Annika watched as Shivaay drifted into a deep slumber, he had been persistent about making her stay with him until he fell asleep and Annika did not fight him, knowing he wouldn't listen to her and continue to argue with her till she couldn't help but agree to him. He snuggled into her warmth as he laid his head in her laps, this definitely was heaven for him. Shivaay was tired and tipsy, she stroked his hair gently.

Shivaay was breathing heavily, as if he had finally been able to get good sleep after ages. Annika wondered if it was because of her? Heat crawled to her cheeks, did he find peace in her arms? He shifted in position, now he had rolled down her laps but still remained deep asleep, this man was a heavy sleeper, Annika thought before slowly sliding off the bed. She heaved a sigh watching him, grabbing a blanket from the cupboard, slowly, she covered his body with it.

Staring at his serene face for one more time, she turned around, tip-toeing out of the room so as not to wake him up. In the process, she had grabbed herself a blanket. When she entered Gauri's room, she found it quite messy, the bed was stalked with clothes and accessories lying everywhere, on the floor and the desk. Annika wasn't in a mood to place them back to their places so she decided to spend her night on the couch.

It was almost midnight when Annika settled herself down on the couch, tying her hair up in a bun and holding her phone close to her face. She was sleepy but not that much, so she scrolled down randomly on her phone, coming across various news but what caught her eyes was the news about her boyfriend, tilted as — 'The billionaire Shivaay Singh Oberoi had finally sealed a deal with Tia Kapoor'

Annika remembered about Shivaay mentioning it to her and she was genuinely happy for him. She read the article thoroughly, a yawn escaping her mouth and then she came across a picture of them together, standing next to each other but they had inches of gap between them and Shivaay looked a bit uncomfortable, like he was forced to do it but nevertheless, his face held a smile, of joy and contentment.
Annika smiled, how did she land up getting such an adorable dork? She kept her phone aside, he was just a room away from her, yet she had wanted to give him space and privacy while he slept, what if wouldn't be much comfortable finding she slept next to him and that was the last thing Annika wanted to happen, him to get uncomfortable around her.

She drifted off to sleep, sure enough that when her eyes closed, he appeared in front of her, Annika was more than delighted to dream about him, every night.

"Shut the fuck up, you're going to wake her up"

"Oh my god, you two slept together, didn't you?"

"We did not," Shivaay glared at Gauri who was still watching the scene unfold in front of her. She looked over at Annika who was still sound asleep, Shivaay cleared his throat, arms crossing over his chest. Gauri snickered, maybe she got it wrong but she had found them both on the same bed.
