Mira POV
I groan slightly as the light filters in , and cuddle with my pillow. Why didn't Viyaan shut the blinds?
" Mira.."
Hmm. My pillow shuffled a little , and I clutched it tightly. Yesterday was so tiring...
I was this close to beating Viyaan , but he played that marvelous hook shot which worked in his favour and made him win.
" Mira , wake up..."
" Two minutes more," I grumbled , trying to pull my cute, little pillow close. It smelled of sage and that musky smell that is particular to Viyaan....
" Alright. But you're late. And you're making me late for office , too."
A couple of warm hands encircled my waist , and that was when my eyes shot open in surprise, Viyaan being too close to me , so much so , that our breath were mixing and I was gazing into his eyes .
" What , " I whispered , " Are you doing?" His hands were still on my waist , warm and making me more and more awake and aware of the closeness.
" Me ? You're the one whose been cuddling to me for the past half an hour." he said in a hoarse but amused voice. It was then I realised that my arm was swung around his torso , which I immediately retrieved by the way.
" I was asleep." I say in an accusatory tone , sitting up.
Viyaan yawned , " Were you? Or is this just a excuse for cuddling with me ?"
My left eye twitched in fury , and I shove the first thing my hand could get to ,on him. A pretty pillow , in this case. He chuckled and dodged it , and before I knew it , started tickling my sides. Who...who...told him?
" Viyaan .." I said between uncontrollable laughter , " Stop...stop..now.."
He hovered over me , his fingers unrelenting.
" Viyaan...!!"
" Say please, " he said , his voice like velvet and honey. Soft , and rich.
" Ok-k , p-please!!" I nearly cried out , unable to escape from his tickling onslaught. I am a ticklish person , but I have no doubt that it was probably Sam who sold me out. Otherwise , how would Viyaan know this?
Viyaan laughs and lies beside me. My brain was fuzzy with all the laughter and I was roughly short of breath.
" You're so mean !!" I whined , and he props his head on his elbow , looking down on me.
" Who knew you were so..ticklish?"
" Ugh," I tried sitting up , but he clasped my shoulders , "Let me go!!"
" Today 's your first day back at office, no?" he said , smiling adoringly.
Wait , adoringly?
" Yes. New flash , so is your's ."
" Go with me , then."
" To your office?" I joked , " I can be you PA !!"
I watched his expression go cloudy , the humor vanishing from his eyes. I couldn't control the laughter , but my cheeks were aching with being tickled earlier and now this.
" I meant I 'll drop you." he said.
" Oh. What will my Honda city do then?" I tease.
" Sit around and look pretty in our garage."
