03 MONTHS LATER, HOLI DAY

RAIZADA MANSION - 08:00 AM

A excited Khushi all ready bright and early for colorful festive wearing a simple white-yellow salwar and sat on bed trying to wake up her Kumbhakarna of a husband who just wouldn't wake up. She huffed for umpteenth time trying to wake him: "Arnav baby, wake up! How long are you gonna sleep..." shaking him harder which doesn't seem to get much useful.

Sleepy Arnav turned other side and pulled pillow over his head mumbling sleepily annoyed: "Arre let me sleep yaar let me sleep... in fact you too sleep with me..." and abruptly pulled her in bed with him.

Before Khushi could react she found herself caged in Arnav's arms, facing his bare chest and the heat from his skin washes over her. She was immediately lost in their closeness and snuggled him with a sign and then a sudden thought hits her. It's finally Holi today and they need to get out of bed ASAP!

Thinking mischievously Khushi let out an excited yelp then jumped at Arnav and pushes him onto his back, startling him awake. He growls as his eyes snap open, grabs her closer while at the same time pushing her way, which ends up making them roll over again until they were falling off the bed. Khushi gasp in shock as her back leaves the bed and Arnav tightens his grip on her as thanks to his fast reflexes flipping them over so he is below her when they hit the floor with a loud thump.

Grinning foolishly at his extremely shocked face, she chirps happily: "That was fun, can we do it again?"

He opens his mouth to say something, but nothing comes out. He tries to speak again, but again nothing comes out only his hands tighten on her hips. He ends up staring at her with his mouth hanging open making her giggle.

Reaching up, she put her hand on his chin and shut his mouth: "Stop doing that, you look like a goldfish..." saying as sternly as she can, which only makes her sound like a child more than usual. Arnav grins up at her, making his silver eyes sparkle more and she whines, "Now come on, I wanna start playing Holi!"

Arnav chuckles at her eagerness, almost all traces of sleep gone from his face and body. Khushi gets up off him while taking his hands and yanking him up with all her strength, which isn't very much. He ends up having to stand by himself since she not much help. She gets behind him and tries to push him to move faster: "Come on!" which doesn't really work.
