Here it is...
Nachiket and Ragini going somewhere in the SUV. She looked out of the window small raindrops appearing magically from the inky sky.
"Look it's raining!!"she held out her right hand a bit to touch the droplets which snaked down the glass windows. She lowered down the pane to let the fast
moving drops inside,tilting her face to feel each one fall on her cheeks. He stared at her mesmerised.
And he loved it. She made him do things he hadn't done before,she made him realise why life was so beautiful. The sheer smell of rain could do something which not even thousands of diamonds wouldn't be able to do.
How he loved to see this sight of hers; the rain always brought a sincere smile on her beautiful face. It glowed as a kid in a candy store.
Nachiket stopped the car at a corner and this took Ragini by surprise. She gave him a questionable look. He was not that fond of the rain, especially not getting drenched.
''Gaadi kyun rok diya, Nachiket?'' He didn't answer her question, instead stepped out of the car and walked over to her side. Opened the door and reached out
his hand to hold her hand...
And he walked her out in the rain, leaving her surprised. But as soon as they stepped fully into the rain she looked above and opened her arms, letting the rain drench her withins. The moment seemed, to
liberate her from all the self-imposed cuffs she had been ungenerously strangling upon herself. All the pain, confusion and fears seemed to melt as she embraced herself with her own arms, letting all the
pain of the past squeeze into it.
Nachiket leaned against the car and just watched her getting drenched in the rain. A small smile appeared on his lips watching her enjoying the rain drops from heaven falling on her petite body.
He could stare at her for hours. She felt so at peace and nothing was more important to him than her happiness. Ragini turned around and saw him staring at her with those romantic eyes that made her blush like a teenage girl. She became conscious yet she loved that look on his face.
Step by step she walked up to him and stood in front of him... Nachiket who till now had just been spellboundedly staring at his beautiful wife, moved closer to her and hugged her tightly. And this time she held onto him, with all the might she had in her arms. She held him closer and wept until her eyes had no more tears. Caressing her hair continuously,
he wrapped his arms around her.
Neither of them said a word. It was not needed; the rain itself spoke and Ragini's tears spoke a thousand words. Ragini stayed for a few more minutes in his
embrace. She warmed up by the heat of his body and the soothing feeling of him caressing her hair developed all new inner feelings.
Nachiket noticed the change in her body language. Slowly he pulled her out of his embrace and looked deeply into her eyes. He noticed she breathed heavily... He turned her around and took one step forward while she took one step back until she hit the car and couldn't move...
Nachiket approached nearer to her face steadily, making her too vulnerable to stand in her own feet. She closed her eyes to feel thhe moment. He held her waist and pulled her closer. Ragini was still unaware about Nachiket's reaction, but a sudden light pain
made her senses come back to reality. She felt a little bite on her earlobe. Nachiket lost himself totally when Ragini reacted with a moan as he bit her earlobe.
His hand on her waist grabbed her more forcefully now. He planted a kiss behind her ear, lingered his lips on the skin of her warm body and trailed down to her shoulder blade...
Ragini moaned even louder and held on to him for support; she was shivering with a new ecstatic feeling making her go weak in ghe knees...
The rain got more fierce and Ragini was shiverring. He covered her face, neck with wet kisses. Ragini, not being able to resist his energy, turned to leave. Nachiket suddenly grabbed her hand and thrust
her back in his embrace.
Ragini; finally tightened her grip around his back, making sure that there won't be any gap left between them. Ragini felt his hands caressing her waist and back.
The touch of his fingers on her bare back and waist gave her an immense pleasure. Nachiket knew how to please her and was very well aware of the effect he had on her.
Ragini turned her head slightly and let a small whisper ''Nachiket...'' She gave him a small kiss on his cheek which took him by complete surprise. This
new desire of Ragini was even unknown to him.
She continued with the small wet kisses on his face and stopped at the corner of his mouth...
"Ragini..? Tumhe kuch kehna hai?" his voice
implored.
His voice trickled off, shoulders rotating in a shrug as he looked her staring him. In the beautiful rain, she studied the line of his jaw, eyes moving onto his lips. They were pursed, almost as if he were annoyed at something , and instinctively Ragini reached out to place her hand onto his. It felt like a second, but slowly his hand turned over and his fingers interlaced with hers, his eyes liifting to reach hers.
His eyes searched hers hungrily, and Ragini understood instantly. He was, in his own way, seeking the reassurance he had given her; that there is still a lot of joy to come in their lives.
She gave him a genuine smile and looking him into the eyes, hoping that he would understand that she will always be there for him.
He looked back and that one smile of hers meant the world to him. Nachiket moved his face a bit closer but
stopped just an inch away from her lips. Ragini had already closed her eyes sensing he would approach her for a kiss but opened her eyes when she didn't feel his lips on hers.
''Rukh kyun gaye Nachiket...?'' And she closed the distance between them. She sllightly brushed her soft pink lips against his to make this moment a sweet
memory...
And he stood there, spellbound.. It felt like the first few days of their marriage all over again.. both of them had the same awkwardness around each other
and the same uneasiness of pushing each other's limits.. everything came back to him and brought a huge smile on his face.. he captured her lips in his and smiled as he kissed her..
Ragini could feel his grin in the kiss and locked her arms around his neck.. happily relaxing against the car and nodding to his numerous declarations of love..
The End.
