Moments-AN Drabbles: Promo-pg6

"Why?" Even as she sarcastically asked this her eyes once more slid down to glance at his bare chest. Forcing herself to look back up at Dr. Abhimanyu Modi and focus on their conversation she willed herself to not start blushing. "...does it matter what I do during my break?" ...is it just me or is his shirt more unbuttoned than usual..."Boss of Sanjeevani or not, you can't control what I do during my free hours!"

She barely noticed as Abhimanyu rolled his eyes and raised them heavenwards in exasperation as once again her eyes slid to his muscled chest. Swallowing hard she glanced in the opposite direction only to have her eyes once more on his chest a split second later. Once more she forced herself to look away...at the ground, down the hallway, anywhere but at him. God, why is it getting so hot all of a sudden...Swallowing again she resisted the urge to fan herself.

"See here, Dr. Nikita!" Niki crossed her arms over her chest in annoyance before glancing towards him and once more becoming distracted...He looks really good in that shirt-NO-Come on, Niki! Focus! "....This is still a hospital-"God, how much does he work out...? "Do what you want during your break, but-"

Niki let out a growl of frustration cutting the angry doctor off midrant. "Dr. Nikita-"

Frustratrated and tired of not being able to focus Niki took two steps closer to Abhimanyu and grabbed the shocked man by his unbuttoned collar. "Niki-huh-wha-...?" The handsome doctor stuttered even as Niki quickly and efficiently buttoned up his shirt until only the last two buttons were left...debating on whether to leave them alone or not she decided to let them be as she didn't want him looking too prudish...just didn't want him distracting her is all...

With a smile she fixed his jacket collar and smoothed out the front for him before patting him on the chest and backing away. "Sorry, it was distracting me." Brushing back her hair and crossing her arms over her chest she smiled innocently up at the still gaping man in front of her and motioned for him to continue. "You were ranting...?"

"Um...yes...I mean, no...I was not ranting, Nikita!" He snapped trying desperately to pull himself together.

"You were ranting." Niki deadpanned.

Before Abhimanyu could retort Niki's beeper went off and she happily excused herself to go deal with it leaving a still reeling Abhimanyu in her wake, his thoughts racing a hundred miles per hour...just what the heck had happened here?

I hate him.

Armaan just rolls his eyes and tells me to leave the "poor guy" alone..."poor guy"...*snort*...yeah right!

Rahul agrees with Armaan, going even further by saying that we should show him respect as he's the boss! Respect and him! Puh-lease!

Anjali and Riddhima just shake their heads and pat me on the shoulder consolingly...after they tell me to get a life.

And Atul-he actually had the nerve to say that he wasn't so bad and could even turn out to be a nice guy if I gave him a chance! A nice guy and that Sadhu-in some alternate universe maybe!

Muskaan, thank god, at least is fully sympathetic. She even volunteered to help me make his life miserable...sigh...such a sweetheart.

But honestly, I don't need help making life miserable for that-that "Machar" as Muskaan calls him! He made a big mistake entering my life...through Sanjeevani, I mean. U know, he entered Sanjeevani so he entered my life...umm yeah...so back to the point at hand, he made another big mistake by taking over the hospital and turning MY I mean all of our lives upside down! I mean, who gave him the right to fire Dr. Keerti or to get rid of all the nonpaying patients! Horrible, terrible, idiotic man! Sure he helped out with the concert and even brought Dr. Keerti back but the damage was done! Don't know why the others have forgiven him and decided to just let him be...He obviously hasn't changed! It's just an act!

And so I hate him.

First of all, I hate that arrogant strut of his...walking, no strutting around the hospital like he owns the place. I mean sure he's the boss but I don't see Dr. Shashank swaggering around like him! And so of course I have to make sure he trips...serves him right! But of course he can't even trip properly, has to pull me down with him...

Hate the way his arms wrap around me, stopping me from hitting the floor and taking the burnt of the fall...Idiot!

And I hate the way his arms tighten around me...almost protectively...like I need any protecting! Stupid! How dare he continue to hold me...and then have the nerve to ask me-ME if I'm comfortable where I am since obviously I don't have any plans of getting off of him! Can you believe that?! The nerve of the man! Look who's holding who! And why on Earth would I want to stay in his arms...that's the last place on Earth I'd like to be!

And I hate that stupid smirk of his...the one that causes my stomach to do flips...in pure annoyance and anger of course. Why else would it turn and twist like it does? Because their's nothing attractive about that smirk that he gives me while arrogantly asking if his arms are the last place I want to be then why I still haven't moved away yet. Stupid! Stupid! ...*smirk*... but he glares when I point out that he hasn't let go of me yet either!

I hate that it suddenly seems colder as soon as he lets go and I roll off of him and stand up...lazy maintenance people need to come and fix the air conditioning in this building. And isn't it his job to make sure that the hospital is in perfect order! So obviously its him that's lazing off and not doing HIS job properly!

Hate that stupid unbuttoned shirt of his! What is wrong with him? Doesn't he know how to dress professionally! It has to be illegal for someone like him to wear a shirt like that. Armaan and Rahul and Atul and anyone else are okay because…well just because. But him…no way! Its too distracting and then he wonders why no one can focus! idiot! Its his fault!

Hate it when he calls me Niki. He has no right to call me that; no right to make those two syllables sound so…so-I don't know! He just shouldn't call me Niki is all, safer-I mean more professional to stick with Dr. Nikita! Cause that's who I am!

Hate his eyes the most. The way they look at me as if they can see right through me…Not that I'm afraid…on the contrary I do like to think that he may be a bit afraid of me...*looks smug*... but they're still unnerving, his eyes…a milk chocolaty color that have the ability to trap me-anyone within them…that's how he rules Sanjeevani obviously! Ensnares everyone with his eyes while he yells and shouts at them!

But most of all I hate when he turns around and walks-NO storms away…hate it cause obviously he's dismissed me or decided to ignore me cause I'm just not worth it...Who does he think he is! Dismissing me! Ignoring me! No one ignores me! Idiot…just wait till next time.
