"Meri Sherni" he said as kissed her lips. "Ouch, Viraat" Manvi cried out as she felt his stubble touch her cheeks.
"How many times did I tell you to shave?" she looked at him with anger.
Manvi has been telling Virat to shave for the past one week, but Virat just avoided her, and kept on growing his beard.
"Come on honey, don't get annoyed by a little stubble, remember our love is deeper than that" he smirked at her and kissed her cheek.
She just pushed him away as she felt his sharp facial hair scratch her gentle soft skin.
"Nope, I could care less about our love at this moment, I just want that beard gone" she said firmly putting her feet down.
"Stop being so stubborn Manvi, I know you can't be mad at this" he said sliding his arms around her waist, and pulling her close to him.
He rubbed his cheek along hers, and kissed her ears with pleasure. She hissed as he felt his facial hair touch her once again, "leave me Chep," she moaned while pushing him away.
"I am not shaving" Virat spoke firmly, as he wasn't going to be convinced.
"Fine, but until you shave that beard, you can't have of this" she said while smacking her lips into his. He immediately got into the kiss, and kissed her back passionately, while Manvi grinned evilly.
She merely pushed him back, as Virat looked at her in shock. "What was that for?" he asked annoyed as she just spoiled the moment.
"You can't kiss me or even touch me or even see me until I see that hideous beard off your face" she glared at him hoping he would listen to her.
"Are you trying to pleasure blackmail me?" he asked with an overreacting face.
"Well you won't be convinced by me acting sweet, so I guess torturing you is the only way" she said smirking evilly. Virat just looked at her with daggers, as she blew him a fly kiss walking out of the room.

"Manviii..Maanviii" he sighed her name as he didn't see her for 10 straight hours. He jerked up as he felt a pillow hit his face, "SHUT UP Virat" came a voice from the opposite side.
"This has been the billionth time you said Manvi's name, if you miss her so much just CALL HER" Viren said annoyed, as he placed his palms on his ears.
"She doesn't want to speak to me, she doesn't like the beard," he said pouting while Viren rolled his eyes at his pathetic brother.
"THEN SHAVE IT OFF FOR GOOD SAKE! IT LOOKS LIKE CRAP!" he shouted at Virat trying to pull some sense into his head.
Viren tried to calm himself and speak lightly to Virat, since he was going through a "so called sensitive" time. "Look, is a beard worth loosing the love of your life?" he asked Virat, while Virat nodded a no. "Then what's there to think about, just go and talk to her".
Virat immediately got out of his depression, "you're right, Manvi is more than this beard" he said while running to Manvi.
"Stupid guy, doesn't even know that the beard doesn't look good" Viren chuckled to himself.
********************************
He opened the door to her apartment and saw all the lights off. Quietly, he tip-e-toed down the living room, and entered her bedroom to see her sleeping peacefully. Her beautiful eyes shut from the world, as the moon light stroke her face.
"Manvi" he whispered smiling at her, as he settled himself next to her.
"I love you Virat" she spoke in her sleep, as she placed her head on his chest.
Virat smiled at her innocence and knew how much Manvi truly loved him. Eventually he drifted off to sleep, with her in his arms.
******************************
Manvi woke up feeling herself in a warm embrace of a person, and when she opened her face, she saw the sparkling face of Virat. Then she looked at his face, and to her surprise, the beard was gone.
Virat woke up feeling fingers brush on his cheeks, and opened his eyes to see Manvi looking at him with intense eyes.
"Good morning" he said, as he kissed her forehead.
"So somebody finally came to their senses and shaved of the beard"
"Well first I realized I can't live without seeing you, I mean one minute with you next to me is like hell, imagine how 10 hours passed by'" he spoke with a serious face, as he knew how bad it felt staying away from her.
"Well I'm also sorry for making you shave it off, I mean I thought about it and realized that I love you no matter what" she smiled at him, as he kissed her nose.
He captured her lips, as she kissed him back immediately. She loved the fact that there was no more stubble on his face, allowing her to kiss him back harder.
