Married But...

chapter 45

Anand's POV

"What are you doing here"

"I... " Before I could come up with any better excuse she gestured me to follow her into the room. I followed her by taking bigger steps so that I could disappear from that hall as soon as possible.

"What are you doing here? I-I mean now? At this time?" She questioned as soon as she closed the door.

"I.. um.. wanted to see you" I said, which made her smile.

"Really?"

Instead of answering her question I asked "did you miss me?"

"I just saw you few hours back" she laughed.

I furrowed my eyebrows. I know... I know we just saw each other just few hours back but.. I.. didn't liked how she replied to my question. Infact it hurt me because I expected her to say "Me too". Maybe I was expecting too much too soon but I already had a feeling that I waste a century figuring out that I actually love her. Even though I figured it out recently that I'm actually in love with my irritating wife, i still didn't figure it out how will I confess it to her. I wish that she ask me the same question that she asked a month before. Back then I wasn't sure of my feelings for her but now I understood why I felt that way.

I was so lost in thoughts that I didn't knew when I sat on her bed, until she sat beside me.

"I thought you told me that you would come in the morning" she gave me a naughty smile.

Now, I think it was her turn to tease me.

Instead of answering, I smiled at her.

We kept on talking and laughing all the night. I was more than happy to hear her talking and to see her expressions. Only then I realised how  badly I had missed her. She kept on talking about everything that came to her mind, jumping from one topic to another which made me confuse but it was still beautiful to hear her. Everytime When she held my arm with excitement while talking, passed electricity into my body.

"Oh... It's already..." She began to say right after noticing the time.

"It's ok... Keep on talking" I smiled.

"Are you taunting me?" She narrowed her eyes but her lips smiled.

"Yes!" I said even though if wasn't. rolling on the bed.

She laughed.

"Anu.."

"Huh?"

I stared at her for few seconds before daring to ask her "do you love me?"

She stared back at me without blinking, her smile slowly disappeared but reappeared within seconds and I instantly knew what her answer was going to be.

"No-"

Even before she could complete 'o..' in 'No' I immediately got up and attached her with the soft pillow. "I knew. I knew you would say that."

She began to laugh.

I continued hitting her with the pillow and she did the same.

"Okay okay Stop it now" she said when she got tired of both pillow fight and laughing.

"Only if you say sorry" I said raising my eyebrows.

"Why would I do that?" She said breathing heavily. Shd was clearly tired.

"Becaus-" just when my focus shifted from her she took the advantage by snatching the pillow from mg hand.

"Ohooo... Mr Anand now what are you going to do?" She said biting her lips, raising her eyebrows.

We both were kneeling on the bed facing each other. When I realised I was just inches away from her, I couldn't control my thoughts. I just kept staring at her. With every passing seconds my thoughts became wilder. Even before knowing what I was doing I wrapped my left hand around her waist and pulled her close to me. Both Anu and I was surprised by this. She stared into my eyes without blinking, because.. maybe she was surprised of maybe... She was waiting for my next move.  To be frank I really didn't know what I was doing. The fact that she was soo close to me, awoke some kind of hunger in me. I kew it very well that even a small mistake in  that moment can make our relationship complicated once again and I know I still didn't confess her how much I love her and how much I want her.  Before I could even realise what I was doing.. my lips aimed for her lips but just in time she turned aside and my lips landed on her cheeks.

*Embarrassed*

Instantly I turned red. For few seconds my brain didn't work, but when it finally did, I quickly decided to apologise her but then I realised something. Something... That made me excited, my lips were still on her cheeks and shs didn't move and her breathing was shaky. In addition, Her hand gripped my shirt. This gave me some confidence.  I pushed my luck just a bit. I kissed her neck slowly. She gripped my shirt tightly. That reaction from her, gave me so many thought that I never had. And before I could think of anything straight, we jumped when we heard a sudden knock in the door.

*Shit!!shit!*

We both stared at the door for few seconds without giving any other reactions.

When we heard a knock for the second time Anu was the first to out of the bed to answer. When I noticed her blushing I was pleased with that.

"So..." Anu's father began. We all sat on the dinning table for the breakfast.

"So...?" I asked. I didn't had any clue what he was asking.

"Are you here to " he stopped  and tried to reframe his question "are you both-"

"Nanna.. we are going back today" Anu interrupted.

Both her parents looked happy while her sister was disappointed.

Anu's father began "That's good-" and he immediately change his sentance to "I mean you both can stay here as long as you wish" when my mother in law pinched him in elbow.

I chuckled.

From the corner of my eyes I saw Anu looking at me, she was still blushing. ' I love you Anu..' I thought, that made me smile at her like an idiot and she smiled back. Proving that we both are equally idiots.
