Manmohan was happy for his daughter. There was a huge shower of flowers when they exchanged the garlands. All the guests blessed the couple.

Mr Oberoi had invited the whole staff over the occasion...he made sure everything was perfect for his Son's wedding. Nakul, Uday, Arjun and Sameer stood in different poses for the picture around the couple.

"Veer, you are the first one in the group to get married..." Uday pondered

Veer was least concerned about being the first or the last. He knew anyhow this marriage won't last long like any of his missions.

"The only thing I am regretting" he murmured

Sameer heard Veer "and what is that regret"

"Staying with my enemy in the same house" Veer angrily closed his fist

Sameer looked at Veer... then burst out laughing

"What happened to you" Arjun offered him a drink

"Let's get other guests come for the photos" Sameer chuckled over what Veer had said....

All the friends got down the stage ....

Abhi came with a bouquet of flowers for Aarti... "So lady Hitler, congratulations"

Aarti smiled at Abhi "thanks Abhi"

Abhi came a little closer to Aarti for a picture... while Veer was getting irater with their closeness...

"Hello Mr Oberoi. Congratulations" he turned towards Veer...

Few hours later

Aarti tiredly sauntered out of the washroom... "It was such a tiring day Sheetal. I want to sleep now"

"Not here Aarti... you have to sleep in Veer's room"

Aarti frowned at her "what are you talking. I don't want to look at him and you are asking me to sleep in his room?"

Sheetal tried to calm her "and what if Mr Oberoi sees this?"

"I feel like beating my head against the wall" Aarti lifted her dress a little and walked out of the room...

Next minute she walked towards Veer's room.... turned the knob and rushed into room...

He turned around "you don't knock?"

She looked at him changing his clothes

"You don't lock?" she raised her eyebrow at him

He scowled at her "I was changing"

"Who's stopping you?" she gritted her teeth

Veer knew if he keeps on arguing with her...he might end up getting complete insane like her. With angry look he opened the bathroom room and shut it loudly.

"Moron" she murmured

------------------------------------------------------------------------

She tried taking off the jewellery...almost pulling her hair out of those fancy pins...she was hurting herself.

Tears gathered around her eyes, she painfully took out the ornaments literally pulling the necklace off from her neck ...

Veer wasn't surprised at her actions but this was too much. She was hurting herself...

"What are you doing?"

He came closer and saw her long dupatta stuck in the hair pin...the bun was too tight as well. Without saying anything he helped her taking the pin from the dupatta...

Aarti was furious, she was getting headache and now he was helping her pull the pins "leave me"

"Don't move" he ordered with a big frown

Aarti's P.O.V

Why the hell is he helping me? I didn't ask for his help. And these pins in the bun, oh God Sheetal tried them so tight... I am getting a bad headache.

The moment he took the pin out of the dupatta ...I felt little relief. There were at least twenty pins on my head. One by one he took off the pins.

His anger seemed to increase with every pin. I hate him for his scowl look. But the moment he released my hair from all the pins and loose open...I felt actually breathing.

O my...I closed my eyes. He actually helped me. That was just not expected from him. The moment I turned around he looked into my eyes for a minute

Oh no what should I do with those eyes. That was it, he turned away towards the big bed. So he will sleep on the bed. What about me.

Where the hell will I go? No first I need to get out of my bridal dress. I quickly took my night gown and sauntered towards the bathroom.

Veer's P.O.V

Silly girl, had so many pins in her hair. Damn it...how the hell can you tie your hair so tight. She must be having headache by now.

I saw her pulling her hair and taking off her ornaments...her soft skin looked all red. God knows what for whatever reason I couldn't watch her hurting herself.

I took off all the pins from her hair...it was tied up in a bun...just when I opened the bun the loose frills came rolling down her shoulders...oh she's got so silky hair.

She should have left them open. But what am I expecting and that too from her....a girl without her own brains.

I really wanted to run my hand in her hair to relax her but she turned around instantly.

My eyes fell on her moist eyes...oh, she was crying. I pity her, maybe I was too harsh with her. She didn't say a word.

I heard when she said moron before. No way, I am not going to talk to her.

To hell with her, I don't care what she does, whom she talks to. I saw her getting over friendlier with that man and why did he call her lady Hitler.

Anyhow why should I be bothered about her...? I jumped on to my cosy bed.

---------------------------------------------------------

Rama sauntered from one corner of the room to another....

Manmohan watched his wife "now what are you up to. You have already done a lot"

"Manmohan try and understand, how can Aarti sleep in that room. It's just a contract marriage" worriedly holding her hands.

Manmohan smiled "you are right. But she's already sleeping in his room. Too late now"

Rama picked her phone "I will call her and advise her not to do anything"

Manmohan shook his head

"She's not answering..."

"Sleep now. Talk to her tomorrow...and we are leaving tomorrow"

Manmohan switched off the lights.

--------------------------------

Sheetal was still packing her clothes when she picked up Sameer's call

"Come outside..."

"Ok wait"

Sheetal saw everyone sitting in the lounge "no one slept...why?"

"Come on Sheetal, we must think of something to bring the love birds closer" Nakul checked something on the phone

Arjun stared angrily at Kavita

"Ok, but do you have any ideas?"

"That's why we called you. Is Aarti scared of anything" asked Uday

Sheetal thought something "hmmm.... Yes"

"What is that?" Sameer stood up from the couch

"She's scared of lizards." Sheetal whispered with a big smile.

"Great Sheetal. Why are you telling them?" Kavita glowered at her

"Did anyone ask you?" Arjun gaped at her

"Both of you. Stop fighting" Sheetal made them sit on the couch

"Ok Sameer...we will do something now" Uday and Nakul winked

Sheetal smiled at them... "I hope they come closer"

----------------------------------------------

Aarti stepped out of the bathroom, she was still rubbing wet her hair with the towel when she felt something on the feet.... She looked down and screamed...

She rushed on the bed.

"What the hell are you doing?" Veer opened her eyes

She almost jump on his lap... "Look...there"

Veer was completely confused "where?"

She pointed her finger towards the bathroom "over there. Can't you see?"

Veer's eyes felt on the lizard "oh, so you are scared of this?"

"Yes..." she embraced him tightly...

Veer tried to get out of her hold...

Veer's P.O.V

I was almost sleeping when she jumped on the bed.... Next instance I was sitting straight against the headboard.

She looked so frightened and without even thinking anything sat on my lap. Silly woman trying to show me a lizard. Damn, she was scared of a lizard.

Her hands grabbed my neck. I could smell the sweet vanilla scent on the soft skin on her neck and shoulder. This must be the first time I actually saw her neck and shoulders, it's so soft and glowing. Her hair was wet. She must have had shower.

I touched her silk night gown. She's so tiny, I could pick her with one hand. She was just not leaving me. Something was happening now.

Am I getting desirous to kiss her? Well the way she was bringing herself on me would definitely make me wild. I won't wait for your yes or no damsel.

It won't take me another minute to put you on the bed and kiss you hard. And take out all my frustration on you.

This would be the best way. Her hands smelled henna, her wet hair falling on my face made me close my eyes and feel her presence.

Why doesn't she look this hot all the time? Go away lizard otherwise I might end up showing you something I don't want to do.

Aarti's P.O.V

The moment I stepped out of the bathroom, my feet felt something like jelly underneath. I looked down.... Oh no that was so horrifying a lizard...

I quickly rushed on the bed. Almost forgot everything with the fear of lizards that I have since childhood.

Though I am not scared even of a lion but lizards, no I hate lizards. I can't even see them. I almost wanted to cry.

Veer was sitting on the bed. I had no clue when I jumped on his lap. I didn't realise at all. I was sitting in his lap. I pointed at the lizard to show him that I don't enjoy his lap.

I was scared until his strong hands had tight grip around my waist. Was he going to do something? I closed my eyes. Should I get off his lap? Pull away from him. My brain stopped working. Oh no his touch was maddening me.

His warm breaths on my neck were making me senseless. My whole body was sticking to him. His hands didn't leave me even for a second. Should I open my eyes and look at him.
