OS: The much awaited Time-PG ;) Part 2 Pg 8 23/04 - Page 6

Final Part

They both had a very peaceful day at work, they didnt have any cases. And all the while Arjun was confused and shocked, and no need to say his male ego was deeply hurt. But what could he do? Riya, his wife, believed or thought that he had a problem, and thus hadn't initiated the SR. But he and his god knew how many times he had tried desperately for a SR, but everytime Riya had thrown water on all his plans. Well almost all, if he considered that last night he was the one who fell asleep. But tonight he decided he'll clear all Riya's doubts, no preparing anything, no creating any sweet atmosphere, nothing special, he'd just take his Riya to the bed and do it...

While on the other hand, Riya was very worried now. Why hadn't Arjun try for the SR yet? Was she so undesirable? Or was Arjun really ill? What was happening? She didnt know what to do or whom to talk with. Ayesha was observing Riya since a long time, she could see that Riya was very disturbed, and thus decided to talk with her.

"Riya koi problem hein kya?" Ayesha asked.

"Nahin kuch bhi to nahin?" Riya said blushing, she didnt want to tell anyone of her personal problems.

"Riya, if i can help, do let me know?" Ayesha pressed, because she could see that Riya was looking very disturbed lately.

Riya couldn't control herself anymore and end up in sobs. Ayesha went closer to her, and gave her a big hug. Not being able to bear it at all, Riya managed to tell Ayesha that they hadn't even have their SR yet.

"No SR yet?" Ayesha asked shocked. Ayesha had always thought Arjun a hot-blooded man, and she never guessed he could take so long in claiming his wife.

"Ayesha, do you think i'm not desirable at all? Do you think the problem is with me?" Riya asked.

"Arre nahin Ri, you are very beautiful, otherwise why would Arjun marry you?" Ayesha said trying to cheer Riya up.

"But then why is he keeping his distance?" Riya asked in between sobs. She was looking with lots of hopes towards Ayesha, as if Ayesha could actually help.

"Well how would i know?" Ayesha said to herself. Suddenly she had a thought in her mind.

"Maybe he's just ashamed because he's still a virgin?" Ayesha said.

"Oh come on Ayesha, he had been married before!" Riya said back.

"Ok, how about he's just too shy to start anything! Maybe he has been waiting for you to start everything!" Ayesha said back, "Did you ever try to start anything before?"

"Well nope never!" Riya finally said thinking about the past month.

"Maybe you are right Ayesha, maybe i should take the first step," Riya concluded with a big smile. She knew how she was going to achieve this. She bent down and gave Ayesha a kiss on her cheeks and went away.

That night

They both had just finished dinner, and Riya disappeared in the bedroom. Arjun went to lock all doors, and decided that tonight it was going to be everything. He would listen to any of Riya's objections, his male pride was at stake today. And as from now on no cold shower for him, he said to himself in a determined voice. He opened his door and the sight in front of his eyes froze him there itself. Riya lay on the bed wearing one of the most outrageous nightie he had ever seen.

"Hi, hubby," she said huskily, and smiled at him. "Long day?"

"What the hell are you doing?" he asked completely confused.

She eased off the bed and stood up, so that he could get a good view of her creamy body under the gauzy fabric of her gown.

"I bought some new clothes, that's all, i wanted to show you them" she murmured drowsily. She did a pirouette and asked him, "So how do i look in them?

He was too shocked to even say anything. He couldn't believe his Riya was doing all this for him. She must think him impotent, at the least, to go so far to get him into bed, and this was a daunt on his ego. He alternated between anger and passion when he looked at her.

"What is this Riya?" he again asked while controlling his desires to ravish her.

"Dont you like it? Dont you like me?" Riya asked no longer sure.

"Well of course i like you and more, but why this?" Arjun asked.

"I... It was ... i mean i thought..." Riya started but not knowing how to say anything. She was feeling very bare now, not knowing what to do. Arjun wasn't behaving the way she had thought. So she turned and was going to run into the bathroom to change, when suddenly she felt herself be held and picked up.

He threw her onto the bed and before she could roll away, he had her pinned, one long leg holding her thrashing body.

He caught her wrists and pressed them into the mattress on either side of her head. Her hair was a dark cloud around her flushed face as she stared up at him confusedly, her silver eyes looking at him with passion.

"I thought you weren't interested?"Riya managed to say.

"Are you out of your mind, you are everything I ever wanted," Arjun said pleasantly.

"You don't want me," she said, her voice breaking as she tried to speak bravely about it. "You haven't ever tried anything. We even haven't had our SR"

"I tried Riya, but it always backfired, but not today," he whispered, smiling gently. "Here. Feel."

He moved slowly, sensuously, and something predictable and beautiful happened to him, something so blatant that she caught her breath.

"I want you," he said softly. "But it's much, much more than wanting," he breathed at her lips, brushing them with maddening leisure as he spoke.

He kissed her slowly, nibbling at her lower lip while she trembled with pleasure.

The kiss grew rough, and deep, and his lean hands found her hips, grinding them up against his fierce arousal.

"This is how much I want you," he bit off at her lips. "I hope you took vitamins, because you're going to need every bit of strength you've got."

She couldn't even speak. His hands were against her skin, and then his mouth was. She'd never in her wildest dreams imagined some of the ways he touched her, some of the things he whispered while he aroused her. He took her almost effortlessly to a fever pitch of passion and then calmed her and started all over again.

It was the sweetest kind of pleasure to feel him get the fabric away from her hot skin, and then to feel his own hair-roughened body intimately against her own. It was all of heaven to kiss and be kissed, to touch and be touched, to let him pleasure her until she was mindless with need.

"And now you know," Arjun whispered, kissing her eyelids closed after some time.

"Now I know." Riya hid her face into his damp throat out of shyness and clung while they slowly settled back to earth again.

"I love you Riya," he whispered lovingly.

Joy flooded through her. "I love you too Arjun!" she whispered breathlessly.

Arjun curled her into his body with a long yawn and they drifted off into a warm, soft sleep finally having had their SR.

Riya also no longer had any doubts about her Arjun anymore...

And as from then on, Arjun never ever had any cold showers...😉

The END...
