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

"Dev Dixit, I LOVE YOU"

To say that Dev was stunned would have been an understatement, for a moment he thought that he was dreaming, the person he loved had confessed her love for him. Various emotions were surging through him, he did not know what to do at that moment. Whether to laugh or cry, jump in happiness or be calm, whether to take her in bone crushing hug or calmly confess his love. All these days he had imagined various scenarios where he would propose her and witness Sonakshi's subsequent reaction to that but this was different in fact it was exactly the opposite of what he had thought off but it felt good, really good in fact.

But on the other hand, for Sonakshi each passing moment felt like a year, she was waiting with bated breath for his answer but his silence was killing her by the moment, her worst fears were coming true and she felt like a fool for confessing her love. She thought that she had spoiled the friendship which they shared, unable to bear his silence anymore she spoke.

"I am sorry Dev, I don't even know what I was thinking. I should have known that there's no match between us. Please do not let it affect our friendship Dev. I am sorry, I have spoiled everything. I am really..." she blabbered but before she could continue she felt a finger on her lips which made her quiet as her breath hitched and eyes widened as she looked at Dev who was looking at her with a smile, he slowly got up from his chair and moving towards her staring into her eyes he spoke in a husky tone.

"Do you always blabber so much or is my presence making you do that Ms. Bose" he said as Sonakshi was lost for words, she did not know what to reply as Dev continued.

"What happened Ms. Bose, why are you quiet" he asked again slowly as Sonakshi gestured through her eyes towards his finger on her lips as Dev said, "Oh I am sorry" and removed his finger as Sonakshi's breathing returned to normal as she got up from her chair, a slight blush had formed on her face as she ducked her head to hide that, but the very next moment Dev kept his fingers on her chin and raised her face up so that their eyes met.

As soon as their eyes met Sonakshi seemed to lose herself in his Dark brown eyes while Dev smirked, happy at the affect he had on her, he slowly moved his hand to tuck the strand of hair behind her ear. All this while Sonakshi seemed to be in a daze as Dev slowly moved his lips head towards her ear and spoke in a husky tone.

"Ms.Sonakshi Bose, I LOVE YOU TOO" he said

As soon as he said that Sonakshi's eyes widened once again, she did not know how to react, it was a moment she wanted to treasure her whole life. She felt like it was a dream and wished that time would stop so that she would not come out of that dream. But then this was not a dream, it was reality and the next thing she did was just hug Dev tightly and hide herself in his broad chest as a smile formed on Dev's face and he returned the hug with equal intensity, both forgetting the surroundings they were in. Luckily since it was still early in the evening there were not many couples around and Dev had ensured that their table was away from the crowd in a corner where both would get privacy.

They did not know for how long they hugged each other when suddenly Dev felt a wetness on his Tee and heard a sniveling sound, he broke the hug and held Sonakshi's face in both in palms and made her look at him as he said.

"What happened Sonakshi? Why are you crying?" he said in a concerned tone as Sonakshi moved her sideways to indicate it was nothing and just hugged him once again but she was still sniffing slightly.
