Through The Storm [ An Ishman Ff ]

Chapter 1

Shubman and Ishan first crossed paths in college, where their friendship soon blossomed into a deep and abiding love. Shubman was passionate about software, dedicating himself to web programming and design with dreams of expanding his father’s software company. Ishan, on the other hand, was a gifted athlete with aspirations of becoming a professional cricketer.
Their college days were filled with shared dreams and unwavering support for each other. Despite the challenges of maintaining a long-distance relationship due to Ishan's intensive cricket training, their bond remained strong and unbroken.
Life wasn't always easy for Ishan. There were times when the pressures of his cricket career left him feeling mentally and physically drained. But in those moments of doubt and fatigue, Shubman was always there, a steadfast pillar of support, encouraging Ishan and reminding him of his potential.
Their dedication and perseverance paid off.  Shubman become a successful and respected CEO, while Ishan has made a name for himself in the world of cricket. Their journey is a beautiful testament to the power of love and the strength that comes from supporting each other through life's joys and challenges.
"Shubman proposed to Ishan in a grand gesture, surrounded by both of their families. For Ishan, this moment had been eagerly anticipated, the culmination of a lifelong hope. Overwhelmed with joy, he gladly accepted the proposal. They later exchanged vows in a lavish ceremony, marking the most memorable day of their lives. Now, three blissful years have passed since their joyous union, and they continue to cherish their happily married life together.

Present time

Gill Mension
The chilly breeze and the soft chirping of birds drifted through the open window. In the room, two lovers lay entwined under a duvet, their bodies still warm from the intimacy of the previous night.
Ishan stirred in his sleep, shivering slightly from the cold air conditioned room. Slowly, he opened his eyes, rubbing them to clear his vision. Sitting up in bed, he wrapped the duvet around his chest and glanced over at his husband, who was still asleep. Shubman lay on his stomach, shirtless, his broad shoulders and back marked with the remnants of their passion—scratches from Ishan’s nails.
The sight brought back vivid memories of the previous night, causing Ishan to blush furiously.
He leaned down and tenderly kissed Shubman’s forehead. In a soft, hushed tone, he murmured, "Now you’re sleeping like a baby, but last night, you were a wild beast. You utterly exhausted me. My back is still aching"he pouted.
"Baby, please don't pout if you don't want another round," a sudden voice startled Ishan.
"You were awake the whole time?" Ishan asked, eyes wide.
"Yes, your kiss woke me up," Shubman said, shifting to rest his head on Ishan's lap. "Is it hurting more?" he asked, gently caressing Ishan's back.
"Yes, you wrecked me completely," Ishan replied, wincing slightly but with a hint of a smile.
"But you were the one asking for more," Shubman defended, a playful glint in his eyes.
Ishan hid his face with his palms, blushing deeply.
Baby, don't blush. Now give me a kiss," Shubman said softly.
They shared a beautiful kiss, feeling a deep sense of connection and contentment.
"I'm hungry," Ishan said.
"Okay," Shub replied, picking Ishan up bridal style and carrying him into the bathroom.
"Let's shower together to save time and water," Shubman said playfully as they entered the bathroom.

Dining Room

"Rahul was arranging breakfast on the dining table when Hardik hugged him from behind, playfully whining about something.
"Good morning, bhaiya and bhabi," Shub and Ishan greeted them simultaneously.
Hearing the sudden voices, Hardik detached himself from Rahul and stood at a distance, smiling awkwardly."
"Good morning, " the couple greeted them back with smiles.
Suddenly, a loud crying voice came from Hardik's/Rahul's room.
Rahul: I think Agastya woke up. I'll go and see
Shub: wait bhabi..mujhe jaane do..main lekar ata hu. Waise bhi use apne chachu ke sath rehna bohot pasand hai.
Shub ran towards their room
Rahul: He love babies a lot.
Ishan: No doubt
Shub came with little agastya who was giggling because shub was making funny faces.
"He handed the baby to Rahul and sat at the dining table beside Ishan for breakfast. One by one, everyone came for breakfast.
Mr. and Mrs. Gill: 'Good morning, my dear children.' 'Good morning, Mumma and papa,' everyone greeted back."
"Where is Rahul" Mrs gill asked. "He is in the room feeding agastya" hardik replied.
"Mr. Gill: Shub, today we have to go to an awards show, right? You've been nominated for ' Best Innovation and Technology,' correct?"
Shub : ohh yes dad I forgot it.  please everyone be ready on time ok.
Ishan: shub you didn't told me this?
Shub: sorry baby vo main bhul Gaya tha. Abhi papa nai yaad dilaya. 
Ishan hummed in response
Mr Gill: Ishu beta you are not going for practice today?
Ishan: No dad I have taken break for 2 days. Now IPL is going to start( guys please imagine for the sake of story) so I will be busy so decided to take a break.
Mrs. Gill: Acha Kiya Ishu tune. You have been so busy and exhausted from past days. Take a little break.
By the way ye Abhi kaha hain?
"Jogging par Gaya lagta hai"said shub
Hardik: ye dekho aa gaya
Abhi came towards them
Abhi: Good morning everyone. Ishu bhabi ap ajj nahi jare ho practice?
Ish: nahi abhi 2 din ke liye break liya Hain.
Abhi: Haa ok ok..By the way, you're all supporting the one and only Sunrisers Hyderabad, right?( Pointing at himself)But everyone continued eating their breakfast as if Abhi didn't exist, except Ishan, who looked at him with pity in his eyes."
Abhi: Gajab bejati. It's ok Ishu bhabi. Apko sabka full support hain.(Ishu playing for MI). Main to paraya hu, lagta hai mujhe dustbin se uthaya hai.
Everyone started to laugh 😂
Mrs.Gill ( to abhi) :chal ab freshen up hokar ya aur fir breakfast karle. Tujhe practice par Jana Hain na.
Abhi: Ok maa

After breakfast

Ishman room
Shubman grabbed his car keys and bag, then approached Ishan and cupped his cheeks "Ishu, I'm heading out now. You look really tired, and you've been exhausting yourself with all the practice lately. Please, take proper rest. After last night, you definitely need it. If anything comes up, call me immediately, okay?
Ishan hummed in response.
"And be ready on time ok we have to go for award show. "But no worries, I'll be home early today and help you get ready," Shubman said, smirking.
"Pagal," Ishan replied, playfully hitting Shubman on the biceps.
Shubman pouted playfully. "Now, give me my kiss."
They shared a passionate kiss, a moment of warmth and connection. Shubman then gently kissed Ishan's forehead before heading out for work.
