Chapter 8 - What About Love

“Why are you colder than winter?

You’re switching the picture

You used to be perfect, yeah

Once you’re hot like summer

But suddenly remember

The reason that you said, bye bye bye”

Chapter 8 – What About Love?

Bipasha’s jaw dropped open in shock. She started to get up to come over to his side to comfort him but his squeezing of her fingers kept her in place. His eyes opened to look at her. It was the first time she was seeing his eyes look so soulless.

“You don’t have to-“      

Neerav raised his palm again. “Let me speak. If you want this relationship to work as much as I do, let me speak. I have to get this off my chest.” Bipasha nodded slowly, squeezing his fingers in show of support, encouragement and comfort. She hoped that he understood what she was trying to do. He gave her a small smile. Letting go of her hands, he pushed himself away from the small dining table and paced the length of the kitchen.

“I was seventeen when I got into a relationship with this pretty girl,” Neerav began. “She was twenty-something at that point of time. I honestly can’t remember much from that part of my life but whatever I do remember is pretty traumatic.” He looked at Bipasha. She nodded at him to continue. “Anyway, her name was Veronica. After months of chasing her and dreaming about her, I finally worked up the courage to ask her out. Imagine my joy when she said yes! Veronica was the typical A-lister. She had good looks, good grades and she was popular. We went out for a few months before we had sex. It was my first time. She was not a virgin but she didn’t laugh at me. She taught me a lot of things – oral sex and other kinky whatnot.

“One vacation, we went on a holiday to a resort she claimed her uncle owned. I left without telling my parents. They were too busy to realise where I was and where I wasn’t. That week was the most hellish week of my life. She seduced me, teased me and left me hanging. At first, it was fun. Every time I had to work to keep myself under wraps, my orgasm was stronger and bigger. I felt higher, more blissful. You get what I mean, right?” Neerav glanced at Bipasha again. There were in two different corners of the kitchen now. While she had remained in her seat at the tiny dining table, he had not ceased his erratic pacing.

Bipasha nodded, saying, “What happened then?”

“One night, she handcuffed me to the bed. Believe me when I say, it was fucking hot to see her dominating me. She licked me all over and used some clamps on my nipples. I was rock-hard and more-than-ready to burst when her phone rang. Instead of ignoring the ringing, she climbed off the bed to answer the phone. After she hung up, she said she had to leave. She touched me and took me in her mouth. I was this close to coming when she scampered off. She fucking left me there. I survived the first three times before I was rescued.” Neerav walked back to the table and sat back down across from Bipasha again. Slouching in the chair, he looked at her face, trying to decipher what she was thinking.

“Uh…no offence but…that doesn’t sound like abuse,” Bipasha said hesitantly.

Neerav gave her a wry look before replying, “You really think I am going to tell you everything?” Bipasha nodded. Laughing mirthlessly, he said, “Oh, no way! I am never going to tell you everything. It was horrific. What I told you seems PG-13 compared to what actually happened.” Bipasha looked at him in disbelief. “You really don’t believe me?” Bipasha hesitated before she gave a nod.

The hesitation was all Neerav needed. He stood up and walked out of the kitchen. Bipasha remained seated. She didn’t know what to think. She didn’t know what to do. She then hear him call out, “I expect you to follow.” Soon after that, he walked back into the kitchen. Without stopping, he walked over to her, grabbed her hand and pulled her along. He led her all the way to his room. The door shut with a soft thud behind her. Bipasha jumped, turning to look back at the door. As her gaze returned to Neerav, she looked around his room.

It didn’t look bad. It was clean. The room was both classy and masculine at the same time. Out of the three walls, one was maroon. It was the one with the bed in front of it. The other two walls – one where the main door to his room was and the other where the doors to his bathroom and walk-in closet were – were a dark grey, verging on black. His bed was big with grey and maroon bed-linen and pillows. This matched the walls of the room. Bipasha’s eyes were wandering to the last wall of Neerav’s room when she caught his eye.

Smirking, he said, “Done staring?”

She felt her face heat up. “Your room is nice.”

“Thanks but it isn’t as if I decorated this place,” Neerav said.

“But still,” Bipasha trailed off. “You have a windowed wall looking out to a beach. It’s breathtaking.” Then, realising that he was naked save for his black boxers with hot pink lips on them, she asked, “Wait. Why are you practically naked?”

“I’ve got something to show you.” He was wringing his hands together.

“What is it?” Bipasha asked before both her hands flew to her mouth when she gasped.

Author’s Note: Yes, that was the second consecutive cliff-hanger. What do you think happened? Why did she gasp? Do you forgive the way Neerav acted in Chapter 6 – Hot and Hotter? I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. This is dedicated to NatalieWest0. Sorry for not posting the dedication to you in the previous chapter.
