"Universe Ji !! Mai late hogayi! " and before he could recover and call her she ran into the washroom. He sighed.
Ab aur nahi!! aap na meri jaan ke dushman ho !!
He looked at her Universe Ji and spoke, and went back to get his sleep. He had been gaping at her from nearly 2-3 hours. He yawned and slept pouting cutely!! She came out as he drifted into deep sleep. She thought of waking him up but thought to do it a bit later. He is working so hard now a days. Continuous rehearsals is draining him out . She immediately got ready and walked to him. Its 8 already. Breakfast time. So she bent down and called him slightly shaking him. He shrugged and slept still that sad pout on his face. She found him extremely cute. She stood up and fidgeted with her fingers. Taking deep breaths she slowly bent down and pecked his lips softly and left in a jiffy.
And the poor soul slept there deep in his sleep , rubbing his lips together once along with wetting them as he felt something on them.😆

They were having a breakfast shouting for swayam to join fast when swayam came buttoning his full sleeves.
"Bhabhi!! aap abhi tak aise hi ho??? " swayam narrowed his eyes.
" bas do min , tum breakfast karlo " kriya worked fast serving all. Rey frowned and gave a confused look.
"Bhabhi!! abhi jao !! "swayam said sternly. Kriya sighed and ran upstairs.
"arey kya hua?? " Rey asked taking a bite of his sandwich.
"kuch nahi! mai bhabhi ko date pe leke jaa raha hun " swayam said grabbing a sandwich , with a straight face , controlling his laugh.
Rey coughed hard soon after swayam spoke those words. Once he is normal he looked at swayam shocked and asked.
"kyun?? "Shocked
dammit maine khud apni wife ko date pe nahi leke gaya !!
"ye achi baat hai.. apni bestie ko lunch pe leke jaate aur mei leke jaun toh kyun? " swayam mocked.
Rey was about to answer when he heard a hyper
"I am ready!! " Kriya came down running adjusting her hair. She looked cute in that plain grey saree.
Swayam grabbed another sandwich for her and before Rey could understand the situation they are out.
Rey looked at his parents pouting sadly and shocked. All they did was giggle and leave the table. Rey pouted more and looked at the door . He thought of spending this sunday with her. But no she had other plans. He made a angry pout and left to their room.
*********
"Bhabhi!! "swayam , poor baby whined.
"bas do min aur swayam " she said never looking back. Swayam was helpless. from last 3 hours they were roaming from mall to the other and she took nothing.
" Bhabhi please!! mai thak gaya hun!! aaplog thakte nahi ho?? " he walked back of her as she walked one place to other.
"nahi !! kyun ki hum dil laga ke choose karte hai, tum log interest nahi lete ho " she said searching for the perfect dress.
" isme kya interest lena hai?? "he made a face.
" bola na.. " she looked at him once and moved front.
" Perfect " she stopped at a shirt. She took it and looked at swayam.
"khatam . ab chalte hai. Khush?? " she beamed.
"ufff... bohut!! " he grinned back.
****
He frowned and looked at her. But still she is silent. She is never one to sit all silent. Especially when she is with him. He frowned. She was sitting silent looking out as the cool wind hit her face. They had a delicious lunch and now on way to their next destination. He was about to break the silence when she started humming lost in her thoughts.
"haaye mera dil .. chura ke le gaya , churane wala... mera kaatil. " she sang all lost and paused. Swayam smiled and looked at her for a second before turning front.
" haaye mera dil.." he paused and saw her come out of her trance. She realized and blushed .
" chura ke legayi " swayam looked at her and winked.
" churane wali... meri kaatil " he pointed at her and acted as she killed him . Kriya laughed hard.
"kitna pyaara hai ye pyaar , pyaara pyaara " she continued looking out and blushing.
"hua hai pehli, hota hai ek baar, fir na hoga !! ye dobara "swayam completed her line and both laughed hard looking at each other .
" kaash meri jagah bhai hote.. aur bhi sahi hota "kriya laughed hard for this.
"waise , dil , churana and all.. chakkar kya hai?? "swayam teased looking ahead.
"kya chakkar ?? kuch bhi toh nahi " she blushed looking away.
" ahan?? maanliya maine "he chuckled. She sighed. She was caught long back.
" tumhe pata hai toh fir kyun pooch rahe ho? " she admitted indirectly.
"arey mai aapki mooh se sunna chahta hun " he grinned at her.
"theek hai!! yahi sunna chahte hona .. toh haa .. mai Rey se pyaar karti hun " she said her cheeks totally turning to red.
"wohooo !! bhai bhi karte hai?? " he asked excited and she nodded a shy yes.
"matlab !! CONFESS KARLIYA?? "he shouted all shocked.
" nahi!! confess nahi kiya!! I know .. ek hafta bhi theek se khatam nahi hua aur mai bol rahi hun ki mai unse pyaar karti hun, par " she was cut
"woah!! pull the breaks hard !! Pyaar hone keliye mahine thodi lagti hai.. wo toh ek pal mei hojata hai.. its nothing weird about it. Infact you are late in that sense. "he chuckled.
" waise batayiye.. bhai ne kaise propose kiya?? " he teased and she made a annoyed face.
"maine kab kaha unhone confess kiya?? unhe toh abhi tak nahi pata ki wo mujhse pyaar karte hai !! " she made a face.
"kya?? par bhabhi aapne abhi toh kaha"
" mai jaanti hun wo karte hai!! par unhe lagta hai ye husband aur wife mei commom feeling hai.. ab mai unhe kaise samjhaun yahi pyaar hota hai "she pouted.Swayam laughed hard.
"bhai bhi na!! par isme itna kya problem?? aap jaake boldo. wo realize karlenge " he smiled.
" KYA?? mai .. unhe confess karun?? nahi baba.. mujhe dar lagta hai !! " she said quickly.
"dar kyun?? " swayam giggled.
"arey!! unke saamne aate hi nervous hojati hun aur ye bolun?? nahi nahi " she said thinking about it and got hyper even thinking about it.
"aap ladkiya itna nervous kyun hojate ho?? "
"tum nahi samjhoge " she said sighing.
" kyun?? " he frowned.
"kyun ki tum ek ladke ho ladki nahi " she said .
" toh kya hua?? " he made a face.
" ye baat sirf ek ladki samajh sakti hai !! " she said with a irritated look.
" toh ab mujhe ye samjhne keliye ladki banna padega?? " he laughed. But stopped on seeing her "not funny "look.
"okay!! toh kya karoge aap? "
"wait !! aur kya karun? " she pouted sadly and looked out.
"Hey!! Kriya!! chill.. bhai jaldi hi realize karenge!! " he placed a hand on her shoulder. She smiled.
"tum mujhe Kriya hi bulaya karo!! acha lagta hai !! "she smiled.
"nahi nahi!! mujhe toh meri bestie se jyaada meri bhabhi pasand hai! mai toh bhabhi hi bulaunga " She laughed at his cuteness.
"acha dewar ji !! ab jaldi chale?? ghar mei aapke bhai jalke raakh hochuke honge!! kaam khatam kare jaldi? " she asked and both laughed hard thinking about Rey.
******
He peeped from the paper once again and pouted. Its 8 already in the night and still they are not back. He stood up and walked to grab some water when he saw her entering yawning and stretching. For sure she is tired. And back of her came swayam giving a self massage to his neck and shoulders. For sure he had a long drive today. She smiled at Rey and ran up , to quickly change and freshen up.
" Tu theek hai?? " Rey asked seeing swayam. Swayam smiled. He knew till now rey cursed both, for leaving him alone. But Rey can never change.
" haa bhai theek hun!! bas jyaada drive kiya na aaj.. back pain hai thoda. " he smiled.
" toh mai kuch lagaun? "
"nahi nahi! hot shower lunga toh free hojaunga. " he said and Rey smiled.
"jaldi nahake aaja.. khana khalete hai " swayam nodded and left.
...
" aap? " she breathed hard with the sudden closeness. She just came out of the washroom and he blocked her pinning her to the wall.
" mujhe akele chod ke chaligayi? " he glared at her.
"wo "
"wo kya?? " he stepped closer increasing the heat around them. She gulped down slowly and breathed hard but words failed to come out of her throat.
" bolo " he whispered and without waiting for her response he dug his face in the crook of her neck caressing it with his nose and lips. All she could do was clutch his shirt and close her eyes tight as he drilled himself into her pecking her shoulder.
She tried to speak but he gave a deaf ear to her. She shivered at the intensity of his passion. Rey stopped for a minute to look at her and she immediately ran out of his grip . She thought, not atleast today. She has so much work to do and in no way she should loose her senses. Everything is planned and anything gone wrong she will die of embarrassment . Rey got annoyed with this act of her. Here he missed her the whole day and she is not even ready to spend some quality time with him. He was quite annoyed with her this act.
Agar tumhe mere saath time nahi spend karna toh mai kyun paagalon ki tarah tumhare peeche ghumun?
He just walked down irritated. The whole dinner he didn't speak or look at her. She felt bad but what can she do? Isn't everything planned. She sighed. She have to face it.
" aur kuch chahiye aapko?? " she asked hoping he would look at her.
"nahi!!! " he said bluntly not looking at her and dashed to their room.He waited for her. He is expecting her to come and apologize , but there is no sign of her's . He walked out and peeped down and saw her working , and she is so busy working in that damn kitchen forgetting totally about him. He got more annoyed. He simply walked to the bed and slept. Let her come. He won't even glance at her. And soon waiting for her his heavy eye lids closed and he drifted to sleep.
It was 11:45 when she finished her work . She beamed at Priya who patted her hair. Swayam and she hi-5 ed and she ran excitedly to her room. As she opened and searched for him she saw him asleep already. She felt bad, but cheered up herself . She quickly washed her hands and face and stood beside the bed rubbing her hands nervous a bit. She looked at the clock. It is 11:55 and she took a deep breathe and before she could move she heard his mobile ringing. She frowned and grabbed his mobile. Her blood boiled and she gritted her teeth soon after seeing the name flashing on it. She walked into the balcony and lifted the call .
"Happy birthday Rey!! " she chirped excitedly.
" Reyaansh!! " Kriya said sternly.
"tum?? tumne kyun uthaya?? " shilpa flared up.
" FYI !! Rey mere husband hai.. and ye question mujhe poochna chahiye.. tumne call kyun kiya? " she said with attitude.
" tum phone Rey ko do.. mujhe usse wish karna hai " she said boiling Kriya's blood.
"Pehli baat , mai tumhe dus baar nahi bolungi , its Reyaansh for you and tum abhi Rey se baat nahi sakti ho .. "
"what?? par mujhe usse wish karna hai "
"kal subah 8 baje ko wo breakfast karenge .. free honge .. tab call karna "
she was about to end when she heard shilpa yelling
"what the hell.. " kriya interupted..
" don't you dare raise your voice at me!! "
" kya karogi?? "
" dekho , ache se samjharahi hun iska matlab ye nahi ki I will take every crap yours. Ek baat yaad rakhna.. mujhse panga lene ki koshish bhi mat karna... mujhe theek se jaanti nahi ho " Kriya warned her and ended the call. She took a deep breathe and thought she shouldn't spoil her mood now. So she quickly went to him and sat on the bed.
"Rey " she shook him slightly . He opened his eyes and looked at her, and turned to the other side and slept . Suddenly he felt her palm cup his cheek and she turned his face towards her. He frowned and looked away but was astonished when she gave him a long kiss on his cheeks pressing her lips totally on his cheek.
"Happy birthday Rey!! " she whispered and he immediately looked at her. She looked at him and smiled. His hand involuntarily caught hers resting on his cheek and he kissed her palm as she blushed looking down.
He felt so special hearing wishes from her. He felt a totally new feeling . it felt so good. But then he got the fragrance and frowned at her.
"tum kuch banarahi thi?? " he asked surprised.
She nooded cutely and said "aapko fruit cake pasand haina .. isiliye, wo bana rahi thi " .
" itni der wahi kar rahi ho?? " he asked getting why is so busy.
Shit !! She was doing this for me !!
She nodded her head sadly !! His heart suddenly felt guilty for misunderstanding her. He pulled her onto him in a swift motion and her face banged into his chest. She was about to get up when he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her up closer to him.
"Rey wo " she was about to say something when his lips touched her forehead. She rested her hands on his chest and closed her eyes. He rubbed his cheek with hers and planted a sweet kiss over there making her blush more.
"Time up bhabhi!!! hum aarahe hai !! " they heard swayam shout and she jumped out of the bed adjusting herself. Rey was left baffled. Its like she wanted to wish him first and they had given a whole of 15 mins for her to wish , but she wasted half of it in scolding shilpa.
"Happy birthday bhai!! " swayam entered and back of him all his family members even sharon came.
Rey was confused. He didn't understand what is going on !! First he was angry on her and was sleeping , she suddenly woke him up and when he is still so much into sleep she wished him making him feel special and he drowned in her, and suddenly she jumped back and he is all alone, which for a second don't know why pricked him and now he see his family around him smiling , his head is too heavy to realize the quick happenings around him. He once again looked around to see what is actually happening. And saw swayam grinning and wishing him !! Ahhh wishing him!! He was supposed to thank. He shook his head once and spoke,
" thanks chote!! " He said finally understanding the situation. His parents wished him and left . Swayam was about to hug him when sharon popped up in between and sat in his lap. Kriya's mouth went wide immediately.
" arey.. mujhe bhai ko hug karna hai " swayam pouted. From the time sharon entered their life and became Rey's bestie, she came in between everything to grab that special first position he had.
"nahi!! last year tune first hug ki.. aur yaad hai tune kya bola?? try hard next time !! Lo karli maine " she laughed .
" Happy birthday bestie "she hugged him . Kriya smiled but still, just now she shouted on shilpa, so she felt a bit bad. To see sharon that close to rey.
" sharon kuch jal raha hai.. uth jao " swayam teased and kriya looked away embarrassed of getting caught.
"ooohhh!! jealousy!! " sharon teased and wantedly hugged rey tight making him laugh hard and Kriya pout.
"ab tum hatogi please?? " Swayam made a face.
"alley baby ko bura laga?? " Sharon totally lost in his cute face pulled his cheeks and kissed on his cheek. The trio are left shocked when sharon froze.
Ohhh !! DAMN!! maine ye kya kar diya!!
*ahem * ahem* kriya coughed hard. Sharon turned all red and Rey raised his eyebrows at swayam. He inturn nodded a "I don't know please don't tease me " look.
" Rey!! mujhe lagta hai , ab hume , humari hi room chodke jaana padega, kisiko privacy jo dena hai " Kriya said teasing when Sharon turned away blushing hard.
Swayam closed his eyes and covered his face with hands listening to it. They are not gonna let them live happily. Swaron are too much into themselves and embarrassed to even look at them. Rey took this as chance and walked to her back and wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her into him . She tried her best to control the moan escaping . He snuggled more into her and kissed her in the crook of her neck making her shudder.
"Thanks " he whispered in his husky voice sending shivers down her spine. She looked at him confused.
"Sabse pehle wish karne keliye aur mujhe special feel karwane keliye " he spoke in her ear making her hold her breathe for a second.
" tum donon aise hi sharmate rahoge?? " He suddenly spoke hugging her tight and his chin placed on her shoulder. She got tensed and looked at him. Tried to come out of his grip but failed. Swaron looked at them still feeling embarrassed. And seeing kriyaansh Sharon spoke .
" mujhe tease kar rahe the.. ye kya public mei romance kar rahe ho? " she just don't want to become the victim here.
" ye toh meri wife hai!! mai ise kahi pe bhi hug kar sakta hun " rey smirked and sharon pouted.
" arey chill baba!! chalo aur tease nahi karunga " Rey walked towards her. He was about to hug her and Sharon went on her toes to hug him happily when swayam came in between and hugged him.
"Tit for tat " he stuck his tongue out irritating her. Rey couldn't help but laugh at these two who behave like kids at times.
_______________________________________________________________
He opened the door and froze. He was asked to wait outside till she gets ready. And he decided , in the meanwhile he would complete his work due for that day. As he entered he was shocked at the sight in front of him. There she stood in a black tassel off shoulder one piece . He was used to her sarees, salwar's and even pyjamas and shorts. But she never looked this hot and sexy like now. He was surprised, how can one girl fit into so many styles?? He couldn't stop but walk towards her. He frowned as he walked to her. Her hair was tied into a loose side pony tail . But he found something weird. As he walked closer he saw her reflection in the mirror. Seeing him she blushed and also grinned looking down a bit and still searching for the ear-rings she is gonna wear.
" Kriya!! you can remove these " he said looking at her reflection. She frowned and looked at him confused. What is he talking about?? She realized when he pointed out.
" Par mai nahi chahti hun "she gave a small smile and again started searching.
"par!! I mean iss dress pe mangalsutr aur bangles?? odd nahi hai?? I mean koi baat nahi , mom kuch nahi bolegi" He frowned as he heard her chuckle.
" Rey wo toh mujhe bhi pata hai!! Infact mom ne hi mujhe ye dress gift kiya aaj ki party keliye, but mera mann nahi hai nikalne ka.!! I prefer being myself. Agar kisiko odd lagega toh wo mujhe dekhna band kardenge " she stuck her tongue out and picked up silver long ear -rings to give the final touch. Her small things pleased him to no extent and made him feel so special. He hugged her and kissed her cheek when she clutched his hands on her waist.
" I feel so special when you are around. "he felt the need to say his feelings.
She turned towards him grinning. Wrapping her hands around his neck she spoke " wo iss liye kyun ki aap special ho " she smiled and kissed his cheek.
"Happy birthday once again rey!! " she hugged him resting her face near his heart. He wrapped his arms around her with all love and held her close looking with a wide grin at the reflection they made.
"PERFECT!! " he mouthed and hugged her tight.
" haa ... tab se bula rahi hun but dekho teri atma kabhi yaha kabhi waha bhatakti hai "she pointed at the sides he was staring into . He looked at her as if she has gone retarded.
Kya mai aaj ise confess karunga??
he thought and chuckled at his own thoughts.
"Swayam tum paagal hogaye ho!! Tab se dekh rahi hun coffee pe coffee peete jaa rahe ho, kabhi haste ho akele mei toh kabhi apni nails khate ho!! tumhe ho kya gaya hai? " she asked irritated.
"tumhe yaad bhi hai aaj hume gaana launch karna hai aur humne dhang se practise bhi nahi ki?? mai already itni tensed hun aur tum ho ke apne khayalon mei khoye hue ho. " she said nervous.
" Sharon why are you tensed?? "he held her by shoulders and made her look into his eyes. He can say she is hell nervous.
" aur nahi toh kya?? tum bohut baar gaa chuke ho swayam. I am tensed, ye mera debut hai singing mei!! And wo bhi recorded nahi live release kar rahe hai pehle. I am so tensed swayam. What if I spoil everything?? Tum bohut acha gaate ho swayam, I don't wanna spoil your image. Mujhe bohut darr lag raha hai, agar meri aawaz acha nahi laga toh?? " she looked away tensed/
"sharon!! meri taraf dekho " he said and cupped her face as she looked at him. He slowly bent forward and pressed his lips over hers. She closed her eyes taking in the moment. He didn't kiss her, neither she did. After few minutes he parted and looked at her who is in turn looking at him totally blank.
" I am there with you always sharon!! Tumhe itna tensed hone ki zaroorat nahi hai. Pehli baat.. you are amazing sharon. Secondly, jab hum saath hote hai toh kuch galat nahi ho sakta!! Trust me Sharon!! Nothing goes wrong when we are together, ...for each other." He said looking deep into her eyes. His words soothed her, gave strength to her heart. And a blush crept on her cheeks. He leaned in and kissed her forehead.
" Sharon just think that tum ye sirf bhai keliye kar rahi ho. We planned this as his birthday gift aur hum wo de rahe hai, and you know right?? bhai ko tumhara besura aawaz bhi bohut acha lagta hai ?? " he grinned a naughty grin. Sharon is till now blushing and smiling narrowed her eyes and looked at him.
"mera aawaz besura hai?? " she asked glaring at him.
" wo.. umm.. haa " he tactfully walked back and laughed at her.
"how dare you swayam!! " she took the file and threw at him. It fell directly on his face making him stop his laugh immediately!
" Sharon!! " he groaned.
"Swayam !! " she whined dramatically and ran out showing him a thumbs down!!
"Chodunga nahi tumhe aaj " he ran behind her. The whole office looked at them amused. Swayam grabbed her by waist from back and walked to his cabin as she struggled to get out beating his hands on her waist and moving her legs but laughing hard.
She fell silent as soon as he closed the door and pinned her to the wall beside crushing her back into his front.
"ab bolo!! " he teased her.
"swa.. swayam!! let me go " she controlled her emoticons and asked him.
"arey nahi nahi.. has rahi thi na haso tho!! " he said with a smirk. But it vanished when she pushed him a bit and in a swift moment she pinned his back to the wall and she was in front of him face to face. He was too shocked to react. She smirked this time and went on her toes giving a peck on his lips.
" don't you dare order me today!! Aaj tum wahi karoge jo mai bolungi !! " she said with attitude and he like a puppy nodded his head. She winked and left messing up his hair. He saw her retreating figure and once she left he spoke to himself.
"kya mai confess kar paunga?? Swayam aur koi nahi mili tujhe?? kahi ye sabke saamne meri haddi na thod de. You know how she is swayam, ache ache darte hai isse aur tu usse pyaar kar raha hai? beta teri shamat aagayi ! " he said pulling out the chain he had bought for her from his pocket.
Once she was in her cabin she took a file and covered her face. What was she doing?? She kissed him???
No no , it was just a peck.
She said to herself .
But you pecked him!! :O
Her heart again shouted and she couldn't help but blush hard.
