Khushi's head spun as she woke up the next morning. It took her a moment for it to go away and when her vision cleared, she turned and smiled. Arnav was asleep, lying on his chest, holding his pillow. He looked like a baby, looking all cute, and Khushi stared in awe.
Eventually she got up and went to the bathroom. She was still tired and looked at the mirror and smiled. Her hair was messed up and tangled, and her body wasn't the milky white it normally is, but violet-blue. There were numerous hickeys, all over her neck, shoulders, breasts, and stomach. She felt a wave run up her and she shivered, but it was a good feeling.
Khushi was too busy smiling and looking at her body, that she didn't realize Arnav had gotten up and came into the bathroom. He looked at Khushi's body. He looked at his bites all over her and felt bad for what he had done to her beautiful body. But when he saw her smiling, the guilt somewhat faded away and he went up to her and wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her shoulder.
Khushi snapped back to reality and smiled at Arnav. "Good morning."
"Good morning. … Khushi, I'm sorry."
"Sorry? For what?"
"Look at what I did to your body. It's purple!"
"So? I don't care."
"But it's not that beautiful, milky skin anymore. Its all bruised from my bites-"
"It's not bruised! Arnav," she turned and cupped his face in her hands, "they're marks of the love you have for me."
"But-"
"Ssh. Not another word. … otherwise I'll think last night meant nothing-"
"Don't say that. It meant a lot. Khushi, every night I spend with you is just a way to show how much I love you."
Khushi smiled. "I know."
She kissed him on the cheek and stroked her thumb on it. Arnav pulled her in and hugged her and Khushi held onto him tight.
Both got ready and had breakfast brought up to their room. They ate and then ordered up some games and played Just Dance 2 and Just Dance 3 on the X-Box 360 the hotel provided in the room. Khushi beat Arnav in almost every game and the two were enjoying themselves so much, they didn't realize when time passed and it went into the evening.
Arnav's laptop was on and it was ringing. He paused the game and looked at his laptop and saw that it was Anjali calling from Oovoo.
"What the," and he went to his laptop.
Khushi followed him and Arnav sat down in a chair and Khushi went behind him and wrapped her arms around his neck. Arnav took the call and saw his Di.
"Di, what's up," Arnav said.
"Nothing, just wanted to talk to Khushi."
"Me," Khushi asked.
"Aww! You two look so cute! Let me get a snapshot of this," and she did. "Aww! How cute!"
"Di, why do you need to talk to her," Arnav asked.
"Ugh! None of your business Chote."
"Um… okay…?"
"Now go so I can talk to her."
"But-"
"No buts, so go!"
Arnav got up and looked at Khushi, before heading to the living room.
"What's wrong Di," Khushi asked.
"Nothing. I just wanted to ask if you got my note and used those clothes."
"Oh…."
"Well? Did you?!"
