My Solace

Part 15: Healing

The whole day was spent well. Though Ruchi had to force Samridh to do a few activities, he enjoyed all of them. He was too happy that there was someone for him. Who cared about his happiness. Who cared about him.

The more he looked at her, the more he admired her. He can never get over the fact that this beautiful human being is his wife.

For the first time, he was enjoying himself without any guilt. Without any worry for the future, without any worry for work.

He felt like a child,  a happy child.

She was bringing that inner child out of him.

It was in the evening that they decided to go home. They were tired of the activities and strolling in the park near the lake. They chose to dine out.

And the task was to find a good restaurant. After comparing the reviews, fortunately, they found a good place with a great ambiance and a peaceful environment. Exactly what they wanted after a long day.

Ruchi went through the menu but couldn't decide one thing. She immediately passed the menu to him, telling him to order for her as well.

Chuckling at her sulking behavior, he ordered for both of them and they savored the taste of Indian cuisine. It was a perfect balance of spices for their taste buds and they were sure the restaurant was added to one of their favorites.

They walked out hand in hand for another stroll. It was a picture-perfect place and Ruchi made sure to click some of the best pictures of Samridh. But that stupidly innocent man didn't know how to pose. And Ruchi had to fix that too. Her husband was very much un-photogenic. But still, Ruchi wanted to capture that charming smile of his.

Samridh posed for the photos and finally got some good photos clicked. He clicked some of Ruchi's pictures too. Well, his wife was magazine cover-worthy, she absolutely looked stunning as she posed for pictures.

The lavender kurti she wore was complimenting her, she paired it with white cigarette pants and a white ruffle dupatta. She had her oxidized jewelry on. A sight to behold!

Samridh was fascinated by the moment she turned her head a little and smiled at the camera. The gentle breeze caressed her hair. She was looking mesmerizing in the perfect shot. Samridh was sure that his eyes captured a better picture of hers than her camera.

After a few more selfies, they finally decided to return home. Their home.

It gave them peace to be back at their home, after freshening up Samridh fell on the bed beside her. He quickly rolled to her side, hovering above her.

"What are you doing? " She asked nervously.

"Just trying to say thank you" And before she could understand he pecked her head gently, "Thank you for such a beautiful day. I have never enjoyed so much before". He moved down kissing her left cheek, "Thank you for showing me what I was missing in life" Ruchi giggled as he rubbed the tip of his nose on hers and then slid towards her right cheek. "Thank you for being my wife"

He rested his head against hers.

She was healing his inner child.

Ruchi cupped his cheek, "Samridh ji, aren't you the cutest? " She pecked his forehead, "I am glad that I got the best person as my husband".

Samridh lifted his hand to hold her hand on his cheeks but her dupatta slid from her shoulders. The square neck sleeveless kurti moved too showing her cleavage. Samridh immediately turned his head to the other side. His palms fisted as he tried to get the image out of his head.

Ruchi looked at him, his eyes shut. She knew he wanted her as much as she did. She pulled his face towards her more.
His eyes were still closed and she squeezed his cheeks calling him in a whisper, "Samridh Ji"

Opening his eyes he made eye contact with her.  The look of desire, the look of need was reflecting in both of their eyes.  Samridh's eyes refused to move down her face boring continuously into hers, the warm breath was fanning on each other's face. His one hand rested beside her head while he grabbed her waist the moment she brought her face closer.

Samridh inhaled her fragrance, she was intoxicating and the position they were in did no justice to his heart which was beating rapidly. He gulped as she moved even closer nibbling on his lips. She pecked his petals and then nibbled again.
Samridh held her tighter losing himself in the kiss.

The moment soon turned vigorous, it turned needy. He switched their positions pulling Ruchi above him. His hand roamed on her body in his strong embrace against his chest.

Samridh's hand reached the hem of her kurti. Before he could pull it up Ruchi bit on his lower lip, "Oh! Princess" He grunted narrowing his eyes at her. She giggled pecking his lips.

He pulled her again in a vigorous kiss putting his palm behind her head. She clutched his shirt returning the favour with equal fervor. She pulled his shirt apart opening his shirt buttons, her hand caressed his chest above his heart.

Samridh turned them around again, he held her wrist resisting her to move. The kiss broke off as their foreheads stayed glued. "Princess!" He breathed heavily.

He stared into her eyes matching her gaze, "It didn't mean no" She whispered breathing heavily.

He kept looking at her intently for a while, his hands moving down tracing her curves. He held the hem of her kurti again and rolled it over her head carefully.

Her eyes cast down in shyness. And Samridh took his sweet time assuring her, caring for her, and loving every inch of her body. They drowned themselves in the passionate pleasure in the silence of night. They made gentle love to each other.
