~"Oh, what I would give to sleep in your arms tonight"

Siddharth's pov:

Next minute Avneet was running and coming in our direction , she stopped just infront of us and looked up at me with with her big, brown eyes and I fought back the smile that wanted to invade my face.

Dammit, what's happening to me?

I shook myself back to the real world "Iam seriously tired now" Kartik huffed appearing from behind . "So am I" Naira said both of them turned in my direction and smirked "but you aren't  right?" Kartik said I know where this is going GOD!! 
"Ok than you are on Avneet duty now" Naira stated winking as she brushed past me with Kartik following behind who gave me a teasing smile.
They didn't even gave me a chance to protest . I looked at Avneet and she stuck her tongue out at me.

"Now what was this for?" I asked and she just shrugged "Just felt like it" 
"You are pretty immature , you know?" I said 
"You are pretty mean, you know" She replied furrowing her eyebrows

"Race you back" She said suddenly turning pointing at the door, and ran off .
I was trying to suppress a smile as I followed her.
She was one interesting girl.

Avneet's pov:

I stood around the corner waiting for Siddharth . I had  ran off and was planning to jumping on him when he walked by, in order to scare him.
"Avneet?" I heard Siddharth call. He obviously had no idea that I was hiding. I bubbled with anticipation and tried to keep from fidgeting too much.
He walked by me, and as soon as he did , I kept my hands on his shoulder and jumped onto his back  while laughing. I didn't quite make it all the way up , so I pulled a little to readjust and wrapped my arms tighter around his neck and my legs wounds around him too.
"Haha I got you!" I teased 

He chuckled a little "Yeah, you did cookie monster" I've actually kinda started liking his nickname for me.

To my surprise he didn't pry me off him. Good thing too because I had a bit of a death grip on him. He looped his arm around my legs to keep me on his back, and began to walk. "It actually work out , now you can't  escape" he said darkly.

I sighed , but didn't protest. I was starting to feel a bit drowsy , and I rested my chin on his shoulder without thinking. He turned his face towards me a little, but I didn't feel like I could move .
All my energy was quickly draining. The sugar must be starting to wear off.

Siddharth's pov:
"Avneet?" I called out as I walked . She had dashed off and I had no idea where she went.

Out of nowhere, I felt something like a monkey jumped on my back and wrap themselves around me ,something really small.

And I of course knew who it was no one else have the courage to jump on MY back like that. 
"Haha I got you!" 

I couldn't help but chuckle, "Yeah you did cookie monster!" . Without thinking I grabbed her legs, which kept her in place on my back and began to walk giving her a piggy bank ride. Avneet was so light that I didn't even notice the extra weight.
"It actually work out" I added lowering my voice  "now you can't escape".

Avneet didn't replied and I felt her rest her head on my shoulder. I couldn't help but turn my head in attempt to look at her since her actions gave me goosebumps on my neck. Her hair were beginning to fall beside my face . Her grip began to loosen just a tad, and I got the impression that she had just hit her wall and crashed. 

*****

I gently laid her down on the bed she squirmed a little and then tightly gripped bob (her minion stuff toy) and continued sleeping hugging him.
Oh how I wish it was me- what no I shook away all the stupid thoughts in my mind and went to sit on the couch besides Naira and Kartik (the couch which is in the bedroom ) 
"It's ok, maybe one day!" Kartik whispered in my ear and I looked at him confused Iam pretty sure I didn't said that loud
"I know that look , I've myself gone through that phase" He began
"And now look where we are" He said looking at Naira who was half asleep on the couch while gripping his arm. I still gave him a confused expression but I somewhere knew what he meant.
"Come on I know you are smarter than this Siddharth" He said now getting up and picking Naira along.

While I glanced at the girl sleeping peacefully hugging her yellow plush toy,
how can someone look so beautiful, cute and innocent while sleeping . Few strands of hair were covering her face , I felt a sudden urge to remove them but I suppressed it and laid down beside her and slept.

Avneet's pov: 

Today is another weekend episode also we are shooting Diwali special episode today , Iam quite excited , the house is beautifully decorated also almost everyone have received Indian outfits from their designers for today .

But we are celebrating that doesn't mean Salman Sir will spare us atleast I don't think so .
We still had time to get ready,
"Iam going to make myself a coffee, anyone?" I asked getting up
"Me pls" Kartik said and I nodded
"One for me too!" Siddharth said 
"What's the magical word?" I asked smirking 
"Now?" He said and I rolled my eyes
"Wrong answer you aren't getting anything!" I said and turned to leave 
"Fine, please?" He groaned 
"See it wasn't that tough" I said teasingly and he rolled his eyes.

While I left to make some coffee.
