Dheere Dheere Se

Honeymoon

Paridhi's POV:

"No way yaar, I'm not wearing that" I said to Sara, my best friend. Past 10 mins we have been talking over the same thing. The lingeries. Okay fine, me and Rishabh had the most passionate kiss 2 days ago, but that doesn't mean I'll wear sexy lingeries to our honeymoon.

"I'm telling you, he's gonna faint you watching in that" she giggled "Dekh, me bol rahi hu na, leke jaa, pehena na pehena situation ke hisab se decide karle phir tu. But atleast be prepared". Damn the seriousness in her tone, I'm almost convinced.

"Alright alright, ma'am I'll think about it"

"Paridhi, are you done with packing? Damn Paridhi waha rehne nahi jana hame. 2 bags seriously?" Rishabh asked widening his eyes in shock

"Come on Rishabh we are going for holidays itni jagah ghumenge ab kapde toh lagenge na,me kya karu" I replied with pleading eyes.

"Ha ha theeke, aaise shakal maat banao ab. Chalo ye sab hatate hai, we need to sleep early kaal jaldi uthna hai"

"Rishabh~" I put my hands around his arm looking at the beautiful view of Ooty from our hotel room "dekho na kitna sundar nazara hai" He looked at me and said "hai toh sahi" with a hint of tease and I just moved his face on the other side with my hand.

"Alright. Go get changed we have to go to the Rose Garden now".

"Uh, actually I have something for you. Just a minute. Here" I said opening my bag. It was a matching hoodie I brought for him. Alright call me cheesy and cringe but having matching couple clothes has been a dream always and now that I have my own husband ima fulfill all my dreams.

"You got us couple hoodies?" He chuckled

"Yeah... You'll wear it right?"

"Offcourse. Anything for you!"

---

"Damn wifey, you look so beautiful I so don't want to go out with you looking this gorgeous" he cupped my face and pecked on my cheek. Ever since our kiss, Rishabh has been so vocal about his admiration and compliments towards me now that I can't even take them anymore.

"You also don't look that bad, dear husband" I said simling sheepishly.

Walking down the cold streets of Ooty holding the warm hands of your husband just feels so beautiful. Rishabh knows how easily I feel cold so he kept rubbing my hands throughout the time. We clicked pictures and this time there was no photographer asking us to pose in a certain way. I remember how pissed Rishabh was during our engagement getting asked to pose. But today it's just us, in this cozy environment smiling and giggling, clicking random pictures of eachother. The comfort and warmth I feel around the man next to me is all I manifested for and I'm so lucky to have him.

Thud.
Shit. My bag fell down while I was finding my night clothes and boom all my clothes fell, including the lingerie. Rishabh was right besides me and he smiled shyly looking at those. Goshh, it's so embarrassing. "I-that- I didn't mean to get those. I swear. I just, I brought it just like that" I hide my face in my palm trying to think how to get out of this embarrassing situation and just then Rishbah came forward removing my hands from my face. "As much as I would love watching you in those, I'm all okay with cuddling you in that hoodie. So relax. Go get changed, I'll wait outside" saying he kissed my forehead. Can you fall in love with the same person again and again? Well the answer is yes. Because I'm falling head over heels for this man, all over again.

Shit. Why does it have to ruin beautiful moments? Its just been 3 days since we are here enjoying ourselves, roaming around all the Day and cuddling and kissing all the night. I did feel something was wrong but I thought it was just a climate change, turns out I'm on my periods. Ugh. I hate this.

I didn't tell Rishabh about my cramps and we went to see the lake today. I've been so quiet all the day even though Rishabh won't say he was annoyed how I barely took interest in anything today.

"Paridhi" Rishbah bent down on his knees as I sat on the bed "tell me. What happened hmm? You've been so off all the day. Did I do something wrong?" The concerned in his eyes and his soothing tone got my eyes teary. Worst part about periods you've no control on your emotions! "Hey, no, no. Come here" he hugged me gently "Shuush. Relax. I'm here. I'm here okay. No need to cry. Please tell me what's bothering you?" I hugged him back tightly. He caressed my hair with one hand and rubbed my back with other, the warmth of his touch is all I craved today even though I was the one to maintain distance. "I-i am just not feeling well. Sorry" I bluttered out in cry. "Pari. Shushh, relax" Pari. He said Pari. That one word made me feel so much at ease. "There's nothing to feel sorry about that. You should've told me before we wouldn't have gone to the lake today. Acha tell me whats wrong, do we need to see the doctor? Have you taken any medicine?" I nodded and buried my face in his chest "its-its the period" he caressed my face hearing that and brought my face near his "how can I make you feel better? Should I call for hot bag?"

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry for ruining our day" I knew it wasn't my fault but I felt super guilty about having periods on my honeymoon.

"Pari. Please don't blame yourself baby. Come on, lean back and take some rest. I'll bring get us hot chocolate and brownies, your favourite. Okay?" I just blinked at him with my teary eyes.

"It's tasty right?" Rishabh asked and I nodded.

Along with hot chocolate and brownies Rishabh got a hot bag and kept caressing my shoulder. This is all a women wants! Just someone that will understand them and be there during their pain.

"Thank you" I wispered "just tell me when you're not doing good or you need anything. I'm your husband Paridhi, don't hesitate speaking up to me. Please okay".
"Hmm" I had no idea what to say. All I wanted was for him to call me Pari again. He warmth in his eyes while calling my name is all I want right now.

"Rishabh.."
"Hmm?"
"Thank you" I said looking up at him and he just smiled at me.
