Blinded by love

Chapter 13-Mr.X found

Someone touched my shoulder.I turned around to see Virat,dressed in a red shirt and blue jeans.He looked hunky.He has just told the words I've been waiting to hear for a long time.Mere words can't explain what I feel like,right now.

He moved closer to me,held my hand and said,"You don't have to accept it if you don't want to."He turned and walked away without waiting for a reply.I went behind him,tracing his path.He went to the balcony and stood there,staring at the sky,unaware of my presence.I stood there,looking at him.I didn't know what to say.

"Virat...",I managed to call.He turned to me,avoiding my eyes.

"You didn't wait for a reply.",I continued.

"I know it.I know its gonna be a no from your side....I just couldn't...."

I hugged him tightly,laying my head on his chest.I could feel his heartbeat thudding in excitement,hoping to hear a different answer.

"How could you think I'd say a no,Virat."I said,looking up at him,still hugging.

He was flabbergasted,I could say.He was so much in surprise that he stood there staring at blank space without even responding to my hug.I felt put off,so I pulled back and turned to walk away when he held my hand and pulled me into a hug.I squeezed him a little and he hugged me tighter.There can't be a more safer place in this world.He held me for a long time and my heartbeat sang in rhythm with his.He cupped my face and said,"I wish I had seen you before and spent every moment of my life with you...Holding your hands and caressing your cheeks.I wish I was there on your toughest times to hug you tight and make you feel special.".We were so close to each other that I could feel his breath on my face.He kissed my forehead and held me by my waist.

"Where were you for so long?",he asked.

"Waiting for you....waiting to lie on your chest,waiting for your kiss and waiting to be yours....just yours forever."

He bent down and our lips grazed each others,graciously.The love for each other that we have been hiding for all these days and the yearning for this feel were evident in our eyes.Life can never be just as perfect.I have my Prince Charming,kissing my with passion,a job which holds me upright and my dreams coming true on the other side.What else would anyone ask for.

"Kissy....kissy....kisyyyyyy",Meghna broke in,rolling herself in her wheelchair to the balcony.

We pulled back,startled.I never knew it would be so embarrassing to be caught kissing.

"You are in the balcony,my dear.Behave yourself.",Abishek said,standing behind her.

"Nothing....We were just talking about her work today.",Virat said with a sheepish smile.

"Oh yaa!!Really!!Never knew a kiss could explain more about work than words can."

"Ya,fine.We were kissing,in the balcony....under the moonlight....each of us deeply in love with each other.So what?",I burst out,unable to control their mockery.

"That's what I wanted to hear.So you are in Love!!!!!!!!",Meghna exclaimed.

Virat held my hand and said,"Yes,so madly in love that we can't be stopped any longer."

He kissed me again and we continued from where we left.It was so soft and passionate without being lewd.We stood there kissing for a long time until we had to tear apart and catch our breath to survive.

I looked at him in the eye and said,"I love you Virat."

Before he could respond,Meghna called out,"I'm hungry."

I stomped to her and screamed,"You never eat when I feed you.You are only peckish when I'm....",I stopped,not knowing how to put it in a less sleazy way.

"Yeah,I'm hungry only when you are busy there kissing your boyfriend.I was just worried you'd both get too lovey-dovey and it would become obscene in the balcony."

I blushed in embarrassment.

"So,when and how did your love story begin?"

I sat on the bed next to her and looked up as the emotions rushed to my face.What I feel right now are too much to be explained in minutes.Never can anyone put into words the emotion that love gives you.Its a mixture of emotions and the happiness of getting what each one has dreamt for.For me,its the satisfaction of finally getting what I've coveted for all these years.Finding a boyfriend might be simple to anyone of my age but to me,its a triumph.Its the joy of finding a boyfriend whom i trust with the deepest of my hearts and someone who would sure as hell be with me forever that has left me speechless now.I wish I had the power of speech over this topic.

"Its such a bonny feeling,Meghna.I feel myself floating in air,the butterflies flying around me and my body getting goosebumps every time I think of him.I finally know what it feels like to be truly loved.I have now experienced the doting feeling of being held in my Prince Charming's arms which is the most benign place in this world.My Mr.X has finally got a name.He is so loving,cares for me more than himself,strives so hard to help me reach my dreams and on top of all that,he respects my emotions and morals which mean the world to me.I've never believed in fairy tale endings in reality,but today I'm sorry that I denied it.Don't you think its so awesome to be in love too?",I said,turning to her.But that sloppy idiot was busy snoozing.

I smiled at her,my mind in a collage of Virat.When you're in love,the simplest of all things would seem so gorgeous to you.I cavorted to the hall,grinning like a shot fox.I went to the kitchen and found Abishek making oats for Meghna.

"Hey,I'll do it.Why didn't you call me?"

"Call you?If only you had ears to hear me call you.All you can hear is the repeated "I love you" from your boyfriend."

"Yeah,Abishek.Its ringing in my ears ever since I heard it.I can hardly hear anything else.He has hypnotized me by just telling three words,the three words I've wanted to hear from my only one.And now,I'v heard it.Its pure magic.The sort of magic I've been waiting to discover for eighteen years now.You don't know what you're talking,you don't know what you're doing,its so much fun being like this.In the thought of your sweetheart with not a care in this world.Its just me and him in our own realm,dancing and twirling in each others arms,staring at the feel of love in our eyes,his hand on my waist and my arms on his chest....woah!!Now,that is what I call as love.The fairy tale love....!!!"

I finished my scenario and brought myself back into reality.I searched around for Abishek but he was nowhere in sight.Did he leave mid-way or was he never here at all?I went to my room and found both of them sound asleep.Its my time,then.I silently closed the door behind me and went to Virat's room with the bells on.He was reading something,his back facing towards me.Just as I was about to boo him,he swirled around in his chair and said,"Hey gorgeous."

"Woah!How did you know its me?"

"Cause a sudden rush of electricity passed down my spine.",he said,pulling me to his lap.

I sat down on him and the next moment,we were kissing each other.
