To say Arnav was having fun would be an understatement. Along with the feel of having her so close, he was also amused by the fact that he affected her just as much as she affected him. Yes he was done with the denials and the ignoring of what she meant to him. Tonight being this close to her, he realized not only was he physically attracted to her, but he wanted more from her. Maybe a lifelong commitment?! But there would be a lot of time to think about that later. For now, he wanted to use the situation to his advantage. Of course you do you perv, you are lucky she is enjoying this! His inner voice berated him again. I am not a perv if she enjoys it as much as I do! Yeah well if you aren't a perv then you definitely are crazy cause you are having a conversation with yourself!! Great, now im talking to myself! He smacked himself mentally for being stupid.
Getting back to the task on hand Arnav gave his attention back to Khushi who he noticed was trying very hard to keep a distance between the two. As he saw her trying to move over towards the other end, he gave her hand that he was holding a little squeeze and whispered a soft "no" only loud enough so she could hear it.
Her heart thumped loud as it went into a frenzy. Dhak dhak and acidity once again? No, it was all him. Because of him this was happening to her. How could he affect her like this? And really, did he not care that buaji was right here?! What if she saw? Sending out a silent prayer to her Devi Maiya, Khushi closed her eyes and tried to not think about the man next to her who was driving her emotions crazy! But all in vain, as she felt his foot caress her leg gently. There went her heart again, speeding like a bullet train!
"Please stop" she whispered to him gently, but only got a small chuckle from him instead. That was it, that was her undoing. He wanted to play games? Then she would teach him!
"Goodnight buaji, aap bhi jaa ke so jaaye." She pretended to yawn and act like she was falling asleep.
"Arey hum so jaayenge, pehle tu so jaa." With that buaji pulled up the blanket over khushi's face and sat down on the chair next to Khushi's side of the bed. She gently started patting Khushi's head.
The moment the blanket went over her head, all thoughts of revenge went out the door for Khushi. Making plans of taking revenge on him was another thing, but being face to face with him and doing something was a whole other story. She couldn't believe that this was the same man who had just told her off a little while ago, and now here he was making her feel all these crazy things! And then to top it off, here was buaji sitting less then two feet away from her, god knows what hell would break lose if she found out who was actually in bed with Khushi.
That's when it finally registered in her brain. Oh my god! There is a man in my bed! And that men is Arnav Singh Raizada! How in gods name do I end up in these situations?! She asked herself and got a Well you were the one who asked him to get on your bed, from her inner voice.. As if in a trance, she turned to her left, and felt his warm cheek against hers. Just as she was about to turn back, she saw him lift his face up and stare back at her and was shocked to find a glint of mischief in his eyes instead of the cold rage that she was used to as a small smile played on his lips.
Not noticing the small smile that crept up on her face or the fact that she was clutching his hand tightly Khushi just lost herself in his eyes as she had never witnessed something like that before with him. And that smile, that beautiful smile that made him look even more gorgeous and handsome then he already was, she could never get enough of it.
As if something clicked and everything fell into place the moment their eyes met, Arnav knew that he wanted this girl in his life no matter what. He wanted to see that heartwarming smile on her face at all times.
Letting everything go he slowly turned to his side so he was facing her. Slowly he snaked his other arm over her waist and gently pulled her close. Hearing her take in a short breath he leaned into her neck once again leaving a trail of soft kisses from her neck up to her ear but stopped when he heard a soft moan escape from her lips. His head snapped up and he looked at her just in time to see her open her eyes and look back at him.
The moment shattered as quick as it came when they heard buaji coughing, making them realize where they were and what they were doing. Or what he was doing. Holding her tight, if it was even possible, Arnav tried to tell her to shut up with his eyes as he heard her silently mumble to herself, only catching a few words "buaji, catches us, dead"
Both of them held their breath as they heard buaji get up and only breathed a sigh of relief as they heard her shut off the light, close the door and walk away from the room. Khushi closed her eyes in relief as Arnav sighed and hid his face in the crook of her neck but looked up as he felt Khushi freeze.
Realizing she was about to take the blanket off them he quickly grabbed her arms to stop her and got on top her, knowing she would bolt the moment she got the chance. Trapping her under his body he moved the blanket a little so their faces were uncovered.
It was dark in the room. The only source of light came from the moon that bathed the two lovers in its glory. The sight in front of him took his breath away. She looked beautiful absolutely beautiful in the reflection of the moonlight.
"Going somewhere?" He asked her cheekily as he pressed himself into her more, feeling every curve of her body fit perfectly with his.
"Arnavji WHAT are you doing?!!" She whispered furiously
"What? You are the one that wanted me on the bed Khushi. So here I am, you can do WHATEVER you want" He told her as he emphasized on the "whatever" and then chuckled as he saw her cheeks change color.
"I, you, what, ARNAVJI!" Mortified, she looked at him with wide eyes not understanding what got into him all of a sudden and becoming all too aware of the fact that he was on top of her.
"Ok now that we are going to be stuck with each other for the rest of our lives. Lets do this the right way." He gently murmured to her and brought his face close down to her ears and whispered softly "Happy new year Khushi Kumari Gupta."
"Happy New Year Arnavji." Khushi whispered back softly and then looked him in the eye asking thousands of unnecessary questions but voiced just the important one. "How did this happen?"
"I don't know, but whatever it is, I can't fight it anymore and I don't want you to fight it either. We both know there is something there Khushi. I am tired of being angry at you for no reason. I am tired of getting frustrated when I see you with other men. I am tired of fighting this feeling." Telling her exactly how he felt, he knew he was doing the right thing as he saw the understanding and trust in her eyes.
"I know, me too" She whispered back.
Stumped at her short reply he rolled his eyes and went on "That's all you have to say?! I just poured my heart out and all you say is me too?! Why are you such a buzz kill Khushi?!"
She looked at him confused and asked "What's a buzz kill?"
He just chuckled and buried his face in his favorite place, the crook of her neck. There was a lot to teach her, and boy was he going to have fun! But before that there was something he had to do. You go pervy! His inner voice cheered him on!
He looked up into her eyes once again, he just couldn't get enough of them. "There is something I want to do. There is something I need to finish that I left incomplete before. Do you trust me Khushi?" He asked her with all the sincerity he could muster up and reflected all the trust in the world in his eyes.
Khushi looked in his eyes and felt a wave of emotions hit her as her eyes turned moist. Those eyes that always seemed cold, held no trace of brutality in there. All she saw there now was a promise that she would always be safe and ample amount of trust that told her she would never be hurt again. "With my life Arnavji." She replied back to him softly.
That was all that he needed from her as he looked down at her lips and then back into her eyes again where he saw the need of the same thing that he wanted. Letting her hand go, he cupped her face gently and let his lips linger near her mouth for a bit as his breath caressed her face and intensify their need.
Feeling her clutch his shoulders tightly, he gently pressed his lips against hers, not wanting to scare her. He pecked her once and then once more before he kissed her properly.
Khushi's senses reeled as she gasped, and Arnav deepened his kiss, taking her breath away.
Finally breaking apart and catching a breath, they leaned their head against each other as they reveled in the kiss once again. Once he got his breathing under control he moved his head a back a little and looked at her.
Seeing her dazed he went on looking straight in her eyes "Tomorrow you are going to come over and help me figure out a way to make sure I am your partner for the dance. Ok? We are going to make sure you stay a mile away from NK. Understood?" he nodded as he asked her and smirked when he saw her imitate his nod in a daze.
"Good"
"But do you know how to dance" she asked him in a whisper and realized it was a bad idea as his smirk got bigger.
"How about we make a deal?" he asked her with a twinge of humor in his voice.
"What kind of deal?" she asked him innocently but rolled her eyes mentally. The man always thought of business for everything!
"How about you teach me your type of dancing for this sangeet and wedding," he told her slowly and then brought his face down really close to her as he went on " and then I will teach you my type of dancing very soon."
First getting confused about what he was saying khushi scrunched her eyebrows but the moment she looked into his eyes her breath hitched for the millionth time that night.
All of sudden she started feeling hot and she could bet her face must have turned a deep red as she felt a pool of wetness at the pit of her stomach.
Biting her lip she tried to look away from those eyes that did things to her with just one look. The eyes that made her go weak in the knees. The eyes that made her want to do things to him she could never in her dreams think of doing. The eyes that currently held a feral glint in them as they vouched for what he meant.
Knowing that she understood what "dancing" he was talking about, he moved a strand of her hair and tucked it behind her ear before cupping her face and making her look at him.
"Good, let's seal the deal then" giving her one of his famous smirks he swooped down and took her lips with his own once more but this time in an earth shattering kiss filled with passion, trust, need, lust and most importantly LOVE. A kiss that promised to start the new year, with new beginnings!
