He didn't answer . Soon we reached a cottage . We went inside reached the bedroom and Manik crashed on the bed and slept.......

Nandini pov

Uff! Sleepy head! Even I m tired so I should also sleep.

Pov ends

There was no other place rather than bed so she slept there . Three candles were lit in the room , the only source of light .

Back to 7:00 pm

Dhuruv place

Dhuruv pov

Bell ringed . I came and opened the door . Aliya was there struggling with her keyboard. I stepped forward and held it for her . Our hands brushed and eyes met . Aliya broke it . We came inside . I placed the keyboard and brought my guitar .

Aliya : so I told ya that I cracked a new song .

Dhuruv : yeah! And I told that I am eager to listen to it

Aliya smiling : so here it goes .......

She sang yaaram and gave lyrics to dhuruv and even he sang the song .they had a romantic couple dance together and later chit chatting , they dozed off.

Night 12:00 pm

A rat came in the room and started creating noises . Nandini woke up and saw the rat and started screaming . She by mistake sat on Manik's stomach , he also woke up abruptly coughing .

Manik : Kya Hua Nandini?

Nandini: Manik ....... Chuha......rat.....see ( panting )

Manik : so? What's there to dance on the bed and scream ?

Nandini : I am not dancing . I am scared . I can't sleep . Plz go and get it out of here na .

Manik : no way ! I am tired I am gonna sleep . U keep on dancing .

Nandini : hooooo! So mean .

She started shaking Manik and even he couldn't sleep because of this . He got mischievous.

Manik : what will I get in return ?

Nandini : anything you ask for .

Manik : ok then.

He got the rat out of there.

Nandini : thank god ! Now I can sleep .

Manik: nope ! Not before my gift .

Nandini : Kya chahiye tumhe?

Manik : that u don't worry about .

He came near .

Nandini : Manik ! Not now . I have not brushed yet .

Manik : no! I want it now .

Nandini : morning main . Pakka .

Manik : ok ! Gud night !

Nandini: sweet dreams .

Both dozed off cuddling into each other .

Morning 8:00 am

The cottage......

Manik pov

I woke up and was surprised by the sight I saw . Nandini was covered in a towel and it seemed like she just took bathe , she was trying to find clothes in the cupboard. She looked so sexy . I couldn't resist myself . I hoped from the bed and within no time my hand was on her waist and I was inhaling her scent from her neck. She was stunned by my sudden move .

Nandini : Manik! I thought u were sleeping .

Manik : I was but u woke me up.

Nandini : leave me Manik . I need to go to the washroom .

I wasn't in a mood to leave

Manik : ur promise ?

Nandini : woh woh...... Ummm.....

She didn't say anything. So I proceeded . I cupped her delicate face and came near . She placed her hand on my shoulders putting weight there . The distance was decreasing as the closeness was increasing. Soon our lips met . It was soft kiss which got wild when she started responding . Her mouth tasted like strawberry . I love that taste . I broke the kiss to breathe . She had her eyes closed and her face had turned red . Omg! How can someone blush this much, I wondered .

Manik near her ears : open ur eyes nandu .

Nandini didn't answer and had her eyes still closed .

Manik : fine then !

He started moving his hands on her arm . She opened her eyes . She was shivering .

Manik: Nandini u r cold . Go change .

Nandini : I have nothing to wear.

Manik: actually there is something .

Nandini : what ?

Manik went near the cupboard and took out a sky blue kurti with black leggings.

Manik: here u go!

Nandini : thanx

She went inside and I waited for her......

Short update ... I know next time I'll try to make it long . Thank u all !
