MARY POV
Wanting to be on my own,I went to up to the school roof.
I sat there munching on a snack that I had bought and I was thinking about Daniel.
I find myself thinking about Daniel all the time and why I don’t even know.
I stood up and saw the students walking about and I also saw James, he was looking for some one while a lot of girls were gazing at him
Who is he looking for ? I thought as I munch on my snack.
Just then I felt a pain on my stomach,it was sharp and intense, this is the second time I will be feeling the pain and this time it hurt more
It hurt so much that I could hardly walk and no one is around to help me
I dialled Miranda number but she wasn’t picking.
Having no choice I dialled James number and still there was no answer.
I was still trying to call James when I got an unknown call.
I answered it only to hear Daniel voice,thank God there is some one to call after all .
“Huh have been looking for you and I………”
“Please…….come to the roof top…..am in so much pain!” I said clutching my stomach.

DANIEL POV
As soon as I got the call from Mary, I began to head to the roof top.
Every one was starring at me but I didn’t care, all I was thinking of was Mary.
She had said it hurts, what is she suffering from? I thought as I climb the stairs that led to the roof and went in search of her.
I saw her crouched by the floor beside the railing and I ran to her.
“Mary? Mary ? Are you okay?”I asked and she shaked her head
“It hurts Daniel, it hurts!”she said and with out waiting for further ado.
I carried her into my arms and head to the school infirmary with her.
Other students kept starring at us but they were the least of my worries, Mary is more important right now, I thought.
A while later I sat on a chair beside her bed starring at her sleep.
Even when sleeping, she looks gorgeous, I thought as I held her hand
“You are still here? I told you that she will be fine, it’s just some indigestion , why don’t you head to class” the doctor said
“I know Miss but I don’t want to leave her yet, I don’t want to!”I said softly and she gave me a disapproving look
“Please doc! Let me just stay with her,if am at any other class, I won’t be able to focus, I will be worried about her,please”I begged using cute face for once.
“Fine then! You can stay , you must really love her a lot right? She is one lucky girl” the doctor said leaving the room.
I thought about what the doctor said, am I really in love with her ?
The only thing I feel towards Mary is like, I only like her but would I be doing all this if only I like her.
A guy wouldn’t go this far if they weren’t in love .There is a limit if you like some one but if you love some one……….I better not think about it.
I only like Mary, I thought as I held her warm hand
“Mary!” I heard James call but before I could do a thing to protect us both, he walked into the room.
He stared at me and then at Mary who was laying on the bed.
Ignoring me, he called out Mary name but I stopped him from doing further by getting up
“She is asleep now! Do not bother her ?”I said
“And who are you to tell me that?”He asked
“I have every right, now leave here James, you are being a nuisance”I said
“What? Me a nuisance? “he asked starring at me
“Who do you think is being a nuisance most? You are ! You are nothing to her but you keep on sticking to her like a glue, just stay away from her”he yelled at me
“Me sticking to her like a glue helped her today, where were you when she needed you, she had called but you never picked, If I hadn’t call her, she wouldn’t be here! so tell me if you aren’t being a nuisance?”I said
“Just because you were by her side when she needed you doesn’t mean that you have a right over her”he yelled angrily
“I do have a right? I certainly do have a right now more than ever “I said and was rewarded with him pulling me by my shirt.
“What’s going on In here?”the doctor asked as she walked into the room.
“Nothing !”I replied as I pulled free from James clutch.
“I told you that she needs a lot of rest and you arent giving her that, so I suggest that you two leave!”She said
“But I ………”James began only to be cut off by a look from her.
We both left the infirmary and I began to head towards the other end when he stopped me
“Haven’t you had enough, isn’t it time that you stay away from Mary,can’t you see that am getting along with her?”he asked
“And am also doing the same and as have said , let’s see who will get to be with her, so less talking and more action”I said and walk off.

**********************
A while later I was sent on an errand by the math teacher when I saw her leaving the school.
“Why is she leaving?”I said and quickly I did what he said and went back to class to take my bag.
I got out side only to see her getting into a bus and quickly I went in,walking towards her and sitting beside her.

MARY POV
I sat in the bus waiting for other passenger like myself to get in and just then I saw Daniel getting into the bus and what’s worse, he came to sit beside me
I was still feeling embarrassed by what happen, I wanted some one else to be there but he was the only one there and that got me feeling embarrassed and grateful altogether .
It was quiet for a while and I turned only to see him starring at me
“How are you feeling now?”he asked having a beautiful smile on his face
“Am…am good……better”i said starring away
Why does Daniel make me feel this way, am not some one who is easily shy but each time am around him, am always feeling that way, I can’t wait for the bus to get to my destination.
“I got down from the bus and though I was still feeling a bit sick, I walked on.
I didn’t want him to see that am still not feeling okay .
I turned to see if he was leaving with the bus but I was shocked to find him behind me.
“Aren’t you going home?”I asked
“Of course I am, this is the route to my home”he said as he walked past me
“But I thought the next stop will lead to your home?”I asked
“You got it wrong, my house is just around the corner”he replied softly
He began to head towards a route but then he stopped looking confused for a while.
I couldn’t stop myself from smiling,this is not the route to his house, he is following me,I thought as I walked past him
All through the time that I walk home, he was following me and some how that felt reassuring and protecting.
I got home only to see that no one was home.
Grand ma is always home at a time like this, where could she be now! I thought as I brought out my phone to call her but it prove to be fruitless as well
I called my mom too but still the same, would I have to wait out side for them,I thought as I held my stomach which was acting up again
I turned to see Daniel there starring at me , why won’t he just leave? I thought as I tried calling my mom and grand mother number again.
“Your parents are not at home right?”he asked as he came to me
“They are on their way, you dont have to……….”
“Come with me!”he said pulling me towards a taxi
“Where are we going to?”I asked
“Just come with me”He said as he pushed me into the taxi and with him sitted, the taxi drive off.
