Against the odds

Teasings

As the title suggests, it's based on teasing the new couple. ICT teasing Shubman is my favourite genre, so I'm writing it 😂✨

A month had passed since Shubman and Sara started dating. Whenever Shubman was free, he would be texting or talking to Sara. All the while smiling so wide that his cheeks might hurt. His team was sure, he was completely whipped. Well it was not really a bad thing, they enjoyed teasing him anyway.

The team was meeting for a bonding session, where chaos completely unfolds. Shubman was as usual texting Sara, while smiling (read blushing) ofcourse. This was noticed by Hardik and Ishan, who looked at each other smiling mischievously.
"Someone's getting red, isn't it Ishan?" Harry asked rather loudly, gaining the team's attention. The team looked at Shubman.
"Ohh, the new love birds in town, someone's wayyyy too whipped" Ishan said mockingly, exaggerating wayyy in the sentence.
"Stop teasing me guyss " Shubman said, now all red with embarassment
"We didn't take your name though, did we?" Jassi said joining in the teasing
"Not you too!" Shubman was not expecting Jassi of all people
"But he's right Shubman, it's too visible. You're whipped " Virat was the one who spoke this time
"As if you looked any better when you were dating Nush" Rohit retorted clearly not wanting to tease the boy
"You to don't say only, you used to be so scared of Yuvi paa catching you dating Rits " that was sir Ravindra Jadeja
"Guys, we're supposed to tease Shubi " ishan said, trying to catch their attention
"Well, we might get a better chance when they're together you know?" Jassi was too smart sometimes, well he was smarter than most in the team.
"Such a smart suggestion Jassi " Hardik's eyes beamed with the idea.

Uh oh, that was what Shubman's brain had shouted, this didn't look good. Not at all. Everyone in the team looked way too pleased with the idea. Even Rohit bhai and Virat bhai, he was doomed
That's why when Sara called to say she's coming India next month, he didn't look happy, trying to stop her citing the bad weather. Sara ofcourse told him he was being stupid and cut the call. Why wouldn't Sara listen, was what he asked himself. Then he realised she didn't buy his stupid reasons. Oh, what embarassment awaits them.

A month later
Shubman was practicing like always, while Ishan's phone ringed. When he came from attending the call, he was smiling mischievously at him. Shubman was busy practicing so he shook it off. After the practice, he sat on the bench, drinking water. That's when he found his eyes to be closed by a pair of hands

"Huhh? Who?" Shubman uttered. It didn't seem like anyone's hand from the team. They were soft and feminine, almost like... No way.
"Sara?" He said still unsure
"Hiiiiiiiii" Sara greeted enthusiastically removing her hands and smiling at him, and giving him a hug
"Weren't you supposed to come tomorrow?" Shubman said still
shocked but reciprocating the hug
"Well, I decided to surprise you"
"Ohh"
"Aren't you happy?" Sara asked breaking the hug
"I am, I am happy" Shubman said giving his dimply smile. He was happy to see her, but when he looked back he could see ten pairs of eyes looking at them, smiling mischievously. This was going to be traumatic.
" Then why do you look like something's bothering you?" Sara asked tilting her head to the side
Shubman smiled at her cuteness
"Nothing's bothering me cookie " he said pinching her cheeks
They looked deep in each other's eyes, feeling happy to see each other physically after a long time.
"Ahm ahmm " they broke their eye contact turning to look at Ishan
"Hi Ishan " Sara greeted
"Hello bhabhi ji " Ishan teased
"Don't call me that"
"Why? Aren't you my bhabhi? You're dating my brother " Ishan said teasingly, shrugging his shoulders.
"Ishan, stop it" it was Shubman
"Yeah, stop it Ishan. Shubi baby wouldn't like if you keep teasing his love " Guess who? Harry ofcourse
"Come on guys, stop teasing the new love birds" that my friends was Surya
"But he's making me feel single" Harry whined
"But you're married Harry bhai!" Shubman exclaimed
"Well yeah, but new couples make me feel single. ALWAYS " Harry retorted back
"Don't change the subject Shubi, the point is you guys are so cute together " Virat said this time, almost gushing
"I know, the way he pulled her cheeks and then they had an eye lock too" Shubman looked at Rohit betrayed
"Well Harry bhai ka pata nahi, but I feel single " said the actual single person there, Siraj.
Shubman was red with embarassment now, blushing hard.
Sara simply hid her face behind Shubman's back, her face red from blushing too
"Stop you guys, you're embarassing Sara too" Shubman said trying to stop the teasing. But this just added fuel to the fire
"Ofcourse, you want us to stop, because Sara is embarassed. Not because you're blushing too hard too" ishan looked in no mood to stop. Ofcourse, he had worked hard to get those two together, he had the right to tease them.
Shubman sent a pleading glance to Rohit. The kind of glance, that looked so innocent Rohit couldn't ignore
"Ok guys, stop teasing them" everybody from the team looked at him betrayed, except Shubman.
"Give the love birds some space" he added on, teasing them. And before Shubman could give him the betrayed look, who ushered everyone away.
Sara finally sat up straight, her face still red.
"That's why you didn't want me to come?" Sara asked
"Yes!" Shubman answered equally red
"You should've told me"
"Even if I did, you can't not come to India at all"
"Ofcourse"
"You need to come frequently to meet me, so I don't miss you"
"Okay shub, you can just tell me directly you missed me"
"I missed you "
"Missed you too" saying this they hugged each other and that's when they heard a snap
"Perfect shot, Harry bhai!!" Ishan exclaimed
"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU ISHAN"
Ishan and Harry took that as a cue to run
