Somewhere Only We Go

Chapter 15

Avinash

"I'll make it up to you tonight," I whisper in Kabir's year as he takes out his camera battery to put it on charging. His breath hitches and he gulps. I love how his body reacts to mine.

"What do you mean?" His voice has a tinge of excitement in it and he is trying to hide and failing badly.

"What do you want it to mean?" I whisper in his ear, my hands trailing around his waist. Kabir leans into me, his back pressed into my chest, his ass grinding me and I am instantly hard. I bend a little pressing my lips on his neck and he exhales loudly. He tilts his neck to the other side giving me better excess. I suck at one point and Kabir moans.

"You didn't answer," I say softly my lips still on his neck.

"Hmm...answer...yes..."

I chuckle. "How do you like the night sky?"

"The night sky?" He asks but it comes out more like a pleading.

"Yes, do you like the stars?"

"Yeah, they are pretty to just lie down and watch when it's peaceful around you."

"It won't be peaceful tonight." I plant a kiss on his collarbone.

"Mm..wh..why?"

"Because the noises that come out from your throat are anything but peaceful."

"I can be quiet if I want." He says it like a challenge.

"is that so?"

"Yeah."

"Then we will see tonight, how quiet you are when I fuck you underneath the stars."

I kiss his temples and then leave him to check if everything is in order.

I wasn't planning on working this week but something came up that I need to take care of. One of our authors was due for an interview with a literary magazine but then she left without saying anything two days ago, no one could get to her until her agent tracked her down and figured she was in Goa. My team tried to get her to do it via Zoom but she refused, reasons still unknown. It could be a tantrum and on any other day I would have been pissed but being in Goa with Kabir has helped me in more ways than one. The magazine was going to call the whole thing off but we needed that interview. Thankfully Suchita caved in and said yes to do it in person in Goa when I agreed to fly her down. I thought it was all sorted then she demanded new head shots, apparently she wasn't happy with the previous ones.

So I asked Kabir if he would do this, and he agreed, it goes beyond his contract so I'll have to ask Sonali to add this to his account.

An hour later when we are on our way, Kabir turns the radio on and a Hindi romantic song starts playing. I don't know the name but the lyrics, 'tujme ou' khuda mein koyi farq naa jaane' made me look towards Kabir, he was looking outside the window. I grab his hand and entwine our fingers together. He looks towards me and smiles.

Next comes the song Meherbaan from Bang Bang, I only know this because some of my staff are obsessed with Hrithik Roshan. Kabir comes closer and puts his head on my shoulder and for the rest of the way he stays like that.

"Avinash, hey!" Suchita hugs me as we enter the resort I booked for her.

"Suchita. How was the flight?" I say pulling out of her embrace. Kabir is frowning.

"Good, thank you for business class by the way," she says.

"No problem." Her eyes shift to Kabir.

"This is Kabir." I place a hand on his back, "he is a photographer and my boyfriend."

Kabir looked at me with surprise like he didn't think I would introduce him as my boyfriend.

"Nice to meet you, Kabir." Suchita extends her hand and Kabir takes it.

"Nice to meet you too."

"So where is she?" Suchita asks me. "Let's get this done with."

"Yeah." We check up with the guy standing at the counter. Harshita Banerjee is a bestselling fantasy author, we have sold a million copies and her recent book is already on its second reprint. But today for the first time I am thinking about dropping her after her current contract expires. We will have to see how this interview goes. I was here in Goa so it got sorted easily but I can't always fly people to take care of her tantrums.

She meets us at the café at the backside of the resort.

"It opens at the beach so I can take the full images there." Then Kabir asks Suchita. "Is there anything specific you have in mind?"

Suchita thinks for a minute then shakes her head. "You know what, surprise me, Kabir."

I know what this is about. Suchita is pissed that I didn't let her bring a photographer from her team and then I told her Kabir is my boyfriend. My jaws clench but I don't say anything because I don't want to create a scene and want this interview to go smoothly but also because I trust Kabir to prove his capabilities. He doesn't need me for that.

And he does prove it. Four hours later when we are done with the interview and some of the stuff we shoot for insta reels we call it a day. Kabir also gets some more shots for Harshita to use in the upcoming months. He also gets him some amazing shots for her books. By the end of it, Harshita takes Kabir's contact info and even Suchita praises him even though she does it reluctantly.

[The first song playing in the car was Hum Toh Deewane.]
