Walking towards their table, which was probably the farthest, we finally reached it, and suddenly, everyone became dead silent. The first thing I did was slump down the empty chair beside Sarah and remove the straps of my heels. Everyone present on the table, which included Dhruv, Sarah, Meera, Nitya, Aarav, Shaurya, and other cousins of mine, were looking at me with raised eyebrows.

"What?" I finally questioned in a bored tone.

Sarah suddenly squealed and hugged me tightly, making me shocked for a second. She is behaving so differently these days. I need to have a bestie talk with her soon.

"Sarah, you can let me go now." I muttered, patting her back.

"What the heck, bro?" She huffed at me and went back to stuffing the cake in her mouth.

I looked at her weirdly and raised my eyes at Dhruv. He only waved off in response, and I rolled my eyes at this.

"You took care of her, right? If not, then you are in big trouble." Dhruv asked Ahaan in a dangerously low voice, who had taken a seat beside me.

"Of course I did. Right Kyra?" Ahaan responded, looking at me expectantly.

I shrugged in response, smiling wickedly at Dhruv, and he just shook his head in defeat.

"You didn't leave for Australia?" I asked Meera, who was sitting across from me.

Everyone snickered at the table, making Meera glare at Shaurya and looked at my direction clearly mad.

"You should be happy that I didn't. I don't even think I am getting a leave anytime soon." She replied in an aggravated tone, rolling her eyes.

I looked at Shaurya, who was grinning mischievously at Meera, and I understood what all it's about. No wonder all that she was talking about since the beginning of her arrival was her boss. I can definitely say if they get together, it's going to be one hell of a couple.

Soon, everyone got busy with each other talking about different things, teasing and bickering. Even Shaurya, who only knows Ahaan here, gelled off quite well with everyone at the table. No more fake smiles, unneeded talks, and zoning out was something I was cherishing for now.

"Here you are both. It's time to cut the cake so Mom is calling you guys." Aradhya said, standing beside me with excitement evident.

I nodded my head and strapped my heels again, standing up. I took Ahaan's hand gratefully, which was held out for me for support. He led me towards the center of the massive living room, which now had a table placed with a beautiful cake on top that left me in awe.

Almost everyone had surrounded us by now, and Ma handed us a big knife to cut the cake. Ahaan took it in his own hand and placed mine on top of his, and I smiled in return. We cut a big piece from the bottom, and Ahaan took a part of it and held out in front of my mouth, which I happily ate. I took a piece from his hand as well and held out in front of his mouth, which he ate, and everyone cheered and hooted for us in the background, making me smile.

"Hello everyone! Now it's time for the first dance of the newly wedded couple Mr and Mrs. Ahaan. Please welcome the couple of the night." The reception's host announced on the mic.

Ahaan forwarded his hand for me, and I hesitantly placed mine on top of his. He then led me towards the dance floor setup on the other side of the living room, where it had a romantic atmosphere. Placing his hands on my waist, he pulled me closer to him in such a way that both of our chests were touching. I inhaled sharply at the close proximity of us that caused butterflies in my stomach. I placed my arms around his neck for support, and he smiled at me in response. The music started playing, and we started swaying our bodies according to the rhythm. The whole time, his black eyes were connected to my dark brown ones, making me lost in their intensity.

"Mine." He murmured against my ear with his hot breath, fanning the crook of my neck.

Shivers run down my spine at his words and physical contact between us, making my heart flutter every second. I turned my head a little, which accidentally caused our lips to brush with each other, and I immediately froze. Ahaan was gazing at me with so much intensity that my face started heating up, but as he groaned and backed up a little, I relaxed.

By now, almost every couple had joined the stage, and everyone was busy with their partners itself. Even Sarah and Dhruv were dancing together, which confused me a lot, but I brushed my suspicions away. Meera was dancing with Shaurya on the other side, and by the looks of it, Shaurya was enjoying a lot, and Meera wasn't. Aarav and Nitya were fighting more than dancing, so it was very annoying for the couples who were enjoying there at the moment.

We danced for some more time and as nothing happened again like the previous time, I was a bit relaxed. Soon, everyone had their dinner, and it was only us who were left. I thought I'll be getting special treatment, but here's a totally different story.

We couldn't even eat now as many many people started leaving as it was already late in the night. We had to attend everyone politely where my stomach was growling from inside.

Now it was only Ahaan, Aradhya, Ma, Papa and I in this big mansion.

"You should go back in the room to change. I'll be there in a few minutes." Ahaan said, coming beside me.

I nodded slightly and turned to the direction of the staircase in the living room. Slowly, I took every step with the support of the railing and exhaled loudly when I reached the top. Turning in the right direction, I started moving to the corridor and finally reached his room.

Opening the door, I stepped into it and closed it again for privacy. I sat down on the daybed and removed my heels, which I had taken a pledge not to wear again. I removed the other accessories and sighed in comfort. I started opening the hooks of my skirt when I heard the door of the bedroom open. I didn't even have to look who was there as I knew no one else would come in this room at this time.

"Whoa there! We have a bathroom and a closet for that. What if it was someone other than me?" Ahaan asked, slight anger evident in his voice at the end when I removed my skirt.

"You think I am that naive that I'll change in the room itself?" I questioned, removing my skirt completely from my body, revealing the black tights I was wearing inside.

"Just misunderstood." Ahaan replied with a smile, raising his hands in surrender.

"Here." I said, standing in front of him with my back in his view.

He took the hooks of the blouse in his hands and unhooked them one by one each time, his touch creating wonders in my heart. Once he opened each hook, I placed my hand on my breasts for support to the blouse and went into the walk-in closet where my suitcases were kept, still unopened.

Taking out my grey sweatpants and a white tank top from one of the suitcases, I wore them in the closet itself. I removed my makeup on the vanity with the help of makeup wipes, which again took a lot of time and washed my face in the bathroom, getting out in a much relaxed condition.

Back inside the bedroom, I saw Ahaan sitting on the bed busy with his phone typing something. I noticed he had already changed into his nightwear, which included just a pair of shorts. He was naked from the top, displaying his six-pack abs, and I totally drooled at the sight of them. I had already taken a look at them when he was at the swimming pool, but it was just a glimpse.

"Take a picture. It'll last longer, wifey." Ahaan voice broke my dreamland of feeling his abs with my hands.

"Why should I take a picture when you'll be there every single time for me to see hubby?" I replied with a smirk sitting beside him on the bed.

"Here, I brought this for you. I know you haven't eaten anything since afternoon." Ahaan pointing to a plate of typical Indian dishes kept on the bed.

"Oh my god. I was so damn hungry. Thank you so much!" I squealed, hugging him tightly.

As I realized what I just did, I cleared my throat and pulled myself back from him, clearly embarrassed with my behavior.

Shrieking lightly as I felt him lifting me up from the bed, I noticed he had picked me up in a swift motion, placing me on top of his thighs with both of us facing each other.

"Ahaan, wh-" I started, but he placed his index finger on my lips, stopping me.

"Shh, now tell me something. Do you feel uncomfortable with this?" He asked, gesturing to our position with seriousness.

My heart was beating loudly from inside, and I was continuously thinking about what should I reply to him. The truth which I know will cause trouble for me or a lie which I don't know could cause anything.

"No." I whispered, looking at him.

In an instant, Ahaan's lips came in contact with mine, and I froze. He was moving his lips lightly waiting for me to respond, but I was frozen at my place. He pulled away slightly as he noticed I wasn't responding to him and ran his hands through his silky black hair sighing a little. All the time, his eyes didn't leave mine, and I came back to my senses, realizing what I just did.

Placing my hands on his cheeks, I mumbled a quiet 'sorry' and placed my lips on his soft ones. This time, I was the one who was kissing as he was still, but soon he responded by moving his lips in sync with mine. We both were molding our lips completely with each other, and I could feel butterflies racing in my stomach. I bit on his lips with my teeth lightly, and he groaned in response and started kissing me more feverishly while I ran my hands on his abs. In between, he tried pushing his tongue in my mouth, but I denied him the access sucking on his bottom lip. He growled lightly and placed his warm hand on my bare waist, drawing circles on my stomach with his fingers. A gasp came out of my mouth at the shivers. I was feeling at the contact of his fingers with my stomach, and he took this as an opportunity to invade my mouth with his tongue. He was moving his lips in such a way that he didn't want any part of my mouth unexplored. Both of our tongues were battling for dominance, and he won it in the beginning itself, exploring my mouth to the fullest. As he slowed down a little breathing in lightly, I pushed my tongue inside his mouth this time. I could clearly taste whiskey in his mouth, and I licked his lower lip with my tongue, tugging on his hair, making him groan. We both were taking in each other's breath for what felt like eternity, and I placed my forehead on his breathing heavily at the loss of oxygen. He was breathing heavily as well, and I pecked him again on the lips once.

"Don't do that again." I said in a warning tone and crawled back on the bed.

"I guess you're still having your periods." Ahaan muttered, running a hand in his hair, noticing my behavior.

I nodded without realizing that I had started eating the food. Eating the first bite, I moaned in satisfaction.

"Don't do that." Ahaan grumbled beside me.

"Don't do what?" I questioned innocently.

"Thi-s." He hesitated, and I chuckled.

He glared at me playfully, and I stuck my tongue out at him. He only shook his head at my childishness with a small smile.

"Here. Have it." I said, forwarding morsel dipped in curry in front of his mouth.

"I thought you'd never ask." He responded and took the bite happily.

This is how I kept feeding both of us from time to time with us talking and remembering about the happenings of the day. The whole time, everything felt as if it's bound to happen. The atmosphere was something as if these things had been happening for a long time. All natural.

"I have to tell you something." He said when I came out from the bathroom, washing my hands after eating.

"Go on." I gestured him to continue.

"We have our flight tomorrow." He said.

"Don't tell me it's one of your business trips. Because if it is, then I have zero interest and I won't come at any cost." I declared with no room left for arguing.

"Relax, Kyra, it isn't for a business trip. It's for our honeymoon." He replied, making me sit on the bed.

"Honeymoon?" I asked wide-eyed.

He nodded and said, "Mom and Dad planned it a long ago, and they gave me this as a wedding gift after you came back in the room."

"It's okay if you don't want to go. I'll find a reason to tell them why we can't go." He said after minutes of complete silence.

"I-" I stammered.

I have no idea what should I tell him. Honeymoon is something I wasn't even thinking of after our wedding, to be honest. What are we even going to do there? It's not like we are a normal couple. We have a lot going on at this moment, and a honeymoon could either make it worse or strengthen things good.

"Don't worry. I'll tell them that I can not go because of business." His voice broke my thoughts.

"No." I suddenly said.

"Exactly. I'll deny them we won't go." He said, nodding his head slightly.

"Uh huh. I mean, don't deny them. I'll go with you. On our honeymoon." I ended my sentence with a sigh.

"Are you sure?" He asked, looking at me.

"Don't make me rethink now." I said.

He nodded his head and started doing something on his phone, which I assumed to be preparations for tomorrow. I had no idea that my honeymoon would go like. What are we even going to do?

"When are we leaving? And to where?" I asked when he was still busy with his phone.

He glanced up at me and sighed a little.

"Greece. Our flight is at 2 in the afternoon." Came his reply.

"Okay." I trailed of not knowing what to respond.

Greece is a place known where couples go who are probably drowned in each other's love or someone who doesn't care much. The whole honeymoon is related to intimacy, bond, and relationship between the two. What are we going to do there? Spend the whole day in the hotel room? Or maybe he'll do his business, and I'll go for solo roaming.

"Don't you need to pack?" He asked after minutes of silence.

"Nope. I'll do it tomorrow. I am really tired right now." I replied with a yawn.

I laid down on the other side of the bed, which was empty as Ahaan was still busy in his phone doing god knows what. Pulling up the duvet up to my forehead, I sighed silently and closed my eyelids.

I don't know when, but I drifted into a deep slumber only to be awakened by someone pulling me. Opening my eyes lightly, I noticed the room was absolutely dark, with no source of light. I could feel Ahaan's body behind mine with the hand he had now placed on my waist, pulling me closer. I turned my body in his direction and I still couldn't see anything, but as I raised my hand, it directly landed on his chest and he pulled me even closer that our bodies were touching completely. I placed my head on his chest and closed my eyes again, now to feel Ahaan running his hand softly in my hair, causing me to smile a little. This is how we slept again in each other's arms with total comfort surrounding me.
