______________

Roses are red, my face is too,
that only happens when I'm around you.

Avni : And second, a day without you all. She answered when Abeer raise his eyes for the second wish.

Rohan : A What.?

Avni : yeah, a day specifically tomorrow without you all, means no baatein, no phone calls, or messages or anything at all. Basically a girl's day out. Where we can do whatever we want. Meet whoever we want to. Talk to any one we like and also can find some cute handsome and sexy guys if we want.

Avni crosses her arms against her chest smiling evilly looking at their shocked faces.

Neil : you're not going for this girl's day out, right. He asked hopefully making the boys come out of the shock land.

Avni : Why, am I not a girl.? She asked giving him a sharp look pushing his hand away from her shoulder.

He can melt her with his sweet sugary talks and heart tingling smiles but how can she forgets his teasing and blackmailing she had gone through the whole day.

She understand she did few wrong things yesterday but she was drunk. You can't expect a drunk person to be in sense.

Neil : Yeah,.. No, I mean I didn't do anything but. He defend himself.

Avni : oh yeah, you clearly have done nothing, I believe you. She rolled her replying him sarcastically.

Avni : Be happy that I haven't ask your card. She continue looking at him.

Neil : um.. I won't mind, you can take it if you want. He lean sideway on the counter with a grin and wink at her.

She narrowed her eyes at his sudden flirty behaviour, and before she could retort something Abeer butted in.

Abeer : are you trying to flirt with my sister.? He narrowed his eyes and lean to the counter trying to be intimidate.

Neil : well she is my fiancée and I can do whatever I want. He retort back.

Avni : I am not. Did you forgot we are taking slow steps, boyfriend.? She whispered wiggling her eyes.

Neil : That's not how you were behaving yesterday, girlfriend. He smirked at her making her smile drop instantly.

Neil : and even though we're taking things at a slow steps I've got the right to flirt with you mi novia. He whispered back with a mischievous smile.
(My girlfriend)

Zach : What are you murmuring guys speak loud.

Neil turn to Abeer and gave him a smirk.

Neil : something personal, you don't want to hear it, do you.?? He wink at him while the rest three almost laugh looking at Abeer's distasteful face,and Avni's widened eyes.

DD : umm.. if everything is settled down then can we meet them. He asked breaking Abeer's glaring session.

Avni : yeah, you can.

As soon as these words left her mouth the four desperate husbands run outside the kitchen leaving her alone with her Idiot.

Avni turned to Neil who was already looling at her after everyone left.

Avni : what the heck was that. She smack his arm.

Neil : Truth. He simply answered.

Avni : whatever... She rolled her eyes.

Her phone pings for two three times with messages. She took out her phone to check the messages while the one standing in front of her was checking her out.

Avni : I have something to tell you. She squeal in excitement.

Neil : And I have something for you.

Avni : First me. I want to tell something really important and amazing.

Neil : No, First, I have something to show you.

Avni : No I'll say first, I have been controlling it for a long but now I can't.

Neil : No, First me. I have to show you something. Come. He hold her wrist and drag her out of the kitchen.

Avni : No you can't do this. She stop and pull her hand away.

Neil : Avni, trust me you'll love it.

Avni : And trust me you'll be overjoyed after knowing what I want to say.

Neil : okay let's do one thing, I first show you what I want to show and then listen what you want to say.

Avni : No. First listen what I want to say and then we'll see what you want to show. She crossed her arms against her chest saying out her point firmly.

Neil : Avni.. He put his hand on his waist and narrowed his eyes at her.

Avni : Neill.. She copied him.

Neil sigh and look away.

Avni : okay let's do stone paper scissor. Whoever win will go first.

Neil : What are we, 5.?

Avni : yes. Now get Ready and no cheating. She points her finger at him.

Neil rolled his eyes but stood facing her.

Avni : ready.? She asked pulling her sweat shirt sleeves up till her forearm.

Neil : we are not getting ready for a fight Junglee billi. And be quick or else I'm gonna drag you upstairs with me. Avni rolled her eyes at him and choose not to reply and focus on her game.

Avni : Okay., ready.? She again asked.

Neil : Avni, I'm dragging you upst---...

Avni : Stone paper scissors, shoot. She cut him off and loudly sang.

Avni huffs when both of their hands came forwards forming a stone. She still hit his large fist with her small one.

Neil : Very childish. He shook his head at her comparison of their fist.

Avni : Shush!!!!. Second round.

Avni smile widely and celebrate her win wholeheartedly when she crushed his fingers forming in a scissor with her small stone.

See, small yet useful.

Avni : yeeeiiiii... told you. Listen to me first. Grinning ear to ear she dance a little to show her happiness.

Neil : Fine, tell me what you wanted to.

Avni : eeeeeiiii.!!!!... She squeal in happiness ignoring Neil's boring face.

Neil : you keep celebrating your glorious victory I'm heading out.

Avni : ayyeee, wait.. she hold his hands to stop him.

Avni : Don't give me this attitude you'll thank me later on for such a great news.

Neil : And what is that great news.

Avni : can't tell you here.. Let's go to some quite place. She again squeal in excitement and held his hand to drag him outside.

Neil : well no place will be quite if you're there. He smirked but soon covered it seeing her glare she pass stopping in a mid way.

Avni : I'm letting it go cause I'm very happy right now, thank your stars. She turn around towards the backyard area which she came to know is secluded and it'll be a good place to talk there.

Neil : well I do thanks my stars every single time I saw you. He said just as they step inside the backyard.

Avni take a quick glance of the it and nodded her head in appreciation, liking the calm and beautiful backyard.

She turned face him with a smile on her face when they hear a bark. With a frown she look around, Neil chuckles at her cute frown face.

Neil : That's Levi, Zach's Golden retriever. He can't live without him. He points towards the patio where Levi - The golden retriever was tied.

Avni : He is super cute. She gushed over the cute pet wiggling to get out of his leash.

Neil : He is. He agreed with her and asked her what she wants to tell.

Avni : I have three news to tell. But first promise me you won't tell anyone.

Neil : It depends on what it is. She smack his arm and hold out her hand asking him to promise.

He rolled his eyes and and hold her hand. She and her suspense.

Avni : okay the first thing is not that exciting but just to tell you, the girls upstairs are not at all angry with their respective ones.

Neil eyes widened as he gape at her. Avni laugh at his expression.

Neil : They are seriously not angry or something.

Avni : Nahh!! just playing with them. But hey, you promised you won't tell them anything. So don't open your mouth. She threatens him at the end.

Neil : but why all the drama then.

Avni : to get a day to enjoy.

Neil : You are sounding like we are caging you.

Avni : Don't assume now, and hear the second thing. She said and took out her phone.

Neil : you all are so cruel, they all were literally worried and also cooking to pacify them, but only if they know. He rolled his eyes.

Avni : Hey you shut your mouth, don't show this sympathy now, you were also teasing them back. Neil's shook his head and was about to say something but Levi started barking again.

Neil : Wait for a second, I'll release that boy if not, Zach will get a heart stroke seeing his son tied and no one listening to him. He jogged towards the patio and release Levi.

Levi immediately run as soon as the leash was opened. Avni got startled when Levi jumped on her. She is not afraid to dogs they are cute but she never had came in contact with them directly since a long time. And seeing Levi jumping on her startled her.

Neil : Boy, calm down. He rushed to them and hold Levi. Avni kneel down and patted Levi head to which he instantly respond.

Neil : I see, like father you too get attached to this Junglee billi forgetting me huh!!.. Neil rub his head settling himself completely on the the ground folding his legs.

Levi seems to sense his sadness as he jumped on Neil's lap soon.

Avni : Levi, don't listen to him. He is jealous. He doesn't let anyone meet me properly. He is jealous that everyone loves me and not him. She runs her hand on Levi 's body.

Neil : Hha.. what a joke. Levi she cracks funny joke you hear that.

Avni : really.? She raised her brows at him but then smiles and show her phone to him.

Avni : If I was cracking a funny joke then why your friend betrayed you and tell me some thing important which you obviously had no idea huh!..

Neil : My friend.? How.. with this cake. He look at the cake picture which she show him ago.

Avni : see the sender.

Neil look to check the sender. He look up again at Avni with confusion.

Neil : Kunj.?

Avni : Guess who had the gender reveal yesterday and is having a cute baby boy in few months.

Neil eyes widened in shock followed by a look of betrayal. Avni laugh out loudly seeing his expression

Neil : I can't believe he hide this from me. He shook his not believing his friend got his first baby gender revels and he didn't say anything to him.

Avni : umm. That's Meher plan to keep away from you and not to tell you as a punishment.

Neil : Another punishment, how many times you all gonna punish us when you all are just pretending. And I can't believe my buddy got involved in it too. He release a Levi from his hold since he was wiggling too much to get out.

Avni again laugh ignoring his glares he was sending to her.

Neil : Laugh again and I'll see how you get chocolates. He got up on his knees and was hovering over her trying to intimidate her with his threats.

She too copied his action and placed her hands on her waist giving a sweet smile with her eye throwing daggers.

He can't just threatens her with chocolates every now and then.

Avni : I will laugh and I'll laugh more after telling you about the most exciting thing I've got to know before you. And you should drown yourself in few drops of water after listening it.

Neil : really,?? Let's see what kind of RAW or ISI type of imporatnt thing you got to know.

She smiles and stood up looking down at him hovering over him for once feeling proud of being taller than him.

Avni : Guess what.? She grinned ear to ear, her mouth will hurt if she continue to grin like this.

Neil : Guess why.? He asked standing on his feet making her grin wipe away instantly. She made faces at him mentally cursing him for standing up.

She rolled her eyes asking herself to focus on the topic rather than her bulldozer Idiot's height.

Avni : Fine don't guess but see this. She swipe the picture of cake on her phone and show him the next picture.

She grinned controlling herself from jumping out of excitement. Only she knows how she had control herself back. She wants to shouts, dance, celebrate and what not, but she control herself as she doesn't want to spoil the surprise or else she will be doomed.

Neil : What is this.?

Avni : Are you dumb. All her excitement drained away looking at his dumb bored face.

Neil : I'm not dumb, Okay. I know it's a pregnancy stick or something like that.

Avni : then why did you ask what is this.?

Neil : I mean, I know what is this, but why are you showing me.

She smack her forhead shooking her head.

Neil : wait, is it yours. Are you pregnant.?

Avni look up at him in horror only to gave him a stink look when she saw him almost bursting in laughter.

Avni : yeah it's mine, I already pop out 5 before, this one six. She put her hand on her stomach as she gave him a tight smile.

Neil loose his control on his laugh and he burst out loudly holding his stomach. A smile broke on Avni's lips too and she too join him.

Neil : this one was really good. He said after composing himself.

Avni rolled her eyes wiping away the little tear form in her eyes due to laughing.

Avni : Now be serious, I don't know why am I even sharing this with you but just think yourself lucky as I couldn't keep everything inside me. I have to let it out to someone.

Neil : my my feeling absolutely delightful to hear that. And for your information I already know whose this is.?

Avni : you know.? She blink confusingly

Neil : It's Ari right. She send you this picture I saw it. But Is Ari sure about this pregnancy. I mean Zach and father. He himself is a child, how he gonna take a responsibility of a child. You are understanding what I am saying right.? He still whined like a baby when he loss a football match and he is going to have a baby. It's crazy, it's seriously carz----.

Avni : put a brake on your train Mr. Overconfidence Khanna and listen first before assuming things. She cut him off him middle and took her phone from him.

Avni : this does not belong to Ari though she sent it but she is not pregnant.

Neil : She is not.

Avni : No.

Neil : then who. Ashi.? Even if she is,  Rohan is also same as Zach he is---

Avni : Stop right there, You again started assuming. Let me speak first.

Neil : then speak up, I haven't taped your mouth or something.

Avni : You Idiot. She smack his arm not so lightly.

Avni : I won't tell you now keep thinking who is pregnant and who is going to be mum and dad. She smirk at him.

Neil : sweetie there is only Sunheri left which means Riya is going to get a sibling. It's not a rocket science. He pinches her cheek a little hardly making her cheek slightly red.

She swat his hand away and smile sweetly at him.

Avni : Ohh sweetie how wrong you are. She too pinched his cheek and pull it a a little causing him to winch.

Avni : you do realise that you have a sister who is happily married to my brother and...

Neil : HOLY SHITTT!!!!.. He stilled in his place for a moment digesting the information. He has not even gone close to think his sister might be pregnant.

Avni smiled fully seeing him, she is happy to be the one who tell him the news and witnessed his reaction.

Neil : Are you serious. Your not pranking or something right.?

Avni : you think I'll joke about something like this.? She gave him a deadpan look.

Neil : No. He is grinning like mad man and hugged her tightly catching her off guard.

She after a second or two wrapped her arms around his waist. She can probably feel what he is feeling right now. The news itself was so overwhelming to her and only tears are left to come out from her eyes. And his sudden action was acceptable.

Neil : I'm so happy. I can't believe I'm got in to be an uncle again.

Neil : I have to meet her right now.

He stepped back and turned towards his left to go back inside and gave a big tight hug to his sister for a such a great news.

Avni : Stopp...  She hold his wrist immediately.

Avni : you can't go. She block his away standing infront of him.

Neil : and why.?

Avni : Because she promise me and girls to not to tell this to anyone of you. She sigh and look at him who raise his brows asking why.?

Avni : she wants to tell bro first. And she wants to get a proper check up done before revealing to everyone. She huffs and continue.

Avni : I told you because I can't keep so many things inside me.  And when the test comes positive I feel that my stomach is going to blown up if I didn't get it out. Please please please behave like you don't know anything in front of her. She's gonna kill me if she finds out I told you already. I really wants to see my niece or nephew. Please... She plead to him.

Avni : Are you even listening to me.? She shakes him when he didnt reply.

Neil : How can I not listen when someone is talking so cutely.

Her cheeks cell work instantly as she glance at him with the blushing face.

Neil : Now when you are asking with so much of cuteness how am I going to deny it.  He wrapped his hands around her waist and hold her close. 

Avni : umm mm...  yeah., Thank you. She said looking here and there.

Neil : Is this thank you for agreeing to your plead or calling you cute.?

Avni : Both. She tries to push him away but he tightened his hold pulling her closer.

Neil : uff.. you and your blush.

Avni : I am not blushing. She defend herself rubbing her cheek.

Neil : you shouldn't be, not after what  you did last night.

Avni : What I did. I didn't do anything. Her face become more red with emmbaressmanet. Curse him for bringing yesterday events every time.

Avni : And you are not supposed to bring that again and again after blackmailing me. She glare at him which he found really funny and end up pecking her cheek.

Neil : I'm not talking about that Junglee billi.

Neil : yesterday you prove again to be a certified junglee billi.  He continue after seeing confusion marred on her beautiful face.

Neil : Just a second though. I've proof of it. He release her from his hold and search his pocket for a handkerchief.

Neil : where is it now.? He muttered to himself when his gaze fall on her jeans back pocket stuff with tissues.

Neil : What are you doing with so many tissues.? He took out few from her pocket.

Avni : I was eating before so.. She shrugged her shoulder.

Neil shook his head and jogged towards tap connector on the corner side and wet some tissue

Avni : What are you doing. She asked when he come towards her.

Neil : To show you what I was doing in front of your mirror when you woke up with the sweetest headache of your life

Saying so, he put the wet tissue on his neck and rub against it.

Avni frowned looking at him weirdly, who was wiping away his spotless neck, don't know why.?

Her expression changed to weird, to confusion, to shock when a red mark appear on his spotless neck. Her eyes widened in realisation as the mark on his left side of neck become prominent.

Is it a...... hickey.?

Hickey..

Hickey...

Who the hell dare to do that.?

And why the hell he is showing off her with so much proud, is he mad. What is he think she won't get mad after how calmly she react yesterday. No way, this one is too much. It might be a different scenario if she was the one who would have... d-o-n-e...

NO...No..no..

It's not what she is thinking right.? She is not some desperate teenage girl to jump on handsome looking guy, not even in her drunken state.

But what if it's true. He won't be showing her if... No. PLEASE.

She pounder in her thoughts when a finger click infront of her.

She wants to believe it's not what she is thinking it is but the appearance of smirk on his lips was enough to drown herself in the pool of embarrassment and her irrational side of mind wants to vanish somewhere in thin air but then again rational one said it might not be what she was thinking.

Meaning, it's a fair chances of her not doing things like this, she won't go too far to do something like this, even in her drunken state. Right.?

Maybe.

Neil : So... A never ending smirk was playing on his face as he threw away the tissue and look at her.

Avni : What So.. don't you have a little bit of shame to do this cheap thing and then you have an audacity to show it to me. What a pathetic excuse you are.

An advice from Junglee billi--
If you don't know what to do in a situation where you have a slight idea of you try to say something and that might get backfired at you then, Blame the person. Simple.

And she did it exactly. She blame him. Which she knows sounds as stupid as he get sometimes. But she is not ready to hear who is the artist of the art done on his neck.

Okay it's getting too much.

She can't handle both if he say it's her doing or it's someone else's.

And if it's later one then the hulk residing in her is all ready with a murder plan to kill that someone in thousand different ways.

But again blaaaahhh... She knows he is not that much of Idiot to let anyone do that or if hypothetically it happened then why the hell will he show it her.

Until and unless it's not someone else but She herself and he wants to tease her to end. 

And if she try to put some pressure on her mind, she is getting a little vivid of what might have happen which she from the bottom of her heart wish it to be a dream.

Neil : You and I both know who is being pathetic one. He said after coming out of shock she gave him by blaming him for what not. Trust Junglee billi for being rational once.

Avni : I... I.. I am not pathetic... you are. She tries to sound confident and look here and there from her peripheral view to see some escape from him.

She shifted a little to her right to get away from him step by step but her betraying wrist caught in his hand and she was again in a swift of a moment back to where she was before.

In. His. Arms.

Neil : trying to escape now. Are we.?

Avni : Why..  why would I.. do that.? She admire the grass on the floor looking extremely delightful to her eyes in this situation. It's hell better then looking in his eyes and then made a fool out of herself.

She needs time to digest things. She don't trust herself anymore.

Since the minute she woke up in the morning, she is having a little flashes of what happened last might which she first thinks as a dream but all her hopes crushed down when he show her the videos of her poking his cheeks and saying extremely wired things and doing more extremely wired stuffs.

Everything she thought as a dream is coming true and now in this situation she is afraid that it also might came true.

Arrghh!!!... what the heck was wrong with her when she did this. Or did she even do that.?

Neil : yeah, you did that.

Her eyes widened as the red hue appear on her cheeks faster than a light in a dark room when she realised she said out loud and made a fool of her.

She groaned and put her head on his shoulder not knowing what to do now.

Neil : As much as it hurts my ego to be the one to get 'the hickey' first and not the other way around, trust me It's the best of thing of my life.

She close her eyes tightly cursing herself thinking what spell was cast over her to do such a vampiric thing.

Neil laugh seeing her red in embarrassment with few groaning and gibberish mutterings as he remember what happened last night when he received the best gift of his life till now.

Flashback :

Neil : Junglee billi, wait.

He called her as she run away from him shouting Chor Chor for no reason.

Neil huffs coming closer to her as she finally stopped her marathon.

He look up to scold her for running like a mad women but her glare stopped him.

She was glaring at him with her nose flaring and teeth gritting, her hands were resting on her waist and was tapping her right foot on the ground looking ridiculously cute with his blazer wrapped around her, whose sleeves were going down her fingers.

Avni : What did you call me. She asked throwing daggers with her eyes.

Neil hide his amused smile looking at her face getting red in anger.

Avni : How dare you to call me that.? She stepped forward and jabbed his chest with her index finger.

Neil : I call you what.? He raised his brows stifling his laugh when she push away her bangs of hair back a little harshly.

Neil : Junglee billi.? He added and couldn't hide his chuchkle seeing her face. Only smokes are left to come out from her ears and nose.

Avni : if you call me that again you won't like it aftermath. She threatens him.

Neil : and what if I call you again, Junglee billi.? He can't believe he is arguing with his drunk girlfriend. Is He also drunk.?  Nah! Must be her rub off on him.

He can she see her jaw clenching as she step forward coming more closer to him stumbling on her heels. He hold her immediately before she fall down.

She is going to make a different record of falling down in a single night.

He was about to throw another tease at her but his words died down and eyes widened in shock not even in surprise when his junglee billi cupped his jaw in her little hand as she tilt her face and bite his neck leaving him completely off guarded.

What the freaking heck happened.?

Did she just gave him a ...??

Is she got influenced by a Vampire.

Flashback ends.

Avni : Please tell me it's not real. She mumbled on his shoulder.

Neil : It is. It is very real Junglee billi. And why don't you look at the art you made. Take a look. He pulled her away and made her look at the hickey she gave him.

The red make few inches above his collarbone look actually nice to her. Maybe after she learnt who did it. Her heart tingles seeing the proud mark on his neck and her hands involuntarily moved up and trace it.

Neil : Like it. 

She put down her hand immediately and look around to avoid him.

Neil : Let's see how it looks. He take out his phone from his pocket and turn on the camera.

Avni seeing him removing his one hand from her, tries to get out of his hold.

Neil : why to try when you know it's a waste if your energy. His hand though one resting in her small waist tightens around it. Her continues wriggle and his tighten grip made her jerk more closer to him with her head bumping on his chest.

She scowled and a sad pout formed on her lips as he chuckled at her.

Neil :  By the way you won't mind giving the another one if this gets fade away right. He asked seriously though his face has everything but seriousness.

Avni  : Shut up. She smacked his chest when she look up at him to saw him showing the hickey.

A laugh bubble out of his throat and he wrapped his hands around her and kissed her head.
