The One I've Loved 16 Argumen

" I took the book first " Rachel muttered .

" What do you mean by you took the book , it was on that chair so I took it ." Pointing his index finger towards the chair Justin growled .

" I was the one who put it there , you idiot ." Rachel said and pulled the book to her side .

" I don't care , give me my book " Justin pulled the book towards him .

"Why are you both quarreling over that book when there are many books in the shelf ." I said .

Why should I give the book which I took first , replied Justin curling his lips .

"I told you, I took it first . You go and take another book ." Rachel muttered again.

Justin who was looking at Rachel turned towards our side and looked at our hands .

" haaaa..What ....when ...how " he said widening his eyes in excitement.

I didn't understand what he said but after few seconds it struck me that I was still holding Austin's wrist . I became alert and left his hand and took one step forward. It was awkward ,why does Justin use his stupid mouth to embarra.s.s people especially me , I thought .

" Don't use your brain , Justin ." Austin said glaring at him .

" Hehe... what are you talking about , I saw nothing ." said Justin smiling awkwardly and brushing his hair .

While Justin's attention was at us. Rachel pulled the book from his hand and walked away saying , "better luck next time Justin ,"

I took a book from the shelf which was the same book they were holding and gave it to my cousin . Why do you always irritate her, what do you even get in return , I said .

"Satisfaction ," he said wickedly .

" You ....are an idiot ." I said and turned .

I looked at Austin who was standing there quietly all this time .

Sorry ....I didn't know that I was hh...olding..

" That's alright , " he said .

I gave a nod .

" Bye, see you soon " he said .

Yeah, bye , I said looking at Austin and then at Justin .

"No , sister . Wait , don't leave me alone , I'll come with you ." Justin said as if he needed me to rescue him from something .

" We are not leaving right now " Austin said smiling at Justin but there was something sinister in his smile .

Rachel was waiting for me near the steps , she looked at me with mischievous expression , as soon as I came close to her she asked me how did I end up holding his wrist .

" Few months back I wasn't there with you for few minutes and you ended up in his arms and now I left you alone for few minutes and you held his hand, what's happening between you and him ." she asked me raising her right eye brow and slightly moving corner of her lips .

"Nothing is happening , " I said taking a step forward while holding book in my hand and not looking at her .

It was the time of our final exams . I had sleepless nights and worked hard so that I could score well .

After our final exams we had summer vacation and a few days later our results were out in which I scored 75% .

Rachel was really happy that I improved and was proud of me .
