Payal's POV

Akash and I got into an argument at the university, about our student's welfare activity. I'm divorcing this guy!! He was only my ride home at this moment, not like he would let me walk anyway no matter how mad he was at me. I hate the fact that our fights at work still continue to spoil our lives back home. Maybe I should think of switching to a different university for a job.

I sat in the car, looking out at the window, gazing at the sunset saying absolutely nothing. I was too tired to even say anything or worse, make this agreement grow into a bigger one. His hand slowly creeps up onto my things and I slap it off not bothering to give him a second look. He kept trying to rest his hand on mine but I clearly am not having it. I eventually hear a huff from beside me and the car pulled over to the service lane. I looked at him confused, "Why did you stop?"

I asked and turned to look at him, only to find him looking at me.

"I'm not driving anywhere until you talk to me." - He said and again, had the gall to put his hand on my leg. I let out a sigh and let him keep it there. I'm tired. I just want to go home.

I kept my eyes concentrated on the scenery outside the window and only stopped when I noticed that he placed a bag of Mcdonald's on my lap, which I immediately gobbled.

He must have stopped at a drive-through when I was not looking. I turned to look at him, only to find him seated in the driver seat with his seatbelt fastened, and with a rather cocky smirk, no less.

I stop my munching and threw a fry at him, only for him to pick it up and put it in his mouth. I can never truly stay mad at him for too long, especially when he buys me fries.

Arnav's POV

I woke her up and boy was she annoying since I was disturbing her precious beauty sleep but I had to get some cold medicines in her system. And just when I was about to give her the tablets, Scooby rushed to our side. More like jumped onto the bed, lying between us, no doubt scared of the thunder and lightning. I gave Khushi the cold medicine and she & Scooby cuddled that night, leaving me with no one to cuddle in my own freaking bed in my own freaking house. I need justice for myself. I need my personal heater!!

Khushi's POV

I woke up to the sound of rain pattering against the window. Slowly opening my eyes, I checked the time on my phone at 3:02 AM. I felt the arms that were wrapped around me moved and I felt myself being pulled tighter against his chest, almost making me cough into my arms.

"Rain woke you up?" - Arnav mumbled.

I shifted in his arms and turned to move over the far end of my bedside, resting my face on the pillow. "MMHMM." was the only I could mumble and pulled the blanket over my head, unable to meet him in the eye. I ran my fingers up and down Scooby's belly and sigh contently. This perfect moment is etched into my brain forever, and I'm smiling.

(Next day)

Arnav's POV

I woke up to the sight of Khushi coming out of the shower, her hair wrapped with towel and dressed in loose pajamas. Dear god, don't tell me that she took a head bath especially when she had a mild fever last night.

Just when I was about to comment on her stupidity, she sneezed quite loudly waking Scooby from his sleep, who was right next to me and thus, making my point.
