Bhavna got ready to go to work. She was very excited today. Devesh had told her yesterday that they would go on a date today evening. She was excited yet nervous, what if her parents deny.
She nervously went to her father who was sitting in the hall reading newspaper. She cleared her throat and said.
"Papa wo mujhe aapse kuch puchhna hai. Actually main aur-"
(Papa i want to ask something. Actually me and-)
"Tu aur Devesh aaj bahar jaa rhe hai. Pta hai mujhe. Unhone mujhse permission li thi bete kal."
(You and Devesh are going out today. I know. He took my permission yesterday.)
"Ohh. Okay. Mai chalti hu byee."
(I will leave now.)
She said excited and hurried off while Ritesh shook his head at her antics.
**************************************
She came back home around 1:30pm with a magnanimous smile on her face. She was just too happy today. Devesh would come there at 6pm. She decided to go to the parlour and get her facial done. She had to look her best today.
She came back from the parlour at 3pm and started searching her wardrobe. Failing to decide what to wear she called Chhaya and asked her to help her select. They switched to video call and Bhavna started showing her all the dresses she had.
Finally one and half hour and around 15 dresses later, they decided a simple yet aesthetic off-shoulder wine dress.
"You look hot babe. Jiju ne toh flat ho jaana hai."
(Jiju will be smitten.)
Bhavna blushed and they teased each other for a while and then disconnected the call. Bhavna started getting ready. Devesh would be here in half and hour. She was almost ready when she heard voices outside. He was here. She quickly wore her earrings and went outside.
"Jee aunty mai theek hu. Ghar mai sab log achhe hai aur kaam bhi-"
(Yes aunty i am fine. Everyone is fine at home and work is also-)
Devesh was talking to Mitali when he saw Bhavna coming out of her room. 'How does she manage to take my breath away every single time.'
Mitali noticed him looking at Bhavna with his mouth open and stifled her giggles. She blessed both of them and asked them to enjoy themselves.
They settled in the car when Devesh said.
"You look beautiful."
"Thank you. And you look handsome."
Devesh said kissing her hand while she smiled shyly. They reached the place in about an hour and Bhavna was amazed to see the arrangements.
"Beautiful."
"Tumhe achha laga?"
(You like it?)
"Bahut achha hai. Thank you."
(I love it.)
She said and hugged him.
"Come let's sit. Pehle dinner, dance ya water show?"
(First dinner, dance or water show?)
Devesh asked. Bhavna looked at him in confusion.
"Water show?"
"Hmm. Ek chhota sa program hota hai of about half an hour."
(Hmm. Its a small half an hour program.)
"Okay then pehle wahi dekhte hai."
(Let's see it then.)
Bhavna said excited. Devesh kissed her hands and called someone and told him the same. They then settled down and the show started. After around 30 minutes the show was over and they were now cuddled into each other.
"It was beautiful. Aur ab mujhe bhook lgi hai"
(Now i am hungry.)
Bhavna said. Devesh nodded and called a waiter. They gave their orders and the food arrived in another 20 minutes. They had their dinner chatting and laughing in between. They were again sitting cuddling each other when Devesh spoke.
"I have something for you. Aankhen band kro."
(Close your eyes.)
"Kya?"
(What?)
"Arre tum aankhen toh band kro. Trust me."
(You just close your eyes.)
"I trust you."
Bhavna said and closed her eyes. She felt something cold touching her neck. A pendant. Devesh asked her to open her eyes and she saw a beautiful pendant which had a crown over a heart.
"Ye bahut pyaara hai. Par iski zarurat nhi thi."
(This is very pretty. But it was not needed.)
"Jaanta hu. Par mera mann tha toh maine de diya."
(I know. But i wanted to.)
Devesh shrugged and then said.
"Dance?"
"Okay."
They got up and started to dance in a soft rhythmic manner, swaying their bodies with the music. His one hand on her waist and other holding hers. Their eyes gazing into each other's with so much love and passion. He slowly started leaning in and their faces were inches apart he looked into her eyes. She slowly closed her eyes and tilted her head giving him the permission he needed.
He reduced the distance between them and their lips met in a slow kiss. His right hand which was holding hers came up to her face as he carresed it softly and her left hand came to rest on the back of his neck as their lips moved in sync with each other. He pulled back when he felt the need to breath. Their foreheads resting against each other.
He opened his eyes and looked at her. Eyes closed. Lips parted and slightly swollen. Face flustered. The pendant moving up and down on her heaving chest.
He leaned in again and took her lips in a kiss again. It was nothing like the first kiss. If the first kiss was slow and loving then this was fierce and passionate. He pulled her more closer by her waist leaving no gap between them and kissed her fervently. He pinched her waist lightly making her gasp and took it as an opportunity and deepened the kiss. He broke the kiss with a last tug at her lower lip.
He looked at her once again. She looked more flustered than before. He softly pecked her forehead, picked her up in his arms, carried her back and made her sit. She snuggled into him, hiding her face in his chest making him chuckle lightly. He made her look up by holding her chin.
"Look at me."
He said. His voice still husky which sent shivers down her spine.
"Jaan. Tell me, are you uncomfortable?"
Not being able to say anything she just shook her head.
"Shy?"
He asked and was amused when she nodded slowly. He chuckled again and hugged her tightly. This was his peace. Her in his arms.
