Chapter 7Shravan arrives at home nearly 10pm. He looks around, all are must be in their own rooms. He sighs, looking here & there for Suman without making any sound. His gaze stops at Suman, standing in front of him, crossing her arms over her chest, watching him playfully with a smirk. He looks away. They were supposed to go out for dinner, isn't it? She ditched the plan. His gaze again meets hers, she smiles at him but he ignores her gesture. She giggles. He goes to their room. She follows him.
: Everyone is out, went to chachi's sister's home, they'll return at late night I guess. Or may be...
: Did I ask?
: No.
: Then?
: I felt like informing you, hubby - she pouts.
He glares at her, let her know that he is angry with her for canceling their first date. He takes out towel from closet & goes to bathroom while she sits back on the bed, humming a song happily.
After a while, he comes out. She is not there in the room.
---
: You must be hungry, go & have your dinner.
: How do you know I haven't eat yet?
He looks at her knowingly, she just smiles. He knows she doesn't eat before him. Its neither compulsory nor any responsibility. She just loves to do it. Thats it. And he knows it.
: I can't eat alone, none is at home so forget it - she tries hide a smirk.
: As your wish - He ignores her puppy eyes.
: Arey!! How rude! Won't you ask for twice, hubby? - She pouted.
: Why didn't you go along? - He questioned in annoyance, as unable to ignore those eyes.
She sighs in content. She steps toward him smiling, he looks on surprisingly. She closes the distance between them & puts her soles over his, locking her arms around his neck. He holds her by her waist for to support. She smiles & leans on, whispers in his ear.
: Because I didn't want to miss this moment, this new feeling. I want to live this moment, this new feeling with you. Its been one week of our marriage but I can't stop thinking about you for a second. I can't stop recalling our each and every moments, I can't resist myself staring at you, hubby!
: Sum...
: Shhh.. today is my day.
She breaks the hug, he feels emptiness for a moment. And then Mrs. Suman Shravan Malhotra sits on her knee in front of her husband, forwarding her hand to him.
: Hey Mr. 6 feet 4 inch, will you let me spend my whole life beside you? Will you let me wake you up every morning by kissing your nose? Will you let me text you those silly poems everyday when you're at work? Will you let me wait for you the whole day & hug me the moment you'll return at home? Will you let me stare at you the whole night & play with your hair? - She utters those beautiful lines most delightfully that swelled his heart with love.
Those pure tears from her beautiful eyes said it all, said how much simplicity her feelings hold.
: Suman!! It should be me, sitting on my knees, expressing what I feel about you!
: Haaah! I said its my day. You try any other day!
He chuckles, nodding his head & holds her hand.
: Yes, Mrs. Silly Pretty woman, I'll let you wake me up with feeling those luscious lips on my stubble, face, eyes wherever you want! I'll wait for your heartfelt texts everyday, I'll lift you in my arms everyday after coming back from office, no matter who's around or not! I'll make you utter my name every night with every romantic way! - He says kissing her hand.
She gets up & jumps into a hug. He lifts her in a bone crushing hug.
Lamha Lamha Doori Yun Pighalti HaiJaane Kis Aag Mein Yeh Shabnam Jalti Hai
Khwaahishon Ki Shaam Dhalti Hain...
Jaane Kis Aag Mein Yeh Shabnam Jalti Hai
They break the hug after a long time, not letting the moment to end. She takes him to the balcony. He gets stunned. There are red-white balloons everywhere on the floor, there is small table in middle, he smiles & looks at Suman but she is not there. He looks around.
After a while she comes back, wearing a beautiful red saree with black sleeveless blouse, loosened hair covering her back, with light makeup. He can't take his eyes off. She is pure bliss. She holds his hand & takes to the table, she lights up the candle. There are all his favourite dishes prepared for a perfect dinner.
: I am impressed, Mrs. Malhotra!
: You should be, Mr. Malhotra.
They feed each other lovingly & have an eyelock session. They stands holding the railing, looking at the moon. She places her head on his forearm, intertwining their hands.
: This is the most romantic evening of my life.
: This will be the most romantic night of your life too! Technically its our first night - smirks.
She blushes furiously.
: Shut up!
: What? I told the truth, my lord.
She turns crimson red, smiling.
: So tell me, how did this candle light dinner plan come into your mind after ditching my dinner plan?
: Hmm I thought you must be sad and angry with me..I can't let my hubby sleep sad you know..
She tucks into his warmth more. She is adorable, it feels so wonderful so blissful being around her.
: Whats in desert? - he asks.
: Dark Chocolate Mousse! Your favourite - she says smiling.
: I see a better option, in fact best - he says leaning toward her lips.
She pushes him back blushing & runs. He follows her. They come in the terrance, where there are pillows & mattress arranged already. She stops huffing, her chest is heaving not because of running but thinking whats coming up next. He steps toward her smiling. Finally he reaches near her, intertwining her hand with own, he makes her look at him by holding her chin softly. Their eyes meet. He looks at her lips, she holds his hands tightly, closing her eyes. He smiles, closing the distance between them by taking her luscious lips into his. When a soft peck turned into a passionate kiss - they never know.
Teri Aankhen Dikhati HaiHamein Sapanen Sitaaron Ke
Tere Hothon Pe Likha Hai
Jo Tum Bole Ishaaron Mein
Khwaabon Ke Karwaan Mein Raat Chalti Hai
Jaane Kis Aag Mein Yeh Shabnam Jalti Hain
Breaking the kiss, he takes her into a heartwarming hug and she wipes her tears, tears of being loved.
Shravan & Suman sit on the mattress, never taking his eyes off from her, while she's unable to meet his intense gaze at her, blushing. He moves the hair strands which were covering her beautiful face. She blushes more under his touch. Something is changed so suddenly. He enjoys her view.
: By God why are you reacting like this, come on wifey! We're legally wedded husband wife. Don't tell me you don't know that it happens with every married couple! And by the way, I loved that red hot lipgloss, can I taste it once more? - he laughs playfully.
And this is it, she throws a pillow on him, turning red. He catches it, so she throws one more. And this is continued till she gives up. He holds her wrists all on a sudden, and they fall together, he is on top of her. She looks into his eyes, darken with desire. He leans on, but this time to the base of her neck, Kissing lightly. She closes her eyes, feeling the pure pleasure, and he continues his work on her soft delicate skin. He blows on her hair strands over her face. Her breathing gets hitched. She closes the distance between them and pulls him into a hug.
Behakti Shaam Aayi HaiTujhe Lekar Ke Baahon Mein
Tujhe Chhu Loon Ke Rakhu Main
Chhupakar Ke Nigaahon Mein
Sharmati Ithlaati Hai Machalti Hai
Jaane Kis Aag Mein Yeh Shabnam Jalti Hain
Ho Lamha Lamha Doori Yun Pighalti Hai
Jaane Kis Aag Mein Yeh Shabnam Jalti Hai
Khwaahishon Ki Shaam Dhalti Hain...
Jaane Kis Aag Mein Yeh Shabnam Jalti Hai

: Hey Suman! Why are looking different? I mean are you okay? - Pushkar asks casually.
And the whole family look at their newly wedded daughter in law. She just smiles weakly. Shravan, who is sitting silent smiles little. He signals her to hide her neck properly as the marks of their make out session were clearly visible. She gets nervous & wraps her veil more around her neck, while Shravan giggles.
: What happened bro? So happy..haan? - Pushkar says teasing.
: Yeah it was a beautiful day after all - he says looking at Suman.
: Really? So you like going office? - Ramnath asks in a serious tone.
Shravan gets interrupted. Now its Suman's turn to chuckle.
: Yup, its good, papa!
: Good keep it up, son!
Everyone leaves the living room, except Shravan & Suman. He gets up & steps toward her slowly.
: So where we were before? - he grins.
: Hmm?
: There, where our romantic moment got interrupted because my "Hum saath saath hai" family decided to get back at home at 1am nearly! - he huffs, little annoyed.
She giggles.
: Are you enjoying? I mean aren't you annoyed?
: Not at all! And in fact I am enjoying your annoyance! - she says pulling his nose playfully in between two fingers.
: In that case, lets resume our session - he leans on.
: Ewww! We're at living room, Shravan, anyone can come & see! - she pushes him back, though she doesn't want to.
: Hold on! Does that mean you're suggesting our very own bed room?
: May be - she smirks.
And he smiles, this girl never fails to amaze him.
: I hope you know how much amazing you're.
: I know but I won't mind getting reminded by you, Hubby! - she blinks.
He takes her into arms shocking her.
: Woah!! Put me down right now, everyone is at home and I don't want to get embarrassed in front of family!
: How unromantic!
He doesn't listen and starts walking toward their room, while Kamini's voice stops him.
: Suman beta...
: Yes Chachi - she shouts, immediately not willing to let chachi come & see them like this.
He puts her down. Kamini reaches to them.
: Beta, I'm having headache, do you have any medicine?
: Chachi, no need to eat medicine,come with me I'll message your head & your headache will get vanished in minutes.
: So sweet of you, beta. I am going to my room.
: Yeah I am coming, chachi.
Kamini leaves. Suman looks at her husband, smiling.
: No need make that saddy face, we'll surely resume the session tonight! See you hubby! - She quickly places a kiss on his cheek & runs.
He smiles, caressing his cheek where she kissed just now.

Suman entered her room nearly at 2am. Shravan is asleep. She sighs smiling, slowly stepping toward her sleeping husband. She sits in front him, on the floor, tucking her fingers into his hairs softly. She is about to get up but a pair of strong arms hold her, taking on the bed, underneath him.
: You were awake? - she says surprisingly.
: Silly, its our wedding night. How could you think I would sleep so easily, wifey?
She smiles.
: So...where we were? - he leans on, she closes her eyes, while someone knocks at th door.
: Oh God! Who's there at 2am, disturbing a newly married couple? - he utters annoyed.
They get up, she sets her saree properly on her body & opens the door, finds a half sleepy Varun there.
: extremely Sorry to disturb you, Suman can you sleep with Vandy tonight? I'll sleep here with Shravan.
: Sure bhaiya but whats the matter.
: Don't ask, dear. Vandy kicked me out from the room, just because I said she looks fat nowadays.
Suman controls her laughter hardly, forming a serious facial expression. While Shravan tucks his head into the pillows hearing the replacement news. Suman could get her husband's concern, but nothing to do! She lets her brother in law to enter & leaves the room, eyeing at Shravan while he watches her going curving lips like small kid.
---
: How dare he! He called me fatso! Can you imagine, Suman? - Vandy fumes.
: Bhabi but he apologised naa? - she tries to defend her brother in law.
Vandy looks a little convinced.
: Yeah actually I put on some weight too, isn't it?
: Bhabi, no matter what form you gain, you'll be beautiful always. Trust me.
: Aww you're such a sweetheart! Don't what is he doing now! And Suman, what are you doing here at this late hour? Shravan bhaiya must be searching for you?
: Nope. Bhaiya is with him. He knows I am with you.
: What? Varun is in Shravan's room? This brainless creature, I tell you. Uff. You two are newly married and he got into younger bro's room without thinking anything!?
: Its okay bhabi!
: No its not! Come with me!
Vandy goes to Shravan's room, with Suman. The brothers are sleeping. Vandy makes Varun wake up & almost dragged him toward their own room. Suman smiles, wishing them good night, closes the door.
Shravan is sleeping so peacefully that she doesn't feel like waking him up. She switches the light off & lays beside him tucking into his arms lovingly
