A Need To Understand -SuVan FF

16.

"Ahem! Ahem!" Shravan fake coughed and the Tiwari sisters turned around to see him standing there with a smile.

"I told you to wait, phir bhi peeche chale aaye!" Kanchan rolled her eyes at their neighbor handsome.

"So what?" Shravan said and wrapped his one arm around Suman's bare waist making shiver sun down her spine. But she leaned in his embrace.

"Meri behen ke bina kuch samay bhi nahi guzara jaata na?" Kanchan said smiling at the duo and Shravan nodded his head in no like a child.

"Okay, I am going inside. You two lovebirds, come inside as soon as possible." Kanchan said acting as an elder sister here.

"Okay my lord." Shravan said and the trio laughed together.

"You miss her, don't you?" Shravan asked Suman once Kanchan went inside and the duo was alone.

"Of course I do." Suman said and again looked at the starry sky.

"You never told me and I never asked you about aunty's death." Shravan said.

"There is nothing to tell anyone." Suman said.

"Matlab?" He asked looking at her confused.

"No one knows Shravan how she died. Even the doctor couldn't figure out the reason." She said looking at him.

Shravan didn't say anything but wrapped his arms around her, pulling her for a hug. She adjusted herself in his embrace and let him have his ways one her.

The rhythmic beats of his heart was giving peace to her mind and unknowingly making her heart flutter at the same time.

After a heavy dinner, Shravan and Suman decided to drop Bunty off at his place.

"If you guys get late then Shravan you have the keys, right?" Kavita asked before they left.

"Yes mumma!" Shravan said and Bunty wished everyone goodnight and left with the couple.

"Suman, you sit in front." Bunty said but Suman nodded in no.

"My leg is hurting with these heels, I wanna sit comfortably at the back. You sit in front." Suman said and Bunty agreed with her and sat in front.

"So Shravan, what's the plan?" Bunty asked as Shravan started driving.

"Of what?" Shravan asked.

"Will you be joining your unit back?" Bunty asked and there was an uncomfortable silence in the car.

Shravan looked in the rear view mirror and saw Suman wiping a tear that escaped her eyes. He smiled and decided to break the news which he was keeping for later.

"Yes I will be joining but the good part is, I got transferred." Shravan said and looked at Suman through the mirror.

"What? Transfer? When?" Suman asked.

"Today only."

"But where?" Bunty asked.

"Back here. In Bhopal." Shravan said and Suman couldn't stop smiling.

"So you will be here?" She asked smiling.

"Forever. Because this transfer is supposed to be my last transfer." He said and Suman kissed him on his cheek.

"Suman, I'm driving. Do you want to die like this?" Shravan asked and Suman leaned back on her seat blushing.

Soon enough the couple dropped off Bunty and Suman came and sat in front.

"So, what do you say?" Shravan asked as they increased the distance to Bunty's place.

"About what?" She asked.

"Long drive?" He asked.

"Yes!" She squealed and Shravan boosted the speed of the car as the lovers went for a long drive.

"So how was your night?" Shravan asked as they he opened the door of the Malhotra mansion.

"Magnificent. Yours?" She asked as she linked her arms around his one arm.

"Splendid. It's one of the best nights I have ever had." He said and locked the door behind him.

"Goodnight then." Suman said and started to go but was pulled back by Shravan.

"Where do you think you are going?" He asked pulling her closer.

"To my room, to sleep." Suman said innocently.

"You remember I promised you something before reaching the restaurant?" He asked smirking and Suman widened her eyes as she remembers what he promised- a kiss.

"No. No. No. Look S-Shravan, e-everyone is in t-the house a-and..." The words dried up in her mouth as Shravan lashed his lips on hers.

Suman without thinking kissed him back. Shravan keeps his hands on her bare waist and drew a pattern which Suman couldn't figure out.

He pulls her closer and deepens the kiss as Suman wrapped her hands around his neck and let him do his own magic.

Suman breaks the kiss- out of oxygen! Keeping her head on his chest and letting his heartbeat calm the havoc he created inside of her body.

"I love you." He said and hugged her tighter.

"I love you." She said and let the sleep embrace her as she stood there in his warm hug. Shravan looked down only to see his love fast asleep in his arms. He carefully picked her up and moved to her room and making her sleep comfortably in a comforter.

Giving her a kiss on her forehead, he left for his room smiling.
