[Time skips to night]

Aash's pov- I went outside the hostel gate and saw him standing besides a bike. We smiled at each other. He came closer to me and whispers 'You're beautiful' and starts putting the helmet on my head. We went on a bike ride to a hill which showcased the beautiful city. The night lights flickered and looked on less than diamonds. The view was beautiful but what was more beautiful was the thought behind that. I looked at him and he gave me rose.

Aash- You're being romantic (she realises what she said)

Aash- You're being romantic (she realises what she said)

Sanku- Not that (he smiled at aash tucking the rose in her hair) So what do you want next time?

Aash- Umm purple orchids.

Sanku- done madam.

(They both sat down there enjoying the view. Aash puts her head on Sanku's shoulder and holds his arm)

[Aash remembers her past with Veer (read part One if you forgot who Veer was)

Aash- I cannot do this Veer.

Veer- What's wrong?

Aash- We just be with each other spending nights. But you are never ready to give that special place in your life. Its not for always its going to be like this.

Veer- You know I can't do that.

Aash- I feel you're just cheating me. No doubt I have seen you flirting with girls all the time. If you want me to leave I will but I can't do this anymore.

Veer- You know in our profession we cannot.

Aash- Then let it be veer. I'm not doing this anymore.

[And two days after that veer was shot dead]

[Present time]

Sanku- (Tucking the flick of her hair behind) Did you like this?

Aash- Yes (Sanku kissed her forhead) Thank you Sanku.

Sanku- for?

Aash- Making this so special!

Sanku- Because you're special, you deserve everything best.

Aash- (hugs him tightly) You're the best.

Sanku- Because I've the best by my side. (and hugs her back with a bit more tighter grip)

They had a good, peaceful time enjoying there. After sometime they decided to go. Sanku was riding the bike and aash lay her head on his back and holding him tight. Suddenly it began to ran. Sanku was riding and aash was enjoying the rain. After a while he decided to pull over as it was harmful to ride in heavy rain. Aash ran towards a hut nearby.

Sanku enters the hut after Aash.

Aash's pov- He entered in a wave that hit me like a ripple of softener and rain as he slammed the door shut.
'We're wet' he said moving his steps slowly towards me. He removed his jacket and watch and kept it aside.
I stood there, heart thumping in my chest, pressed against the wall. He watched me carefully as he'd seen me for the first time.

Sanku's pov- There was no terror clouding her features, just the sound of her heart loud enough for me to feel, strong enough to overwhelm everything but those inquisitive eyes. She liked to talk and I didn't; she fixed herself and I didn't, allowing the magnetic pull I felt within to pull me close to her until the distance between our eyes narrowed along with the space between our bodies.

Aash's pov:

"I'd like to kiss you without asking permission, but I can't" he said.

I couldn't control the flutter within, the lump in my throat, the violent heartbeat.

"I shouldn't..." He swallowed hard as his hand slid fast down my back, sending impulses to my spine as he pressed a little harder against me until our cheeks brushed.

"I won't" he parted to look at me,

"if you don't want me to."

Adrenaline rush. So much of it that I nearly forgot to breathe, eyes jumping from his lips to his eyes, my heart a ticking bomb. He gave in, parting his lips only to feel mine pressing like an artist's brush against his canvas, intense, smooth but contained until his hands, with a mind of their own, took hold of him and everything accelerated. His thumb was throbbing at the hollow of my neck, rubbing up and down, pulsing warmth as his tongue conquered the depths of my mouth, hungry, consuming, pulling me into the warmth of him as if he mastered the balance of gravity.

"You shouldn't have kissed me like that!" I found myself gasping, caught between an array of feelings and trying to regain sense in his arms. His half-closed eyes were now wide open.

"How...how would you like to be kissed?" An alarming curiosity washed over his features, he was scanning me for answers.
(pov ends)

Sanku's pov- I was stunned at myself, at the Amber flickering overpowering my consciousness at the tempting flavour of the foreign lips I found myself longing for. It took a split second to give into them again, surrendering to the downward force pulling me under.

Aash's pov- He pushed me upwards, allowing my legs to cross around his waist, and parted only to look at my nervous face, searching for reassurance.

Sanku's pov- She did like being kissed. Dizziness took both over us as we mirrored a dumbstruck smile and lightness. Whatever rush this was, whatever her lips brought, I wanted more.
They parted ad they were out of breath. Looked at each other for a while until..
(we'll continue this scene later)
