Arnav grabs her hand and kiss her palm, "Rest dear, till you can. We have long night ahead", Arnav winked at Khushi, who gulped and averted her eyes.

After almost an hour ---------------------------

Khushi opened her eyes as she felt the car coming to a stop; she had almost dozed off looking out of window. She blinked her eyes and look ahead. They were outside a large black steel gate. She looks towards Arnav in question, who was typing something in his cell phone.

"Arnavji?", Khushi called his name a little hesitatingly.

"Hmmm", Arnav frown looking at his cell and then over to Khushi.

"Um where are we?", asked Khushi as the gate got opened by guards and their car moved inside the premises.

Arnav raise his head and looked around, "It's a resort ... on the outskirts of Mumbai", and then got back to his cell phone as he typed a message to Aman and then switched off his cell phone.

Outskirts of Mumbai? That far?', thought Khushi as she looked around the area. Their car stopped in front of the resort's lobby entrance. Raj came out and quickly opened the door for Arnav. And then jog towards Khushi and opened her door.

"Raj, get the luggage", said Arnav as he came to Khushi and held his hand out to help her. Khushi holds his hand and came out of the car. She stumbles a little, as her legs were a bit numb due to constant sitting.

"You alright?", asked Arnav with concerned. Khushi nodded her head with a smile.

"Welcome Mr. and Mrs. Raizada to Lagoon Resorts", said the Manager who had come out to greet their guests. Aman had already called him to inform of their arrival. And he knows well that they are the VIP guests.

Khushi smiles at the manager while Arnav just nod his head as he wound his arm around Khushi pulling her close. "Please come", said the Manager as he move towards the big glass door.

They all walk inside ... Arnav holding Khushi close ... and Raj behind them with a medium size carry-on suitcase.

"Refreshments?", Manager pointed towards the waiter, who was coming to them with a tray holding juice glasses.

"We would like to go to our room first", said Arnav and look at Khushi who looked visibly tired but still supporting a smile on her face, "And yeah may be a juice for the lady".

Manager nodded and gesture with his hand to move forward. They walk straight ahead ... there was another double glass doors at the end. The guard opened it and they came out. It was a beautiful place with a long elongated fountain in the middle, with rows of small cottage style rooms on both sides.

The manager move towards the left side and stopped in front of the 2^nd cottage room. He opened the door with electronic key card, "Here you go sir", said the Manager and move back.

Arnav led Khushi inside. He then turns back and took the juice glass from waiter and key card from the Manager and dismissed them both. He placed them on the side table, beside the door, and then takes the carry-on bag from Raj, "I will call you tomorrow morning when needed.", said Arnav as he slide the bag inside and placed it beside the door.

"Alright Sir, good night", said Raj and move away... he had a small room booked here, as he will be driving them back tomorrow.

Arnav closed and locked the door and turn around. He saw Khushi standing 2 feet away of him looking straight ahead. He moves towards her thinking why is she still standing here and then he stopped seeing the reason. The small living room had the path of roses, with candles on both sides, leading towards the bedroom.

Arnav had told Aman to inform the management that he doesn't want any kind of over the top arrangements but guess the management got to know about the wedding of their VIP guests and they couldn't resist from decorating the room. Arnav look at Khushi, whose cheeks were red and was fidgeting with her fingers, he smirked and move closer.

Khushi was lost looking at the decoration, though they were minimum, but were speaking out loud about what night it is. She was lost in her thoughts and her heart doing fast dhak dhak that she didn't realized that Arnav was standing beside her. She came out of her thoughts when Arnav picked her up in his arms. She gasped and clutched Arnav's sherwani collar. Arnav look down at her with a smile and move towards the bedroom. Their eyes locked with each other.

He gently lays Khushi down on the bed. Khushi closed her eyes tightly as her heart beats faster and faster ... she could hear the drumming in her ears. Arnav looked at her closed eyes and then at her hands, holding his sherwani in her tight fists. He holds her hands in both of his and gently pulls them away. He caresses her hands and pecks them. He can see her breathing getting heavier from the rise and fall of her chest. He moves back ... he doesn't want to scare her nor rush with anything ... especially with the intimacy.

This night is special ... it is their night ... the night of union ... not only of two bodies but of two souls.

Khushi was waiting for his touch ... his lips ... his kiss. But when she couldn't feel any of it for a minute ... she slowly opens her eyes and then sits up on the bed. Arnav was not there.

She was about to call him when he came into her vision, with a juice glass in his hand.

"Here drink this", said Arnav as he handed her the glass. Khushi took the glass and then look at him questioningly.

"Why don't you relax hmmm ... I will freshen up ... this (he opens the button of his sherwani) is so uncomfortable. I can only imagine how difficult it must have been for you to carry all that", said Arnav pointing towards her attire.

Huh? What is he talking about? Aren't they going to? Isn't he going to?, many thoughts were rushing in her mind. They both have waited for this night then why isn't he doing anything?

She blushed with the thought and look down ... she was feeling so wanton at the moment.

"Why don't you take off all of that hmm, I will just take a quick shower", said Arnav as he bend down and kiss her forehead. He smiles at her, seeing her red cheeks, and then move around the bed and went into the washroom.

Khushi let go of the breath, she seems to be holding. She looks around the room and smiles. She was feeling so nervous and hell even scared ... but her Arnav just knows how to comfort her. She was thank full of him to give her sometime, god she needed it to prepare herself, to ready herself for him. Though she is already, but the nervousness just not going away.

She sips the juice and close her eyes ... god she was thirsty. Her heart swells with love for her new husband. He is taking care of her comfort more than his own desires.

Yes, she knows about it very well. She had seen his burning glances towards her ... his touches ... his impatient gestures. All telling her that he cannot wait for them to be alone ... to fulfill his desire ... but still he is keeping her comfort, her ease before his own needs.

She drinks the juice and finished it no time. She put the glass on the side table and then stood up. Arnav was right ... all this is heavy. She moves towards the small dressing table, just opposite to the bed. She took off her dupatta first and immediately felt that a huge weight has been lifted off. She put her dupatta on the stool and then started to take off her jewelries.

Calm down ... slow ... take it slow, was the mantra going on in Arnav's mind while standing blow the hot jets of water. Only he knew how he had control himself from not taking his Khushi then and there. He does not want to give the impression of a wanton husband, who wants to fulfill his desires without thinking of his wife's comfort or thoughts and just pounce on her like an animal. He knows that Khushi desires him just like he does. But he can clearly see how nervous she is. He does not want to do anything for which Khushi isn't sure or ready. Even he is nervous, his desires are so strong and hard that he is worried that he will scare Khushi ... and he doesn't want that nor he want to hurt her in anyway. She is very precious to him.

He sighed as he runs his hand over his face and in his hair, slow ... slow, he told himself as he shut off the shower and took the towel to dry himself. He put on the bathrobe and opened the washroom door while rubbing the towel on his wet hair. He came out and his movements stopped as he saw Khushi standing in front of the mirror.

Khushi pull out another one of many pins from her hair and put it down on dresser. She closes her eyes as her shoulders slumped. Too many pins and it's a tedious task ... her shoulders and neck had started to ache. She moves her head left right and then opened her eyes ... they instantly clash with the brown ones staring at her through the mirror. Her heart beat rose as she saw Arnav moving towards her ... eyes fixed on hers.

Without saying a word he put the towel on the dresser and started to remove the remaining pins from her hair. Khushi eyes fixed on his face, having a frown as he concentrated on removing the pins, taking care not to pull her hair. As the last pin was put on the dresser he runs his hand through her hair, making them fall on her back. He move closer to her and wound his hands around her stomach and pull her into him.

Home ... both felt like they are there where they truly belong. Only with each other.

Khushi closes her eyes, feeling his breath on her nape. Arnav closed his eyes as he put his nose into her hair and then move towards her nape, breathing in her scent.

"Hmm ... I love how your hair smells", murmurs Arnav as he places a kiss on her hair. He entwined his right hand with Khushi's left hand over her stomach. With his left hand he moves her hair over to her left shoulder. He nuzzles her nape and then places a kiss on the crook of her neck. Khushi squeezes his fingers and put her right hand over theirs entwined ones.

"Scared?", asked Arnav as he places more kisses over the exposed area. Khushi opened her eyes and look into his, which were watching her closely.

"No", said Khushi in a whisper.

Arnav left her hand and move it to her side, going upwards to her shoulder and move her choli down exposing her shoulder. He kisses there and then look up into the mirror.

"Now?", asked Arnav. Khushi look back at him and shakes her head.

Arnav opened the dori and hooks of her choli and remove it from her, making it fall on the floor.

Khushi closes her eyes as she fisted her lehenga skirt with both hands. Arnav runs his hands up and down on her arms, shoulders and stomach ... feeling her soft milky skin. His hands went to her waist and work on lehenga skirt ties. After few seconds Arnav grabs her hands in his and pull them away from lehenga skirt, making it pooled down around her feet.

"Are you scared now?", asked Arnav ... his voice soft and tender.

-------------------------------------------

Arnav cannot explain what he was feeling at this moment ... so happy ... so peaceful and so complete now. He had never felt like this in his life ever before. And he was excited for his coming life with Khushi, which he was sure will be full with love and moments like this.

He look down at Khushi and saw her eyes close ... she was almost sleep. But there was no sleep in Arnav's eyes. The excitement and happiness is too much at this moment.

He felt her move close to him and raise her leg. He gulp as her knee brush with his member. God he is turning on again, thought Arnav, as he tried to control his building desires.

Khushi move again and he could see her uncomfortable expression. They both are naked and as their bodies were satiated now, he could feel the cold air coming from AC.

May be that is making her uncomfortable, thought Arnav as he raise himself a little and look for quilt which was at the bottom of the bed.

He slowly and carefully moves himself away from Khushi, not wanting to disturb her sleep. He stood up from bed and looks down at her sleeping form ... the want coming back. He averted his eyes chiding himself ... She needs rest, control yourself man.

He takes the quilt and covers her. Khushi stopped moving and then pouted as she rubs her face into the pillow not finding the warmth which was there before. Arnav sit on the edge of bed and runs his finger over her cheek and putting her hair away from her face. Khushi smiles in her sleep, making his smile too as she recognized his touch.

She looks so innocent ... so beautiful while sleeping peacefully, thought Arnav lovingly. He leans in and pecks on her hair. Giving her another long love-full glance he stood up and went to washroom feeling the need to relief himself.

He came out after few minutes and then wore his bath robe again. He gives a love-full glance at Khushi and then went towards the small kitchenette on the right of living room.

He smiles as he takes out the food from fridge. He knows well that Khushi will be waking up soon ... as her stomach was not properly fed and it will be making its presence known with the loud growl ... just like previous times. He chuckles remembering the timing of her stomach ... interrupting their romantic moments.

As instructed by Aman, the resort management had place few food items, which Arnav wanted, into the fridge ... as they can be eaten without heating them up.

He took two plates and put the food in them and then he started to make himself a cup of coffee ... he had just realize how much he needed it as he haven't drank his evening dose of it.

TO BE CONTINUED ...

The romance is not over yet ... 😆
