Chapter-3 Part-A
I wanted to finish the story within this chapter but then that would take many days, and this has gotten quite long as it is. So there'll be another part to this chapter, and I'm not going to say I'll try and update soon because I'm going on a 10-day trip tomorrow and even after returning I'll be super busy so...
I really hope you guys like this part since it took me quite a while to write 😆 Will be waiting to hear your feedback!
Also, this might contain the slightest bit of mature content.
Shivaay and Annika made their way downstairs, trying to act as normal as possible as if they hadn't just experienced the most mind-blowing thing in their life. The others gave them suspicious looks adorned with naughty smiles, but thankfully did not ask anything. Soon, the girls were preparing to look for the boys. Counting to 30, Annika could feel her heartbeat increasing with each passing second. Would she be the one to find Shivaay? Would they indulge in what they had just been doing, again? She blushed at the thought. The kiss had clearly messed with her head, since she was thinking of such 2 rs things. But despite herself, Annika couldn't help but want to be intimate with Shivaay. His haughty promise made the prospect even more enticing.
"Where are you lost, Annika? Let's go! Prinku's words brought Annika out of her thoughts. She hadn't realized when the other girls had stopped counting. Nodding, she started off on her search. They scattered around the house, and Annika was just contemplating if she should go upstairs in case Shivaay was there, when Saumya beat her to it. Halfway up the stairs, the lively girl turned around, a frisky look in her eyes. Biting her lip to hide her smile, Saumya addressed Annika.
"Do you want to go upstairs, didi?
Annika's face burned in embarrassment. Narrowing her eyes at Saumya, she replied indignantly-
"Why would I want to go upstairs? It's the same thing if you go or I go.
Saumya giggled.
"I don't think, so, didi. But whatever you say. With that, she ran up the stairs. Annika breathed out in relief. Although she had told the girls that she indeed liked Shivaay, whatever had happened upstairs was still too personal. Pursing her lips, she wondered if Shivaay had gone upstairs in the hopes that she would go searching for him. Shaking her head, she decided that she was probably just being hopeful for no reason. It was evident that he too felt for her, but the depth of those feelings was still unknown. So deciding to not let the baghad billa get into her head too much, she went in pursuit of the boys, determined to enjoy the day as much as possible.
On the other hand, Shivaay was indeed waiting for Annika upstairs. He hadn't even bothered to hide, but was merely leaning against the storeroom door, a smile playing on his lips. His mind kept replaying the scene that had occurred just a few minutes before, and his heart was soaring. Kissing her had been impulsive but when she reciprocated, Shivaay had found heaven. He had kissed a couple of times before but nothing could even begin to compare to this.
No one could even begin to compare to Annika.
She was something else entirely, and he had known it from the day they had met. His stubborn heart had refused to believe, for long, that he loved her, but now, that was the ultimate truth of his life. He breathed for Annika, and he would trade a thousand deals and even all of his wealth just to be able to spend some time with her.
And so it was that he was standing along with a goofy smile on his handsome face when Saumya found him.
"Caught you! She yelled out, making Shivaay jump. It took him a moment to register what she meant, and when he did, he rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. Where the hell was Annika?
Saumya seemed to catch on to his thought, and she tried hard to supress a giggle.
"Where you waiting for someone, bade bhaiya? I mean, it seems like you didn't even bother to hide! She said naughtily.
Shivaay turned pink in the cheeks.
"T-that's not true, He stammered, making Saumya put a hand over her mouth to hide her smile. "I was just about to hide... you, uh, caught me before that. Yeah.
Saumya's laughter could no longer be subdued and she burst into giggles. Walking over to her adorable bade bhaiya, she pulled his cheeks.
"You're too cute, bhaiya! She exclaimed, making Shivaay blush but smile nonetheless. Pulling her into a one-sided bear hug, he said,
"And you're too smart for your own good, miss!
**
Annika was really into the game downstairs, and she tiptoed around the house to look for the boys. Although deep down she was hoping to find Shivaay and indulge in something, ahem, interesting, she was also keen on actually enjoying the game. So putting in all the experience she had gathered with Sahil at hide-and-seek, she made as less noise as she could and advanced towards the kitchen. As she entered, she could make out a shadow behind a counter. It seemed like one of the boys were hiding behind it, in a crouched position. She was about to scurry there catch whoever it was, when she heard a hushed voice coming from the direction. It was Om.
"Pick up the phone, dammit! He whispered, the infuriation clear in his voice. Annika scrunched her nose in confusion. It was unusual for Om to sound so exasperated. She waited with bated breath for him to say something else, and hence give her a hint as to what was going on. When nothing such happened, she came and stood in front of him. Om looked up from the phone he had been staring just in time to see her.
"Annika, He said, eyes widening. Then remembering the game, he attempted the crack a smile that fooled no one. "Ha, you caught me! Should have found a better hiding place, I know. He said, standing up.
Annika continued looking at him with narrowed eyes.
"Who were you just talking to? She asked in a no-nonsense voice.
"No one, Om replied. Not untruthfully, since he had indeed only been talking to himself.
"Don't fool me, Om. I clearly heard you telling someone to pick up their phone!
"Oh that, Om said, sheepishly. "I was only talking to myself.
Annika rolled her eyes.
"I know that, but obviously you were referring to someone, weren't you?
Om sighed. He would, obviously, not lie. So he tried to resort to avoidance.
"Leave it na, Annika. It's not important.
Annika's face seemed to fall.
"I get it if it's something personal, and you don't want to tell me. She said in a low voice. "I mean, I thought we were friends but...
"Okay, okay, drama queen! Om laughed, raising his hands in defeat, making Annika giggle triumphantly. "I'll tell you.
5 minutes later, Annika was staring at him with her mouth hanging open.
"So you're telling me, She started, "that you met a girl at Bareily and fought with her, kindof exactly like Billuji and me, misunderstood and insulted her, only to find that she's in fact a great person and that you might just be in love with her!
"Yes, that's exactly what I've been telli- wait, love? I never said anything about love!
"Oh, but it's so obvious. Annika replied nonchalantly. "Otherwise you wouldn't be so keen to gain her forgiveness.
"Maybe I just want her forgiveness because I'm a good person. Om replied haughtily.
Annika gave a dramatic, fake laugh.
"No no, my friend. I can assure you that that is not the case. You brothers have difficulty saying sorry as it is. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't just do it to show your, what did you say? Yeah, goodness. Nope, you're in love. YOU ARE IN LOVE! She started singing the words, and was about to leave the kitchen, when suddenly turning back, she asked with a warm, genuine smile.
"What's her name?
"Gauri, Om replied, cheeks turning the slightest shade of pink.
**
Soon after playing hide-and-seek, everyone decided they were too hungry to do anything further and the boys prepared a delicious lunch which they all lavishly ate. Rudra then suggested they play Ludo, and everyone agreed heartily. They divided into three teams of two- Rudra-Annika, Shivaay-Sumo, Om-Prinku. Everyone was so involved in the game that they didn't notice when the sky became dark. It was almost 6 pm when their game ended, Shivaay's team winning after a competitive game which ofcourse made him show all the more tadi, much to Annika's annoyance. She glared at him through narrowed eyes, and Shivaay sent her way a flying-kiss. Annika looked around abashed to see if anyone had noticed, and was relieved to find that no one had.
"Oh My Mata! Rudra's dramatic, loud voice was heard, startling everyone. "Look outside, guys!
In their concentration into the game, everyone had failed to notice when it had started to rain heavily.
"Fhat the wuck! Shivaay exclaimed. "How will we get home in this weather?
"By car, Annika replied, as if he had asked the most stupid question ever. "Or does your car not work in this weather?
Shivaay rolled his eyes.
"What I mean is, it won't be safe to drive in this weather. The roads will be slippery and it's a long route. Nope, I'm not taking the risk. Not with all of you here. I think we should stay here tonight.
His suggestion was met with cheerful cries by everyone except Annika.
"But why? Cant' we wait for the rain to stop?
"Oh come on, didi. It'll be so much fun staying here! And we know Sahil is away on a trip so you can't make his excuse, either! Rudra tried persuading her.
After much coaxing from everyone and pleading look from Shivaay, she finally agreed.
"But on one condition, She said. "We will watch a horror movie now!
The suggestion was again met by enthusiasm by everyone, and a shake of his head by Shivaay, in a this-girl-is-crazy-manner.
They all settled into the plush couches around the tv, and Shivaay very strategically sat down next to Annika on a sofa that only barely had space for two. Since they were watching a horror movie, The Conjuring, it was absolutely necessary to turn off the lights. It was raining heavily outside and the sky was ominously dark, giving an eerie atmosphere that was perfect for watching scary movies. The only light was from the 65-inch LED TV. Only the outlining of the people could be made out. Om brought out some duvets from one of the bedrooms for everyone, and Annika and Shivaay shared one. Thankfully, since no one could really see each other, no one gave them teasing glances either. In fact, none of them noticed when Rudra had got up from his place beside Om and sat down next to Sumo. The movie started. None of them had seen the movie before, and it was hard to concentrate with Annika's constant remarks about how typical it was of a scary movie to have a plot that involved a family moving into a haunted house with no other people in vicinity. Whenever a ghost randomly popped up, Priyanka, Saumya and Rudra would hide their faces and/or scream, while the other three would roll their eyes. It was amidst all this that Annika realized Shivaay had moved suspiciously close to her in the already small couch. He had one arm casually placed over the arm of Annika's seat, and their knees were touching as he sat cross-legged while hers dangled off the sofa.
It was during a particularly intense, scary scene that Shivaay leaned in close to Annika's ear, making her have goosebumps all over.
"If you're scared, you can come closer to me for support. Annika felt rather than saw the smirk in his face as he whispered that.
Scoffing, she replied,
"I'll have you know that I'm not scared of anything, let alone such 2 Rs horror movies. Isse daravne bhoot toh hamare chawl mein ghumte hain.
Shivaay chuckled, and Annika shivered as he breathed on her neck.
"Are you sure you're not scared of anything?
Annika frowned. She tried to figure out what the baggad billa was thinking, but that was quite impossible. Turning her head towards him, she found that he was extremely close. Their lips were only inches from each other. Trying hard to ignore that fact, she replied decisively.
"Quite sure.
Shivaay shrugged, and turned towards the tv again. Annika stared at him for a moment. It was sure that something was going on his mind, but what exactly? She turned to watch the movie again with a sigh.
A minute later, she understood just exactly he had been so cunningly planning, when he discreetly put his hand on her thigh under the duvet, and over her dress. Annika gasped at the sudden contact, but thank fully no one seemed to notice, except the culprit himself. Annika tried to pry his hand away but to no avail; he wouldn't budge. She turned to glare at him, but Shivaay just turned to look at her innocently, before sending a flying kiss her away, again. Annika was mortified with all that was happening. They were in a room full of people, and this stupid kanjiaankhonwala was in the mood to romance. It would be a different matter if they were alone, ofcourse...
Shaking her head, Annika mentally scolded herself for such tuchhi luchhi thoughts. She could feel that Shivaay was now making slow movements on her thigh. Slow, torturous movements, left to right, up and down. This was making her sundress ride further up her thigh. Annika felt like squirming under his pleasurable touch, but refrained from doing so with much difficulty. Suddenly, as if becoming impatient, he moved her dress and touched her bare thigh. This time, Annika's gasp was heard by all.
"What's wrong, Annika didi? Are you scared too? Rudra quivering voice called out.
"N-no. I uh, I just, um... She trailed off, not knowing what to say.
"Oh, come on, Annika, Shivaay said in a smug voice. "It's okay to admit you're scared. No one's going to judge you.
Annika rolled her eyes and prayed to the Gods for everlasting patience to deal with this man. While his hand on her thigh was creating havoc on her senses, his behaviour made her want to stab him repeatedly. His hand continued with the administrations on her leg, moving dangerously upwards, and she could do nothing to stop him. A voice at the back of her mind pointed out that she didn't want to stop him, but she ignored it.
Shivaay on the other hand was enjoying this so immensely, he wouldn't be able to express it. On top of being able to feel her smooth, soft skin, he could clearly make out her flushed face. It made him feel pride that she wasn't pushing him away like she so easily could. This gave him more confidence to explore more of her, to move his hand towards her private part. He heard her sharp intake of breath as his fingers grazed over her womanhood over the thin fabric of her underwear. Then, without warning, he cupped her there. Annika arched her back in surprise and undeniable pleasure. She was clutching Shivaay's forearm tightly, her long finger-nails digging into his skin and surely leaving marks. She was trying hard not to make any noise but it seemed impossible because right now, the way his fingers were tracing her intimate part and making her feel all wet and hot, all she wanted to do was scream out his name. Shivaay sensed this. He too was becoming increasingly aroused to be in a room full of people. But if they both left now, the others would become extremely suspicious and they probably wouldn't let him and Annika be at peace for some time. So reluctantly moving his hand away from her leg, he wrapped his arm around her shoulder and pulled her close. Annika sighed, out of relief and the feeling of loss of his hand, and leaned her head on his shoulder. The continued watching the movie, while secretly praying that it end soon.
After it ended and Om turned the lights back on, Annika scampered away from Shivaay lest anyone see their proximity. Stretching his arms, Om announced that it was quite late and they should go to bed.
"I'll sleep with you and bhaiya, O! Rudra hurriedly exclaimed. The movie had clearly managed to scare him, if not anyone else.
"Why, cry baby? Did you get scared? Saumya asked him, smirking.
"No, ofcourse not. I just wanted to spend some time with my brothers. And who are you to make fun of me? If remember, it was YOU who was hiding her face in my chest when-"
He stopped mid-way as Saumya glared at him, indicating not to finish the sentence. It was too late though as everyone had already understood and now were now smiling knowingly.
It was decided, much to Shivaay's displeasure, that the three brothers would share a room while the three girls would be together. They were all heading towards their respective rooms when Shivaay said he needed to make an urgent call, and stayed behind. When he was sure that everyone was gone, he texted Annika.
Meet me in the hall in five minutes -Shivaay
The blue ticks indicated that Annika had read the message, and Shivaay impatiently waited for her in the dimly lighted living room. Pacing the room, he tried to conjure a plan to whisk Annika away to a bedroom, while making sure that his brothers didn't notice his absence. He was lost in these thoughts when Annika entered.
"What is it, Billuji? Why did you ask me to meet me here?
Shivaay, instead of replying, walked up to her and snaked his arms around her petite waist.
"Why do you think? He asked with a wicked smirk.
Annika gulped. Although she too wanted to spend time with Shivaay, she was skeptical about what would ensue. She was extremely new to intimacy and the thought itself made her shiver. Shivaay noticed her ashen face and cupped her cheek with one hand, while the other remained on her waist.
"I have a lot to tell you, Annika. He spoke in a soft, soothing voice. "Can we spend the night together, even if we just talk? His voice was pleading, and it made Annika's heart melt. Nodding, she leaned in to place a chaste peck on his cheek, taking him by surprise. But she suddenly seemed to remember something and scrunched her nose.
"But Shivaay, what will the others think if they don't find us in their rooms?
Shivaay sighed. That was indeed a concern. He knew that his brothers and even sisters were aware of what he and Annika shared, but letting them know upfront that things had escalated was a different thing entirely. Besides, he wanted to take his own time with informing everyone about Annika and him. They needed to sort things out first themselves. After that, it would be up to Annika when she wanted to disclose their new relationship.
"How about you tell Samuya and Prinku that you're going out for a stroll, in the indoor garden we have, and I do the same with OmRu? I'm sure they'll eventually fall asleep waiting for us.
Shivaay mentally patted himself for the genius idea, but Annika seemed to think otherwise.
"What if they want to accompany me? Or, what if they come out looking for me? Do you know how dangerous it will be if they come out into the garden alone at ni "
She was stopped midway by Shivaay's lips. Pulling away, he stared at her admirably. She was so caring about his family, it made him feel proud, for some reason. Proud, maybe, of the fact that he had fallen in love with such a pure-hearted person.
"Firstly, I'm pretty sure that they will not want to accompany you since they are terrified by the movie we just watched. And secondly if they do come looking for you, nothing will happen since I had informed my security that we'll be staying here over night. They are keeping guard outside.
Annika raised her eyebrows at that.
"Of course, she scoffed. "I should have known. After all, how can the Great Shivaay Singh Oberoi ever stay anywhere without security?
Shivaay pouted his bow-shaped lips in mock hurt.
"I called them for the safety of YOU guys, not my own.
Annika seemed to realize that he was hurt by her words. Cupping his face in her hands, she said in a pacifying voice-
"I know, I know. I didn't mean it that way. I was just...
"No. Shivaay interrupted. "Now you've already said it and you have to do something to earn my forgiveness.
"What? Annika asked in confusion.
"Give me a kiss. He said, face breaking into a naughty grin. Annika smacked his arm as she realized he had been joking.
"You cheapda! She yelled, face turning red. Shivaay yanked her closer by her waist.
"Trust me, darling, He said in a husky voice, "I'll be asking for a lot many cheapda things than this tonight.
Annika hid her face in his chest in embarrassment, while Shivaay laughed at her innocent, cute antics.
"Now go along quickly and tell the girls that you're going out, okay? Annika nodded, and sprinted off towards their room. Shivaay followed suit. As he entered the bedroom that he was sharing with OmRu, he saw that Rudra had already dozed off. He was sprawled across the bed, lying on his stomach, with his mouth agape. Shivaay chortled at the image, and thanked the stars that his ever-inquisitive brother had fallen asleep. Om was busy looking at something on his phone. As Shivaay approached the couch he was sitting on, he hurriedly kept his phone aside as if hiding something. Shivaay raised his eyebrows in confusion, but decided not to say anything.
"I'll be going out for a stroll to the indoor gardens. To get some fresh air. Don't wait up, okay? Saying that he was about to leave, when Om called from behind.
"Annika is a great girl Shivaay, make sure you don't mess things up with her.
Shivaay turned around, surprised. Although Om's voice was firm and serious, he was smiling. Shivaay's face too broke into a grin.
"Will do, brother. Shivaay winked, and walked out to meet the love of his life.
Annika on the other hand tiptoed into the bedroom, hoping hard that both Saumya and Priyanka had fallen asleep. But to no avail. Both of them sat on the bed cross-legged, gossiping and giggling.
"...and then he took out revolver and I don't think I'd ever found him hotter- areh Annika! Where did you go? I was just telling Saumya about...
"I'd just gone to get some water! Annika replied hastily, voice a bit squeaky. Clearing her throat, she continued. "Actually guys, I just felt like getting some fresh air. So I was thinking of going to the garden for a stroll. The indoor garden, where ever that is. She muttered. "You two continue, I'll join you in a bit... She trailed off, praying that they don't ask too many questions, and planning to stab Shivaay for putting her in this situation.
"Fresh air so late at night?! But wh-" Prinku started, but shut up when Saumya nudged her with her elbow, and gave a slight glare. Prinku furrowed her brows in confusion, before she too got the hint. Annika stood there fumbling with her hands as the two girls turned towards her with knowing smirks.
"Sure Annika, Priyanka tried to hide her smile. "Take your time with your stroll'. We won't wait up for you, as we understand you might be a little late. She and Saumya then burst into giggles, making Annika redden in the face and dash out of the room. She reached the living room again, all the while muttering about what the stupid tadibaaz was putting her through, when she bumped into his muscular chest.
"Woah, slow down, tiger. Shivaay gave a cheeky grin. "I think you should save the energy for later...
"Shut up you moron! Annika smacked his arm, hard. "Ek toh I have to be so embarrassed in front of everyone because of you, and upar se you're teasing me!
Shivaay held both of her hands in his, and placed a soft kiss on her knuckles.
"Well, people do say that love brings many perils. He winked. Annika blushed as she heard the word. Love.
"Whoever said I loved you? She asked him out of the blue, making him freeze. She bit the inside of her cheek to stop from smiling.
"Y-you don't? He asked. She could see his Adam's apple bobbing due to the deep gulp he took.
Annika shrugged. She didn't answer, and Shivaay waited for a few moments, before-
"Tell me, dammit! He practically screamed, grabbing her by shoulders and shaking her. His eyes were wide round, and demeanour frantic. The confident, speculative Shivaay Singh Oberoi had been reduced to a hysterical man, all because of one woman.
"Leave me, Shivaay! Annika yelled back at him, shrugging of his hands. "Why are so...so caveman-ish? Is this how you ask a girl if she loves you? You're practically threatening me, you baggad billa!
"Don't call me that! Shivaay retaliated, yanking her closer yet again by the waist. Their faces were inches apart and all the yelling had left them breathless. Shivaay hovered above Annika's lips, and his warm breath fanned her face. Annika's eyes fluttered close at the closeness, and Shivaay at the very same moment captured her lips with his in a hot, hungry kiss. It was a kiss full on passion, full of fire, with clashing of tongues and scraping of teeth. Annika didn't realize when he had picked her up and she had wrapped her legs around his waist, her hands messing up his perfectly set hair while his roamed all over her back and sides. Finally, when they broke apart for air, Shivaay only managed to whisper in a hoarse voice-
"Let's take this to the bedroom.
