"Wake up." I heard a voice say. I blinked my eyes open and looked around. I saw Raj sitting next to me and smiling.
"We are here." He said lifting my window cover. The beautiful California. I excitedly shifted around in my seat as people were getting off the plane. I pushed pass Raj and rushed into the airport. I was unfit because he ended up being ahead of me. We got our luggage and headed out of the airport. For fun I decided to look at the valet people who were picking people up. I read each card and came to a dead stop when I saw Raj's name on one of the cards. He came up behind me and scared the living day out of me.
"Look, there's our driver." He said pointing to the guy I was looking at.
"Raj..." I started but he grabbed my hand and we walked to the driver. He didn't let go of my hand either, the second he touched my hand small bolts of electricity entered my body. We walked hand in hand to the limo and put our stuff in the car. Once the black divider between us and the driver was up I looked at Raj who looked very amused.
"Okay, wanna explain what all this is." I said throwing my hands in the air.
"You'll see in a few." He said smirking.
"Raj." I said in a stern voice and crossing my arms at him.
"Meera." He said copying my moves. I pulled out my phone and texted Gina about what was happening and she replied in a nanosecond. She was freaking out over text so I stopped texting her. After a few more minutes of driving the car came to a stop. The driver opened our door and we grabbed our stuff. I looked at where we were and my jaw dropped. It was a mansion. A MANSION! Raj laughed at my reaction and stood in front of me.
"Explain." Was the only word that exited my mouth.
"Meera, this is my house." He said proudly. My jaw dropped again and he laughed.
"You live here?" I said raising an eyebrow.
"Used to, now I live in an apartment in San Francisco. This is the first time I'm visiting in 4 years." He sighed.
"4 years!" I gasped out.
"Haan" he said shaking his head.
"Who lives here now?" I asked
"My parents, sisters, and brothers." He said after thinking about it for a minute. Wait a minute, his parents! Maybe Gina hit the nail on the head with this one.
"Come on." He said taking my hand and walking towards the big house. Again he took my hand, again I felt the bolts of electricity. We reached the doors of the house and he knocked... Didn't he say he lived here? The door opened seconds later and a petite woman stood there with tears stinging her eyes.
"Mera Bachcha" she said placing her small shaky hands on Raj's cheeks. He smiled and tears stung his eyes too. He touched her feet and engulfed her into a hug. She cried in his arms and he looked at me. She released her arms from around him and looked over to me. Then looked back over at Raj.
"Ma, this is my friend... Meera." He said smiling at her. She smiled and the right thing to do was touch her feet like Raj did and get her blessings. She was very sweet and guided us into the huge house. My jaw dropped once again and this time Raj moved my chin to close my mouth. I blushed because I wasn't expecting it.
"Ma, can I chose a room for Meera." He asked his mom
"Haan" she said and walked away.
"Follow me." He said as he walked up the grande staircase. We reached the top of the stairs and a bunch of doors were in sight. I followed Raj as he went to the door at the end of the hallway and opened it up. It was a big open room. I walked in and dropped my suitcase, I walked around it it was at lest 3 times bigger than my apartment. I walked over to Raj who was placing my suitcase on the king sized bed. He turned around and smiled at me.
"Raj, why did you bring me here?" I asked not knowing the intentions.
"Well, I needed a friend to come celebrate my birthday bash with me. All my guy friends can be assholes, your sweet and have an attitude... The perfect combination." He said with a sparkle in his eyes. I felt myself blushing when he called me sweet.
"After all the bullshit I put you through... You still wanted to bring me here?" I asked.
"Yeah." He said smiling. He placed his hands on my shoulders and my body went numb when he touched me.
"Your my neighbor and friend, if you need anything just ask." He said smiling weakly.
"Anything?" I said cocking my head to the side.
"Anything." He smiled and nudged my chin with a smile before walking out of the room. I don't know what the hell is going on with me. At the touch of his skin on mine I lose my senses. When he held my hand multiple times today bolts of electricity flew through my body. My heart skips a beat every time he speaks. My stomach does flips when someone mentions him to me... I think... I think I'm falling in love with Raj...
