CHAPTER 13

After his confession sunk into her head, Amreen blushed. Faizaan is relieved to see her reaction. He held her arm and pulled her closer. Amreen closed her eyes and a smile appeared on her face. Faizaan held her chin and lifted her face little.

'I love you.' he confessed again. Amreen felt her heart lift. Faizaan leaned forward and kissed her forehead. Amreen's heart fluttered. The more he confessed his love for her, the more she feels better of herself.

Faizaan then hugged her. Amreen's hands trembled as she placed them around his waist. She closed her eyes relaxing in his embrace. She smiled resting her head on his chest. They remained in the embrace until someone knocked the door, they are called for dinner.

*********************

'What do you mean?' Fiza glared at Amreen, after Faizaan had said his mother to not bother about the dowry. Amreen had her head lowered and is hiding behind her husband. She quivered with fear.

'I had gotten dowry when I had come, and so did your grand-mothers.' Fiza shrugged. Faizaan shook his head.

'Ammijan. Whatever happened in the past is past. I don't want anything to do with it. All I know is the present, and in the present I don't want you to torture my wife for dowry. That's it.' Faizaan said firmly.

Fiza glared at Amreen, her breathing heavy. Amreen didn't dare look up at her mother-in-law.

************************

'You shouldn't have spoken like that with Ammijan.' Amreen said Faizaan as she pressed his legs after dinner.

Faizaan looked up from the book he had been reading, 'I know I sounded rude but I had to. Ammijan won't listen other-wise. Also, next time if Ammi speak about this, you tell me.' Faizaan said. Amreen nodded her head.

Amreen sat on her side of the bed, she is looking at Faizaan who slept flat on his back. She smiled recollecting his confession, also she really liked it when he took a stand for her. Amreen felt happy and is relieved to have such a perfect husband. She shifted little. A blush appeared on her face as she lay very close to him. She shifted more and rested her head on his chest. She blushed brick red closing her eyes.

Faizaan woke up feeling her soft body close to him.

He tilted his head little and smiled seeing Amreen in his arms. He moved his one arm and wrapped it around her shoulder. Amreen buried her face into his shoulder feeling shy. Faizaan held her other hand and closed his eyes again, this time with a smile on his face.

After a while, Amreen also relaxed and soon the two fell asleep.

********************

Next day, Amreen missed Faizaan terribly. Her mother-in-law and sister-in-law completely ignored her. Fiza took out her anger by making Amreen do many house old chores. Amreen didn't protest, she did as she was told.

That afternoon Amreen saw a florist selling flowers, she got a red rose for Faizaan. After Faizaan confessed he loves her, she had been thinking of what to do to confess her feelings as well. She felt shy saying the three words directly. The rose will convey her feelings without her speaking the three words.

When it was Faizaan's time to return home, Amreen quickly got dressed in her best Red Saree and left her hair open, just like how Faizaan liked it. She hid the rose behind her pillow and sat on the bed waiting for her husband.

The door of the room opened and Amreen felt nervous, she lowered her head and clasped her palms tightly.

Faizaan as usual had a tiring day, but as his office hours got over he felt his tiredness change into excitement, excitement of meeting his wife.

When he saw, her sitting on the bed, he is bowled over.

'Amreen?' he said placing his briefcase on the bed. Amreen quickly stood up, she forwarded him his night wear.

'I...will...see...dinner.' Amreen stammered nervously. Faizaan frowned, why is she nervous? he wondered.

But before he could ask, she rushed towards the door, 'Please don't touch the pillows.' She said innocently. Faizaan nodded, smiling inwardly. Oh, so she has planned some surprise? He caught her.

Faizaan smiled to himself thinking of her innocence, she is so cute and adorable.

******************

After dinner, when Faizaan came out from the washroom he is surprised to see Amreen standing in front of the door. She had something behind her. He smirked inwardly. She has her head lowered and looked visibly nervous.

'What is it, love?' he asked softly.

Amreen smiled shyly and took out a rose and forwarded it to him, 'I got this for you.' she blushed.

Faizaan smiled widely, he felt touched. He extended his hand and took the rose, their fingers brushed, Amreen quickly retracted her hand feeling shy.

'Lovely.' Faizaan said. Amreen looked up, Faizaan kissed the rose. Amreen blushed lowering her gaze.

Faizaan walked towards the dressing table and placed it on the table.

'Thank you.' he whispered hugging Amreen from behind. Amreen shivered, but she relaxed soon. Faizaan kissed her shoulder and Amreen closed her eyes.

Seconds later, Faizaan scooped her in his arms. Amreen clenched his Kurtha tightly feeling nervous and shy. Faizaan admired her as he carried her to the bed. He made her sit on the bed and leaned forward. He kissed her forehead.

'I love you.' he kissed her cheeks. Amreen smiled. She parted her lips to confess too but couldn't, she found her words lost.

Faizaan held her face in his palms and kissed her gently on her lips. Amreen held his arms and responded to the kiss. Both kissed each other passionately.

This time when Faizaan pulled down her Pallu, Amreen didn't stop him.

Amreen smiled, her gaze lowered as he made her to lay down on the bed. Faizaan rested his palm on either side of her and leaned forward kissing all over her face, slowly and gently. Amreen felt goose-bumps as he caressed her stomach, his fingers pausing on her waist band. She held his shoulder tightly as he kissed her neck and collar bone. His lips trailed down from her collarbone to her chest.

She felt ticklish as he kissed her stomach, she then gasped as he kissed her navel. Amreen felt like she will melt in his embrace. Faizaan treated her very gently, she felt like cotton under him. He liked the feeling of her soft body against his.

As their bodies unite both felt complete. Amreen clenched Faizaan tightly as he held her hips burying his head into the crook of her neck. Both their breathing uneven. Though the unison slightly pained Amreen initially she was happy being united with her husband, the man she loves.

As the pain, subsided Amreen felt elated, she felt pure and complete. As they made love that night, both realized their love for each other only strengthen and increase. Both now, irrevocably in love with each other.

After they were done, Faizaan pulled her in his arms and she buried her face into his chest feeling shy to meet his gaze.

'I love you so much.' Faizaan whispered breathlessly. Amreen smiled meekly, she closed her eyes hearing his erratic heartbeat. Her heart too is beating rapidly.

Slowly their heart rate and breathing returned to normal and both fell asleep. They had the most peaceful sleep they ever had.
