Tears rolled on his cheeks as he watched her. He wanted to touch her, to hold her till eternity , to caress her...
He wanted to hug her tightly to him melting her into him and never let go.
"Tere liye, tere liye
Tere liye, ham hain jiye, honton ko siye
Tere liye, ham hain jiye, har aansoo piye
Dil mein magar, jalte rahe, chaahat ke diye
Tere liye, tere liye"
She lifted her one hand and to touch his cheek to confirm if he was really there and all that
she could speak was… "Raj…….."
It was not 'Sir' but it was 'Raj'
She was too happy and shocked with the sudden event that she fainted, unable to take this sudden longing happiness.
Naina woke up sweating………
she was sweating and shivering a lot….
"This can't be a dream!" she thought and surveyed the room, she could see everyone……Aalekh, Huda, Dr.shalini…..almost everyone but she doesn't see him.
"Aalekh....." she called him and he came forward with tears in his eyes.
"Kehedo ki main sapna nahi dekh rahi………kehedo ki maine Rajveer sir ko dekha hai"
He started crying uncontrollably , as he too was at loss when Rajveer left them though not as much as her.
"Please Aalekh....Huda...tum...tum kaho naa kuch..."
"Ph..phoolan....", he could manage only this much.
"Sha...shalini mam...mam please....please aap toh kuch boliye..." , She pleaded.
While shalini tried to speak she could not due to overwhelming emotions.
She just turned her face side ways biting her lip unable to say anything.
Finally again turning back to Aalekh,"Aa..aa..Aalekh....tujh...tujhe....meri kasam hai..."
He was sobbing bitterly but he spoke out breathing hard……
"Woh waapis aagaye hai Naina....woh waapis aagaye hai!",and smiled at her…
Without even bothering about anyone , she rushed out to find him……
She searched the entire academy, running through the corridors , the field……..but she didn't find him….
And there was only one place left where she could find him, the place near the academy's bell……..
She saw him from a distance and Raj too noticed her….and stood there watching her unblinkingly.
She ran through the distance and skidded to stop just in front of him, shedding silent tears and looking into his eyes.....Raj too was looking into her eyes....their eyes fixed gazing into one another's eyes.(Guys! remember concentration game? kuch waise hi! )
Raj was lost in her beautiful eyes...
Naina's eyes were demanding Raj to understand her aspirations...
Well...he already understood the language of her heart....language of her love.....
He slowly opened his arms wide ,without breaking the eyelock, inviting her.
She smiled....smiled through her tears....and blushed.Her heart was racing. She looked at her feet for a while and then looked upto him,shyingly.
And.....she couldn't control anymore....
She rushed to his arms, she hugged him tightly, convincing herself that he was there with her….
He hugged her back fiercely…….they were unable to stop the tears coming out of happiness. Those tears washed away all their pain. Rajveer deepened the hug to feel feel her , possess her....while she melted in his arms. Their hug conveying each other that how much is their need for each other…….they hugged each other for what seemed the eternity…..
"Kaha...kaha... chale gaye the aap……mujh….mujhe akela chodkar……....aapko meri yaad nahi aayi?...mujhe aapki ...kitni jarurat thi",she hardly was able to speak.….but asked him hitting slightly on his back.
He parted himself and looked into her eyes with all the love he had……..
" Naina..."
She didn't looked up.She was annoyed for he left her.
" mujhe maaf kar do……I am sorry……", he said softly.
Still she didnt look up.She could feel his breaths on her face which was making her weak inside .She too had waited like anything for this moment to come.But when it had come, she was back to her old self!
But then...who else than Raj will tolerate her tantrums !!!
"Meri ore dekho Naina...", and he lifted her face to look into her eyes.
"I love you , Naina……. I love you"
His voice echoed in her ears....Today she was the happiest girl on this earth. At last he uttered these three magical words to her.
This was the world to her !!
He spoke about his love for her…….and she wanted nothing else…….she too confessed……
"I love u too"and she looked into those dark eyes……
He pulled her closer in his strong,secure arms….
He found himself staring in those large, beautiful eyes.....
Raj found himself being lost in those depths...in that face..
looking intimately at each other...
Her arms around his neck....& his hands around her waist...he was pulling her closer to himself as if lost ..they could hear each others breathing....coming in gasps.
And then as if shaken out of her reverie she suddenly pulled away....embarassed....and blushing hard.....only to find herself thrusted into those steady arms again.....
Their bodies gently brushing against each others....
He held her by her waist & pulled her to himself crushing her into him....& she melted into him as if they were always one..
They looked at each other as if trying to hold the moment....he bent & kissed her eyelids gently....
His head lifted , fingertips touching her temple,her hair, trailing along the curve of her
cheek to cup under her chin & lifting it...
He brushed his lips lightly on hers and paused. It sent shivers down her spine.
Then he kissed her lightly which was at first a caress,but deepened to stir her blood until it began racing through her body...
his arms crushing her further.....
They kissed for what seemed an eternity…….a blessing to their love……..
The kiss was demanding one from both sides, it borne out from a long separation…
Taking her lips into his, he sucked n licked them as if they were the sweetest thing his lips have ever tasted.
As her fingers played along his hair, with hard n soft variations, his hands remained still on her waist, too engrossed in the movement to move.
A current of emotions began to rush through all her veins, filling them with desires that
madly tempted them.....
He felt her shiver..& he clinged to her.....
Her response kindling flames in him that neither wished to control....
He was lost in her...
They parted breathing heavy trying to compose themselves…
"I will never leave you again, I will never let you be out from my eyes for even a second",he spoke becoming possessive about her…..
"Aap kaha chale gaye the Raj…..main yaha tadap rahi thi!...... Aapke liye……."
" Naina…….I was hiding these months…….to get some evidences that will prove Naveen innocent….and u know", he broke into a smile , " We are now successful….we have now gathered the needed information."
"Really!" her eyes sparkled and he nodded……
"Raj, yeh sab aapki wajahse hua hai....Aaj agar bhaiya innocent prove hote hai toh sirf aapki wajahse..."
"Ssshhhhh Naina....yeh tumahare aur mere beech tera-mera kaisa? Agar aaj main issmein successful hoon toh tumhare vishwaas ki wajahse....warna main akela toh.."
"Hmmmm.....ab kaun tera-mera kar raha hai?", she asked mischeivously and he let out a laugh.
They remained silent for God knows how long...Holding onto each other tightly....speaking volumes in silence…..and Raj broke the silence……
"Ab andar chale……..sab humara intezaar kar rahe honge. kahi aisa naa ho ki sab bahar aajaye..."
And she nodded happily….
