Chapter 60B
He tried to hide his smile and she even in her anger wouldn't miss his smile. And that instant, she knew he was teasing her and pushing her to say what she had wanted to say anyways, but not anymore. If he would do all this drama and make her upset on this day, she would be no less. Now he would definitely say it first and she knew exactly what would make him do the same. She looked at him with angry look while she could tell he was just waiting to hear 3 words from her mouth. But now she would make sure he would confess his feelings first. After all now she was Ishita Raman Bhalla and no less than her husband. She knew what would make him confess and it was way better than his drama.
He looked at her pretending to be unaware of everything, but he didn't know she could easily tell what was on his mind. He was putting up a sad face, but dancing in his head as she pulled him closer to herself. He looked at her eyes that only reflected their love in them and was being impatient to hear the 3 words from her. But he started to doubt what would happen when she turned away from him...
"Why should I tell you?! You don't even care about my feelings! I came here and you didn't ask me anything, just started blaming me for everything." She crossed her arms looking away from him and started to walk away when he pulled her back. In the process, he bumped into the bed and luckily caught his balance and managed to sit on the bed while she couldn't catch her balance and landed on his lap with his arms protectively encircling her...
She had her eyes closed as she was scared for a moment, but then opened her eyes as he whispered to her and let her know she was safe. But as soon as she opened his eyes, she continued her drama and looked at him angrily while he made puppy eyes trying to get her to confess. She gave him an upset look and looked away while he gently moved away a strand of hair that blocked his view of her. She gave him a glare and he pulled her closer to him while she tried to move away his strong arms. She stopped as he whispered...
"You should tell me because...I need to know...and I know you need to know the same from me..."
They looked into each other's eyes. No more drama, no more questions, no more excuses...only their feelings. He didn't know how she would react and let his arms loose making her stand up. He got up behind her and peered over as she had her back to him trying to see what she was doing. Suddenly she turned around with a smirk on her face as he wondered what she was up to when she walked up to him...
She leaned in closer to him wrapping her arms around him and he knew what was coming up now...
His hands went around her waist instinctively...
They came closer perfectly as their lips touched as they closed their eyes...
They stayed together for many moments until she grabbed one of his hands...
By intertwining their fingers tightly, he knew she had asked for their first real kiss...
In moments, their soft gentle peck had turned into a kiss full of passion and their new found feelings...
It was controlled passion, desire, and love...
Their first kiss of love...
No one took control over the other as they both were full of equal want for the other...
He savoured the sweet taste of her mouth while she was lost in the bitter coffee taste of his...
They continued to suck on each other's warm lips as they felt each other's breath until...
He opened his eyes looking at her lost in their kiss...
She had told him about her love, she already confessed.
Now words weren't even needed, but he still needed to tell her...
She always took the first step, he would tell her about his love first this time...
He closed his eyes again cherishing the last moments of their kiss before they parted...
As they slowly moved apart with their hands held tightly together...
Her eyes and ears waited hopefully as she looked up at him...
And he didn't wait another moment before finally saying it to her...
"I love you Ishita..."
She expected this, yet her heart skipped a beat as she heard his true genuine words. She couldn't wait any longer and wanted him to have the same happiness she just got from him. She wanted him to know about her love and immediately after his confession...
"I love you Raman..."
She threw her arms around him while he held onto her like never before. He lifted her slightly off the ground while she closed her eyes burying herself in the crook of his neck. Their smiles were the widest they have ever been. They just wished for that moment to stop and be captured in their memories forever...
They were in love...
A contract marriage, a compromise with no expectations of anything...
Where care, trust, respect, friendship, desire crept in...
And turned into love...
They didn't even realize when they fell in love...so easily and helplessly...
Unexpected, never thought of love...
Yet pure and true love...
Love that was stronger than any love in their lives...
Love that was equally strong from both sides...
A relationship that was namesake...
Was now a relationship that lived up to its name in every sense...
They were two hurt broken people...
That found all they ever wanted in each other...
It was everything that they never thought was in their destiny...
But it was there and they had accepted that today though their hearts knew way back and now...
It was as if two lost souls had found their homes at last in each other's arms...
