Arranged Marriage

Chapter 9

Fourth's POV

"How did you know that she was upto something like this"
"On the day she came home she told me to stay away from you,she likes you.When I called you today and she picked it up I was pretty much sure she would do something and my hunch was correct"
"Why didn't you tell me this before"
"Would you have believed me if I did.She is your best friend you would never believe something like that from anyone."
"She was my best friend and you are not anyone Fourth you are my husband ofcourse I would have believed you"
"I don't think you would have believed me so I kept my mouth shut nevermind just stay away from her I don't like her intentions"
"I will"
After that we went to sleep.For the next few days she didn't do anything she didn't text or call Gemini and she didn't even came to his office to meet him.I know she is still upto something the way she barged out of the hotel room that day.

It's weekend and we are going to do our grocery shopping we headed to the store and bought all the things we needed.
"Would you like to have an ice-cream"Gemini asked me
I just smiled at him and nodded like a kid I like ice-cream a lot
"Which flavour"he asked
"Chocolate....."
"Chocolate it is okay just wait here"
He brought one chocolate ice and one butterscotch ,"Do you like butter scotch"I asked and He nodded
I mentally took a note of it
"It's yumm" I said
He chuckled he looked at me intently and brought his fingers close to my lips he wiped off the ice-cream which was on the corner of my lips and sucked it omg omg the fuck what is he trying to do,"You are such a messy eater"he teased me
"I'm not okay it's just ice-cream makes me like this"he just laughed it off
After that we headed towards the parking lot but I saw that one of the grocery bag was missing,"Gemini one bag is not there maybe we left it at the counter"
He checked the bags,"Wait here for a bit I'll go and bring it back"I nodded my head he left to bring the bag and I headed towards our car and put the other things inside when I finished doing it I felt someone's presence near me I turned around but there was no one but I was still feeling someone's presence here maybe I was overthinking I just shrugged it off and stood there looking at my phone.

Gemini's POV

I went inside to bring the bag which we left at the counter itself I went there and collected it,"I'm sorry we just forgot it here"
"No problem Sir"
I headed back to the parking lot but why was I feeling restless while going there when I reached at the entrance I saw someone was standing a little far away from fourth looking at him I don't know who it was as the person was wearing a mask and a cap that person took slow steps towards him when I saw him take out a knife from behind the fuck what is this I took long strides towards Fourth that person was going to attack him but at the same time I pulled fourth behind me and that knife straightaway went in my abdomen,"GEM"I heard Fourth shouting
He went towards the person and held him by the collar,"who are you SECURITY SECURITY, Damn you who the fuck are you"he pulled of the person's mask and I saw the person I least expected to be doing this it was Minnie was she going to hurt Fourth what would have happened if I didn't reach here on time she started wriggling in his hold but at the same time security came in and held her fourth came towards me kneeling down he kept my head on his lap,"GEM stay awake please please"he dialed the ambulance and turned his attention towards me ,"Why did you have to do this huhh are you crazy"I felt my eyes getting heavy
"Fourth..."I put my hand on his cheek wiping off his tears"Fourth I'm sorry for hurting you in the early days of our marriage I.... I acted cold and rude towards you I regret it a lot I'm Sorry please forgive me"
"Gem for God's sake just shut up this is not the time to talk about something like this"
"No hear me out please ..."I pointed to the wound "this is already hurting a lot I Love you Fourth I don't know when did I started falling in love with you but when I did I fell really hard you are the best thing that happened to me I'm so glad that I got you as my husband."
"GEM..."he held me tighter in his arms crying his hearts out
"You became the light in my dark in the last 4 months,you took care of me when I was sick,you tried to make me open up even if I was not willing to do it you already took my heart Fourth and I didn't even knew that please forgive me if I'm confessing this too late.But better late than never.I love you Fourth I....I love you."and my eye lids started feeling more heavy I heard the sirens of ambulance but till then I was already knocked out.

Fourth's POV

I was waiting for Gemini in the parking lot when I felt someone pull me behind him at first I didn't understand who it was but when I did I saw that someone attacked Gemini with the knife no no it wasn't for him it was for me,"GEM"I shouted I went to the person and held him by the collar who the hell is it trying to kill me is it whom I'm thinking I called out for the security and pulled the mask from the face it was Minnie she was wriggling in my hold but the security came on time and I handed her to them I went to Gemini and rested his head on my lap calling the ambulance God Gem why did you do this.I don't know what came into him he started apologizing to me damn Gem this is not the time I said to him I told him to stay awake until the ambulance arrives but the next thing he spoke made my world stop,"I Love you Fourth....."he said I didn't seem to hear anything after that did he just confessed to me he told me that I'm the best thing that happened to him he wiped of my tears that I didn't even realise were falling,"GEM"I held him tighter why are you doing this to me he kept speaking his feelings and I was just hearing him out while crying why the hell is this ambulance not coming fast I felt that his eye lids were getting heavy he closed them as soon as the ambulance came,"Gem wake up please wake up stay awake"I started patting his cheeks but I got no response we reached the hospital and they took him to the OT and I sat down near the door hugging my knees I saw the ring on my finger I kissed it Gem I love you too I do please save him God please I kept praying in my heart.

But then something got up in me this is all because of that bitch I won't let her live at peace not this time I'll deal with her soon for now God please save my husband.
