Naina laid back down on the bed beside Sameer, and dozed off barely within a minute. She snuggled into Sameer after feeling cold while he just lightly chuckled at her cuteness and childishness.

After landing they had headed directly to their mansion as Sameer had some important work.

Sameer - Naina mujhe kuch kaam hai toh main ja raha hun, I'll be back by 6. Tum ready rehna n I'll pick you up for the party. Venue thoda door hai toh hume almost 1 hour lag jaega pahunchne ke liye so be ready by sharp 6 pm.

Naina - Haan baba aur kitni baar kahoge? Main ready ho jaungi time par!

Sameer - Fine! Aur chaho toh Preeti ko bhi bula sakti ho.

Naina - Theek hai ab aap jaiye kyunki agar aap late hogaye then I'll shoot you and I am not kidding ( *sarcastic smile* )

Sameer - ( *amused* ) Sach mein?

Naina - Haan.

Naina said to try to scare him which she of course knew wouldn't work on him but instead of mocking her or making his way out of the house, Sameer pulled her closer and circling his arms around her body, buried his face in her neck and inhaling her scent, whispered in her ear

Sameer -  I can't wait to be killed by you.

Sameer moved away from her neck but still both of them were dangerously close, staring into each other's eyes.

Naina - ( *staring at him in disbelief* ) You are a psychopath

Sameer - Correction. A breathtakingly hot psychopath ( *Winked* )

Running his hand over his freely-flowing hair, Sameer grabbed his needed file and walked out of the door without glancing back even once.

Naina - ( *sighed and chuckled* ) Mr. Self-obsessed Maheshwari

It was about 5 in the afternoon and Naina was almost ready but she was really nervous for some reasons that she didn't want to remember.

Preeti - Naina itni nervous kyun ho rahi hai? Sab theek hoga. Chinta mat kar. Aur tu behave toh aise kar rahi hai jaise first date pe ja rahe ho tum dono

Naina - Preeti tujhe pata hai main nervous kyun hun

Preeti - Tera kuch nahi ho sakta. Bahut samay guzar chuka hai us incident, bhool ja, aur Sameer waisa kuch repeat bhi nahi hone dega kabhi.

Just as they were talking, they heard a manly voice from behind and recognised it right away.

" Kaun kya hone nahi dega? "

Naina - ( *turned around* ) Sameer kuch nahi. Chale abhi?

The moment Sameer saw her, his breath hitched, she was looking ethereal.

The dress was fitting her perfectly, defining every curve, and her make-up was minimal but perfect. He was taking in every detail about her and also noticed the slight blush that was adoring her cheeks. But he frowned on looking into her eyes, the emotion swirling in them was one that he could see in her rarely. It was 'nervousness and anxiety' but he didn't ask her anything about it to not make her uncomfortable.

Sameer - ( *clearing his throat* ) Chale?

Naina - Thoda wait kar sakte hain kya aap? I swear I'll be back from the washroom in a minute ( *nervous smile* )

Sameer - Yeah sure

Naina - Thank you I swear main ek minute mein wapas aa jaungi.

Naina hurried into the washroom leaving behind Preeti and Sameer in complete silence.
Sameer took his phone out and started checking his emails while Preeti stood in the silence staring at Sameer fighting her inner turmoil. Finally sensing her gaze upon him, Sameer lifted up and eyes asked her if she wanted to say anything.
