Both of them leaned forward towards each other unconsciously as their noses slowly touched. Their lips also came forward more to each other and few seconds later, their lips were just few inches apart… 

Their lips were about to meet when a sudden ringing brought them out of their trance. They jumped out from their positions as it was extremely close where Veronica was almost sitting on Reuben's lap.

Reuben quickly took out his phone which disturbed their sweet moment and cut it off. Both of them sat there awkwardly looking here and there, not knowing what to do..

This silence continued for few more minutes. Then finally Veronica decided to break it when she remembered something very important.

"Uhmm.. Reuben.." Veronica called his name in an extremely low voice.

"Yeah?" Reuben asked glancing at her.

"I have something really important to inform you which I absolutely forgot to tell you before because of all this fiasco.." Veronica said.

"Okay.. What is it?" Reuben asked patiently.

Veronica fidgeted with her fingers and narrated, "Actually, there is a mandatory project for the top students of our college. They have to visit different branches of our college to promote our multimedia work and to teach our fellow friends about new softwares and their techniques..

As you know I'm the topper in our batch so I've to be a part of this project also. So I'm leaving for city B two weeks later as my campaign has been scheduled there. Willa and Louis are also a part of it but they are visiting different cities.."

Like this Veronica told him about everything like she was going to leave there alone like a normal middle class girl in an small apartment without any security..

Reuben was trying to gulp all the informations at first very calmly but when each and every words penetrated in his mind properly he freaked out..

"What!! You're leaving for city B two weeks later and you're telling me now? Most importantly, you're going to leave there alone without your parents or any familiar person...

Vero.. Don't forget that City B is going to be completely new for you. You just can't stay there alone like that. I mean if you want to stay like normal girl in a small apartment...that's completely okay…

I approve your wish but that doesn't mean that I'll allow you to stay there without any bodyguards following you. Your safety is the most important matter for me and I won't let you play with it.." Reuben told her or more like ordered her.

"Oh!! Come on Reuben.. I'm not a kid anymore. I can take care of myself properly. You don't have to worry about me as you know that I'm already a member of Secret 7 and I had learnt different kind of martial arts, boxing and many other fighting techniques.." Veronica said while pouting.

Her cuteness again worked on Reuben as he ran his hand through his hair frustratingly and said, "Fine.. Do whatever you want. But I want you back here safe and sound.."

"Okay promise.." Veronica giggled and jumped on Reuben in excitement.

Reuben balanced themselves from falling on the floor because of the sudden force and hugged her back tightly but in his mind, another plan was brewing on...

'I know that you can take care of yourself properly. But still I can't take any risk with your safety. You're my life, Ica. And if something happens to you, I'll be dead too. So I'll send my personal bodyguards behind you to safeguard you from any kind of mishaps..' Reuben thought to himself.

Veronica broke the hug but didn't got out of his embrace yet. She looked at his face and whispered softly, "I'll miss you in these upcoming six months.."

Reuben caressed her cheek and muttered tenderly, "I'll miss you too Vero. I don't know how I'll spend these six months without pulling your hair and teasing you.."

Veronica punched his arm playfully but Reuben caught it and said, "Come back soon, okay? If any kind of problems occurs, just give me a call. And most importantly, I'll miss you like hell.."

Veronica nodded her head while Reuben placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Unbeknownst them, this day had changed their equation of friendship to another special kind of bond which seemed to have only four letters but defined a great meaning…which was being called as LOVE...

This was going to be the start of their budding romance which would soon turn into a full fledged romantic story of their own...

----

Two weeks passed by soon. Lucinda had already sorted out everything with her friends and brothers. Veronica also came back to her happy self..

Everyone had returned to their old selves and all had enjoyed the last two weeks to their full before Veronica, Willa and Louis could leave for different cities..

As per their schedule dates, the three left city S. Veronica started adjusting herself in city B where she had made new friends like Alex and Alonzo, thinking both of them were same person. She also got a new friend in Diana..

Months passed by and Reuben came to visit her once, giving excuses over his business which was another short story of them. Veronica literally had tried to kill him thinking him as a thief but thankfully Reuben's reflexes were quick as he was able to take his little lioness down..

After one day of his stay, he left for city S again while Veronica started her normal life again. Among all of these, Veronica had to face many hardsh.i.p.s which only led her to immense pain and hurt because of the betrayal of her new friends..

----

Six months later…

Veronica finally returned to city S with a foul mood. But she immediately removed those saddened expressions from her face as soon as she saw the smiling face of her parents.

She gave them their gifts which she had bought from city B for them. She also met Smith, Wilson, Johnson and Morgan elders to hand them their presents along with all of her friends except one person…
