OHHHH...Thank u soooo much!!! Am very glad that u enjoyed our scenes!!!Originally posted by: desperate001
HEY GUYS I'M NEW TO THIS FORUM AND JUST LIKE YOU PEOPLE CRAZY FOR AN.LET ME TELL YOU ALL OF YOU ARE WONDERFUL WRITERS ESPECIALLY MICH AND HONEY ARE GREAT GUYS
THEIR SCENES ARE JUST MINDBLOWING.
The story starts after the lift scene....where Abhi puts his arm around her to prevent the ward boy from getting too close!!
The lift opens and everyone walks out. Abhimanyu is staring into Nikki's eyes and both are lost.
"Abhi" she sighs and Abhimanyu snaps out of the eye lock. As he steps back, his phone rings. Without another look at Nikki he takes the call and walks out of the elevator. Nikki smiles to herself thinking *so he is not as immune as he pretends to be. Thank God*. Happily she gets out of the elevator and walks into the locker room.
Ridhimma catches Nikki smiling to herself and asks ," So, your Dr. Modi was in a good mood today?"
Nikki snaps out of her thoughts all flustered at Abhi's mention. She looks at Ridzi asking her, "Tum!Tum kab aayi?"
Ridzi grins widely , "OOO....so Dr. Modi really was in a good mood" and starts laughing.
Nikki blushes and confides in Ridzi why she thinks that Abhi is pretending to be unaffected by her when really thats not the case. Ridzi tells her how happy she is for her and the fact that everything is getting better.
Ridzi, "I am so glad to hear that Nikki. Now maybe Dr. Modi will stop acting like Hitler around the hospital."
At the same time Nikki's pager buzzes. *Dr. Abhimanyu Modi*.
Nikki, "I have to go Ridzi. Thank you so much for listening to me." The girls hug and Ridzi says, "What are friends for Nikki."
Abhimanyu meanwhile is sitting in his cabin brooding about the fact how he could not resist helping Nikki when the ward boy was making her uncomfortable. He mumbles "This girl has a penchant for getting into trouble. She acts like she can take care of herself but I have never once seen her do that."
He starts pacing his office, remembering the riot incident and how he had risked his life to save the stupid girl from her folly. Suddenly his thoughts shift to her anger at him after that and her closeness while cleaning his wound and the smell of her perfume, the soft flowery smell which drove him up the wall with need.
"Dr. Nikita, you do know how to knock.... right?" Abhi growls at her.
"I did knock Abh...Dr. Modi." Nikki smiles back.
"Really! Next time it would not harm you to knock a little louder. You do eat don't you?"slapping his hand on his forehead he says, "Of course you do. Especially when there is a board meeting and people are waiting on you for your reports."
Nikki shocked at his outburst simply stares at him. "If you are done staring Dr. Nikita, can I please review your reports ." He asks extending his hand.
Gathering herself,Nikki hands him the reports. As their hands touch, he flinches as if burnt. Nikki is stunned and angry at such a reaction but lowers her eyes to hide her anger. He reviews the reports, finds them satisfactory and tells her that there is a review meeting at 9:00 am the next day with Patil where he expects her to give a presentation on their progresss.
"Tomorrow?......I worked late nights to get these reports to you but you never mentioned a presentation. Now you want a presentation by tomorrow?" Nikki asks incensed.
"Dr. Nikita, as far as I know, hard work has never killed anyone. Yeah, I do expect a presentation by tomorrow. " states Abhi . "That said, you may leave now and start on your presentation."
"What does he think of himself, that ....that..rude, arrogant, pig headed,stupid Man. He is ordering me about as if I am his slave." muttering under her breath Nikki walks towards the library, when she walks into someone. She looks up to find Armaan, who is peering curiously at her and asks "Who are you cursing Nikki?"
"That Modi......who does he thinks he is," blurts out Nikki.
"Did he bother you again? By the way Nikki you look sick......you don't sleep or what." he says.
"No, No....am fine. Yeah just a little sleep deprived but after my presentation tomorrow I will catch some sleep. Ah, Dr.. Modi....he ..err...nothing actually Armaan. Look I have to go work on my presentation. Bye catch you later," and Nikki rushes to the library.
"Funny girl!! She abuses him but still is adamant on working with that idiot. I don't understand her." thinks Armaan.
The next day, in the conference room, Nikki gives a successful update to Patil, who looks a little lecherously at her but behaves cordially enough.
"Bahut achha presentation tha Dr. Nikita. Minister Sahib will be happy to see your progress. Hard workers like you will help this project be successful." compliments Patil coming close to her.
"Thank you Mr. Patil." Nikita smiles createing distance between them.
"Aap ne bahut achi aur detailed reports di hain Dr. Nikita. Bahut mehnat ki hogi aapne." he goes on.
"jee" she nods.
"Dr. Nikita ji..aap toh bilkul waise hi hain...woh kya kehte hain angrezi main....beauty with brains." says Patil.
"Thank you." Nikki can't help smiling at his attempt to a compliment.
" You look a little tired though." he continues conversationally edging a little closer to her.
"Haan who kuch din se busy thi na kaam mein." replies Nikki and busies herself collecting her papers.
"Itni busy bhi mat hoye Dr. Nikita ji ki aap ki khoobsurati par asar pade. Rest karne dijiyay Dr. Modi. Nikita ji ab main chalta hoon....presentation badhiya tha aur aap bhi bahut acchi lag rahi thi " says Patil.
Nikki avoids replying, brushes him off with a smile and goes back to arranging the papers. Patil leaves. Nikki looks up at Abhimanyu and smiles.
"The presentation went well I think. I am glad that Patil will give a good report to Minister Sahib." says Nikki.
Abhimanyu, lost in thought does not answer. Nikki waits for his reply but when none comes forth, she starts to walk past him, when suddenly his hand shoots out and grabs her wrist. Nikki turns questioningly at him.
"Oh you flirt through the presentation and you think it went well?" he says.
Nikki is incensed by his words. "Dr. Modi , please leave my hand."she states coldly. Anger flashes in his eyes and he pulls her closer. "Dr. Nikita ji, woh kya kehte hain ..beauty with brains" he mimics Patil.
"Abhimanyu please, you know how he is. What are you getting mad at me for?" reasons Nikki
"You were encouraging him Nikita and smiling at him." he says angrily.
"I was doing nothing of that sort. Please chodo mujhe" She squirms in his grip.
He tightens his hold and brings her closer. "I don't like this Nikita. You are supposed to behave professionally. You should let your work speak for itself. But I guess you like to play games with people."
" Abhimanyu Modi you are hurting me. Leave me." demands Nikita .
Abhimanyu leaves her and turns away. She throws the files on the table and turns Abhi to face her, shocking him by her action.
"Dr. Modi, you have been treating me like a slave since a week now. Since it was about work ,I never complained. Today, you have gone too far. Patil complimented me on my hard work but I guess you chose not to hear that." Nikki spits out angrily.
"Oh and I am professional. You on the other hand, are taking out your anger on me at every given opportunity. Why do you care how he behaves with me? Anyways, I can handle him. I don't need you to look after me," she continues her tirade.
They both stare at each other coldly with anger flashing in their eyes and then Nikki's eyes soften and she softly says, "I didn't play any games with you Abhimanyu. Why won't you believe me?" Abhimanyu turns his face away shaking his head. Nikki goes closer to him softly touching his face to make him look at her. He leans into her touch and sighs softly. "I am so sorry Abhi." says Nikki.
He steps closer to her, her perfume invading his senses, making him aware of how much she still attracted him. His hand automatically rises to caress her face. Nikki's eyes close and she loses herself to his touch. A soft "I missed you" escapes her lips when suddenly he jerks his hand away.
Nikki's eyes fly open to see anger flashing in his dark ones. "Ah, Dr. Nikita Malhotra, you use your charms again. I am not a fool you know," saying this he pushes her away from himself.
"If I had charm Dr. Modi, you would not be running away from me." counters Nikita.
"Well I am immune to it Dr. Nikita. You may now have to find a new conquest." He states sarcastically.
Nikki comes close to him, looking into his eyes and says with conviction "Oh Really, but I know for sure you are not immune to me.You just hide behind your anger. I told you how sorry I was but you accused me of seducing you. Every time we come close we get lost in each other. Why can't you forgive me?"
"Forgive you for what Nikki?" he shouts. "Forgive you for ripping my heart apart? Forgive you for not standing up for me in front of your friends? Forgive you for watching Armaan insult me in silence? Forgive you for being ashamed of me?" he says with pain etched on his face and reflected in his words.
Nikki is shocked at the outburst. "I am not ashamed of you Abhi"
"Dr. Abhimanyu Modi, I am your boss. Why do I even bother?" He turns and leaves the conference room.
Nikki sinks down helplessly on the chair. Her mind churning with Abhimanyu's accusations, at his rage at her for not being able to stand up for him. Smiling sadly she thinks *I learnt my lesson Abhi. I was a little unsure of my feelings but now I know that I can't ever stay away from you. I know I have hurt you but now no more. I want to be happy with you and want to see you smile. So sadu Dr. Modi, I will make you my happy Abhi again. Uske liye jo bhi karna padega woh main karoongi.* She rubs her hands together with a huge grin on her face and walks out of the conference room.
She walks straight to Sister Lovely's desk at the reception and sweetly asks her about Dr. Modi's schedule.
"Kyun Dr. Nikita ji, aapko unka schedule kyun chahiye." Lovely asks
"Who kya hai na sister Lovely, Dr. Modi ne muhje kaha hai to follow him. So I need the details of his schedule. You know how angry he gets if we don't obey his orders." Nikki lies sweetly.
" Haanji, par kitne handsome lagte hain na who ji gusse main" says Lovely
"Bilkul ji. Toh will you give me the details every day? I know I can depend on you Sister Lovely." says the sugary Nikki.
"Haanji, bilkul ji Dr. Nikita....I will tell you every detail. Waise Dr. Modi jaise rough and tough doctor maine nahi dekhe hai ji" says Lovely conspiringly.
" Haan maine bhi. Waise rough ka toh pata nahi par tough bahut hain." says Nikki sarcastically.
"O jee...kya dress pehnte hain ji....aur ji unki shirts ...haiyee" continues Lovely daydreaming.
"Shirts... What shirts?" asks Abhi walking in on their conversation.
Both Nikki and Sister Lovely get startled and Nikki starts giggling.
"Oh Dr.Modi, Sister Lovely was just remarking on how nice you look." says Nikki cheekily
"Oh Ji nice nahi ji, handsome ji." says Lovely blushing
Abhi glares at Nikki . "I think Dr. Nikita you should concentrate on your work."
"Sadu." says Nikki under her breath.
"What did you say?" asks Abhi
"Aye Aye Sir." salutes Nikki smartly.
Irritated Abhi turns toward Sister lovely and smiles at her. "You also look very nice Lovely ji. Achha mujhe aap files dengi please."
"oh bilkul ji Abhi ji....oh aap par blue color saab se acha lagta hai ji.....oh mera matlab hai iss green wali mein bhi aap handsome lagte hain par blue mein thoda zyada ji." says Lovely handing him the files while Nikki snickers at him.
Irritated by this he walks away with the files.
"Aap badi achi hain Lovely ji. Dr. Modi aap se bahut khush ho gaye aaj. Achha yeh bataiye ki aaj Dr. Modi ka kaam kab khatam hoga?" asks Nikki casually.
"5:00 pm." replies Lovely.
"Thank you ji." satisfied, Nikki walks away.
Later in the day, Nikki is taking a break when her pager buzzes *Dr. Abhimanyu Modi*. She rolls her eyes heavenwards and mutters under her breath "This sadu will never let me be in peace. Mere bina uska dil hi nahi lagta hai" and smiles.
She walks into his office with a cup of coffee in her hand and sweetly tells him, "You do miss me a lot."
Abhi looks at her stonily asking, "Do you?"
Nikki blushes at his directness and shrugs her shoulders. Abhi gets up and starts advancing towards her. "I asked you a question."
"Um....you did..a..a..what?" says Nikki backing away.
"Do you ?" he asks walking closer.
"Do I what?" Nikki's voice rising with a mixture of excitement and fear as she backs into the wall.
"Miss me?" he asks softly.
Nikki looks up at him with eyes wide and sees the hunger in his eyes. She gulps hard and closes her eyes to regain herself. When she opens them she catches him studying her intently.
"See Nikki, you are playing a very dangerous game here. You will lose." he says
"What do I have to lose Abhi? I am already lost" she says earnestly
Hearing that he closes his eyes and takes a deep breath urging himself for some control and ends up thinking *God she smells good* "Stop it" he says to himself but it comes out loudly and startles Nikki who spills her coffee on him.
"What the....?" he says looking at his shirt which now has a big coffee stain right at the center.
"Oh am so sorry....woh... I got startled when you yelled in my ear." Says Nikki
"I yelled?" he yells.
"You are still yelling Abhimanyu." Nikki replies calmly.
"How nice of you to remind me Dr. Nikita. What have you done? " he looks at her helplessly.
"Uh am sorry but you startled me....Don't you have a change of clothes ?" she asks
"Dr. NIKi...ta...you are clumsy ...har kaam bigad deti ho." He grumbles and gets a shirt out of his drawer.
"Oh tum apne desk mein kapde rakhte ho Abhimanyu?" she asks jokingly.
"I have to go out in the even.....why I am explaining to u?" he replies exasperated.
"Oh blue shirt Dr. Modi ji. Ismein toh aap bahut hi handsome lagte ho ji." mimics Nikki when she looks at the color of the shirt.
Irritated at her teasing he makes a face "Excuse me? Do you mind?...I need to change."
"Oh No ....I don't.... please go on Dr. Modi....change..don't mind me." she brushes him off cheekily.
"What?...Nikita it's not funny....please go out." he fumes.
"Prude Dr. Modi?" teases Nikki.
"Nikki...ta....please." he bites the words out.
"Please kya Dr. Modi?" Nikki holds her ground.
"Go out Nikita" he orders.
"Nikki...Nikki bolo pehle" she says
"Kya....dekho main mazaak ke mood mein nahi hoon....please go Nikita." He points to the door.
"Thik hai jab pyar se bologe tabhi jaongi." Says Nikki sweetly.
He rolls his eyes heavenwards and softly mutters *one day I swear I will kill this girl*.....gives a plastic smile and says "Nikki. ....Please go....thank u."
Nikki gives him a huge grin , " All you had to do was ask sweetly Abhi." Winks and walks out.
Nikki walks back to Sister Lovely's desk to ask where Abhi is headed for the evening.
"Hello ji , Lovely ji, ummm ....Dr. Modi sent me to ask about the status of his meeting in the evening, " lies Nikki.
"O ji, Dr. Nikita ji, unki meeting hai 6:30 pm for the new Sanjeevani project ji," replies Lovely.
"Thank you ji Lovely ji. Tussi bade hi ache ho ji," says Nikki and happily walks away.
At 5:00 pm when Abhimanyu walks into the parking lot he sees Nikki pacing near his car. He stops short and can't help looking at her. A small private smile plays on his lips. Nikki is wringing her hands,* the very hands which touched his face so tenderly today in the conference room when she turned his face to listen to her,how they caressed his face when she was tending to him after the riot incident. Oh they were soft hands too!*
Nikki stops pacing and in impatience chews her bottom lip. Abhimanyu can't help but notice it *those lips....Will you stop Abhimanyu....its Nikki!! The girl who did not think once before she trampled on your heart!!!Who will gladly do it again given the chance. Get a grip on yourself and stop mooning over her. This girl will never learn and never stop her games. She and that best friend of hers, Armaan Malik, the two devil kids.*He shakes his head to clear his thoughts and walks towards his car.
He stops directly in front of Nikki and asks her sarcastically, " Dr. Nikita , how may I be of service to you now?"
"Oh hi Abh...Dr. Modi...how do you know I need your help?" asking looks up innocently at him.
"Dr. Nikita, did you not know, I am a genius!! "he retorts.
"Oh , are you? What's your IQ? Einstein's IQ was 175.Is yours that high too? Did you get tested when you were a kid? What gave you away? I mean what exactly did you do that your parents thought of getting it checked? "inquires Nikki acting all interested.
"Dr. Nikki..ta...will you stop? You are standing in front of my car, so obviously you have some work with me. Do tell." He says exasperated.
"Oh that is how you figured'" she slaps her forehead. "Main bhi na kya soch baithi. Waise I have no doubt that you must be very intelligent. IQ bhi achha hi...."
"Nikita will you stop!!! Get to the point. I do not have time for all this. I have to attend a meeting ." cuts in Abhimanyu.
"Meeting......what meeting....you attend an awful lot of meetings. I guess it comes with your job.....but don't you get bored. Tumhe koi personal time bhi milta hai.....you are always rushing from one mee...'"Nikki slyly continues
"Nikita, it's a New sanjeevani project mee...why are we discussing my meeting...what do you want from me?" asks an irritated Abhimanyu.
"New Sanjeevani.....oh!! do I need to come too.....I can cancel my date and come with you...ummm.....do you have the repo......." says Nikki changing tracks.
"Look Dr. Nikita...I don't need you there.....Date? What date?" asks a stunned Abhi
"Oh nothing....see I don't want to take more of your time.....I just wanted to request you to please drop me a little outside Sanjeevani so I can catch an auto. It's so hot today.....so .....ummm.....maybe you are in a hurry......sorry about that.....I'll just walk." Saying this Nikki slowly starts to walk.
"Wait....ahmm.....yea I can drop you. No problem." says Abhimanyu.
"What date?" asks Abhimanyu, once they are inside the car.
"Kya?" asks Nikki innocently.
"Date?" he bites out.
"oh...today's date.....umm it's 4th no sorry 5th octo...." replies Nikki
Abhi takes a deep breath to stop himself from losing it completely at this girl who had riled him with the news of her date. He sweetly asks her "The date Dr. Nikita, you were ready to cancel .....to come to the meeting with me."
"Ohhh that!....it's nothing really. .....just a friendly get together you know.....ah Dr. Modi......you can drop me here.I'll manage from here." Nikki urges him to stop.
Quickly getting out of the car and thanking him through the window, she walks off to catch an auto leaving a stunned Abhi in her wake.
Abhimanyu drives to the meeting venue with random thoughts racing in his mind. *Date!!....She is going on a date? My Nikki....ahem no...Dr.Nikita on a date? With whom.....oh I knew that girl she didn't ever care for me.....see Abhimanyu.....you on the other hand can't get her out of your mind........ Date!!...I can't believe it!.....who would want to go out with a...a.......childish, quick tempered, rude girl....though she is pretty...no....beautiful....she fits into my arms perfectly..... Abhimanyu Modi.......you really need help!......she doesn't care about you....don't you get it?. Concentrate on this meeting ok......Oh I want to throttle her....'I will kill her one day'....concentrate on work Abhimanyu.* groaning he walks into the meeting which he smilingly attends with all the patience he can muster.
All through the meeting he keeps messaging Nikita with what all he wants her to do regarding the New sanjeevani project.
Message 1: you busy? Plz updt report for ...
Message2: sorry 2 bother but cud u plz...
Message3: u really seem busy but this is imp....
Message20: Where the hell r u? Is the date so imp? did u update...
As soon as the meeting gets over, Abhimanyu looks at his phone to see if he received any reply from Nikki and finds one message waiting for him... " not 2 well...will do it tomm".
"Right! She is well enough to go on a date but not well enough for work! This girl...she needs to get her priorities straight. I should always come first.....I mean work should always come first not these stupid dates." fumes Abhimanyu.
"Ting Tong",the bell chirps in Nikki's house at 8:00 pm. She opens the door to find Abhimanyu on her doorstep.
"You look perfectly fine to me" says Abhimanyu staring at her.
"Abhi..Dr. Modi ? What are you doing here?" replies a shocked Nikki
"You didn't reply to my messages." says Abhi walking in.
"I did." she says.
"One reply? I messaged you around five to seven times and you send me one line? So was your date fun?" he asks incensed.
"Not five to seven Abhi but twenty times." says Nikki trying to hide her amused grin.
"Whatever. So, how was your date? He counters
"What date?" she asks innocently
"The date you were so busy with that you didn't have time to reply to my messages." He pouts
"Abhi...I know you think the reports are important but I have been working like a slave for the past week. I need rest too." She reasons.
"Then you should have rested. You went out on a date instead. That doesn't show you were tired. You were ignoring me." he fights with her.
"I was not ignoring YOU." Nikki jabs a finger at his chest and he takes a few steps back.
"I am tired, but your continuous messages ...did not...let me....take a nap." continues Nikki backing him to the wall.
"Look at me Abhi" she points at her face "do I not look tired to you?"
"You look beautiful" he whispers.
At Nikki's surprised expression he quickly replies, "What I was messaging you was important."
"I read your messages Abhi and I didn't think they were important. It can be taken care of tomorrow." says Nikki curtly.
"Dr. Nikita, I am the boss so I get to decide what is important and what is not. Your priorities are messed up." says Abhi jabbing a finger at her forcing her to move back.
"What are you so tired from? All you did was have fun at your date. I was stuck in a meeting while you were out ignoring me. I should be your first priority not some stupid date." continues Abhi slowly backing Nikki to the wall.
"You should be my first priority?" counters Nikki
"Who did you go out with?" asks Abhi ignoring Nikki's question.
"Why do you care?" retorts Nikki
"I don't care." He replies trapping her by placing his hands on either side of her on the wall, "how was your date? Where did you go?"
"Why do you want to know?" she looks up at him, all trace of humor gone, instead awareness of him flooding her thoughts.
"I don't want to know." He replies, all trace of anger gone from his voice. "Did you like him? What did you two talk about?" he asks softly
"Does it matter?" she breathes
"Not to me" his eyes reflecting his awareness and need for her. "Who is he?" very softly.
"Abhi...I..." Nikki stutters
"Why Nikki?" he asks pain evident on his face and in his words.
"Abhi....the date was with Muskaan, she wanted to watch a movie but I was tired so I didn't go." explains a worried Nikita, her hand rising of its own accord to cup his cheek.
He leans into her touch and closes his eyes, a soft "I miss you"escaping him. He opens his eyes to see Nikki crying. He bends down to kiss her tears.
"Don't cry Nikki" pain evident in his voice "All I give you is tears. That's why I want to stay away from you." he sighs softly.
Nikki clutches the front of his shirt nodding vigorously, "No..... please...don't stay away from me....Abhi ...please."
He holds her hands which are gripping his shirt tightly and says softly, "I can't be second in your life Nikki. Ever. Your friends don't approve of me ..So, it's best I stay away."
"No..I will tell them about us.....I promise Abhi....please don't say that....I don't want to be away from you." Implores Nikki.
Anger flashes in his eyes and a shocked Nikki releases him. "I will tell my friends about you. So, they still don't know. You never told them about us? Oh Dr. Nikita...I am the biggest fool on this earth. Am so sorry I bothered you. Please get your rest and goodnight." With this he turns and leaves, leaving a heartbroken and sobbing Nikki.
The whole night Nikki spends thinking about all the beautiful moments she had shared with Abhi and how because of her unsure feelings she had destroyed her chance of happiness with him. *I love him so much but have hurt him beyond measure....why does he not understand that my friends are my family.....but they didn't treat him right either....they insulted him and all I did was look on'....but Abhi I don't know what to do....please someone help me.*
The next day Nikki walks into the hospital morosely when Sister Lovely stops her at the reception.
"Oh Dr. Nikitaji...aaj aapko Dr. Modi ke schedule ki zaroorat nahi padegi ji?" she says
"Nahi sister Lovely woh.......kyun?" asks a confused Nikki
"Oh aapko pata nahi...ki Dr. Modi 2 days ke liye out of town gaye hain?"says a smiling Lovely
"Kya?" asks a shocked Nikki
"Jee....woh New Sanjeevani ki investor meet hai na Jaipur mein toh wahan gaye hain woh." Replies Lovely.
Thanking her Nikita walks to the locker room, hardly able to stop her tears and the pain in her heart. She walks towards her locker without noticing Armaan and breaks down.
"Nikki!!!...what is wrong with you?? Why are you crying? Doosron ko rulane wali aaj khud ro rahi hai?kahin uss Dr. Moody ne fir kuch ulta toh nahi bola tujhe ?" asks Armaan.
"Nahi....woh chala gaya'" says a sobbing Nikki
"Who are we talking about here Nikki?" asks Armaan
"Noone....I can't tell you....you will get angry at me....woh bhi gussa karta hai....tum bhi karoge.....mujhe toh koi samajhta hi nahi hai......main bahut pyaar karti hun usse.....par main kya karoon'" starts off Nikki incoherently getting hyper by the second.
"Whooooaaaa....will you calm down.....ok sit n tell me....I promise I won't get angry.....Ok." says Armaan sitting her down on the bench.
"No you will break our friendship....you will never talk to me again." says Nikki, struggling to get out of Armaan's grasp.
"I promise I won't do anything like that ok....please tell Me." pleads Armaan
"Promise." Asks Nikki
"Yes dear Promise." sighs Armaan.
"Ok....." and she proceeds to tell Armaan how she fell in love with Abhimanyu , how Armaan's behavior and her not being able to stand up for him had caused Abhimanyu to shut her out of his life and how she was at the end of her tether to solve the problem. A shocked Armaan cannot believe what he is hearing.
"So Riddhima was right." He says softly "It's because of me you are in this mess."
He turns to Nikki and says, "You are talking about this Dr. Moody.....I mean Modi right......apna khadoos wala.....really yaar Nikki who tumhe itna pasand hai?" says an unbelieving Armaan.
"Armaan.." says Nikki warningly.
"Thik hai Thik hai.....for you I will try and behave in front of him but are you sure about that ....that......khadoos's feelings? says Armaan pacifyingly.
"yes I know how he feels. A...Armaan.....you will do that for me?" asks Nikki shyly
"Anything for you my friend.....but please stop crying now......kissi ne dekha na toh tumhari "rough and tough" image kharab ho jayegi." says Armaan in jest. "Ab dekh main kya karta hoon uss Modi ka" he says under his breath.
"Kya?" asks Nikki
"Arre ab tu tension mat le.....n duty kar......2 days tak who hitler nahi hai toh chill bhi karenge.......achha sun umm....... Friday ko hum saab bahar jaa rahe hain ......so tujhe bhi aana hai....mana maat karna.....bahut time se we all haven't gone out together so we are going!!" says Armaan.
"Par.....Ok thik hai......I will come.....you are not mad na Armaan." She asks cautiously.
"Tujhse.......kabhi nahi." He hugs her and gives her a peck on the forehead."Ok duty time.......you take care ," and walks out.
Her mind a little at peace that Armaan understood her Nikki goes about her duties. Meanwhile, Armaan gathers the gang without including Nikki and tells them how their stupidity messed up Hitler (read Dr. Modi) and sweet Nikki's life.
"Nikki and Dr. Modi?" says Anjali
"Who uss machhar ko pasand karti hai?" Muskaan
" haan toh use red mark nahi chahiye na." Atul
"Thank god Armaan tum maan gayye....maine toh pehle hi bola tha." Riddhima
"What!! you knew?" everyone turns on her......Armaan tries to stop all of them talking at once and answers their questions.
"Ab kya kareinge?" all of them ask. Armaan explains what he has in mind and all agree to give it a try.
The day Abhimanyu gets back Armaan, Ridhimma, Atul, Anjali and Muskaan walk into his office together.
"Oh, to what do I owe this pleasure?" asks Abhimanyu sarcastically.
"We are sorry Dr. Modi." All of them together.
"Doctors what did you all do now?" he asks with a tired sigh
"Insulted you." Replies Armaan
"Dr. Malik what is the meaning of this ......if you guys are tired of working hard and have come up with a ploy to...."starts Abhi but Armaan stops him midway.
"Dr. Modi.....I am sorry about how I behaved with you at Dr. Keerti's wedding. I did not know that both of you loved each other and I assumed that you were using Nikita....so as a friend and her family I jumped in.....Nikki on the other hand did not jump to your defense as she was afraid that she would lose me." starts Armaan.
Abhimanyu is shocked at the turn of the events and raises his hand to stop Armaan from speaking further. "What is going on? Oh so Dr. Nikita sent you to do all this drama.....see it is not something I want to hear about.......you may all leave." and turns his back.
Armaan turns him towards himself and looks him straight in the eye. "Abhimanyu, you are mad at me......punish me....not a girl who can't live without you and whose smile depends on yours......and all of us here represent her family.....so please forgive us." He says.
Both the men stare at each other.....Abhi's gaze gauging the truth of his words and Armaan's reflecting the same truth.
"Fine" says Abhi.
All of them erupt into cheers and start hugging each other when Abhimanyu says sharply, "Interns".
Arre yaar kya interns....tu hamara jeeja hai ." says Armaan hugging him.
"What?" says Abhimanyu
"Umm.....I hope you haven't come to your senses and changed your mind?" teases Armaan. All of them burst out laughing and turn to leave. Armaan hesitates at the door.
"Dr. Malik....you have more to say?" Abhi
"Dr. Modi...woh .....yeah actually....if you don't mind."says Armaan.
Abhi gestures him to continue. " We don't want you to tell Nikki about this....you see..." and he tells her the plan. Abhimanyu can't help laughing and heartily agrees to it.
During lunch Nikki walks into the cafeteria and catches the happy mood of the gang. They are all deciding where they want to go tomorrow. Nikki gives a watery smile and joins them, her mind a million miles away on the special someone.
"Nikki.....Nikki'" says Muskaan. "Who are you thinking about?"
"Uh...n....nothing Muski...what were you sayin?" she comes out of her reverie.
"We are talking about clothes to wear....we are thinking Black for the guys and white for the girls." says Anjie.
" m hmm'" nods Nikki
"Dr. Modi aap" says Armaan
Nikki looks up shocked but there is no one around. The whole gang bursts into laughter.
"What " asks Nikki
"Tu toh bahut darti hai uss Modi say" Atul.
"Nahi woh.....ok ab mujhe jana hai....kal miloongi tumhe....bye guys.." says Nikki...looking daggers at Armaan and coloring.
Rushing out of the cafeteria she bangs into someone. "Oh sorry ..I am so sorr.." she looks up into the pair of dark eyes which have been haunting her day and night for the past 2 days.
"Nikki" he replies holding her to prevent her from falling.
She gives him a tentative smile. "Dr. Nikita, please watch your step." He straightens her and walks away.
Sad and tired Nikki finishes her duties and goes home. The next day Abhi calls Nikki in his cabin to tell her that there is a special dinner with Sanjeevani investors that they need to attend. It's formal so she can go home early to change and he will pick her up at 7:30. Nikki tells the gang how she cannot join them as she has to go with that "sadu" for the project dinner. All of them make the right noises and tell her how much they will miss her but not to worry she can join them later.
At 7:30 Abhi comes to pick up Nikki and her beauty steals his breath away. Nikki quietly sits in the car and none of them talk except the necessary things. They reach a sea facing hotel and Nikki quietly follows Abhi.
In the lift, it's just the two of them.
"You don't have to appear so unhappy." he states
Nikki lifts sad eyes towards him, "Sorry"
"What happened? My company bothers you so much?" he riles her.
"No" she says.
"Then what?" he asks
"Nothing" she turns her back to him
He comes up close behind her and Nikki closes her eyes at his approach. He softly speaks in her ear without touching her "You look beautiful today, but I miss your smile sweetheart." And the lift opens on their floor. Abhi walks out leaving a stunned Nikki who somehow manages to gather herself and slowly follow him. They walk in a room which is pitch dark. Scared, Nikki grabs Abhi's hand.
"A..Abhi...please don't leave me.....why is it so dark here....you said it was a dinner. Yahan toh koi nahi hai." She speaks fearfully hanging desperately to his hand.
"Welcome.."the lights come on and she sees the whole gang there. A shocked Nikki looks from Abhi to them and back at Abhi again.
He drags her inside. "Inn saab ko toh tum jaanti ho na Nikki....your friends...my friends too....actually our friends!!" he says
"A....Armaan...Abhi...our friends....what do you mean?" she asks looking at Abhi.
He takes her hands in his and says, "Today you have to answer my questions before you get any answer to yours."
" tumhari aankhein bata rahi hain jo tadap main mehsoos kar raha hoon who tumse bhi guzar rahi hai....lekin aaj main tum se sun na chahta hoon."
"Kya sunna chahte ho" says Nikki with tears in her eyes.
"Ki tum mere liye kya sochti ho, kya mehsoos karti ho." He says repeating the words he said on the day of the unfortunate pool incident.
"Ki jab main tumhare paas nahi hota toh kya tumhe meri yaad aati hai?"
"Tum kabhi mere dil ya dimag se door hi nahi hote Abhi.....har waqt , har pal, sirf tumhari hi yaad aati hai." She replies.
"jab main tumhari paas nahi hota toh kya tumhari aankhen mujhe dhoondti hain" he continues
"Har waqt" she says
"kya mujhe dekh kar tumhe khushi hoti hai?"
"Tum hi meri khushi ho Abhi" she states tears falling.
"Kya meri tarah tumhare dil mein bhi dard hota hai?" he continues
"Bahut dukhta hai Abhi." She whispers, her eyes reliving the pain.
"I love you Dr. Nikita....Do you love me?" he asks
"Yes, yes I love you very much Abhi.....I love you more than myself....more than life itself." she says and hugs him.
Everyone breaks into cheers and Armaan comes upto Nikki and lifts her face, "khush?" he asks.
"Thank you Armaan ....you are the best friend anyone could ask for" she hugs him.
"Ok Dude, all the best with this one....I can't help you more with her!!" he turns to hug Abhi and then softly in his ear "You take care of her or I will kill you Modi."
Nikki is thrilled about getting her love back and all of them have a good time with each other.
Later, at Nikki's doorstep, "thank you Abhi.....am sorry for what all happened." She says
"I am sorry too Nikki for hurting you." He says.
"Oh you are?" she asks
"Mhmmm....and I can show you exactly how much?" he says bending closer
"Abhiii....noooo" she says
"yessss" Abhi
"nooooooo" Nikki
"yesss" Abhi
"yessssss"Nikki

Hey all!! With the lack of AN scenes we are having I decided to write one to make myself happy!! Thistakes place in what we all refer to now as "the good old days." Thanks a ton to IVY for the idea. We decided to rehash the old scenes and make them as we would like to see them!!
This scene is after the pool incident, after Nikki decides to stay back and confront Abhi. Am ignoring the fact that SuSu ever came in sanjeevani and continuing the story without her!!The story starts after the lift scene'where Abhi puts his arm around her to prevent the ward boy from getting too close!!
The lift opens and everyone walks out. Abhimanyu is staring into Nikki's eyes and both are lost.
"Abhi" sighs Nikki and Abhimanyu snaps out of the eye lock. He steps back and his phone rings. Without looking at Nikki he takes the call and walks out of the elevator. Nikki smiles to herself and thinks *so he is not as immune as he pretends to be. Thank God*. Happily she gets out of the elevator and walks into the locker room.
Ridhimma seeing Nikki smiling to herself asks " So, your Dr. Modi was in a good mood today?"
Nikki snaps out of her thoughts and gets flustered at Abhi's mention. She looks at Ridzi and asks her, "Tum!Tum kab aayi?"
Ridzi grinning widely states, "OOO'so Dr. Modi really was in a good mood" and starts laughing.
Nikki blushes and decides to confide in Ridzi. She tells him what happened and how she thinks that Abhi is pretending to be unaffected by her when really thats not the case. Ridzi tells her how happy she is for her and the fact that everything is getting better.
Ridzi, "I am so glad to hear that Nikki. Now maybe Dr. Modi will stop acting like Hitler around the hospital."
At the same time Nikki's pager buzzes. *Dr. Abhimanyu Modi*.
Nikki, "I have to go Ridzi. Thank you so much for listening to me." The girls hug and Ridzi says, "What are friends for Nikki."
Abhimanyu meanwhile is sitting in his cabin and brooding about the fact that he could not resist helping Nikki when the ward boy was making her uncomfortable. He mumbles to himself "This girl has a penchant for getting into trouble. She acts like she can take care of herself but I have never once seen her do that."
He gets up and starts pacing his office, remembering the riot incident and how he had to risk his life to save the stupid girl from her folly. Suddenly his thoughts shift to how she got angry at him after that and was so close to him while cleaning his wound that he could smell her perfume, the soft flowery smell which drove him up the wall with need. He shakes his head and rebukes himself, "Abhimanyu, are you crazy? Get a grip on yourself. She is the same girl who likes to play games with your feelings." He remembers the pool incident and his anger comes flooding back. He suddenly smells Nikki's perfume and turns around to see her standing behind him with a slight smile on her face.
"Dr. Nikita, you do know how to knock right?" Abhi growls at her.
"I did knock Abh'Dr. Modi." Nikki smiles back.
"Really! Next time it would not harm you to knock a little louder. You do eat don't you?" he slaps his hand on his forehead and says, "Of course you do. Especially when there is a board meeting and people are waiting on you for your reports."
Nikki is shocked at his outburst and just stares at him. "If you are done staring Dr. Nikita, can I please review the reports you made." He extends his hand for it.
Nikki gathers herself and hands him the reports. Her hand touches his and he flinches away from her as if burnt. Nikki is stunned and angry at this but lowers her eyes to hide her expression. He reviews the reports, finds them satisfactory and tells her that tomorrow at 9 am they have a review meeting with Patil in the conference room and he expects her to give a presentation on their progress.
"Tomorrow'I have worked late nights to get these reports to you but you never mentioned a presentation. Now you want me to make a presentation by tomorrow?" Nikki asks incensed.
"Dr. Nikita, as far as I know, hard work has never killed anyone. Yeah. I do expect a presentation by tomorrow. " Abhi replies. "That said, you may leave now and start on your presentation."
Mad at him for his rude behavior Nikki takes the reports and leaves.
"What does he think of himself, that rude, arrogant, stupid Man. He is ordering me about as if I am his slave and not human." Nikki mutters to herself while she is walking towards the library, when she bangs into someone. She looks to see that it's Armaan and he peers curiously at her. "Who are you cursing Nikki?"
"That Modi......who does he thinks he is," blurts out Nikki.
"Did he bother you again? By the way Nikki you look sickly'.you don't sleep or what." asks Armaan.
"No, No'am fine. Yeah just a little sleep deprived but after my presentation tomorrow I will take off and catch some sleep. Ah, Dr.. Modi'he ..err'nothing actually Armaan. See I have to go n start working on my presentation. Bye catch you later," saying this Nikki rushes to the library.
"Funny girl!! She abuses him but still is adamant on working with that idiot. I don't understand her." thinks Armaan.
The next day, in the conference room, Nikki gives a successful update to Patil, who looks a little lecherously at her but behaves cordially enough.
"Bahut achha presentation tha Dr. Nikita. Minister Sahib will be happy on your progress. Hard workers like you will help this project be successful." compliments Patil coming close to her.
"Thank you Mr. Patil." Nikita says smilingly and creates a little distance between them.
"Aap ne bahut achi aur detailed reports di hain Dr. Nikita. Bahut mehnat ki hogi aapne." Says Patil
"jee" nods Nikki
"Dr. Nikita ji..aap toh bilkul waise hi hain'woh kya kehte hain angrezi main'beauty with brains." says Patil.
"Thank you." Nikki gives a slight smile at his compliment.
" You look a little tired though." he goes on conversationally coming a little closer to her.
"Haan who kuch din se busy thi na kaam mein. "replies Nikki and starts collecting her papers.
"Itni busy bhi mat hoye Dr. Nikita ji ki aap ki khoobsurati par asar pade. Rest karne dijiyay Dr. Modi. Nikita ji ab main chalta hoon'.presentation badhiya tha aur aap bhi bahut acchi lag rahi thi " says Patil.
Nikki avoids replying, gives him a smile and goes back to arranging the papers. Patil leaves. Nikki looks up at Abhimanyu and smiles.
"The presentation went well. I am glad that Patil will give a good report to Minister Sahib." says Nikki.
Abhimanyu is lost in deep thought and does not answer her. Nikki waits for him to reply but when he doesn't she starts walking past him when suddenly his hand shoots out and he catches her wrist. Nikki turns around and looks questioningly at him.
"Oh so you flirt through the presentation and you think it went well." says Abhi.
Nikki is angered at his words and stonily looks up at him. "Dr. Modi , please leave my hand."she states sternly. Anger flashes in his eyes and he pulls her close to him. "Dr. Nikita ji, who kya kehte hain ..beauty with brains" he mimics Patil.
"Abhimanyu please, you know how he is. What are you getting mad at me for?" replies Nikki
"You were encouraging him Nikita and smiling at him." he says angrily.
"I was not doing anything of that sort. Please chodo mujhe" She squirms in his grip.
He tightens his hold on her and brings her closer. "I don't like this Nikita. You are supposed to behave professionally. You should let your work speak for itself. But I guess you like to play games with people."
" Abhimanyu Modi ypu are hurting me. Leave me." states Nikita firmly.
Abhimanyu leaves her and turns away from her. She throws he files on the table and turns Abhi to face her. He is shocked by it.
"Dr. Modi, you are treating me like a slave since a week now. It was all about work so I never complained. Today you have gone too far. Patil complimented me on my hard work but I guess you chose not to hear that." Nikki spits out angrily.
"Oh and I am professional. You on the other hand are taking out your anger on me at every given opportunity. Why do you care how he behaves with me? Anyways, I can handle situations and answer him back. I don't need you to look after me," she continues angrily.
They both stare at each other with anger flashing in their eyes and then Nikki's eyes soften and she says softly, "I didn't play any games with you Abhimanyu. Why won't you believe me?" Abhimanyu turns his face away from her shaking his head. Nikki goes closer to him and softly touches his face turning him to face her. He leans into her touch and sighs softly. "I am so sorry Abhi." says Nikki.
He steps closer to her, her perfume invading his senses, making him aware of how much she still attracted him. His hand automatically rises to caress her face. Nikki closes her eyes n loses herself in his touch. A soft "I missed you" escapes her lips when suddenly he jerks his hand away.
Nikki opens her eyes and sees anger flash in his dark eyes. "Ah, Dr. Nikita Malhotra, you use your charms again. I am not a fool you know," saying this he pushes her away from himself.
"If I had charm Dr. Modi, you would not be running away from me." replies Nikita.
"Well I am immune to them Dr. Nikita. You may now have to find a new conquest." He states sarcastically.
Nikki comes close to him, looks up into his eyes and says "Oh Really, but I know for sure you are not immune to me. You are just hiding behind your anger. I said I am sorry but you accused me of seducing you. Every time we come close to each other we get lost in each other. Why can't you forgive me?"
"Forgive you for what Nikki?" he shouts. "Forgive you for ripping my heart apart? Forgive you for not standing up for me in front of your friends? Forgive you for watching Armaan insult me and you watching silently? Forgive you for being ashamed of me?" he says with pain in his words and sketched on his face.
Nikki is shocked at the outburst. "I am not ashamed of you Abhi"
"Dr. Abhimanyu Modi, I am your boss. Why do I even bother?" He turns and leaves the conference room.
Nikki sinks down on the chair her head in her hands.
