(((Dør For Deg-Ezzari)))

The night sky overhead contained a vivid mix of golden starlight and swirls of deep blue, awakening Elias’ senses as he fell in step next to Laila, walking up the stairs leading to her friend Anja’s apartment. She was wearing a crimson v-neck sweater and simple black skirt. Elias was speechless when he first saw her an hour ago, his mouth had literally fallen open in awe.

In an effort to be completely present in this moment, he closed his eyes and breathed in the fresh air around him, cataloguing each and every detail.

Even dreams didn’t feel this good.

Elias had been here once before, as he recalled that day four months ago when he’d walked into a strange and unfamiliar apartment to pick up his sister’s jacket, unaware his life was about to change. Once again face to face with the white door, Elias rang the bell. An amusingly odd feeling came over him, as if he was reliving that moment. He almost expected to hear classical music drifting in from a far off room.

The door swung open in front of him and a flash of blond hair peeked through. Anja squealed in delight as she took in Laila standing there carrying bags of food in one hand and her musical equipment in the other.

“LAILA!! You’re here!! I’m so glad you made it. I have some of the equipment you dropped off earlier sort of set up in the back corner of the living room, so you can just drop the rest of the stuff near that area. I’m so excited that you’re DJ-ing the party tonight.” Anja was practically bouncing up and down on the balls of her feet.

Laila grinned up at her friend lovingly. “I’m so excited, I haven’t spun tables in a while so it’ll be interesting to see how it goes.”

Elias was surprised once again to find yet another hobby Laila had picked up, as he learned earlier, on her travels visiting her dad overseas. She continued to surprise him everyday.

“Oh hey, Elias right?” Anja said, glancing back at Elias who walked up the stairs behind Laila.

He nodded, smiling at her. The initial embarrassment from his awkward pick up attempt a few months ago, all but gone.

“Come on in.” Anja opened the front door wider, allowing them to step through. “Oh also watch out for my cat, he’s a real asshole and he likes to walk right in front of people’s feet, trying to trip them.”

“Oh I don't think I saw a cat last time I was here, what’s his name?” Elias asked.

“Karl.”

Elias frowned slightly at the strange name before he strolled through the entryway, the cozy atmosphere of the small space immediately wrapping around him like a warm blanket. He glanced at Laila to his left who was rearranging the music supplies in her hands, eyes scanning the room for the corner Anja had set up for her.

As she spotted it, she beamed and nudged Elias before saying, “I’m going to go set up.”

He nodded and gave her his best look of encouragement.

She wandered off into the crowd and Elias fell back, searching for the guys and Sana. Surprisingly his gaze fell on a friendly face in the crowd; it was Isabel.

Elias hadn’t seen or heard from her since they had hooked up. He recoiled internally as he thought about that regretful night. Elias had made so many mistakes the past few weeks, but he heavily regretted hurting Isabel.

His old self would have considered turning around and avoiding her, but he didn't want to be that person anymore. Elias hunched his shoulders up resolute in his intentions and strode over to her standing with a red cup in her hands.

Isabel’s face brightened instantly when she saw Elias, giving him a warm, amiable smile.

“Hey Isabel, how have you been?” he asked in genuine interest.

“You’re so sweet, I’m great. Never been better,” she replied and he believed her words. Her bright eyes were full of joy.

“I wanted to apologize again for being such a dick the last time I saw you,” Elias looked down nervously at his feet before meeting her eyes again.

“Elias you don’t have to keep apologizing. In fact I’m glad that we didn't work out. Because if it weren’t for that, I never would have met Trine. She’s amazing, we’ve been seeing each other for a few weeks now.”

She?

Elias did not see that coming.

But good for Isabel. He was happy that she had clearly moved on, it had been weighing on his conscience for a while now.

“That’s awesome. So is she here tonight?” Elias asked, looking around even though he had no idea what Trine looked like.

Isabel nodded, she turned to her right and pointed out a tall girl, close to Sana’s age with long brunette hair. Isabel waved to her across the room, and Trine smiled back at her, affectionately.

Elias turned back to Isabel and said, “Seriously I’m really happy for you Isabel.”

“Thank you! And what about you? Are you seeing anyone?” she asked.

He blushed as he unconsciously searched for Laila in the throng of people. Finally, he spotted her loose flyaway curls a few feet away, moving around frantically as she tested out her equipment. “I am. Her name’s Laila.”

“Oh, I think I know her, she used to be friends with those Pepsi Max girls? Trine used to hang out with them too, but she left because she said they were terrible friends. Trine always spoke fondly of Laila though,” Isabel mentioned.

He grinned hearing that. “Yeah she’s one of a kind.” Elias looked up and spotted Sana in the crowd, mingling with Adam and Mutta. “It was great talking with you, I’ll see you later. I definitely want to meet Trine, she sounds cool,” he said.

“You too, for sure I’ll introduce you guys, talk to you later.” Isabel waved bye to him and made her way over to where Trine was standing, placing a kiss on her cheek softly.

(((The Next Episode-Dr. Dre)))

At the start of the new song, the bass shook the walls as everyone got on their feet, bodies pressed close to each other, letting loose.

It seemed like Laila had gotten her tables set up. As he glanced at where she was standing behind the turntables, he couldn't help but notice the intense look of concentration written on her face.

Elias made his way over to where Sana was standing, nodding to Mutta and Adam.

“Congrats bro on your editing internship!! I’m so proud of you,” Sana added, punching him lightly in the shoulder.

“Thanks Sana.”

“You got it?!!” Mutta exclaimed.

Elias nodded, unable to contain the grin that spread across his lips. “Bro, that’s amazing,” Adam said.

“Thanks Adam!” Elias gazed around the room. “Where’s Yousef and Mikael?” he asked suddenly.

Sana rolled her eyes and said, “Where do you think?”

When he didn't answer she continued. “They’ve only been here five minutes and they already challenged each other to a dance off,” Sana said half exasperated, half amused.

He turned to look over at the crowd in the middle of the dance floor and sure enough he could see them already in full swing. Yousef was doing a passionate variation of hip-hop street dancing while Mikael was breakdancing furiously. All the while, the group of people around them were hyping them up.

At that moment, Chris came up to them, grabbing Mutta’s hand as she said, “Come on, let’s dance!” she said shaking her hips, dragging him into the congregation in the center of the room.

Adam went and joined Yousef and Mikael on the dancefloor, jumping up and down, pumping his head.

“I’m dating a literal five year old,” she half shouted over the music as it got louder.

“You knew what you were signing up for when you agreed to date him,” Elias countered.

“True.”

(((Wild Thoughts-DJ Khaled)))

Elias glanced up at Laila who smiled back at him. She slid the mega headphones wrapped around her ears off her head, and stepped down from behind the tables, making her way over to him.

“Aren’t you in charge of the music for the whole night?” Elias teased as she stood in front of him, sliding her hand in his.

“I’m allowed to slip away for one song,” she replied. “Besides, don’t you want to dance with me?” She put on an endearing look that he couldn’t resist. His heart beat wildly in his chest as his eyes met hers.

All at once, they both fell into the rhythm of the song, hips swaying in time with the beat. They moved together as one, falling into step with each other.

As he spun Laila around in his arms, he couldn't help but feel incredibly lucky for everything and everyone in his life.

Looking around at his sister, at his friends, at this amazing group of people around him, Elias knew he had so much to be thankful for.

Hey, I was thinking about a drabble with Elaila if you don't mind and if it's okay for you, I understand if you can't 🙈 who comes up with cheesy pick up lines or who draws little tattoos on the other with a pen or anything else is fine, what you want to choose 🙈 also I wanted to tell you that I love all the drabbles you made 😍❤

Hiii!!

So I wrote this pretty quickly and I’m not sure if it’s any good. Also this is the first time I write something about Elaila so…they might be a little out of character. 

Hope you like it though!

—————-x———-

Elias isleaning on the wall when she walks past him. She doesn’t see him, she’s focusedon her phone, probably sending a text to someone. She’s wearing a whiteturtleneck and white jeans and Elias literally can’t take his eyes off her.

Before shegets any further he yells at her: “Hey girl, what time do you have to be backin heaven?”

He sees howa few girls turn to look at him, but his eyes are still focused on her. Sheturns around with her eyebrows furrowed and widens her eyes when she sees him.Elias’ lips curve into a playful smirk as soon as she lays eyes on him. Laila’sanswer to this is rolling her eyes and turning around to re-start her waythrough Nissen’s yard.

Not wastingany second Elias starts walking, reaching her in a few steps. He walks by her,his eyes never leaving her face. He knows she’s aware of his presence.

“I’m sorryto bother you, but there must be something wrong with my eyes, I can’t takethem off you.”

That makesLaila stop dead on her tracks and look at him, her eyes narrowed, her lipspressed forming a line.

“I have aboyfriend.” She says and tries to continue her way but Elias takes her hand andmakes her look at him.

“Oh,really? And is your boyfriend as smooth as I am?” He asks raising an eyebrow ather,  closing the distance between themso their bodies are practically pressed against each other.

“Hmm…”Laila makes it look like she’s really thinking about her next words. “He’s aslame as you are.”

“Wow…thatwas harsh.” He says laughing a little bit.

“Yeah?”Laila whispers. She places her hands on his chest and leans in a little bit.

“Yeah.”Elias whispers back cupping her face with his hands and pulling her closerstopping when there are only a few inches between their lips. He looks at hereyes and then at her lips, he can feel Laila’s breath. Looking back at her eyeshe says one more pick up line: “Hey babe, your lips look lonely. Would theylike to meet mine?”

Lailasnorts and rolls her eyes. That was probably the cheesiest line she’s everheard.

“Shut up.”She grabs him by the collar of his t-shirt and pulls him in for a kiss.

Heinstantly kisses her back, lowering his hands from her face to her waist, pullingher closer. The kiss is interrupted by some cheers from a couple of girls.

As theypull apart, Elias is not surprised to find out that the mentioned girls are Eva,Chris and Vilde. Noora and Sana are with them too. Noora is just laughing atthe situation while Sana is shaking her head in disapproval.

“Do you seewhat I have to live with every day?” Sana tells her friends in an annoyed tone.But on the inside she’s happy to see her brother happy. Laila is a great girland ever since they started dating a few months ago, Elias has been happierthan ever. It doesn’t mean that she’s into their pda at school every time Eliascomes to pick Laila up.

“Oh shutup, sis. This is better than you and Yousef making heart eyes at each other allthe time.” Elias shouts at Sana as he puts his arms around Laila and hugs her,kissing her cheek.

Sana rollsher eyes and turns around to leave, followed by her friends.

Elias giveshis full attention back to Laila and smiles widely at her.

“Hellogirlfriend.”

“Hello lameboyfriend.” Laila teases him giving him a quick peck on the lips.

“You lovemy cheesy lines.” Elias says with a smug smile as he tenderly boops her nosewith his finger.

Lailascrunches her nose in a cute way and wraps her arms around Elias’ neck.

“Nah…notreally. But, I kind of love you so…” She shrugs and bites her lip trying tohold the smile.

“Hmm, I canwork with that. I kind of love you too.”
