The morning sun filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. As I slowly blinked my eyes open, a sharp pain throbbed in my temples. The events of the previous night flooded my groggy mind, the club, the drinks, the laughter.

Then, it hit me, I was lying in bed next to a shirtless Arjun, wearing one of his shirts and nothing else. A flush of embarrassment tinged my cheeks as I realized what the situation was. Slowly I turned to Arjun, who was still peacefully asleep.

I couldn't help but let out a groan, my hand reaching up to massage my throbbing temples.

Arjun stirred beside me, his eyes fluttering open. Despite the morning haze, he smiled softly. "Good morning," he greeted, his voice husky from sleep.

I winced at the sunlight filtering into the room. "Morning? More like mourning," she mumbled, pressing a hand to my forehead.

Arjun chuckled, sitting up and reaching for a glass of water on the bedside table. "Rough night?"

I nodded, accepting the water with gratitude. "I think I may have overdone it a bit."

Arjun couldn't help but chuckle at my response. He flashed me a teasing grin, his eyes gleaming with playful mischief.

"An understatement, don't you think?" he remarked, a lighthearted tone in his voice.

"You didn't just overdo it a bit. You practically set a new record for craziness last night."

Still nursing my headache, I shot him a sheepish look. "Well, I may have been a little, um, impulsive."

Arjun raised an eyebrow, his playful expression intensifying. "Impulsive is an understatement too."

With a sly grin on his face, he couldn't resist teasing me about what I did yesterday while I was drunk. He nudged me playfully.

"You know, Angel you went to great lengths just to get me into bed," he remarked, his tone light but with a hint of mischief.

I shot him a puzzled look. "What are you talking about? I don't remember doing anything like that."

Arjun leaned in, his voice dropping to a low whisper. "Oh, come on. The dancing, the shower? It's all part of your master plan, right?"

My eyes widened in surprise. "Are you accusing me of trying to seduce you paithiyam?"

Arjun chuckled, enjoying my obvious confusion. "Well, it certainly seemed that way. I mean, asking me to join you in the shower? That's some serious dedication."

The color drained from my face as my mind registered what he just said. "No I didn't you're just messing with me", I said meeting his eyes.

Arjun just shrugged, "Why would I lie about something like this? You did and I must admit, it was a pretty creative way to get my attention "
