Hi buddies! Hope you are well. Thanks for the likes and comments. Here is the 10th chapter. Read on and like and comment.
~Chapter 10 - Just Friends??~
I would like to dedicate this chapter to honey-sweety and -Barun, for their tremendous support and beautiful comments.. Thank you so much yaar..
P.S. I've read in almost each comment 'who's that girl.. Is Khushi jealous?'.. Come on guys! I'm not going to make Khushi fall for him so soon..
As they were busy with their silly talks, a girl walked to them and suddenly kissed Arnav on his cheek!...which left him as well as the other three SHOCKED.
"OH.MY.GOD"
Khushi screamed as soon as she saw the girl kissing Arnav's cheek.
"Hey!"
Arnav stood up and looked at the girl, a wide smile forming on his face.
"She is so CUTE"
Khushi again screamed.
"Bhaiya, Aap bhot hi HOT ho!" (Brother, you are very HOT)
The girl squealed excitedly and Arnav looked at her in awe.
"Bhaiya?"
Arnav asked innocently, picking her up in his arms.
"Haan"
The girl again kissed his cheek.
"You know him?"
Khushi asked the girl, pinching her cheeks.
"No I don't know him, but I was looking at him since ten minutes and I found him really really hot!"
"Aww.. You are also very hot"
Arnav said, letting out a chuckle.
"Haww Arnav!! You can't talk like that with such a little girl"
Khushi said, smiling brightly.
"Oh come on Khushi! She isn't very small.. Right Baby?"
Arnav asked the girl.
"Of'course I'm not small. I'm in 3rd standard"
Arnav along with Khushi and Payal and Aakash laughed out loud at her statement.
"You are really cute"
Khushi pulled her cheeks.
"Arnav bhaiya! Aap mujhe puppy nhi doge?"(Arnav brother! Will you not give me a kiss?)
The girl asked cutely.
Arnav could hear clearing of throats, but he muttered a "Sure" and placed a wet lingering kiss on her cheek.
Arnav made the girl stand on the chair and asked her name.
"Khushi"
The girl replied, smiling hard.
"Aww.. Mera bhi naam Khushi hai"(Aww.. My name is also Khushi)
Khushi said and came beside the chair.
"Par main aapse zyada acchi hoon"(But I'm more good than you are)
The little Khushi said, arrogantly.
"That's true Khushi"
Arnav said, looking at Khushi.
"Stop teasing Arnav! You go with her only. I'm going home!"
Khushi said, angrily, picking up her bag and turning towards the entrance to leave.
"Oho Khushi.. I was just joking yaar.. Come on..We'll have dinner together"
Arnav said, in a quite pleasing tone, circling one arm around her waist, pulling her towards the table to sit down.
"Khushi" came a voice of an elderly lady, as if calling for the little girl.
"Nani maa!" the girl got down from the chair and ran towards the lady.
"Ira auntie?"
Both Arnav and Khushi questioned in confusion.
"Arey Arnav? Khushi?"
Ira too questioned them in confusion.
"That means she's your grand-daughter?"
Arnav stepped forward and asked Ira.
"Haan.. Par yeh yahan par tumhare saath kya kar rahi thi?"
(Yes.. But what was she doing here with you?)
"Auntie now we are friends! Right Khushi?"
Arnav asked, tapping little Khushi's nose playfully.
"Yes we are"
she replied chuckling.
"Khushi bohot zidd kar rahi thi isliye main isey yahan le ayi. Main washroom hi gayi thi, ki yeh tumhare paas aa gayi" (Khushi was being very stubborn, that's why I got her here. I had went to the washroom, when she came to you)
Ira said, shaking her head.
"Now we are going home. You all enjoy here. I'll come late in the morning, Arnav. Bye."
Ira informed him.
"No problem Auntie. Take care."
Arnav said.
"Bye Arnav bhaiya!"
"Bye Khushi!"
Arnav waved them goodbye and they four went back to decide what to order.
They had their dinner, while chatting and making fun of each other and after that went to Arnav and Khushi's home to have some fun.

"Lets play Truth and Dare"
Aakash suggested, when they sat comfortably in Khushi's room.
"That's a great idea!"
Khushi exclaimed in glee.
The game started, a bottle being made to rotate, deciding the future of the person at whom it points!
The bottle stopped and the first was Payal to decide 'truth' or 'dare'.
"I'll take truth"
"OK Khushi. Ask her"
Arnav told Khushi.
"OK.. Payal. Tell us. What made you fall for Aakash - His Specs or His well-maintained Beard?"
"That's such a silly question Khushi!"
Aakash retorted.
"Shut up Aakash. Let Payal answer"
"I really don't know. I'll go with his specs.. Those look too sexy on his face"
Payal said, blushingly.
"Really Payal?"
Aakash asked amazed, while Payal nodded shyly.
Arnav and Khushi both chuckled at her innocence and rotated the bottle again.
This time it stopped at Arnav.
"I'll also take truth"
"OK.. I'll ask him a question."
Aakash said and smirked thinking of his question.
"Have you ever slept with any girl?"
The question made all of them attentive, and the most was Khushi.
"No yaar. I think I'm too young to do anything like that"
Arnav said, making an innocent face.
Without any further discussion on any such topic, Khushi was the one who quickly rotated the bottle, only to get it pointed towards herself.
"Khushi? Truth or Dare?" Arnav asked, very-well known of her choice.
"I'll take dare" came a confident reply of her's.
"OK Khushi. You seem to be very daring! Lets give you a daring dare"
Aakash said, looking at Khushi with an expression full of mischief.
"I'm ready!"
"Kiss Arnav"
"That's so simp-- WHAT?" said a dumb-folded Khushi.
"I thought you are not a coward" Aakash challenged her.
"No I'm not. B..But I..I can't k..kiss him!" stammered Khushi.
"Come on Khushi! You can definitely do that"
Payal cheered her.
She glanced at Arnav from the corner of her eyes and found him smirking at her.
"OK I'll do it" Khushi said and leaned forward and gave a small peck on Arnav's cheek.
"No Khushi. Kiss doesn't mean on cheek. You need to kiss him on his lips"
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!"
Khushi screamed, while the other three laughed.
"Yaar Candy, it's okay. You can skip this dare.. No one will say you anything"
Arnav tried to comfort her.
"No Arnav. I can do anything else. I can jump out of the window. I can crawl like a snail. I can do anything stupid. Just change the task, and you'll see how talented I actually am"
Khushi explained.
"The dare cannot be changed"
Aakash said, and folded his arms close to his chest.
"Do it Khushi. See we are all friends here. And you are kissing your best friend only"
Payal said.
"Arnav. Just close your eyes!"
Khushi said, quite loudly.
Arnav did as instructed by her. Her face already flushed with embarrassment. 'What were her friends making her do?' She leaned forward and touched her lips with his. A slight touch sent shivers down their spines. Her hands went up to clutch his shoulders and he wrapped his arms around her, drawing her close. None of both knew why were they taking this so forward, but the most strange thing was that they both were enjoying it. As soon as their lips parted and pressed against each other, they both heard clearing of throats; which made them part away.
Khushi's face was as red as a ripe tomato! She had never felt so embarrassed in her life!
"Wow guys! That was passionate" Aakash complimented them.
"Shut up Aakash" Arnav retorted, and looked at Khushi, who was blushing like hell.
"I'll just get something to drink"
she made a false excuse and sprinted downstairs to the kitchen.
'I've just kissed my Best Friend' she thought.
Were they still Just Friends??

"See that girl.. She was with me in 11th standard. I liked her at that time, but never got a chance to tell her this. Now she's here. So should I tell her?"
Arnav pointed towards a girl, and asked Khushi.
Khushi - for some unknown reason - didn't feel comfortable while Arnav told her this.
