My Bodyguard

24

"This is nice." Aarav said when I just hung our pictures on the wall.

"I like this the best. You look so cute." I said showing the one we took in front of the house and he gives me a look because he didn't like it because he was smiling too wide.

I love that he smiles.

We have been setting up the house little by little and it was already furnished. I was excited to see new couch and kitchenware.

It's been a month since we've moved and I love it here. I'm happy to see Aarav sleeping comfortably with his legs stretched properly.

The bed is comfier too.

"I look weird."

"You're cute." I said hopping on his back and he cracked a small smile, picking me up and held my legs around his waist.

It felt nice.

It felt good to be clinging on my husband's back in a new home and I am really excited about the couch.

It has a bed inside! Aarav picked with a bed inside so that we could sleep in the living room too!

I never thought a bed could be hidden inside a couch. The inventor is brilliant.

"Aarav-" he hummed, glancing at me while letting me down on the kitchen counter.

The kitchen counter is really big, I absolutely love it and we are having dinner with our gang!

Our first time ever hosting dinner and I am so excited!

I already made desserts yesterday and prepped a few dishes but Aarav is the one assembling them because he thought I would be tired today.

Cooking for 10 is not unusual for me, I have cooked for more and when I said it— he didn't like it.

So, I just let him do whatever he wants to.

"Can I help please?"

"Nope. Stay there." He said sternly and I frowned, watching him cook some of the things that needed to be cooked.

I just watched him but my hands were itching on helping him.

I can never stand watching him work by himself.

"I'm just baking the chicken and making a side dish, don't do that face." Aarav said nudging my head as if he just read my mind but I still frowned at him.

"But you had extra work yesterday and-"

"Ira-" I mumbled a sorry, covering my mouth and he sighs lightly, holding my waist, kissing my cheek longingly.

"What am I going to do with you? You're so soft hearted, love."

"I just don't want you to be tired."

"I am perfectly fine, get ready. They'll be here by 7." Aarav said kissing my cheek again and I glanced at the clock, nodding my head.

I had an outfit prepared but I kept thinking, is it too fancy?

I am really excited for this gathering because I always wanted them to come over but I didn't want to trouble Aarav.
