Chapter 5: Mind games and Malfunctions.
Vidushi almost died out of utter shock when he moved closer, pressing his lips to her cheek.
A kiss. A soft, gentle kiss.
His stubble scratched her like his words usually did, making up for the pleasurable sensations that were spreading across her being like a heatwave.
Pleasure and Pain.
Intuition told her that he was equally skilled at both.
A shiver travelled down her spine.
His lips moved to the corner of her lips and she felt him smirk against her skin.
'Isne toh sach mein Chipko movement initiate kardiya...Shit! Kahi iska canteen mein adult movie banane ka plan hai kya?' Vidushi moved her face away from him.
She could feel the heat on her cheeks, her hands and every part of her body.
Not good.
She expected some more taunts about her shamelessness and her wanton nature as usual. More smirks and glares.
She did not expect the words that escaped his lips.
"We are going on a date jaan. After we are done with those pesky juniors, we can have some alone time." He winked at her.
Winked.
Winked?
She gulped.
"Who are you and what have you done with m...Parth?" She could almost kick herself for the slip of tongue. My Parth?
"Are? What's wrong with you baby? I'm your Parth only! Itni uncertainity se kyun bol rahi ho? Bas itna samjho ki Aaj se I'm going to be the boyfriend of your dreams." Parth gave her what he hoped was a seductive smile.
The startled look on her face, her parted lips and big eyes told him he was looking like a creep.
'Shit...I don't want to scare her off...Damage control karna padega!' Parth thought frantically 'Pura plan chaupat ho jaega!'
"PKC ki lecture hai...Main...main.." she got up, stammering and heart beating wildly.
"Ruko, I'm coming with you. Sath baithenge" He put his arm around her shoulder.
She tried to escape but he tightened the grip.
"People will be watching us" she whispered, hoping his concern for his image would get the better of his newfound creepy behavior.
"So what? Let them watch. Like I said, tum meri ho. It's better if they all know it." He lead her to PKC's class.
"Parth?" Sanyukta called out.
He felt Vidushi stiffen under his grip and he loosened it, letting her go. She dashed away from him, sitting down at one of the back benches.
'Back hun? Even better for my plan. Ise chodunga nahi aaj. Lovey Dovey BF chahiye tha na?' He smirked inwardly
"Parth?" Sanyukta sounded impatient.
He turned around to see her holding a book.
"Randhir ko de do." she said in a controlled voice.
"Acha..okay.." Parth mummbled.
He himself was not exactly happy with Sanyukta and Randhir.
One wanted to use him as a postal service and the other was challenging him to die a slow death...2 months with Vidushi was going to kill him.
Unless he killed her first.
Well, if he had to suffer, he'd drag her down with him. After all, she was the one who had told him to fake being her boyfriend.
"Parth?" Sanyukta deposited the book in his hands and returned to her bench.
"Ye lo. Special delivery." Parth gave RD a glare and slammed the book on his bench.
"Thanks...tum itna acha kaam kar rahe ho...Mein toh hamari shaart definitely jitne wala hun" Randhir smirked.
"Matlab?" Parth glared at him.
"Khud dekhlo!" Randhir smirked, looking back
Parth followed Randhir's lead.
Vidushi was talking to one of Yoyo's Chamchas.
With a very wide smile.
"Prepare to be dumped Kashyup. It's already began." Randhir grinned.
Parth stormed off angrily, his hands shaking with anger.
-----------------------------
Vidushi's face muscles were hurting from all the smiling.
Frankly, what she wanted to do was yell in frustration and tell the idiot in front of her what she really thought.
"Matlab aap seriously...Modeling karni chahiye!" The chamcha had a shit-eating grin on his face.
" Abko toh Magazines ke cover pe hona chaiye"
"Ohh...Main chalta hun..Waise batana bhool gaya..Looking very hot" the chamcha winked at her before he finally left her to her own thoughts.
She put her head down on the bench in frustration.
'What the hell? Kya ho raha hai ye? Pehle Parth ka itna chipakna aur random logon ka flirt karna...Shayad tu sapna dekh rahi hai...'
Suddenly, she felt something touch her shoulder.
She took her head off the table only to look into Parth's face. He had the most scary grin she had ever seen.
'Shit...Tu toh gae ab kaam se.' she bit her lower lip nervously.
Parth's gaze moved to her lips.
The smirk widened.
She sat frozen in her anxiety as he sat down beside her.
He opened his mouth to say something but PKC had already entered.
Vidushi almost sighed in reflief as his laser eyes focused on his book and not on her.
PKC droned on and on.
'PKC...Pakau Kabbad CHAUDHARI...chalo...Atleast mujhe Parth ki killer looks se chootkara mila.' Vidushi thanked nobody in particular.
Parth watched her mechanically take down the notes and frowned.
Smirking, he scribbled his words onto paper and slipped the note into her book.
Vidushi's heart almost stopped beating when she read his neatly printed words.
'Stop biting that lip. It makes me want to do things.'
He had even added a little winky face.
'SHUT UP idiot! It's a game...he is playing with your head!' she scolded herself.
But she couldn't deny the fact that those words did funny things to her insides.
And her face.
She tore the note into tiny, unreadable pieces and threw it into her bag.
Parth's cellphone vibrated.
It was a message from Yoyo:
Ladki ko patana hai toh thodi bahut tareef karo...Jaise mein apne Kaustu...
Parth stopped reading.
What the actual...?
He looked up to see Yoyo grin at RD.
What was going on.
His cellphone Vibrated again.
Randhir: Chaal, tune meri book itni pyaar se wapis ki, toh maine tere liye love guru se free help service manga. You need all the help you can get.
Fair chance dena chahta hun.
Parth shoved the phone into his bag.
He reached out and gently held Vidushi's left hand in his right hand.
She didn't move.
'Shit...when did she suddenly get this immunity?' Parth gently stroked her skin of her hand with his thumb, drawing slow circles on her skin.
She shivered but kept writing.
'Shit' Parth cursed. 'Jaldi kuch Karna Padega.'
He let her hand go and she immediately shifted closer against the wall and away from him.
Parth moved closer to her and she looked up to give him her signature 'what the hell look'
"Itna chipakna jarori hai?' she hissed.
"Ofcourse...Meri itni hot girlfriend hai..Main nahi chipkunga toh koi aur chipkega...And I can't let that happen can I?" he growled in her ear.
"Parth dekho..ye fake..fake ..." she began but he put a finger on her half open lips.
"Sorry baby..Meri acting bahoot realistic hai..I don't do anything half way. Isliye...main genuinely tumhe apni girlfriend ki taraah treat kar raha hun. Aaj date hai yyad hai na? We will leave immediatly after the junior class. Excuses banane ka time hi nahi dunga" he kissed her ear.
She shivered and nodded.
Parth smirked "Good girl Vidushi...Aise hi obey karti raho..I swear tum zyada" he whispered into her ear "hot lagti ho...Itni hot ki..." he let his words trail off
She blushed red hot at the implied meaning.
'Ye toh...ye toh mujse bhi bada gutter mind nikla!!' she was screaming inside her head.
The bell rang.
Parth got up quickly and winked at her "Lab mein milte hai. Dressup karne ki jaroorat nahi hai..aise hi hot lagti ho"
He left her, sitting there in a daze.
She pinched herself hard.
"Shit!" she yelped.
It was a damn nightmare.
----------------------------------------------------
Parth banged his fist on the table.
Damn that girl!
Where the hell was she?
She hadn't turned up for the bloody junior teaching job.
"Dress up kar rahi hogi. Damn. Kahan phass gaya toh...Seduce karna tha na...Ab bajegi teri band.!" he spoke under his breath.
Where in the name of god was she?
He picked up his stuff and got ready to walk out.
'Dekhlunga ise! How dare she ditch me! It's not like I'm dying to be with her!" he mummbled.
He was so engrossed in his own thoughts that he didn't see the hoodie clad girl in front of him
He collided against her, sending her lithe body to the floor.
" I'm sorry" he mummbled, holding out his hand to help her up.
She picked herself up without his help.
Her hoodie had slid off her head, revealing two low ponytails. An a very very familiar face.
His breath caught in his throat.
He had never seen her like this.
"Vidushi? Ye kya hulia bana liya hai?" he gawked at her in shock.
"What hulia? This is the real me. No make up. No dressy fancy clothes."
No wonder he had not recognised her instantly.
The makeup and the short clothes was what he thought of when he thought of Vidushi.
And now, she stood before him wearing...
He looked at her carefully from head to toe.
Flats and loose yoga pants with a too big hoodie and pigtails?
She did look absolutely adorable though.
Where the **** did that thought come from?
"Oy pervert! My eyes are here!!" she poked him in the chest.
"I'm the pervert huh?" he smirked.
Grabbing the hand pokiing him, he pulled her flat against his chest and caged her body with his hands around her slim waist.
"Wha...what are you doing?" his hand was slipping into her hoody and tracing her bare back.
"Being the pervert..." he ran a finger down her spine.
"I'll scream. Let me go." she hissed.
"One condition." he stroked her side
"No conditions..." she slid her own hands into his T-shirt, tracing his abs.
He let go of her immediately, not wanting her to know what she was doing to him.
"What the hell were you doing Vidushi!?" he demanded.
"Touching you like you were touching me.." she smirked.
He decided it was safest to change the topic.
"Kahan thi tum? Juniors ki lab mein kyun nahi ahi thi?" he demanded.
"Tumse Matlab? I had an emergency to attend to. Kal se nahi hoga." she mummbled.
"Batake jati. Ek message karti toh kya tumhe takleef hoti?" he asked, bitterness coating his words.
"Phone check karlo!" she yelled.
He pulled his phone out.
1 unread message.
Vidushi: Wont be able 2 mke it 2 the junior lab 2day. Urgent work @ home. Had to go. Will be back soon. Maya maam knows.
"Shit..." Parth smacked his own forehead.
"Sorry bolo!" She crossed her arms over her chest.
"Sorry kyun?" he retorted.
"Acha...I'm going. Akele jana apne date par." she glared at him and turned around to leave.
"Ruko..I'm s...sorry " the words left his mouth.
She turned around with a smirk "For what exactly?" she narrowed her eyes.
"Dekho...Don't push me...I said sorry!" he glared at her.
"I don't want to go on a date with an angry person. It's no fun." she pouted.
"Bas Vidushi! Khelna hai na? I'll make the rules this time!" he roared.
"What rules? " She scoffed.
"My rules." he smirked.
"No way." She rolled her eyes.
"Are you scared of me Vidushi? Are you scared of me doing this" he pulled her close.
'Yes. You terrify me!' her senses yelled.
She forced herself to laugh "You and scary? You are like a kitten who thinks he's a tiger!"
"Hmm...I wonder.." he kissed her neck
"Wonder...No..you are too chicken for that..Itni himmat toh tumme hai nahi" he pulled away.
"Listen you..I can do anythinG alright? I'm not weak! " she hit his shoulder.
"Really..but You can't..." he goaded her.
"I can do it. I will do it." she declared.
"Without listening to what I want?" Parth raised an eyebrow.
"Yep." she popped the 'p' glaring at him.
"Okay. NOW you can't back out!" he pulled her into him again.
"Ew...I'm not doing 'it' with you!" she struggled.
He laughed.
"Don't worry...I'm not that cheap. I want 1 more month. Be my girlfriend for the next month too." he revealed.
"What?" she stood there stunned.
"You are brave. I got to give you that." Parth pulled away.
"This was not in the deal..." Vidushi mummbled, lookind down.
"You just made a new deal, sweetheart." Parth pulled her to a lab table.
"I got chinese for you. I heard you like it" he picked up a fork and feed her some noodles.
She chewed, vowing to kill Parth.
'But he got me noodles...I'm eating them after months..' she smiled as he fed her another fork of noodles.
Damn him and the noodles. Both were too hot to resist!
"Are they good?" he smiled at her.
"Try some. Best noodles ever!" she picked up the chopsticks and feed him.
"You know how to use chopsticks?" he looked at her in surprise.
"I'm a woman of many talents" she smirked.
"Like what..." he demanded playfully.
"Like finishing all the spring rolls without you noticing" she replied.
"Hey..!!" He looked at the container.
There were still a few left.
"I'm sorry.. I actually meant I'm talented at making a fool of Parth" she giggled.
"Acha..you want to know my talents?" he asked in a stern manner.
"I know them...Basketball, loyal friendship, capable captain, good human...But you know what...you suck at being a boyfriend." she whispered.

I love that Vidushi is the dominatrix in their relationship and Parth is the scandalized beau.
