The One I've Loved

Chapter 34

It has been a week since I returned from Oasis . Oasis is a beach touch resort which is on the outskirts .

A day before we were going , all the students were informed to reach school by 8:30 am . Our teacher told us that we would leave by 9:00 am hence she told us to come early to school .

We all stood in a line according our Roll Numbers . But our sports teacher came and told that it would be better if all girls are in one bus and all the boys in another . Students glared our sports teacher which was not noticed by him . n.o.body liked that idea , it was our last year in school and we all wanted to spend some nice time together but he spoiled it. But other teachers like his idea .

Everybody got into the bus one after the other , As soon as Rachel entered she went back and saved a seat for me in the last second row. I sat near the window and she sat to my right side .

As I was sitting on the window seat , I was able to see the bus beside me in which Justin and Aaron we present . They waved at me and I waved back . I looked around and there was no sight of Austin. He never came to excursion since he joined our school . He never showed any interest . I knew that his name wasn"t in the list of people who were coming to Oasis but still I had a small hope that he would come .

It was sharp 9:00 am everybody started to shout as soon as our buses started to move and that continued till we crossed our school premises. There were five buses and all the five buses started at the same time and followed one after the other . Our entire time in the bus pa.s.sed by singing , dancing and by playing few games. I fell asleep after sometime , Rachel woke me up and told me to look out of the window in excitement. My half opened eyes widened looking at the beach . As soon as we got down Rachel ,Cindy and I took our bag pack and ran towards the beach and other girls followed us after reaching certain distance we saw that there was no way to get down to the beach . We stood near the railing and watched the waves. Rachel brought a camera with her , we started to click pictures . I was looking at the the waves in awe . It wasn"t my first time to the beach but there was a kind of excitement as I came with my friends this time instead of my family .

I called Rachel looking at the waves but there was no response from her . I turned back to call her but my foot caught in the rug and I stumbled when my eyes caught the sight of the person who stood in front of me .

Careful , Austin came forward and held my wrist.

I"m fine .

He released my hand after hearing my reply .

I was happy and at the same time I was surprised when I saw him . I saw the list of people who were coming to excursion but his name wasn"t there .


I thought you weren"t coming , I asked him .

You thought about me ?, he had a smirk on his face .

He was true but his instant reply made me blush but I hid it with a slight smile on my face and didn"t reveal that I was blushing.

Why? .....can"t I think about you ? , I gave him the same expression he had while asking that question to me.

Wow , I wanna jump from here and swim right now , Aaron said walking towards the railing in awe looking at the beach view .

Why not , you can . Austin replied glancing at me and then continued saying , if you are ready to get punished .

And , why would I be punished ?, Aaron questioned Austin .

For jumping from here , Austin pointed at a board in which it was clearly written that people are not allowed to jump from the railing .

I know you will save me from those security guards, Aaron replied confidently .

I won"t , Austin said .

But this is .....

Before he completed his sentence we were called by our teachers to have our lunch and then we went to our rooms . We were told that only six people for each room .Rachel ,Cindy , Veronica and two other girls were in my room . Ca.s.sie and Stella are Veronica"s friends . I talk to those three girls whenever we meet . Veronica and I are still good friends .

As soon as I entered our room I opened the door to balcony . I saw Justin standing in the balcony .

The balconies are so close that we can jump from one room"s balcony to other and enter into the rooms .

Finally I saw you after coming here , I said to which he let out a chuckle.

Wish this was our home , I said to him .

That"s alright we can come whenever we want .

No , I want to live here for free instead of paying .

That"s possible too , he said rubbing his temples .

How"s that possible ?, I question him .

You just have to ask Austin , he shrugged .

Why ?, I asked him .

Oasis is one of their resorts .

I knew that Austin was super rich but I didn"t know that Oasis was also one of the Ames property .

That"s amazing , I was flabbergasted.

Then why did he come when he already saw this place , is it because of us ?, I asked him

He sighed and continued I guess he wanted to escape from his current situation .

Justin went to his room after Aaron called him .

I stood there thinking about Austin . I knew about the situations in his house , not everything but atleast I know a little bit that his parents always argue with each other.

He must be going through a lot since his parents are always arguing with eacthother .

We went to the beach and came back around seven in the evening . After taking bath we were called to have dinner . Everybody dispersed after dinner .

That day we all went to the beach and played . But Austin didn"t come . Since the resort was his family"s , he was given a special room . But he had his dinner with us . Excluding me, Justin and Aaron and Rachel n.o.body knew that he was the owner of Oasis .
