ARNAV

I stood in front of the mirror, looking at my reflection trying to look as perfect as I could. Today was our big day, Khushi and I were finally tying the knot and there wasn't anything that could make me happier.

"Okay dude, enough of the staring, you look perfect and we are getting late, we need to go." Aman said as he walked inside my room dressed in a three piece suit.

I nodded as I followed Aman outside where Ishani was waiting for me with Diya and Dhruv my only siblings who supported me, I dint even know if my parents were going to attend the wedding or not.

"Look at you, so ready to get married to Khushi and look at that glow on your face, you seem so happy." Ishani smiled as she walked towards me and just stood there staring at me.

"But you don't seem happy to me. Is everything okay? You spoke up for the first time in your life, I'm sure things wouldn't have been good." I looked at her worriedly.

"Well they aren't but today's your big day let's not talk about sad things." She continued smiling.

"No, tell me, what happened." I looked at her seriously.

Since I left from there last week, I hadn't had a chance to talk to Ishani, I just got busy in the preparations, I did try to call her so we could meet and talk but she always said she was busy, maybe she was just trying to avoid the conversation.

"We are not leaving from here until you tell me Ishani." I looked at her seriously.

"It's nothing big. I just wanted to wait until you got married to give you the news. I... I decided to get divorced. I just can't tolerate that shit anymore so yeah that's the news. I am done being weak." She smiled faintly, I was so happy that she decided to take that step, I mean I knew she was married to my brother but the way he treated her, he deserved this.

"What will you do? Where will you live? You know you can always come live with Khushi and I?"

"Don't worry, Aman suggested I could take your room here because now you'll live with Khushi and I have some job interviews lined up so I'll be good?" She smiled.

"I am happy for you, it was high time you moved away from them." I smiled at her.

"Yeah, us we still have to grow up." Dhruv and Diya pouted.

"Don't worry, I couldn't move out until I was grown up too." I smiled at them. Seriously why didn't my parents realize this? Because of their stupid beliefs and strict rules, they were going to lose their family one by one?

"Anyway we are really late, we should leave for the temple." Aman interrupted, we all nodded in agreement and rushed out.

*****

By the time we arrived at the temple, Khushi and Ananya hadn't arrived yet, I was so glad to have arrived earlier than her, otherwise she would keep complaining that I was late but it was okay if she was late, my drama queen.

I just smile at the thought of her, before her, I never smiled at such stupid random thoughts, and now I was always smiling about tiny things, she made me so happy.

I couldn't wait to see her, dressed up in her beautiful bridal outfit, dressed up as my bride, damn it, she was going to look out of the world.

The priest was already there and he had prepared everything, we all were just waiting for Khushi, I just straightening my sherwani hoping the ironing hadn't been ruined by sitting in the car, I just wanted to look as perfect as her.

We heard the sound of a car hooting outside and I knew that must be her, holy hell, my heart was already racing.

My eyes were stuck on the staircase waiting for a glimpse and in the next few moments, there she was.

Oh My God! What did I do to deserve this girl in my life? She was so damn perfect.

She was dressed in a traditional Indian outfit, red in color, it was beautiful, she had a veil covering half of her head, she had the most beautiful jewelry on, in short she just looked like the most beautiful bride ever, I couldn't really describe in words how beautiful she looked.

"Hello Mr. Raizada." She winked as she stopped in front of me.

"Why do you always look this perfect?" I pouted.

"Because I am Khushi Gupta, the model duh." She laughed as we all laughed along with her.

"Okay you have a lot of time for the cheesy lines but the auspicious time will pass if we don't begin the ceremony now, sit down." Ishani said as she walked towards us.

"Can we wait for a while? Maybe mom and dad would come?" I asked her, she looked at her watch and then back at me.

"Just five more minutes, if they don't come, just know that they won't. I am sorry Arnav, I wish I could do something." Ishani said sadly.

"it's okay, it's not your fault." I smiled as I kept looking at the staircase hoping that they would come, if not them at least my other siblings, but with every minute that passed by without their sight, I started believing they chose their beliefs over my happiness and some time ago I would really be hurt, but since I started my treatment, I had just learnt how to accept things for what they were.

"We can't wait anymore Arnav, the ceremony has to begin." Ishani said after a few minutes. I just looked at her and nodded, I inhaled a deep breath and decided that I wasn't let it ruin my wedding.

"Okay now come on you two." She pushed us slightly to where the priest had made the arrangements, we both sat down just staring at each other and smiling like idiots that were too much in love.

Although we weren't the only couples that seemed so much in love, something was definitely going on between Aman and Ananya.

I mean the wedding had begun and they were supposed to concentrate on us yet all they could concentrate on was each other, they just kept on staring at each other and gesturing stuff to each other, I knew Aman must be saying something flirty because Ananya couldn't stop blushing.

"Okay Aman, I know my best friend is looking hot but you can flirt with her later, let her concentrate on me right now." Khushi giggled.

"Oops, I'm sorry." Ananya pouted as she rushed to sit beside Khushi. Everything seemed perfect, I had the people that mattered around me, what more could I ask for? The best part, I was getting married to Khushi!

Here we were being tied together, and being tied to someone never felt greater than this, here was to our together forever.

*****

After the wedding, we headed to Khushi's house where we both were supposed to live after getting married, I was sure if my parents attended or got any idea that I was movie to Khushi's house there would have been a lot of drama, usually, it's the girl that moves in with the guy but given that I dint have a house currently and Khushi had a great one, why not. It was home for us, and that was enough.

We stood outside while Ananya and Aman rushed inside to prepare for some rituals, they came back in no time with all the things that were needed for the welcoming rituals.

Once we were done with them, we both walked in holding each other's hand, looking at each other and smiling, everything about today had been just perfect.

Aman headed back home once we were done with all the rituals as he still had to help Ishani settle at his place, Ananya headed to her room and Khushi and I headed to our room.

Until today, it had been just her room now it was our room.

I locked the door and turned around to find her seated at the dressing table already taking off her jewelry so I rushed to stop her.

"Hey! This is my thing, today I'm going to take it off for you." I said.

"Oh really?" He asked as she stood up and looked at me.

"Yes, I have going to remove everything you're wearing one by one, and by everything I mean everything." I winked at her making her blush.

"I see." She giggled.

"Yes darling, today is going to be beautiful. Today I will make love to you as a husband." I smirked at how cheesy the words sounded. Khushi just laughed as she let me take off her jewelry and her clothes, I took my time, slowly teasing her as I did it.

Once I was done, I stepped backwards folded my arms and stared at her from top to bottom, instead of getting shy, she posed at me and it was funny, and great and just... perfect.

"How about I return the favor?" She winked at me and then started moving closer.

"Sure." I smiled as I lifted up both my arms, it took her less than a minute to undress me and once we were done undressing each other, I grabbed her, pushed her over the bed and jumped over her like a wild beast.

"Ready to be Mrs. Khushi Arnav Raizada?" I smirked.

"Ever ready Mr. Raizada." She said and I smashed my lips on hers immediately, kissing her wildly.

"I promise you won't forget this night." I said to her.

"I don't want to." She replied.

I started drawing invisible designs all over her body with my fingers, my lips placing kissed all over her body as she moaned my name continuously, and then when she was least expecting it, I pushed her towards the bed and grabbed her front the front, pressing her tightly against my body.

The rest of the moment just faded with both of us just moaning out of pleasure, tonight had to be the greatest night ever, everything about it felt so passionate, so deep, so good, it was like marriage was all we wanted.

We lied down on the bed almost an hour later, beside each other naked, we dint even need a blanket to cover us as we were literally sweating.

"Wow." Khushi said.

"I know." I smirked, she moved closer to me, rested her head on my chest and just lied there along with me, and I knew, this was how the rest of my nights were going to be like, sleeping next to her peacefully.

I couldn't have asked for anything more than this when I saw her for the first time at the club that day, she had always been my Cinderella and I was always going to treat her like that, like my princess.
