Rehaan's p.o.v:

"What are you upto?" Shrey asked as soon as he entered my cabin obviously without knocking.

"I am submitting Quotation for The sars which you have forgotten.." I said diverting my attention back to the graph sheets, pai diagrams infront of me.

"Rehaan we have already submitted that remember? That hot women from sars came in last week" he said little amused.

Already submitted....? How could I forget....? Am i that nervous...?
Probably... today is the day Kritika is officially moving in with me to Bangalore. two weeks back when she came we went for house hunting according to mom be it only two of us the flat which i was staying a 2 BHK one is not enough so she specially told Kritika to remind me to look for one. At last Kritika convinced me and we went on house hunting. I called a broker and arranged him to show us flats according to my requirements. we went from one house to other only to be rejected by Kritika she was not happy with not even one house, she use to furrow her eyebrows at me and i used to glare and the broker. i wanted her to be happy she married me even so i told her and i wouldn't love her but she was adamant on pouring her heart out for me. I was shell shocked when she said she loves me. I knew she had a girly crush on me back then but i never thought she would end up loving me. It really felt good listening to her say i still remember the way she said i will love hell out of you Rehaan savanth damn that was so sexy it was very hard to keep my hands to myself that night. However back to the topic
At last we found the flat which kritika approved of she said she loved it mostly because of the full length windows near the living room inside. She kept on mumbling how pretty the complete house will look early in the morning when sunrays fall through the window. However that to my nervousness it was because i brought a gift for Kritika it was our one month wedding anniversary i promised myself that i would give her and her love a chance. So i planned a quite dinner tonight. I am nervous if she will read to much into the gesture however, to make her happy is also a part of accepting her love.

"Hellooo earth to Rehaan" shrey snapped his fingers infront of me a little irritated.

"Sorry was thinking somewhere else." I said sheepishly.

"Forget it..... Anyways i came to tell you that the highlands project have been approved when do you want us to start working on it?" He asked.

"Wow... That's a good news and as of starting for project we need a executive start searching for one when if find one.. We will immediately start." I said checking the details for the project.

And thus later i didn't get time to worry about my dinner date.

"Rehaan...." Kritika chirped as soon as she saw me. I couldn't help the amused expression from my face. Isn't she supposed to come at 1. I frowned and looked at my watch it was 3. Shit! I didn't notice.

"Shit! I am so sorry i lost track of time. I was supposed to pick you up" i said feeling complete idiot.

"Oh its okay... Karthik picked me up but couldn't come because he had to rush back." She said waving her hand of as it is not a big deal.

"But you could have atleast called me." I said but soon realised my phone was on silent and i indeed had a missed call from Kritika. Shit! I gave her a sheepish look. She just smiled.

"Now if you are done can we go home... I need a hot shower" she asked. It was then i noticed a suitcase and a small travel bag.

"Oh yeah im almost done just give me 10 minutes. I will be back." I said and rushed to my cabin to shut off all the work and i called to the restaurant to confirm my booking.

We reached home after approximately half n hour. Kritika was busy unpacking the bags and setting all her clothes in the closet while i was doing the same with my clothes which are still lying in suitcase and duffel bag.

I was collecting all the wrapped boxes which have my stuff when i heard a large THUD from our bedroom. I rushed immediately to see Kritika groaning on the floor.

"Are you okay?" I asked as soon as i saw her. I ran towards her side and made her to sit. She was burning.

"You have fever?" I asked her though i know the answer.

"I..I..." She struggled.

"You are burning.... Just lay down" i said... She was not even completely conscious.... she was alright the last time checked. I took her to the bed and tuck her inside the covers. I told her not to move and stay in bed while i go and get her some medicines. She mumbled something incoherent which i couldn't understand. I rushed to the nearest medical hall and brought her some medicine. She was hardly conscious when i showed the tablet and water. She was sweating profusely and that worried me. I sat there rubbing her forehead face and hands with cold water.

I sighed when her temperature came down. I prepared soup for her to drink.

She woke up at 11 in the night. She seemed to be dizzy for a second but she was okay.

"So, finally the sleeping beauty is up" I said startling her. Oops! I didn't mean to startle her.

"Auh... What happened?" She asked her voise horase.

"What do you remember?" I asked her raising a eyebrow.

"That i was folding some clothes and then.... I woke up in a bed" she said. I couldn't help but chuckle at her confused face.

"Did you not know your body was burning?" I asked.

"I fainted" she asked surprised.

"Not exactly." I said.

"Well this is the first...." She said trying to sit up but couldn't.

I helped her sit and told her " I will go get the soup, okay?" She just nodded her head.

By the time i was back she was sitting with her eyes closed.

"Kritika...... Come on let's drink some soup you will feel better." I said placing the soup bowl on the side desk. I helped her drinking the soup in silence. A little colour reached her cheeks and her eyes didn't look that pale.

"What is that?" She asked nodding towards something behind me. That was a box of my things and on top of box there was something wrapped, gift i brought for Kritika.

"That is a gift.... I thought we would have dinner somewhere posh and i would give you that." I said shrugging my shoulders.

"I am sorry"she said quietly.

"What are you sorry for? Your health more important than some dinner" i said.

After few minutes of silence she said "You know ... You could give me the gift" with a smile on her face.

I chuckled at her and brought the gift for her. Her eyes lit like on a Christmas morning.

"Wow... 'Someone like you' this is my fav book but Rehaan i already have a copy" she said with a little pout but however was hugging the book.

"I know.... But look inside..." I said smiling guessing her reaction.
She immediately opened the book and.....

"Oh... My.... God.... This is a signed copy...." She was shrieking. She didnt look like the one not feeling well at all.

"Thank you so much..... How do you even have a signed copy? And are you sure you want to give it to me?" She asked.

"I went for the book launch back then.. And when i came to know you love the author so much i thought this would be a perfect gift." I said.

"You know Rehaan if i am not sick i would have kissed you." She said blushing while i raised a eyebrow.

"You know what? Lets share some germs" i said taking the book from her hand and daring to kiss her, didn't she say she want to kiss me.

"Rehaan.... You will also fall sick" she said trying to pry me off her.

"Kritika... I'm trying to be romantic" i said in a duh tone and continued " if you want you can take care of me when i am sick" . that was the last thing i said before crashing my lips to hers and crawling beside her never losing the contact. We cuddled into each other only kissing for god knows how long until she feel asleep her lips still on mine.
