"Glitter glues, pencil pouch, lip-gloss, Altoids, nerds, check!" Nupur said while cross-checking the list.

Swayam and Nupur had come for a shopping spree to buy stuff for his nieces back home.

"Um, Swayam, we have finished off most of the stuff on the list. And the rest isn't available here, maybe we could try at the mall tomorrow." Nupur suggested.

"Hm, in any case I can't stay in this shop any longer. I am exhausted!" Swayam declared.

"So, when is the competition?" Nupur asked while giving the items at the cash counter.

"The 30th of this month." he replied giving the money.

"Hm.. That is like 10 days away!" she said calculatingly.

"Exactly dear! So, what next? Let's grab a bite somewhere." he offered.

"Yeah sure. I am starving!" she declared.

Hey baby when we are together, doing things that we love..

Swayam's phone rang as they started to attack the plate of pasta in front of them.

"Hey Mac. Wassup?" Swayam said, picking the call up.

"Erm, nothing. Actually I called to inform that our practices for the competition start today in the evening, so come to the studios by 5 .. Okay?" Mayank replied.

"Sure dude, I'll be there by 5! And yeah, have you registered?" Swayam asked.

"Yeah, Vicky did it! And also, teams from all over the globe would be coming, we have tough competition dude!" Mayank said matter-of-factly with a hint of nervousness.

"Oh Geez. Is that so? Now only God can save us. Anyways. I'll see you at the studios then! Bye." Swayam replied.

"Okay! Bye. See you then!" Mayank said ending the call.

"So, what was Mayank saying that you sounded so tensed?" Nupur questioned Swayam sipping her can.

"Um, see the thing is we would be having very very tough competition, crews from all around the globe would be coming for it, and we really need to buck up!" Swayam replied, sighing.

"Hm. But I know, you guys can do it. So, Sam! What next?" Nupur asked, wiping herself with a tissue paper.

"Let's hit the studios. I'm sure you want to meet Mayank as well!" Swayam added the last part teasingly.

"Guys, let's enter the competition I say! We would also get a chance to see how other dancers are and what the standards are to get in to the dancing world. What say?" Sharon asked her gang sitting in Rey and Kria's apartment.

The Gang had now opened a joint institute, where they taught kids and teenagers how to dance at a very low level. And, they were discussing the same Dance competition that Swayam and his friends had entered at New York.

Sharon had got the news about this competition from her cousin in the States and was very keen at joining it for her dance career.

"Hm. I think Sharon is right! We should enter this competition, after all it has a very high platform and dancers from all around the globe would be coming. And this way, we would also go to New York City and shop!" said Simmi clapping her hands in joy at the thought of shopping in New York.

"I know, and I have heard that Seventh Avenue has a large collection of the exclusive designer clothes' shop. I really can't miss that opportunity." Rinni replied with the double enthusiasm that Simmi had.

"Gosh, why can't these girls for once stop talking about shopping? I mean, they can connect anything with shopping. And you know, when they go for shopping, they won't buy the thing they want to, but they will something extremely different from what they wanted and will keep eating our head for the next week for the same. Neha does that with me every weekend." Vicky whispered to Nilesh, complaining about his fiancee.

"Tell me about it..." Rey said with a sigh, "..that's like an every day notion for me."

"Girls, can we stop talking about shopping and discuss about the formalities of the competition. We need to finalize a routine, we need to register ourselves, we need to pack, we need to buy tickets. We have so much in our kitty and you can't stop thinking about shopping? We have like only ten days left with us." Vishaka said, peeved at her girl friends.

"Thanks for that Vish. Not guys, let's get straight to the point. Sharon, you register our team, I'll manage the tickets, Kria, you set the routine and you guys start to pack. We should be done with these things by tomorrow afternoon, so that by the evening, we start our rehearsals. And you guys come in here only for the rest of the time." Rey declared.

All heads nodded in affirmative.

"Okay, before that, let's have some food. Am sure you all would be hungry. Head towards the table and I will lay it for you." Kria said, ending with a smile and she went inside the kitchen. Sharon tagged along to help her, while the others sat comfortably in the hall.

"So, how is it going with Rey? Are you guys happy in your live-in relationship?" Sharon asked Kria as they were cooking the food.

"Hm, you know this has an all together different feeling. It's almost like a fairy-tale. We both work the same, come back together, eat together and with this we are able to spend more and more time together. It's fun and a wonderful feeling of being together, always. Rey takes a lot of care of me. He fulfills all my wishes without even the need of me to ask for it. It's like, just perfect. The only difference is we aren't married, but it's even better than that. We stay together, and are also enjoy our courtship days. But I pray to God it always stays like this, forever." Kria ended with a sigh and a beautiful smile on her face.

Sharon looked at her and smiled, before she could say anything else, her phone rang. She took it of her pocket just to see it was Shivam, her boyfriend's call. As Kria peered in to see the caller ID, she had a teasing smile on her face. Sharon blushed and picked up the call going out of the kitchen.

Kria was busy stirring the pasta in the pan when two, warm, big hands encircled her waist. She did not even have to turn to see who it was, as the person rested his chin on her shoulder.

"It smells good." he said.

Kria looked at him side-wards with a playful smile on her lips, and he fought back an urge to kiss her breathlessly.

"Kria, stop doing that. It makes me want to kiss you and never leave you. Your doing nothing but seducing me with this smile of yours. And if I start doing something, don't blame me for it." he said, kissing her shoulder over her sleeveless dress.

Kria sighed in content and said "Well, when did I ask you to stop Rey?"

The mischief in her eyes didn't get unnoticed by Rey. He knew something was cooking inside her head, and she looked all the more seducing.

He left her and turned her the other way so that she was facing him and he rubbed her thumb on her lips. And the same time his other hand strode down from her shoulder blade to her hand, and clasped it, threading his fingers with hers.

Kria closed her eyes as the hand on her lips went down her waist and held her possessively, pulling her soft body to his hard one. She opened her eye one last time and closed it again, parting her lips in anticipation. Rey leaned in and before their lips could meet, a loud cough brought them out of their reverie.

Rey jerked themselves away from each other, and Kria turned back to the gas stove as Vicky strode in the kitchen, simpering at Rey, who was busy scratching his nape in embarrassment.

"I'll just go and bring the serving bowl." Kria said, and ran quickly out of the kitchen to avoid the embarrassing situation in front of Vicky.

As she stood at the threshold of the kitchen, she took few deep breaths, calming herself down before going to the hall

"What was that?" Vicky asked him teasingly.

"Shut Up dude.." Rey said, ".. If a word goes out from here, I am going to tell Neha what you were doing last weekend at the club during Boys' Night out."

Vicky flinched, "No, you are not. She's still upset I consumed alcohol, if you will tell her about this, she would kick me out. And in any case, I wasn't in my senses at that time. And, I didn't see anything, I don't know anything." he said, surrendering his hands up in the air.

Rey smirked, patted his back and headed out of the kitchen. He sighed in relief, now he was sure Vicky won't utter a word about the almost-kiss to anybody.

Just got saved.
