Tanishka gulped her drink quickly and got up.
“Yaar aise baithne thodi na aaye hai. Come on! Let's dance!”
She said and started bouncing lightly on her feet.
“Ye khatam krke.”
Anshika raised her half empty drink as she leisurely had her snacks.
Tanishka looked at the two men who made themselves more comfortable. She shrugged and went to the dance floor herself.
The three of them sat there enjoying their drinks while Anshika sat on her seat dancing lightly.
“It's weird.”
She heard Kanav speak after some time. She followed his line of gaze and saw him looking at Tanishka?
“What's weird? Her dancing?”
She asked confused and Aditya snickered.
“Me noticing her. Why am I noticing her too much today?”
He mumbled and had a big gulp of his drink. Anshika grinned and Aditya raised his eyebrow.
“Finally! You started noticing her.”
“W-what?”
Kanav was confused at her words and so was Aditya.
“What what? You have no idea the kind of chemistry you both have. Initially toh mujhe laga tha that you guys are dating or something.”
“We-what?”
Kanav was shocked.
“Pure office ko lagta hai that you people like each other or maybe secretly dating. You just have this weird spark between you.”
“Tujhe bhi aisa lagta hai?”
Kanav asked Aditya not able to believe what Anshika just said. Aditya shrugged and said.
“Never noticed.”
“Kisse puchh rhe ho? He never notices anything apart from his dear work.”
Anshika rolled her eyes but they widened the next second when Aditya spoke.
“That's not true! I notice you.”
Kanav coughed teasing them while Anshika blushed.
“Guys yaar! You are so boring! Aao na!”
Tanishka came once again and this time Kanav surprised them all by standing up and holding her hand. He dragged her to the dance floor and pulled her closer.
Their bodies were plastered against each others with no space between them, his hands were around her waist and hers were around his neck as she looked at him with surprised eyes.
Kanav bent down and whispered something in her ear which made her smile shyly as they started dancing together.
Anshika sipped on her drink with a grin and looked at Aditya who was already looking at her.
“They're so cute!”
She gushed and he chuckled. He got up making her look at him with a raised eyebrow.
“Come on!”
He urged her forwarding his hand and she didn't waste any second before grasping it. They stood in front of each other on the dance floor. Anshika lightly swayed at the music.
A gasp left her mouth when he snaked an arm around her waist and pulled her into him. His eyes spoke a lot of things that his lips couldn't. She wrapped her arms around his neck and they rested their forehead against each other.
“What are we doing?”
She asked after some time. The things she felt for him were too much. He made her feel vulnerable and strong at the same time.
“Dancing.”
“No…I…I mean…what are we doing? This! Why are we dancing like this? Like we're…like we're together.”
He looked at her seriously and asked.
“Do you want that? Want us to be together? Want me to be your boyfriend?”
He saw a lot of emotions in her eyes. She gulped before asking.
“Do you want that?”
She asked, assuming him to deny. He had never been open about his feelings. And she had expected him to deny now also. But his next words surprised her.
“Yes! Yes I do.”
“You-”
She looked at him wide eyed. His fingers threaded in her hair and he put his lips beside her ear as he spoke in a whisper.
“You make me feel things I've never felt or atleast never allowed myself to feel Anshika. Not after my first breakup. I swore off rich kids. But you break all the walls. I…I am falling in love with you Anshika.”
He placed a soft kiss on her cheek and she clutched his shirt as a tear escaped her eye.
“I want you to kiss me. Please kiss me.”
She whispered and he released a defeated sigh.
“I can't! Not right now. You're still my intern and it's highly inappropriate and unprofessional.”
She slumped against him and he held her securely. She relished the feeling and he placed a kiss on top of her head.
“So what are you going to do about this now?”
She asked after some time and he smiled.
“I'll wait until you complete your internship and the day you do, I'll make you my girlfriend.”
She bit her lip satisfied at the prospect.
“Aur phir?”
“Aur phir, I wait for you to complete your degree, get settled in your professional life and then…”
“And then?”
“And then when you're ready, I'll make you my wife.”
He whispered and she felt her throat clog.
“W-wife? You want to marry me?”
“What part of ‘I’m falling in love with you’ did you not understand? Ofcourse I'll marry you. Whenever you're ready.”
She melted against him completely.
“You can't say things like that and expect me not to kiss you.”
She pouted trying to entice him but he was firm. Nuzzling his nose with her lightly, he whispered.
“What can I say? I'm evil!”
She giggled and he smiled, kissing her forehead once again.
To both of their not very surprise, Tanishka and Kanav were dating starting that night.
And with the way Tanishka was blushing and Kanav was smirking naughtily at her, they definitely went home together and did something naughty if not sleep together.
Anshika was desperately waiting for her internship to get over and the day couldn't come any later.
But finally, her wait was over. Today was the last day and she was too excited. Yes, a part of her was saddened at the prospect of not being able to gossip with Tanishka daily or enjoy Kanav's naughtiness but the image of her and Aditya together enticed her more.
She was thanking every associate who guided her throughout the internship. When she reached Tanishka and Kanav, who were now practically glued to each other, she grinned wide.
