He toggled the switch of the night lamp. Turning it on and off periodically. His thoughts were all about her. Was she already asleep ? For he had lost all his sleep. The mere thought that she would be His officially, lawfully, happily married wife had him sleepless. Finally towards a normal happily ever after.

But what was more was the raw untamed attraction that had grown still wild ever since Daadi had asked him to keep his hands off her and maintain a distance of two foot!The fact that she was just a room away in the guest room, made his thoughts wander about various possibilities. But she would be asleep by now. Making up his mind he went out to check on her.

He slowly pushed open the door slightly. He saw a sleeping form on the bed, that he made out due to the night lamp dimly lighting the bedcover. He sighed, as he decided to admire her sleeping form. He took one step forward and decided it would be a wrong idea. With his recent on going battle with his hormones, Totally Not A Good Idea.

He traced his way to the Kitchen. Perhaps some hot chocolate would be nice. He turned left around the pillar when his ears caught a soft ruffling sound. His sensors sprang up, and his body tensed as he stopped right where he was, trying to figure out what was it.He peeped and smiled.

"Caught You" he said placing the butter knife on her shoulder.

Her eyes wide and heart thudding she turned immediately at the sound.

"You! God you scared me!" She panted, her hand placed on her heaving chest.

He snickered, throwing aside the knife on the Kitchen counter.

"My kitchen is under threat, I see. Were you in for some sabotage plan?"

"Shut Up, Shivaay! I am hungry! And I find nothing worthwhile a midnight snack!"

"Hungry, At this hour?" He looked around.

"Oh. Don't you remember, if I happen to wake up at midnight, I am hungry as Fire!" She continued scanning around looking for something nice to eat.

He simpered and took a step closer. Leaning over her frame,"hungry as fire, huh?"

Shocked, she looked up at him, her mouth falling open, and color rising up her cheeks.

"Jism Ki Bhook, Anika" , he ran his hand over his chest, giving her a sexy smirk and then a wink.He snapped her out of her trance. "Care to share what makes you blush so much!?" He smirked, his hand caressing her pinkish cheeks.
