Happy reading <3

Zahran POV:

“Whi—” Before she could complete her words, I leaned towards her and placed my lips on hers. Her lips were soft, soft like flower petals. She froze for a second and guilt rushed inside me. Maybe I shouldn't have kissed her. Fuck!!

Just when I thought to pull away, she closed her eyes and relaxed her body. Seeing her giving in, I started moving my lips gently, sucking her lower lip. She did the same with my upper one. The moment felt like heaven to me. It was so dreamy.

Her hand moved from her lap to the collar of my shirt and she fisted it. That's it. The control I had on myself flew away. Still kissing her, I pulled her body towards mine, leaving no space for air between us. She sat on my lap, straddling me.

My right hand went inside her hair and fisted it not so hard yet firmly and the other one rested on her waist giving it a squeeze. Losing myself in the kiss, I was enjoying every bit and piece of the moment. It was our first kiss. I only came to my senses when I saw her struggling to breathe.

I broke the kiss immediately and rested my forehead on hers. I saw her opening her eyes. Her chest was going up and down and she was panting heavily. She was done by the one kiss only. What will happen when I will…

“See, your hiccups are gone.” A smirk was dancing on my lips while I teased her. She was still trying to normalize her breathing. Sensing my teasing tone, her cheeks turned crimson in color immediately and she hid herself in my chest.

A laugh bubbled out of my chest at her cute antic. Fucking adorable.

“Should we try again?” Not getting enough of teasing her, I asked again. I got a muffled ‘please naa karein na’ in return. Putting my arm around her body, I pulled her more closer to myself.

Sighing in content, I closed my eyes and enjoyed her presence to every tissue in my body. Just last week, I was yearning for her presence in my life and was praying to Allah to have her and now she's here with me in my arms.

My chain of thoughts break by her loud yawn. Chuckling at her cute antics, I separated her from me and cupped her face in my big palms. “Ready to sleep?” She nodded her head and immediately got off my lap as if she were waiting for this moment.

She moved to her side to sleep but before she could, I pulled her towards me making her fall in my arms. “W-what are you doing?” She asked.
“Going to sleep.” I replied.

“Like this?”

“Yes.”

“I will sleep on my side. Leave me.” She wriggled in his arms, trying to free herself. “Never. Ye hath meine chorny k liye nahi thama.” Her heart ricocheted, I could feel it since she was laying so close to me. It made me chuckle under my breath.

I had the same effect on her as she had on me.

“Sleep like this only.” I told her in an authoritative tone and yawned. “Goodnight, butterfly.” I gave a peck on her head and closed my eyes.

My eyes fluttered open when I felt some movements around me. Opening my eyes, the first thing I saw was my butterfly trying to get out of my hold. “Trying to run away, butterfly?” I asked in my heavy sleepy voice. Her doe eyes found mine and my heart melted like a popsicle melts in summer. “Neend nai aa rhi, Z.” She cutely replied, making me want to kiss her over and over again.

“Get up, baby.” Ordering her, I sat up on my seat and she followed me immediately. “Are you only not feeling sleepy today or it happens daily?” I asked her since I clearly saw she was not in the mood for sleeping. “Wo.. I used to read at this time and often sleep late.” She nervously confessed.

“Hmm.. So now what do you want to do? Do you want to read a book?” Her eyes lit up immediately which made me fall in love with her again. She, immediately, nodded her head. “Do you want me to bring your book here from your room?” On hearing my question, she became immobile for a second then gulped lightly.

“I will do it myself. Don't bother yourself.” She said cautiously as if I caught her commiting a crime. “Hey, it's ok. I will bring it. Just tell me which book.” A defeated sigh left her lips. “Haunting Adeline. A black color book with uh.. picture of a skull and red rose. Hehe..” Feeling her hesitation, my curiosity piqued. What kind of book will it be? Let's find out.

I exited my room after telling her I'll be right back and headed to her room. Entering inside, I switched on the light and made my way to her bookshelf and looked for that book. Finding it in less than a minute, I observed it. It had a skull and red rose on it as she told me.

Was it a horror book? It must be

Was it a horror book? It must be. It's name was also Haunting Adeline. Yeah, it must be a horror book.

Not helping my curiosity, I decided to open it for figure out. I was on the verge of opening it just then I heard the door opening sound. Turning around, I saw Ayat standing in front of me with my phone in her hand. “Waqas bhai has been calling you for last five minutes.”

Taking my phone in my hand and giving the book to her, I cut off his call and clutched Ayat’s hand in mine. “Thank you, butterfly.” She smiled sweetly. “You are welcome, Z.”

Reaching our room, I settled her down on bed. “I will be back in a few minutes.” Giving her head a peck, I rushed towards the balcony of my room. I had to take his call because I knew why he was calling me. I dialed his number and brought the phone near my ear. He picked up on the first ring.

"Is it done?" Not bothering to greet him, I asked. "Yes." His immediate reply made me smirk. With that I cut the call.
