hello dear..where r u??plzzz come back n update for ur readers!!!plzz!!!

chapter - 6

The next day went same for other persons at gautam buddha mahavidyaloya. Except that geet couldn't make herself concentrate in a single thing .

At lunch there was a meeting held in union room . But she couldn't make herself go there and be surrounded by the other students. She just wanted to be alone . sometime alone to sort her running a muck emotions before she faced arjun in the next class..

How will it be.? Would he look differently at her ? it would not be same in front of dia. He would ignore her completely and geet would be there beside him too show dia her place. She couldn't help but grin triumphantly at the stupidest thought she ever had.she knew it was utterly stupid but indulged herself in the newfound possessiveness towards a certain Arjun mishra.

Penny for your thought !

Her imaginations of the possible scenarios in class broke as a voice interrupted her from behind.

Hey'! She answered bringing back the usual cheerfulness in her voice.

So how have you been 'vikas asked her carefully .

For a moment geet thought that was odd for him to be this formal but she shook off the feelings.

So whats up ? meeting went well..?

You didn't come . so I came here instead .had a feeling would find you here. But then again you seem to live in a different world now .

Geet thought she heard a different tinge in his usual fooling around behavior.

You didn't tell me why are you here..?

Oh now do I have to have a reason to come to my girl friend ..!

Her brows knotted at the words he chose.

Listen vikas'about that..

Oh no'. he waved his hand stopping her immediately . I don't mind..there are always other parties..after all you had given me such a birthday present , he winked at her

She shuffled uneasily knowing he meant that stupid attempt of hers to mock him on that fateful day . in between all of this it slipped her mind to explain it to him.she wondered why sunanda and zaria didn't mention anything to him.

Of course they did. It had infuriated vikas very much. He was not that desperate for her love but he wanted to date her although . what enraged him anymore that geet had made him a joke in front of the girls who tend to cling to him all day.even zaria indicated that he should not waste any time after her anymore when a beautiful girl like zaria was there to be his REAL friend.

He hadn't expressed a word about his anger in front of them , but he showed that he had joked about it too. But he was bit unclear if they had bought it.

But vikas that day '

Yes honey ..!he looked at her keenly while fishing out a velvet box from his pocket ..i come bearing gifts.

Geet could almost bite her tongue.

This is going all wrong..!

What happened sweetheart don't you like it ..

in answer geet just forced a tight smile .

You are a good friend vikas . I definitely like you.we have been in so much together. you have really sweet ..but that's it ..I dont consider you any more than a friend vikas.. that day'we were ..ah..um..how should I say just ..i lied vikas. Geet didn't have the heart to say the person holding a gift box which must be a jewelry that she made fun of him in front of the whole class.

what ..?

for a few moments vikas gaped at her strangely ..geet had no answer to that she sat awkwardly hanging her head down.

oh she felt mortified..

geet I don't understand..!! the growl made geet curse herself. She had crossed the line .

on the other hand vikas processed everything pretty quick after all he was in politics for generations .he knew strategies ..he knew when to react and how to .

vikas tried to keep the irritation out of his voice when he continued ..you are giving me mixed signal..one second you say you like me the other some nonsense crap.

Geet tried to speak again but vikas cut her off stepping towards her.

That's okay geet ..i can do with "like"..just hang in there until you say those words..he grinned wiping swiftly the last trace of irritation from his face.

We would just hang together like before.go to parties work at union room'and be bestest friends .i could do with that because you know why I love you very much .and you would be mine pretty soon . he winked at her saying that .

Geet didn't smile back .in stead she said ..i would not hope for that vikas..

For one fraction of second vikas lost the plastered calm from his face and the cruelty sparked.but it was momentary . he recovered immediately and said . I would geet ..viikas gets what he wants 'you would want me too..dont worry friend , whatever happens I would be there as your friend.

He touched her shoulder reassuringly at the place that had burnt last night.she winced instantly ..

But vikas didn't respond for a moment .then slowly asked ..what happened geet?

Nothing ..just got hurt ..

Vikas didn't prodded anymore.

He turned to go and suddenly stopped like he remembered something

By the way geet , its not safe to roam around at night in the campus ..anything might happen to a young girl you know ..creeps like yadubans are always there. They are treacherous sick bas***ds ..all oof them.they would sit on a flower will drank the nectar and smother a beautiful flower like you.you should be aware of what you are getting yourself into ..he gestured suggestively.

Geet felt her heart thump at his comment ..

What do you mean ..? she felt her voice shaking ..

Just saying .you tend to roam around a lot lately ..be safe

Saying vikas didn't wait for a response. He wanted geet to take him seriously not discard him like a fly the way she did back in class.

He was not a joke and he would prove that. He walked through the campus losing the pretense of kindness .if geet tried her little prank like that anymore he would teach her a lesion of lifetime.

He in fact had known what she was upto these days .he had been there following her for last three days. He had seen enough to suspect a thing between the new teacher and geet. She must understand what is good for her and vikas will show her that.

-___________________________________________________________________________________

The pegions were wandering carefree at roof 'as anant raichanda seeped his tea sitting on the big wooden recliner lesiurely watching them.it was a early summer afternoon. His daughter in law janki , geet's aunt was massaging his feet when she spoke softly .

Bauji ..what did you think about geet's marriage ..she will be turning twenty this monsoon.

Bauji didn't response when she continued.

I know after what happened with her you would want to get her married in a big family.after all she is the only daughter 'lauti poti of the house.we should find a suitable groom for her.

A boy belongs from a status similar to ours . .khandani biradari ka ladka .who would match her in all aspects.

Why all of a sudden you are being so thoughtful about her.is it your brother's son who has been staying at our house for last two month's you aree refering at by Suitable groom.?

Janki's voice faltered a little but she spoke anyway'no bauji ..its not that. Geet has grown up..what she does there at hostel we don't get any news of her.it worries me when I listen that she has been too involved in politics and all the other manly stuffs..i know she has your permission but bauji she iis not a boy..she conitued after pause to notice changes in his face...geet has reduced calling home these days.the last time she called she said something about not coming home on the vacation . I wonder what she would do there all alone in a such long vacation.

I m worried bauji . you know how hung up she was about that lowly boy maan..! she is like her father. Carefree ..soft hearted.if someone wooes her taking her naivety as advantage it would be a big problem for our family pride .

There are so many suitable candidates around us ..if you give permission then I would'..

She hadnt finished yet when a bark made her gulp the words back

Enough..! you don't have to worry about her as long I m alive..go mind your business ..

she withdrew her hands from his feet and cursing the arrogant old jaminder under breath for the umpteenth number of time she retreated from her attempt .

But anant wasn't elusive to the point she was trying to make. Geet had his father's blood. Day after day she was getting distant from the family .when she was here she never connected with anyone.more she grew more her attachment loosened with the family.

That hadnt escaped his attention. But losing her father was not as a relief he had showed to the world outside.it had crumbled him.his youngest son had been crumpled mercilessly in claws of cancer. He wanted the girl to stay a bit more there reminding him of her father..he did want to give her little more time before marrying her off .

But when you have a young girl in your house you should be able to recognize the sign .that she is getiing her wings .he needed to clipp them before she flies away tearing the thin net of reputation and pride he had webbed around his family.

Not coming home for so long while staying at boarding college is definitely one sign..!

He straightened up gathering the silver butted cane beside him.

Gautam buddha mahavidyalaya was defiinitely in a need of his visit.

___________________________________________________________________________________

Sleep had eluded from geet's eyes'she would lie there and relieve the moment thousand times.still not getting hold of it. sometimes she felt it it didn't happen ..sometimes she thought it was a magic that she had lived. because nothing could feel so ethereal.

Arjun mishra who was an epitome of discipline , heart throb of every single girl of this college, who had never been seen with any woman or had no rumor had been so close to her ..almost kissed her..2^nd time on a row.if the first time wasn't the sure sign, then the last time definitely told her how attracted he was to her.

But she didn't know if this was only physical. She dared not to get her hopes up ..the hopes she thought she didn't have in her. The emotions he had sprang in her she was always unknown to.

She wanted to talk to him ..wanted to know badly what did he want..but she couldn't . her feminine shyness stopped her bold tongue.

Love makes such impossible to happen'

Did I say love'?

The heart pounded hard against the ribs, painfully , making her whole body taut in anticipation.

She had gone to college..she had attended every classes..and he had been there .she had felt his eyes on her. When she would look up he would shift his gaze feigning ignorance only to be caught in her eyes a few times. He would fumble for words , for a fraction of a second and then quickly recover and resume the lecture in his usual deep baritone like nothing happened . geet sighed at the thought that he would not be aware of the thousand butterflies fluttering in her stomach . he wouldn't be aware of the crimson hue graced her cheeks.

That was the problem. He was normal with her. So calm that she wanted the storm behind that tranquillity. She had liked him angry passionate more than this unfathomable mask he wore in front of everyone. she had hoped things would straighten between them. The way it always happens in movie.no she definitely didn't want him to a song around a tree ..but she wanted something , some indication that all she was going through was same for his too. She wanted a response so badly she often contemplated the idea of confronting him directly . but she couldn't anyway . and there he was cool as a cucumber . .she couldnt understand him at all.he was way too unpredicatble for her.

But that was may be they hadnt shared a personal moment to see him lowering his guards.

Yes. They had not been alone since then. Always in the middle of the class or tutorial or in the lobby ..He would not slow down'nod slightly at her when she would cross him trying utmost to control the rushing of blood to her cheeks. He would be formal..gentlemanly like a teacher does.

She would turn the corner and look back while he would be busy with someone else and definitely ..most definitely he would turn his face to discover her startled eyes from the corner ..then a smirk..a ghost of it would hover on his face .or may be that was just her imagination .

She would rather imagine that to be true.

But a nagging fear in back of her head would disturb her. Vikas had been very forthcoming recently. like yesterday , he appeared just out of nowhere and asked her to accompany him to the town.

It wouldn't be the first time she would ride on a bike with vikas but it wouldn't be anytime after she has heard what vikas wanted from her. He had been very serious to put it.and moreover she didn't like it anymore. She didn't like the idea to be near any man . arjun 's thoughts had kept her consumed.

The things vikas had said that day got her thinking.

Why was he fixated on the teachers. Did he saw her at arjun sir's place? The idea numbed her. If this goes to the principle strict action would be taken against her, not to mention arjun wouldn't be spared too .

And thinking about what he had meant about the cunning basterds like yadubans her heart twinged .

Arjun wasn't like that'.he wasnot .

But was he ..? does he..? does he feel about her the way she does?.

__________________________________________________________________________________

His breath stiffled her open hairs as her hand snaked against his neck..his lips brushed her cheek 'hand making its way under her kamij . stroking sensuality in her silken skin

Breath hitched in her throat . she tilted her head back .the grazing of his slender fingers on her bare waist making her numb, spreading an sweet ache in her body ..

He stooped to kiss the hollow of her neck 'his palm clasped her back to pull her tighter against him..her soft mounds pressed against his taut chest .. hardened peaks begging for touch .

Kiun geet '! Mere bina reh nahi sakti '?

She fluttered open her eyes to find his lips crashing on hers .

Thud thud thud''.

The beating of a frenzy heart filled the room.

Geet woke up dreanched in sweat..she could still feel the tingling kiss slow burn in her neck risen from his touch .the way he had kissed her..she touched her lips quavering in ..she felt every single fibre of her body anticipating the kiss..

The kiss that had not come.

The warmth of his arms were not there..

She pulled her knees together to hide her face.this side of human body was unknown to her until now . until arjun mishra came into her life and turned her world upside down.

She had no idea how bad she wanted him to kiss her.

She trembled as the strong feelings floodded her.

This teacher of hers has made an place in her life that she cant resist.he would invade her every thoughts even dreams.

The frantic heartbeats was in no mood to listen to her.they wanted him.

A person who shouldn't be wanting her.

But every cell of her body .every blood corpusle of her existence wanted him to be hers, to become the one had never came in her life.

Arjun mishra had come in her life and spun her into a hurricane that had taken her far away from her little comfort zone.

The feelings were unsettling . she couldn't ease . she needed to know anything something that would convince her he wanted her too'just not only physically ..

__________________________________________________________________________________

Arjun walked in the lobby with long strides ..he was unaware of the eyes that was waiting for him at the end of it.

Sir'

He stilled at the voice . the memory of the owner would keep him awake the whole night . he would crush the pillow with his chest but the comfort would be missing.

He shut his eyes for a fraction of second to control the frenzied thoughts and turned to present the most sauve teacher of the earth.

Hello geet !

The calm tone was back repressing the surge of waves in his heart.

So how's your preparations going ! hope you don't plan to submit the blank paper again ?

You did prepare ..didnt you ?

Geet flinched .for a second she didn't know what was she here for . her eyes widened at the way he spoke without slightest recognition in his voice of what they shared.

he chuckled ! internal exams ..?starting from this Monday does that ring a bell?

Geet didn't know what she would say.

she realized she hadn't thought of any excuse to come to him.

So she repeated dumbly

internal exams from Monday!!

Yes ! all the best then .

arjun gave her a thin smile and nodding he turned to walk forward.

As geet saw him walk away 'she knew she had to stop him. break this wall and know what was in it.

Would not you help me preparing ..?

The determination in her question feared arjun.. it seemed like she was asking a different question , without having which's answer she wouldn't buzz.arjun feared he knew the question.

Geet was too straight forward for her own good..he knew that about her.

I believe you should study alone .that would be much productive .but one thing if you need any reference book name it I would bring it to you , um tomorrow at college..

Arjun replied implying avoidance in reply of the unasked question .

There was an awkward silence around them despite hundreds of students were around them .nothing reached them. absolutely nothing

Geet stared at him . he felt they are laughing at his guts.!

Why couldn't i just tell her..remind her the soiled past.

It was not only emotions that hindered it..anger that stopped him from coming out .but it was this fear in his subconscious ..fear of rejection all over again.

Hope you don't have to hide behind any excuse this time! Submitting blank paper again.

He spoke with a dry sarcasm ..though he didn't understand its whom he was mocking at ?geet or himself

I don't have to sir. ..thank you ..! she spoke as calmly he did.

Throwing the words geet walked away quickly keeping a slightly fazed arjun behind.

Arjun knew she was trouble. She would not let it go this easily .but however he hoped she wouldn't confront him again after he clearly avoided to meet her alone.

He absently walked to the next class.

The day after when he was giving a last minute discussion over a previously taken chapter that would come in the exam 4 days after , every students were jotting down whatever he said.

Every student but geet . she sat leaning back staring at him.

He felt her eyes on her..he continued lecture ,reprimanded himself for the thought of once just once look at her..but it was drawing his whole existence towards her.

Failed he looked up from the piece of paper he was lecturing from and faced her.

Time stopped at that moment.

It was in her eyes that kept him tied ..crippling down the walls that he had built for years ..his own heart betrayed him. She had made him suffer, She didn't remember the person she shouldn't forget she had cost him so much . every relationship he had. .yet there she was.doe eyes as innocent as ever .ebony curls caressing her cheek ..the purity that oozed her milky skin , the tug in her eyes for him'just for him.

He couldn't tear off..

The class started to mutter '.they were looking back and forth between the teacher and the student .

Some started clearing throats , some of them were enjoying the situation. Thankfully vikas was absent in the class.

But that wouldn't stoop the rumor .arjun knew he shouldn't ..but just couldn't ..

Sir''dia's voice forced him to tear the gaze and look at the class with an amused expression on them.

He forced a smile and resumed what he was saying . but the next part wasn't long enough .the bell rang soon . freeing them from the misery .

After the class arjun thought geet would stop and try to talk to him.but she did no such thing .in stead she picked up her bag and walked out .

chapter 7

Geet was mad..she tried not to get bothered..tried to forget the life altering almost kiss they shared.but his reluctance and clear avoidance was a huge blow to her ego.she was geet ..every slip of a boy sought excuses just to talk to her once..but there was that ..arjun singh khurana was no common male.he was the most enigmatic person she had ever met.

She wouldn't talk to him ever again ..no matter how it hurts. She would not ask him for any help. She had promised herself .

But that day when he looked up from the papers and looked at her ..her respiratory center definitely failed her.she couldn't breathe.no matter how unfazed she represented herself .but only she had known how she had trembled from within

.

That black suited arrogant monster had his way every time. She clenched her teeth so hard that her jaws hurt.

She was more mad at herself. Why does she have to think about him..expect something and in return feel so dejected .?that was so not her .

She was mortified with herself at the direct refusal .

She didn't need any explanation..what happened why happened she didn't need to know. .that was a fleeting moment of passion .it happens .and it has happened .and its over now .that's it .

With that she clenched her teeth and closed the book of arjun singh khurana in her life . it was just Prof khurana from now on .

She was determined to get sleep tonight .not to think or dream about anyone. .life was too practical to dream. Losing parents at young age she knew that in hard way .

the day passed lazily for both ..it was like time betraying them . both of them so determined to avoid each other that they technically dug themselves in their works. There was no class of arjun before the exam .so that was a direct relief .she was happy that she wouldn't be distracted and in this mean period she would recollect herself and nothing would matter anymore. At least so she told herself.

It was the Sunday afternoon ..she was studying in her dorm room or rather trying hard to concentrate as in breakfast somebody might have pulled her leg about the last day's supposed staring contest they shared in class.

Geet fought the urge to shout on the top of her lungs "shut up ! " to the giggling stupid girls who had no idea what she was going through . But in stead she just smeared butter on the toast with that plastered aloofness on her face...but if anyone had looked in her eyes they would have told a different story..

Sunanda entered the room excited .!

Hey geet ..wassap girl ..?offho '! You are still studying ! give it a rest will you '

Geet gave her a small smile and put down the pen from her hand'

If only sunanda knew it was the studies that could keep her distracted at that moment !

Whats cooking in your evil brain. why are not you studying ? she had asked in stead .

Aree ' last batch had organized a reunion party . she made herself cozy in her plush bed.

I know . but why are you excited.its only their batch is invited.

Of ho 'which world you live in .!she huffed.

This I guess'! Geet said amused by her sudden enthusiasm.

Listen they had a problem about the venue and union helped them with it .

I know .i did it .

Oh ..! then what you don't know that they invited us over .selective ..chal na ..lets go 'we would get a change from this!

Have you lost it ?tomorrow's exam .

Ofho yaar .you are such a bore. for just 1 hour .as far I know you have completed revision already . dia would be there too .dont you worry .!! she winked at her .and moreover what would you do by studying more..after you complete your studies your grand pa's gonna marry you off to some rayis jada khandani .where you wouldn't need to work moreover he would allow you to.have you forgotten what a drama happened when you asked to study at delhi .he didn't even let you go to Kanpur.

Shut up sunanda '. She barked tightening her grip around the pen .. though she knew every bit of which is true.

Don't let your anger get the best of you ..chill out geet ..and come with us.

The invitation is for your sake.if you wouldn't go we wouldn't be able to .it would be fun . I have never went to a reunion party .i heard they have most exquisite arrangements..please yaar chal na..whole night is there to study .

Sighing geet put down the pen for good. its okay she guessed.they would comeback within 9 and study the whole night .

Moreover she needed a break .she was doing all nighters for last 5 days .and the days went on same. She deserves a break .

The party was different . they had decorated eloquently by silver and white drapes. Lavender and lilies and light designed in a manner giving a beautiful ambiance. silver and shiny balloons curled up here and there.

Senior students scattered around everywhere discussing about future ,present and past . some looked contented , some dissatisfied at how their career rolled . some excited at the new ventures of their lives.. Waiters in white dresses wandering with large trays with soft and hard drinks on them. The party was themed on contemporary . the batch has invited a few teachers n few senior students they were close to at time of their college .

In a corner there was a bar .and in the opposite end there was a dance floor next to dj stand . everybody was either eating or talking holding a sleek glass between their fingers . twirling it .

Geet watched everything from a corner with lazy gaze wandering around .with her eyes finally stopping on a form facing back to her.

Oh . she had no problem recognizing the figure even if it wasn't facing her .

The last man she wanted to see this evening !

But what is he doing here ? he didn't even teach this batch .

Like I care '! She muttered under her breath . and picked a glass from a waiter.

At that moment the lights dimmed and music changed to a dancing one.

Hey wanna dance .vikas spread his hand out .

In another time geet would have politely refused . but not today . she glanced at arjun who was talking to a group of people oblivious to her presence.

Nodding she put her own on his. Vikas didn't notice her clenched teeth on which a smile was plastered .

As geet and vikas made their way to the dance floor 'arjun's body stiffened .

Boy was she wrong about him not noticing her ..?

Of course he had seen her 'he had seen well.and pretended not to.

He couldn't help but look at her ..dancing gleefully in the crowded floor . the way her pink and black calf length dress flared with each dance step . ..her long hair bellowed behind her .

Vikas had held her by waist and she was dancing fanatically .

His hands on her waist .

His hands on her body '.

He couldn't think coherently .

He felt like strangling vikas to death . He was touching her ?'

He chugged down the liquid of the glass he was holding

he was mad ..so mad that he felt like hauling her out of it .fury seeped through his vein .

how dare she ..!!

every fiber of his body tautened like about to pounce on vikas.

A hand on his shoulder felt the tightened muscles ..

Its just a dance ..!

Arjun didn't reply to the voice.

Arjun bhaiya 'relax' please ! The guy spoke again ..

so much more it takes to be affect me satya ..! arjun said in a dangerously low voice. Picking up another glass from the waiter.

Satya looked at geet and arjun again .he knew arjun was lying .not to him but to himself.

Excuse me 'arjun didn't wait to watch the full show ..

After a few minute geet's cheek's were hurt by that extra enthusiastic smile she wore.

She glanced at the corner where she had seen arjun standing .he wasn't there anymore.why put up the show then?

She excused herself walked to the bar and ordered a lime juice .drank it in one go and was headed back to search sunanda . she wanted to leave now .

She couldn't find her .sighing she walked to the exit. Sunanda knows her way back.and she was tired after putting up such show.

Suddenly a hand grabbed her and jerked her in sideways .

She yelped at the pain it caused .

But another hand clasped her mouth tight . she bit on the hand and violently wriggled to free herself when the shadow came forward and fixed her with his own body to the brick wall behind .

Her senses numbed when the musky woody smell from him silenced her .

You have sharp teeth miss geet !

Geet looked up to face the caramel eyes gauging her and she immediately froze.

She couldn't breath even though he had taken off his hand from her mouth . his hip bone pressed to her belly fixing her with the wall'

His body had en caged her shamelessly .

The heart betrayed and had the odd timing to pick up the racing . her throat went dry.

What are you doing here..?

Arjun growled in a low voice.

Geet didn't answer ..her throat was too dry to speak up .. she just stared at him numbed by the chocolate eyes.

What are you doing here..?dont you have to study.he hissed again , this time softer but still rough.

Geet didn't reply . his face was inches away from her . his eyes had the pool of an unknown expression that whirled her .drowning her in it.

It had jealousy .

It had authority .

It had possessiveness.

It had that strange emotion that was setting fire in her. Her cheeks flushed red.

cat got your tongue ?

he smirked noticing the effect he had on her. Her supple pink lips slightly parted .for heavens sake stop looking at me that way . his mind screamed fearing he would loose control and swoop down on her and would take those juicy lips in his mouth .

she swallowed to ease.

Wh...Whhat are YOU doing here ..? she asked back slowly regaining her control .

He almost smiled noticed how she let him hold her.not even trying to wriggle out ?

That's not the answer .

He lowered his face ..

His hot breath fanned on her .her skin burned .

You are drunk .!

Geet whispered shocked'but what she was more shocked that she was not repulsed. The odor of alcohol mingled with the musky intoxicating scent of his own .it was arousing her. His taut abs were pressed against her lower body .

But still in my senses are present .but you clearly lost them.

He didn't tell her that its she who drove him to the drink .

You should be studying at this hour not dancing !!

Why do you care ..?. she hissed .

Now you get to decided whether I should attend a party or not.? Why are YOU here. You don't even know the batch !

You didn't answer me'he slowly pulled away slightly from her.

Tomorrow's exam and I will give it .you don't have to bother.

Stay away from that boy . friendship with him would cost you !

You don't have to worry about that . geet said adamantly.

it was his change of behaviors that irked her. Switching from cold to this..what does he think of me..he owns me or what?

Let me go '.!! She hissed again .

While he just stared and spoke gruffly . I already did ..! he added after a painful pause.long time ago ..!

Geet looked at herself..

He had.

She didn't even notice him parting away from her.

She stared at him thinking what to make of this?

The ruffled hair falling on his forehead ..the black silk shirt was making him ravishingly handsome.

But his eyes.

Did they have pain ?

She couldn't guess.

A foot step approached them and stopped behind arjun .

Thank god they were decent .

Arjun bhaiya 'I was looking for you everywhere .

Geet shifted her eyes to the man . she knew him .he was the captain of the college cricket team .satya awasty .

Meet satya .my best friends brother. He invited me..hope that answers.

Arjun spoke not tearing away from her ..

Geet raichanda 2^nd year . English hons . he said not looking away from her knowing fully well satya knew her very well.

She tried to smile at him with a nod and said..excuse me I need to go .!

Satya nodded at her ..

Arjun stared at her retreating form when satya said.

I presume she doesn't recognize you .!

Yeah ..!! she has a funny memory ! arjun laughed fanatically. .

Satya didn't smile. He knew what hurt was hidden under that smile . satya was grand son of nayeb of jaminder anant raichand . he had been the one who helped arjun to keep tabs on geet ..he is the one informed arjun of this college .at that time arjun was in delhi . To be near geet, he had left the most prestigious offer to teach abroad .

Satya knew what arjun went through all these year.he knew what geet had cost him.

Satya didn't ask why didn't he tell her about maan ..? it was his matter to solve.

gotta go satya.

Geet was walking with eyes fixed up front when arjun grabbed her second time this evening and pulled aside .at that moment a car passed them with a very high speed.

Watch it !!

I can take care of myself ..! she groaned as she felt her how absently she was walking in the highway .this man drove her crazy .

are you stalking me?

He didn't respond to her question ..its late .i will walk you to the hostel.

i can take care of myself.

But seemed he couldn't hear her, just kept walking beside her.

Geet didn't speak knowing he wouldn't answer ?and what actual questions she had?

are you jealous that I danced with vikas ?god if she could ask him

No'.he was the drunk .not her. She was tired by all of it . more after not today of all days .she didn't need any answers today . she had exam tomorrow and she planned to study .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The last bell rang making harsh sound breaking arjun from his reverie ..he didn't know he was staring blank ahead..it was raining outside.rain always disturbed him.awakening emotions he wanted to avoid all his life..vulnerability.he hated it.

Sir'. here .. he looked at the voice to find dia holding the answer paper in her hand.

So how was it'?did your hard work paid off..?

Umm sir..i think yes'.dia grinned .

Okay party then '!!arjun spoke arranging the papers that students started submitting one by one.

No'first you check the paper..then we would party 'all together'dia pointed her finger at his direction.

Oh ofcourse you would deserve a party my dear .!

He forced a enthusiastic smile to her.

Another paper thurst on to the table catching their attention ..no word said ..and the student walked out of the class on her heels'

Arjun stared at her retreating form ..unable to gather what dia was saying .

He couldn't remember what exactly happened last night .but he could remember he dragged her to the alley

Did he kiss her'..?

oh god ..he was way out of hiis league .but if he had kissed her ..he regreted it ..not because he kissed her .because he couldn't remember it ..there's no way he could know .

Oh god'.!! Why cant I remember ..! he slammed the gigantic mehogony table in the teacher's room.

Arjun was counting and arranging the papers when a pair of porcelain hands thumped a hard-bind book on the table..

Your book..!

With that she bolted out from the door.

Wait.

Geet wait.

Arjun shouted from her back to which she paid no attention.

But a hand snaked her arm and pulled inside the sideby deserted room .

I thought I asked you to wait.. he groaned grabbing both her shoulders..

She jerked of his hands and hissed'I didn't hear ..actually I m deaf..!!

And stop grabbing me like that ..

He stepped back a little biting the cheek inside..oh god..! now she is going to throw one of her to the point arrows..

But she didn't she stood still facing opposite to him arms crossed under her bosom.

Arjun didn't know if he was disappointed that she didn't ask and he didnt get to get all awkawrd and answer..something was definitely wrong with him today .he wanted to touch the fire. he asked.

Like what geet . inching close to her..

his inner mind asked him to stop ..dont go there.you are not ready.she is not ready ..it screamed on top his lungs holding back his collar .but the imbecile heart shushed him ..

But she didn't respond'

If he could see her face he would have seen her eyes misting '

A girl could take this long.!

He noticed at the gap they had.she didn't move away from him ..not an inch.where as he did. He watched her fuming..

she looked more beautiful when she was angry..arjun singh khurana hated western cloths but the peach colored silk top she was wearing above the denims was complementing her sweet anger.

The perfect curves of her petite body almost shuddering in anger'

His heart constricted in his chest.

she was jealous'.wasnt she .

Arjun smiled and inched ahead closing the gap.

Arjun touched her arm'the silken skin of her porcelain arm was setting him on fire'the heaving of her body increased as he had touched her'

The shudder she was trying hard to hide.

Like what geet..?

The long slender neck'the tendrils falling on it..

His heart thudding '.the pheromones driving crazy..

Geet closed her eyes'no ..no '..i wouldn't feel a thing ..i wouldn't get myself confused by his superconfusing behavior.

Not again'not anymore'.tears stung in her eyes'

How dare he drive her crazy and not explain a word to her..

she wouldn't respond .she wouldn't turn .she promised herself vehemently as she felt the tug in her arm'.

The big warm coarse palm on her forearm melting her..she knew it would be a matter of time before she again bent on her knees and let him play her again.

Haan geet..?

His steamy breath was scorching skin of her nape ..

enough ..!!

She flung his arms and turned to face him with a jolt. he had his hands in the air ..almost trying to reach over..shocked to see her tear strained face'

This..like this'she pointed at his hands those were about to touch her ..

I m tired sir'..i m tired of your antiques ..i don't know what they mean .i dont know what do you want ., you did the same last night..i don't understand what does this mean'..she almost shouted ..when another drop of tear rolled down from her eye.

She was tired of his off and on tenderness.

Arjun had never seen her this vulnerable ,her cheeks flushed, stained by the dried tears..her eyes bloodshot and tired ,lips trembling her whole body trembling 'shoulders slumped by her side..she looked defeated. Her usual feisty cheery self was shadowed behind this insecurity . he knew he was hurting her..but didn't know it was affecting her this much.

The sudden need of protecting her was overpowering his rationality . He reached out for her and snaked her waist'pulling her to him.

She was melting his resolve..he knew it..and he let her.

oh god .. just today .for heaven's sake ..just for today let me hold her and cradle in my arm .his heart begged to his mind and closed the door on its face.

his mind knew endgame would be severe .but he ignored .the feel of her body in his arms was worth it.

She was too tired to protest ..too confused to feel the sudden difference of his touch .she was trying to control the erupting sobs when she found herself in his strong arms , snaked around her petite waist. Stopping her body from the breakdown . she didn't fought back to free herself just put her hands on his broad chest to support herself'

The embrace was cozy, supporting and warm .

She couldn't think straight .it was good to have support ..protecting her from the fall.

I don't remember a thing about last night..he spoke hushed..almost acknowledging how sorry he was..

Was he sorry for grabbing her that way ? behaving like he owned her?

Was he?

Geet tried to read the caramel pool of unfathomable emotions but she couldn't decipher anything 'but his arms around her.. told another story altogether.

The arms was not ashamed to lock her up in them they were steady and bold'she was not pulled flush to his chest ..his arms just supported her..and yet kept her close .close enough for her to feel his masculine chest under her palms..

She didn't know if she regretted it.

Geet '.his gruff voice tentatively took her name..his eyes were on anything but her eyes.

Did'I..um . 'did ..oh did anything..

She was surprised at his faltering voice.

No'.u didn't ..

Surprised arjun looked up ..

You didn't kiss me..

Arjun singh khurana couldn't decide he would laugh or blush '

This was one hell of a girl .!

Ohh how she enjoyed the flushed neck of his'the mouth agape.

Was that a complain '?

It was her turn to flush all over..darkest shade of crimson graced her cheeks.

She wiggled hard to get out without responding to him ..

Let go of me'. She tried forcing anger on her voice concealing the shakiness it had.

But arjun made his grip stronger'pulling her flush to him ..

Let go'...her voice almost sounded like pleading .she knew she was in trouble'her heart beating so frantically she felt dizzy '

She repeated again '

Let go'

Arjun shook his head adamantly .the arrogant stupid smirk adoring his sexy lips'eyes quirking in mirth ..

His face dangerously close to her'.

But he seemed nonchalant of it..

You'you'.. she tried to hiss'but the anger was muffled by the desire he was infusing in her veins.

Geet struggled for word that seemingly disappeared from her head ..

Haan me..?

You'.! She wiggled her finger at him '

She was about to form successful words when he chuckled.

The sexy smirk quickening her breaths'sending shivers to her spine'like she was a bundle of fray nerves.

she abandoned the idea of replying ..instead just fought feebly to get out from the comfort emanating embrace.

Is that blush I can see..?

Geet raichanda can blush..! oh my .who would have thought ..?

That was the last straw '

Arjun'!! Let go..she pushed him on his chest .

She didn't seem to notice she just called him arjun ..which sent thousand volts of current through him'

He gazed at her ..his child woman. ..looked more pretty in her flushed embarrassed condition ..feisty little thing..claimed him as her's ..

He had never felt his own name so good..so sweet to his ears.

Suddenly a screeching sound outside not very far from there caught their attention ..

She stilled in his arms.. swiftly he pulled her in a darker corner.both had their eyes locked on the door. But there was not another sound.

Silence prevailed anticipating the next .

Cat '.

he whispered in her ear ..his unimaginatively soft lips(in comparison to his hard exterior ) rubbed in her ears'transfusing heat in her body

Huh'.!! Startled she turned her face to him'

As a result his lips burned its way to her cheek ..

She couldn't speak '..neither could he..

Grasping the tantalizing sweet burn at the contact .

Nice grip you got there..arjun whispered ..

Her confused eyes made him smirk ..

Without a word he indicated towards his collar . which she had grabbed in fear as the sound was heard outside.almost making him difficult to breath .

Embarrassed she released them immediately .

But his hand enclosed her little hand in him.. picking it up to his lips he touched the dainty long fingers planting a chaste kiss in them.

she shivered.and he loved the effect he had on her

Say it again.

W..wh ..what ' her voice shaking.his eyes hooded ,blue in desire.

My name'

She was reminded in a flash '

Sir'..she muttered under her breath almost correcting herself.

uhum.' he protested .

Say .. his voice mingled of pleading command.

She blushed harder bending her head away from his glance..but a finger on her chin stopped her from hiding away..tilting most enthralling face on earth to him.

a..ar'arju'

the parted juicy pink lips moaning his name was the last straw to his self control ..

before she could finish stammering his name..her lips were captured in a blistering kiss..

his mouth was like molten lava tinged with intoxicating wine and hers were bliss and honey ..

a gasp erupted from her throat that died on her lips as arjun deepened the kiss taking the chance of the gasp '

her arms snaked around his neck as her knee's gave away , but arjun pulled her closer resting her entire body on his stark masculine frame'his fingers weaving magic on her waist .

she pulled his closer as he touched the nooks of the darkest corners of her mouth ..sending her into a whirlpool of emotions..liquid heat spread through her veins humming his name..her long fingers clasped him with his hairs'.

he kissed her thirstily .feeling his woman for the first time .claiming her .naming her ,

he groaned and pushed her to the wall. His fervent lips crashing on her . she was driving him crazy ..her responsive kissing was snatching away the last shred of control he ever had'her soft mounds pressed on to his taut chest .her fingers entangled in his thick raven hair.

He pulled off slowly to see the look on her face..

She was a sight .

Eyes closed ..cheeks flushed red..lips swollen from his kiss..bosoms heaving against his chest matching the erratic beating of his heart ..

His throat went dry .. the sight of her was pure bliss..

God he loved her so much ..waited ..battled so much .here she was stirred by all emotions, aroused, awakened and her arms around his neck locked in iron clasp .

Why were her eyes closed..

He need to look in them..need to know..

Geet 'look at me'his thumb caressed the cheek bone..

Open your eyes geet 'he urged again impatient to read her.

Slowly she opened them to find to eager eyes boring in them ..eyes that had the strangest emotion that she dove in, releasing her 'letting her go.

A bit scared ..a bit content ..a bit unappeased..

Why are you so mad at me..? all the time..?haan geet ?

Before arjun could know he had asked.the vulnerability in his voice unease her to the core.all smirk gone.the molten caramel boring into her eyes for something more than just physical.

She didn't know what to say ..what would she say 'that you make me a bundle of nerves touching here n there..

In stead she looked him in the eye..and pulled him closer by his collar..this time unfazed ..and crashed her mouth on his.

Whatever ambiguity arjun had 'now gone. she was his 'only his'

He closed his eyes and kissed back the love of his life.
