Finding us

Chapter 69

Diya was in the kitchen, making a cup of coffee for herself when Nikhil walked over ten minutes later, carrying the breakfast tray with him.

He looked so dapper, dressed in a grey button-down shirt and blue washed jeans! His hair was ruffled, and there was a twinkling something in his eyes that made Diya's heart flutter.

"Want some?" Nikhil smiled, indicating the sandwiches on his plate, whilst he sipped on his coffee.

Diya shook her head, her heart hammering in her mouth. A kiss with this man was enough to wreck her senses!

"What happened?" He frowned, moving forward to cup her face.

"I'm getting all nervous and shy now because of you!" She whined, sounding very irritable.

He continued to blink in confusion.

"We kissed na... Toh... I'm very shy!" She snapped, toying with her fingers.

Nikhil gaped at her, before he chuckled.

But as Diya continued to avoid his gaze, he simply drained his coffee and wrapped his arms around her.

When she blinked at him in confusion, he pecked her lips.

"I have also kissed you... But I'm not shying away from you!" He smiled.

Goosebumps erupted all over her skin and Diya gasped as he continued to peck her lips, his hand cupping her face.

"Arre I'm not feeling shy intentionally!" She pouted, and he kissed her pout.

"You love me" his eyes twinkled whilst he continued to peck her lips.

At these words, her whole face turned ruby red and she looked away, breathing hard.

"I love you for your fiesty nature you know??  But I have no clue how to deal with this blushing side of you!" Nikhil confessed, earning her attention.

She gazed coyly up at him, a shy smile curling her lips. She giggled.

"You were so drunk that you didn't even remember my confession of love, or our kiss!! My first kiss!!" She twisted her mouth.

"I thought it was all a dream... A really good dream where you looked like a goddess and attended my brother's engagement, kissed me and dined with me, danced with Ajay and then confessed your love for me!" Nikhil smiled sadly.

"You love me and that's exactly why you get jealous so easily right? I mean Ajay... He's your brother for God's sake!" Diya scoffed, rolling her eyes.

"I'm allowed to be jealous!" He shrugged.

"Aila! Yeh kya jealousy hoti hai jo mujko nahi malum? I've never gotten jealous! I don't know how you can get jealous, specially in matters considering love? Look at Pri and Rohan jiju! He's such a good looking guy and girls were all fawning over him yesterday but did Priya stew and get jealous? And he too... Everyone who sees Adi and Pri for the first time always assume they're dating but you didn't see Rohan getting all green eyed when Adi danced with Pri!" Diya crossed her arms across her chest.

"Okay for starters, Rohan himself confessed that both of them are a little jealous, which does motivate them to work harder in their relationship! And second of all, Rohan had turned to Hulk at one point when this Adi dude and Priya were dancing! And thirdly, all men do get jealous... It's a common thing in relationships.... It is common for men!" Nikhil shrugged, now munching on a sandwich.

"Oh please! What nonsense!" Diya scoffed.

"You can ask any guy... Ask Rohan, or Kunal or Abhi or even my bhai... Ask any guy and you'll get the same answer!" He shrugged.
