"What?" I chuckled as I realised what she said.

"Why would you think like that?" I asked, still laughing.

"I- that-" she averted her gaze as she couldn't explain herself.

"To make it clear, I am OK, and I don't think you harrased me. After all, you are my wife. it's your right," I passed a teasing smile, looking straight into her eyes. I don't know how she came to the conclusion that she harrased me. But it feels funny and weird and also comforting that she thought about my comfort.

"Hey, even if I am your wife, and it's my right, it's wrong to force you for anything and do anything without your consent, and this applies both ways." She glared at me this time.

Did she misinterpret my words? 

"For your information, I won't force myself upon you so you can be rest assured. And do you really think you can force me for something or harras me?" I say as I scan her up to down.

"You know I never do anything without my consent Mrs Diya Siddhant Singh Raizada." I smirked . She blushed as she registered my words and understood the meaning.

"You mean you wanted to -" she stopped midway.

"Wanted to what Rose? Complete the sentence." I say as my eyes stop at her lips.

"Nothing," she got up from the bed and tried to move past me, but obviously, it's not that easy. I grabbed her wrist and stood up.

"Be brave and complete the sentence, Rose." I said, hoping she would complete her sentence.

"I forget," she blurted out, trying her best to avoid looking at me.

"Come on, be a man," I said as I knew she would definitely be provoked.

"What do you mean by be a man? Do you think only men are brave enough and women are not, so you think I can only complete my sentence if i can be man enough?" She glared at me this time. I knew this would work.

"You can say that." I said, trying my best to stop my smile from showing up.

"I can't believe this. I never knew you thought like that." She scoffed. I can see she is disappointed by my words, but what can I do? I want her to complete her sentence, and there is no other way.

"If you don't think so, then prove me wrong wrong for once and all." I tried provoking her more.

"I was asking if you wanted to kiss me. " She finally blurted out. And I finally smiled.

After seeing my smile, I can say from her expression that she understood what I did.

"You plotted against me?" She said, pointing her finger towards me from her other hand as I was still holding her one hand.

"No,"  I shook my head, still smiling.

"Stop smiling." She glanced at me as I did what she said.

"Yes," I spoke all of a sudden, which confused her. I could see she raised her eyebrows, which she did often when she was confused.

"That's the answer to your question." She looked surprised at my confession. Maybe she didn't expect me to admit it or be so upfront about it.

"Then why didn't you?" Well, this time, I didn't expect her to question me further about this topic.

"Because there was a chance you would forget it. You told me it would be your first kiss. It must be special for you, and I didn't want us to share a special moment when you are drunk along the fact that you may not even remember about it." I spoke honestly. Though there are things that I am not honest about with her, that didn't mean I would lie to her without any reason. She told me misunderstanding makes relations shallow. I didn't want that. I didn't want her to be insecure or think I didn't want her. Though I know her mind doesn't work like that but even if there is one percentage chance that she may think like that, I would prevent that from happening.
