.

He turned towards her and tucked a couple of her locks behind her ears and then ran his thumb over her cheeks and then softly whispered into her ears,

"Not just head over heels, I love you with all my heart and my soul Akira. If only I could show you how much you mean to me".

He sighed and then buried his head next to hers.

She just smiled and then started running her fingers through his hair and said,

"I know that", and she smiled with all her heart.

Then he propped himself up and looking into her eyes he said,

"Then promise me that you will not let anyone walk you around".

"Ok"

'Promise me that no matter how cold it is or whatever may be the reason, you will not wear anyone's jacket".

She smiled and said "Ok" again.

"And promise that you won't go out looking all cute like this anywhere. Wear the ugliest of the clothes that you have and don't you dare keep your hair open."

"Looks like you got a whole list ready", she said slightly pouting in anger.

He got annoyed with the disturbance in the flow of his deamands list.

He looked at her and narrowed his eyes and without bothering about her question he said,

"And you are forbidden from wearing any lip gloss".

"Forbidden??", she asked in surprise.

"Yes, it makes me crazy. Makes me curious to find out how it tastes and I don't want anyone to even remotely have that thought", he said and ran his thumb on her lower lip slowly and then licked it.

"Mmm.... strawberry. I like it !!!".

She blushed hard and looked away from him, averting his intense gaze.

"What? Say something !!!", he said pulling her chin towards him so that he could make her look into his eyes.

She nodded but stole her gaze again as her heart had already started beating rampantly and she wasn't sure what she would do if he kept looking at her like that.

Then a few seconds later she looked back at him and replied all teasingly,

"That's all you had? I thought your list was infinite !!!"

'Well I have a few more but they are kind of situational", he said and raised one of his eyebrows trying to gauge her.

"I am listening", she said coyly.

"You will drive to the new office on your own. No taking hop-in hop-off lift from anyone"

"And also you will not have solo lunch with anyone there. Eat with the entire team."

"But I had my first lunch with you alone. So you mean to say that I shouldn't have done that?", she retorted.

"Yeah and look what it resulted into. Me lying in your bedroom, on your bed, just inches away from you with you looking so kissable", he said and flicked her forehead.

"Ouch !!! You are so mean".

"I am not mean, I am just trying to make myself clear to you about you know, certain parameters", he said and took a deep breath.

"Well in technical terms we call it as being possessive", Akira spoke with a tone like she wanted to chide him.

"Well let it be then. As long as I can keep you safe from others, call me possessive, I don't care", he said and quickly hovered back on top of her.

"I feel like kissing you right now", he said and looked straight into her eyes.

She was shocked with his ability to speak his mind out so bluntly like his tongue was made of a razor. So she tried to avert her gaze again but then she heard him say,

"I could have stopped my thoughts, but your dress isn't helping", he said and smiled like a devil in disguise.

She craned her neck a bit up.

Indeed her short dress wasn't helping. Because of the fall and the flip, her hemlines had already left the lower quadrant of her body exposing her delicate laces and a part of her waist.

Her hands moved quickly to pull her dress down but her attempt was fruitless and mid-way he gripped his hand and pushed it aside. Then without breaking his eye contact with her, he moved his palm and placed it on her bare and smooth waist and slowly circled his thumb all around.

She instantly closed her eyes in pleasure.

Her chest was rising up and down in a quick rhythm.

She knew a kiss was incoming and slightly her lips were parted but he didn't move an inch. He just enjoyed the sight of her. The way her body reacted to his touch, made him ecstatic. His own body was now governed with carnal desires and only he knew what demons lurked inside him.

When for a few seconds she couldn't feel his incoming lips, she opened her eyes and saw him gawing at her, just inches away and she was pissed.

She didn't put her anger into words but she definitely was angry.

Her brows were curled up and she looked at him like she was giving me a death stare.

"What?", he asked all candidly.

"Really you are asking what?", she retorted in anger.

"Yeah what happened? Why are you angry with me?"

"Don't act now. You know", she said and pouted again out of anger and disappointment.

"No I don't know, and I would very much like you to tell me", he said and touched the tip of her nose, annoying her even more.

"Go away you are such a tease!!!", she said and tried to push him away but in vain.

He took a deep breath and said,

"All that you got to do is ask !!!"

She narrowed her eyes and looked up at him.

"This was the last thing on my list that I wanted you to know. If you want anything, if you need anything then all that you got to do is to ask me. Not Mike, not Vikram, not anybody but me. I should be the one who fulfills all the desires of your heart".

"So if you feel like eating an ice-cream at 2 am in the morning or if you want to go shoe shopping, it has to be me and only me"

"Got it ?"

Her frown turned into a smile and she nodded.

"So right now do you need anything? Anything at all?", he asked even though he clearly knew what she wanted.

She smiled with her lips all tight and shook her head saying a NO.

"Reall? What about now?", he said and leaned a bit closer.

"Nopes, nothing", she said and shook her head again.

"What about now?", he asked inching even closer, cementing all the gap between him and her.

Her heartbeats started becoming rapid again.

Sensing her silence he moved even closer with his lips almost touching hers, teasing her with all the power that he had and breaking down all the resilience that she had harboured.

"Kiss me please !!!"

She whispered softly unable to breathe and think.
