He smashed his lips onto hers, tasting the sweetness of the chocolate on her lower lip as he started sucking it.

At first, her lips jolted from the sudden action, but after feeling his lips sucking on her lower lip, her upper lip started moving with his upper lip without her knowing , she closed her eyes to feel warmness of his lips. When he felt her reciprocate, he sneaked his hands around her neck to pull her closer. They were both drowning in each other. 

Ruhi, feeling the weight of Veeransh on her, tried to steady herself by gripping the spoon in her hand, but it slipped and fell to the ground with a loud clatter.

The sound startled Veeransh, and he opened his eyes, suddenly remembering what he was doing. He quickly pulled back from her, seeing her panting heavily from the kiss. Internally, he facepalmed as regret crept into his chest.

He couldn't meet her gaze, knowing she would hate him more now and would ask why he did that. Before she could say anything, he got up from the bed and left the room, leaving the confused girl behind.

He walked towards his private office-cum-library and locked himself in. Facepalming, he ran his fingers through his hair.

"What have I done? What have I done?" he muttered angrily to himself.

He sat in his chair, remembering how his eyes had lingered on her lips when she was eating the cake.

"Veeransh, don't you have any self-control? What will she think of you now? How can you act like a teenager?" he berated himself, realizing something.

"And now, after kissing her, you just left her alone in the room without explanation? Great!" He sighed, rubbing his forehead.

****

Ruhi was still reeling from the kiss, sitting on the bed, unable to comprehend what had just happened.

Why had Veeransh suddenly pulled away like he didn't want to do it? And if he didn't want to, why did he kiss her in the first place? And if he did, then why did he leave without saying anything? She wanted to ask him all these questions.

She glanced at her cake and bit her lip. Her lips felt a shiver as a cold wind touched the saliva on them.

She was feeling something different in her chest. It wasn't anger or guilt but something else. She liked how his lips felt on hers, not as soft as hers but warm. She craved more.

She took some chocolate syrup from the cake with her finger and put it on her lips, then licked it with her tongue. As she did that, he came to her mind, and a smile crept onto her lips. She covered her face with her hand to hide her blush.

Evening was approaching, but Veeransh hadn't returned to his room. Ruhi was waiting for him, eager to get answers to her questions.

However, Veeransh had no intention of facing her. All he could think about was what he would say to her when they met. Just then, he heard the honking of cars, indicating that everyone had returned. He sighed, got up, and walked downstairs.

"Yes, do exactly as we planned. Everyone should be informed, no mistakes," Abhilasha was instructing Prakash as they walked inside.

"Arey Veeransh beta, you know we thought of arranging a reception party for you and Tarun next week. We'll invite all the guests who couldn't make it to your wedding. We missed Tarun's wedding too, so let's gather everyone this time. It's Amma ji's idea," Mamta said, gesturing towards Abhilasha.
