What's this relationship called?

(42)

I slid my hand and tried to stop myself from giggling.

I cleared my throat again and I asked,"So,are you sure,you don't apply chapstick?"

His ears were red at my question and he said,"Yes."

I seemed to nod and say,"So,what's your secret of such soft lips?"

He face palmed and hid himself.

I laughed as I had been teasing him.

I heard it was boys who teased but well,here is different case.

He tried to glare and say,"It is not funny,Saira."

I giggled as I said,"Oh but it is."

He seemed to shook and looked at his watch.

His eyes twinkled with sudden excitement and he got up.

I looked perplexed nonetheless,he put forward his hand and asked,"If you permit,maybe I can have you see a surprise,my lady!"

I laughed at his greeting and spoke,"Whatever gentleman.I don't want to disappointed."

His eyes were warm as I stared.

He smirked and said,"I take it as a yes then."

I only said back,"Obviously I don't want to be disappointed,gentleman!"

We ran out of the café and sat in the car that Nikhil had arranged.

I asked him,"Don't you want to blindfold me?"

He shook his head and said,"You really haven't explored the city Saira."

Point taken.

So atleast,I can enjoy the scenary.

The Drive seemed pleasant,my head all wrapped in what could be the surprise.

I could see slight fidgeting hand of Nikhil.I took his hand and he instantly relaxed.

Shyla would have patted me for boldness.

I had been lately taking a lot of bold steps.

Was it because I wasn't afraid?Or had my mind accepted that the worst could happen is he could leave me?

My heart pulsed at the thought and suddenly I felt suffocated.

So,maybe it was bad time but I asked,"Nikhil?"

He was looking out too and he simply answered,"Hmm?"

I was troubled if my question would ruin our mood.

On sensing moments of silence,he turned towards me and asked,"What's troubling you?"

I took a deep breath.The worst he could do was shout or leave me at an isolated road.
