CHAPTER 29

|AUTHOR|

Naina was still shocked but continued to kiss him with equal passion. She moved her right hand to the nape of his neck and clutched his hair with her fingeres. Their lips moved against each other's vigorously. Under the starry sky and the sound of the crickets were the only things that witnessed their beautiful moment. Viraj could taste her minty breath. Naina was the first one to break their passiointe lip lock.

She moved back trying to catch her breath placing her hands on Viraj's shoulders. Both of their breaths mingled. Viraj let out a husky laugh, Naina buried her head in his chest. She had only read about such passionate kisses. Never did she imagine in her wildest dreams that she would experience it.

He held her face in between his hands and bought it close to his face. Naina's face was warm, she looked down suddenly overpowered by shyness. She cannot believe that they had kissed each other so passionately. "Hey look at me Naina!" Viraj pushed tilted her face. Naina blinked her eyes open and stared into his grey ones. He appeared to be even more ethereal.

She could feel his strong body around her's. She felt secured and protected. Naina often wondered how did he look so good even when it was the end of the day. He never looked tired or worn out. He looked alert all the time as though looking out for danger at all times. She concluded it must be the solider in him.

They were lost in each other's gazes. The moonlight falling on their faces, for Naina Viraj looked like the most handsome man ever and for Viraj Naina appeared to be the most beautiful woman. Naina was the first one to look a way she cleared her throat and tucked a piece of loose hair behind her ear. "Well that just happened!" She laughed nervously trying to brush it off. Viraj moved closer to her and kissed her on her forehead.

"Do I make you nervous Miss Rao?" Naina laughed lightly and pushed him. "Maybe just a little bit Major Gupta." Viraj let out a husky laugh once again pulling her towards him. Naina suddenly remembered that she was mad at him. Shoving him on his shoulders she moved back. "Woah what a great way to distract me Viraj? I'm still mad at you! How dare you do that?" Viraj pulled her again casually holding her waist and smirked at her. "Well what can I say Miss Rao, you bring out the best in me. You look so sexy when you're mad!" He tucked a few strands behind her ears.

Naina's heart pounded, did a man really just call her sexy? She shook her head trying to clear her head. Pushing him away once again she maintained some distance with him. I
She can't think straight with his close proximity. "That's funny, whatever that's not my point. My point is why didn't you inform me? Do you have any idea what I have been going through the past week?"

Viraj sighed, his playful mood suddenly turning into a serious one. "Look Naina this is not going to be the first time, there will be more days when I won't be able to talk to you. If we're making what is between us official I want to make a few things clear." Naina nodded her head letting out a huge sigh. She pointed her finger. "I have one thing to say." Viraj looked at her with a stern expression hoping it's not something very serious. "Of course you tell me first. I still have a lot of things to talk about."

"Viraj you do know right in another three weeks I have to go back to Bangalore? So how exactly is this going to work?" She asked him moving her hand between the both of them. Viraj sighed looking down with an expression of grief. He didn't really want to think or talk about that. What about when she applies for universities in some other country?

He will never stop her if she really wants to go. He can never hinder her dreams just for his selfish reasons. He will let her go even if it means parting ways with her. He didn't want to think about all of this as of now. He just wanted to focus on what they had, moreover it's too early to have such conversations.
