Thank You!!!

MAKES ME WONDER!!

"Shut up Nikki.. Hum log yahan mazaa karne aayen hai.. Sone nahi..", Rahul told her..

"Anyway its almost 8.. I think you should also get up..", Anjali looked at the watch as she said.. Though it was late the cold and the rain made them very lazy, not wanting to leave the warmth of their blankets.. She leaned back against Atul as she sat comfortably between his legs..

"Please sone do na yaar.. My body is still sore.. That trek was such a stupid idea..", she whined..

"Oye Nikki tujhe sona hai toh andar jaa.. Room mein so ja.. Yeh log toh chup nahi baithne waale..", Muskaan suggested to her.. Rahul and her were cuddled up in a single blanket as they sat with their backs against the couch..

"Haan sweetheart.. Go in and sleep.. I know you're really tired..", Abhi told her in a caring tone.. He knew she would be all irritated throughout the day if she didn't sleep well.. He went and sat on the couch, putting her head on his lap as he caressed it softly..

As all of them heard him, Sid, who was sprawled on the carpet, started teasing him about being a joru ka ghulam even before he got married, to make everone laugh at them.. Nikki got irritated and thought it was best to go in and sleep.. She really needed it.. She made her way into the girls room dragging her blanket behind her.. She opened the door sleepily and saw Armaan and Riddhima in the bed that she so wanted to occupy.. She frowned, then it hit her..., "What the hell is going on guys.. Armaan Riddhima.. Oh my god!!", she screeched on top of her voice, her plans to sleep long vanished in an instance..

Riddhima shifted a little, trying to turn sides, as she felt the cool breeze from the open terrace door caress her face lightly.. Subconsciously, she could hear the patter of raindrops from outside and smell the earthy redolence that wafted through that open door, which her sweetheart Armaan had forgotten to close in his sleepy state last night.. She of course had no idea as to what had actually happened and she didn't know what was happening either.. She was in the middle of a beautiful dream that she didn't want to break.. All the rain and the cool wind felt like a part of it all.. She just wanted to hide her face in the blanket and sleep on to continue her dream.. She tried turning, but was met with some resistance.. She frowned in her sleep as she couldn't turn.. So she tried getting hold of the blanket instead, to pull it up on her face.. As she moved her hand to do that, she felt Armaan's soft hair, that she had not let go all night.. She obviously didn't realize what it was, but her brain had sent signals to her that something was different, yet oddly familiar.. In that state between sleep and consciousness, her mind started working, trying to understand why she was feeling like something was weighing her down.. As soon as she got hold of the blanket and pulled it up, Armaan felt the movement and shifted his head, that still lay below her chin, to face the other side, and made himself comfortable moving closer into her.. Riddhima smiled in her sleep as she felt comfortable, and cradled him to her, feeling all warm.. She didn't want to turn anymore.. This was way too comfortable.. But her mind alerted her, that something was weird.. What it was, was still lost on her in her dream.. As that thought continued to trouble her she opened her eyes sleepily and tried adjusting them to the faint morning light that lit the cozy room, pulling the blanket off her face a little.. As she opened her eyes, her hand that was on Armaan's back suddenly realized where it was, and her eyes widened.. "Armaan.. ", she said softly, trying to look at his face to make sure it was him.. She was wide awake and extremely shocked to see Armaan sprawled right over her, his face hidden near her neck..She wasn't scared or horrified.. But it was weird the way he was so close to her.. She didn't really want to, but she knew she had to get him off her.. She wondered how they had come to be in this state.. She didn't want to startle him, so she prodded him gently, but as Armaan didn't seem to listen to her at all, she diverted her attention to look around trying to figure out where she actually was. Realizing they were in the bedroom', and on a single bed!!..., all cuddled up next to each other, the panic set in!.. "Armaan.. Get up' How did I .. Armaan!!", she finally raised her voice as she tried pulling him apart by the back of his white sweatshirt.. Armaan felt someone tugging at his clothes from behind and frowned deeply.. Who the hell had the nerve to disturb him when he was so comfortable and in the middle of the best sleep of his life!!.. Plus he was dreaming that he was snuggled up next to his Basket, as they were ensconced in a deep sea of fluffy blankets.. He smiled as he replayed his dream again.. And without giving a damn to the faint voice that called his name, he continued to sleep.. Riddhima smiled as he just pulled her closer, smiling silly and buried his head even closer into her if possible.. She pulled away to look at his face.. He looked so cute with that smile on his face.. But before she could give him a peck on his cheek, he had found her neck, burying his head again.. She realized he was really comfortable and still deep in slumber.. In fact she wished she wouldn't have woken up herself and continued this beautiful dream in his warmth.. But now that she was awake she couldn't not do anything about it.. She had to get him off before anyone found them like this.. "Armaan!! Get up!!! ", and she said it louder this time..

"Hmm", and he continued to sleep, smiling as he nuzzled into her hair.. Giving up on him, she tried to get out of his hold.. She moved his hands away from her waist as he shifted in his sleep again, but now his smile turned into a frown.. He just very authoritatively put his hands back to where they were and shifted himself even closer than before.. Riddhima got irritated now.. This wasn't cute any longer.. No doubt she was comfortable, but this proximity was getting to her now.. They weren't supposed to be here.. They were supposed to be in the living room.. Luckily no one had seen them till now!! "Armaan.. Please utho!! Don't make me hit you!!", she threatened him as she smacked him lightly on his head anyway..

Armaan finally heard her voice calling out his name angrily and then felt her hitting him.. He smiled, thinking it was all a part of his dream as he took in her sweet fragrance..

"Hmm..", was all he said before turning her over and again hiding his head in her hair sleepily.. She was such a hitler in his dream too, he thought!!

Riddhima had lost it now.. She had to get him out of his silly dream.. She roughly held his hair this time as she pulled his head away and kissed him full on the lips, pouring out all her anger.. Armaan initially didn't realize what happened and tried to get out as she tugged at his hair.. Then he recognized the feel of her lips on his.. He felt her kiss him furiously and he smiled between the kiss, realizing she was irritated.. His dream was getting wilder by the minute.. But when he started to respond, she pulled his hair again from behind, pulling his face away, to break the kiss abruptly, "That should wake you up.. UP!! Right now!!", she commanded as she glared at him..

He opened his eyes a little in confusion as to why he got that bitter sweet treatment.. His sleepy eyes adjusted to the sight in front of him as he whined, "I am sleeping na Riddhima.. Why are you..", but soon he realized that he was so close to her.. He was confused between his dream and the reality.. When he realized that both had been the same all along he panicked.. Shocked at the realization, he sprang up to sit straight, but fell back on her as they were bound by the blanket, "Oh crap.. I m sorry.. I ..", he pulled up a little as he saw her giggle at his reaction..

"Uh.. I .. ", he started again..

"Can we get up first and then have this conversation Armaan..", she asked him, trying not to smile.. Armaan saw her expression and realized she wasn't particularly disturbed by their closeness.. So he took a moment to enjoy it even further.. Its not everyday that he gets to live this dream.. She looked so beautiful in the faint glow of the morning.. The cool breeze sent a few strands of her hair on her eyes as she blinked.. "Armaan.. You do realize you are sleeping almost on me, don't you?.. Could you please get up.."

Armaan lightly caressed her cheeks as he put away the hair that was troubling her, "You're beautiful.. ", and he shifted form top of her to her side.. Riddhima blushed as he leaned in to her to wish her a good morning.. His kiss, as opposed to her furious one, was gentle wishing her a beautiful good morning.. Riddhima couldn't help but kiss him back, wishing that she wasn't in such a hurry to get him off her.. As he parted from her, "Armaan please..", she requested him to get up softly..

"What?? You want more?.. Ok", he bent in again.. But looking at her frown, he kissed her on her forehead and said, "I love you..", they looked into each others' eyes for a moment and smiled wide.. Finally Riddhima blushed and Armaan went 'oyye hoyye'.. He realized that they should shift back outside and pretend to sleep there before their friends catch them like this.. Devils that they were, they wouldn't let them forget this if they found them in this state.. So he tried to get up from the blanket that was entangled around them.. As he tried to do that he fell back on her again, "Armaan!!..", she was flustered but she couldn't stop blushing either.. Armaan was pretty embarrassed too.. He didn't know how to behave.. He faintly remembered getting up in the middle of the night and coming inside as it was too cold outside.. But he wasn't sure of how they ended up sleeping together.. And this was definitely the first time they shared a bed.. Not too sure of what he felt, he smiled sheepishly at her.. Riddhima saw him smile and smiled back a little hesitantly.. How was she to react.. Be angry, be happy?? All she could remember was that he had slept of with his head in her lap in the terrace.. She must have dozed off then.. Obviously he must have got her in.. But she didn't know what to make of him getting in with bed with her.. Maybe she didn't let him go.. Or maybe he didn't want to let go.. But then why did he look all surprised.. Inspite of this confusion she couldn't help but agree with one thing that she slept really peacefully.. Maybe they shouldn't talk about it.. They just cuddled together.. Not like anything happened..

Armaan just thought that he should get away by embarrassing her about it.. He grinned at his evil plan when he heard her.. "Armaan please.. If you're planning to tease me or trouble me about the fact that we slept together and stuff.. Just do it later ok.. Abhi utho.. Isse pehle ki koi aa jaaye..", she could see the evil machinations forming in his head clearly in that grin of his..

The grin got wiped off.. She knew him so well.. "I am getting up Basket.. Tum kaise soti ho.. Its all entangled..", he complained as he tried to figure out..

"Please! You were the one rolling around.. I couldn't even turn.. You were almost on me..", she retorted with a whine to his complaint.

"Yeah I know.. It was so comfortable.. I could sleep on forever..", he sighed, still trying the blanket off them, that was probably stuck under her..

"Hurry up.. I don't want you sleeping off again..", she smacked his arm as she too moved up a little, hoping to get out herself..

"Please after that wild kiss of yours you think I'll be able to sleep!!.. What was that anyway!.. I am not complaining.. It was indeed an awesome way to wake me up.. Only if you'd stop pulling my hair, it would have been more enjoyable.."

"Armaan stop talkin.."

"You stop moving.."

And they bickered on, trying to disentangle themselves.. At least Riddhima was.. Poor girl didn't know that Armaan was purposely entangling them in the blanket more as she got irritated by the second.. He was pretending to take off the blanket, when he actually was securing it under him acting like he didn't know what was going wrong.. Riddhima hit him on his head as she realized what he did, but before he could retort, they froze where they were, as they heard the door open and saw a slumberous Nikki enter the room with her blanket dragging behind her..

She stared at them with wide open eyes, as Armaan and Riddhima panicked looking at her.. Armaan who had entangled themselves in the blanket to irritate Riddhima was frantically trying to get out, "Nikki stop shouting.. Its not what it looks like.. We dozed off..", he tried to explain desperately as he kept falling on an angry but extremely embarrassed Riddhima who had decided to shut her eyes to avoid the embarrassment.. But Nikki didn't have to answer as the door opened again, "Nikki why did you shout.. Oh my god!!!", Abhi shouted as he saw the sight in front of him..

"Whats going on.. Why are you..", Anjali who had come in to see why they were shouting could not complete her sentence as she saw her sister and Armaan in BED!!!!

"ARMAAN!!! Get off her right now!!..", she shouted going near the bed.. "What the hell is going on.. And I thought you guys got up early to play basketball!!"

Abhi and Nikki burst out laughing at Anjali's reaction as Armaan had turned completely red now.. Riddhima wanted nothing more than to just kill him as he took forever to get up and she kept pushing him away.. It was so embarrassing.. Anjali's shout had attracted a lot of attention and now Rahul, Muskaan, Atul and Sid had also come to see what was going on.. As they saw a fuming Anjali towering over an embarrassed Riddhima and a very clumsy Armaan sprawled over her as he tried to get up, they were stunned for a moment and then burst out laughing.. "Oh my god!! These two are here..", Rahul said through his guffaws.. He was wondering where when he didn't find them in the living room.. He knew they must be coochi-cooing somewhere, but had never thought to see this..

"Armaan!!!", he heard Anjali shout again followed by raucous laughter from his evil friends.. Finally he fell off the bed in an attempt to get out in a hurry, sending them into wilder laughter..

Riddhima was so embarrassed, she just pulled the blanket over her face as Armaan stood up to face Anjali's wrath with his hands up, like she held him at gunpoint, "I .. I .. Swear.. Nothing.. You know.. We.. Woh.. Dozed off...", was all he could manage.. Abhi and Rahul snorted and Sid was now slumped on the couch, laughing like crazy.. Muskaan and Nikki leaned against the wall to support themselves as they laughed holding their stomachs..

"Stop it guys.. Tum sab bahar jao..", Anjali ordered them seriously and they stopped laughing, trying very hard to control it..

Atul was laughing, but he knew he'd have to control Anjali, so he moved forward, "Anjali.. "

"Tum beech mein mat bolo Atul..", she scolded him before he could say anything.. She had been shocked beyond words when she had seen them wrapped in that blanket, but when she realized both were fully clothed she calmed a little.. But that did not justify them sleeping in one bed.. "Armaan Riddhima.. ", Riddhima sat up straight slowly dreading a tirade as she heard her sister's stern voice.. "Agar tum dono ki neend poori ho gayi ho, toh please could you come out.. Breakfast's ready", her voice was still surly.. Without waiting for an answer, she marched out of the room.. Atul snorted as she left the room and burst into fits of laughter, "What were you guys thinking.. " and he too left the very embarrassed pair in the room.. Armaan's face broke into a grin as he saw him leave.. He never thought he would be caught like this.. This had to be the most embarrassing moment of his life.. But if he saw it from a third person's point of view, he found it extremely hilarious.. "Don't you dare!! Don't you dare smile Armaan.. I swear I'll punch you..", Riddhima pointed an angry finger at him and went into the washroom to freshen up.. But Armaan's smile didn't efface as he left the room to go to his.. He knew his friends were going to give them a hard time about it..
