Melting Hearts

Part 65 - Patience is virtue

***Sahana's P. O. V***

I gaped at him in horror for about a split second before bursting out in laughter.

The usually calm and composed and asshole-commander-dictator looking Arush was now looking like a play boy and it didn't suite him at all!!

The clean shaved chocolate-boy looking Arush gaped at me as I continued to chuckle, but he lost it all as I smirked at him and started moving towards him.

"I thought you had a very possessive boyfriend?!" He said, sounding almost shocked, as I smirked and moved right in front of him, till our bodies were touching.

"Well he's more of a comedy than possessive" I said, chuckling at the look of incredulity on Arush's face as I put both my arms around his neck.

"I'm possessive... And strict... Not a comedy" he growled, putting both his arms around my waist and pulling me closer.

"Now you look like a comedy piece than anything Arush" I said, shaking my head in denial.

"How could you possibly know it's me? I haven't gone clean shave in over ten years... From almost the age of 16-17 I've been maintaining facial hair and even my own friends... My parents couldn't recognize me. The whole office staff didn't recognize me without my beard!! How could you?" He asked, looking surprised.

"Well you see Mr. Asshole, the thing is, only you could look at me like that even with the attention of all the women around you... And the things you said.... You really think you'd let someone say all those things to me?" I asked, rolling my eyes.

I saw that look of pride and happiness flashing on Arush's beardless face, to which I asked "what?" as I ran my fingers through his beardless smooth cheeks.

Damn I miss his beard - ah the smooth hair of his beard against my fingers... And now all I get is this smooth cheeks.. he's not the rugged handsome man I fell for.

"You recognized me" he said softly, smiling down at me.

"Yes dumbo... Ugh I miss your beard" I pouted, to which he chuckled.

"I've heard that the guy's facial hair can itch and scratch the girl's face during a heated make out session... And... That when a guy goes down on s girl, then his beard tickles her sensitive spots.. girls usually prefer clean shaven guys for the same reason" he said, matter of factly, though heat rose to his cheeks, but not as much as me though!

"Besharam" I said, hitting him lightly on his chest and trying to sound irritated and disgusted, but as the memory of our second base loomed over my head I couldn't help blush deeper!

"Aap k liye sab kuch ho sakte h ham saiba" he said seriously, looking deep into my eyes.

We looked at each other for a good long while before he moved forward and kissed my forehead, then my eyelids one at a time, followed by the tip of my nose, both my cheeks and finally my chin.

I waited with baited breath for his lips to meet mine, while he continued to kiss all over my face again. His beardless smooth cheeks tingled my face like his beard never did, and yet he never placed his lips on mine!

"Don't tease and just kiss me" I said angrily, earning only his chuckle in response.

"Patience is virtue" he said softly, smirking down at me.

"Not right now... It isn't!" I growled, standing on top toes to kiss his plum lips.

My lips were an inch away from his, when his bloody intercom rang.

I swore loudly, earning his chuckle, but keeping his grip tight on my waist, Arush answered the call.

"I'm sorry to disturb you sir... But there's a parcel delivery for you at the desk" Kinjal's frightened voice issued from the intercom.
