Ek Duje Ke Vaaste

Part 25

Everything about falling in love felt like a fairytale for Khushi, of course she wasn't sure what she felt for Arnav was love yet, but she knew that she liked him a lot, and she felt butterflies every time she looked at him.

It was like she had always imagined, the giddy type of feeling, the endless smiles and blushing and to make it better, the both of them were in the same class, seated beside each other.

She was really trying to concentrate on what the lecturer was saying but her mind was busy dreaming about the future, how it was going to be like, what she was going to do with him, what kind of dates they would go and so many other things.

He shifted of his desk slightly and in that motion, his arm slightly brushed against his, she got goosebumps immediately as she looked at him and blushed, he smiled at her and then slowly slid his hand on her lap where her hand was rested and got hold of it intertwining both their fingers so that their hands were tightly held.

Khushi's heart was beating for fast and she felt happy and nervous at the same time, Arnav was here doing little cute things like this making this just like the fairytale she had always imagined.

She liked the feeling she had while holding his hand, every few moments she would look at their held hands and smile. His hand was pretty soft and it perfectly fit into hers as if they were made for each other.

Khushi was having all her fun until Arnav's phone started ringing loudly in the class catching everyone's attention, the lecturer looked at him seriously.

"Arnav go receive that call outside, you're disturbing the whole class and next time keep it on silent." She said to him, Arnav nodded as he stood up immediately and headed outside to receive the call, Khushi just pouted sadly because he had to let her hand go. She liked holding his hand, she wanted to hold it forever.

She kept looking outside through the window, waiting for him to finish his call and come back quickly so she could get to hold his hand again.

A few minutes later, Arnav walked back into the class and sat down beside Khushi again.

"Sorry babe, that was my dad." He said, Khushi nodded and blushed at the same time, it was like with every passing moment, Arnav was just getting cuter, now he was already addressing her as babe and not as Khushi, she liked the sound of it.

"What's making you blush so much, your cheeks are completely pink." Arnav looked at her in surprise.

"You." She giggled as she grabbed his hand and held it into hers.

"What did I do?"

"Nothing... you're just so cute I can't deal with it." She replied, he just laughed and then turned his head to look ahead.

At lunch hours, Arnav and Khushi walked out of their class to find Suman so the three of them could eat together, they kept walking around the corridors but instead of looking for suman, they were lost into each other's eyes.

They would keep looking at each other every now and then and then smile and look away then a while later look back, it was funny and cute at the same time.

"Hello love birds." Suman smirked as she stopped in front of them, they both looked at her and blushed a little.

"Aww, you two are cute, you're even blushing together." She teased making Khushi blush more.

"Shut up." Khushi said as she pulled her into a hug, today she was just so happy she wanted to share all her happiness with her best friend.

Since childhood, this had been like a dream to her, and now, it was coming true, could you imagine how great that felt?
