******************

Few days after in Arnav's room, he was arranging his dresses in the shelf when he heard a voice from his lower cupboard. Arnav shook his head and looked down.

"Come out now. I know that you are in the cupboard." Arnav saw two eyes staring at him from the cupboard.

"What are you doing in my cupboard? Again I'm hiding from your mummy." He asked as the little boy emerges out from his cupboard.

"What have you done to hide in my cupboard Nirav?" He asked his step brother

"I didn't do anything bhaiyya, I couldn't score full mark in class test." The nine year old guy who is in fourth standard replied.

"How much you scored?"

"45 out of 50 bhaiyya."

"That's good Nirav"

"But mummy thinks that I'm a bad guy. Am I bad bhaiyya?" He innocently asked his elder brother.

"No, you are not."

"Really?"

"Yup... Or else why would I buy this for you?" Arnav gave a gift packet to Nirav.

"What is it bhaiyya?" He asked receiving it.

"Open it and see yourself."

"Wow...bhaiyya...thanks a lot" Nirav hugged Arnav around his thighs. He held the molding clay kit close to him.

"But mummy won't let me mold anything. She always want me to study." Nirav pouted.

"Do it when you get free time."

"When do I get free time bhaiyya??? I have to go to maths tution, science tution, skating classes." He complained and sat on the bed.

"Yeah, you are the future of Malik businesses after all. So you are bound to have a tight schedule." Arnav teased arranging his clothes in the cupboard.

"I want to grow up and be like you. You know a life without tution and school." He innocently smiled with a happy face

"You have a long way to go buddy." Nirav pouted hearing his reply.

"Now go and hide the clay kit somewhere before your mom throw this out." Nirav stepped onto his bed and ran out of the room kissing his cheek. Arnav looked at the small figure running out of his room.

He still can't believe that he accepted Nirav who happens to be the son of the person who destroyed his life At first, he hated the sight of Nirav. As Nirav grew older,he saw him trying to get closer to him, crawling towards him, giggling at him and giving him sloppy kisses. Slowly he realised that, Nirav is a baby who doesn't have any part in messing up his life. He can't hate a child who is innocent
Unknowingly Nirav become the only solace in this house.

Next week,  Arshi is in their usual spot

"Arnav, are you studying for your exams?"

"Exam comes and goes baby..."  Arnav said playing with her fingers while answering without any carelessly.

"You should study Arnav."

"I'm studying...very keenly...You got a mole on your shoulder."

"What???" She asked not understanding anything.

"I'm studying my subject of interest very keenly." Arnav smirked as he kissed the  mole on her shoulder.

"Do you want to know the content of my subject?" He teased her.

"No, keep your subject with you."

"I'm exactly doing that. It's ok if you don't want to know about the content. The contents are just awesome. I really wanted to thoroughly study about it." He said running his hands on her arms.

"I think if you concentrate on your exams now, you will be allowed to thoroughly study your subject after the exams.." Khushi said to him making him smirk.

"Not a bad idea baby."

"This exam will be your preliminary exam. If you promise to give the best in it, you will get entry to the main exam related to your own subject." She said with a blush while he gave her a knowing smile.

"It's done then...I will try to give my best in this exam so that I can attend the  main exam." Khushi blushed deeply and hide his face in his chest.

"What have you done to me Arnav????"

"The same thing you have done to me." He said pulling her onto his arms.

************

For the next three weeks, Arnav was very busy in studies and exams. He got a call from Khushi asking him to reach their usual spot. He reached there as soon as possible.

"Khushi what happened? Why did you call me all of a sudden?" He asked with concern.

Khushi walked towards him and stand in front of him.
"I'm sorry for disturbing you, but I couldn't help myself from calling you."

"Cut this crap and tell me what is it?" An impatient Arnav said to her.

"Laadgovernor, calm yourself first and look at me." Khushi scolded him

"You look okay baby, in fact damn sexy in this skirt and top."

"Can't you see anything beyond that?"

"Do you want to show me your lingerie?" He asked not getting what she is trying to say.

"I'm going away you shameless man. You are such a useless man..Why the hell I called you???" Saying this she walked away.

"Khushi, where is your crutch damn it?"

"Thank Yahweh...you finally showed your grace on him." She prayed and looked at him.

"Now look at my leg Arnav." She raised her skirt letting him see her legs. Arnav noticed a different prosthetic leg on her.

"You got a new prosthetic?"

"Yup, and I don't have to use a crutch from now. Abba surprised me with this." She beamed with happiness.

"That's good. So are you comfortable in it?" He asked stroking her cheek.

"Yes, I'm totally comfortable. Now I can walk long distance without any problem. It have a flexible knee to support." She said with her eyes twinkling in happiness

"I'm really happy for you baby." Arnav said kissing her forehead

"I couldn't control my happiness and that's why I called you. Sorry for disturbing your studies." She apologized and he pulled Khushi to his arms

"I'm happy that you called me to share your happiness. You are not a disturbance to me.."

"Now you should go back and continue your studies."

"Ok, before that let me take fill of my girl." He cupped her face and placed his lips on her lips, kissing her passionately.

"Now come, I will go after dropping you home."

"Arnav, I would like to sit on two side today."

"Sure, hop on baby." Khushi sat behind him and held him by shoulder.

"Baby, you know the condition of road, don't you? So come closer and hold me tight." Arnav smirked while Khushi understood his intention. He started the bike, drives a little and suddenly stopped in middle. Her front got glued to his back for a moment as her hands wrapped around his waist.

"You know these types of jerking will be there throughout the journey. So just be careful."

"Then I should hold you tight." Saying this Khushi sat too close to him leaving no place for air. She wrapped her hands around his waist. Arnav sensed her hands roaming around his packs over the shirt. She placed her chin on his shoulder.

"Shall we go Arnav?" She asked him to start driving.

"Sure"

"You got some nice packs." Khushi teased him.

"...And you have very soft breasts." Arnav teased her making her fingers halt.

"Pervert" Khushi muttered near to his ears

"I know that very well baby." Arnav said as he started the bike.

He took her for a long drive. Khushi hugged him from back placing her head on his shoulder.

"I'm living one of the most beautiful moment in my life Arnav."

"I'm glad that it is with me."

"Only with you Arnav." She tightened her hold on his waist.

***********

Finally his exams got finished. Seniors had a offical and unofficial farewell party organised by juniors. Official one is in college and unofficial in a club.

"What is it Arnav?"

"Can't you see it?? Its a saree."

"What does I have to do with this?" She asked him.

"You have to wear it and come for the party in the club. Bring Payal with you too."

"Arnav, I can't...." Khushi choked her words

"Baby, I know that it is difficult for you. You are a strong woman Khushi, don't let that fear consume you. I will be there to support you baby. Trust me in that. Nobody will lay a hand on you except me." Khushi smiled at the last sentence.

"I know that." Khushi said hugging him

"I will try to come with Payal." Arnav kissed her forehead promising himself to keep her safe.

************

At night, Khushi reached the club with Payal.

"Khushi, why did that don called us here? The club is filled with so many bimbos. If they dare to utter something rubbish...I'm going to kick that b***hes." A feisty Payal told Khushi.

"Payal, can you please calm down first." Khushi rolled her eyes at her friend.

"Look, there comes the so called beauty queen Sheetal.

"Ohhhh... Look at my brand new shoes...my dress...ASR gonna propose me soon." Payal imitated her.

"It is right that she is a princess... Princess of Kishkindha."

"Kishkindha????" Khushi asked not knowing what it is.

"Khushi, Kishkindha is the land of monkeys in Ramayana."

"Ohhhh...Hmm...Payal trust me Arnav have already arranged something for us." Khushi looked at her impatient friend.

"Not for us...for you darling..." Khushi blushed hearing it.

"Ohhhh ohhhh...see you are blushing just by hearing his name."

"Don't tease me Payal."

Khushi and Payal waited in a corner for Arnav. Then they heard the girls going silent all of a sudden. Khushi saw him entering the club with his gang.

Boys were in suite, Arnav had a rose colour cloth tucked on his chest pocket matching with her saree. Khushi saw him winking at her which made her blush.

Akash stepped on the stage
"Ok guys, I'm here to announce an important thing." He takes the mic and started.

"So girls be ready to find your date for tonight. Everyone will have an equal chance in it. We are going to randomly select our dates through lots. So let's see what destiny plans for you today."

First Akash took a chit which had some girl's name. One by one each guys took the lots.

"Khushi, what is your ASR going to do now?" Payal asked Khushi.

"What if he gets some other girl's name? If he knew that something like this is gonna happen, why the hell he called you here?" Payal asked getting worried for her friend.

"Maybe he won't take part in it Payal."

"Let's see that."

Finally Arnav's chance came and he walked upto the stage.

"Khushi, he is going to participate in this." Payal said while she tried to hide her disappointment.

"What if he gets some other girl's name???" Payal squeezed her hand lightly. Khushi heard girls hoping to get selected.

Arnav has already concealed a chit with her name in between his fingers. He acted like taking a chit in front of other.
He made a confused expression as he read the name.

"Who is that lucky girl you got ASR?" Akash asked

"Khushi Gavriel????" Arnav said frowning

"The second year class topper ASR."

"Ohhhh, that girl." He acted like recollecting her name. ASR roamed his eyes all over the crowd and spotted her.
He walked towards her and forwarded his hand.

"Be my date Miss Gavriel." Khushi looked around and found everyone staring at them. She placed her hand on his hand. He kissed the back of her palm while  all girls eyed her enviously.

Arnav pulled her by waist and walked towards a corner.
"You look damn sexy and beautiful baby."

"How did you take exactly my name from that bowl full of chits???"

"I can go to any extend to claim what's mine and you are mine. I can't let anyone lay their hands on you. It is only my right. Right now, I really wanted to kiss you Khushi." His words made her gasp.

"Don't worry, not in front of everyone. I can't let them see your face when you will be lost in my kisses. Are you thirsty?" He asked pointing at the drinking area. Khushi nodded her head and he took her to the bar.

"One virgin Mary for the lady and a Bourbon Lancer. It's non alcoholic Khushi, you can have it." He said squeezing her hand.

They were having drinks when Payal came there with her date Lalit. They greeted each other and talked. Lalit and Arnav were busy with each other when Payal nudged Khushi.

"Khushi, how did he got your name?"

"Nothing is impossible for the Don Payaliya." Khushi giggled at her.

"Yeah, I forget that he is the great ASR. So, did he said anything to you? You are wearing the saree gifted by him looking damn hot..." Payal raised her eyebrows while Khushi blushed recalling his compliment.

"What did he exactly said to make you blush like this???"

"Payal, don't tease me. He complimented me, that's all."

"Hmm, seems like he is going to drop you home. Making out in a car is quite hot."
Payal winked at her.

"I can tolerate one laadgovernor...now you too Payal..." Khushi pouted

"Go and pout at your laadgovernor lady."

"So what are you girls talking about?" Lalit asked both of them.

"We were just talking about cars, weren't we Khushi?" Khushi nodded blushing.

"We should go now...see you later guys." Payal said to them and went from there.

"Why did you blush when Payal mentioned about cars???" He asked knowing why she blushed.

"It's nothing..."

"Anyway we will be probably making out in a car today. Be ready for that." Arnav said in a husky voice.

"Did you eavesdrop our conversation???"

"No, it's simple. Why would you blush so much just by hearing the word car???" He raised his eyebrows with a smirk.

"Also I really wanted to do that...So is it the same flavour?" He asked in a serious tone.

"What?"

"Lipgloss..." He teased her. Khushi blushed deeper and deeper, tried to control her shy smile by biting her lips

"You don't have to bite your lips baby, i will do that when we will be in the car.
Don't crash your lips soft lips." Khushi left her lips and look at him

"You still didn't tell me what flavour it is?"

"Peach..."

"Let's see how it is..." He winked at her making her blush.

Arnav noticed one of the bartender gazing at her back.
"Khushi, you sit here. I will be back soon." Arnav moved towards the bartender.

"What do you want sir?"

"Did you like her back that much?"

"No sir...I was just..." Arnav signalled the bartender to come closer.

"If I see you gazing at her direction again...I will make you in such a
state that you won't be able to look at any girl at all..."

"Sure sir...I'm really sorry for looking at your girl." Arnav gave him a warning look and went to her.

"What were you talking with that guy?"

"He was eyeing what's mine. So I politely told him not to do that." He replied casually.

"Politeness and Arnav don't go well in a sentence." Khushi teased knowing his nature.

"My topper understands everything."

"Arnav, you can't go and threaten people like that...he must be staring at somewhere."

"He was staring at your back Khushi. I can't even tolerate anyone staring at your hair strand. You are mine, and I know how to take care of my things."

"I'm not a thing Arnav." She said getting little worried of his possessiveness.

"Who knows that very well than me. Things won't moan my name passionately like you do. I can't wait to make you do that again." He whispered in a husky voice making her blush and nervous.

"You are breathing faster Khushi, are you ok?" Arnav asked rubbing her bare back.
Khushi looked at her lap and closed her eyes, trying to overcome the emotions he is creating in her.

Fortunately, the pairs were called for dancing

"Come let's go and dance." He pulled Khushi.

"I can't dance Arnav..."

"It's ok...we can manage...trust me."

They walked to the stage, Khushi felt so nervous. They stand facing each other.
Arnav placed his hand on her bare waist, which made Khushi gasp. The music started, they started to sway with him making patterns on her waist. She felt his hand trailing on her back. They danced so sensuously making everyone envious. They stopped facing as they head claps.

"Khushi, you both set the stage on fire... The chemistry along with such a sensuous song...uff..." Payal said Making Khushi blush.

"ASR, what was that? We never thought that you will dance like that...It was hot..." Akash commented

"Yup ASR, it's just a date...I don't know what you will do if you ever have a girlfriend" Prethik said to Arnav.

"She was damn hot, why didn't I ever notice that." Another guy commented making Arnav furious. He placed his hand on his shoulder with a bang...

"Man, for tonight she is my date...so keep your eyes off her." He warned while that guy smiled awkwardly and nodded.

They party ended, Arnav bid bye to his friends. Arnav made Khushi sit in the car.

"Is this your car???" She asked looking at the car.

"No, I don't have enough money to buy a car now."

"I thought your father..."

"I don't use his money. I spend the money I earned." He said rudely.

"Ohhhh...I don't know...you never told me..." Khushi said with a disappointed tone.

"Khushi, we are getting to know each other... Keep patience baby." She nodded her head as he started the car.

"So what kind of works you do?"

"Not that criminal works everyone suspects. I get paid for playing matches in local teams and all. Along with that, I own a gym in the city."

"You have a gym???"

"Yup, not that much sophisticated, but we do give good training."

"When did you started it?"

"3 years back... I wanted to be independent... so I started it... It's going
good now."

"Who gave you the money for it?" She asked him feeling curious.

"My grandmother, she mortgaged her property for me."

"Does your friends know about this?"

"No, they don't... They are members there...but don't know that I'm the owner."

"Did you repaid the loan?"

"No... If everything goes according to my plan, I will be able to repay the full amount within 2 or 3 years." He let her know about his life

"Do you know that, you are amazing."

"I think someone told me that earlier. Some girl who have a mole on her left shoulder." He teased her and stopped the car in a secluded area away from the main road.

He lowered her seat, while she continue to sat on the same position.

"I don't think I can control anymore now." Saying this he kissed her making her lie on the seat. Khushi pulled him closer by his neck. He fleet kisses all over her face.

Arnav stared at her face for a moment

"Mine..." He murmured and kissed her with urgency. Khushi moaned his name as he trailed kisses on her neck and shoulder.

Arnav remembered about today's incidents, how the men looked at her with dirty thoughts in their mind.

*Blog Part - PW 'Paneer'*

"I'm only yours Arnav..." Khushi pulled him for a kiss while her hands crept under his shirt. Arnav pulled away and unbuttoned his shirt, giving her access to his body. She started to feather kisses on his neck and shoulder.

That's when Khushi caught a tattoo on his collar bone.

"Arnav this...." She stopped kissing and looked at the tattoo. Her eyes filled with tears as she pulled him for a kiss.

"Arnav, you..." Khushi choked her words as she cupped his face.

"That day was one of the most memorable day in my life...our first kiss in between those fireflies." Khushi traced her fingers on the tattoo as he said this to her. It's the tattoo of fireflies.

She kissed the tattoo and trailed kisses on his body. Arnav hugged her overwhelmed with the feelings.

"Who do you belongs to you baby?"

"You, I'm only yours..." Khushi said roaming her hands on his back. Khushi breaks their hug and held his hand.

"If I'm yours, who do you belongs to???" Khushi asked him

"Yours Khushi." Arnav said as his hands squeezed her waist.

"Let me ravish you for the last time."
Saying this he started his ministrations which took her to another world Arnav pulled her blouse and lingerie down, covering her breast. He helped her to arrange her dress. Khushi buttoned his shirt and wiped away the lipgloss from his face.

"Did I scared you with my act?"

"Never... Yeah, it's bit hard match up to your level of desire. I loved everything Arnav." Arnav pulled her to his lap as she placed her head on his chest.

Arnav stroked her head and kissed her head.
"Khushi, I will be leaving for Delhi tomorrow evening." Arnav felt her becoming stiff.

"But you said that you will be going after two weeks, what happened suddenly?"

"Some matches got scheduled earlier... So I have to go."

"When will you come back Arnav???"

"I will be back after 5 months. My coach have some plans for me." Khushi got shocked hearing it, a sob erupted from her throat which she controlled.

She looked at Arnav for a moment, then stared at his neck for sometime trying to put a fake smile on her face.

"It's good for your career...I'm happy for you..." Khushi said gazing between his face and neck. Arnav lifted her chin up and stared at her which made her burst into tears. Khushi hugged him and cried.

"I will miss you Arnav...a lot...I don't k is if everything will same or not...I don't know what is going to happen when you will be back. I'm afraid that everything is going to change." She said burying her face onto his chest

"Baby, nothing is going to change. I will be back to you after 5 months no matter what happens. Don't you trust me??" He asked her.

"I trust you a lot Arnav."

"Then keep that trust in me. You don't have to worry about anything." He placed a kiss on her forehead and patted her back.

After spending time with together, Arnav dropped Khushi at Payal's house. He promised Khushi that he would keep in touch with her and would be back with a surprise for her. Khushi nodded her head and kissed his forehead.

"Take care of yourself baby."

"I will...don't worry about me. You too take care of yourself. I will be waiting for you."

"I know." He gave her a final kiss and drives away from there.
