chap 7

Thanksgiving Day went perfectly. Yuvi and Swapna were in a good mood when they walked through the door. Swapna even hugged me, which was surprising to say the least. She had never been the biggest fan of me, but something had changed while I was gone. Yuvi ate everything that I made him. He looked happy as he stuffed down the last bite of my brownies.

I was glad to see that my assumptions of Amit trying to push Yuvi and me together were wrong. He was so distracted by what Sue was saying that he didn't even notice us. That was odd, but I really didn't think twice about it.

This morning was the terrifying part. I had made an extra batch of brownies after the Clearwaters left yesterday to calm my nerves, and I was going to bring it with me to the Grover's. I left one brownie with a note telling Amit where I would be. I didn't want to mention Karan, so I simply told him I was going to meet the new doctor before my next ER visit. He would get a kick out of that.

I pulled out my one presentable skirt and a blue sweater and headed downstairs. I didn't even have time to start fidgeting before there was a knock on the door. I grabbed the plate of brownies and headed toward the door. I didn't really want him to come inside the house. From the way he had talked about his previous homes, my house would seem like a dump. I stepped out on to the porch and locked the door behind me. I didn't really need to. There was nothing dangerous in India. "Okay, ready to go." I finally smiled up into those emerald green eyes that had been in my dreams since the first time I'd seen them.

"Yeah…you know you didn't need to bring anything. My mom will have more than enough there."

I rolled my eyes, "I was raised to never show up empty handed. BeSides, I know for a fact that both you and Pankit love these brownies."

He eyed the brownies in a way that told me I was right. I began to walk to his car and I could hear him behind me. I got in the car and waited silently to arrive at the house.

Karan cleared his throat. His knuckles were white against the steering wheel and he kept his eyes straight ahead. "Are we going to talk about it?"

I kept my eyes on the brownies in my lap. "I suppose we could, but we don't have to." I didn't know if I was ready to.

"Shilpa, before I face my family, I have to know how you feel."

I blushed, irritated with myself for putting my hair up in a ponytail. I couldn't use it to hide behind. "Karan, I…" I didn't know what to say. I couldn't tell him that I was head-over-heels for him. That every time I close my eyes, I see him. That I haven't been able to get him completely out of my mind since that day that he caught me on the Sidewalk.

I was still thinking my response through when Karan pulled up in front of the old house. I looked up and realized that the description no longer applied. It was big, white, and beautiful. I couldn't imagine the work that had gone into making it look so amazing. "Shilpa." Karan pulled me out of my ogling. He was looking right at me. "Please, Shilpa. I've been trying to figure it out for months, but you're so quiet and reserved. Until a couple of days ago, I've had absolutely no hope that you might have liked me back. Shilpa please, it's killing me, I have to know."

I was stunned beyond all belief. Karan liked me. I must have imagined that. I wanted to pinch myself, but I was afraid the beautiful dream would end. I looked into his eyes and was stunned by the emotion there.

"Shilpa, breathe." I hadn't realized that I was holding my breath, but I did notice that I felt better once my body had obeyed his order. He sighed and shook his head like he had heard something he didn't like. "I understand, you don't have to say anything." He turned away and stepped out of the car.

My mind pulled everything together a moment too late. "Karan wait," I reached for him, but he was no longer there. I jumped out of the car after him, dumping the brownies in the grass and leaving the Volvo door open. I caught his hand, nearly tripping in the attempt to get to him. "Karan…hold…on…a second." I was trying to catch my breath.

He tried to steady me. "Shilpa relax. It's okay."

I didn't listen to him, I had to tell him. "Karan, you took me by surprise. It's not that I don't like you, it's that I didn't know that you liked me. I…I didn't know what to say." I had gone into full babble mode. "Karan, I like you. I like you a lot. I've liked you since…" Karan interrupted me by taking hold of my lips with his. All my words were gone.

When he pulled away to breath, hugged me tightly to his chest. I felt comfortable and safe there. I let the smell of him surround me.

I wasn't ready to go inside and meet his parents, but eventually I looked up at him. "I'm sure they're wondering why we haven't come inside yet."

He nodded, "Probably."

I reluctantly pulled from his arms. I turned back to get the brownies that were upside down in the grass. I was glad to see that I remembered to saran wrap them. I closed the Volvo door and picked up the brownies. They were slightly smooshed, but I knew that Pankit would eat them anyway.

"Are you ready?" He asked, surprising me by how close he was.

"Not even a little bit," I admitted shakily. "Let's go."

He kissed my forehead before wrapping his arm around my waist and leading me toward the house. I noticed that he seemed happier, as if some burden had been lifted from him. I couldn't believe that the boy that I was falling for had felt the same way about me all along. I sighed happily and leaned into him a little.

I felt like my heart was going to pop out from chest but then I realized that his name is written in my heart I couldn't control my blushing thinking of that Karan loves Shilpa.Let's make a pet name for both of us Karan Shilpa "hmmmm".Yipee KASH I got it our pet name would be Kash.

Before we were fully inside, I was enveloped by a woman with honey chestnut curls. She smelled slightly of cinnamon. I imagined her in the kitchen most of her day. When she pulled back to look at me, I saw that she was as beautiful as her son. Her face had soft gentle curves that were complimented by her hair. Her eyes were a light brown color, very similar to Pankit's. Her smile widened as she took me in, "Shilpa, I'm so glad to finally meet you. All I've heard about since my boys have been back is you." I blushed on cue as she spoke. "Pankit tells me all about how you've kept them from starving and Karan seems to smile every time someone mentions your name."

"Mom," Karan grumbled behind me. I had to laugh. He sounded almost as embarrassed as I had been when Pankit caught us kissing.

"You can't deny your reaction son. That goofy grin hasn't left your face." I turned to see the new voice. He was just as beautiful as his sons. I couldn't even imagine how I looked here in this room. My plain looks were no doubt in obvious contrast. Again I questioned Karan's interest in me.

"Hello Shilpa. I hope you haven't had too much trouble taking care of my sons." His smile almost made me forget the Grover that I was falling for.

"N-no, of course not, Dr. Grover." I tried to smile up at him.

"It's Billy, Shilpa," I nodded at the beautiful Doctor.

"Shilpa!" Pankit'ts booming voice came from the top of the stairs. "I didn't hear you get here." He was down the stairs and across the room quicker than human speed should have allowed. He had me in a bear hug that cut off all oxygen and pinned the plate of brownies between us vertically.

"Pankit…can't…breath." I was able to get out.

"Pankit, put the poor girl down. I hope that you treat her with more respect than this when you're at school." Sonia's motherly chiding made me smile.

Pankit placed my feet on the floor and scratched the back of his head. "Sorry, Shilpa. I was just so excited to see you. I'm not used to going more than a few hours without seeing you." Pankit had a sheepish look on his face.

I patted his arm to soothe both him and Sonia, "Its okay Pankit. Just don't forget how strong you are next time." I was smiling by the end. Being around Pankit was like being around a little kid, and there was no way I could be mad at him.

He smiled back at me and pulled me under his arm. He threw what looked like a gloating look at Karan. I saw Karan roll his eyes, but I couldn't figure out what had passed between them.

Sonia watched how her boys interacted with me and smiled. "Shilpa, would you like to bring those brownies to the kitchen?"

I laughed, "I'm not sure how good they'll be now that Pankit's smashed them."

Pankit looked horror-struck, "I smooshed the brownies?"

I laughed at Pankit's expression, "I'm sure they're still edible Pankit."

Sonia shook her head, "It appears that my boys may like your cooking more than mine."

Pankit pulled me to his mom and kissed her on the cheek, "Nah, mom. I just hate for perfectly good brownies to go to waste." It didn't matter how nervous I was. I would have been rolling on the floor if Pankit hadn't been holding me up.

Sonia smiled and pulled me into the kitchen. I put the brownies down on the counter and followed her up to the cabinet. I helped her set the table quietly. It was peaceful to be around Sonia. She seemed so happy to have me here. It felt so nice that I didn't want to break the silence. She spoke first. "It's so nice to have another woman in the house. You can't imagine how crazy it gets around here with the three of them." Though the words were bitter, her tone was amused. It was obvious that she loved the life that she had. And I couldn't blame her. There was nothing not to love about her sons.

I just smiled at here. I couldn't think of anything to say. I was happy just like this. Preparing the table with this amazing woman.

I heard loud laughter and turned to look in the living room. Pankit had Karan pinned on the ground. I watched as Karan reached around a flipped Pankit over his head. It was funny to watch. Karan was so much smaller than Pankit, but he didn't seem to have any problem holding his own.

"Boys, must you act so ridiculously when we have a guest?" Sonia was shaking her head next to me.

"Aw mom, Shilpa sees us at like this all the time." Where was Sunaina when you needed her? Pankit needed to shut up.

Sonia just continued to shake her head and headed to the oven. "Go wash up for lunch boys. It will be ready in a few moments."

They raced up the stairs and a door slammed shut. "Ow, bro. That hurt." I had to laugh. It was obvious that my Grover had won the race.

"They are so childish sometimes." Again I could tell that Sonia was more amused at her sons' behavior than anything else.

Billy walked into the room and pulled Sonia's back against his chest as he kissed her cheek. I felt like a Peeping Tom being in the room with them. They looked so right together. I couldn't imagine either of them with anyone else.

"Shilpa?" I was relieved when Karan saved me from the awkwardness of spying on his parents. He took my hand and pulled me to the dining table.

"So have you started to look for the vampires yet?" I couldn't really think of anything else to say to him. What do you say to the person who you just spilled your guts to?

"Nah, I wanted to save that till you and I had more time."

"So, Shilpa," Pankit was bounding into the room. "I hear you two are finally official." How is it that Pankit always knows how to make me blush?

I looked up at Karan and he was smiling. I took that to mean that we were. "Yeah, I guess we did."

"Does that mean that you won't make my bro sleep on the couch anymore?" Can I do anything but blush?

"My baby's been sleeping on the couch?" Sonia sounded slightly worried.

"Well Shilpa's been in his bed." Pankit seemed intent on making me embarrassed.

"Only a couple of times." I was hoping I could clear it up. "I fell asleep on the couch a few times and he carried me to his bed so I'd be more comfortable. He really should have left me on the couch." I tried to breathe, but I was waiting for Sonia to respond.

"Did it ever occur to you that you could have shared the bed?" I watched Karan's jaw drop while he looked at his mother.

I giggled, "I told him the same thing, but he was convinced it was ungentlemanly."

"Dude, you mean she told you that you could sleep with her and you took the couch anyway. Are you gay?" Sonia popped Pankit upside the head while I squeezed Karan's fingers. I didn't want him diving across the table at his brother.

"Karan did the right thing. He was respectful of the woman he cares about." Stupid blush. "Dear, are you all right?"

I ducked my head as Karan chuckled next to me. He found my easy blush amusing. I couldn't come up with an answer so I merely nodded and kept looking at the table.

I was glad when the subject dropped. Everyone sat down to eat the lunch that Sonia had created. It was as amazing as all three of the boys had described. It was no more than soup and sandwiches, but I couldn't imagine how she managed to make it taste better than anything I'd ever gotten at a five star restaurant, not that I'd been too many.

Billy was telling a story from the hospital. I was trying to figure out why the story sounded so familiar to me. "Apparently the girl tripped in the middle of the hospital hallway and knocked over the row of wheelchairs." I spewed out the water that had just passed my lips and clasped my hand over my mouth.

"Are you okay, dear?" Sonia's face was full of concern.

"M-hm" I didn't want to tell them that it was me, but my cherry tomato face tipped Karan off.

He started to chuckle. "You have got to be kidding me."

"Dude, did I miss something?" Pankit looked at my red face and then his brother who was now in an uncontrollable fit of laughter.

"She…knocked over…the wheelchairs." Karan somehow managed to get out between his paroxysms of laughter.

I saw realization dawn on the faces of his family. Pankit burst into laughter. I was not going to live this down. Sonia looked concerned and Billy looked as though he was trying to hold back laughter.

"You know, young lady. You have quite a reputation down at the hospital. I hear a new story about you every day."

I sunk lower in my seat and shaded my face with my hand. "I'm aware."

Karan's laugh was all that I could hear. "Then I guess it wouldn't surprise you how we met." Karan went into a detailed description of what our first meeting was like. Everyone at the table but me was laughing. Sonia was polite at first, but she wasn't able to hold out for long.

"Dear, maybe you should watch where you're going."

"I completely disagree." Karan's face was serious. I couldn't figure out what he was saying. "If she had not fallen on me that day, I may never have met her. I'll take a clumsy Shilpa over no Shilpa any day." I looked into his eyes and saw no joking light. He meant absolutely everything he'd said.

As we stared into each other's eyes, the atmosphere changed. He began to lean in and I was held captive by his eyes.

Just as our lips were about to touch someone cleared their throat. But how gruff it was, I'm guessing that it was Pankit. I pulled back and looked down at the table. I heard Billy chuckle and chairs squeak as the table was cleared.

I didn't know if I could look at them ever again.
