Part 7:
Yuvraj's POV:
A feeling of finally being free, which I hadn't felt in months, finally released me from what felt like a mental and emotional prison. She wasn't planning on leaving me. I could be with her without fear. I could be myself and like always, she would accept me the way I was. Best part was that, I had finally managed to express myself and let her know where my heart was, and I knew that was long overdue.
I dedicated this kiss to the one year plus we spent together but apart in so many ways. If I was trying to make her feel my love, she was doing the same. She locked her arms around my neck and pulled me closer and I didn't mind getting closer. I looked into her eyes after the kiss. She looked like she loved and adored me more than anyone else in the world. Suhani's love had a depth which I couldn't possibly understand because it's a love which managed to survive the most shocking of revelations. For so long, her love was one sided but yet I could say for sure that she loved me right now as much as she always had.
She touched my face and I enjoyed every touch. The top most button on the shirt was unbuttoned. She was distracted and busy running her fingers through my hair. I felt that desire in the pit of my stomach to make love to her. I touched her neck and my fingers reached the buttons. I opened another one and she held my hand and stopped me, but she didn't look nervous. She took my hand and kissed it. My mouth watered with desire. I gave her a soft, wet kiss. She touched my shoulders and then my arms, and finally I felt her fingers beneath my shirt. She moved her hands upwards, against my chest. It was a signal. She wanted me as well. Her expression reflected so much love and trust that I felt like the luckiest guy alive.
I wanted her so much that at this point I couldn't hide it even if I tried. She was trying to undress me. I smiled when I realized that she was attempting to pull my shirt over my head.
"Here, I'll help..." I said. I grinned at her impatience and she giggled. I took off my shirt.
"Would you like to wear it?" I asked. She blushed. I kissed her cheek. She closed her eyes. I lowered the shirt from her shoulder and kissed her. She held me tight. Then I kissed her neck. I felt her leg against mine. I caressed her bare skin there. Everything slowed down. I wanted to make every moment memorable for her. If this was it, I didn't want to leave any stone unturned. I thought about undressing completely. That would probably lead to a point of no return. She didn't speak a word but her eyes said it all. She couldn't wait anymore. We kissed. She unbuttoned her shirt. I planted kisses down her shoulder and neck and lower, but then she stopped me.
"Yuvraj..." I heard it once but it didn't stop me. Then she held my face.
"Yuvraj...listen...both our phones are ringing..."
"Huh?" I couldn't hear a thing. Had my ears just become completely immune to any sound except the sound of Suhani's voice?
I reluctantly moved away from her and sat up. I grabbed my phone and she grabbed hers.
"Sharad called me..." I said.
"Maa called me." She said.
"Maybe they're worried." I said. I called Sharad back. "Guru, are you both ok? Mausi has been worried sick. She kept calling the farmhouse and when I told her what happened, she got more concerned. I hope I didn't disturb you..." He said. "Bhabhi wasn't answering her phone either so Mausi got really worried..."
"Oh, Sharad...let me speak to her." I said.
"Yuvraj?" Maa spoke.
"Are you both ok? Why haven't you been answering the phone? It's been ringing for ages. I can expect this from you but never from Suhani!"
I looked at Suhani who had covered herself with a sheet. She blushed. "Maa, um...we...got wet, on the way here...so Suhani went for a bath and I fell asleep." What a big liar I was. I eyed Suhani. I gave her that threatening "just wait what I do to you after this" kind of look.
"Ok, well, thank God you're both alright. I want you to bring her back home tomorrow. Don't let me down."
"Yes, Maa..."
"Goodnight."
"Goodnight, Maa."
I turned the phone off after that. I was pissed. Suhani giggled and rolled over on her side and watched me.
"Goodnight, Yuvraj..."
"Shut up." I said. I pulled the sheet off her and she refused to let it go, so we fought over that until I gave up and lay down next to her. I moved my pillow closer to hers.
"Come here, Mrs. Birla..." I said. She obeyed. "Your mother in law wants you home tomorrow...our home..." I said. "Are you ready?" I asked. She nodded. "I'll go, but only for my sweet mother in law..."
"What about your ultra-sweet, sexy, handsome and intelligent husband?"
"Not for him." She wrinkled her nose.
"In that case...I want my shirt back. If you don't give it, I'll remove it...forcibly..." I whispered the last word. She hugged me. I held her against me. We didn't continue where we left off. It could wait because for tonight I felt like the most contented main in the world, one that had the most precious possession of his lying in his arms.
