*Ishan stirred from his slumber, blinking away the remnants of sleep as he sat up on the bed. His eyes widened as Shubman emerged from the bathroom, clad only in a towel wrapped around his waist, his damp hair tousled from the shower.*

Ishan: (blushing furiously) Uh, hi... Shubman.

Shubman: (smirking) Good afternoon, Ishan. Sleep well?

*Ishan's cheeks flushed even deeper as he struggled to form coherent words, his mind spinning with a myriad of thoughts.*

Ishan: (stammering) Y-yeah, I did. Um... You... you took a shower?

Shubman: (nodding) Yeah, just got back. Sorry if I startled you.

*Ishan's heart raced at the sight of Shubman's bare chest, his gaze involuntarily trailing over the toned muscles before snapping back to Shubman's eyes.*

Ishan: (clearing his throat) Uh, no, it's okay. I mean, you... you look... um... nice.

*Shubman's smirk widened at Ishan's flustered response, a playful glint in his eyes as he approached the bed.*

Shubman: (teasingly) Just nice?

*Ishan's cheeks burned brighter as he averted his gaze, feeling the weight of Shubman's presence beside him on the bed.*

Ishan: (mumbling) Well, um... more than nice.

*Shubman's laughter filled the room as he ruffled Ishan's hair affectionately, a warmth spreading in his chest at Ishan's shy admission.*

Shubman: (gentle tone) You're cute when you blush, you know that?

*Ishan's heart fluttered at Shubman's words, a rush of emotions swirling within him as he stole a glance at Shubman, their eyes locking in a moment of unspoken connection amidst the lingering awkwardness of the encounter.*

*As the moments passed, the air in the room hung heavy with tension, the awkwardness palpable between Ishan and Shubman. Shubman, ever the playful one, couldn't resist teasing Ishan, his flirty banter filling the space.*

Shubman: (grinning) So, Ishan, have you been admiring the view while I was in the shower?

Ishan: (nervously) Uh, I-I don't know what you're talking about, Shubman.

*Despite Ishan's attempts to deflect, Shubman continued his playful advances, inching closer to Ishan on the bed.*

Shubman: (teasingly) Come on, Ishan. Don't act like you weren't checking me out. I saw the way you blushed.

*Ishan's cheeks flushed even deeper as he tried to evade Shubman's gaze, his heart pounding in his chest.*

Ishan: (stammering) I-I wasn't... I mean, I-I was just... uh...

*Before Ishan could finish his sentence, Shubman swiftly pinned him down on the bed, hovering over him with a mischievous glint in his eyes.*

Shubman: (playfully) Gotcha! Now, spill the truth, Ishan. Why are you playing so hard to get?

*Ishan squirmed beneath Shubman's weight, his breath catching in his throat as he gazed up at Shubman's earnest expression.*

Ishan: (softly) Shubman, I... I don't know what to say...

Shubman: (tenderly) You don't have to say anything, Ishan. Just be honest with yourself. What do you want?

*Ishan's mind raced with conflicting emotions, his heart yearning for Shubman but his fears holding him back.*

Ishan: (hesitantly) I-I want... I want...

*Shubman's gaze softened as he brushed a stray lock of hair from Ishan's forehead, his touch sending shivers down Ishan's spine.*

Shubman: (gentle tone) It's okay, Ishan. Take your time. I'll be here, waiting for you.

*With those comforting words, Shubman leaned in closer, his lips hovering just inches from Ishan's, a silent invitation for Ishan to embrace his true desires.*

*As their lips met in a tender embrace, time seemed to stand still for Ishan and Shubman. Lost in the moment, Ishan's heart soared with an indescribable rush of emotions. However, as the reality of the situation dawned on him, Ishan's senses returned in a flood of panic.*

Ishan: (pulling away abruptly) No... No, I can't...

*With tears threatening to spill from his eyes, Ishan pushed Shubman away and bolted from the room, leaving Shubman stunned and bewildered.*

Shubman: (calling after Ishan) Ishan, wait!

*But it was too late. Ishan had already disappeared down the hallway, his footsteps echoing in the silence of the empty house. Shubman, clad only in a towel, hesitated for a moment, torn between chasing after Ishan and respecting his need for space.*

Shubman: (frustrated whisper) Damn it...

*With a heavy sigh, Shubman quickly grabbed some clothes and hastily dressed himself before rushing out of the room in pursuit of Ishan, his heart pounding with worry and regret.*

Shubman: (calling out) Ishan, please wait! Let's talk about this!

*But as Shubman reached the end of the hallway, he found himself faced with an empty corridor, Ishan nowhere in sight. With a sinking feeling in his chest, Shubman knew that he had let Ishan slip away, his chance at reconciliation slipping through his fingers like sand.*

*Feeling a sense of defeat wash over him, Shubman leaned against the wall, his mind swirling with thoughts of what could have been. He knew that he had to find Ishan and make things right, but the uncertainty of Ishan's feelings weighed heavily on his heart.*

*With a determined resolve, Shubman set off in search of Ishan, determined to mend the rift between them and prove his unwavering commitment to their budding relationship.*
