Neil stirred in sleep and opened his eyes and quickly his hand went to his neck as it's paining as he slept in totally uncomfortable position. He realized he was in Guest room and everything striked back to his mind. He frowned closing his eyes. He ran his hands through his hair while remembering what happened yesterday.

Flashback

Avni stopped and turned to see him again. Neil dropped his clothes on the ground and kissed her not thinking about anything making Avni startle for minute but she started responding to the kiss.

He broke the kiss, touching his forehead with hers and their eyes were closed.

"Slap me Avni... " He know he did wrong of kissing her without her consent. That's why he want her slap him to make him regain his sense.

"Stop me before I lose my control again.." His eyes were still closed while Avni opened her eyes to look at him.

He slowly opened his eyes, moving away from her looking at her. While Avni hold his collar to stop him from moving and kissed him.

Neil also gave in and they were kissing each other. Neil's hands were on her cheeks deepening the kiss while her hands were around his neck.

Avni suddenly pushed him back breaking the kiss. She was lost while Neil looked at her confused. His face turned into guilt thinking he did wrong by kissing her without realizing that she also kissed him back.

"Avni.. " He stepped forward towards her while Avni left from there.

He looked at her retreating figure. Later on when she came back to her room, he found him nowhere.

Flashback ends.

"You are such a Dope Neil.. " He said to himself.

" I should apologize to her ... " He said and stood up from the floor and started moving.

He entered the room and found her all ready to her office.

" Avni.. " He called her while she turned to find him.

"Neil... " After gaining all her courage, she moved near him with a blank face which made him frown more.

"Let me ask you only one question.. " She said to him before he could respond to her calling.

" Have I ever kissed you before ?... when Yesterday.. When we...kissed... ... I felt like that... That.. It already happened... " She said to him while Neil understood why she reacted that way yesterday. His face fell as he didn't know how to say to her.

" Did I? " She asked him again seeing him silent.

" So I did it? .. " She didn't meet his eyes and said looking at ground and about to turn while stopped when he spoke.

"Yess we did... " He told her while she turned immediately.

"And you didn't cared to tell me.. " She said to him while they were looking at each other.

She quickly picked her bag and left.

"Avni... Listen to me.. " He called her following her but she left.

"Argh!!.. " Neil hold his hair in a fist.

Later on evening

Avni left the office and found him waiting for her. She looked at him and started moving towards him and sat in the car without speaking anything. Neil sighed and thought to speak to her after reaching home.

Later on

Avni got down from the car and instantly Neil stopped her blocking her way.

"Will you let me explain ? " He asked looking at her seriously.

" I don't wanna hear anything... I am already embarrassed " She said and about to move while Neil hold her hand stopping her. While she looked at him.

"You need not to be!.... Yess!... You kissed me that day... When you were drunk... " He said to her without letting her speak.

" It's a Mistake Avni....It isn't your fault " He said to her.

"Then Yesterday was a mistake too..? " She asked him looking at his eyes.

"No! ...We know that its not a mistake... ." He said quickly looking straight into her eyes while Avni just looked at him.

.....

She came after freshening up and saw Neil standing on the Porch lost onto his thoughts.

" I know it's not a mistake when I kissed her yesterday... When I saw her all I wanted is to kiss her... It was not such a pleasant thought... And i hate myself for letting my thought to control me... I never wanted to do without her consent... I know she might be angry on me... And that's the right thing to do too... " He frowned thinking of how she left without saying anything.

"Have I fallen for her?... Will I able to be a Good Boyfriend?... Boyfriend?... That stage has never been in this story... Will I be a Good Husband?.... The life of married couple were always been messy and chaotic.....Fights and Sacrifices...
And I don't want anything like that to be with Avni....I just love what we have now.... But will it be same?... My thoughts are secondary... The First thing is that... Do Avni feels the same for me? " He closed his eyes thinking of everything. He inhaled deeply feeling the heaviness in his heart.

He turned to go to bed and saw her entering the Porch after getting freshened up. He just looked at her while she was looking at him.

"Avni....I... Wanted.... " Before he could say how he feels, Avni interrupted.

" Neil.... Let's live like a couple...." She said to him while he looked at her surprised.

" I mean like...I feel like We are having a Fling.... I can understand it happens... I know.. We are not really into each other and this thing is going on.... Let's live together... Like a Couple...till the day you leave to Paris...May be by doing that...we can get over that feeling easily... " She said looking everywhere but not him while he just looked at her. He felt hurt by hearing her words, Perhaps realising Avni consider this as a Fling or or may be thinking Avni don't feel the same about him.

She was waiting for his reply and looked at him hearing only silence from him.

" You can take your time Neil... " She said and about to go but stopped when he spoke.

"Fine Avni... Let's do that... " He replied while she turned and looked at him.

"If that what you want ....If that's what you feel... I am ready to do that... May be you are right....It might be a fling...and as you said I might also able to overcome this feeling " He thought looking at her.
