I’m 3 years younger (19)

2 months later

Bader and I didn’t see each other ever since we came back, due to the fact that his dad caught us almost kissing. I didn’t argue because the day I got back I found a letter for me. I was happy, but when I opened it all my happiness got flushed down the toilet. It was a picture of bader, with a girl. I thought it was from before, but I noticed the shirt. I chose that for him in London. He told me he would go meat a friend the day he wore it. On the back words meant to kill, “don’t mess with my guy bitch.” I didn’t tell him and I’m not planning to.  School is on its way, I need to focus. Two more years and I’ll be done.

Mum: nouf can you come down, bader is here to see you.

I was wearing knee- length jean and a green tank top. My hair was all curled up from my shower.

I clicked on the pause button, like any other girl I watch gossip girl. It’s not really my type of thing but I was dead bored. 

Nouf: hi

He squished me in his arms.

Bader: I missed you

Nouf: I could say the same.

Bader: what’s wrong?

Nouf: why do you say that?

Bader: something is definitely going on.

Nouf: so how’s your friend?

Bader: which one?

Nouf: the one you went to see when we were in London.

Bader: oh, he’s fine.

Nouf: bader, can you give me a minute. I want to show you something.

Bader: okay.

Nouf: I’ll go and get it.

I went up to my room, dug in my drawer, pulled an envelope, and then went down to bader.

Nouf: there you go.

Bader: what’s that?

Nouf: open it. Oh, before you do. I just want to say thank you that was a really nice thing to do.

Bader: I didn’t do anything.

Nouf: no, you did. You are just clueless about the fact that I know.

He slowly took the picture out, and nothing. He kept looking at it. Shocked, may be, regret, don’t care, sorry, it can’t be forgiven

Bader: nouf I ….

Nouf: you know that’s not the worst part, turn it over. 

Bader: nouf I can explain.

Nouf: I don’t need one. I’m not going to say anything to anyone. For the past two weeks I kept thinking why? The best answer I got was I’m not his choice. You can do whatever you want I don’t really care, but I want you to know from now on I only consider you a ticket to med school.

Bader: so you’re just going to use me.

Nouf: I don’t see why, you did. You pretended to get along with what your mother said about getting married to me so she would just let you be. She thinks you would behave; you get me to believe you love me, make me and your mum happy, but what’s missing. Oh yeah you’re happiness, and that you got by being with your girlfriend. 

Bader: that’s not…

Nouf: but of course selfish little bitch wants you to herself and that’s her way of saying it. Don’t forget to say hi to her.

im 3 years younger (18)

it's short because this is all i have so far you have to wait till tomorrow and thank you for all your comments

Yes, I’m extremely ticklish, and bader knew that. His fingers started moving on my skin, causing a very tingly feeling all over. I started laughing soo hard, I tumbled on the fool and bader fell on top of me. 

Bader: hi

Nouf: get off of me, you’re extremely heavy.

Bader: you should get used to this weight over you for later.

Nouf: Omg I can’t believe you just said that. Move, move; get off

He got off laughing. I got up to be pulled out to the living room.

Bader: come on let’s watch a movie.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. 

….. : Nouf, bader. Wake up.

I opened my eyes to see bader’s mum waking me up. I tried to get u but something was keeping me in place.

5alty Huda:  you two fell asleep watching TV, wake him up and get washed up before your mum wakes up.

I struggled but managed to turn around. I called out his name a few times, but with no result. So I pulled his hair.

Bader: a55. What was that for?

Nouf: your mum woke us up. Let go of me and go get washed up.

As soon as his arm let go of me I jumped out and ran to my room.

(After breakfast)

Bader: mum I’m going shopping with nouf.

5alty Huda: don’t stay out late.

Bader: okay.

He helped me put my coat on and then we headed out the door.

Nouf: bader where are we really going? 

Bader: look right now your mum would leave for a while. We will go to the air port to pick my dad up.

Nouf: I thought he won’t be coming until next week.

Bader: he wants to surprise my mum. That’s why she thinks we are going shopping and your mum out enjoying. 

Nouf: I think that’s cute.

Bader: my dad and I are completely different so don’t expect me to do these things for you.

I pouted and un-hooked my hand from his. 

Bader: nouf z3alty?

I gave him a cold shoulder, and continued walking. 

Bader: nouf I’m talked to you.

Nouf: what do you want?

Bader: z3alty?

Nouf: no, I didn’t, because it really normal for a guy to tell his soon to be bride that he won’t really spoil her.

Bader: wait right here.

He walked into some kind of shop. Yes, in that mad.

Bader: for you.

He was holding a red rose in his hand. I placed it near my nose to smell it.

Nouf: thank you.

Bader: you’re welcome.

We were standing in the middle of the street. Facing each other, me holding a rose, and since im so tiny it looks like he’s almost standing over me. he leaned in and kissed the top of my head.

Yeah okay that made me smile.

Bader: yallah 7ayaty let’s go. We’ll drop him at home, then we leave we have the rest of the day to our selves. How does that sound?

Nouf: perfect. 

i have good news

hay i know i said i'm going to Dubai this weekend but guess what plans are changed we might go next week so i will be able to post this week end enjoy your day

I’m 3 years younger (17)

(In the plane)

Bader and I were walking to our seats hand in hand. Bader gave me the window seat. I told him I’ll be asleep throw most of the flight and that he might not. At least he could have a look out when he’s awake, but of course he said he wouldn’t sit there.

As soon as the plane was air-born I relaxed.

Bader: why don’t you sleep? You look really tired.

Although the seats are really comfy, I placed my head in his shoulder and closed my eye.

I woke up to feel something resting upon my head. I looked out of the edge of my eye to see that bade fell asleep with his head on top of mine. I also noticed that there was a blanket around the two of us. Not wanted to wake him up, I stayed in that position, enjoying his warmth.

I didn’t get bored just sitting there doing nothing. I enjoyed myself, felt relaxed, and happy. My eyes were about to take a nap when bader moved. He lifted his head, one hand rubbing his right eye, the other at his yawning mouth.

Bader: hi

Nouf: hay 

Bader: what are you smiling about?

Nouf: you look adorable.

Bader: how long have you been awake?

Nouf: not for long.

Bader: want to watch a movie?

Nouf: sure.

With the blanket still wrapped around us we watched a movie. 

(At the airport)

Bader: that was the best flight I have ever had.

Nouf: I have a good time to.

Bader stopped a cab and the driver helped him put our bags in the trunk.  I had to sit in the back seat with our mums who were chatting. 

Nouf: bader where are we staying?

Bader: we have a flat here. It’s big and really comfy. 

Nouf: will your dad be joining us?

Bader: yes, but later.

When we got there I stared. The place was amazing. It is very big at least 6 room, each with a bathroom. There’s a huge living room and a kitchen. The place was wonderful. Guess what bader owns it, not his parents. They bought if for him for his 16 birthday. After we settled in, I changed into my pj’s. We had a light meal, and then everyone headed to their rooms for a rest.

When I woke up it’s was around 11p.m their timing. I walked out of the room and into the kitchen. After I prepared a cup of hot chocolate, I grabbed a blanket and walked to the balcony. I left the screen-door opened. 

Bader: when did you wake up?

Nouf: a few minutes ago, did I wake you up?

Bader: sort of.

Nouf: sorry.

He grabbed a chair beside me.

Bader: what are you drinking?

Nouf: hot chocolate. Want some?

Bader: hand me your mug.

I’m not the kind that would get disgusted, so I gave it to him. He said he would take a few gulps, but he finished it to the last drop.

Bader: my bad. Did you want that?

Nouf: bil3afyah.

Bader: Allah y3afeech. 

Nouf: the moon is beautiful.

Bader: not as much as you.

We turned to face each other. I leaned and gave him a very innocent pack on the lips.

Bader: you seem to be getting used to it.

Nouf: then this would be your last one.

Bader: I’m a thief. I’ll steal as much as I want.

Nouf: I would like to see you in action.

It’s like I triggered something in him. He latterly bounced out of his chair, and with-in this small second he was in front of my chair, pining my hands, leaning forward.

Any other girl would resist, try to get away. But I stayed in place. To be honest that little peck made me want more. His lips touched mine, but this time electricity buzzed inside me. He might have felt that because his hands moved to my face as mine locked around his neck. In the next second I was pinned against the screen-door, which I noticed was closed. After kissing and sucking on each other’s lips, he moved onto my neck. I was so overwhelmed I let out a sigh of satisfaction. Bader stopped and moved away with his eyes wide with shock. But what he said next got me shocked.

Bader: I’m really sorry…. I don’t know what go over me. I was just…. I’m sorry it won’t happen again. 

He looked at me and then left. I heard his bedroom door slam. I grabbed the blanket and mug. After I placed each in place I went to my room. 

I tossed and turned in bed. I couldn’t sleep. I kept wondering why did bader get uncomfortable with what happened. After a while I made up my mind. I got out of bed and went to his room.

I knocked on the door and waited. When he didn’t answer, I turned to leave assuming that he’s asleep. I stopped when I heard the door being opened.

Bader: nouf… ummm I… uh

Nouf: can I talk to you?

Bader: I guess, come on in.

Nouf: I’m going to get to the point. What happened out on the balcony really freaked me out. You were joking and then we kissed and the next thing I know you’re apologizing then leaving me out there alone.

Bader: I’m sorry I didn’t mean to.

Nouf: bader what’s wrong?

Bader: I freaked out.

Nouf: you freaked out because we were making out.

Bader: to be honest, I never got that intimate with a girl like that before. I didn’t mean for all that to happen I lost control of myself. I …

Nouf: you thought you would do something we would regret.

Bader: yeah, and I thought you felt uncomfortable and that things would become awkward between us.

Nouf: shut up. Even if things got awkward with our stupidity we’ll fix everything.

Bader: why are you soo sure or what you’re saying?

Nouf: because annoying each other became a routine, you won’t handle a whole day without doing that.  

Bader: want to bet on that.

Nouf: you’re so on.

Bader: by the way nouf, do you know who is in the room with us?

Nouf: bader there isn’t anyone but us.

Bader: oh, you’re wrong.

He started creeping closer to me. I backed out. I got stock in the corner of the room.

Bader: the tickle monster is here.

Nouf: you wouldn’t.

I’m 3 years younger (16)

 “Im under your spell"
Perfect timing. He's mine, and he's telling me that right now. I just wish I could thank him.

What? You're telling me to text him. Well guess what I don't have his number. He never texted or called although he has my number.

I'll thank him tomorrow when... Oh shit tomorrow's our flight. I'll spend the whole summer with him. I need to sleep. I can't have him see me look like shit. 
 
 
(3 in the morning) 

Mum: nouf wake up you only have an hour to get ready. 
Nouf: okay.
Before you ask I got zero sleep.

I took a quick shower; I put on my blue juicy couture training, and then a pair of socks and shoes on my feet. I brushed my hair and let it fall downy back in a ponytail. With eyeliner, I was ready. 

We are supposed to meet them at the airport. I saw bader sitting at star bucks. So I left his mum with mine. I took out the wand and walked to him. He was busy with his bb he didn’t notice me half way behind him. I crept closer slowly and tapped the wand on his shoulder. I laughed, hard, because he jumped.
 
Bader: well, good morning
Nouf: morning to you to.
Bader: I see you found it, my little spell caster.
Nouf: yeah I did. And thank you I really like it. 
I sat down and placed it back in its box and put it safely in my bag.
Nouf: did you eat anything?
Bader: yes. Did you?
Nouf: uh-huh I grabbed a bite before I left the house.
Bader: so you and I are sitting beside each other, first class.
Nouf: It would be better if you sit beside someone else. I tend to sleep during most flights.
Bader: I don’t mind because I too sleep during the flight.
Nouf: another thing we have in common.
Bader: look isn’t that 5aled.
 
I turned around, and it was 5aled. He was walking right towards us.
 
Nouf: what are you doing here? You aren’t an early riser.
5aled: I can’t let you leave without a goodbye.
Bader: come join us.
 
We sat and talked. 5aled got something to eat. Bader insisted he gets me a drink.
 
Bader: I’m sorry 5aled but we should board the plane. 
 
5aled stood up and pulled me in a hug.
 
5aled: take care and remember I’ll be waiting when you come back.
Nouf: please don’t do anything crazy without me. Talk to me about it first and I want pictures.
5aled: I’ll send if you send.
Nouf: deal.
 
He left go of me and turned to bader. I thought they would shake hands, but I was shocked when they gave each other a brotherly hug.
 
5aled: take care of her.
Bader: ma 3alaik a76ha bi3yoony.
5aled: nouf, bader, I want you guys to remember something.
Both: what?
5aled: I’m only a phone call away. Now go before the two of you get stuck here. Then you (nouf) will get stuck with 7anan.
 
That word got me and bader almost running to the gate.

im 3 years younger (15b)

hay people i forgot to mention this in the last post. my friend was gone of blogger for a while.

and she's back. but she won't put another post till she gets comments on the last one. if you are a follower 

and if you're not do follow her you won't regret it. here's her blog

http://sacrificedblood.blogspot.com/

Nouf: so…. Ummm… can we like get over with it?

Bader: why are you soo nervous? We’re here to “talk”

I bit my lower lip. 

Bader: tell me if you didn’t want to kiss me, why is there a new layer of red on your lips.

Nouf: that’s it im leaving.

 He grabbed my hand. When I turned my head, his face was right there. 

Once again his green eyes captivated me, like the source of gravity pulling me to him. 

His lips were soft a light against mine. I moved my head a little, parting my lips slightly. 

Feeling this he did the same. 

He moved his hand under my chin, keeping my head locked in place.

(Few minutes later)

Bader slightly moved his head away, allowing a small gap to form between our lips. 

With our faces still in contact with the other, both our eyes remained closed.

Bader: I love you.

Nouf: and I love you.

Slowly I opened my eyes to find him looking at me. He seemed at peace. 

Nouf: I should get going.

Bader: good night, don’t forget to look for me in your dream.

Nouf: I’m sure you’ll find me first.

Bader: bye.

Nouf: bye.

As I walked in his mum was going out. Salamt 3alaiha then went up to my room.

Mum: nouf, what happened with bader just now? 5aled left the house all wet then you and bader disappeared.

Nouf: bader pushed 5aled in the pool because 5aled was going to push me in. ba3dain 5aled 3a9ab, so we both hid.

Mum: so you just hid nothing happened.

Nouf: we talked.

Mum: and…..

Nouf: mum….. 

She started laughing. Yes laughing my mum doesn’t mind this stuff. She gave me a green light ever since she knew I accepted bader. She says anything that happens will bring us closer to each other.

Mum: just remember. He won’t cross the line if you stop him. Think before you do anything with him.

Nouf: okay mum.

Mum: good night.

Nouf: good night.

I changed my clothes and lay on my bed. I played back everything that happened today, but then 7anan entered my thoughts. I was really afraid of what she would do. I got scared. 7anan has her way with everything, what will she do to get bader?

After that thought I couldn’t get my brain to shut down, I turned to my bed-side table to grab my phone. Beside it I found a box. It didn’t look like jewelry, and I was curious. I turned on the light. Under it was an envelope with my name on it. 

“Hope you like it.   With love bader” 

I slowly and carefully untied the ribbon and removed the top cover. 

The thing was wrapped in cloth. 

When I opened it I laughed.  Inside was a black “wand” written in golden on it was 4 simple words. 

“You will have to wait for the up-coming post”  

im 3 years younger (15a)

this is dedicated to all of you who have commented sorry to keep you waiting i was at my grandmothers all yesterday fa ma kan 3ndy wagt this is a short post but im writing a follow up right now. enjoy

Nouf: sure 
5aled: asshole
Nouf: what? 
5aled: is that a good word to describe me for what I did. I was rude and I did cross the line. 
Nouf: it’s a perfect word

Yeah that’s just me and 5aled we have stupid fight but make up real quick.

5aled: let’s walk out by the pool. 
Nouf: okay 

we were walking right on the edge, any wrong step and you fall.

5aled: so how about a fall out.
Nouf: what? 

He answered by half pushing me to the pool. 
T3arfoon when you lose your balance and you’re trying to hold on so you won’t fall. That’s what happened. I tried to hold myself from laughing.

Nouf: 5aled I’ll fall.

A pair of arms wrapped around me.

Bader: im here to catch you. Agool 5aled came help me because if I move well both fall. 

5aled: okay 

Bader grabbed his arm and somehow 5aled ended up in the pool. 
Swiftly bader pulled me away. 

5aled: you two are paying for this.

I laughed so hard I was thankful for bader’s arms around. 

7anan: mama tgool all of you in and badoor your leaving.

Bader: (in my ears) ignore her; go apply a fresh layer of lipstick. 
Nouf: bader it will show and to be honest no one has to know.
Bader: ill be waiting by the car. 

I waited for a few minutes. I was really unsure about it. 
Nouf: bader?
He lowered the window. 
Bader: come in 
Nouf: what about your mum. 
Bader: I told her I wanted to talk to you for a little while.

I’m 3 years younger (14)

I searched the whole place trying to find them, and eventually I did, as soon as my eyes found hers. 7anan smiled wickedly. I felt uneasy and bader noticed that.

Bader: nouf what’s wrong?

Nouf: nothing just a little thirsty. Want something to drink?

Bader: no thank.

I walked to the kitchen and started drinking the first water bottle my hands touched.

7anan: hello nouf, enjoying your time?

Nouf: I should be asking you this. After all you are the guest.

7anan: nonsense. After all it is my second home. So this guy of yours, bader he’s something.

Nouf: stay away from him.

7anan: how could you think of me that way? I’m family.

Nouf: I don’t trust you and you know it.

7anan: why? Is it because I turned your stupid friends against you using lies and half truth? Or is it because I broke that vase and told grandma it’s you? Or that other time when I stole money from our mum and blamed it on you? You want to know what I think.

Nouf: what?

7anan: I think you hate me because everyone believed me, and you are the one that got in trouble.

I finished my water and threw it in the garbage.

Nouf: I you think of doing anything I’ll kill you.

I was almost out when I heard her say.

7anan: I’ll destroy both of you before you could.

Bader: what took you saw long.

Nouf: I’m sorry.

Bader: you don’t look so good. How about some fresh air?

Nouf: that would be great.

Bader: I’ll go ask your mom.

Nouf: okay.

He left looking for my mum. 7anan was staring at me laughing.

Bader: you might want to get a jacket

Nouf: it’s by the door.

Bader: come on.

We got in his car.

Bader: so are you going to tell me who was with you in the kitchen?

Nouf: that was 7anan, my sister.

Bader: you have a sister?

Nouf: my parents were having some rough times. My mum didn’t want a child at that time, but my dad forced her. A few months later my dad left. When 7anan was born my mum didn’t want her, so she gave her to my dad’s mum. She lives with them, for some reason she hates me. She tries to get me in trouble every time for everything, and just now she……….

Bader: nouf, what did she say?

Nouf: she has her eyes on you.

Bader: she can’t have me. I’m under your spell.

That made me smile.

Bader: you have a beautiful smile, not as pretty as hers, but still beautiful.

Nouf: bader….

Bader: you know I’m joking, and besides I love YOU. So don’t worry. In my eyes you are the only one that’s perfect.

Nouf: I love you to.

Bader: do I get a kiss with that.

Nouf: you do realize you just messed up the whole moment.

Bader: yeah I know. So, how about this kiss?

Nouf: when we get back to the house.

Bader: how about before I leave.

Nouf: we’ll see.

Bader: well your house is 2 minutes away.

We we’re quite till we reached my house. I was truly happy, bader is truly great. I mean he understands, and he did care. I’m getting attached to him really fast, and I’m worried about what 7anan will do.

Bader managed to take my mind of her for the whole night. People started to leave; I was walking around looking for bader when I saw 5aled.

5aled: can I talk to you?

im 3 years younger (13)

sorry couldn't reply on your comments, and sorry if its to short im going out in less than an hour but since i got 4 comments on the last one i had to post for you guys. oh before you start reading i might spend the night at my grandmothers house so i might not be able to post. if not im terribly sorry.

enjoy;************

5aled: w lek 3ain yay 3ndah, w enty omech ra’9yah eneh ohwa hny.

Nouf: my mum invited him.

5aled: who are you anyways?

Bader: I’ll be her fiancé as soon as she graduates.

5aled: but she hasn’t yet. And from what I know nouf would never agree to be hanging around with you if nothing official happened.

Bader: well, I think you would love to say goodbye before you leave because by tomorrow we will be heading to the airport, together.

5aled: you know nouf you changed a lot.

Nouf: I didn’t. You did. Just because of what I told you before you became mad at me.

5aled: because you didn’t care about my feelings.

Nouf: and I told you I don’t see you that way. As for bader, I am getting married to him.

5aled: I wish you a happy life.

He walked away. I felt like crying, but then I remembered bader standing right there, so I crashed into his arms.

Nouf: thank god for water-proof make-up.

Bader: you would look even prettier with smudged make up.

Nouf: so you ready for tomorrow.

Bader: I can’t wait.

Nouf: about 5aled……

Bader: I’m sorry. I didn’t mean what I said I was just jealous.

Nouf: why?

Bader: because I thought he could win you over, because he got to see you before me, and because he lives right next door.

Nouf: no one can take you from me. After all you are under my spell.

Bader: come on let’s go back in.

My whole family was there. Bader had a blast. He got a long pretty well with everyone but 5aled. I also felt another pair of eyes staring at me and bader. I felt 5aled’s pain radiate throughout the place, but those other eyes, they radiated envy and hatred. I searched the whole place trying to find them, and eventually I did, as soon as my eyes found his/her’s, ……… smiled wickedly.

now think is it a girl or a guy and what do you think the name is. write them in your comments.

im 3 years younger (12)

i'm happy. i would like to thank you guys for your comments they made my day. this post is dedicated to all my readers. enjoy

Nouf: thank you.

Bader: you see that’s exactly what I love about you. You are different. Any other girl would have blushed or even giggled, but you gave a solid answer, a plain thank you.

Nouf: I got used to answer that way when a guy complements or says something nice but in a flirty way.

Bader: I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that.

Nouf: you really need to get past your jealousy.

Bader: I can’t, that’s one thing you might hate about me.

Nouf: it’s somehow good, because if you’re jealous that means you care.

Bader: so you understand now that I do care.

Nouf: I never doubted that.

Bader: (laughing) you have a really nice way with words.

Nouf: I know.

Bader: at least try to be modest.

Nouf: honey, if you want me you take the whole package.

Bader: I don’t think I have……

Nouf: oh, we reached my house.

Bader: um yeah.

Nouf: so, I’ll see you tomorrow.

Bader: tomorrow?

Nouf: yeah we have a gathering and my mum texted me to remind me to tell you.

Bader: thank god you didn’t forget.

Nouf: I know it might kill you if you don’t see me.

(Bader laughs)

Bader: bye.

Nouf: bye.

Bader: nouf wait.

Nouf: what?

Bader: don’t I get a hug.

Well, after today I won’t mind. So I just went with it.

Nouf: muuuuuuuuum, I’m back.

Mum: did you have fun?

Nouf: yes, a little.

Mum: it’s getting late and you look tired. Go to sleep, we have a very busy day tomorrow.

Nouf: goodnight.

(Next day)

I woke up pretty late. When I got down my mum was fussing about everything.

I ate a quick meal, and then went up to get ready because it was way past the afternoon. When I finished from my shower, I put my bathrobe on and stood in my walk-in closet. I decided on a Burberry dress, with black louboutins. I curled my hair into big loops. I applied the usual make-up, eyeliner, eye-shadow, blusher, and of course red lipstick. I sprayed some perfume w 7a6ait dhn 3ood then headed down for some of the guests have arrived.

One of my meighbors, 5aled, was staring at me in a very weird way. I motioned fro him to follow me out side.

Nouf: 5aled, what’s wrong.

5aled: you tell me.

Nouf: what do you mean?

5aled: tell me who was the guy you were hugging last night in front of your house?

Nouf: I…..
