Avni lowered her head, kissing Neela on the cheek, "Thank you for throwing this party for me, I will see you soon"
Neela waved at Avni.

Avni stood outside, the air was cold, biting at her skin, pulling her long black jacket around her she shivered and began to walk to her house, she was never a fan of cars, always way more hassle than they were worth. Her feet burned from the dancing all night, her eyes had been set on a certain Neil Khanna all night, the sizzling attraction between the two at its brim tonight.

She finally arrived home and walked upstairs to change, pulling the dark red straps from her shoulders she remembered how Neil's hands had caressed her body as they swayed with the music, she closed her eyes and hummed, as if swaying with him again.

She dropped her dress to the floor and grabbed a towel.
The door slightly open, allowing space to see. A man grunted and breathed heavily while peering in at Avni changing.
As if sensing a gaze upon her, she turned but saw nothing.
She laughed at herself and made her way to the bathroom

Avni was tired, finally climbing into bed she led down and pulled the covers over herself
The man watched from the doorway as she fell asleep, moving closer to her he picked up a few strands of her hair and sniffed, closing his eyes in appreciation
Avni turned on her side and sighed

The man backed away, going to her draws he opened one and took out her diary, placing it in his pocket he looked back at Avni and smiled again.

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

Avni woke up the next morning, she wondered when she would next be able to see Neil. It was confusing how one night with a stranger could make her feel so much, he was an enigma, his comments about the guests had been the first thing to bring her in, seemingly he could read every guest which proved to be both interesting and comical

Then the way his brown chocolate orbs shone in the light, glistening even more so as he laughed, like the perfect mix, his eyes matching the soft brown of the lanterns hung up, then the way his hand held hers, his arm wrapped tightly around her waist, because when you were with Neil, you felt like you were the only one in his world

She shivered at the memories and got out of bed, scolding herself, she had a job to get to and fantasizing about her one night stranger would do her no good.
She went to get ready when she noticed her draw was open, had she opened it last night? She didnt recall doing so.

Where was her diary gone? Rummaging through the draw she threw her head back and growled, it had a list of all the meetings she had to go to, all the callbacks and all the auditions, now what would she do?

Rushing to get ready, she decided to get her auditions written down again, this could easily be fixed.
It wadnt long after when she was on her way to her manager to get to her audition

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

Neil stood up, digging his hands into his pockets and pacing around the room, he tapped his foot on the floor "DD, dont be ovbious when you call Neela okay"
DD laughed and picked up his phone

"Hi Neela aunty, I was just wondering if I could get Avni's number again, I seem to have lost it"
Neela smiled, she always was fond of her nephew DD, smart and charming, hopefully he would find a girl some day.

Neela gave DD the phone number and made him promise to come and visit soon. Neil went to grab the notepad with Avni's number on it when DD held it back and shook his head
"Avni is my cousin, like a sister to me, hurt her and I will kill you"

Neil rolled his eyes "Yes mother, now give me the number"
Neil typed it into his phone
"Does it seem to desperate if I message her now"?
DD laughed "You got me to call my aunt and get her number, you already look desperate, just roll with it"

Neil huffed "Maybe I just shouldnt message"
"Your loss my friend"
Neil rested his head in his hands, he wasnt sure what to do.

Part 2-
Avni breathed a sigh of relief, she had finally gotten her dates all written down, she pressed her car keys and watched her car lock, strange, she swore she had locked it earlier.
Avni pressed it again and it unlocked, pulling the door open she gasped at the teddy bear sat on her seat

Avni looked around, it didnt seem as if her car had been broken into so how did they get this in? Maybe she had just forgot to lock it before she left, she picked up the bear, holding it to tightly it let out a "I love you Avni" and she screamed dropping it to the floor, what kind of sick joke was this

Her breaths shaky she sat in the car and turned the key to start the engine, the radio came on and she jumped, the engine spluttered and died down, closing her eyes she inhaled again and drove away
Driving over the bear it made a muffled sound as the last wheel went over it

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

Neil's POV-

"I am crazy, she is honestly going to think I am a stalker for even having her number, what do I even say, oh hi Avni, this is Neil, hope you remember me yeah I just cant get you out of my mind and if I havent already made you want to call the police and get a restraining order against me, would you like to go for dinner" I had been practising lines for what felt like hours

I dont know why I was so caught up in her, she was one woman and it was one night, why was I so nervous? It was simple, call and if she picked up then charm her and if she didnt then call back again another day.
I threw my head back in frustration, this was just embarassing!

I picked up my phone, counted to three and pressed the call button.

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

"Hello" Avni spoke, her heart was racing, could this be the person that left her the bear?
"Hi Avni" a husky voice spoke
Avni sat up straight, how had Neil got her number?
"Hi Neil, how are you"

"Im good, I got your number from DD, I hope you dont mind"
Of course she didnt mind, she couldnt get Neil out of her mind after that night
"No, I dont mind, was there any reason you called"

Neil laughed "I wish I had something smart to say to that but really I just called to ask if you would like to go to dinner "
Avni covered the microphone on the phone and let out a joyous squeal
Clearing her throat she brought the phone back to her ear
"Yeah that sounds good, when are you free"

"Tonight" Neil spoke eagerly, not missing a beat.
Avni giggled "Sure, where shall I meet you"
"Ill pick you up, whats your address"
Avni gave her address and hung up, she had to get ready quickly

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

Avni rested her hand on the door handle, taking a deep breath she pulled the door open.
Neil smiled, "You look beautiful"
Avni smiled back "You dont look to bad yourself"
Neil straightened his tie "Oh its not like I spent over half an hour picking out this outfit to be told I dont look to bad"

Avni raised her brow after closing that door "All that effort for me, im flattered"
"I didnt mean" Neil paused, chuckling he looked away
Avni stepped closer "you look handsome"
Neil turned to face her "oh uh so do you"
Avni shook her head, walking past him she opened his car door and sat inside

Eventually arriving at the restaurant, Neil pulled out Avni's chair and helped her take her coat off, his hands lingering on her arms as he slid the sleeves down, she thanked him and sat down.
They ordered and Neil leaned back in his chair

"How many people do you think have come here but now want to go home"
Avni looked around, "hmm 5"
Neil smirked "I counted 4"
"Man in the corner on his phone, woman at the bar alone, couple over there playing with their food and the bartender"
"Very attentive arent you" Neil commented
Avni nodded

"That man over there is looking at you" Neil commented sipping his wine
Avni turned slightly "No, hes looking at you"
Neil pursed his lips "Yeah, hes looking at me, im quite the catch" he tugged at his collar and winked at the man, making Avni lean over in a fit of giggles
"I dont know about that"

Neil dug into his meal "Seems you cant appreciate the finer things in life"
"And you're one of those finer things" Avni asked
"Of course I am"

The duo spent the whole evening talking, a waiter walked over "Sir, Madam, im sorry to do this, but its closing time, im gonna have to ask you to leave"
They looked around at the now empty room and stood up
Neil and Avni reached for the bill
"Half it" Avni said

Neil shook his head "I invited you, ill pay"
"No, half"
Neil stood up taller "I didnt want to do this"
Avni furrowed her brows
Neil flicked her nose and grabbed the bill, slipping out his wallet he placed the money down and a very generous tip and grabbed Avni's hand

"Okay next time I pay"
"Oh so there will be a next time, enjoy my company that much" Neil asked smugly as they got into his car
Avni chose to ignore his comment and turned away

Arriving at her home, Neil got out and pulled her car door open
Walking her to her door, he looked into her eyes, then his eyes fell to her lips and he leaned in
Avni raised her hand pushing it against his lips "no kisses on first dates"
Walking inside she waved and closed the door

Neil leaned against the door and sighed, Avni really was something else

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

Avni walked into her room, undressing quickly she changed and got into bed, she was out like a light

The man looked down at her "You smell like him, and I hate that"
Snapping a picture of her he smiled at it and kissed her forehead
"Dream of me" he whispered


I am super sorry this was late, but I was unwell and have been busy at university!
Anyway, I hope you're all good
