Rehaan's P.O.V

Talking to Ahana always made me feel good. Just listening to her voice makes me calm. I don't know, there is something about her that drives me towards her.

The way she blushes for every tiny thing, the way she tucks those strands of stray hair behind her ear whenever she's nervous, the way she stutters, her innocence, just everything about her attracts me.

She doesn't even know how beautiful she is. And honestly? I love it. It just makes her more beautiful. And I get to pamper her and tell her how beautiful she is. Inside out.

Gosh.

I'm turning mushy.

I'm never mushy.

I wasn't even mushy with Natasha. She was the only other girl that I had an official relationship with.

After I spoke to Ahana, I lied down on my bed staring at the ceiling, smiling. Just then I was shaken out of my trance. Like literally.

"What the-?"

"You arse! You never told me about this girl!" I heard a very familiar voice snap.

How on earth did he get here? "What are you doin-ow!" He kept hitting me. Man he's gotten stronger. The bugger has been hitting the gym.

"What am I doing? What the f#ck is wrong with you?!" he yelled.

"Stop hitting me first. And what did I do?" I asked Karan.

Karan Johar.

Yes. It's the name of the director.

No. He's not the director.

"What did you do?! You hid the fact that you're getting married from ME! That's what you did!" He said.

Whoa.

I forgot to tell him about Ahana.

My own best friend doesn't know about my girl.

Wow. I'm one pathetic friend.

"Do you have anything to say Malhotra?" He asked. I sighed. "Well where do I start?" "Oh I don't know, maybe from the beginning?"

I rolled my eyes and said, "It's too long." "Then make it brief!" he snapped.

Okay. He's in bad mood.

"Fine. But how did you get here?" I asked him. He didn't even tell me that he was going to come today.

"I'll tell you all that later. For now, tell me about your girl." He said. I smiled when he said 'your girl'.

It makes me feel nice to think of Ahana as my girl. Ahana Rehaan Malhotra. Has a nice ring to it. Would she take my last name? I really hope so. I want everyone to know that she's mine.

"Bro! Jeez that girl has gotten you wrapped around her little finger. Please don't get all mushy man. It's gross." He said.

"I'm not getting mushy." I muttered.

"Oh and please, please tell me this one isn't like Natasha. That girl was a pure pain in the arse." He said. He actually looked worried.

"No. She's nothing like Natasha." I said. It's true. Natasha was what you call hot. And that was only based on looks. The girl had been with six people before me. She was like this vicious goddess of seduction.

"Man! Stop. Spacing. Out." Karan said, hitting my head. I groaned and rubbed the sore spot where he hit.

"Sorry. What was I saying? Oh ya! Ahana is nothing like Natasha." I said proudly.

"Ah. So that's her name. What is she like?" he asked.

"She's beautiful." I said, a bit dreamily.

"Wow. You're whipped. I need to meet this girl. She must be some miracle worker cause she's gotten you to fall in love with her." He said, looking surprised.

"I'm not whipped. And wait. I don't love her." I said, with a hint of doubt.

I like her. Yes. But love? Do I love Ahana? Maybe. These feelings are very strong. It's so much more than what I felt for Natasha.

"You love her. It's obvious." He stated like he knew everything. "Do you have a picture of her?" he continued.

"Yea I do." I said and got my phone. I opened gallery and showed him pictures of Ahana. He whistled. "Good choice man. You chose a hot one."he said.

Somehow, even though he is my best friend, I did not like what he just said. I felt like smacking him.

"Whoa. Chill man." He said. What? I didn't even say anything to him. I looked at him and he pointed at... my hands? I looked down. Oh. I had them clenched into fists. I didn't even know I did that.

"I won't hit on her. I promise." He said. He looked pretty sincere.

"You better not." I said, less irritated. "Okay man. Chill. So, tell me about her. Or wait, can I meet her?" he asked, hopeful.

"She's very different. She's someone who understands me. She's smart, caring, gentle and she being so beautiful is just a bonus. Compliment her and her face will turn into this beautiful shade of pink. She's shy and bold at the same time. She's not exactly what you call 'hot' or 'sexy'. She's more of a 'cute' and 'pretty' girl." I said.

Karan was smiling. "She seems really nice." He said. "She is." I agreed.

"When's the marriage?" he asked, trying to look mad cause I didn't tell him about her. Trying.

"Oh yea that. We're not getting married. Well not yet."I said, sadly.

"Whoa. What? You're not getting married?!" he asked me, shocked.

"No no. What I meant was I want to get married to her but I don't know if she wants to get married to me. We're still getting to know each other and I want her to know me well before getting married." I explained.

"You're that serious eh? And by the way, she must be some great person if hasn't jumped your bones already." He said laughing.

I smacked his head. "Shut up."

"But I'm serious. Girls throw themselves at you. Literally. I just find it really surprising that a girl who isn't lesbian and isn't married and doesn't have a boyfriend, didn't hit on you. Wait, she's not lesbian or she doesn't have a boyfriend right?" he rambled.

I rolled my eyes. "No. She's not lesbian. And no, she doesn't have a boyfriend." I replied.

"How do you know?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

"She's told me okay?" I said. "What did she tell you?" he asked. I took a deep breath. He's starting to annoy me.

"She told me she has had no boyfriend before and before you ask, I trust her okay?" I said, annoyed. "Okay man. But maybe she hasn't had any boyfriends because she isn't attracted to men? Maybe we should ask her."

Okay. That's it.

"Ouch! Ah! Okay I'm sorry. Stop that. It hurts!" he exclaimed while I was hitting him. "We are not asking her anything!" I said.

"You sure? Cause it would be weird if you got married and then found out she's lesbian."

"Shut up!"

*15 minutes later.*

Ahana's P.O.V

I heard my phone buzz. Who's calling me now?
It was Rehaan. I smiled. Thank God Nidhi has fallen asleep. 

But my smile disappeared. Why was he calling? Is he bailing on me? I sighed. I knew this was too good to be true.

I reluctantly picked up the call. "Hello?"

"Uh Hey.." he said. Great! He sounds nervous. It's definitely bad news.

"Hi." I said. "I just had something to tell you." He said. Well more like mumbled.

He's bailing on me. It's obvious.

"Okay. It's fine. I understand." I said trying to not sound sad. There was silence after I spoke. Maybe he's feeling guilty.

Good.

"Uh what?" he said. What? "Huh?"

"You understand what? I didn't even say anything." He said, this time more confidently. "Uh I understand if you can't make it tomorrow." I said, confused.

"Wait, what? I never said that!" he exclaimed. Why's he so surprised? What else was he going to say?

"You implied it." I said. "No! I did not imply that. I am making it tomorrow. Why would I bail?" he said.

"I don't know. I thought you called to tell me that. Well I assumed." I said feeling happy and embarrassed.

"Well you assumed wrong. We are going out tomorrow." He stated. "Okay. Why did you call then?" I asked. I could hear another voice. Another male voice. It sounded like someone was laughing.

I heard Rehaan groan. Why is he groaning?

"I uh wanted to ask you something." He said. He sounded nervous again. "Okay..?" I said unsurely. What does he want to ask now?

"So uh you said you never had any boyfriends right?" He asked. Why is asking me this? I sighed, "Mhhm"

"Yea so uhm why didn't you have any boyfriend?" he asked. Huh? "What do you mean?" I asked, puzzled.

"Uh wh-why didn't you have any boyfriends?" he asked again. "Uhh cause I didn't really want any?" I said.

I could hear someone speak to Rehaan. Who is that? "You mean you didn't like them?" He asked. Like who?

"Like who?" I asked. "Uhm you know the guys who liked you." He stated. "How do you know if guys liked me?" I asked. I never told him anything regarding this.

"It's kind of obvious Ahana. You must have had guys fall at your feet." He said. I did not have guys fall at my feet. Yes, there were a couple of them who asked me out but it wasn't like what he's assuming.

"Uh no?" I said. I heard two groans.

"Oh my god. He wants to know if you're a lesbian." Another unfamiliar voice said. What? Where did he get that from?

"Who is this?" I asked. I heard him groan. "I am Karan. Rehaan's best friend. I know he hasn't told you about me but trust me, I am his best friend." He explained.

Oh.

Rehaan did not mention about him. "Okay." I said. "Uh so you're lesbian or not?" he asked rudely.

"Give the phone to Rehaan please." I said. "Oh my god, just answer the question. He's worried here!"
Karan exclaimed.

"Yea so just give him the phone!" I said. I heard shuffling and an 'ow' and I heard Rehaan speak. "Hey. I'm sorry about him."

"It's fine. And no. I'm not a lesbian." I said. I don't know if I was amused, confused or just weirded out.

"I'm sorry about that too." He said. "It's fine. And just because I never dated, doesn't mean I don't like men." I said.

"Yea I know. I'm sorry." He sounded embarrassed. I chuckled. "How many times will you apologize? It's fine." I said.

"Yea okay and that was my best friend. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about him. I'll introduce you to him soon." He said.

"How about tomorrow during your date?" Karan suggested. No!!

"No!" Rehaan snapped. Good.

"Ooh so you want alone time with her eh? But c'mon man! I'm free, you're free and she's free. Why not? You guys can keep meeting up later. Even after y'all get married." I think Karan is a lot like Nidhi.

Nosy, annoying (sometimes) and mischievous.

"No." Rehaan said.

"Hey I'll talk to you tomorrow?" he asked. "Okay."I said.

"Good night. See you tomorrow." He said. I said the same to him and heard Karan say "You forgot something Rehaan. An 'I love you.' It's alright. I'll say it."

"I lov-Ow! Sorry. He loves you Ahana! By-ow!" he exclaimed and the call cut.

I shook my head and laughed. But did Rehaan actually say that to Karan? I hope so. I squealed and went to bed.

Bethany's P.O.V

"Hello?"

"I got the information you were asking for." Jay said.

"Everything?" I asked. "Yea. Every single thing."

"Good." I said and cut the call. Ahana eh? Rehaan will be mine. Only Mine.
