Chapter 39

Gautam's POV

" What is the hurry, beautiful? At least let your favourite doctor cure your laughter fit. " Before she could say anything, I shut her up with my lips.

Her eyes got as big as saucers the moment my lips touched hers. Her very soft plump lips were inviting me to caress them with mine. I was really tempted to kiss her for a very long time and could not resist the urge to taste them.

I started sucking her lower lip and she was shivering now. I pulled her closer to me and our bodies were touching now. I ran my fingers in her hair. She closed her eyes. Her lips were so soft and sweet just like her. I licked her lips and she gasped, I deepened the kiss. It was a soft slow romantic kiss.

I wanted to keep kissing her like that, but I had to stop there as we were getting short of breath. I felt that she shuddered. She was so sweet and innocent. I released her and she stood there as if she was grounded.

I would have kissed those lips the moment she said she had a crush on me. But I couldn't trust what she said. Moreover Sid was there and she had that silly condition that I can't even react to that. How could she think that I would shout at her or kill her? I wouldn't have done that even if she took the name of someone else. I was pleasantly surprised.... no, shocked when she took my name. I would have taken her in my arms and kissed her senseless but I controlled my feelings.

She was still blushing and her face, ears, neck all were red like anything and she was looking everywhere but at me. My very shy innocent tomato...

" So what were you saying.... that you had a crush on me? Then why the hell did you not tell me earlier. Do you know I felt guilty whenever I felt a pull towards you. Were you making fun of me when I said that I will find your crush and..... Well, let's not even discuss what I said after that. "

" No, but you looked so cute at that time. It was hilarious. Imagine bringing yourself in front of me and telling me to...... do that. Now tell me, what shall I do, Mr Real boyfriend? " She was smiling shyly.

" Forget that I ever said that. "

" You even thought that I had a crush on Siddharth? I don't understand, how could you think that it was Siddharth of all the people? " She was laughing.

" Well, he had most of the qualities you said the guy had, you had a crush on. Sid is older than you, he is a doctor... No wait... a cute doctor as you said, he is quite handsome, smart, intelligent, mature, caring, independent, dependable. "

" Hey, but I never told you about him being a doctor. And when did I say that he was a cute doctor??? " I was shocked.

" Well you told me at Mehul's farm house... "

" No I did not.. "

" You did honey... "

" But I don't remember... "

" We were sitting near that pond and then after some time you slept. You were sleeping at that time."

" What??? You asked me questions while I was sleeping. That is unethical. How could you do that? "

" Unethical ?? Was it ethical to let me burn with jealousy? Was it ethical to not let me know how you felt for me? I was curious to know about that guy."

" So what did I say? "

" Oh you said he is so cute... cute doctor. Then I asked you, who is your most favourite man as you were not telling me more about him..."

"And??? " I was scared to know what I said... as I can't lie while sleeping.

" And you said that it was me and I was... so cute. Then I asked, how much do you like me and you said, too much... "

" I did? "

" Yes... "

" But actually, I am stupid... you said he was approximately 27 years old, and Sid is only 25. I don't know why? I was so green with jealousy, when Sid started flirting with you."

" He flirts in a very lighthearted way. It was nothing serious about it. Neither he nor I had any feelings for eachother. He was just teasing you as you were being over possessive and was answering him for me, when he was flirting with me. He is really funny just like uncle. "

" I forgot that you said, I was your favorite. I forgot that you turn into a tomato around me. You could not fake the blush... I would have guessed, if Sid had not come. "

" Now I understand why you were behaving differently when I came to tell you about his phone call. "

" Hmmm " I smiled and caressed her cheeks and jaw with the back of my fingers.

" I wanted to beat that cousin of yours as you said you love him... But then he said he likes Prachi and I came to know that he was your cousin who kept all the irritating boys away from you. " she was smiling beautifully.

" So that day you got jealous when I was talking to Amit and all of a sudden your mood changed ? You were enjoying the food so much and all of a sudden lost your appetite. "

" Hmmm.. obviously. Listen I am a very possessive man and you are mine. " She just shook her head and smiled.

" Let's go sweetie before your one brother-in-law beats another. " I said, winking at her.

I caught her hand and we went to her house. Both the guys were smiling. That was weird. What was so funny about it?

" Come Maurvi, we were waiting for the last 30 mins, for your 5 mins to get over." Kshitij said and I smiled and she started blushing.

" I hope you explained everything to him. What took you so long? Both of you are flushing. Bhai are you ok, with him being her brother-in-law now? " Said Sid and we all saw her getting converted into a tomato.

" Shut up Sid... " He smiled teasingly and went home.

" Ummm sorry Kshitij... I didn't know... So... "

' It's ok, don't worry. In fact I am very happy about it. Now that she has a boyfriend at least I don't have to bother about finding one for her. I wanted to tell Noopur but her phone is not reachable. "

" No please, don't... I will tell her myself or she will kill me. " She said to him.

" She said that she has a tentative plan to come here for Holi. She might come here by tomorrow."

" Wow !!! I would love that. But you will not tell her anything. ok ?"

" Fine, I won't. Now I can tell, my would be father-in-law that finally his elder daughter has found someone and would be ready to get married now.."

" Oh hello, If you will do that, I swear I will not get married for the next 2 years."

" What?? Why ? Are you crazy?" Both kshitij and I said together and looked at her.

" Hey Maurvi, you can't do that. Have mercy on me. You have to get married soon, I can't wait for so long." Kshitij said with a shocked face.

" Hello, Mr Brother-in-law. I think you are saying this line to the wrong sister. This is my line, which I was about to say to her. "

" Oh please, you know what I mean... Her father is adamant that he would get his elder daughter married first. So if she doesn't get married first, how would I marry my Noopur?

" Yes, yes I know now but still think before you speak as I would punch you next time you say that. " I glared at him and he smiled and raised his both hands in surrender.

" Will you two please stop that? Kshitij, you can't tell my parents like this... I would do that in a few days. We just confessed to each other. We need some time... " She said to him and he nodded.

" But please, tell them soon. "

" Hmm."

" Ok beautiful, so now I will take your leave... I have to go for a meeting. I am already getting late. It was nice meeting you, Gautam." He shook hands with me and lightly hugged Maurvi and went away.
