Chapter 54

Ira POV

Arjun put me down on my feet once we reached his bedroom. It was done up in grey, black and cream colored curtains, blankets, floor mats and towels too. The room smelled like him and I could imagine him here, reading a book seriously, working on his laptop or sleeping under those covers. 

He walked closer to me, his chest to my back. I looked sideways at him and he looked at me intensely. He undid my messy bun and the hair fell off on my shoulders. He knows how particular I am about my clips so he showed the clip and put it on his dresser. Damn, he was so considerate. He moved my hair to the side, held my shoulders in his hands slowly sliding down to my palm holding my fingers with his rough manly ones, nuzzling his nose into my neck.

Arjun: So, are you up for this?

He said that and kissed me right where my pulse runs on my neck.I turned towards him in a jiffy and hid myself in his arms while he held me after an adorable chuckle. His hands moving on my back smoothly, because it was a saree my exposed skin around the blouse tingled with his touch

Me: Arjun, I like this embrace, I like your forehead kisses, I like your cheek kisses, I love the spark between us, I love the neck kisses too, believe me when I say this I have good butterflies in my stomach and my body is on fire. Would it be wrong if I say can we put a hold on the next steps right now? 

He separated himself from me and looked in to my eyes 

Me: Arjun, I have been comfortable so far and the attraction, the spark might lead us to next steps very easily but I do not want to wake up next morning and think for even a second that we rushed into it even after a lovely intimate night, that would not be good. So, is it so bad if we wait ?

Arjun sighed stepping back running his hands on his face. I thought he was pissed off but he came back and took me back in his arms

Arjun: Its fine, we can take our time 

He ran his fingers in my hair to comfort me

Me: I am sorry I chickened out in the last minute

Arjun: Happens to the best of us right and I never wanted to put any pressure on you or push you into something

Me: I know, I was thinking I will go visit Meera tonight

Arjun: Are you running away from the situation?

Me: No, not exactly running away, just trying to avoid the awkwardness after this conversation

Arjun: Okay, if you feel that it is going to be awkward then its fine, you can take some space

I nodded and ran to my room, changing my clothes. Arjun dropped me at Meera's place and knocked at her door. Meera opened the door and her smile grew.

Meera: What's up ?

Me: I chickened out

Meera: What do you mean

I proceeded to tell her what happened. Her eyes grew by the time I got to the ending of the story

Meera: Its okay to chicken out Ira. Happens to the best of us

Me: I wanted it to happen okay. I loved the embrace, his kisses and the spark we had. I thought today was the day but I was not scared about intimacy as this was too soon

Meera: Then ?

Me: I was scared that if it gets done, and if I am bad at it then he will get bored and realize we I mean me and Arjun wont work out together or what if it happens and he suddenly loses interest

Meera: Oh god Ira, you are so silly. About you being bad at stuff, how would you know you are bad at it until you do it? I am not forcing you to do it of course, I am just saying, just because you were with a jackass who was never able to make you hot, bothered and get that squibble in the pit of the stomach you should not feel insecure or be so scared that you reject something worth giving a chance
