Arohi came out of her room and she heard someone whistle. "Wow di" her cousin Priya said "you look HOT!" Arohi smiled at her and said "you look pretty hot yourself Priya." Priya giggled happily being the youngest it was nice getting compliments from her older cousins. But Arohi did look hot. She wore a deep purple sleeveless satin dress that fell to mid thigh. The dress v-d at the front with a thin purple belt tucking the dress in so it fit like a glove. Arohi had her hair all pinned so that they fell over her left shoulder in waves. Her eyes were done to create a smokey look and her lips were painted a pale pink. Arohi had pushed the whole Arjun incident out of her mind. She had decided she was going to pretend it never happened. Never happened, Never happened she repeated in her mind but as she glanced at the staircase she lost her train of thought. Arjun was walking down with her cousin Sanchit and the two were laughing at something, atleast Arohi thought Sanchit was laughing because she never did look at him, she couldn't take her eyes off of Arjun. WOW he looked gorgeous. He wore a charcoal colored suit fitted perfectly to him with a light bue shirt, the top 3 buttons undone. He looked dashing she thought. Arjun caught Arohi looking at him and gave her a smirk. She quickly looked away and started talking to her cousin.

They had hired a driver for the evening and apparently Arjun had rented a vehicle for himself aswell. He preferred to drive himself he had said. Arohi had just rolled her eyes at this. Everyone had headed outside when Arohi decided to grab a shawl, just incase in got chilly at night. When Arohi came back everyone had left except Arjun. "Where's everyone?" she asked in a panic. 'There was no room for you in the vehicle so they asked me to bring you' Arjun replied. "What?!" Arohi was so pissed off. They could have atleast waited for her, then she would have made one of the others go with Arjun instead. Now she was stuck. Arohi stop being a child she said to herself. He has no effect on you. Get into that car and keep your mouth shut! Arohi got into the car without saying a word. Arjun was shocked he had been expecting an Arohi tantrum. He got in and pulled out on to the main road. A few minutes went by and he noticed Arohi hadn't said one word. Very unArohi like. He atleast expected her to say something about the kiss..something about him forcing himself on her and how much she hated the kiss when they both know she had loved it. But nope not a word.

Arohi was remembering the damned kiss! She was so mad at herself. She had made the mistake of looking at his lips and then she had remembered those lips on hers. And it had been all downhill from there. She could feel herself turning red. Oh my god what's happening to me she thought. Arjun glanced at Arohi and saw that she was blushing. A slow smile appeared on his lips. Finally a reaction he thought. "Arohi everything okay" he asked. "You look a little warm' "What? No I'm fine" she stuttered. "Really, are you sure you're not thinking about the kiss we shared" he taunted. "Kiss, what kiss?" Arohi asked slowly. "Sorry I don't remember any kiss." "Oh Arjun said with a smile would you like me to refresh your memory then." "NO" Arohi shouted. "I mean not necessary I kinda remember it now" she said nervously. He laughed to himself this girl was too much. He decided to goad her a little more "Well I know you enjoyed it but just to let you know there can't be a repeat." "No matter how much you may want me to kiss you, I can't." "If we start any type of relationship our dad's are going to have us married next week." "They're just looking for any sign of consent from us." Arohi just stared at him with a horrified expression "Want to kiss you?!" she asked slowly shaking her head. "Enjoyed kissing you?" she said angrily. "Arjun let me refresh your memory." "You kissed me, not the other way around you.. you JERK!" "I didn't enjoy the kiss, it was repulsive...I... before Arohi could say anything else Arjun looked at her with his gorgeous smoldering eyes, they were so intense they looked amber in color. "Arohi I think we both know that we both enjoyed that kiss and that it probably won't be our last kiss."

Arohi stared at him in shock and watched him turn back and stare determinedly infront of him as he drove. Arohi opened her mouth and then shut it. She turned back towards the car window and stared mindlessly outside. Things were getting completely out of control.

As Arjun pulled up to the restaurant and gave the keys to the valet, he went to the passenger side and opened the door for Arohi. Arohi gave him a surprised look at she got out. "Arjun Singhania and manners I'm surprised" she said. "Arohi there's a lot about me that would surprise you" was Arjun's reply. They walked up to the restaurant that overlooked a beach. It was beautiful. The night was warm, and the waves were hitting the beach. Everyone was seated at the table already. Two seats remained side by side. Great Arohi thought, so much for keeping her distance from Arjun.

Dinner ended up being very enjoyable Arjun found himself thinking. Arohi seemed to be back to her old self, laughing and talking. Her stories kept everyone entertained throughout dinner. But Arjun noticed that she gave each one of her cousin's special attention talking about something each one is really good at or is involved in. Making each one feel special. You could tell how much she loved them and how much they loved her. Dinner had been delicious and the wine had loosened everyone up. Some people more then others as he looked over at Arohi giggling with her cousin Riya. "Okay everyone let's get going." "We've gotta a night of dancing infront of us" Sanchit announced. Arjun handed the waiter his Visa and said he'd pay for dinner as a thank you to everyone for letting him tag along. Arohi looked at him with a surprised half smile. Now it was Arjun's turn to be surprised. Arohi had never genuinely smiled at him before. Never had one of her killer smiles been directed at him. It wasn't a full smile but still something he thought.

This time Sanchit drove with Arjun. Arjun had laughed when he saw Arohi push Sanchit out of the way as she got into their car. Ms. Arohi Ahluwalia that was afraid of nothing was suddenly scared to be alone with Arjun. Interesting, he thought to himself. As they walked into the club, Arjun noticed a few familiar faces from Mumbai. Seeing a business associate Arjun excused himself to go meet him. Arohi and her cousins headed for the dance floor. The club was packed and the music was pumping. As usual the music took control and Arohi spent the better part of the evening on the dance floor, only stopping for a drink here and there. Arjun spent most of his evening off the dance floor, watching Arohi. Damn he thought she could move. She was having a great time with her cousins. She ofcourse was rejecting any guy that asked her to dance. This time Arjun was happy about that, he didn't really want to analyze exactly why he was happy though. Arjun himself had been approached to dance many times but tonight he wasn't interested in dancing with any other girl. Arjun watched Arohi walk off the dance floor and walk over to him. "The music is awesome why aren't you dancing she asked". "Don't feel like it" he answered back. "You want a drink?" he asked. "Yeah I'll have a vodka and 7" was her answer.. As he returned with her drink he noticed she was talking to some guy. And she wasn't telling him off, she was infact laughing at something he was saying. Arjun handed Arohi her drink and Arohi introduced the two. "Arjun this is Sunny and guess what he's from Vancouver too". "Hi" Arjun said. "What's up" Sunny responded. With that Sunny went back to talking to Arohi, they were comparing people they might both know in Vancouver. Arjun watched them talk for 5 minutes before he cut in and asked Arohi to dance. Arohi looked surprised but hesitantly said okay.

As the two were walking to the dance floor the DJ put on a slow song. All the couples started getting close for the song. Arohi looked at Arjun questioningly and Arjun put his hands on Arohi's hips. She stepped in close to him and put her arm around his neck. Instantly Arohi felt the electricity vibrating between them. Arjun unconsciously pulled her alittle closer. He could feel her soft hair on his face. Smell that light flowery scent that was all Arohi. Arohi was looking up at him as they swayed to the music. The moment was perfect until he felt a tap on his shoulder. 'Hey Arjun mind if I step in?" Sunny asked. Arohi smiled at Sunny and nodded. Arjun let go of Arohi but as he walked away he felt something that strangely felt like jealousy. He pushed it back but it kept rising back up. Looking back at them on the dance floor laughing and dancing Arjun felt something that he wasn't ready to analyze. As he stood with Sanchit and Raj, a group of girls walked over and started talking to them. Arjun let himself be distracted. He didn't want to think about Arohi anymore.

The group got home around 3:30 in the morning and everyone was tired and rushed off to bed. Arohi took a quick shower and changed into a pair of blue shorts and a black ribbed tank top. Her hair was tied up in a loose bun. Arohi heard her stomach growl and decided to grab a snack. They had picked up some essentials from a local grocery store earlier and she knew exactly what she was craving...strawberry ice cream.. yummy she thought. She grabbed a bowl and scooped some in, then grabbed a light shawl and headed out on to the deck. She made herself comfy and listened to the sound of the surf. It was so peaceful. Just as she was feeling herself drift to sleep. She heard footsteps. "Arjun what are still doing up?" she asked yawning. "I couldn't sleep" was his answer. Arohi nodded her head and the two of them stared out at the ocean for a few minutes not saying anything. "It's so beauitful" Arohi said softly. Arjun looked at her and nodded in agreement. "Beautiful" he repeated but he wasn't looking at the water he was staring instead at her. The two stared at eachother and Arjun shook his head as if to clear it. "What are you eating?" he said. "Strawberry icecream" she answered back and took a bite. "Here let me have some" he said reaching for the bowl. Arohi held the bowl out of his reach. "No, get your own this one's mine." Arjun reached for the bowl again but Arohi got up and took a few steps back. "Nope" she said laughing. Arjun made another move for the bowl and she sidestepped him laughing. Oh we're going to play that game Arjun thought. Just as Arohi was about to make a run for it he grabbed her, and as she squirmed and giggled he pulled her closer. Arohi stopped laughing, and looked up at him. "Arohi you have some icecream on your face' he said huskily. " Let me get it for you." Arjun took his thumb and rubbed it on the corner of Arohi's mouth and then took the thumb and sucked on it as if he was tasting something. "Delicious" he said softly looking at her with those intense eyes. "Let's have another taste" and he bent down and put his lips on hers and Arohi was lost. The kiss was intense, they couldn't get close enough to eachother. He deepened the kiss and she kissed him back with everything she had. His hands were on her hips pulling her even closer and her hands were in his hair pulling his head closer to her. They couldn't get enough of eachother. The sound of honking pulled them slowly out of their trance. Arohi couldn't quite clear her head, but she thought she now heard banging on her front door. Arjun still had his hands on Arohi's hips. He shook his head to as if to clear it. They both walked to the front door, who could it be at this hour. Arohi opened the door to find what could only be a super model. She was tall and gorgeous and looking to done up for 4 in the morning. "Who was she" "Hi, can I help you" Arohi asked. The "super model" looked past Arohi and screamed with joy. " Baby I missed you" she said as she pushed past Arohi and ran into Arjun's arms. Leaving both Arohi and Arjun shocked.
