Irresistible

18. Alarm

It was midnight and Haseena was sleeping. She was a light sleeper and when the door to her room opened and closed, she woke up but knew who the person might be for there was (1) adorable midget that lived with her.
Karishma walked near to her bed and poked Haseena's shoulder not being able to see that Haseena was already awake in the dark.

"Haseena ka hum aapke paas so saktey hai? Agar aap uncomfortable hai toh bata dijiye. Humme neend nahi aah rahi hai." Karishma said in a small voice. Who would even recognise that she was the same Bhaukal Singh that roamed on her big bike with her coolers in swag, slapping her way through streets.
"Ayiye." Haseena replied making space for Karishma and Karishma laid down near her, automatically snuggling up to Haseena and relishing her warmth when she was as close as she'd desired.

"Neend kyun ni aah ri aapko? Dard ho raha hai kya?" She asked referring to her bruised stomach.

"Aapke paas hone ka mann kar raha tha aur yeh sochkar neend nahi aaya ki kaheen apko bura na lagey humare aapke room mein aapke paas aise-"

"Agar aap nahi aati toh kal hum aane waale tey. So jayiye chup chap." Haseena said closing her eyes.

Karishma smiled and kissed below Haseena's jawline where her head was nestled and Haseena stiffened.

"Karishma humme kuch kuch ho raha hai. Hum so nahi payengey." Haseena said innocently and Karishma laughed out loud but controlled it quickly finding it adorable how Haseena was being so candid with her.

"Acha ka ho raha hai aapko?" She asked, feigning innocence.

"Woh yahaan pe-" Haseena trailed her fingertips against Karishma's bare waist."-aur yahaan bhi kuch kuch ho raha hai jab bhi aap aise harkat karti hai toh.." She now trailed her hand, descending from Karishma's waist to her stomach and lower and Karishma's eyes widened.

"Samaj aah gaya hai. Aah gaya samaj." She announced twice almost shouting and Haseena's hand stopped. She now encircled her waist with her hands pulling her closer. She was smirking so widely at once again besting her Bhaukal Singh. Karishma quickly recollected herself. Now she was the one who was feeling everything that would ruin her night's sleep.

"Jyada baniye mat Haseena ji. Aap na ek number ki chaaloo cheej nikhli. Humme andaza nahi tha." She said, and Haseena chuckled.

"Sirf aapke liye." She said and kissed Karishma on her eyebrow. Another one of her favourite things about Karishma's face.

..

The next morning, Karishma wiggled to the noise of Haseena's alarm ringtone.
"Haseena yeh alarm ki song bahoth hi gandi hai.. change kar lijiye." She mumbled in her sleep.

"Ji aap hi badal dijiye." Haseena replied but her voice seemed far.
Karishma rolled on the bed trying to find Haseena but she was not there. She opened her eyes with difficulty to see that Haseena was getting ready, already in her uniform. She quickly sat up on the bed, the duvet was on her head, covering her entire body with only her face visible to Haseena. She looked like a tiny duvet hill with an adorable face.

Haseena found her adorable face irresistible and came towards her bending but Karishma shrank away. Haseena seemed taken aback.

"Arrey humne brush nahi kiya hai." Karishma complained but Haseena placed a kiss on her cheeks.

"Toh?" Haseena moved back to the mirror and started doing her hair in her signature ponytail.

"Aap itni subah ready kaise hogayi. Humko kyun nahi jagaya?"

"Karishma humme headquarters jaana hai. Beli case ke silsile mein humme wahaan bulaya gaya hai. Lagta hai case Crimes division ko transfer kar dengey kuch dino mein."

"Kya kyun??? Aap kuch kijiye na maddam sir." Karishma protested.

"Hum koshish karengey Karishma Singh par aap toh jaanti kaise chalta hai yeh sab aur upar se pressure bhi daal rahe hongey."

"Theek hai." Karishma mumbled.

"Hum abhi aate hai." She said, going to her room. She came back to Haseena's room and came between the mirror and Haseena. Encircling her arms around Haseena's neck she kissed her with passion, tasting her newly applied lipstick and Haseena kissed her back placing her hands on Karishma's waist pulling her. They parted and Karishma's lips were maroon with Haseena's shade of Lipstick. Haseena grinned at her.

"Acha lag raha hai aap par yeh." She said rubbing her thumb against Karishma's lips showing her that her lipstick was now on Karishma's lips.

Karishma's eyes were now dark with desire and she looked at Haseena and Haseena just kissed her cheek in reply.
"Humme der ho jayega." She said answering Karishma's unasked questions. Karishma pouted and Haseena pulled her cheek.

"Humare saat date pe chalengi aap aaj raat?"

"Haan. Kahaan pe?" Haseena asked.

"Woh surprise hai." Karishma said and took Haseena's cap from the table and placed it on Haseena's head. Her throat was tight and she was emotional because that simple act of Karishma making her wear her uniform made her realise how incomplete she would be without her. Her day started with Karishma and ended with Karishma. She regretted all those days since she'd met her for not taking that extra step. But things had their way of working out and she was grateful for what they had now.

"Humme aapki aadat lag gayi hai." She stated, caressing Karishma's face with love.

"Toh lagne dijiye na hum bhaag thodi jaane waale hai aapko chodkar." Karishma said smiling at Haseena correcting her collar.

"Ab lag rahi na SHO Haseena Mallik." She said stepping back looking at Haseena proudly.

Haseena closed the gap between them hugging Karishma. Her chin resting on Karishma's shoulder, she closed her eyes inhaling their proximity.

"Kya hua Haseena ji?"

"Bas aapko hug karne ka mann kar raha tha." She mumbled and Karishma patted her back sensing Haseena's inner turmoil.

Shortly after that, Haseena left and Karishma got ready and went inside the kitchen to make coffee and found that Haseena had made her breakfast. Scrambled eggs to be precise and it was neatly spread on a plate with a sticky note on the side.

"Breakfast skip na karein. Recover hona hai." Was scribbled on the note.
Karishma pocketed the note and started having her breakfast with a smile.

Kis janam mein kitne punya kaam kiye hongey hum ki humme Haseena mil gayi..
