She was a little unconscious and was leaning against me. I wrapped a hand round her waist in order to support her and then made her walk out with me. Just then I heard someone calling out Ila's name behind my back. I stopped and looked around to find a tall n blonde girl approaching us.
"What happened to her? Is she Alright?"She was worried.
"Oh. Nothing. She just got drunk. Was she with you?" I asked her.
"Yes. Umm...Hiee I am Sam, Samantha, Her friend." She smiled and looked at Ila who was mumbling something under her breath.
I chuckled and replied "Martin"
"Yeah..Yeah.. Of course-"

"Hey Sam" Ila spoke popping her head out of my shoulder.
"Ila, you ok?"
"No! I am not... See this-" she pouted and went closer to Sam. Then she tilted her head to a side in order to show the small bruise on her check.
She was acting like a small kid, doing it everything in a perfect cute way and I just couldn't stop myself adoring her. How I wished I could kiss that cheek of her. I grinned at that thought but when I took close look at that, I became furious. How could someone hit her that hard? I am sure it must have been really paining.

"His stupid girlfriend has slapped me-" she added and narrowed her eyes at me.

"Excuse me! She is not my-"

"Shut up. Just keep your mouth shut." she said it abruptly pointing her finger, while Sam and I chuckled.
"Is this funny Sam-?" Ila exclaimed rolling her eyes from me to Sam. We both were actually letting out small laughs.
"No, no, I mean-" before Sam could complete she walked past her and went outside tapping her leg against the floor.
"Ill take care of that. Don't worry." I reassured her while heading out of the place to follow Ila.
"Ok. Drive safe. Byee" she shouted back while I just waved.

I went outside and found her sitting on the steps with her head resting on her knees. I sat beside her and wrapped a hand round her shoulder.
"Get off me-"She exclaimed.
"What's wrong? You wanted to go out with me just a while ago?" I grinned.
"That was a while ago. Not now, you can go out with your girlfriend if you want. Go. She is waiting. Go"
"She is not my girlfriend!"
"And that's why she did this to me right?" she showed her side of the face again. Why does she have to do that? God she was too adoring.!!
"But she got her punishment for that Ila. Didn't you see that? -"

She was silent and I again placed my hand around her shoulder.

"I stopped arguing, that doesn't mean you can touch me, stay away and keep your distance from me, you understand?" she demanded but what she didn't know is how I love this game with her.
With that she got up taking the help of the railing beside and took a step down. She was too confident about herself to realize the doziness that she still has, as she couldn't balance on her feet and sat back again on the step below.

I stood up still chuckling and offered my hand for her to get up.

She placed her hand in mine and I was continuously smirking at her.

"I just asked YOU not to touch me, I can," she shrugged her shoulders while getting up and narrowing her eyes.

"Ha-ha-ha" I laughed sarcastically.

"Don't you dare to make fun of me? I am definitely taking your help but still I win and you loose just admit it"
She almost urged me to say that I loose and at the moment I wasn't any hard to loose.

"With pleasure. Any time for you" I said against her hair while we were walking together towards the car.

"Are you trying to flirt with me? Now you deserve a punishment for this."

"What kind of punishment?"

"Just pick me up and take me to the car. I don't wanna walk any more. Do it now."
She demanded and did she just call that a punishment?!

"Sure"
I smirked
She stretched her hands wide open across her while I lifted her using my arms. She wrapped her hands round my neck in order to support me and started swinging her legs in the air.

I kept staring at her throughout the way back to the car.
Her hair was messy still it smelled great; her eyes were deep and dozy showing the drunken state but still she looked lovely with her pale blue dress. Her legs were bare where I held one of my hand. The sense of her skin against me was just elating.

she was way too much out of her senses to know what was in my mind, while it was becoming hard for me control my true senses.

It was quite a long walk but holding her in my arms I just couldn't get enough of it.

We reached the car and I placed her in the passenger seat, tucked the seat belt while I caught her staring at me.

"What?" I asked.

"Did I ask you anything when you have been staring?"
Just then I again noticed the bruise on her cheek and she caught me looking at it..

"That's what I get for saving you from her" she stated.

"I am sorry" I rubbed my hand against it "Is it hurting?"

"It's paining a little" she stared right into my eyes and may be she saw my desire.
" You can kiss if you want," she added.

She is completely out of her senses. She is driving me crazy. But I just can't take advantage of this. I don't want her to regret something that I actually enjoy to the peak.
So I bent forward and kissed her check. I know it was disappointing but still it was a perfect Kodak moment because she titled her head up and smiled in order to receive the kiss.
I wish I would have captured a photograph of this moment.

"So, where are we going?" she said as I got into my seat beside her.
"What? You don't want to go home?"
"No" she kept nodding.
"Take me somewhere. Show me some place that's just beautiful and amazing. It should get a glitter or sparkling in my eyes and amusement to my thoughts"
"And where is that place?
"What do I know? You live here right? Do you?"
"You are crazy-"I exclaimed
"I know-"

I surely live here but not even once did I invade something like what she just described. It's not that there are no spectacular places around here, but still I hardly find myself admiring things that I see. May be I haven't even noticed some of the amazing things around me as I always found myself hating everything around. Now this is a tough thing for me.

I thought a lot. I had been thinking and driving while she kept humming something throughout. May be she thought she would entertain me instead of the radio but she didn't know that I don't understand the language that she is singing.

But I concentrated on what I have to do more than to listen to her. I thought hard about various things and tried to remember something that at least could get a smile on my face. Then something passed my mind. There are only two things so far that I've known and that could make me happy from the bottom of my heart.

One: being with her, which I already am and just enjoying every second of this time.
And two: It's my dad's place where my grandmother lives.
It's in the other part of the city. That's absolutely something that is just beautiful, amazing and gets a glitter in my eyes and amusement to my thoughts.. as stated by her.

But she was talking about herself right?
I know but that is the only spectacular place according to my acknowledgment and she was talking about my choice. Ok I know I am being selfish but right now I can't think of a better place than that, plus I would love to show her the best part of my life.

We had driven for about 30 minutes and she had been doing all crazy things thought the way.
She sang for a while, then slept for a few minutes and then suddenly woke up and slapped my hand, else played with my t-shirt pulling it towards her, or pinched my cheek and then had been talking throughout. All I could do was just listen, nod and react to her. That's all. God she speaks a lot..!! I didn't know she is such a talkative. She told me about random things, told her experience today. Her day, about all her friends, and about this new event they are working on and it went on and on and on. All I did was just listen to her.

If this is what the result of she being drunk then I would love to get her drunk always...

"Where did we come?" she asked as we pulled into the parking lot of a big mansion.
"Just wait. You will know-" before I could complete she got out and went straight into the adjoining garden of the house. I followed her.

There was a big garden with long coconut trees on either side of a middle path where she walked and that ended into a pond. It was absolutely a beautiful glory to the eyes and it's been a place where I have always loved to be with my dad. I rarely come here since it brings me back of those memories of my dad. But I could just say this place has witnessed some of the most happy moments of life...today may be I would get one more...being here with my girl..

She walked along the edge of the pond. There was a wooden plank from the bank of it to the middle of the water.

"Do you own such a wonderful place Mart? I guess you do right?"

Before I could answer that I saw her going on to the plank. She was still dozy so I followed her. She walked till the complete end of the plank and stood there still as if she was afraid of falling into the pond. She stretched her hands wide apart and lifted her head up in the air taking in the cool breeze passing around.
It was beautiful to watch her this way.

I went behind and wrapped my hand round her waist. She was startled and looked to her side right into my eyes. she still has got that mild drunken look in her eyes and it looked as if her eyes were lazy to even blink

"You are beautiful Ila" I whispered into her ear.
"I know I am Mart but you look pathetic and disgusting. I am sorry I've to say this. But it's true" she teased me.
Before I could react her leg slipped at the edge of the plank and she was about to fall back away from my grip. Just then I caught hold of her wrist and she was held by my hand right at the edge of the plank.

She then recovered form the sudden turn of events. I could see fear crossing all over her face and I still held her while she was in a bent position leaving her back in the air and her wrist in my hand. I kept staring at her. I didn't even bother to make her stand still.

"Pull me damn it! What are waiting for?" her question made me more mischievous.

"First agree that I am handsome.."

"What? Are you nuts? Just shut up and pull me up Mart" She screamed

"Only after you admit what I said-"

"No! I won't"she stated
"Fine then even I won't"
With that I pushed my hand a little over her applying pressure on her bent body in order to scare her.

"No! Mart please! I am scared of water. I can't swim! Please pull me up" she stared requesting and I am just loving this game.
I was still waiting for her to say what I wanted.

"Alright! You are-Handso-me.!" She exclaimed

"Good"
I gripped her hand with mine tight and forced her up to stand on the plank. But she still caught hold of my hand tight. I sensed some kind of mischief in her eyes. I moved back doubtfully but it was too late for me to react. She got behind me within seconds and pushed me right into the water.

*****Smash****

I was in the middle of the pond in the water in the very next moment.
Then I saw her laughing hilariously at the side of the bank. All I could do was watch her with a smirk.

"This is not at all deep..! " she exclaimed after observing my grin.

I chuckled. "And that's why I was trying to play with you up there.ha ha I was able to fool you again..!"
I said as I came out of the water.
She pouted and I laughed more while I removed my shirt that got drenched. Then I caught her staring at my abs.

"You like what you see?" I smirked and raised my eyebrow.

She became uncomfortable for a moment and then looked away rolling her eyes.

"Umm..So I was asking if you own this place?" she immediately changed the subject. She sat down on the sand and beckoned me to sit beside her.
"Well, Yes. This place is my dad's. My grandmother lives here." I said while I rested my hands on my up-folded knees.

"You really love your father. Don't you?"
"How do you know?"
"I know a lot more..." she rested her hand on my shoulder and stared into my eyes.

"Mart you are not that bad as you appear you know"
"What? So the means I appear bad, huh?"
She chuckled and continued.

"We have very little amount of time in our life for hatred Mart"
"What do you mean?"
"Why do you want to punish yourself for all that happened to you?"

I was confused. I couldn't actually make out what was she talking about.

"Is it my mistake that I resemble the girl in your past a little?
Is it fair on you to hate me just because you wanna hate her?"

"What?? I don't hate you-"

"And don't search for her in me Mart. I am not her. I am different.
Don't look at me like her, please, and please don't hate me so much, I just can't take it Mart."

She nodded her head as in despair and I was completely shocked at this. What she just said was true. I thought of hating her only because she reminds me of my past but lately I've discovered my true feelings for her. She changed my world completely. She had brought in this change in me and made me to love again.

I looked at her while she had her head down.I lifted it up holding at her chin and forced her to look at me. She then forced a fake smile..

"Don't hate me Mart. It makes me feel worthless to you. Am I really?" She continued and rested her head on my shoulder.

"How could you think that Ila?
I don't hate you. I just cannot hate you at all...And you are not worthless. You are really special to me."

I kissed her forehead.

"I don't hate you Ila. I Lo-"
I looked down at her to find that she was already a sleep.
I could see she was comfortable in my embrace and she had already drifted into deep sleep.

I wasn't sure if she heard what I said or not but I was almost ready to confess my feelings to her. But actually couldn't make it.
Now I've to wait until morning to confess or to conclude anything.
I have to know what she thinks of me. I have to know her true feelings about me....I am really confused now..
