Silence.....
"What....?"
Someone exclaimed.
Then the hell broke out.
Applud thundered fron the table to the right.
It was the biggest until then.
Adam walked to the Hufflepuff table.
He heared many congratulations.
But he was disappointed.
He thought the hat could give him choice. But it didn't .
'well then, Hufflepuff it is'
He thought.
The sorting continued. While Adams eyes wandered to the left most table.
The table itself had a crimson glow. signifying it's house.
'there she is...'
She was looking right at him.
Her eyes enlarged in a emote of surprise .
*What... the... hell... was.. that...*
She mouthed.
'cute'
When she enlarged her eyes. Adam could see his favourite part clearly.
Her eyes ...
Since the hall's light had a red glow ,it reflected in her eyes. The mix of red with her darkish brown was mesmerizing.
Two hands dangled infront of him.
Parvathi was waving her hands.
'ahh'
*I don't know*
Adam mouthed back.
And started looking for the protagonist.
But to his disappointment he couldn't see him.
' Were the hell is the protagonist??'
'Isn't he supposed to be here?'
Be was genuinely confused. Where could be the protagonist if not the school.
The it clicked.
'is this were the scene were they came flying with the car???'
'i want to see it'
"Kkrrr "
"Ahh..were are you going..?"
The boy sitting next to him asked.
"Oh"
' lost it for a moment ! '
He sat down.
"Nowhere just getting comfortable."
"Oh"
"What's your name "
Adam asked.trying to start a conversation to mask the embrassment.
"Owen cauldwell"
He said with a extended hand. Adam took the hand.
"And you..?"
"What....?"
"Your name...?"
"My name..?"
"Yes yours bro"

"I will tell...I will tell"
"Okay"

"How will you ask name of a beautiful lady who you have crush on"
'oh that's a tough one'
He hasn't done that at any of their balls.

The brown pair of eyes came to his mind. In the dazzling sunlight it was burning.

"Hey man you are taking so.. long . By this time she will be gone"
Owen said.
"Hear it comes."

He opened his eyes. And looked at the girl.
He started.
"Mm hello.... Wish I... am... Not irritating you... But...

Her face suddenly changed from disappointment to curiosity. They both jumped at adam .
"Who is she ...?"
"Who is she...?"
They both started questioning eagerly.'
"No one... It was just imagination..."
Adam tried to deny.
"No...way your explanation was soooo clear...to way to be a lie...."
Laura said.
"Yeah....who had our famous adam fallen for...."
Owen supported.
"Oo...is he blushing....."
Laura said teasing.
"No I am not"
Strong denial.
"What is it...?"
A warm senior who was sitting nearby enquired. With a creepy smile.
Every nerve in Adam's sent signal that this guy was dangerous.
"Our famous..-?--"
Adam closed Owen's mouth before he could tell. Then Laura started the remaining.
"Adam has a..._?-mmm"
Adam closed her mouth with the other hand.
Their pressed mmmms heared.
