“Advaith! What are you doing? Oh my God! Where're your tablets?”
Alisha yelled in panick and jerked her hand out of his in a hurry to not worsen his allergies. She started running towards his room to get his tablets when he held her hand and pulled her again.
“Alisha listen to-”
“Pagal ho gye ho kya? Why are you touching me? It'll get wors-”
She stopped midway looking at his hand. It was fine. Clean. Completely okay. She looked at him surprised.
“Ad-advaith? You-why are you not getting any reaction from my touch?”
He didn't say anything. Didn't know how to. Will she be mad for not telling her?
Her eyes widened when she realised.
“You-you can touch me? Oh my God Advaith! You can touch me!”
She sounded so thrilled. Her eyes met his and her smile diminished.
“Why do you not look surprised? You knew?”
He nodded once and she frowned.
“I only got to know two weeks back. You were sleeping and held my hand in your sleep. Uss waqt I got scared but mujhe koi reaction nhi hua. Then when it happened again, I knew it was true. I could touch you Alisha. I could touch you.”
He whispered and she looked at him through tears shining in her eyes.
“That-that means I can-hug you properly?”
“Yes please!”
He whispered in desperation and she launched herself in his arms. Her arms around his neck and his face in her neck. Tears of longing and happiness fell from both of their eyes. Advaith felt like he would faint with the overwhelming feeling.
They pulled back and she looked at him cupping his cheek and kissing his forehead and cheeks.
“I can't believe this is real! It feels like a dream Advaith!”
“Trust me I feel like I am floating since the time I've realised this is true.”
He whispered and they joined their foreheads and sighed in content. He pulled back after some time and caressed her face with a soft smile on his face.
She looked into his eyes and her breath hitched seeing his expression and the desire in his eyes. She knew what he wanted to do. And she too wanted the same.
Both of them leaned in at the same time and met halfway joining their lips in a slow, soft kiss.
Tears fell from his eyes. He was kissing her. His love. The woman he loved and could touch, kiss.
They pulled back shortly and she looked at him biting her lip. A naughty expression formed on her face. She pushed him back on the sofa and he sat with a thud trying to gauge her actions.
She straddled his lap and cupped his face before smashing her lips on his again. Sbe felt him smile in the kiss and her own lips curled into a smile.
It had been a few weeks since Alisha discovered the truth about her being able to touch Advaith and their first kiss. Safe to say Advaith was totally addicted to physical touch with her. Not that she'd minded or would ever mind.
The two were sitting in his bed right now. Freshly out of a makeout session which was cut short abruptly by a call that Advaith received from office about an impromptu online meeting.
He had got busier from the day he took over officially. But he was happy with the responsibility and thrill that came with it.
He gave a fleeting look to his girl who sat beside him looking freshly kissed. Her lips still swollen and cheeks very flushed. She looked so delectable. He bit back a smile and maintained the professional facade.
As soon as the delegates took their leave from the meeting, Advaith shut his laptop and pulled her on his lap making her ‘oh’. She looked at him and then blushed, hiding her face in his chest like a kitten.
She was very silent for whole two minutes. Which was a very new thing for him. She rarely ever shut up in front of him and he loved it when he talked.
“What are you thinking?”
He asked and she sighed and looked at him finally asking what has been bothering her since a long time.
“I'm really happy that you're able to touch me without having any reactions but I am confused. Genuinely confused as to why me? Usually ye expection parents ya someone else, someone blood related ke saath nhi hona chahiye? I mean if we take away the fact of us dating, I'm practically a stranger to you. Mujhe samajh nhi aa rhi ye cheez.”
Advaith was caressing her hair and stopped for a second before continuing and spoke.
“All these years I have consulted a lot of doctors about my condition. 50 se jyada countries mai dikha chuka hu but everyone says different things. Some say it's incurable and will stay with me for life. No exception whatsoever. Some said that it's a state of mind. And I always found that explanation plausible.”
Alisha looked at him confused.
“Matlab?”
He pinched her cheek at how cute she sounded when she asked that. All snuggled up into him and peeking at him like a baby.
