Chapter 27

"What are you making?" grumbled Krish asking for the umpteenth time.

"Will you wait? God, you are so impatient," asked Radhika.

Krish identified the leftover ingredients on the counter and suddenly he came up with a mischievous idea. He took the egg from the counter and suddenly snuck up behind her.

He suddenly threw the egg on her creating goop on the back of her dress. Radhika shrieked at the sudden impact and turned around in horror. Her expression morphed into a challenge as she grabbed the whipped cream and grabbed him by his shirt and started spraying it on his hair.

Krish was laughing and before they knew it, they were having a food fight.

Suddenly Krish took the flour and threw it up in the air and it came showering down on both of them like rain drenching two lovers in a garden. They both were panting and were at a loss of breath due to all the running around in the kitchen.

Krish turned to look at Radhika and she looked back at him, her vision clouded with flour but she could see him. His hair covered in whipped cream, his shirt with chocolate sprayed on it, and flour drenching both of them. He looked back at her. Her dress was covered with splotches of sugar and flour and her brown hair even richer because of the chocolate dripping from her.

She steps closer to wipe the flour off his shirt. "You have flour on your sh..," Radhika was cut off by Krish stepping even closer which left a little gap left between their faces. He looked her straight in the eyes and she looked down.

"Look at me," he said whispering.

Radhika wasn't prepared for the intensity of his eyes even though she should have mentally prepared herself for this day. Her fear was mixing with her attraction for him. She grabbed a cloth and began to dust the flour off but he stopped her hand.

They were now sitting on the stools against the counter and he said something which caught her attention. Krish used her nickname.

"I love you Radha," he said.

Radhika dropped the cloth she was holding due to the sudden shock she was feeling. She looked up at him and her breath hitched. The trepidation they both were feeling could literally be so obvious to any outsider.

The words didn't even take effort before they just came out.

"I love you too," she whispered.

He grinned and she looked down blushing.

His hand cupped her cheek almost instantly and with one hand he yanked her to him and she bit her lip and suddenly she did something she thought she'd never do. Radhika gripped his jeans because she couldn't control the sensations she was feeling.

Krish leaned in closer and suddenly his lips pressed against her jaw, her ear.

Radhika let out a huge sigh as if a weight was being lifted off of her. She relaxed and loosened her grip on him.

"What are you feeling?" he whispered as he kissed her ear again.

"I just can't explain it." Radhika was breathless as he continued to kiss her, now kissing her eyes and forehead. As he was about to move to her nose, she continued to talk, barely being able to articulate her thoughts.

"When you touch me it's like... Every inch of my body is dissolving. I'm practically melting." she said.

He smirked and his lips went to hers and she gasped as his hands went behind her back and her hands went to his shirt, feeling his abs and touching his sculpted body. His chest pressed against hers and he nudged his nose against hers.

"If I don't stop," he said trailing off, groaning softly.

"Then what?" she asked as her hands knotted in his hair.

New sensations were being evoked inside both of them.

"Then I might go nuts," he said as he traced her cheekbone with his finger as she pulled him in again while shutting off the light of the kitchen as his hand slid up her dress.

Awaited moments!

Krish looked around the Malhotra house excitedly and gazed at the decorations and the banner that read, 'Welcome back Krish'

The food had been specially catered from Nirvana, courtesy of Radhika. Speaking of Radhika, after what happened last night, she packed him the Kheer she made for him and they both left because of their dirty clothes and because of a certain. Well.. incident.

Krish still smiled thinking about how he had to sneak back home and wipe off her lipstick marks from his cheeks as well as his shirt. Last night was so full of fervor that both of them couldn't erase it from their memories.

The party had been a surprise for him but he was as happy as he was about the party, his eyes were glued to only one girl who was busy talking to Shanaya and Nivedita while laughing about something.

His staring session was interrupted when Shivaay walked up to Radhika and wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her cheek.

Krish froze and before he could walk over to beat the crap out of his brothers, his mom took the stage and took the microphone from the DJ.

"I have an important announcement to make! May I have everyone's attention!"
