Riansh were cuddling each other.

VANSH: Jaan you're the first girl in my life & the moment I realised my love for you it was decided that you'll be the last one in my life no matter what. I love you so much Sweetheart....

Riddhima pulled him on top of her & hugged him tight.

RIDDHIMA: I love you too Ansh... I love you so much...

Vansh smiled hearing her. He just kissed her crown.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh the way you kissed me today na it was just heaven. Your lips were so warm that made me melt in your arms.

This was it. He was on cloud nine hearing his girl's confession. He always wanted to make her comfortable around him that she can talk anything & everything. Right now his girl confessed her heart out after their most beautiful first intimate moment & he was feeling blissfull.

VANSH: Jaan I can't express in words what I'm feeling right now.

RIDDHIMA: You don't need to say Ansh your actions speaks louder than words. I understand you.

She said ruffling his hairs. He thought to tease her.

VANSH: Sweetheart waise these lips are yours only. You can have them whenever you want.

Hearing his words Riddhima was blushing hell & in heat of moment she unintentionally clutched his hairs tightly yet softly. She was all red & Vansh felt it. He just lifted his face & saw that she was all red like tomato blushing like anything, a serene smile on lips & eyes closed tightly due to shyness. He chuckled seeing her & placed his lips on her forehead & then placed his forehead on hers. With other hand he took his phone & clicked their photo. The snap sound made Riddhima come in sense & as she opened her eyes she met his beautiful eyes. Vansh rolled down from her & took her in his embrace.

VANSH: Sweetheart....

RIDDHIMA: Hmm...

VANSH: Always be like this...

RIDDHIMA: Jab tak aap sath ho...

VANSH: Humesha

RIDDHIMA: Forever.

Again silence prevailed. After sometime Riddhima spoke,

RIDDHIMA: Ansh who was your childhood hero?

VANSH: Papa. What is your biggest fear now Jaan?

RIDDHIMA: To lose you & our family. I can't afford that even in my dreams.

VANSH: All are with you Sweetheart not for now but throughout your life.

RIDDHIMA: Hmmm.

VANSH: What can I do to make sure you feel safe & comfortable with me?

Riddhima was surprised by this question. She looked at him.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh yeh question.

He took her close to himself as possible as he could.

VANSH: Jaan first listen to me before answering okay.

Riddhima nodded. He cupped her face & made her look into his eyes directly.

VANSH: Jaan no one is perfect, everyone has their own strengths & weakness. So it's okay if you've fears. See as in your life partner it's my responsibility & my right too to protect you from your fears & Jaan I'll cross any limits for you because I can't see you in pain. Tumhein pata hain jab tumhein panick attacks aate hain na toh meri jaan nikal jati hain, dil dhadakna bandh kar deta hain, saans nahi aati. Isiliye keh raha hu please try to open up.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh main jab choti thi na tab bilkul esi nahi thi. Tab mujhe bahot sari cheezo se dar lagta tha, jese ki tab mein andhere se bahot darti thi par ab toh jese yeh andherapan mujhe sukoon sa deta hain. Pehle toh agar koi zara si unchi awaaz mein bhi bol dena toh mein dar jati thi par ab toh mein khud dusro par chilati phirti hu, ab toh koi mera naam bhi sun le na toh kaap ne lagta hain esi ban gai hu. She chuckled saying this. Pehle agar safety pin jesi cheeze bhi chubh jae ya agar galti se sui bhi chubh gai na toh aankh se ansu nikal jate the, rone lagti thi itni sensitive thi par ab mujhe koi ghav mehsoos hi nahi hote, (when she said this Vansh remembered airport incident & Ananta Mansion's incident when she was injured with bullet but she was totally unaffected by it) kyun ki zindagi ne kuch ese khel khele ki zinda lash ban gai thi par phir bhi maine kabhi kisi ko kuch nahi bola. Phir Maa aur Papa aae meri zindagi mein, unho ne ek nai jaan daldi thi meri life mein phir se jeene lagi thi wahi sensitive si ladki ban gai thi. Pata hain kesi thi Ansh agar Maa aur Papa pyar se beta bhi kehte the na toh aankhein nam ho jati thi kyunki utne pyar ki adat nahi thi na. Jab Kiyaan aur Angre ne pehli baar I love you Riddhi Di bola tha na tab I literally fell on knees & cried. Everyone were so freaked out because of it. Then when Papa asked why I cried I told ki because someone will call me Di, I'll have brothers who loves me. At the end her voice was heavy & tears rolled down her eyes. Ek din main Dada ke saath office gai thi & we were working on some project. Ek employee ne galti kari thi last moment par aur Dada chilae uspe toh main rone lagi thi because I can't tolerate that much high voice. When Dada saw me crying he came to me running & hugged me but I was crying so much that I was even not able to speak anything. He called Maa & Papa & they came running. Papa somehow made me calm & after that they never repeated that. Sab kuch ek fairytale dream jesa tha par sab kuch khatam ho gaya. She started crying. She hugged Vansh. Vansh too hugged her.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh Maa aur Papa...

But she was not able to speak further. Vansh let her tears flow & after sometime she was calm. She broke the hug & pouted.

RIDDHIMA: Sorry date night spoil kar di na.

Vansh rubbed her eyes wiping off her tears.

VANSH: No Sweetheart. This is the real date where we can know each other better, understand each other better & take steps to make our relation, bond stronger. Woh toh teenagers jo boyfriend aur girlfriend hote hain ek dusre ke woh jate hain fancy dates pe jahan sirf dinner karo, dance karo aur aa jao.

RIDDHIMA: Toh hum kya hain Mr. Handsome?

VANSH: We are soul mates of each other.

Riddhima smiled at his answer & pecked her cheek.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh meri baat dhyan se sun na.

Vansh nodded.

RIDDHIMA: I know our relation is different from others & the main reason is me.

VANSH: Jaan

But Riddhima placed his finger on his lips stopping him from speaking & shaked her head in no.

RIDDHIMA: Please suniye I wanna open up, I want to try. Let me complete.

Vansh took her palm which was near his face & kissed it & nodded.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh aap jante hain na meri shaadi pehle ho chuki thi. Tab I was not ready for marriage & also I never shared any relation such as husband & wife has with him. Par woh ek bahot hi alag shaadi thi aur ek din.....

She was not able to explain him. She was not getting words to tell him.

VANSH: Jaan first relax okay. As I said mujhe usse koi farak nahi padta & I mean it. So take your time as much you want but make this thing fix in your mind that whenever you'll need me I'll be always there wih you.

RIDDHIMA: Bhale hi humare beech husband wife jesa relation nahi tha Ansh par kuch esa hua tha mere past mein jiski wajah se I'm taking time to take things forward & our relation is not like others. Those incidents have such a fearful impact on me. Ansh that's the only fear except losing you all. I need time to share about it.

VANSH: As much as you want.

Saying this he kissed her forehead.

RIDDHIMA: Par aaj jab maine yeh step liya woh sirf aap ki wajah se you made me so comfortable around you. Because of you I'm able to defeat those fears. Aap esa mat sochna ki whether I'll be comfortable or not. I want you to enjoy our small moments, our stages of life by showing these rights on me beautifully. I'm more than comfortable to share these beautiful small moments with you till this stage.

Vansh understood that she is comfortable till kissing & she needs time to take further steps. He was happy that he made her comfortable & she is coming out of her fears. Also he was all ready to give her time she wants be it whole life because he loves her soul rather than her body. He wanted her to show that he understood her but not with words but with actions so he pecked her lips making her blush.

RIDDHIMA: So answer to your question is first I'm always safe when you're with me, around me & about making me comfortable just be you & nothing else because don't know I never felt uncomfortable around you.

VANSH: Okay my love.
