Shivansh Pov:

“Why did you do that?” Kiara asked, crossing her arms as she settled into the car, a playful pout on her face.

“What did I do?” I replied, glancing at her cluelessly while driving through the streets.

“You messaged me in front of Eshani and Yuvaan, and they teased me endlessly. My cheeks hurt!” she exclaimed, huffing slightly.

Her words startled me, and a wave of concern washed over me. “Did someone try to hurt you, Kia?” I asked, my hand instinctively reaching out to gently caress her cheek.

Kiara blinked, then laughed softly, pushing my hand away. “What—No, you idiot! It’s because of blushing! They wouldn’t stop teasing me, and I couldn’t stop blushing every time they said your name,” she explained, her cheeks still rosy from the teasing.

I felt a rush of warmth as my ears grew red, the teasing turning on me now. “Oh,” I muttered, unable to hide my own smile. “Well, I can’t say I mind that reaction.”

She rolled her eyes, but the smile on her face said it all.

"Anshhhhhh," Kiara suddenly purred, her voice dripping with seduction as she ran her forefinger teasingly down my left arm.

I felt a shiver run through me at the sound of her voice. "Yessss," I replied in the same playful tone, feeling my heartbeat quicken.

Her eyes sparkled mischievously as she leaned a little closer. "Would you mind if I kissed you now?" she whispered, her lips curving into a flirtatious smile.

I swallowed, my pulse racing. "Mind? Not at all," I said, my voice barely above a murmur, anticipation hanging between us like a charged current.

Her gaze lingered on my lips for a second longer before we both burst into soft laughter, the playful moment dissolving the tension. She leaned back, the teasing glint still in her eyes. "You're too easy to mess with". she said, shaking her head.

"Only for you," I replied, a smirk tugging at my lips as I glanced her way, feeling the undeniable spark between us grow even stronger.

When she didn’t follow up her playful words and instead turned to look out of the window, something stirred inside me. I couldn’t let her tease me like that and just leave it hanging. Without a word, I sped up the car, driving us to a quiet, deserted spot.

The moment we stopped, I quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and, before she could react, I gently grabbed her arms and pulled her into my lap. The entire move happened so fast, she barely had time to process what was happening.

“Ansh!” she gasped, her eyes wide with surprise as she found herself sitting on my lap, our faces just inches apart.

I smirked, my voice low. “You don’t get to tease me like that and then just look away, Kia.”

Her breath hitched as she stared into my eyes, the tension between us undeniable, the teasing game taking on a whole new level of intensity.

“Ansh, I was just joking,” she stammered, her voice barely above a whisper.

“But I’m not,” I murmured, my tone serious as I wrapped my hand gently around her back, pulling her closer to make sure she didn’t bump into the steering wheel.

Before she could respond, I closed the distance between us, pressing my lips to hers. The kiss was soft yet firm, filled with everything I had been holding back. Her initial surprise melted away as she slowly relaxed into my hold, responding to the kiss with the same intensity, our connection deepening with every second.
