(A/N - I tried my best to delay the plot by adding in sweet moments but it's gotta end somewhere right? so sorry in advance now no more spoilers)
It was pretty difficult to convince mom for this but we needed some time alone. It's become almost impossible for me to sleep without her presence and hence here we are while she is changing into her night outfits , I'm just laying on the bed waiting for her, to fulfill my almost a month's longing within 2 hours..
I stare at my ring in disbelief and imagine all sorts of things we'd do after our marriage in our happily ever after.
Ruby steps out in her wet hair and her perfect night outfit making me already crave for her touch.
She hardly comes closer when I get up to take her into my arms , her wet hair welcomes my naked chest while I helplessly wait for her to speak, she just hummed and lazily put her head on my chest.
I slammed myself on the bed giving her a grumpy bounce back and she chuckled at me.
My fingers unstrangle her hair trying to get the peaceful moment that had been missing since more than 2 weeks now .. oh how I miss this.
Ruby's pov -
Ruhaan .. your touch gives me a sense of security, a sense of safety that I have always failed to provide myself. But I will have to die with the secrets I've withheld from you since I've entered this house.
How difficult it has been for me to survive through the fact that you were to do something with my dad the day he died. That you are at the end of the day Rathore's son , and that surname makes my heart ache to the core. I may have forgiven you with all my heart but sometimes things are related to more than just one person.
Our company members who have been waiting to spy on your family to check on you , they would never accept the truth the right way , to them you're a murderer and no matter what I say they..
"Bunny what's wrong?"
"Just.. thinking about you" I lie and snuggle myself deeper into his neck , his fragrance making me weak and moreover guilty. I can't help myself as a lone tear escapes my eyes and reaches onto his chest.
He grabs my face gently and stares into my eyes , sensing the anxiousness and asks nothing. How can a man be so calm and peaceful? How is he restricting the questions in his heart? What is he thinking?
And soon enough he kisses my forehead and hugs me back as an assurance.
In an instant my tears fade and I find my home in this hug right here.
"So , let's lighten up your mood shall we?"
"Um okay" I reply knowing that nothing could make this guilt pass away.
"How about your favourite alfredo with extra extra cheese and extra extra corn?"
My smile gives away my hidden happiness on the thought of an extra cheesy pasta and I nod in a yes.
"Or maybe .."
"Maybe?" And I look into his mischievous eyes glistening with the urge to do something else.
"Maybe.. you can have more than that on the menu my love?"
"Oh is it?" And I smirk at him knowing very well what he meant.
"I mean you have a choice
An extra cheesy and corny pasta
Or an extra horny and sexy husband?"
I look at him intensely expecting a kiss but in vain.
"Maybe my extra horny husband could use his skills to convince me instead of just yapping things that he can't do."
Immediately he pulls me in by my waist almost colliding as I sit on his lap while he savours my lips. This kiss , how I wish it lasts forever.
He breaks the kiss to look at me "Things I "can't" do?"
I smile at him sheepishly as he slams his lips on mine restricting any more communication, his hands creep into my bra making me lose control.
The warmth of his hands make me wanna submit to him , but we hardly have half an hour left.
"Is that enough?"
I seem to be speechless at the moment as the kiss intensifies everytime he decides to comment something. His touch makes me wanna commit a sin tonight and I will not hold it back anymore.
The kiss turns rough , goosebumps cover my skin as his fingers come across my lowers and his movements make me gasp for air. As he gets my chest naked it seems hard for me to have control on my senses.
I loose my consciousness and drive into the moment finding ourselves licking and teasing each other and soon enough as always we were brought back into our conscience by a phone call. Definitely his mom I suppose.
The phone stops ringing in a while and we still have a hard time breathing fast , our hands still not leaving each other's skin , our eyes still speaking in a language that none other would know and our lips still trying to get closer knowing that the moment was not gonna pause for any reason.
He caresses my hair as I shift from his lap to the bed and he picks up the call to speak to his mom.
Flashbacks take over my mind , I have lost my mind , I'm blank and I don't know what to do , my eyes shut down making me doze off to one of the best sleepy night.
Ruhaan's pov -
"Yes mom , I'm coming don't worry, and you know you should stop interfering with my moments with her , afterall you never know what the next day brings in for you."
I complete my conversation with her almost excited as before to get back to my wifey only to see her dozed off, with her arms covering her chest and her legs folded to her tummy. Nothing could beat this view of heaven right now , that's my Queen.
I tuck her in the blanket and after a last glance at her peaceful sleepy face I decide to dress up and go out before mom calls me back.
Next morning -
Haven't had a time to talk to my sweet lady since morning and these people have no other business than getting me dressed , convincing me for makeup knowing well how much I hate it , like really?
Yet all I can do is sit here and listen to their orders cause according to them I have no say in my own wedding.
After 4 hours of nagging, dressing and dancing I find myself on the stage waiting for that one prestigious moment where I see the love of my life in the world's best outfit.
Ruby's pov-
" Mom enough can I have my privacy now please? " I scream at my mom who had been convincing me to put up a tons of safety pin in my dupatta to attach it to my oh so deep neck blouse. It's my wedding why can't someone just give me space.
I shut the door and sit back to take a deep breath. "Relax darling it's your own wedding right? Calm down."
The 15th call for the day get's ignored as I am deep in thoughts by myself. I call back on the number soon enough to be welcomed by yelling noises
"Didn't know that you'd sell your self respect to that man Ruby , you're a disappointment and a disgrace to be the daughter of that man who gave this company it's shape."
"Not another word sir. I understand what you've been thinking of this whole time, but I have nothing to prove you anymore , it wasn't Ruhaan's fault."
"Definitely Ruby , you can be blind in love but we can't, this is the last message we can give you , do NOT get into this marriage or you will be a widow for life."
The phone hangs up and falls on the bed , the last sentence fills my heart with cracks and my hands shiver like my soul on the thought of loosing him.
