He slowly and silently starts dropping kisses on her shoulder, and then moves up to her neck, she gives him an easy access by tilting her head to the opposite direction and he happily kisses her on the side of her neck. With this new act of his, Ishitha looks at him sideways and he kisses her cheek and nibbles her earlobe. she feels way too shy to even meet him and so breaks the hug and goes to the window in the cottage and opens it, as the wind is blowing outside, few raindrops start falling on her face and she enjoys them, by closing her eyes. Raman smiles seeing her enjoying the rain and walks upto Ishitha who was standing near the window and on reaching near her, he moves her hair on to her left shoulder, and caresses her back with the back of his fingers and she shivers a little to his warm touch. He bends down and sucks the raindrop on her right shoulder, leaving a kiss on the shoulder and rests his chin the shoulder and starts caressing both her hands and hugs her from behind. He breaks the hug and makes her to face him as they have an eye-lock. He tucks the loose hairs that have fallen on her face behind her ear which were flying due to the winds blowing outside, she manages to breaks the trance by looking down, with a shy smile playing on her lips and blush on her cheeks. He leans forward and sucks the raindrop on her forehead, leaving a kiss there, then he moves to both her eyes, then both her cheeks and the the chin. He cups face in his hand, and when was about to kiss her on the lips, she smiles at him and pushes him away and starts running away from him. He keeps chasing her and she keeps dodging him, finally he gets hold off her pallu and pulls her towards him, tshe falls on his chest with a jerk, but suddenly she slips and he, who tried helping from not falling, also falls down along with her. He is on top of her as, there is absolute no chance for Ishitha to escape, they keep looking in each other's eyes. Raman caressing her right hand, moves down pinning her fingers in his and leans forward and kisses her forehead, her eyes, her cheeks and gently kisses her on her lips, they break the kiss soon and keep looking into each others eye, later he rests his head on her chest and they remain in the same positon, enjoying each others warmth and the rain with closed eyes.
He gets up and helps Ishitha in getting up too and when she was about to leave from his hold, he caught hold of her pallu and stops her from going, she turns towards him and looks at him with a questioning look on her face. He just smiles and asks her May I have the pleasure of dancing with you ? She is amused at his gestures. She find his hands extended towards her, to which she obliges by giving her hand into his. He pulls her closer to him and places one hand on his waist and holds the other in his and both look in to each others eyes, maintaining the eye-lock they keep moving their bodies to the rhythm of the sound made by the rains, the sound was equivalent to a romantic lounge music. She matches his steps with both enjoying the close proximity, but their eyes spoke of the passion, desire and love they had for each other. Raman finally twirls her and without wasting a second he lifts her up and starts walking inside the cottage
Once, they have reached in the cottage, Raman requests Ishitha to close and lock the door as she was still in his arms, She requests him to put her down to which he only replies he will put her down soon but he continues to carry her in his arms, but she says nothing, he finally reaches the place where the fire was burning and settles her on the floor comfortably and he lies down on her in such a way that half of his body is resting on her and the remaining body on the floor and they maintain the eye-lock, as he could no longer hold back his passion, he kissed on her lips while his hands kept caressing her hands and slowly pinned her hands down. With the winds blowing outside, the rains and fire doing the needful. Inside the cottage, Raman and Ishitha both had nothing but passion, love and desire for each other which was hidden inside them unknown to each other. Both expressed their love for each other and slept hugging with a content smile on their faces.
