Chapter 46

           

            Today is their wedding day and the couples are more than thrilled to fnally start their lives together. The parents have been at the hall for quite some time now making final preparations and the adjustments for the additional two couples to be wed today as well. Now since none of the couples wanted to miss the other's marriage, they had to make the mandap even larger than originally planned. There are only a few hours left before the ceremony is to begin.

Anyhow, the girls are currently at the hall as well, but in the rooms upstairs sitting with their blouses on. The girls are surrounded by make-up artists, who are making all five of the girls look like goddesses that came straight down from heaven. After all the makeup has been completed, it's now the hairstylists job to finish up their appearance. Kripa asks her hairstylist to style her hair in loose curls and leave it down. Anjali asks her stylist to tie half of her hair and leave the rest down, along with styling her ponytail. Prachi asks for her hair to be tied up in a bun. Mukti asks for her hair to be styled down. Aaliya asks to be styled up in a loose bun. Finally the makeup artists and hairstylists all leave to work for the Khanna and Sharma Mansion for Naina and Gayatri to arrive. Meanwhile, the girl's begin admiring each other along with squealing in delight. The girls decide to wear their lenghas because right now all they have on is the blouses and their pajamas. Yes, the girls are sitting in their pajamas a couple hours before the wedding. Anyways they plan to add their accessories later after they have their outfits on.

Kripa wears a dark blue lengha with a beige blouse and blue border, with lots of white gold embroidery, the blouse also has a deep back with a few ties. Anjali wears a green lengha with a beige blouse and green border, with lots of white gold embroidery, the blouse also has a deep back with a few ties. Prachi wears a red lengha with a beige blouse and red border, with lots of white gold embroidery, the blouse also has a deep back with a few ties. Kripa, Prachi, and Anjali had picked the same outfits, only in different colors so that they would coordinate nicely' well that and the girl's just loved the design. Mukti wears a light pink lengha with lots of silver embroidery. Aaliya wears a yellow orange lengha with a lot of golden embroidery. The girls then begin applying their accessories like churiyaan and the rest of their jewelery. When they are done, they look absolutely magnificent and gorgeous beyond belief.

The parents leave towards home to get ready, well Naina and Gayatri urgently have to meet with the stylists to get ready. The girls stay in the upstairs room of the hall in the meantime. The parents are planning to come with the boys and the close family friends who are meeting them at their homes. So now begins the waiting period for the girls, waiting to be called down for the ceremony and waiting for their prince charmings' to arrive.

 

**********

Now lets see what the boys have been up to while the girls were getting ready. Ah, well they seem to be up in the Khanna Mansion shoving each other to get a better view of themselves in the mirror. Why not go to another mirror is the obvious question, but then again the guys aren't really thinking straight today' they seem to be really nervous. Angad turns to Kavya saying, 'Kavya get out of my way man, I gotta fix my hair! By the way I don't think even God himself can help you now, cuz you look totally hopeless!' Kavya retorts, 'Dude look who is talking!! Mohawk boy!!' Angad fumes, 'Well maybe if you get out my way I wouldn't look like Mohawk boy!! AND I DON'T LOOK LIKE MOHAWK BOY!' Neev laughs watching them argue over their appearance and he gets ready quite calmly. Finally all the boys pull their acts together and help each other out in fixing their appearance to make the guys look absolutely handsome! Neev asks, 'Are Josh and Prem meeting us at the hall?' Angad nods and then breaks out into laughter as he hears Kavya snorting trying to hide his own amusement. Angad roars, 'I can't believe those two idiots got married last night! You should have heard the way Josh was talking about marriage. HAHA he kept comparing marriage to some kind of imprisonment and then he gets married himself, BEFORE US!!' Kavya then laughs, 'Yea and on top of that Prem remembered to get married in court!!! What's wrong with him man, I think they were both on drugs! They're both crazy!' Neev laughs, 'Anyways chalo acha hua! We can all get married together now!' All three boys start laughing again and head downstairs to meet their parents to leave.

Angad has worn a beige sherwani with some dark blue and white gold embroidery, along with a dark blue dupatta. Kavya has worn a beige sherwani with some green and white gold embroidery, along with a green dupatta. Neev has worn a beige sherwani with some red and white gold embroidery, along with a red dupatta. Yes, the girls made the boys wear the same clothes only different colors, which match with the girl's outfits. Still, there is only one word to describe what the guys look like and that is H-O-T, HOT! As soon as the boys make their way downstairs, they set out to leave for the hall where their lady loves wait for their arrival impatiently.

Dilip and Naina leave in one car, followed by Surya and Gayatri in another car. Angad leaves in his convertible, Kavya follows Angad in his convertible, Neev follows Kavya in his own convertible, then followed by family friends. In minutes they arrive at the hall. The boys stop their cars at the steps and they come out of their cars in style, making their way inside, while throwing their keys at the valet to park. Poor valet gets smacked in the eye thrice, by Angad, then Kavya, and then finally Neev. The valet grunts, 'Stupid rich kids' and leaves to go park their fancy cars.

The boys follow their parents to the hall and wait at the gate. Their soon to be mother-in-law's perform the aarthi to offer them their blessings. Then the boys enter the hall and are left speechless. There are so many decorated tables with candles lit in the centerpieces. The whole hall is decorated with candles, lights, ribbons, and flowers. It is definitely a grand hall, that's for sure. In the center of the hall, there is an enormous mandap, filled with flowers, satin cloths, and candles. The mandap could easily fit five couples and their parents. It is perfect because all the couples would be able to watch the other's get married and then take their place when it is their turn to tie the knot. It is definitely an auspicious day, the most perfect day. The guys watch their mothers, make their way upstairs to the girls. The guys then see Josh and Prem at the door, faced with an aarti from their mother-in-law, as well. Prem is wearing a beige sherwani with a light pink dupatta and Josh is wearing a beige sherwani with a yellow-orange dupatta. The guys are all taken to the mandap as the hall starts to fill up with guests, family friends, business associates, and the socially elite. It is undeniably a spectacular social event, after all Dilip and Surya are quite famous for their fashion house, Khash.

Just then, Naina and Gayatri escort Kripa, Anjali, and Prachi to the mandap. Mukti and Aaliya follow with their own mothers to the mandap. The girls continuously avoid looking at their beloveds and the girls' faces are hidden with the dupatta. The fact that the guys can't see the girls' face makes them a little disheartened. As you can tell, the guys are quite eager to look at their angelic faces on their wedding day. The girls finally make their way towards the mandap and sit beside their prince charmings. As the pandit continues to chant, the couples can't help but look forward to a life filled with happiness together and hope to have no obstacles in the life together.

Since Neev and Prachi are the first to be wed, Surya comes forward and ties their dupatta's together as the pandit continue to chant. Soon it is time for Neev and Prachi to stand up for the pheras. Neev and Prachi circle around the fire, promising each other a life full of happiness and absolute faith in one another. Neev has a huge smile on his face and Prachi can't seem to stop herself from blushing. At the end of the seventh phera, Neev can't seem to contain his excitement and yells out in happiness, 'YAY!!!' This is followed by dead silence, even the pandit looks at Neev weirdly. The color rises in his cheeks from embarrassment. Everyone breaks out into laughter at Neev's excitement and embarrassed look. Neev shyly places the garland on Prachi, but as soon as Prachi reaches over, Neev keeps moving his head in all directions refusing to cooperate. Prachi pouts and folds her arms in annoyance. Neev then holds his ears and bends his head like a good boy, so Prachi can put the garland on him. Neev then places the mangalsutra around Prachi's neck and applies sindoor in her maang. Neev finally looks at Prachi's gorgeous face full of innocence. She looked so beautiful as she stared deeply into his eyes. She is finally Mrs. Prachi Neev Khanna.

Next was Kavya and Anjali and they both seemed a little high on life and super giddy. As the pandit chanted, Kavya kept playing with Anjali's fingers, while all she could do was helplessly blush. She definitely fit the profile of a blushing bride. Dilip came forward and tied Anjali and Kavya's dupattas together. Kavya and Anjali stand up for pheras as the pandit finishes and Kavya kept yanking at his own dupatta so he could play with hers. When the pheras are finally complete, Kavya and Anjali exchange garlands. Kavya puts the mangalsutra on Anjali's neck silently whispering, 'You're beautiful!' Anjali blushes as she remembers when he had whispered that the night they went to Goa for the wedding and the boys came over to watch a movie, then Kavya had picked her up in his strong arms and whispered the same phrase in her ear thinking she was asleep. Oh, Anjali is a sure goner because Kavya is to charming for his own good. Anjali sighs in bliss as Kavya applies the sindoor in her maang. She is finally Ms. Anjali Kavya Sharma.

Then it is Angad and Kripa's turn to become one. Angad can't seem to stop himself from grinning, then again he definitely had many reasons to be happy about and life couldn't be more perfect for him. Kripa is feeling too happy herself; she is marrying her childhood best friend and the love of her life. The only thought residing in her mind is, isn't life just full of surprises? Kripa starts to grin while sitting next to Angad as she feels him trace patterns on her exposed midriff. Kripa glances at Angad and when he sees the same naughtiness in her eyes, he could hardly control the urge to pick her up, dump her in the car, and drive home as fast as he could' but somehow he managed. The pandit asks the couple to stand and take pheras around the fire, so they both obediently stood and did as told. They could barely concentrate on what was going on mainly because they couldn't stop thinking about their futures together. Angad soon finds himself placing the garland around her and feels her placing one on him as well. He then places the mangalsutra around her delicate neck and looking into her eyes. He can't stop himself from saying, 'Krips your in trouble tonight?' Kripa curiously whispers, 'Why?' Angad whispers back as he fills her maang with sindoor, 'Cuz you look dam* good!' Kripa smirks arrogantly, while Angad grins seeing the attitude in her. Oh, he sure loves Kripa for that.  She is finally Ms. Kripa Angad Khanna.

Now Josh and Aaliya are called forward to get married'again! Josh and Aaliya sit through the chants as they get flashes of last night's wedding flooding their minds. Josh looks towards Aaliya as he starts to remember bits and pieces, while Aaliya looks back at him as she remembers the same thing. Josh almost laughs out loud remembering their drunken state. They are both asked to stand and go around the fire, while the rest of the people throw rose petals. As Josh places the mangalsutra around her neck he can't stop himself from staring at Aaliya. It isn't like a couple seconds worth of staring either because Josh is out of it pretty good. Aaliya keeps giving Josh a gentle push, then a gentle, poke, a hard poke, all the way to the point where she has to slap his arm quite loudly because for a minute straight he would not budge from his spot! It was like he was playing statue or something. Everyone starts laughing at how Aaliya had to beat Josh to get him to pay attention. Josh quickly applies sindoor in her maang feeling really embarrassed for being totally out of it and having Aaliya hit him that hard as she did. And she is Mrs. Aaliya Josh Kapoor' again.

Finally it is Prem and Mukti, who are to tie the knot' again! Prem seems rather nervous and Kavya smirks seeing Prem's panicky state. Kavya bends towards Prem's ear and whispers, 'Want some coke, I'm sure it will get rid of your nervousness like last time' and maybe you might remember what happened last night' Kavya winks at Prem and then stands back in his original spot like nothing happened. As soon as Prem registers what Kavya said, he yells out loud, 'NOOOO!!' Everyone looks at Prem shocked for his little outburst, while Prem laughs nervously, 'Nothing panditji keep going!' Mukti laughs because she heard Kavya and Prem glares at Kavya. The whole gang has heard Kavya and they all start laughing loudly remembering their graduation when Kavya gave Prem coke with alcohol, which caused Prem to fall off the stage. Oh boy, a drunk Prem at the wedding' perhaps it would jog his memory into remembering the happenings of last night's drunken adventure. Prem and Mukti finish their pheras, placing the mangalsutra, and applying the sindoor. And she is Mrs. Mutki Prem Singhania' again.

And so the gang ends up getting married to the love of their lives on the same day. It is a great day for all. The guests congratulate the couples and wish them their blessings. After the marriages have finally concluded, dinner is served for all. The couples now sit on the stage. The girls turn to their husbands and start whining about their hunger. The guys wave over their mothers and ask to send over food. Soon the boys start feeding the girls dinner and vice versa.

Later on, the parents come to the stage and start the rasam for the bidhai. After the girls empty the entire rice trays, Kripa turns to Kavya and starts crying thinking about how she won't live in the same house as her brother or her parents. Kripa and Prachi throw their arms around Kavya, while he hugs them both with silent tears in his own eyes thinking about his childhood with his two naughty sisters. Kripa and Prachi soon find themselves sobbing in their parents arms while Angad and Neev look at each other weirdly because of their overly dramatic wives. Angad whispers to Neev, 'Did they forget that we live just next door to their parents?' Neev shrugs, 'I don't get this man, I mean they are acting like they won't see them again'' Angad and Neev then find themselves staring at a very teary eyed Anjali and finally understand. They both hug their little sister Anjali, with wet tears in their eyes remembering their own childhood. Anjali sobs, 'I'm gonna miss you two!' Angad and Neev start wailing like Kripa and Prachi bawling, 'US TOO!' Kripa and Prachi look at each other and start laughing, watching their cute crybabies. Anjali continues to cry in her parents' arms and then smiles through her tears seeing Kavya's smiling face. The gang watches Mukti and Aaliya bawling in their mother's arms and then slowly being led to Josh and Prem's cars. The girls are all escorted into their husband's convertibles and drive off to their new homes, leaving their childhood behind.

In Neev and Prachi's car, Prachi continues to look out the window because she finds herself too shy for words. Neev doesn't exactly know what to say, but soon sees Prachi's tear brimmed eyes. Neev just leans over and kisses her forehead in a comforting manner since she is sad to leave her parents' home. Prachi feels touched by Neev's level of understanding and whispers, 'Thanks' Neev says, 'Jaan I never want to see tears in your eyes, ever! Main vaada karta hoon ke tumhari zindagi ko khusiyon se baardonga' Prachi smiles looking into Neev's assuring eyes. She replies, 'Neev jabse tum meri zindagi mein aaye ho, tabse tumne mujhe voh sab khushiyan di hai jo maine kabhi nahin soocha tha ke mujhe kabhi milegi! Thank you for coming into my life and giving me your friendship and your love!' Neev smiles, 'Waise thank you toh mujhe kehna chaiye! Tumne mujhe pyaar ka ehsaas dilaya! Tumhare bina mein kuch nahin Prachi, kuch bhi nahin!' Prachi just lays her head onto his strong shoulders and can't help, but smile at their cute and innocent love. Soon enough they reach the Khanna House.

**********

In Kavya and Anjali's car, Kavya keeps grabbing Anjali's dupatta as an excuse for grabbing the brake. Kavya grins because he seems to be annoying Anjali. Since the dupatta is almost off her, Anjali snaps, 'Kavya stop pulling my dupatta, nahin toh'' Kavya turns to Anjali grining, 'Nahin toh kya? What are you gonna do Anju?' Anjali is confused because she can't muster up a good enough threat. Kavya grins seeing her confusion, while she just pouts and sits back into the seat crossing her arms not knowing what else to do. Kavya laughs seeing her mad, he actually missed making her mad. Kavya whispers, 'I love making you mad!' Anjali looks at him shocked, 'You what? You like making me mad?' Kavya nods, 'Of course, why do you think I annoyed you for so many years?' Anjali mumbles, 'I just thought you had a death wish!' Kavya laughs seeing her still angry, 'It was because you look cute!' Anjali asks again shocked, 'Cute? I look cute when I'm angry?' Kavya romantically purrs in her ear, 'Mhmm' Anjali gets shivers as he does this and asks, 'Wait, so you enjoyed fighting with me when we were younger?' Kavya laughs, 'Of course! I love the way you nose wrinkles in anger! You look so cute!' Anjali blushes and looks out the window, not knowing where else to look. Kavya laughs as they reach the Sharma House.

 

**********

            In Angad and Kripa's car, Angad keeps randomly pointing out the window so that Kripa could turn her head and he could peck her cheek. Kripa grins, 'A little eager aren't we?' Angad's mouths drops open at her comment, 'You did not just say that'' Kripa scratches her head and replies naughtily, 'Umm I'm pretty' no wait POSITIVELY sure that I did!!' Angad stops that car, mumbling, 'That's it!' He reaches over and grabs Kripa's arms pulling her roughly closer to himself. Kripa looks at him bewildered asking seductively while tracing a finger down his face, 'What's the problem Khanna?' Angad nearly bites her finger and comes closer to her lips slightly grazing his over hers. Kripa closes her eyes feeling a fiery passion erupting within her, but soon finds herself being jerked back into her seat and Angad continuing to drive the car as if nothing happened. Angad smirks seeing her desire and sees her mouth hanging open. Angad pushes her mouth closed saying, 'Whoa talk about bad breath Krips!'  Kripa looks at him in utter shock, not being able to come up with a comeback herself. This was so not what she had expected, first of all she expected a heated and passionate kiss, second of all something resembling to a compliment NOT an insult! Kripa grins in delight as she remembers what she is planning for tonight. With that thought, they both arrive at the Khanna House.

            At the Khanna House, Dilip and Naina are waiting outside to welcome their daughters to their new home. As soon as Neev and Prachi arrive, Naina stands with a puja thali and does the aarthi on the couple. Prachi then walks into her new home knocking the pot of rice with her foot. Soon after Angad and Kripa arrive, then Naina does the aarth again along with having Kripa knock over the rice as well. The two very happy newlyweds make their way inside. Naina kisses her two new family members and wishes them lots of happiness. Dilip blesses Kripa and Prachi along with yanking his sons ears demanding, 'Meri dono bahu ka khayal rakhna, nahin toh main danda leke maroonga!' Angad and Neev cry in pain while Kripa and Prachi laugh. After lots of discussions and little rituals, Naina escorts Prachi and Kripa to their new rooms, while the men continue to talk.

 

**********

            At the Sharma House, Surya and Gayatri stand outside and wait for Kavya and Anjali to arrive. As soon as the two arrive, Gayatri performs the aarthi on the couple and has Anjali knock over the pot full of rice as she makes her way inside. Gayatri hugs Anjali and Kavya hoping they only have happiness in the future and never have to face much grief in their lives. Surya slaps Kavya's back saying, 'Finally hamare bete ne koi aacha kaam kiya hai!' Kavya laughs, 'What dad, aap toh abhi se Anju meri shikayat kare hain!' Surya hugs Anjali saying, 'Main toh apne bete ki pasand ki tareef kara tha!' Kavya laughs, 'Voh toh hai!' Soon Gayatri takes Anjali up to her new room as Kavya and Surya talk.

 

Chapter  47

 

In Neev's room, Prachi sits on the bed with rose petals all around her. There are candles lit around the whole room. It looks completely enchanting. She can't help, but feel really nervous, so nervous in fact that she couldn't even move a muscle. Prachi hugs her knees and lays her head on top of her knees thinking about her childhood. A silly smile appears on her lips thinking about her past, her past with Neev.

Suddenly she hears the doorknob turn and anxiety fills through her again. Neev enters the room and narrows his eyes as he catches the smile fading from her face. Prachi quickly looks away, trying to avoid his eyes. She can't stop the blush from rising in her cheeks. Neev closes the door, while grinning quite widely at the sight. Neev looks upon the bed again, with Prachi looking nothing less than a vision of divine beauty. Neev slowly makes his way towards the bed and sits next Prachi noticing the gunghaat is still on her head. He removes the gunghaat and looks onto her angelic face. Prachi keeps her eyes downcast as Neev holds Prachi's chin to make her look up. Neev sees Prachi trying really hard to keep her eyes tightly shut. Neev whispers, 'Prachi look at me'' Slowly Prachi opens her eyes and looks into his captivating eyes.

Then Neev asks, 'You're okay na'about leaving home?' Prachi smiles at his concerned face. Prachi nods and shyly says, 'You look handsome Neev' Neev grins and whispers, 'Oh really? Well, you look' you look like a bandaria!' Prachi gasps in horror and slaps his arm, 'NEEV!! Jao main tumse baat nahin karti!' Prachi folds her arms and turns away while Neev laughs at her childish behavior. Neev whispers into Prachi's ear sweetly, 'I am sorry jaan!' Prachi smiles and grabs his cheek exclaiming, 'Aww Neev you're too cute!' Neev exclaims in pain, 'Prachi stop it na!' Neev starts to tickle Prachi, which makes her leave his cheek.

Prachi falls flat onto the bed and Neev hugs her body, resting his head near her ear. He hugs her closer and murmurs into her ear, 'Aaj main bahut khush hoon kyun ki yeh doori bardasht nahin ho rahi thi! I love you Prachi!' Prachi whispers, 'I love you too Neev! Ab lagta hain jaise main ab tumhare baghair nahin reh paongi! Tum mere zindagi ho Neev!' Neev holds her hand and looks deeply into Prachi's eyes, 'Prachi promise me that no matter what I do, tum mujhe kabhi chor ke nahin jaogi! Promise that no matter how many stupid things I do, you won't leave me ever! Agar tum mujhe kabhi chor ke chali gayi toh main maar jaonga!!' Prachi covers his mouth whispering, 'Neev phir aisa kabhi maat kehna! Agar tumhe kuch hogaya to main jee nahin paongi! I promise main tumhe kabhi chor ke nahin jaongi!'

Prachi begins to tear up at the thought of losing him. Neev kisses her tears away as Prachi closes her eyes in reassurance, knowing Neev would never leave her alone. Neev moves up to kiss Prachi's eyelids and then kisses the tip of her nose. Neev pulls her dupatta and tosses it on the ground along with his own. He looks back onto her innocent face and kisses her cheeks, removing the traces of wet tears completely. Prachi hugs Neev tighter as she feels his lips begin to passionately kiss her own. Neev releases her lips and kisses her chin, moving down to her throat, and then nuzzling into her neck. Prachi moans in delight as she feels Neev caress her body.

Prachi finally opens her eyes, to find herself looking deeply into a pair of intense eyes. His eyes are lit with a fiery passion and a desire to express his love. His hands keep caressing her waist. He looks into her eyes as if asking permission. Prachi nods shyly understanding his desires as she feels the same desires forming within her as well.

Neev pulls over the bedcovers over themselves as he begins to love Prachi, fulfilling all his heart's desire. He wants to make her, his in every way. To pamper her and love her completely so she would never have to question his love for her, ever. Prachi feels so wanted, so cherished, so loved by Neev. She finds herself melting in the warmth of his arms because of his passion. Prachi has never felt so wanted, so loved, so happy in her entire life as she did at the moment. Prachi and Neev continue to cuddle, to kiss, and to make love to each other throughout the entire night, knowing that now they have become inseparable.

 

**********

In Kavya's room, Anjali sits on the bed thinking about the car ride conversation. She smiles devilishly as she recalls his words, 'I love making you mad!' Anjali grins as she thinks, 'Well darling you're not the only one that loves to annoy and two can play at this game!' Anjali smirks thinking about tonight and then hears the doorknob turn. She looks over towards the door seeing Kavya standing against it looking completely mesmerized by the sight of her on his bed. Kavya can't believe he is finally married to the woman he loves. Anjali looks absolutely enchanting tonight.

Kavya begins to walk towards her and sits on the bed next to her. He sees the gunghaat covering her face and slowly removes the cloth. Anjali slowly opens her eyes and stares into his,. Anjali grins as she sees his eyes are full of passion. Kavya nears Anjali's lips and she turns her head away. Kavya tries again to capture her lips, but Anjali shifts again. Kavya grabs Anjali's chin and turns her to face him. He looks into her eyes and Anjali smiles as if she has done nothing to annoy him. Kavya sighs in annoyance at Anjali's vacant expressions as if she has no clue why he is annoyed.

Anjali gets off the bed and stands in front of the mirror on the dresser as Kavya watches rather amused. She starts taking off her earrings and necklace. Her hands stop midway through taking off her churdiyaan because she finds Kavya standing directly behind her, breathing down her neck. Kavya's hot breath gently kisses her skin, sending shivers down her spine. Kavya helps Anjali take off the rest of her churiyaan and then she turns around to face him. Kavya places his hand on either side of Anjali on the dressing table, blocking her way. Anjali is forced to look into Kavya's very naughty eyes. His intentions seemed anything, but honorable. Anjali wants to laugh out loud watching Kavya's eagerness. She pushes Kavya's hand, which blocks her way and begins walking away from him.

Kavya grabs her arm, pushing her against the wall roughly. Anjali looks at Kavya rather bewildered, then flashes him a seductive smile. Her smile throws off Kavya, since it contradicts her behavior towards him so far because her smile seems rather alluring. Anjali pecks Kavya's cheek, which loosens his grip and she begins to confidently walk away leaving him stunned. As soon as he realizes what happened, he pulls her hand once more, making her body collide with his. Her back is pressed against his as Kavya holds her hands firmly behind her back. Anjali moans in pain, 'Kavya please'' He smirks and nuzzles into her ear, making her tremble. Kavya loves having that effect on her.

Kavya pushes Anjali onto the bed and hovers on top of her. He gently glides his finger down her face. When Kavya nears her mouth Anjali bites his finger. Kavya lets out a yelp of pain and then notices the playful look in her eyes. Kavya inches near her ear and whispers, 'Are you done with the games?' Anjali smirks, 'Patience is a virtue darling' Kavya grins, 'Sweetheart, my intentions are anything, but honorable so do you really think I'm really going to be patient and virtuous!' Anjali laughs at his persistence. Kavya is captivated by her innocent laughter.

After a while, Anjali realizes Kavya is staring at her with loving eyes. As the desire grows within her, she grabs the back of his head and pulls him into a long, passionate kiss. Kavya seems taken back by her unpredictable behavior and soon begins responding with urgency. Anjali's hands travel down Kavya's back and make their way under his sherwani. She begins to tug it over his head and tosses it aside. Kavya smirks and flips Anjali aggressively onto her back, holding her hand tightly behind her back. Anjali breathes heavily, 'Kavya stop it! Mera haath choro!' Kavya moves her hair away and passionately kisses her back, while Anjali moans in pleasure. Kavya starts to pull the strings of her blouse and then rolls Anjali on top of him. Anjali's hands begin to feel his abs in the midst of all the passion. She kisses his bare chest and then hugs him tightly. She kisses him on the lips breathlessly mumbling, 'I love you Kavya!' He softly replies, 'I love you too Anju!'

Kavya pulls the covers on top of them as he releases Anjali and himself from their clothing. Kavya makes love to Anjali, making her completely his in every way. Kavya's gentle touches arouse Anjali, in ways she never imagined. She has never felt so complete in her entire life. Kavya never knew love could be so magnificent, so magical. After both surrender themselves completely to their love, Anjali sinks deeply into Kavya's chest declaring her love for him over and over as he murmurs the same to her.

 

**********

In Angad's room, Kripa sits on his bed anxiously waiting for Angad's arrival. She nervously starts adjusting her gunghaat, making sure it covers her face entirely. She begins to giggle at the thought of the stunt she is about to pull on her husband. Angad starts turning the doorknob, which interrupts Kripa's thoughts.  Angad looks at his beautiful princess and can't help but grin about his luck. He is so lucky to fall in love with his childhood friend and is able to marry her as well. In short, life is perfect.

Angad slowly approaches Kripa and sits at the edge of the bed. To his dismay, he couldn't view her face. Angad leans back so that his head may rest on Kripa's lap. He gets the biggest shock of his life as he looks up at her.  His eyes grow wide in fright as he sees the most terrifying sight imaginable. Angad screams, 'AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!' as he rolls straight on to the floor and lands with a loud thud. He looks at Kripa in horror because she is wearing a mask over her face under that gunghaat and it's not just any mask, it is the mask the murder had worn in the movie, Scream! Who would expect a creepy mask under the gunghaat. It just so happens that Angad is completely petrified of the mask from Scream, lets just say Angad has been frightened with it one too many times in the past.

He begins clutching his heart like he just had a heart attack and his face looks noticeably pale. Angad's scream soon dies down as he hears Kripa laughing like a crazy lunatic. He looks at her bewildered with his mouth hanging open in shock. Kripa notices that Angad has stopped screaming and seems kind of angry at the moment, not to mention also looks ready to kill her. Kripa notices Angad leap off the ground and come closer to her looking ready to commit murder. Kripa jumps up from the bed and darts around the room screaming, 'I'm sorry Angad, I'm sorry!' Angad yells across the room, 'Kripa what the hell!!! Woman what is wrong with you? You nearly gave me a heart attack!!' Angad cringes as he sees Kripa is still wearing the mask and still laughing like a maniac, 'Oh God Angad you should have seen your face! It was priceless! And you call me a darpok! Now you'll know better then to play dirty with me like you did in the car!' Angad reaches out to grab Kripa as she runs around the room.

Angad finally pushes Kripa against the wall grinning, 'Got you now! You know Kripa, I was going to go easy on you tonight, but now I don't think so!' Angad removes the mask, tossing it into the trashcan. He finally sees her beautiful face. Kripa grins, 'Khanna is that a threat?'  Angad whispers seductively, 'Krips it's a promise!' With that Angad scoops up Kripa into his arms and throws her onto the bed roughly. Kripa looks at him shocked and grins as she finds the dangerous side of Angad quite a turn on. Angad pulls off his kurta and throws it on her. Kripa pulls the kurta off of her head and quickly tosses it on the floor. Kripa looks at Angad slightly angry, but then she sees his gorgeous body, hovering over her.

Angad starts pushing down on Kripa with the weight of his body, making her lie flatly underneath him. Angad touches her luscious lips by gently rubbing them with the stroke of his thumb. She begins to stare at his lips with greed as it arises within her. Angad inches closer to her lips and kisses her passionately. As the kiss becomes more heated, Kripa suddenly starts snorting in laughter, while Angad looks at her aggravated. She starts apologizing, 'Sorry' I'm sorry!' Angad shakes his head and kiss her lips passionately again, until he hears another giggle. Angad groans, 'KRIPS!!! It's not THAT funny!!!' Kripa starts roaring with laughter that she can't seem to control. She sits up holding her stomach in amusement as Angad gets up from the bed rather annoyed with her behavior. Angad fumes in anger as he looks at her ridiculing him. He roughly grabs the back of her head and pulls her into a forceful kiss. Kripa struggles to get in a breath of fresh air since Angad blatantly refuses to release her imprisoned lips.

After he is done torturing her, he moves down to her delicate neck. He tosses her necklace aside as it comes in his way. He arouses desires within her as they reach dangerous levels of passion. Angad sees the passion arising in her eyes and smirks. He gets off Kripa and walks towards the balcony. Kripa looks at him strangely. Soon Angad hears her approach from behind. He turns and shoves her against the wall with her back towards him. Angad throws her dupatta aside and presses his body against hers. He starts passionately kissing her back, moving down and pulling the strings of her blouse with his teeth. Kripa moans in pleasure as she feels his lips travel down her back. Kripa turns around and presses her body into his with longing eyes. Angad picks up Kripa in his strong arms, leading her towards the bed. He lays her down gently and gets on top. He kisses near her lips, but not directly on her lips, which makes Kripa annoyed. Kripa whispers seductively, 'Stop messing with me Khanna! You'll never learn will you?' Angad whispers back huskily, 'Never!'

Angad and Kripa continue to undress each other as their passion grows. Angad's sensual touches arouse fiery desires within Kripa. They both get under the sheets, exploring estranged territory. Angad makes Kripa fully his in every way, giving her full rights over himself as she does the same. Angad begins to lose himself completely in loving Kripa, his Krips. The both have never felt so whole, so complete in life as they did now. They make love repeatedly throughout the night, expressing their love for each other as though it is their last chance.

Chapter 48

In the morning in Neev and Prachi's room, Prachi wakes up to see Neev's innocent face with his mouth hanging wide open. Prachi smiles and gives him a kiss on the cheek. Neev stirs in his sleep mumbling, 'I love you Prachi'' Prachi starts to blush as she gets up from bed. Prachi heads towards the shower. After a nice relaxing shower, Prachi comes out in a light pink salwar kameez suit with wet hair. She looks breathtaking. Prachi notices Neev is still lazily laying on the bed. Prachi places her hands on her hips and sighs, while shaking her head. She sits at the edge of the bed and softly whispers, 'Neev utho' He turns in bed mumbling, 'Pehle please bolo!' Prachi gets annoyed, 'Neev uth rahe ho ya nahin?' Neev mumbles, 'Pehle please bolo phir uth jaonga!'

Prachi groans while Neev smiles with his eyes still closed. Prachi gets closer to Neev and whispers in his ear, 'Please'pretty please with a cherry on top!' Neev smiles widely and pulls Prachi on top of him. Prachi's mouth drops in shock which Neev takes advantage of by pulling her into the sweetest kiss. Neev and Prachi pull away as her wet hair touches his face. He asks, 'Did you just have a shower?' Prachi nods while Neev gasps, 'Without me?' Prachi slaps his arm, 'Chup' baadmash!' Neev laughs and kisses Prachi on the cheek, then skips off to the bathroom to take a shower and get ready.

 

**********

In the morning in Kavya and Anjali's room, Anjali starts moving her hand around trying to figure out what she is resting on she is since she seems too lazy to open her eyes. Her hand starts traveling down Kavya's chest as he moans in pleasure. Anjali feels the beatings of his heart and her eyes burst open landing on Kavya's attractive face. A huge smile appears on Anjali's face as she remembers she is now married to Kavya. Anjali starts tracing circles on Kavya's bare chest. When she notices him move a muscle, she inches near Kavya's face and whispers, 'Good morning!' Kavya just hugs Anjali, pulling her on top of himself whispering, 'Hmm love you!' Anjali blushes and whispers, 'Come on we should get ready!' Kavya whispers, 'No, I'm tired!' Anjali nudges Kavya saying, 'We have to go down, I'm sure Dad and Mom are waiting for us!' Kavya groans, 'But I barely slept!' Anjali sits up arguing with Kavya further. Out of pure annoyance Anjali kicks Kavya in the butt while going towards the bathroom, making him fall flat on the ground. Kavya gets up rubbing his butt to soothe his pain away thinking, 'I'll get her later!'

As soon as Anjali comes out of the bathroom wearing a towel, Kavya starts to chase her around the room trying to take the towel away from her. Anjali falls on the bed and as soon as Kavya grabs the towel, Anjali pulls the covers over herself. She watches as Kavya casually whistles all the way to the bathroom with her towel around his neck. He yells, 'That's for kicking me Anju!' Anjali groans while wrapping the bed sheet tighter around her body.

 

**********

In the morning in Angad and Kripa's room, the sunlight entering through the window gently stroking Kripa's eyelids. She becomes annoyed by the sunlight's interference on her perfect morning. Kripa buries her face into Angad's bare chest. Angad drops his hands around Kripa's waist, hugging her closer. He kisses her forehead mumbling, 'I love you Krips!' Kripa softly whispers, 'Me too!' Kripa throws her arms around him cuddling and softly kissing his chest asking, 'Angad what time is it?' He replies without even glancing at a watch, 'Time to go back to sleep Krips!' Kripa moans as Angad starts kissing and nuzzling into Kripa's neck. He laughs as he hears her soft moans and whimpers, 'Angad we have to get up!' Angad quickly replies, 'Maybe later, this is more fun don't you agree?' Kripa laughs, 'Come on Angad, what will everyone say?' Angad romantically says, 'That they had a rough night and need sleep!' Kripa looks at him horrified, 'Okay that's it we are getting up right now!' Kripa starts to get up off the bed, but gets pulled back by Angad making her land on top of him in his firm grip. Angad scoops her up in his muscular arms and takes her into the bathroom whispers, 'Let's get ready together!' Kripa blushes and kisses Angad passionately, wrapping her arms around his neck.

 

Downstairs in the Khanna House, Dilip is sitting at the dining table, while Naina is in the kitchen. Neev and Prachi are the first to make their way downstairs for breakfast. Neev sits with his father to discuss current events while Prachi enters the kitchen to help Naina with breakfast. Soon after, Angad and Kripa also come down stairs. Angad joins in on the discussion with the men whereas Kripa joins the women in the kitchen. Prachi and Kripa decide to make food for their husbands.

Kripa starts grinning widely at the thought of making food for the boys. She taps Prachi and whispers something in her ear, while Prachi's eyes grow wide in shock. Prachi says, 'Di they will kill us!' Kripa waves her hand dismissing Prachi's concern replying, 'No they won't! Come on' you know you want to!' Prachi shakes her head replying, 'Nuh uh.' Kripa folds her hands begging, 'Pleaseeee''  Prachi melts seeing her cute sister's expressions and caves in. Kripa and Prachi decide to make halwa since it is Angad and Neev's favorite. While making it Prachi asks, 'Di how are we going to ruin it?' Krips picks up the salt bottle saying, 'Ta-da! This is gonna be fun!'

Prachi shakes her head and laughs while Kripa dumps a hand full of salt into the pan, mixing it thoroughly. Kripa asks hesitantly, 'You think we should check it?'  Prachi looks at Kripa with wide eyes saying, 'Main nahin ka rahi yeh!' Kripa and Prachi giggle, while Naina sneaks up behind asking, 'Kya ho raha hain? Tum dono itna kyun haas rahe ho?' Kripa and Prachi pull Naina down to ear level and whisper their master plan to her, while Naina grins, 'Bilkul saahi bahu chuni hain humne apne beto ke liye! Lage raho, ab maaza ayega!'  Kripa and Prachi laugh as they see Naina wink and leave towards the dinning table with the rest of the breakfast. Kripa and Prachi put the halwa into a bowl and take it to the table to serve their husbands.

Angad and Neev literally jump out of their chairs as they see that their wives have prepared halwa just for them. Kripa and Prachi cover their mouths since they can't seem to control the smile forming on their faces. Kripa and Prachi serve their husbands with halwa and wait for them to take a bite. As soon as the halwa enters their mouths, the bitter taste nearly has them gagging. Angad and Neev look at their wives helplessly, not knowing whether they put salt instead of sugar on purpose or by accident. If it's on purpose then the boys can spit it across the room, but by chance if it's by accident it would probably have the girls in tears for despising their cooking. The boys are sure in a dilemma, to swallow or not to swallow that is the question!

The girls notice the fix the boys are in and pretend to act innocent as if they had no idea about the salt. The boys keep the halwa in their mouth, not wanting to swallow. Just then Dilip notices the boys haven't swallowed so he asks, 'Arre tum dono ka kyun nahin re ho? Hamari dono bahu ke haathon mein toh jaado hain! Kao kao!' Naina looks away hiding her smile as her husband basically orders her boys to swallow the bitter halwa. Angad and Neev decide to swallow the bitter halwa and then chug down a full glass of orange juice. The boys start making weird facial expressions and then put their hands up saying at the same time, 'Hogaya aur nahin!!' Kripa and Prachi make sad faces saying, 'Kya hua acha nahin laga?'

 The girls look like they are on the verge of crying. The boys look at them shocked. Angad speaks up rapidly, 'Nahin aise baat nahin hain! Bas mann nahin kar raha.' Kripa starts fake crying while Dilip looks angrily at his sons demanding, 'Angad, Neev! Poora kao nahin to maar kaoge! Meri bechari betiyon ko ruladiya tum dono ne!' Angad and Neev look horrified as they watch Kripa and Prachi wink at them. Now the boys are pretty mad that the girls did this on purpose. The boys jump out their seats yelling, 'But dad the girls put'' Dilip yells, 'Angad, Neev eat now!' The boys give killer looks to their wives while they eat the atrocious halwa. The girls shake off the deadly glares as they silently laugh.

 

**********

Downstairs in the Sharma House, Surya is sitting at dinning table while Gayatri is in the kitchen preparing breakfast. Soon Kavya and Anjali come downstairs. Kavya and Surya engage in light conversation while Anjali goes to the kitchen to help Gayatri prepare breakfast for the men. Anjali decides to make kheer for Kavya since it is his favorite. Now normally Anjali makes the really great kheer. Gayatri sees how devotedly Anjali is making kheer for Kavya and is really touched by her love. Gayatri kisses Anjali's forehead and makes breakfast.

After the kheer is ready, Anjali pours it into a bowl and brings it out to the dinning table with Gayatri bringing the breakfast. Kavya's mouth starts to water as he sees the kheer. Anjali blushes as she sees the happiness on his face. Anjali gives him some kheer in a bowl and warns, 'Kavya don't eat it'' Kavya didn't even let Anjali finish and he put the spoonful of burning hot kheer in his mouth. The moment the kheer enters his mouth, Kavya yells, 'AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!' Anjali covers her ears and rushes to Kavya giving him a glassful of water. After he drinks the ice cold water he breathes a sigh of relief. Anjali places her hands on her hips saying, 'I was trying to tell you it was still hot!' Anjali laughs at Kavya's embarrassed expressions. Surya and Gayatri begin to laugh seeing their cute behavior towards one another.

Anjali sits next to Kavya to feed him the kheer she made especially for him. Anjali gets a spoonful of kheer, blows on it gently, and then feeds Kavya lovingly. Kavya smiles, 'Anju this kheer is amazing! Thanks for making it for me!' Anjali smiles shyly, 'Well who else would I make the kheer for if not you? Consider is my apology for this morning' Kavya and Anjali laugh. Anjali insists to Surya and Gayatri, 'Mom, dad aap log bhi leejye na. Maine apne haathon se banaya hain, lena to parega hi!' Surya and Gayatri smile as their Anjali serves then kheer. Gayatri and Surya compliment, 'Wah kya kheer banayi hain hamari bahu ne, kamal kardiya!' Anjali blushes as Gayatri hugs Anjali on a job well done.

 

After breakfast the girls are to head over to their parents house for the phag phere rasam. The boys are not too thrilled about the separation for a couple hours, but they are extremely excited about the reception party tonight. The girls spend time with their parents and bugging their brothers for old time sake. Soon enough the boys go pick up their wives from next door at their parents' houses and get ready for the reception party tonight.

The girls decide to wear heavy embroidered saris at the reception party, while their husbands dressed in classy and sophisticated suits. Angad wears a black suit, black shirt with buttons halfway open, and a black belt with a silver buckle' he looks like a sexy beast. Kripa matches with her husband by wearing a midnight black sari with heavy white golden embroidery. Kavya wears a black suit with blue shirt open slightly showing off his chest'as he checked himself out all that escapes his lips is, 'Mmm mmm GOOD!' Anjali matches her husband by wearing a deep blue sari with heavy white golden embroidery. Neev wears a black suit with a red silky shirt, forgetting the tie and undoing his shirt buttons' on the whole making him look sizzling hot! Prachi matches her husband by wearing a ruby red sari with white golden embroidery along the sides. So after all the couples are ready, they take off towards their destination, the reception hall.

As soon as they enter, they are stunned by the sight. The whole hall is full of guests, who have already arrived. Their parents stand at the entrance with their arms wide open and champagne glasses raised in their hands as the three couples walk through the door. Yes,  it is only three couples because well the other two planned to start their honeymoon a bit earlier than the others'yes Josh and Prem are just that eager. In any case the couples hug their parents and are each handed glasses of champagne. Dilip and Surya announce, 'To the beautiful couples, may you all remain together forever.' With the whole hall shouting, 'Cheers' and clink their glasses, them all drink up.

Prachi stares at the drink oddly as if examining it. Neev notices her not drinking. He takes the glass from her hand and point towards the ceiling exclaiming, 'Hey jaan what's that?' Prachi shoots her head up opening her mouth to say, 'What are you'' Neev doesn't let her finish the sentence as he pours the champagne down her throat. He holds Prachi's nose like a kid while she glares. Now considering this is their reception Prachi can't go around spitting out champagne, which leaves her the only option of drinking the liquid. After she drinks, she starts slapping Neev's arm complaining, 'NEEV!! How could you' ughh!!' Neev laughs and exclaims, 'SCORE!! I MADE PRACHI DRINK IT!' Kavya turns sharply around and glares at Neev which makes Neev's laughter subside immediately. Kavya yells, 'Neev you moron!! Why did you make Prachi drink that when she didn't want to!' as he grabs onto Neev's collars. Neev starts looking around, not knowing what to say anymore. Neev grins as he whispers, 'Kavya look buddy, this isn't a good time' baad mein pakar lena!! There are people here! Abhi toh chordo!' Kavya eases off Neev as he notices that within seconds he would create a huge audience. The rest of the gang watches in amusement.

Soon after the toast, Angad makes his way towards the stage and takes the microphone. He announces, 'Ladies and gentleman if I could kindly get your'. Ughh PEOPLE LISTEN UP' thank you so now that I have your attention I would like to sing a song and this one is for my cute little sister, my lovely bhabhi and the love of my life! I love you Krips!' Everyone breaks into applause, cheering on Angad for his upcoming performance. Soon the music starts playing to Maula Mere Maula from Anwar.

The lights dim so the only objects illuminating the reception hall

are the numerous candles placed throughout the room adding to the

romantic atmosphere.

Maula mere, maula mere maula mere, maula mere

Maula mere, maula mere maula mere, maula mere

Maula mere, maula mere maula mere, maula mere

Maula mere, maula mere maula mere, maula mere

Angad keeps his eyes closed as he sings with a huge smile on his face.

Kripa looks at her husband with all the love in the world. Anjali and Prachi

press themselves closer to Kavya and Neev as the romance begins to fill the air.

aankhein teri, aankhein teri , kitni haseen

ki inkaa aashiq, mein ban gayaa hoon

mujhako basaa le, iname tu

Angad opens his eyes and looks directly into Kripa's beautiful eyes.

She radiates this glow from her eyes as she looks at him in pure awe.

She has always been enchanted by his voice. Angad comes off the stage and

towards Kripa.

ishq hai maula mere, maula mere maula mere,

maula mere maula mere maula mere, maula mere

ishq hai maula mere, maula mere maula mere,

maula mere maula mere maula mere, maula mere

ishq hai maula mere, maula mere maula mere,

maula mere maula mere maula mere, maula mere

Angad puts his hand out in front of Kripa asking for a dance. At the

same time Kavya and Neev also ask Anjali and Prachi for a slow dance

to this melodious song. The girls gently place their own hands on top of their

husbands as they guide them to the middle of the dance floor. Angad

continues to sing gazing into Kripa's eyes as do the others.

ki inakaa aashiq, mein ban gayaa hoon

mujhako basaa le, iname tu

Angad gently brushes his cheek against hers and then looks deeply

 into Kripa's eyes as if looking into her soul. He smiles as he sees the love

and affection in her eyes. He continues to sing while swaying with Kripa

 to the rhythm song.

mujhase yeh har ghadi, meraa dil kahe

tum hi ho usaki aarzoo

mujhase yeh har ghadi, mere lab kahe

teri hi ho sab guftagoo

Kavya looks into Anjali's eyes and she soon finds herself gently

placing her head on Kavya's chest feeling the rhythmic beatings of

his heart. She smiles as she feels Kavya's heart beat faster because of her

closeness. She looks onto his lips wanting to kiss him and then settles for

kissing his cheek, which makes Kavya's heart pound even faster.

baatein teri itni haseen, main yaad inko jab kartaa hoon

phoolon si aaye, khushaboo

Neev looks at his Prachi remembering his childhood with Prachi. She was

always open with him than with anyone else. He was and will remain

her best friend afterall. Prachi always had a way with words, making

them sound passionate. He loves her for her individuality. 

rakh loon chhupaa ke main kahin tujhako

saayaa bhi teraa naa main doon

Angad starts to walk away from Kripa towards the stage, when she pulls

him back and holds him from behind.

rakh loon banaa ke kahin ghar, main tujhe

saath tere, main hi rahoon

Kavya holds Anjali's hands and looks into her eyes meaningfully as if

saying he would never leave her. He kisses her hand, which

makes Anjali blush.

julfen teri, itni ghani

dekh ke inako, yeh sochataa hoon

saaye me, inake main jiyoon

Neev holds Prachi close and kisses her hair and then her temple. He tucks

a strand on her hair behind her ear, whispering his love for her. Prachi just

holds onto him tighter buring her face in his chest as she blushes.

ishq hai maula mere, maula mere maula mere,

maula mere maula mere maula mere, maula mere

ishq hai maula mere, maula mere maula mere,

maula mere maula mere maula mere, maula mere

ishq hai maula mere, maula mere maula mere,

maula mere maula mere maula mere, maula mere

Angad, Kavya, and Neev twirl their wives so that they face away from

them. They hold onto their waists as they continue to sway to the song.

The girls are lost in the passionate touches as the boys continue to make

their heart flutter. They boys wish at this moment they could be

alone with the girls.

meraa dil yahi bolaa, meraa dil yahi bolaa,

yaara raaj yeh usane hai mujh par kholaa

ki hai ishq mohabbat, jiske dil mein

usko pasand karta hai maulaa

Neev holds onto Prachi, not wanting to let the moment go. He moves his

hand down her back and presses her closer to himself. He looks into her

eyes and smiles seeing the innocence and love there. He moves

closer to her face, slightly alarming her. He then rubs his nose

against hers in a cute manner making her smile widely.

meraa dil yahi bolaa, meraa dil yahi bolaa,

yaara raaj yeh usane hai mujh par kholaa

ki hai ishq mohabbat, jiske dil mein

usko pasand karta hai maulaa

Kavya sways with Anjali. He brings her closer and starts nuzzling into her neck,

whispering sweet nothings into her ear. Anjali blushes and then grins as

 Kavya comes near her. She moves her face to his ear and gently bites it,

making Kavya gasp in horror. She smirks at his expression. They both

 start laugh and continue to sway to the music.

meraa dil yahi bolaa, meraa dil yahi bolaa,

yaara raaj yeh usane hai mujh par kholaa

ki hai ishq mohabbat, jiske dil mein

usko pasand karta hai maulaa

Angad continues to sing looking passionately into Kripa's eyes. He starts

drowning in their depths as his voice begins to fade. Angad and Kripa look

at each other with all the love in the world. Kripa smiles as she looks at

Angad with eyes brimmed with tears while his voice fades into the background,

 ending the heartfelt song.

It is as if time has stopped for all three couples because they seem lost in their each other, but soon the applause from the audience brings all three couples back to reality. Angad takes a humble bow as the guests wildly applaud his outstanding performance.

All three couples are called to the center of the hall, while the waiters bring a humungous chocolate cake with 'Congratulations to Angad-Kripa, Kavya-Anjali, & Neev-Prachi' written in frosting. The boys gaze at the cake more lovingly than they did at their wives. Saliva starts to form on the side of the boys mouths, while the girls look at the guys utterly disgusted and shocked. The girls poke their elbows into their husbands stomach making them yelp in pain and look questioningly at their wives. The girls whisper slowly, 'Laal tapak rahi hain you idiot!' to their husbands, while the boys look completely embarrassed. Soon the couples cut the cake and feed each other and their parents.

Finally Dilip, Surya, Naina, and Gayatri come on stage to announce a big surprise. Dilip and Surya announce, 'We have a special surprise for our three couples. Now as you all know our six kids are the best of friends, which is why we are sending them to together to HAWAII for their HONEYMOON!!' The whole gang is shocked and the boys stop eating the cake with their mouths hanging wide open. The whole gang screams in delight, 'NO WAY!! OMG HAWAII!!!' While Naina and Gayatri add, '' and we rented a beach house for you guys to live in together AND you guys are leaving TOMORROW MORNING!!' Another round of squealing is heard from the girls. The whole gang hi-fives each other thinking its going to be an amazing vacation!

Chapter  50

 

After the party, the couples rush home to do their packing because of the short notice. Soon enough after forcing their husbands to help them rather then procrastinate they finish packing for their honeymoon. It would only be two weeks because they all have to start work soon, but two weeks seemed long enough to enjoy themselves. Soon the couples find themselves all gathered at the Khanna Mansion with all the parents there as well. The parents want to drop their kids off and give them special surprise that awaits their children. As they begin driving, the boys start to notice they aren't driving towards the airport. Neev asks, 'Umm dad, the airport is the other way' where are we going?' Dilip and Surya just reply in a mysterious tone, 'You'll see'' The gang looks at each other weirdly, but they trust their parents enough to know they will get to Hawaii one way or another.

After about an hour of driving they find themselves parked infront of a gigantic private jet plane. Everyone gets out of the car, the couples a little more hesitantly. Kavya asks, 'Uhh what are we doi' wait whose plane is this?' Dilip and Surya look towards the plane and declare, 'It's ours!' Angad suddenly asks, 'Pardon? I thought you two just said 'it's ours''' Dilip and Surya nearly laugh looking at the bemused expressions on their children's faces. Dilip and Surya simply reply, 'Well we did, this private jet is ours!' The kids scream, 'What? Since when did we get a jet?' Dilip shrugs replying, 'Well'since our ungrateful kids are going on a honeymoon, we thought we would get a plane for said ungrateful kids to travel in!' The girls start screaming up and down hugging their fathers to thank them, while the boys stand their grinning at all the possibilities in the future for mischief.

The kids finally bid their parents good-bye and make their way inside the luxurious private jet. There are exactly twelve seats on the plane, the seats are in pairs of two, with two columns and three rows. It is totally perfect for the size of their two families. The couples settle in the plane, finding their own corners away from the other couples. As much as they all love each other, it is their honeymoon afterall so alone time is a must. As soon as the plane takes off the couples fall asleep because they had to stay up all night packing.

There are two men flying the plane and hours into the flight they receive a call. One of the men answer, 'Hello sir' yes sir we are about to land'no sir they are asleep' what? But' but sir, I can't! It's so cruel!... Fine sir as you say' good-bye!' The man puts down the phone and says, 'Ill be right back!' The man walks towards the passengers and sees them all asleep. He sighs and yells on top of his lungs, 'AHHHHHHH WE ARE ABOUT TO CRASH WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE!!! AHHHHH!' The man runs up and down the aisle making the gang wake up and start screaming as well, 'I DON'T WANT TO DIE!!! AHHHHHHHH!!! WE CAN'T DIE ON OUR HONEYMOON!! IT HASN'T EVEN BEGUN YET!!' The man stops screaming and yells, 'WHOA CALM DOWN!! We are about to land any minute' Your fathers told me to scare you guys awake' sorry!' The man literally ran all the way back to control room to help land the plane. The gang's eyes were wide open in absolute horror holding their hearts trying to calm their breathing. The boys find the girls' heads are buried in their chests shivering from that'. near death experience? The boys shake their heads and coule practically picture their fathers having a kick out of this.

Anyways the plane soon lands and the couples forget about the frightfest that occurred on the plane. They all find themselves in tropical paradise. Hawaii looks completely breathtaking. They find that a car has been rented for them, which is to lead them to their beach house. As soon as they arrive, they can't help but wish they could live in this heaven forever. It is a two story beach house surrounded by sand. The ocean is clearly visible from the location. There are palm trees everywhere and at a distance there is a little lake with white sand all around. They all enter the house and are even more astonished at the sight. They tour around the place to find a cozy livingroom with a fireplace, a fancy dinning room, a fully equipped kitchen, along with other little rooms. The girls sigh in happiness clutching onto the hands of their husbands in delight. Then they move upstairs to find three huge bedrooms with balconies filled with unlit candles and flower petels thrown around the room. The girls sigh dreamily, while the boys stare at the girls lovingly. The couples start claiming rooms with the first door to the left being Angad-Kripa, middle door Kavya-Anjali, then the last door to the right is Neev-Prachi.

After all the couples settle in, they decide to explore the island they now call their home away from home. The gang starts walking around the beach, wandering aimlessly around. The guys decide to sit down on the sand while the girls curl up against the boys just listening to their heartbeats and the sounds of the waves washing up against shore. The sun is setting, filling the sky with a shade of pink and orange. It looks so serene, so quiet, and so peaceful. The boys kiss the girls on top of their foreheads as they watch the sun disappear. The boys quickly get up saying they will be back in a few, while the girls talk amongst themselves about how amazing the location is. Soon the boys show up with ice cream, making the girls pounce on them in happiness. The girls start licking away, not bothering to care how messy they are being.

Neev sees ice cream all over Prachi's nose. He wants to laugh at her cute expressions. He thinks she can be such a little kid at times and her innocence is what he finds so endearing. Neev holds up Prachi's chin and makes her look into his playful eyes. Prachi shies away, downcasting her eyes. She soon feels Neev licking her little nose, in efforts to get the ice cream off her beautiful face. Prachi looks at him in shock, while he shrugs replying, 'It's not my fault you're a messy eater!' Prachi touches her nose, making sure there is no more ice cream left as she blushes a deep shade of red.

 

**********

Kavya sticks him finger in his ice cream and starts spreading it around Anjali's face. She looks at him in complete shock and anger. She decides to do the same thing to Kavya, not noticing that she has no more ice cream left. She looks down at her own cone and frowns. She pouts as Kavya keeps messing with her. Anjali says, 'Kavya this isn't fair! I don't have anymore left! Stop putting it on me! How am I going to get it off?' Kavya grins, 'Like this!' and starts kissing her face. When he gets to her nose, she breaks into hysterical laughter. Kavya looks at her shocked not knowing what caused her reaction. Anjali pants, 'Kavya I remember about the nose thing!' Kavya looks at her questioningly, 'What nose thing?' Anjali replies, 'Remember on prom night when you walked me to the door and started kissing my nose because you were drunk!' Kavya shouts, 'THAT WAS YOUR NOSE?' Anjali laughs even more nodding her head, while Kavya looks down embarrassed.

Angad sees ice cream all over Kripa's lips. He smirks looking at Kripa who is so engrossed in her ice cream to even notice Angad's presence at all. He gently turns Kripa to face him and he takes the ice cream from her hands. Before any protests can occur Angad captures her lips in a soft kiss, licking the ice cream off her mouth completely. Angad then pulls himself away licking his lips mischiviously, while Kripa blushes at the looks Angad is giving her. Kripa snatches her ice cream back, but it falls on the sand. Kripa looks like she is about to cry. Angad hands her his ice cream, while she grabs his face giving him a smacking kiss on his cheek. Angad laughs as they share the ice cream together.

 

Soon darkness befalls the night sky and the couples make their way back to their beach house. As soon as they enter the house, the lack of actual sleep starts to take a toll on them. Even though the boys had different plans for the night, they decide it can wait because they are all in desperate need of a good night's rest. They cuddle with their lovers and welcome sleep with open arms.
