The next morning the sun shone bright giving hope to those who were wary of the dark night. The couple were in their own rooms.

Rania decided to go to his room to check up on him. She knocked the door and went inside.

He was sleeping.

She kept gazing at him, it was his face that transfixed her and she couldn't look away. All these emotions inside of her was reaching it's zenith, she couldn't deny it any longer, she liked Sean.J. Knightley.

Not just a small crush, or a liking, and intense feeling she had when she saw him like she knew all along he was the one.

But, of course she would never let him know all that, she couldn't afford to be this vocal with him, she was afraid if he reciprocated he would own her forever and she wouldn't mind.

She went back to her room, her cheeks flushed.

Meanwhile, in London Rachel was having furious, she couldn't understand why her brother was behaving civilly with the Conwell's. She hated that they both had gone out of the country together, she didn't want any Conwell near her family and she was determined to keep it that way forever.

Sean woke up from his slumber and he was surprised it was 11am already. He did his morning rituals had a shower and changed into his clothes and knocked on her door.

He went inside and he saw her sitting on the bed scrolling through her phone. She looked up.

' you're awake and all ready'.

' I see you aren't, what were you doing?'.

' I was talking to my uncle and aunt back in India, they were concerned about me'.

' ok! What did you say?'.

' I told them the truth, they knew little about my father and his family'.

'And'.

' what else there is to say, they were angry when I told them I'm married now, they had all these plans when I would get married, so they were a little disappointed but it's ok!'.

He put his hand on forehead and walked towards where she was sitting.

He sat down and he took her hand in his.

' don't say anything just listen
I'm sorry for what I did you, I really am, but I had to do it our families were at war and in that frame of mind you don't think about anything else'.

She opened her mouth to say something but he didn't let her she pulled her closer.

Her breathing hitched, her hand was on his chest.

' if you want to stop, do it right now'.

Rania couldn't think clearly, his closeness, his words ,his apology everything was just so overwhelming.

They were close, much closer than ever before, than he slightly  kissed her on her lips.

Her eyes were closed and when she opened them she looked at his face, and he knew that instance and he kissed her again, now it was open and she willingly accepted.

His hands were on her waist, while she kept her hands on his chest.

After a while, she stopped to breathe in some air, he looked at her, she was all flushed, her lips swollen.

They had no words to describe what happened.

She kept looking everywhere but towards him, he put his palm on her face and turned her towards him and she blushed scarlet red.

' now that's the red I wanted to see on you'. He said.

She smiled a little.

' there is nothing to be embarrassed about, you know, we are husband and wife.' he continued.

' get dressed and I'll wait downstairs for you'. And he left.

As, the door clicked shut Rania let out her breath she didn't know she was holding.

She touched her face and her lips  were he had touched her and she knew he had changed her, she would never be the same with him again.

She went to the bathroom and was under the shower.

She came out thinking what happened was a dream, but it wasn't.

She had to face him without looking stupid.

She got dressed and applied a little make up and went downstairs.

He was waiting for her in the lobby.

He smiled and he took her hand in his and walked out towards the car.

She smiled he had this easy air around him when he was here, like he was free and could express his emotions openly.

They sat in the car and drove around the city.

They were happy even if they didn't know it then.

They stopped at a cafe to eat and after that they went for a boat ride in the canal.

They were talking about here and there when he asked her
' I've heard you are a good dancer? But I have never seen you dance'.

'I don't dance anymore, it's been 2 years.'

' why may I know?'.

She didn't say anything.

He didn't ask anything further.

They enjoyed their outing and they decided to go back to the hotel for Dinner.

They reached and went to their room and freshened up.

Rania was ready and she knocked at his door.

' come in, Rania'.

She came in.

He was almost ready wearing his watch.

They went downstairs and had a quiet dinner.

They had small talk but all Rania kept thinking was about the kiss.
When she looked at him she remembered when he had kissed her.

It was magical for her.

' what are you thinking'? he quizzed.

' you want a honest answer, it's about what happened in the hotel room earlier today'.

Sean smirked.

' I know I'm a good kisser, but you were' he began.

' stop! Don't make it more embarrassing.'

' I was going to say good for a first timer'.

She looked away.

He took her hand in his and she didn't retaliate.

She was getting comfortable with him.

' ok! Now no more talks about that'.

' more about doing that thing, right' he said making her turn tomato red.

She turned away when she heard another voice.

' Is it really Rania Conwell?'

She stiffened, it couldn't be.
Not now when everything was settling.
