Us Being Us (A Darshan Raval Fanfic)

XXIII. Long Time, No See

Darshan's POV:

I knocked on Aisha's door, bouncing. I was excited. "Aaja pagal," she yelled. I went in to see her packing her bag. My jaw dropped. She looked at me and smiled. She looked (refer image) so adorable. "Hey. Uh, close the door. I got something to say," she said. I closed the door and locked it. She came towards me and rested her arms on my shoulders. "I know we're dating. I love that. But, hold off on the staring. Okay?" she explained, quietly. I nodded. "Get down here!!" Uncle yelled. "Dad, one sec. I am just checking my bag. Chill," Aisha called back. "Before we leave," she said looking at me. I raised my eyebrows. She kissed my lips, my neck and budged her nose with mine. We ran downstairs. "You're late, Asher," Uncle said, holding up his watch. "Dad, we had to leave at 11:30. It is freaking 11:00. I adjusted your watch," she replied. All of us held up our phones. Uncle smiled. "Prankster like her mom," he laughed and Aisha struck a pose. We left for the park. Aisha was grooving to some random songs with her headphones on.  Dad and Uncle were talking about their work, and Mom and Auntie were talking about food.  I was gawking at Aisha. I had nothing better to do. Suddenly, Aisha shoved a book in my face. "Read. Don't stare," she mouthed and laid in my lap after putting her phone away and a pillow in my lap. I started reading and she fell asleep hugging me with her face shoved into my stomach. "Aisha," Auntie called. "She's asleep," I said. Auntie grabbed a picture.

Aisha's POV:
I woke up as someone placed me on my legs. Darshan. "Dude, you could've woken me up!" I exclaimed. He grinned. I shook my head and we headed in. Dad got the keys and threw me and Auntie a key. "Wait. What? 3 rooms?" I asked. "Yeah. Me and mom, Uncle and Auntie, and you two clowns," Dad explained. "Hey! We're not clowns!" Darshan and I exclaimed. The adults laughed. We walked to the rooms and Dad said that we would rest for a few hours before going out. I opened the room and we dumped our bags in the closet and sat on the bed. "Hey, we don't have to hold off on the idiosyncrasies!" Darshan smiled. I grinned. "I'm gonna sleep for a while. Badi neend aa rahi hai," I said and laid down on the pillow. "Main Ma ko lunch ke baare mein pooch ke aata hoon," Darshan said and left the room.  After around 10 minutes, "Ishuuuuuuuuuu!!!!" Darshan yelled as he locked the room and jumped on the bed, waking me up. "Kya?" I asked, sleepily. "PRATHAM IS HERE!!" He exclaimed. "WHAT?" I yelled. "He is here. Get ready," he informed. I nodded. "Look, the parents know, but, we cannot let them know now. Especially Mamma. Please. We have to handle it," I said, seriously. He nodded, hugging me. 

After 3 hours... 

"Don't tell me!! All of you, you're scared of the water rollercoaster!! I am going. Alone. I am daredevil, somehow? Really? Gabbu, tu aa raha hai!! Chal," I yelled, angrily. I lived with wimps. We'd already done all the other rides/activities. "Dad!! What kind of Punjabi are you? You were supposed to be the daredevil too," I yelled and pulled Darshan with me. We got tickets and sat in the rollercoaster. "Hey! Long time, no see," a voice said. Pratham. "Gabbu, switch seats?" I asked. He nodded and switched. "Ishu, bola nahi na?" He asked, worriedly. I shook my head and kissed his cheek, buckling myself. After the ride, we were drenched and Darshan hugged me. "Hey, sweetie. Are you cold?" Pratham asked. I hugged Darshan tighter and didn't reply. "Ishu. Look at me," Darshan said and I looked up at him. "Room mein chalein? You are freezing," he asked. I nodded. "Ishu? Since when do you call her that?" Pratham asked. We walked off and met our parents. "Jaake change karo. Meet us at the hotel. 20 minutes? Cool?" Dad asked. "Make it 30," I said. I had to handle Pratham. His mom was right there. Dad nodded and we walked to the rooms. "Uh, aren't you Aisha?" Pratham's mom asked. I nodded. "You got my son expelled, huh?" She asked. "I didn't. His ACTIONS did," I said, firmly. Darshan's arm was wrapped around my shoulder, protectively. "Who is this?" She asked, looking at Darshan. "My best friend, my life, basically," I said. "I am sorry for what he did and I will keep him away from you," she said and left. She was weird. We went to the room and got changed in a minute. Well, me. Darshan took 10 minutes.

Darshan's POV:

She looked so hot! I wanted to kiss her. We had 20 minutes. So, I did. I locked the door and grabbed her by the waist, pushing my lips onto hers. She kissed back and wrapped her arms around my neck. I slowly moved my mouth to her neck and she tilted her head, giving me more access. Suddenly, she pulled away. "No... why did you pull away?" I whined. "No kissing. I don't wanna get caught," she said checking her neck. I nodded. She kissed my neck for a second and pulled me out the door. "We took only 15!!" She cheered as she sat down on the food table. "Paneer?" Uncle asked and Aisha nodded, smiling. We started eating and Aisha looked at me. She gave me a look that said 'I wanna kiss you more, but I can't'. 

I did too. Her lips felt good on mine.
