"Why did you refuse to eat the halwa?"
"I...I'm too full, that's all."
"And the crepe? You said no to that, too."
"I told you Arnav, I'm too full!"
"I don't think that's the reason at all. "
"What? Look, we really need to get out of this study. There's a party going on out there and sooner or later, someone is bound to notice our absence..."
"It's the Huangs' party, not ours. And I really don't care. Do you want to know what I think is the real reason for your new-found dessert abstinence?"
"I...what are you doing?"
"Just making sure you don't escape. "
"You have me pushed up against the door, I'm not going anywhere! There's no need to hold me here..."
"On the other hand, there's every need. You see, I think that the real reason is that the sight of those particular desserts makes you remember...other times. And those memories make you all hot and bothered. But don't worry, I have the perfect solution."
"A...glass of water?"
"Look again."
"Wait, there's no water there at all! Why do you have a glassful of ice-cubes?"
"Oh, they aren't for you. They are for me."
"What?"
I look across at her wide eyes and heaving chest, and I know that she is as aroused as I am at the moment. But her repeated glances towards the door behind her remind me that she hasn't completely forgotten where we are at the moment.
Luckily, I have the remedy.
Taking an ice-cube in my hand, I place it in my mouth, then lean forward until I am touching her neck.
The cold ice melts, and the water starts dribbling over her neck...down beneath the shadow of her cleavage.
I follow that path, but then still as her hands tighten in my hair.
"Maybe you are right, Khushi. Maybe we should go back outside after all."
"Wh...what?"
"Yes. There are still some things out there that you haven't tried. I could bring back the strawberries and cream, if you want. We could test it out...see which was paler...the cream, or the skin over your navel."
"Arnav...that isn't going to happen. Not here."
"No? Then how about the souffle? I could accomplish a great deal with that...and my tongue."
"No!"
In a sudden movement, she pushes against me so I stumble back, then turns the tables by pushing me up against the door instead.
"Khushi?"
"You might need all those desserts, Mr. Raizada...but I certainly don't. I need nothing , in fact. Nothing but you and me..."
"What? I..."
My words trail off as she leans in towards me, but she doesn't kiss me as I had expected her to.
Instead, she caresses my neck gently with one hand, then trails her fingers down my chest, and lower still...until she reaches the waistband of my pants.
But she doesn't stop there.
I close my eyes, forgetting all about ice and desserts and every other damn thing in the world.
Damn.
This woman is going to be the death of me.
