"Shehnaaz She was just my friend...", Sidharth said breaking the silence as felt silence awkward between them. Shehnaaz never keeps quiet and this fact has made him habitual of her talks. To be honest he was getting irritated with Shefali and her talks. Just because of her Shehnaaz was quiet. He noticed Shehnaaz's anger but he was not having any other option because he respect every girl. He knows that her presence annoyed Shehnaaz, and that's why he tried to justify himself.

"Like me?", Shehnaaz asked angrily and looked aside because she is insecure now. What if she remains his friend forever? When they will make thier relationship official? When she will be able to hold his hand with right?

"There is a big difference between you and her. She is not my family. And fans always tie me with my co-actors which doesn't matter to me because I will never let them control my life. I know only one thing that you are my life partner", Sidharth said to which Shehnaaz hummed in response. She is still not satisfied with his words because she wants him to hug her tightly and claim her with the right but he never does that. He romances other girls but not her. It is because she is not attractive?

"I can't see you quiet. Please say something", Sidharth whispered and held her hand on the table. Shehnaaz looked at thier hands and him. Why did he hurt her then? She then asked herself, Why does it matter so much? Why after confessing her feelings to him, her expectations are rising and she is feeling that he will not marry her?

"What should I say Sidharth?", Shehnaaz asked. Her anger calmed down a bit feeling his support. Sidharth rubbed his thumb on her palm softly and pulled his chair near Shehnaaz. He is again lost in her, how beautiful she is. Just his girl and his fiancee. He noticed Shehnaaz hair was pushed back and her neck is visible. A sudden urge to kiss her neck came into his mind, he moved towards her shoulder and kissed on her shoulder. Shehnaaz started to breathe heavily due to the proximity.

She closed her eyes feeling his hot lips on her shoulder, she felt like she is on top of the world. She is feeling pleased with his closeness. She clutched her dress tightly, she don't mind Sidharth claiming her because she is comfortable with him and mainly she loves him. Suddenly she remembered they are in the cafe and pushed Sidharth slowly.

"Sidharth we are not at home", Shehnaaz said which made Sidharth realise his action. He widened his eyes in shock thinking how he lost control over himself. Damn why she wore off shoulder dress? He thought and sat on his seat, he looked at the ground with guilt fidgeting with his fingers. He doesn't know how he lost himself. He doesn't want to ruin her reputation, he knows if people got to know about them then they will defame her saying she is using him and they will never let her work with another male.

"I'm sorry", Sidharth apologized as he don't want Shehnaaz to feel like he is using her body. He wants their relationship to be special and pure, not lust. He tugged her hair in the front and drank a whole glass of water to control himself.

"Control Sidharth"

Again his sorry word made Shehnaaz feel in the wrong direction. She started to think why he is apologizing. Why did he never close their distance? Is she ugly? Or maybe she is not stunning enough to take his attention. Only if she knew how he desires to make her his but he controls himself thinking about her reputation because he is well aware of Bollywood.

"Talk anything about your projects, or your fans o... or about me", he said, indirectly asking if she thinks of him as a cheap man or not. Her choice and thinking matter to him a lot now. He doesn't want her to feel uncomfortable around him.

"For me, you are an idiot both who can't see anything ", Shehnaaz said angrily irritated by his behaviour and then looked down realising her words. But she doesn't regret it because he should understand what to say and when to apologise. What was the need to apologise now?

"What do I need to see? And If I'm an idiot then you are my wife... No girlfriend You are also an idiot", Sidharth Said and then smiled seeing her expression changing as he noticed her smile

"Smile openly nahh. I want to see you happy. Otherwise, I will cry seeing you sad", Sidharth said dramatically which made Shehnaaz giggle. She was going through a whirlpool of emotions a minute ago. She was hurt, irritated, awkward and also felt lucky that Sidharth kissed her shoulder. She now understood how to hide her emotions that's why nobody gets to know about her actual feelings

"Will you cry?", Shehnaaz asked

"Yes, I'm an actor baby. Try me", Sidharth asked in a husky voice and was about to touch her hair when he remembered what happened some time ago and stepped back. He intertwined thier fingers together and closed his eyes to gain strength. Shehnaaz looked at him confused, what he is doing and why?

"No. Tell me how's your next shoot going?", Shehnaaz asked. She felt nervousness engulfing her when Sidharth kissed her knuckles. Her cheeks started to heat finding him getting attracted towards Her. She felt like dancing and kissing her palm where he just kissed

"It's nice. Web series are more good than movies. I would love to do one with you", Sidharth said in a husky voice and a smirk which sent shivers down Shehnaaz's spine. She looked at him wondering why he is smirking now.

"Wohh then I will watch that for sure and will come to see you. Will they allow it? Why are you looking like this?", Shehnaaz asked, she is unaware of the web series as she never saw any and nobody talked about same with her. For her acting is just limited to bed sheets covering couples in an intimate way as she saw on television.

"Nobody will stop you. If I don't pick up your call then call Vishal and he will take you to me", Sidharth said and pulled Shehnaaz's cheeks

"You are a baby, my baby", Sidharth whispered and they both ordered food for themselves and started to talk randomly. As usual, Shehnaaz kept talking and Sidharth kept adoring her sweet voice. He is a fan of her melodious voice. He smiled seeing her smiling and wish to see her smiling every time
_______________
3 days later Shehnaaz decided to meet Sidharth on his shoot, she called Sidharth but he didn't pick up her call which made her feel restless

"You know Vishal that outsiders are not allowed here", said the director when he noticed Shehnaaz

"She is very close to me and Sidharth and also new in this field. She will not reveal anything to anyone "

"Sidharth", Shehnaaz called him which Sidharth heard but ignored seeing many people already looking at him. He doesn't want people to ban her entrance here that's why he continued his shoot.

"You will never leave me right", asked the female protagonist

"Never. I'm incomplete without you. You are the light to my dark life and the reason I'm happy today. I learnt the definition of love from you. I love you", said Sidharth to the female protagonist looking into her eyes. He is a great actor and he knows how to shoot in different situations. His heart is screaming to go and hug Shehnaaz but he decided to do that after the shoot.

As per the written script female replied to his confession and started to unbutton his shirt. He let her do that and then when the female protagonist again whispered "I love you and I will die...", He didn't let her complete and kissed the female lead. Shehnaaz froze in her place seeing Sidharth kissing the girl in front of everyone

"For me, he always says he wants our relationship private ", Shehnaaz thought and opened her eyes to see them moving further. The female was only in her bra and underwear. Sidharth was only wearing his boxers. He kissed the female's every part of her body before picking her up and throwing her into bed. Shehnaaz couldn't control more and left from there as everything looked so real. How can Sidharth do this to her? How can he cheat her?

"Chii what were they showing? Cheap people and how can he... How can he kiss her in front of me", Shehnaaz asked herself with tears falling from her eyes. She stood near one corner and started to cry thinking about Sidharth's betrayal

"Cut", said the director and removed the thermocol which they placed near the camera. Sidharth immediately got up and asked the female if she is fine. To which she replied "yes".

They did the whole shoot altogether because before the female lead was hesitant to do the intimate scene in front of everyone but Sidharth supported her and said that this is just for once and then the story is serious to which she hummed. Sidharth motivated her and then this shoot finished.

"Thank you so much, Sidharth. Indeed you are the best person. I was so scared and nervous", said the female protagonist with teary eyes. This is her first time in web series, and seeing the shoot completed is making feel so happy.

"You also. I'm sure you will rock in future", Sidharth said and left from there. This girl is also like Shehnaaz who is sweet and gets scared very easily. He suddenly remembered Shehnaaz and ran to search Shehnaaz. Soon he found her leaning against the wall and crying.

"Why she is crying? Is it because she noticed me kissing?", He thought and started to move towards her in slow steps. He prayed to God for no misunderstanding because this is a part of his career. On big screens, this is very important.

"Shehnaaz", he called her name. Shehnaaz turned and looked at him angrily. Sidharth noticed her red teary-eyed and wiped her tears but Shehnaaz pushed his hand harshly.

After cheating on her how he dares to touch her. He lost this right today

"Don't touch me. How can you do this? If you never liked me you could have told me. We are not married so we would have separated but no. You love to cheat on someone right? You played with my feelings. For me, you always controlled yourself, even in the room but here. You were shamelessly romancing her.

You were feeling ashamed to expose our relationship to others but with her, you were enjoying romancing. Just because she is beautiful and hot Chik. I know you will never marry me Sidharth because you love cheating. I don't know how many girls are waiting just like me. You never said those cheesy lines to me but for her, you were showering love", Shehnaaz shouted at top of her voice angrily spitting venom. She is not in a good state of mind to differentiate between acting and reality. She said whatever came into her mind to show Sidharth down.

"Shut up just shut your mouth. Shehnaaz that was a part of the shoot. There is a big difference between reel and real life. She is no one to me. You are my real-life partner ", Sidharth said and was about to touch her shoulder but Shehnaaz moved back showing disgust at him. Sidharth looked down as his eyes glistened with tears seeing hate in her eyes for him. How he will explain things to her?

"For me, you always use to apologise for your behaviour that you kissed me because I was a mistake right? You never talked with me lovingly and never used those lines to me", Shehnaaz asked angrily

"No Shehnaaz. I was trying to behave as your life partner, not an actor Shehnaaz. And those lines looked too cheesy", Sidharth explains panicking what if she left him? He can't afford to lose her because a breakup is his biggest fear and he will not let this happen.

"Life partner... I don't think so because I feel you never liked me. I don't know which profit you are seeing in me", Shehnaaz said angrily

"Profit? I never touched you Shehnaaz, which profit I will get from you?", Sidharth asked angrily pulling her towards himself by her arm. Shehnaaz tried jerking him but couldn't because his hold was very tight

"You are with me because of your mother. You don't like me", Shehnaaz said and jerked him angrily with full force.

"Shehnaaz behave. I am explaining things to you. Can't you understand the difference between reel and real? You are my real life partner and that girl reel", Sidharth asked

"Real? I don't believe you will marry me ever. Who knows if you will like someone else in these years as you asked for a minimum of 5 years for marriage. I hate you for cheating me Sidharth", Shehnaaz said with tears. She is feeling very vulnerable right now while fighting with him. Sidharth froze in his place hearing her words. The only word which hurt him to the core is "hate". How can she say this? He tried his level best to make her feel uncomfortable and respected her decisions and what she did. Tears started to fall from his eyes and he didn't dare to wipe them also

"I... will marry... you only", his voice cracked in the middle as he felt too broken right now. He is one woman man then how can she blame him? He felt so bad finding hate in her eyes for him. He can't handle this right now, he needs to save their relationship otherwise he knows they will regret it badly

"Again a lie ", Shehnaaz said with a chuckle which angered him now. He is trying to show her the truth but she is not believing him. One idea struck his mind as he can't let her go. By marrying her she will be tied to him forever and will not be able to leave him

"Fine. Then I have to show it to you ", he said angrily and dragged her towards his car. He asked her to sit but Shehnaaz denied which angered him more

"SIT IN THE CAR SHEHNAAZ Today I'll marry you", Sidharth said angrily and forced her to sit inside the passenger seat and sat on the driving seat heading towards the court. He called his mother to reach there and also asked Shehbaaz to come with garland, vermillion and a nuptial chain

Mene thoda skip Kia as I can never write Sidharth with someone else.
Yes, I know Shehnaaz is wrong and maybe Sidharth's anger also but think from the character's perspective.

A girl can never see her man kissing someone. And if Sidharth wants to do that then he should assure Shehnaaz nth times that he loves her. Like in bb, he used to assure her what she mean to him. I am just trying to write something realistic so enjoy. I'm sure you will enjoy it further also❤️.
