Part Five

Lavanya was shocked to see Arnav at the door, standing like a statue his face devoid of any expressions as she stared at him. Her mouth slightly opened with surprise. She turned around to see whether Khushi had seen him standing there or not. And found her sitting cross legged on the chair, busy on her laptop.

She gulped hard and side stepped to leave from there before its too late. She just don't want to be a Jodi breaker in this situation let them just solve their own problem, she thought and ran away from there.

"La, please ask Mary to come to my cabin immediately, will you?" Khushi said straightening on her seat and then looked up from her laptop only to clash with those familiar brown eyes, which tortured her sanity.

The file she was holding fell onto the floor and Arnav flashed a smile at her leaning onto the opened door of her cabin. The chair almost fell onto the back at the force she stood up from her sitting position.

"Aaa..aaap...yahaaan?"

"Hh..haaan Main..."

Khushi gulped hard and her eyes widened finding him so close to her form. She immediately started walking backwards while he matched her movements by taking a step forward while she took one back.

"Tum hameshaa peeche kyun jaati ho?"

He asked smirking widely while she scrunched her face not really understanding as why he was behaving like, like in the past. She remembered those same words he had asked her before, when he had cornered her at a party.

"Kyunki...aa...aaap hameshaa...aage..aate...hain..."

She stammered meeting his gaze and her back hit the wall, startling her. he raised his arms and placed the same either side of the wall, blocking her from moving away from him. She down casted her eyes, staring onto his shoes while he enjoyed the way she stood rooted to the spot.

"Tum mujhse itna dar kyun rahi ho? Main tumhe kha thodi jaunga.."

She felt herself sweating badly as her forehead adorned with beads of perspiration. She breathed heavily trying to get away from him.

"Tumhe kya laga, tum chup chaap chali jaogi aur sab kuch theekh ho jaayega?"

He asked cupping her face while she looked at him incredulously. He leaned forward and kissed the corner of her lips. She closed her eyes instantly and her hands automatically reached for his shoulders, in anticipation.

His eyes were moist as he met her equally moistened eyes.

"I know I was in a trance until I saw the name carved on the door of your cabin... but I had this feeling that I have finally found you...my Khushi... but then your friend introduced herself as Khushi, and I knew that you were hiding here somewhere, watching me closely. I wanted you to believe the drama I put on in front of you... because I wanted to hear the truth from you, to hear that you still loved me despite my weaknesses..." He choked at those last words, looking at his right leg, which still had the marks of his injury.

Khushi cupped his face as she kissed his eyes, her lips lingering there for few seconds.

"Aapne aise kaise soch liya, ki hum..." Her words died in her throat as Arnav's lips descended on hers. Startling her completely as he grabbed her waist and kissed her with all his love. making up for all those days, that kept him away from her, from his life.. khushi felt their tears mingling with each other as their mouths fused.

"Main bas ye chahta tha ki tum Hameshaa khush raho... and I did not wanted to be a burden on your life... you deserves the best..Always...iske alawa mere dimag mein main kuch nahi tha.."

"Lekin main jaanti thi, mujhe pata hai...Agar aap koshish bhi karo to bhi hum alag nahi ho sakte..."

She said wiping her tears with the back of her hand while he touched her forehead with his.

"Kyunki, Arnav aur Khushi hameshaa saath rahenge.."

Arnav's mind travelled back to that night, which changed their life forever. That terrible night, when they were coming back from Aman's wedding reception their car crashed with a truck and then both were hospitalized for one whole month.

Arnav was very heartbroken when he found out about his ankle. The vein called tendon was been cut twice in the accident and doctors were not sure about him walking in the future. He had looked at Khushi's form; she was lying next to him, unconscious when the doctors shared the news with him.

He decided to keep a distance from her, and leaving her forever was the best option he came up with. He left her without even saying a good bye. They were been engaged for a year then and Arnav's sudden disappearance was something Khushi's family did not appreciate. They wanted her to marry someone else and forget about Arnav and his existence.

Meanwhile Arnav had left for US, leaving behind everything, even his Khushi. She tried to contact him but he ignored her calls every time. But all his plans went in vain, when one day, Khushi travelled all the way to US to meet him. and there were no excuses that he could make to avoid her. so he come up with the unexpected. He acted as if he did not even recognize her. he stated that he lost his memory after the accident, and Aman his secretary helped him to prove the same to Khushi as he placed some fake medical reports in front of her.

Khushi was however not very satisfied with his answers, but she kept mum for their own sake. She had faith in her love, and so in her so-called lover Mr. Raizada. She shifted to US along with her cousin and kept an eye on Arnav and his whereabouts.

She changed her appearance from the girl, who used to wear only salwar kurti's back in India. She started wearing shorts, tees and all those modern dresses, which Khushi would have never dared to wear. Her hard work in studies got her the position of columnist in "Dusk" an evening newspaper of US. She was waiting for the perfect time to strike and finally she got it after 5months of stalking.

She was all prepared to knock him down; she will never let him recognize her. And if he did, he had no voice to prove because as per Khushi he had lost his memory forever.

Everything was going according to her plans, and then one fine day, she got the chance to meet up with Arnav as his housekeeper. Mrs. Bedworth who was his housekeeper helped her with the details and his routines.

"Aapne aise soch bhi kaise liya ki hum aapko aise hi chod denge..." Khushi asked caressing his wet cheeks with her thumb while he beamed onto her fingers, seeking warmth from her. He had missed her terribly and now that she was in front of him, in all her glory.. he just stood there taking in her, as if capturing a picture of her and then saving it inside his mind for never ever deleting.

"Aur tumhe kya laga, tum apna dresses badal dogi, aur main tumhe nahi pehchanoonga?"

He arched his eyebrows at her and she smacked his chest playfully. They smiled looking into each other's eyes.

"Hum dono..."

"Kitne ajeeb hai.."

He completed the sentence for her and then crushed her into his arms. She pressed her face onto his chest, hearing onto his wildly beating heart.. just like hers..

"Waise... I loved your fake surname.." he said moving away those loose tendrils from her face and she winked at him.

"You have changed a lot... all this shorts and tees are driving me crazy... you are looking too sexy..." he mouthed pressing his form more onto hers, while she bunched the fabric of his shirt her lips hovering over his seductively.

"Yes... but not my heart...it still beats for only one person...and that's you... don't you dare do Ramanchi with me... I know you can never be an Aamir of Ghajini nor I would be a Kalpana..." Khushi said fumbling with the buttons of his shirt and found his eyes rounding at her.

"Khushi, what are you doing?" he asked looking at the open door of her cabin and she placed her index finger onto his parted lips.

"I missed you so much...and I cant wait to reach home..." She said walking towards the door and then closed it with a loud bang. Arnav's eyes rounded as she removed her shirt in one go, her eyes glued to his form. His mouth went dry at the sight, she was there looking at him with those huge beautiful eyes, clad in a lacy red bra and a black pencil skirt.

"You don't have any idea how I managed to keep my sanity in front of Ms. Bed'worth.." he said pacing towards her and then slipped his eager hand onto her now bare waist.

She gasped looking into his coffee brown eyes, which was been dilated with passion.

"And Ms. Bed'worth had a hard time resisting her mentor during her work at his apartment.. she would have melt into a puddle if Mr. Mentor kept torturing her with his killer looks and deadly intentions.

His hands possessively wounded around her waist and he hoisted her up onto the table, while Khushi cleaned every other object with a swift swipe of her hand on the wooden surface.

Arnav's eyes bored into hers as she hooked her long legs onto his waist, a move he always appreciated her doing. His lips hungrily found hers, while her hands possessively raked on his back muscles.

"You know I have not recovered fully...my right leg.. I do limp ..and I can't run as fast as I used to..." He said sadly down casting his eyes, while Khushi lifted his chin with her index finger.

"Do I look like a shatir vamp of 70's hindi movies to you, who left the hero because he was handicapped and joined the villain's gang?"

She said mockingly digging her ankle onto his perfect bottom. He sighed looking into her desire filled eyes and then kissed her both cheeks one by one.

"You can never be a vamp, you will always be my angel...and I love you so much...that sometimes when I look at myself in the mirror...l see you instead of me.. is it some kind of disease? Or am I a psycho?" He grinned widely as her eyes moistened once again.

"I love you too... And I don't know what else can I do,, other than loving you..its like the whole meaning of my ajeeb life...without you...I am nothing.. Arnav...its high time you should know it.."

Mrs. Bedworth hurried to the flat it was a fine Sunday morning and she knew that Mr. Raizada might be waiting for her with a grumpy face everything scattered around the flat to be tidied.

She smiled pressing the doorbell and did not get any response from inside. She frowned and knocked on the door. It was already unlocked and she entered inside taking in the mess he had created. But she found none, the flat was like she had left the last week she was been there, and she was surprised beyond words when she finally looked at the mess he had created inside the kitchen.

As far as she knew kitchen was the only place which stayed neat and clean. And now that she is back, kitchen was the only place which needed cleaning.

Jalebi's were scattered around the counter and on the floor, while two bottles of wine were inside the sink. A half eaten pizza too was on the floor along with a crushed bottle of coke. She smiled and started her work starting from the cleaning of the counter.

Khushi clutched onto the bed spread while Arnav made his way down trailing kisses all over her shoulders and stopping at her heaving breasts. She opened her eyes for a second and found him staring at her lushes breasts with admiration seeping off his caramel eyes. She so loved the way he looked at her, with so much passion in his eyes. If it was possible to make love through your eyes, she would be honored to be Arnav's partner because he knew, he just knew how to make a woman weak on her knees just a mere look at her.

And fortunately or unfortunately she was the only one at the receiving end. Arnav looked up at her, meeting her dilated eyes. His dark black hair contrasting against her milky white skin. She smiled at him, a wicked one and he knew as what she was thinking by then. They always read each other's silence like an open book.

"Gorgeous..." He mouthed before swooping down to catch one straining peak into his hungry mouth. Khushi arched back holding onto his shoulders, her nails digging into his skin. Arnav liked the way she raked her fingers onto his body. He felt possessed by the woman who thrashed beneath him. her wanton desires reflecting in her hazel eyes, as he enjoyed fondling with her gorgeous breasts, taking the whole time of the world. He did not want to stop, neither she. They had just started their long journey together, the journey that will never end...

"This is torture..." Khushi whined slipping her eager hands inside his boxer, while Arnav stopped her from going further. She was about to rip off the last scrap of clothing from his body when his hands removed hers. She gasped and met his gaze, matching his passion.

"Sponge Bob eh?"

"Thought you might like it.."

"Of course I do... but I seem to love the inner Sponge Bob more..."

"You do?"

"Mmhmm..."

Mrs. Bedworth heard noises from the bedroom and thought Arnav was finally awake. She checked the time and it was 9 in the morning. Is not it too early for him to be awake on Sunday mornings? She thought grinning widely when something odd caught her eyes.

A beautiful hairclip lay next to refrigerator. Her smile turned into a grin as she picked up the same and placed on the table. Finally, he was getting acquainted with girls!! she thought walking back to the kitchen. Her ears caught the softest of voice coming from his bedroom, and the next minute the door was been opened, revealing a beautiful girl wearing just a short skirt and a spaghetti top.

The both woman looked at each other with widened eyes and then cleared their throats.

"You must be Mrs. Bedworth..." Khushi said walking towards the kitchen as she ran a hand through her long hair.

"And you must be Khushi Gupta, if I am not wrong?" She said with a naughty glint in her eyes.

Khushi winked at her and hoped onto the counter in her half sleepy manner. She smiled and busied herself in the cleaning.

"So, you got your Raizada back...eh"

"Yes, and I would not have made it this far if you did not had helped me..." Khushi said reaching for her sides and hugged her. Mrs. Bedworth patted her back and looked at Arnav who was standing at the door, smiling at them both.

"You know this lady... She really loves you... Don't ever leave her like you did before..." Mrs. Bedworth said pulling Khushi's cheeks while she beamed onto the elderly woman.

"I know Mrs. Bedworth... I can never think of that day... I was a fool back then..but now I know her importance... She is my everything..." He said walking towards them while Khushi's eyes moistened at his words. She ran towards him and threw her arms across his form. He held onto her form, she was crying badly and the next moment she pushed him away.

Mrs. Bedworth and Arnav was little taken aback by her gesture but it soon changed into a smile when Khushi knelt down in front of him.

"Mr. Raizada.. I don't have any fancy words to charm you... I will just do this straight... WILL YOU MARRY ME?"

She asked looking directly in his eyes while he too knelt down in front of her, holding onto her extended hands.

"YES... MS. GUPTA..."
