ARNAV

I hadn't seen Khushi for three days, and it was kind of driving me crazy, every time I passed by her house, she wasn't around. All I wanted was to just sit with her for five minutes, have a look at her and appreciate the fact that she was mine.

I kept pacing around in my cabin wondering what to do, I had tried to call her twice but she told me she was busy in a shoot and will call me later which she dint, I was starting to get worried.

I mean we started dating, we went on a date and everything seemed fine, and now suddenly everything was different, or that's what I thought.

I couldn't really concentrate at work so I figured I'd go home and talk to Ishani, maybe she would help me somehow.

I headed to the parking lot, got into my car and drove home.

When I arrived, I found mom and dad standing outside talking to some of the servants, I ignored them and decided to head in straight but as if they were going to let me.

"Arnav" My father called me, I wasn't really in the moods of an argument right now and whenever dad and I talked, we would always argue about one thing or the other.

"What are you doing?" He looked at me strictly as I walked towards him.

"Excuse me?"

"Just because we spend a lot of time inside this palace doesn't mean we don't know what's happening out there. What's going on between you and the girl you brought home for dinner that day?" He asked. Oh so this was about Khushi? How did he even know, we had started dating like five days ago or something.

But then I forgot, Khushi was a model, obviously the media was always publishing every new thing about her.

"Why do you care?"

"Whatever that's going on between you two it better stop, there is no way a girl like that will become a daughter in law of this family."

"What do you mean a girl like that?" Okay now I was getting angry.

"He just means she's not suitable for our family, I mean have you seen her pictures on the internet, the kind of clothes she wear, horrible." My mother added.

"You two never fail to surprise me. Wake up mother, we live in the 21st century, when will you stop judging a girl's character by the clothes she wears."

"We have traditions in this family Arnav." Dad said.

"Yes traditions where you always treat the women in this house like trash, disrespect them, treat them like servants, and deny them education and decide for them what they should wear and do in their lives as if they have no choice of their own.

The world has moved far away from that, you also need to. Whatever that's between Khushi and I is special and I won't let any of you ruin it, whether you like it or not, she is my girlfriend, and one day she's going to be the daughter in law of this house, let me see who can change that." I walked away from them angrily, that's why I always came home late at night to sleep, because my family and the petty thoughts they had always left me questioning myself as to why I even bothered to live here yet.

"Arnav." Ishani smiled at me, she was seated with Dhruv in the hall helping him with some work.

"How have you been? I haven't seen you in a while."

"I've been coming home pretty late."

"So I heard about you and Khushi, did you finally talk to her?"

"Yes, I took you advice and did what you told me to, and I feel so happy, she makes me so happy." I smiled.

"That's great, I'm happy for you."

My phone beeped so I pulled it out of the pocket and checked the message I had received on WhatsApp, it was a picture from an unknown number.

"Is there trouble in paradise already?" was the message sent along with the picture, once I downloaded it, I found out it was a picture of Khushi with some guy, they seemed really close in it, the way the guy was holding her by the waist almost drove me insane.

"You know, I need to leave, I'll talk to you later?" I said to Ishani as I rushed out of the house and got into my car once again, I dialed Khushi's number hoping she was going to receive my call.

"Hey." She said

"Where are you?"

"Just reached home from a shoot, I was about to call you and you called me. Why are you asking though?"

"I just need to talk to you, I'm coming over."

"Okay, I'll get dinner made for us." She disconnected the call, the burning sensation in my chest wouldn't just go, I don't know if I was jealous, or mad, I just hated that someone was touching her like that, no one had the right to touch her that way, she was mine only, mine!

*****

I rang the doorbell and waited for her outside impatiently, gladly she's the one that opened the door, of course she knew it was me because I told her I was coming over.

She put her arms around me immediately and kissed me leaving me surprised.

"I've missed you, I'm glad you came, I've been dying to see you." She said as she broke the kiss after a while.

She grabbed my hand and pulled me along inside.

"Is that so?" I raised my eyebrow.

"Why are you asking that? You are my boyfriend, of course I'm going to miss you Arnav." She looked at me in confusion.

"Then why haven't you been talking to me? Whenever I call you, you're busy and then you never call back, and then someone sends me this picture today, what does it mean Khushi?" I showed the picture to her.

"Aww, are you jealous?" She laughed at me once she saw the picture.

"I'm just angry that I'm not getting enough attention from my girlfriend. Look I get it I love you and you only like me, but I though you wanted to try."

"Jeez, calm down Arnav. You know what, come with me, we'll talk in my room, I don't want this to be a scene for the servants." She stood up, held my hand and pulled me along to her room, once we were inside, she locked the door and looked at me.

"Arnav, babe I'm a model, you'll see such pictures of me daily, this was for one of the shoots I did recently, I though you would know that, you own a fashion company, you do such shoots daily. And I haven't been able to call you back because I was really busy, I've had back to back shoots, dint even have time to breath.

I used to come home very late, and very tired so I'd just sleep, wake up in the morning and same routine again, I'm sorry I haven't been able to call you, it's just that I was busy that's it." She cupped my face and looked at me so calmly.

"Oh... okay. Why aren't you angry on me though? For behaving like this? I'm sorry I was just worried, I can't afford to lose you, I love you so much Khushi." I hugged her tightly, I wish I could really explain how afraid I was when even such a thought crossed my mind.

"I am not angry because no one had really bothered about me like this. I mean all the guys I've dated, no one really cared so much, so I'm just happy to know that you do care about me, that's why I'm not angry." She smiled at me. You see this was why I was in love with her, she was just so amazing.

"Just so you know, I care about you more than I care about anything else."

"I know Arnav, and that's why I can never stop myself from kissing you." She giggled as she kissed me once again.

"It isn't fair though, do you realize all this while, and I've been the one to initiate all the kisses. Don't you want to kiss me?" She pouted.

"You have no idea how long I've wanted to kiss you, but you are right you've been the one to initiate it always. So to repay that, I'll initiate something else." I winked at her.

"And what is that?" She blushed.

"Do you want me to tell you or show you?" I smirked.

"Show me." She laughed as she grabbed my shirt and pulled me closer, I smashed my lips against her immediately.

Today I was going to show her how much I've yearned for her since the day I first saw her in the club, that white dress she was wearing had driven me completely crazy.

"Just a moment please." I said as I broke the kiss, stood up and walked towards her cupboard while she looked at me in confusion.

I don't know how I was going to find that dress, I mean she had a lot of clothes, of course she was a girl, she had a lot of clothes, but gladly they were arranged color wise so I had to check on the white section and after a while I finally managed to find the dress.

"Can you wear this for me?" I asked as I took it out.

"Sure, but why that specific dress?" She walked towards me and took it from me.

"Because the first time I saw you in the club, you were wearing this dress, so let's say I want to relive the moment."

"Wait, I thought we first met at your office?"

"Yes, that's where we first met and where you first saw me, but as for me I saw you at a club for the first time, you were with Ananya and well, the rest is history." I smiled.

"I see you have a lot of secrets about me, someday we're going to sit down and you're going to tell me all about it."

"Sure, but for now, please change."

"Okay, give me a minute." She smiled as she headed to the bathroom to change, I sat down on the bed waiting for her, it dint take her long, just a minute like she said.

When she walked out of the bathroom dressed in that beautiful white dress, I was left speechless.

"So here you go." She walked towards me, I stood up from the bed, pushed her to the nearest wall immediately and kissed her once again, only if she knew what seeing her in the dress did to me, but well today I was going to show her.

I kissed her all over the neck so roughly, I dint even care that it was going to leave hickeys, I just wanted to go crazy today, crazy for her, unleash all the craziness I'd been holding on.

"Oh Arnav." She moaned as I continued kissed her on the neck. I smirked as I grabbed her thigh, lifted her leg up and pressed myself in between, the dress pulled itself up as I pulled her leg up so I ran my fingers around her thigh just running them up and down as I kissed her on the lips once again.

She grabbed my shirt into fists as kissed me back just as passionately as I kissed her. I grabbed her dress, pulled it up and took it off completely, leaving her in her inners only.

This was the first time I was seeing her like this, I mean I had of course seen her pictures in bikini and stuff, but it was different seeing her like this in real, knowing that now all this perfection was only mine, I couldn't be any more proud of myself.

"Damn you're so hot." I smirked as I started kissing all over her body, from her neck to her chest to the stomach all the way down.

"Are you ready for this Khushi?" I asked, just trying to be sure she was okay with this before I took any step further.

"Yes." She replied.

"Then say the words to me." I smirked, trying to tease her. She blushed a bit but I know she wasn't the kind to be shy, she grabbed my face once again, kissed me on the lips biting my lower lips lightly. This girl knew exactly how to turn me on.

"Make love to me Arnav." She whispered in my ear, well that's all I wanted to hear.

I took her to the bed, pushed her on it so that she was lying there as I finally undressed her completely, for a moment I was left awestruck, I just couldn't stop admiring her.

I took off all my clothes jumped over her, held up both her hands and pinned them over her head.

"Be ready to be mine in the real sense now."
