Author's POV
**************

"Shub stop being stubborn!"

Right now, he and Shubman is sitting in the back seat as Abhishek was driving. It's been atleast 2 hours since they left that abandoned building behind.

As Shubman was badly beaten, Ishan want him to see doctor first then go home, but older firmly refused, making ishan both concerned and frustrated.

"I'm fine, ish Let's just go home.." Shubman replied firmly.

He moved a little to make his posture more comfortable but ended up wincing in pain.

Ishan glance at him in worry, Even Abhishek who was driving, glanced in the rearview mirror.

"Ishan is right! Shubman, you need to see a doctor. You are badly wounded..."

Shubman's jaw clenched as his eyes remain fixed on ishan. He held Ishan's hand tightly in his grasp as if he'd never let go.

"I said i'm fine...please ish, just take me home, I need to hold you, to feel you safe, please..." Shubman pleaded

Ishan's graze met Abhishek's in the rearview mirror, both sharing a concerned look.

Ishan then looked at Shubman helplessly, his eyes filled with worry for his lover.

"Shub...what if you have serious injuries? What if-" ishan tried to convince again but Shubman cut him off in between.

"Baby please...Please try to understand, Today...I felt like my world ended when They took you away...I thought i'd never see you again..never hold you again...please I just want to go home with you.." Shubman' voice was trembling badly

He took a shaky breath and continued while looking in Ishan's worry filled eyes.

"I promise I will be fine...I just need you to stay with me, i'm tired baby...please I don't want to stay away from you..."

Ishan's heart clenched painfully when he saw just how badly today's event has affected Shubman. He was looking badly shaken by all this.

Ishan raised his hand and caressed his hair gently, making Shubman let out a tired groan. Ishan's eyes softened

"Okay shub, If you don't wanna go hospital, then we'll go home directly but i'm calling Dr. Sehgal..." Ishan said.

Dr. Sehgal is their family doctor and an old friend of Mr.Gill.

Shubman nodded, he just want to reach home as soon as possible with ishan. Today what happened, it left a deep shadow on his heart.

That's why he didn't want to stay away from ishan, not even for a second.

His grip tightened on ishan's hand as if afraid that other will disappear. Ishan patted his hand and gave a small smile to Shubman.

Ishan than took Shubman's phone and called the doctor, after telling him everything about Shubman, he ended the call.

Silence fell in the car but this was a peaceful silence.

Whatever happen today was too much for ishan to take in, both mentally and physically.

And now that Shubman is here with him, ishan felt safe and allowed himself to relax and let the tiredness take over him.

Shubman glanced at his left shoulder when he felt weight on it.

A adoring smile appeared on his lips, when he saw ishan sleeping like a baby, with his head on his shoulder.

He wrapped his arm around Ishan's waist and pulled him more close to himself, ishan subconsciously snuggled to his chest.
