Noor's pov

I opened my eyes when the morning sun teased me through the opened door of our terrace garden.

I blinked to open my sleepy eyes and turned to my left a lil but my breath hitched in my throat after seeing Veer's head resting on my shoulder. His hot breath fanning on my neck and giving chills through my spine.

He is so close. Practically we were sleeping in each other's embrace when I saw at my own hands, Holding his hand and his other hand wrapped on my waist.

I gulped nervously. He is so dangerously close to me. My breath caught in my throat as I don't wanna awake him up.

I don't wanna wake him up and behave like last time. Embarrassed and guilty. So I chose to lay quietly and  try not to awake him.

I looked at his sleepy face,  his hair messed up and he is looking soo cute not annoying.

I would never realized how much good person he became  if I didn't married to him. Yes he was an idiotic - maniac in past, arrogant and always self-centered.

But not anymore. He is changed and that for good. I don't know the reason maybe his ex whom she dreamed that day?

I don't know?

But he changed is mattered and he became a good responsible person. I felt like a proud wife yesterday when the dean said those words for him.

He was shy. Oh God! Veer Singh Randhawa was shy yesterday, after hearing his own praise. His words that he said to those girls where short but effective.

He was phenomenal.

But honestly I still can't believe that he is doing so much for girl-education.

What could be the reason? Is it his ex he dreamed about? Who is she? Where is she? Who is she that she changed him so much?

All these questions clouded my mind. Then he stirred lightly and I instantly closed my eyes.

As if I'm still sleeping.

His hand left my waist and i took the breath that I was holding for so long . Cautiously he freed his hand from my hands try not awake me.

I still pretended to sleep. He touched my forehead lightly. "Fever is gone but still she needs a check up." He muttered under his breath and leave room.

I open my teared up eyes as all the events from yesterday came to my mind again.

How bhaijan ignored me, how my baby Hamza cried and how helpless was bhabhijaan.

Tears rolling down from my cheeks. I remembered how the raining sky was not able to extinguish the fire of loneliness inside me but warm embrace of Veer did.

How much shattered I felt but Veer collected me in his arms. I remember he didn't let me compete my sentence that there is no one to hold me and he hold me and assured me everything will be OK.

His pleadings to calm me and his words still ringing in my mind 'You are not fucking alone. You have US'

Do I?

I don't know?

Because this is just a marriage of convenience and when the contract ends, I have to go. Leaving them behind.

More tears Welled up in my eyes but a warm tumb wipe those tears away.

"Noor are you ok? Why are you crying? Is it because of fever? Huh? Tell me? You feeling low or pain anywhere?" Veer ask all these questions in one breath and worry is not hidden from his voice.

He is worried for me?

He even took care of me last night. Don't think too much Noor. He is just sympathetic over your miserable state. That's it. Nothing else. He will never be more than that.

"The Dr. Is on his way." He said wiping my tears.

"I'm OK." I said sniffing.

"Then why are you crying?" He ask.

"Nothing."

"Are you still thinking about yesterday?" He ask and I shake my head in no. With more tears in my eyes .

"Hey!" He embrace me again "Shush! Everything will be OK. Just give your brother some time. He will forgive you. After all we can't stay mad for long from those we love most."

I didn't protested or tried to come out of his embrace. Call me selfish. I don't care.

But I need this. I need him. His warm embrace the only thing giving me solace.

After some time Dr. Came to examine me and give me some meds.

Maa and Nani came to meet me and console me. As Veer told them about yesterday.

As Veer didn't let me come to office, Whole day I stayed in bed. I also don't feel like doing anything as if energy is drained out from my whole body.

Nani and Maa took good care of me.

I'm just laying and hopelessly thinking about my future. What will happen when everyone knows about our contract marriage?

Maa, Nani and uncle will hate me.

My head is ready to explode any moment. Thinking about all this. The stress is too much and don't even have my guitar to take out my stress.

I didn't sing out my emotions for so long after I married to him.

I sighed and get up. Holding my head.

"Awake Begum?" Veer ask entering inside room.

"Yeah." I replied meekly.

"You okay?" He ask sitting beside me.

"Humm. Just a lil headache." I replied.

"Then let's go downstairs and have some tea with Maa and Nani. You will feel better." He said and we come downstairs.

Had tea and sometime with elders. I really felt good. After dinner we come to our room.

But in middle of night the door starts buzzing insanely.

We both got up from our sleep.

"Who could be at this hour?" I ask looking at clock and it shows 2 o'clock in night.

"You stay here I will go and check." Veer said getting up.

"Are you mad?" I hissed and go with him.

Veer is walking ahead and kept me behind him.

Then I heard a voice "surprise!!!!!!!"

That's her. But what she is doing here?

We were on stairs. I pushed Veer aside, he stumbled or fall ? I don't  care and i didn't even look behind and run hurriedly and saw she is hugging Nani.

But her eyes Caught me.

"NOOR!!!!!!" She squealed in happiness and run towards me.

I instantly hugged her into a bone crushing hug.

"I missed you so much Priiii." I said holding her tightly in my embrace.

"I missed you too buddy. Even I'm coming from Australia. I go to surprise you but Claire told me you are back in India. I skipped the idea of going to shah mansion at this hour but only if I knew I will get a surprise." Prikshita replied.

Yes it's Prikshita. But what is she doing here?

"Noor what are you doing here?" She ask surprised.

"I wanna ask same question." I replied.

"This is bua's (Aunty's) house." She replied and now I'm surprised. Maa is her bua? "But you? Here? At this hour?"

"Ummm." I hesitated and looked around at the surprised faces of everyone. They must be wondering how we know each other.

"Don't tell me Noor is your that best friend?" Maa ask Prikshita and she nodded happily.

"Yes bua."

"Then congratulations she is now your Bhabhi (sister-in-law) as well." Pratap uncle said and Prikshita's eyes wide open in shock.

"WHAT????"

"yes. She is veeru's Vohtti." Nani replied and Prikshita gave me. I'll tear you apart look.

"You got married? Didn't even told me? And that to my brother?" Now I'm doomed. "How could you marry without even letting me know? VEERU?" She yelled at Veer as well, searching for him.

"Priii...." I said taking steps backwards.

"Shut up!!!"

But before she could catch me Veer came for my rescue and hold me from behind.

"Don't be mad at my Begum."

"Begum????????" She narrowed her eyes. "She is my best friend before your Begum Mr."

"Whatever but call it even because I made from BFF as your bharjaii (Sister in law)" Veer said and Prikshita jumped on both of us.

Capturing us into a bear hug.

"Veeru you are the best brother. I love you." She squealed in happiness and now my eyes wide in shock.

Is she bipolar?

"I'm happy for both of you. As you both got the bestest person in life as your life partner." Prikshita said.

"Shareek-e-hayat." Veer muttered and my heart skipped a beat.
