I leaned into her, breathing heavily

I leaned into her, breathing heavily. She hugged me tightly, pressing her face against my chest, and I wrapped my arms around her.

The moment was still sinking in.

We kissed.

Like, actually kissed. Not a dream, not a glimpse of my imagination-just pure, undeniable reality.

And Ruh? She was clinging to me like her life depended on it, her warm breath fanning against my damp shirt as she pressed her face into my chest. Her arms wrapped tightly around me, as if she could just melt into my embrace and avoid the world entirely.

Meanwhile, I stood frozen, my hands still resting on her waist. My heartbeat pounded so violently that I swore she could feel it.

I was still in shock.

My lips tingled from the kiss-our kiss. The feeling of her touch still lingered, warm and soft, making my mind spiral.

My arms instinctively tightened around her as if to reassure myself that this is real-she is real.

"Ruh," I whispered, my voice came out as hoarse with disbelief.

She only buried her face deeper, refusing to meet my gaze.

Like I always say-she acts all bold in the heat of the moment, but as soon as things settle, she turns into a shy little kitten.

I dipped my head slightly, my lips close to her ear.

"We kissed," I murmured, my voice still laced with shock. "And it's not a freaking dream, right?"

She cleared her throat, her fingers tightening slightly on my shirt before she mumbled, "Hmm."

She tried stepping back.

But I wasn't letting her get away that easily.

My grip on her waist remained firm, keeping her close.

I exhaled heavily.

"Ruh.....I think I might faint," I mumbled, still dazed.

The moment I swayed slightly, she gasped, grabbing my shoulders to steady me.

And then glared at me, followed by a sharp kick to my foot.

"RUH" I yelped, clutching my leg dramatically.

"Don't you dare, Vihaan Raichand," she scolded, her narrowed eyes flickering with exasperation.

"How can someone faint after kissing his own girlfriend?" she asked, clearly unimpressed.

I gasped, placing a hand over my chest like a tragic movie character, "Ruh, I just freaking kissed you. My poor heart is still recovering."

She shook her head, letting out a small chuckle, "You're seriously a unique species of chimpanzee."
