Falling In Love With You

Part 34

Avneet's sleep was broken by the loud chirping of birds. She yawned and opened her eyes, when the memories of the previous night flashed up on her mind.
Her cheeks were burning up, once again, and she exactly knew she was blushing. On top of that, he was holding her securely into his arms.

She careully got out of his embrace and went to the balcony to see the view.
The sunlight hadn't yet fallen on the mountains which were a bit far, they still seemed dark.

Did he mean that he likes her? Did he really confess to her last night?
Thinking about him makes her heart skip two beats.
Does she get to ask him if he can clear her confusion? But what else was there to clear? He had already said what he had to. Should she go and confess him?

Her chain of thoughts were broken when she felt a pair of hands tracing her waist to pull her closer to his chest.

"Y-you're up?" She asked to not make the situation awkward.

He placed his chin upon her crook.

"Good Morning, wifey," he greeted.

"Uh- I- I wanted t-to ask..." she stammered, once again.

"Why do you stammer? I won't bite you," he said with a light chuckle.

"D-do you really accept me as your w-wife, for the rest if y-your life?" She whispered in a soft voice.

"Come on, don't make me propose you in the morning, when my hair is messed up and I look like a porcupine," he said. "I haven't brushed my teeth either."

Avneet suddenly turned towards him and hugged him. Her eyes had teared up due to happiness. Was she really worth of his love?

"Do you want to hear it from me now?" He asked softly. "But I wanted to propose you in a grand way."

"I don't like expensive way," she said.

"Then, how may I do it, your majesty?" He asked as he caressed her hair.

"Will you take me to a boat ride? I have always wanted it," she said.

"As you wish," he said and softly kissed her hair.

They didn't want to break the hug, but stay like that.
But a legend had once said that you can never have peace if you have siblings.

There was a loud thud from the other room.

Siddharth and Avneet looked at each other and rushed to Abhishek and Vaishnavi's room. Because it was a wooden house, the sound was heard three times more than in cement or tiled floor.

"What has happened?" Siddharth yelled.

Vaishnavi opened the door with messy hair. She looked like a real porcupine.
She was laughing like no tomorrow.

"Y-your brother oh g-god!" The girl laughed. "He wanted to use the washroom when he slipped and fell. The cold tap water fell upon him."

Siddharth rushed inside, to find the older groaning in pain.

"My handsome waist," Abhishek muttered. "Is all broken now."

"How can you be so clumsy dada?" The younger scolded.

Avneet had brought a Volini, she quickly brought it and handled it to him.

Vibha was up too, to find the matter and she had an expressionless face when she got to know about the reason.
She didn't really know how to react.

After some time, they all went to Siddharth and Avneet's room to take a look at the view, as the mountain range was most prominent from their room.

With time, they had tea and breakfast, when they finally decided to roam and look around the place.
Abhishek had gathered a stick from somewhere, he walked with its support.
