PART - 2

She went inside the galley and put the tray on the counter simultaneously releasing the breath she has been holding back from the moment she heard his words. She once again wondered What is it that got her attracted to him in the first place'?! Is it that golden complexion of his skin which made him different from other Americans she is used to encounter in this first class cabin and also his name proved him to be of Indian origin. Not much of his skin is seen looking at his custom tailored dark blue suit but still she felt that his complexion is not something regular where it got slightly mixed up with tan and with that intensely dark eyes, dense black hair, chiselled jawline, he definetly stood out to be the most handsome person she has ever laid her eyes upon. Moreover it is completely unfair of one man to be devastatingly handsome and also a billionaire. She shook her head to empty her mind from the thoughts which have been roaming around from the moment she has set her eyes upon that handsome stranger and once again came to the first class for safety demonstrations. He is intently studying her face, his gaze never leaving it, not even for a second. In all this, only she knew how hard it was for her to do the demonstration gracefully with shaking hands. Finally sighing in relief she took her seat while struggling herself with seat buckles. She closed her eyes to get the much needed composure but who is she kidding when she knows that it is practically impossible as her jump seat is facing diagonally opposite to the handsome Maan Singh Khurana!! To her relief Rishabh came and took the seat beside her when the pilot's voice came up saying that the plane is about to take off. He started conversing with her and after a while she too joined the convo forgetting about the handsome stranger for a moment by carefully avoiding looking at him. But how long could she stop herself and her eyes once again went to meet a pair of familiar ones and got baffled to find the familiar warmth missing in them and finding them unusually cold. Then she shifted her gaze to look at the thing he is looking at and to find what has caused the change in those beautiful eyes. That's when she saw her fingers interlinked with her best friend's but then she did not find it odd because it is sort of a habit for them to hold each other's hands at the time of take off or landing. But still she couldn't take that glacial look in his eyes and slowly removed her hand from Rish's grip as again it is not something unusual because they would just do that after the take off or landing. After few minutes the bell dinged indicating that it is time to remove the safety belts and she at once stood up to prepare the galley for inflight service. Before she could get inside Rishabh held her shoulders from back and started whispering in her ears.

Rishabh : Do you mind if I go and serve in the main cabin , its full today..

It's our regular routine that if first class is practically empty and main class is full we take up turns to help attendants in main class and today it's Rish's turn but I am practically searching for reasons to escape first class today and what better than this?!

Geet turned her head to look at him before answering

Geet : Ahhh!! Rish! Why don't you serve first class and I take up main cabin.. I mean you also have to do paper work right!! So you need time and also we had taken extra shift yesterday so why don't you serve here and take rest for a while before starting the paper work.

Rish : Ohh C'mon Munchkin. You just chill and besides its my turn today. So I will help them and will be back in no time. Okay.

He kissed on top of her head before leaving and she turned around completely to glance at him worriedly and after that she did the mistake of taking a peep at the one who has completely taken over her heart and body right now. The moment her eyes fell on him she saw him looking at her intently but this is not even the earlier cold look before when that one was filled with some unknown raw emotion but this is with complete fury and something else which she could not decipher. She saw him clutching the hand rest firmly with his palm as if he is trying to gain some control on god knows what. But still she couldn't accept the change in him with the way he is looking at her and not able to take that anymore she left the place to continue on her work.

She again filled the glasses with champagne and once again taking a deep breathe opened the curtain of galley to take the orders from the passengers, if any. Involuntarily her gaze went towards Maan but this time she got slightly surprised and tab bit disappointed to find him immersed in his laptop and his face as hard as rock which is complete contrast to the emotion she always found on his face whenever she looks at him, that is until takeoff. Shaking her head literally to erase the unnecessary thoughts she went back to her job. Again this time she started serving from back and found most of the passengers dozed off in their seats with just a group of three remaining at the verge of losing the conscious. All the while she seeked glances at Maan but found him immersed in work not sparing even a single glance at her.

Geet(st) : Why should I be bothered??!! Its good that he has lost his interest in me. He certainly does not look like a kind of guy one should date. He is more of dangerous sort.

Still that reasoning did not decrease the amount of anxiety she is feeling because of his presence. She finally reached Maan's seat and once again her hands shook looking at his demeanor. It felt as if everything happened in a blink of an eye, one moment she was holding the tray, preparing herself to ask him if he needed anything and the next moment her grip on the tray loosened making the rich golden coloured liquid spill over his coat. But before she could do more damage Maan held her hands with firm grip, half standing and balancing both the lady and her tray.

Geet's eyes widened and quickly said

Geet : I am so sorry Mr.Khurana.

She spoke breathless and soft which all the more made her flustered.

Maan : That's fine Miss.Handa.

She quickly escaped from there to the galley and got her breath back once she reached there.

Geet : Heights of unprofessionalism!! Ahhh Geet! How could you do it!!

She composed once again and went back to his seat.

Geet : Mr. Khurana, If you want I can get a quick laundry done for your coat or atleast I will hang it up safely till the liquid dries off.

Maan did not say anything but stood up and took a step towards aisle and suddenly Geet felt as if he has conquered her territory as now he seems to be dangerously close to her. Though her instincts are screaming at her to move away but his look had made her paralysed and she stood there helplessly watching him shed his coat and handing it over to her. Her eyes gradually moved from top to botton looking at him standing in a crisp white shirt and dark blue tie looking all the more muscular. For a moment she stood there fantasizing about what must hidden beneath that shirt he is wearing. One glance at him clearly gave her the proof of well maintained muscular body, the working-out-for-hours-in-gym kind of a body, and how he would feel with her arms wrapping around that body and her fingers grazing his skin. She came out of her fantasy when he again called her name and this time she simply took the coat from him without any delay and once again turned back while his words again made her stop in her track.

Maan : If you are not too busy then I want to have few words with you Miss.Handa. Please have a seat next to me.

Geet looked shocked and turned around giving him a nervous gaze while she looked around to see if any of the guests saw her interaction with this stunning stranger. She took a relief to find almost everyone in deep slumber and once again looked at him.

Geet : Well, I am afraid I can't do that Mr.Khurana. It is against my working rules.

Maan : Ahh!! Stop it Geet.

Once again she felt the same tingling sensation which she felt the first time she heard her name from his lips but soon shrugged off the feeling and tried concentrating on his words.

Maan : Almost everyone here are out of their senses and I am sure no one will find out about our secret rendezvous.

He said the last few words with a naughty glint in his eye and mischievous smile on his lips. But soon his lips turned into a grim line and eyes turned cold that she doubted whether what she has seen earlier is real or not. Neverthless

Geet : Okayy! Let me just go and hang this coat safely.

She again went to the galley trying to recollect everything that happened between them from the time they met, for the second time. She realized not once his gaze left her face whenever she is there in his presence. The only exception is few minutes after the take off when she went to take orders from other passengers where she found him involved in his work rather than her. Though she convinced herself she is mistaken about him having interest in her but with his recent request she understood that he still is, but in what way?! She has seen many people who hit on her but all their gazes landed upon her body more than her face or eyes. But his is different. All the time he looked at her face as if he is solving some puzzle, as if he is getting to know things about her which nobody is supposed to know.

Meanwhile her mind argued that May be he checked her out when she is not looking at him so now she can push his name also into 'Pervert list' , but again somewhere her heart counter-attacked.

She shrugged herself from all those thoughts going to the first class cabin and again found him immersed in his laptop. She sighed thinking whether he will ever take his time off to sleep or to take off from his work ever. Well why would he, when he has a God-Knows-How-Big freaking empire to handle she thought to herself. She cleared her throat to make him aware of his presence.

Maan looked up from his laptop to find her standing near his seat but still his expression hasn't changed from "being expressionless". With his deep baritone voice, he said

Maan : Come on Geet, Have a seat.

Geet came and sat beside him, though she is literally shivering from inside still she managed to put a calm face while Maan sat upright, leaning back on his comfy seat looking straight ahead. Geet angled towards him keeping her hands in her lap and looked at his face intently but could not guess anything looking at his calm yet hard face. Without sparing any glance at her , Maan continued speaking,

Maan : Before I say anything just answer my question Miss.Handa. The guy who was sitting beside you at the time of takeoff, Is he your boyfriend, are you two seeing eachother?!

Geet looked stunned listening to this unexpected question. She has convinced herself that he would hit on her like every other guy who showed interest in her but may be in his own style and then somehow she thought she could show her disinterest and would easily turn him down then. But not even in her dreams she thought he would directly ask her something like this, let alone the bluntness in his voice or his actions. Still she thought this is for her own good that he has asked the question directly without beating around the bush because this clearly told her that this guy came with a series of danger bells attached with his presence and she clearly cannot risk her sane-self for such an intimidating personality even though he has got the looks to kill for. He saw her once again gritting his teeth and clutching the arm rest tightly but before she could get her sane mind ready to give an answer, her stupid heart and traitor body gave away the words.

Geet : No Sir. We are best of friends and we love each other but it's platonic.

The moment the words flew out of her mouth, she sat straight and now looked in the front rather than at him. Shit,shit, shit. Why didn't I say yes. That's what I always tell people whenever I fell into such odd situations, that Rish is my boyfriend. Why couldn't I say the same this time??!! She chided herself mentally. Because you want it to be different this time you crazy stupid girl.This time her furious mind screamed at her for behaving irrationally.From corner of eye, she saw him now taking her previous position of angling towards her but still she kept looking straight. She widened her eyes when she found that his warm long fingers circling around her wrist and she looked up at him only to find him smiling at her warmly not just with his lips but with his eyes too.

This is the time he actually started checking her out for the first time. Her breaths started growing heavier making her chest rise and fall eachtime which actually distracted him for a moment. His gaze fell upon the mock-men's tie that lay on her chest and running his index finger along it he once again looked at her as if trying to gauge her reaction from this act.

She did not make any attempt to hide her growing attraction, well it is better to say that she is not in a state to make her mind work as he has completely taken care of her mind, body and heart. Looking at her reaction to his act, he left a deep groan and immediately took his hand back.

Maan : Well then are you seeing someone else though I could guess you are not?!

Without taking her eyes off him, she simply nodded her head in no. Something in his eyes clearly compelled her to say the truth though she has decided the other way. Meanwhile he completely relaxed back in his chair while having a small smile on his lips. Soon her imagination went to how incredible it could be if she could kiss those beautiful lips passionately if only given a chance. She bit her lip nervously thinking about how her thoughts have taken a sinful path. He looked at her biting lips and his gaze hardened and she once again found losing herself in his piercing gaze.

Maan : Good.

He said and she came out of her dazed and looked at him like a deer caught in headlights.

Geet : Sorry??!!

Maan : Just tell me where you are going to stay once you get down the plane. I will send a car to pick you up. We are going to have lunch together and we need to talk Miss.Handa. I have a proposition for you and also I want to know about your work schedule.

Wow, He is not asking me out, he is just ordering me out. This is so not done Geet. You just tell him a straight no told her mind though every inch of her body is screaming out to say YES.

Geet : Ahh Well Mr. Khurana.

Maan : Maan.. Its Maan for you.

She controlled her urge to roll her eyes with the way he kept on demanding from her but still continued.

Geet : Not going to happen..

Maan : What?! You calling me Maan or you not accepting my lunch offer.

Geet : Well both.

She simply stated while Maan did not even flinch a bit with her direct denial but remained irritatingly calm with the same piercing gaze. Geet let a small sigh thinking that he should politely decline his offer once more.

Geet : Listen Mr.Khurana. I have understood that.. that.. somewhere you are interested in me. But I will have to politely decline. I cannot go out with you in any case. I mean.. I.. I Dont date.

Maan : No no no. You are taking me wrong. I dont date either and I certainly don't want to take you out to some freaking restaurent and..

Here it goes.. Is there anything which could be more humiliating than this to a girl.

Desire which shook every inch of her body few seconds before disappeared at once with his few set of words.

How the hell could you think that this f****** rich, incredibly handsome billionaire is interested in you, you stupid girl. He would most certainly be interested in some freakingly gorgeous actresses, models or some bratty daddy's princesses who don't even have to earn a single penny to live their lives off. Okay I think you are being insensible here Geet. Calm down.

Calming her nerves, she slowly asked

Geet : Then what do you have in your mind Mr.Khurana.

Maan smirked which Geet thought could be one of the most breathtaking smiles if only he could have done it properly.

Maan : Well, I don't usually play with words Geet. So let me come straight to the point. I am seriously attracted to you Ms. Geet Handa and I think even you are attracted to me as well to some extent. Ahhh To hell I think... I am sure that I do effect you as much as you effect me and I want to do something about this. So here I am with a proposal.

He grazed his fingers on the backside of her palm before holding her wrist once again and not once averting his gaze from her face, continued saying

Maan : Why don't you have lunch with me tomorrow at my place so that we could discuss about this more privately.

He said in a deep husky tone which she never heard from him in their brief introduction and his eyes turned dark with desire.

Maan : I promise I will not disturb you again if you are not interested. But I am pretty sure that I can keep you interested and..

She released her wrist from his grip at once and held her hand up indicating him to stop at once. Even though how tempting his offer sounded and how dangerously she is attracted to him but still she thinks she deserves something much better than this. But still she couldn't ignore the evident arousal somewhere low in her belly caused by his words and she couldn't understand how the hell her body could still react in such a manner even after listening to his irritating proposal. That made her hate herself more and all the more increased the course of anger that shot up her head but still she held her composure as she doesn't want to create any scene in her workplace.

Geet : Listen once and for all Mr.Khurana. I am not interested in either you or your .. proposal, in any way. You are seriously mistaken that I am attracted to you in first place and I don't have time for people like you. So please excuse me.

She spitted out the words angrily and left to the galley only to be followed by him. Soon she felt him behind her and turned around once again opening her mouth to say no to him only to be kissed by him, hungrily, passionately.
