn a7san!" A deep sigh of relief escaped both of us. 

"Tra ana bayeekm ilyoum, ana fl m6aar al7yn

"Laish it3b ro7ik 3bood! 3ndik sh'3l!

"Chub, one my sister is in her dark place right now! she needs me, two my cousin is in a coma! I'm coming and I don't care"

"Fine! Tabeeni a54k?"

"Laa2 you stay at the hospital m3a ilbanat and I'll coming there immediately"

"Inshallah yallah, bl salama 7bebi"

"Allah esalmik a5aleek al7yn, i've got a plane to catch

With that the phone call ended and I was on the plane ready to go.
_________

Maryams point of view:

I slowly opened my eyes but the light rays blinded me. I rubbed them softly and saw that white walls were surrounding me and an IV drop attached to my hand. I remembered what happened and sprung up out of bed turning my head to the other side of the room to find m7ammed. He held a book in his hands and was fast asleep. 

I got up slowly this time, trying not to interrupt his sleep. My head started throbbing with indescribable pain. I pulled the IV with me but it made a screeching annoying loud sound that made m7ammed jump out of his deep sleep. "Shit" I cursed under my breathe. 

"You're up! How are you feeling" he rushed towards me trying to help me stand up, thinking I was struggling.

"I'm alright don't worry!" I smiled to him trying to assure him I was fine. "What happened to hind!?". He smiled, I was dying to hear good news. 

"She suddenly had a cardiac arrest" I gasped loudly "calm down meme!! 5leni akaml" just him calling me meme calmed me down a little. "After they tried reviving her they succeeded and she's stable now so don't worry".

"Wait but she's still in a coma right?" I looked down to the ground holding the bed for support as I was still feeling dizzy and my eyes stung from the tears that were forming.

"Yes but the doctor said the advantages of her waking up are very high now, what happened earlier somehow helped here to wake up". 

"So she's better?!"
____________
Mohammed's point of view; 

"Eeeh il7imdallah

"IL77IMDALLAH" she replied with a huge sigh of relief, she was happy which was so cute. Her lips finally curved into a smile, I've been dying to see that smile! Wait what am I saying. She should just be like a sister to me! I can't do this to 3bood, his dad or even mine! I tried brushing the thoughts away and just smiled to her.

"Yallah tabeeni asa3dich w awadeech 7g ilbanat?"

"Eeh yallah bs dgega ana hni mnn mta?" She looked confused as she was searching for a watch to check the time, it was beyond adorable! Ok chub m7mmed bs chub 5la9 I kept telling myself.

"9arlich 6 sa3aat" her jaw simply dropped out of shock.

"6 hours!! Shda3wa!"

"3yal?? You haven't eaten or slept properly in a while you needed to rest properly!" I accidentally raised my voice, i lost my temper a little too easily. She looked down at the ground and her eyes teared, regret took over me immediately.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to

She kept her eyes down and her tears rolled down her cheeks. 

"Meme wallah I didn't mean to sorry just please don't cry, chofeeni

She didn't look up. Using my index finger I lifted her face up and looked deep into her eyes. She looked so weak and her eyes kept tearing up. "I'm sorry" I whispered back to her again. Without even noticing my actions I held her into a hug and she hugged me back tightly, feeling her warm embrace and tiny figured body compared to mine. She started sobbing again as she clenched onto my shirt. 

"I miss her

She now cried harder and I hugged her even tighter trying to calm her down. Our hug lasted for awhile and I didn't want to let go. I wanted to be the one that was always there for her. The one person she'd run back to when something is wrong, the person she'd want to spend all her great memories with. Right at that moment I wanted to be her everything because she felt like mine. I just wish she would remember me like I remember her and think of me the way I think of her.

Dreaming Wildly: Chapter 5

Hello beautiful people, since school has started i wont be able to post as often i'm sorry please understand:(! i'll try posting every weekend! now enjoy the chapter and don't forget your feedback! I LOVE YOU!
____________________________________


"Fahood" I shrieked "la-ish h-h-ind hni SH9AR" I managed to speak in between my sobs. I stuttered when it came to hinds name I wasn't able to grasp what was happening.

Fahad helped me up and walked me to the chairs. I kept crying and crying, simply visualizing how she looked like makes me break down even more. Her face was filled with huge bruises, a deathly scar on her forehead, her left leg and right hand were casted. 

Fahood was Hinds older brother, 3yaal 3mi a7mad. He kept caressing my back until I calmed down. 

"Fahood, explain please

"*sigh* about a week ago she was walking to the grocery store when a car crashed into her" my tears started to flow again. 

"Why didn't anyone know?! No one in our family knows by this news right?*sniff*" i was furious yet crushed.

"No, my dad said it would be best if we didn't tell anyone until she's out of the ICU and when her health starts to improve *sigh*

"Waina 3mi a7mad??

"He just went back to the hotel to shower and change his clothes with my mum

He looked devastated, his eyes said it all. They were red and puffy. 

"Where's saro?"

"She went downstairs to get us something to eat

"Be honest, has she improved?" i was too scared to ask.

"She has but there's a possibility of memory loss" a tear rolled down his cheeks. "The doctor said because she was hit with a strong force she had a Hemorrhagic stroke causing a blood vessel in the brain to rupture". I was in complete shock I didn't know what to say, my jaw simply dropped as more tears started to flood my eyes. His eyes reddened and I could see how strong he was fighting the urge to burst into tears.

All I could say was "Inshallah tgoom blsalama w lazm in5ali emana ib allah gwi"  
"MEME" I knew that voice, it was sara. I stood up and she ran towards me giving me the tightest hug as she sobbed. She grow up so much, I haven't seen her in almost 2 years because of how busy I was.

"I'm so glad you're here

"7bebtii it'll be alright inshallah" I held in my tears. I had to be strong! Her sister was 19 and we were older so we had to be the shoulder she can lean on. Fahad was 27, just a year older than 3bood. 

"Fahood

"n3am"

"Lazm tgool 7g uboi w umi, they have to know

"Inshallah bs mthl ma gltlich when she gets better

"Saro I'll go tell faroo7 and lulu you want to come?

"They're here??

"Yup, yala t3alii

So the story about hind is that she's my age, just 2 months difference. She has been my other half ever since we were kids but she had to move to london with her entire family as soon as she graduated from high-school because her dad had a job offer and so the family moved with him. Hind, fara7, lulu and I were the inseparable best friends. I kept hoping and praying she would wake up again so we would go back to our old days.

We walked to where lulu and fara7 were and we broke the news to them, we started crying again and it was chaotic.

..

15 days have passed by and there have been improvements on hind. She can now finally go to a regular room after being stuck in the ICU for 3 weeks, she's still unconscious which is worrying all of us. Fara7, lulu, sara, fahad and I have been talking to her every single day telling her how our days were because the doctor said it might help. Her parents were still a mess.

I was beyond the point of being depressed. It was a daily routine of waking up super early going to the hospital for an hour then I would head to uni and then go back to the hospital and stay there until its around 12 Am. I barely got any sleep, I was physically, mentally and emotionally drained in all ways possible but that didn't keep me from hoping for the best and praying. 


i havent talked to my family ever since i knew about the tragic news, i knew by just hearing there voice i would break down and tell them which i couldn't. i just texted them telling them how busy i've been and 3bood was quite sad that i've been missing our weekend skype calls but he said he understood i was busy.
....

I got coffee from starbucks on my way to the hospital to give me a dash of energy.  

Fara7 and lulu were on the tiny sofa in the room, looks like they fell asleep. CUTE. I sat on the leather chair next to the bed and did the usual which was updating her about the daily news.

"So today was the usual boring day at uni *sigh* oh Mr. Thomas asked gave us a surprise test today I think I aced it, well I'm hoping I did *giggle* remember m7med? My dads best friends son, the hottie I told you about *giggle* well we've got quite close. Today we both walked to uni together and it was adorable. You know I think I'm really starting to get a thing for him *sigh*

I kept talking to her about random topics just like old times, I got used to talking to her, I just wish she would reply and not make me seem like a maniac talking to myself. 

As I was heading to the door, on my way to the cafeteria, two people outside stopped me. The two voices were very familiar, masculine voices for sure! I shut my eyes tightly, trying to focus on the two guys. I was kind of eavesdropping but the hell with that they sounded serious. Wait that's fahad and M7AMMED! What was he doing here! and how did he know MY cousin fahad! 

"7mood how is she doing?"

"*sigh* she still looks exhausted every morning but I'm really trying to brighten up her mood with everything happening with your sister"

"I know, they were like inseparable sisters bs shnsawi, allah kareem

"7bebi fahood inshallah btt7asaan lt5aff btgoom greeb inshallah

"Inshallah! mshkoor 7mood mtga9r wallah"

"Fahod shda3wa int u5oi! Mla da3i tshkrni"   

Just as I was twisting the doorknob some loud beeping sounds are coming out of the machine and I started to panic. I opened the door and yell for help. M7med and fahad sprint into the room and fara7 and lulu jump up out of sleep. I felt my chest tighten I was petrified at that moment and my heart kept hammering against my chest.

The doctor ran in and checked the machines. My eyes filled up with tears that started trickling down my cheeks feeling endless. This cant be happening! not now, not when she was finally getting better.

I turned to see m7med, my face flushed and my tongue tied into tight notes. Did I have to keep embarrassing myself in front of him! This can't be happening! I wanted the earth to swallow me up and just make me disappear into thin air. 

"Hey girls" he smirked, he heard it, he heard it all and I knew it!

"Hii" I whispered back not being able to fully project my voice. I was now beyond embarrassed. 

"Hey"

"So..." Lulu said to break the silence "how are you m7med

"I'm good thanks for asking, how are you?

"I'm fine

"And you fara7?

"I'm great" she smiled widely. Looks like he forgot me, ok..

"Oh meem tawni mt4kra, we've got this place we have to be in right now" she saw how messed up I felt. 

"Oh right that place" fara7 went on with the act.

"Take care girls" ok this guy is killing me! I just walked past him not uttering a letter and not even bothering to look at him. After finally leaving starbucks we headed outside to look for a taxi.

"Meme lt'6ygeen ro7ich 3laih" fara7 frowned.

"Y8har! It was like I wasn't even there! Ok ok I get that I embarrassed myself but still" I kept whining.

"You need to get some fresh air"

"Now

"Hyde park?"

"Definitely" we walked all the way to hyde park and sat on the perfectly trimmed green grass, trying to keep my mind crystal clear. 

The girls were having their own conversation but I just got up and felt the need to call 3bood, he's the perfect guy for a mood changer. After the fifth ring he answered.

"Hala hala bl ajnabya hala bly nsatna" he chuckled "ya 7mara tra mkanich mbayn!"

"3boood! I miss you ok"

"Of course you do" I giggled.

"S5eef

"B6wfhaa lch mglti shloun ajwa2 landan m3ach? Enjoying yourself so far?" Me and 3bood were close but I still wouldn't blurt out the things that happened, he's still my BROTHER so it would kind of me awkward talking about a guy I'm starting to develop feelings for that hurt my feelings today! So I had to act all perky and happy. 

"Its great! Weather is amazing and the girls and I are making the best of it

"Meem feech shai?" He sounded concerned, my brother knows me a little too well.

"La2 don't worry I'm alright shfeek?" I tried covering it up so he wouldn't get any more suspicious.

"Galbi na'3zni, you know if anything is wrong I'm here for you right? I'm not only your brother I'm also your best friend!

"And I love you for that bs don't worry its just a little getting used to not having you bug me every 2 seconds" I giggled.

"Eeh zain and I love you too! Btw mama wants to talk to you"

"Halla 7bebtii il7imdallah 3al salama!! Knt bat9l feech bs ubooch gal inty tt9lain a7san l2na btkouneen msh'3ola

"Allah esalmich, Eh mama 5la9t awrag iljam3a tawni il9b7 il7imdallah, shlounich inty w baba"

"Zain swaiti ya ba3ad galbii! A7na tmam bs mkanich mbayn wallah"

"7yati mama a7bich"

"Ya ro7 umich inty! W ana amout feech! 7bebti klmti hind bint 3mich a7mad?"

"Ohh 9a7! Zain 4akarteeni!"

"Lazm tklmenha w tchofeenha! Yala ana a5aleech al7yn 7bebtii"

"Salmi 3la baba, I love you"

"I love you too hunny yala bye"

"Byee" and the call ended. I scrolled down my messages and surprisingly found a text from m7md. Even though i was pissed at what he did i still managed to get the feeling of butterflies roaming around my stomach. 

Mohammed:
I'm sorry about today, I didn't want to pop up and embarrass you like that and I hope you didn't think I was ignoring you! I just didn't want you to feel embarrassed any further and again I'm sorry.


Ok, this has got to be the cutest thing e.v.e.r. And I kept calling him a jerk the entire time I was whining, now I feel bad. He really is a good guy. 

Maryam:
Don't be sorry! Its just that I basically felt like a wall for the whole couple of minutes you've been standing there, but its alright.   



Mohammed:
Then I'm not going to avoid you next time you embarrass yourself?



Maryam:
who said there's a next time? 


Mohammed:
Just a gut feeling ;) 


God this guy can make me smile like an idiot by a simple text! I decided to ignore, not wanting to act all 'light as a feather' and stick like glue to him. 

I walked back to the girls. I laid down on the grass and put my head on fara7s lap.

"dude I totally forgot to tell you! When you were gone we made a friend her name is jane w mskeena her father is in a coma so glna 5al inroo7laha ilmstashfa insalm 3laiha

"Eeh meme please m3awra galbii" she said as she played with my hair.

"Ok yala inro7

"Yaay" fara7 squealed out of joy like a child.

"Tra mstashfa mu 7afla" lulu gave her a death stare.

"Ya5i kaifi w7shatni ilbint!"

"Both of you chub w imshw yala *laughing*"  

We arrived to the hospital and the girls called jane. She greeted us with a warm hug, she looked devastated. The girls sat down with her in the waiting room, talking to her and trying to make her feel better. I decided to get some coffee.

"I'm getting coffee, do you guys need anything?"

"Water for me

"And me

"How about you jane?"

"Nothing thanks anyways

"You're welcome"

I started walking around looking for an elevator to go to the cafeteria when something stopped me. I walked past the ICU and I couldn't believe my eyes. My tears started to fall heavily and I fell down to my knees. This can't be happening, it's all just a dream. I kept repeating in my head as I cried harder. 

"Maryoom?"...

...............................

I didn't want to go back and face him, GOD I'm such an idiot!! but i had to go, ugh here goes nothing. I walked to my seat, sat down silently and looked out the window. The view was beautiful. The hostess announced that we were 10 minutes away from arriving and that we should buckle up our seat belts. m7med broke the silence.

"are you ready" he gave me a genuine smile.

"I've been ready for this since i was 16" i giggled.

"16!?" he laughed.

"Yeah I've been wanting to study abroad ever since i was in high school bs t3rf baba! he would lecture me about being too young and all that, ohh and me being the only girl makes it even harder for him to accept so here i am now"

"then cheer up, show me that beautiful smile of yours" my cheeks reddened, i didn't know how to reply to him i just smiled and looked down at my lap.

After another few minutes of silence. The plane has finally landed and we were off to go, each person to there own destination, before we did we had our goodbyes.

"it was nice sitting next to you on that flight" he smiled

"likewise" i smiled back.

"farewell my lady" he bowed and i giggled like crazy "until next time" he winked.

"until next time" I whispered and smiled as i walked away.

I got my bags, FINALLY. As I was heading to the sliding exit doors i see fara7 and lulu holding up a huge sign saying "WELCOME TO LONDON SEXY WE LOVE YOU". I let go of my cart and run towards both of them giving them a group bear hug. We all squealed out of joy!

"My babies i missed you so much"

"MEME DO YOU REALIZE ITS BEEN A MONTH!"

"EH YA KALBA! A MONTH WITHOUT SEEING YOUR UGLY FACE"

"why did you come so late you should've come with us"

"you guys are still pissed about that" i frowned.

"well i wouldn't really call it being 'pissed' just annoyed!"

"a lot has happened since we've been here" fara7 said excited.

"we've got a lot of catching up to do"

"A MONTH MARYAM" lolo yelling into my ears again acting all dramatic.

"LULU MY EARS! B6AITEEHM" i smacked her head lightly.

"well you deserve it" fara7 replied sticking her tongue out.

"hey maryam" i turned to find m7med standing right behind me.

"hii" i smiled.

"nsait a36eech my number just incase you needed anything, oh and hello ladies" fara7 and lulu were melting, i could see it in there eyes. I slightly kicked lulu since she was standing by my side.

"oh hi"

"hello" fara7 peeked from behind lulu.

"this is lulu and fara7 my best friends"

"3ashat ilasami" he smiles.

"3ashat ayamk" they both replied. He gave me his number and i gave him mine and we were off to go.

"it was nice meeting you ladies, take care" and he walked away after giving us his million dollar smile. Two seconds after he left.

"OH"

"MY"

"GOD"

"WHO"

"WAS"

"THAT!!" i laughed at there reaction.

"Thats m7ammed"

"M7AMMED WHO"

"YEAH WHO'S THAT HOTTIE!"

i laughed harder, "well long story short, he was my best friend when we were kids and well he'll be in our university"

"eeh zain! i thought he was a stranger you just met!" she was very serious, you can say she's very protective of me since she's like my older sister.

"my god, mimi his eyes" fara7 blurted out, her face was priceless! Me and lulu laughed so hard we started tearing.

.......

Twisting the door knob to my apartment, i throw my bags in the living room, sprint to my bed wanting to sleep. Fara7 and lulu soon catch up to me and jump onto my bed, grabbing the pillows and start having a pillow fight. After all the laughter and the falling out of bed action we just lay down feeling exhausted and drift off to sleep.

I woke up to see that it was 9:15 so I decided to go to uni and sort out my schedule. The girls were fast asleep so I didn't want to wake them up. I went to the toilet, did my business then applied simple makeup and changed into black high-waist jeans, a flowy off-white shirt which was neatly tucked in and a hot pink cardigan. I grabbed my prada bag and my chanel shades and I was good to go.


........  

As soon as I got to thhe university I was completely lost! I didn't know where to go and where I am. The problem is, no one was around so I can't even ask anyone. Just my luck. God this can't be happening. I desperately wanted to call m7ammed but he might be sleeping and I didn't want to bother him with my stupidity. I decided to walk around until I found help. 


I kept walking and walking for what seemed a whole 20 minutes and I was tired. I found a huge board with some information about the classes and I guessed it would help but it was for the PHd students. I was so close to giving up when someone tapped my shoulder. I looked back to see m7amed, I jumped little, out of surprise and you can say a little happiness maybe? 


"Heyy shklich m'6ay3a" he chuckled.

"Hii and no" I crossed my arms.   

"Oh really" he smirked.

"Yeah I was on my way to the umm" I didn't know what to say, I felt embarrassed.

"Maryam, you're standing in the PHd section, an idiot would know your lost and well that look on your face says it all

"Was it that obvious"

"Well.... Yeah" he laughed.


"3ad 5la9 don't laugh its my first time here" I frowned.

"5la9 5la9 skatna, yalla t3ali, I'll take you to your section

"Ok

...And he did. In less than 5 minutes. How could I have missed that room! Stupid stupid stupid maryam!

"This is the room"

"Thank you" I smiled.

"Maryam"

"Hmm" I looked up to see what he needed. I was too busy looking for the papers in my bag.


"I told you to call me if you needed help" he looked serious, crap.

"Umm well I thought you were sleeping and you know, I didn't want to disturb you

"maryam" he sighed "next time call, I don't care if you think I'm sleeping, busy or whatever, just call ok?" he sounded genuine and concerned.

"Ok" my cheeks turned into a light shade of pink, why and how does he have that affect on me! "Well thank you again"

" No thank yous needed" he smiled, I melted. "I'll see you later, take care

"You too"

After finally finishing all the crazy paper work business I was off to go. It was around 12 so the girls would probably be up. I called fara7 and thank god she picked up. 


"Hiii" she yawned.

"Hey, did you guys just wake up?"

"Yeah about 5 minutes ago, where are you"

"I'm at the university, just finished doing all the paper work and the schedules

"Good we did ours about 3 weeks ago

"I know, I hate you guys for not waiting for me"

"We love you more, ok now what do you need?" I spaced out.

"Haa oh right let's all go to any coffee shop, I need coffee!" I said eagerly, I need my morning coffee or else, I won't function and become very VERY moody.

"God no, CAFFEINE MONSTER IS ON THE LOOSE" she yelled out. I could here lulu on the other side screaming.

"NO NO NO" they both laughed hard. Being over dramatic and crazy is their specialty.


"You guys I'm serious yala 3ad please".

"Ok ok you stay at uni we'll be there in about 15 minutes"

"Why uni? Let's go somewhere else"

"Cuz I have some work to do now byeee so I can go get ready to see my maganda" (maganda is beautiful in Philippino in case some of you didn't know) I laughed.

"Yallah bye-byee"

I sat down on one of the wooden chairs and just waited for them. 15 minutes passed, still not here. 20 minutes passed and they're still not here. 30 then 40 and they're still not here. I was going to K.I.L.L them. I called lulu.

"You freaks where are you I'm starving and its almost 1!

"Calm down calm down" she laughed "we're two seconds away"

"Its been 40 minutes BY THE WAY"

"We see you, bye"


I saw them walking towards me, I wanted to strangle them. I looked at fara7 then to lulu. 

"Sowwy" they both said in a cute baby innocent accent with puppy dog eyes.

"Don't use that face on me, move jdami yala" i couldn't help acting serious and so i laughed.

We ended up going to starbucks (the one in uni). We got out orders, black coffee for me of course. We sat down and started to gossip.

"Oh my god you guys you can't believe what happened today"

"What happened!!"

"talk now!

"So I was lost and I walked around uni for a long time, then when I was about to give up m7med popped out of nowhere and he helped me" lulu was giving me strange looks but I avoided them, thinking they were one of her 'oh no you didn't' looks. "It was so cute how he just helped, god you guys shouldve seen him, my savior my.." Just as I was about to go on fara7 shot my a glare to look behind me.

"Umm meme" both of them looked down to there laps giggling. 

"You guys what's so funny" i just stared at them blankly.

"A7m" crap crap crap crap crap, please shoot me

.......................



My parents were gracefully sitting there having their own chit chats about god knows what. All I saw was my mothers cheeks turn pink and it automatically made me smile. Even after all these years of my parents being together my dad can still work his magic on my mum and she'd still react to his sweet words. They still look like two teenagers that just fell in love, i only hope to have that when i get married.

"A7mm" i said as i giggled interrupting there moment.

"inty mnn mta wagfa wrai" he chuckled.

"about two minutes ago"

"ohh" daddy was too cute.

"I'm leaving in a couple of minutes" i frowned, so did my parents.

"come here baby girl" my dad called out to me, waving his hands indicating for me to sit on his lap. I was daddys little princess, this was normal. i walked towards him and sat on right thigh.

"hmm" i looked up to him waiting for him to speak.

"listen 7bebti, you're my only daughter and you know how much your mother and I, love you." he took a deep breathe before continuing. "we trust you and we're allowing you to go because we know you're a mature young lady now,  but you're still my baby girl and you always will be" i chuckled as i gave him a peck on his forehead, mum was just smiling with teary eyes letting my dad do all the talking because she used every strength in her not to let her tears flow, 7yati mama. "listen ya 7yat ubooch inti" mum gave him a look which caused me and my dad to laugh.. "inti b3d dinyiti w 3umri w kl shai feni ya um 3bdulla" my mums cheeks reddened. "as i was saying, i know you, lulu and fara7 have your rebellious acts and you can go a little crazy sometimes" "a little" my mum laughed. "ok ok a lot but i know that you, my daughter will behave, ok sweetie?". I nodded as i giggled and my cheeks turned pink.

"YUMAAA YUBAAA WAINKMMM" 3bood yelled out.

"7BEBI SHFEEK 3SA MA SHAR FEEK SHAI!?" my mum hurried to him worried, he simply chuckled oh boy will i miss this idiot.

"la2 yuma shfeech bs chee adawrkm" he kept laughing.

"6ya7t galbi w galb umik ya wlad! shwai shwai" he joined 3bulla and laughed, we all ended up laughing hard.

"Meem tra bn6l3 fe 5ms dgayg so start all the mushiness now" he giggled, sometimes i wonder, is laughing all he ever does?

"ok ok" i hugged both my parents very very tightly gave both of them a kiss on the forehead and on both cheeks. As i turned to hug 3bood he took me off guard, carrying me into a tight hug and twirling around the room.

"3BOOD *laughing* 3bood stop I'm going to fall and break my head *giggles* 3bood come on!" he finally put me down for what seemed a whole two minutes.

"ok yalla imshy ilsayara" he pulled my hand in a playful way.

"bye mummy and daddy i love youu" i replied as i was heading to the door.

"love you more and take care of yourself" they both replied at the same time.

"ohh and sweetheart m7mmed wld 3amich 9ali7 will be in the same university you're in" he replied hastily,

"wait he will wha-" just as i wanted to continue 3bood pulled me out of the house dragged me to the car, opened the passenger seat door for me, just as i was about to go all "AWWWW" to him he pushes me in.

"dshi yalaa your flight is in an hour and fifteen minutes we can't wait any longer"

"and to think you were acting like a gentleman pfsht what was i thinking" he chuckled "really? really?' i stared back at him having one eyebrow raised. He just laughed and started the car.

The first 5 minutes were dead silence, the train of thoughts kept crashing through my mind feeling endless. I barely remember this guy and he'll be in the same university. Ok, ok I'm just over reacting! I won't know anyone in the university except for lulu and fara7. I brushed the thoughts away and decided to open the radio. Perfect luck, one of my favorite songs were playing so i turn the music up and start screaming my lungs out.

"NEVER HAD MUCH FAITH IN LOVE OR MIRACLES" 3bood joined in.

"NEVER WANNA PUT MY HEART ON THE LI-I-NEE" he held his chest on the word "Heart".

"BUT SWIMMING IN YOUR WORLD IS SOMETHING SPIRITUAL"

"I'M BORN AGAIN EVERY TIME YOU SPEND THE NIGHTTT"

...

We kept singing and acting like the lunatics we truly are until we finally arrived to the airport, 3bdulla helped me with my luggage as he carried my bags and place them onto the carts. It was quite funny, girls were staring at him and drooling, nothing new. He was indeed handsome. Tanned skin, dark hair, hazel eyes, sharp jaw line, a soft dimple on his left cheek, broad shoulders and a masculine body.

"3bood the girls are checking you out" i whispered to him as i giggled. They gave me stares filled with envy and it made me laugh hard. Very normal i though, i didn't ever look like his sister. I had light brown hair, big green eyes, fair skin and full pink lips.

"of course they will" he smirked, "have you seen this" pointing to his face with his index finger.

"*giggling* GOD you're so egotistic it's killing me"

"e7glii" he winked.

"aggooooll gimme one last hug before i leave" he gave me his rib crushing hug.

"you better come visit fahm"

"and you better not-" i cut him half way through.

"forget our weekend Skype calls! don't worry i won't" i smiled.

"thats my sister, yalla roo7i before you get too late! i love you byee"

"love you too dodo" i loved calling him that it annoys him, makes him feel like a kid. Well thats what he always says. He looked at me raising his left eye brow, crossing him hands but then he smiled and i walked towards the door waving goodbye one last time. My dreams are now going to finally start.

....

After finally finishing all the airport business i walked towards my gate hearing that my plane was about to depart. I found my seat in the plane and thank god it was next to a window, i hated sitting next to the aisle! After making myself comfortable i saw a guy walking towards my seat with a wide smile, he sat next to me also making himself feel comfortable.

"hala" he said with a smirk.

"um ahlain" i replied hesitantly.

"Shsmich ya 7lwa" now he's flirting, I'm not feeling comfortable at all.

"maryam" i took my iPhone and opened my music folder and put my earphones on trying to ignore his existence. He peeked through my phone, 5air, 3ad inshallah mu chee! he's starting to get on my nerves.

"Ohhh tsm3een a'3ani ajnabya b3d 6la3ti mu hayna" ok what? shda5al? i ignored him acting like i didn't hear what he said. How was i going to survive this flight all the way to london with him being this annoying and flirtatious. God help me! He pulled my right earphone out my ear, it got me furious! i was so close to yelling in his face.

"abii asma3 shno tsm3 il gumarr" i fake giggled nervously trying to hide my anger and my hands that have already turned into a fist.

"A7m, ilsalam 3laikm" i looked up to see this other guy standing, wait thats m7ammed! YES please be my savior for today i kept wishing silently. I looked at him with desperate eyes.

"5air shtabi" he spit his words out at m7ammed, this guy was beyond rude! I can see m7mmed giving him a long cold death stare that was so scary i was about to pee my pants. He clenched his jaw as he said the following words.

"ga3d ib mukani" he replied acting as calm as he could. He pulled out his ticket from his back pocket proving that it was his seat. The strangers jaw dropped, he was embarrassed and it showed! HA in your face! that's what you get for trying to mess with MARYAM! take that sucker! I had a victory smile fixed onto my lips as he slowly got up and silently left to his seat, not uttering one letter.

"shlounich maryam?" i just looked at him and my eyes met his making me forget how to speak. I just stared at his beautiful light brown eyes for what seemed hours but it was just a few seconds. I was no longer on this planet, i was daydreaming and all i thought was 'MY HERO'. "Maryam?" he looked at me with worried eyes. Oh god I'm staring, such an IDIOT.

"hmmm eeh tmam il7imdallah int?" i straightened up my posture trying to ignore the awkward moment.

"il7imdallah I'm good, so what brings you to london" Damn! he had a perfect fluent american accent, i was a second away from melting.

"I'm taking my masters, you?"

"I've been on my course of taking my PHD, it's my second year" he smiled. 'And when you smile the whole world stops and stares for awhile' i kept singing in my head, i was officially losing it.

We kept talking for the first hour of the flight, getting to know each other again and sharing some childhood memories. i found out that he just turned 25 recently and that he's the only child and that the reason for him being next to me on this flight is because my dad knew he was also going to london so he booked him a flight next to me.

"i remember the time when me, you and 3bood were sitting in the garden and you were wearing a cute white dress with yellow printed flowers" he smiled

"and then what happened" i was excited, a little too excited.

"me and 3bood were crazy" he laughed. 3bood is still the same buddy, he's still the same.

"wait what did you guys do to me" i looked at him with curiosity.

"we took the water hose and we'll..." he laughed harder.

"*GASP* No you didn't!!! my cute dress! noooo" my 'no' was all dramatic. I giggled and hit his arm lightly.

"tra my3awr" he smirked, god that smirk.

"y3ni tbeni a3wrk?"

"lets see if you can" he winked.

"tra agdar akaf5ik bs a5af tt3awar wayd, so no and yes I'm strong enough i guess all the wresting with 3bood payed off after all" i fluttered my eye lashes acting all innocent.

"maryam" he gave me a serious look "you realize you're tiny next to me right?" he chuckled.

"Well, i think someone's just afraid of fighting me" i put both my hands in front of me having them set as a fist "yalaa you wanna fight? let me show you real strength i bet you'll be in so much pain you'll cry" he simply laughed harder at me.

"maryam you wouldn't even hurt a fly" he put both his hands onto mine to lower my hands and that's when i felt the spark, it shock through my entire body and my cheeks turned into a light shade of pink. I lowered my head to prevent him from seeing the way i reacted and just giggled it off.

After all the chit chat i felt sleepy and decided to sleep, for what seemed an hour of sleep i felt a warm masculine hand nudging my shoulders softly.

"3boud mu wktk let me sleep just this once" i whined then heard a chuckle, wait 3bood doesn't chuckle like this, i slowly opened my eyes to realize i was on the plane. How idiotic and normal for me to forget. i rubbed my eyes softly as i turned to him.

"goodmorning sleepy head" he chuckled even more.

"are we there yet" i yawned and stretched my arms.

"no, we'll be there in about half an hour just wanted to wake you up a little earlier" he gave me his killer smile.

"thanks m7ammed" i smiled, got up headed to the toilet to refreshen, hoping i didn't look bad and as i got to the toilet looked back at my reflection a loud gasp escaped my lips. My hair was all over the place, my mascara was slightly smudged and my eyes were puffy. God how did he handle me looking this scary. I covered my face feeling embarrassed for the second time today!
