You know it’s love when all you want is that person to be happy, even if you’re not part of their happiness.

Noah and harmony were not able to meet on Friday as Noah had an important presentation so the plan eventually got cancelled.

However Noah tried and convinced his immediate manager to let him attend the photo shoot which was taking place at some cold hilly area. Packing his bag he sent a quick text to Evelyn saying not to reveal about his presence at site to harmony, he wants to surprise her.

He slided to harmony chat and sent her a text.

Me - Enjoy ya babe 😉 Don't miss me much!

Twinkle - What's there to enjoy, 🤐 Anyways gtg see ya!

The company had booked rooms.

After freshening up he made his way towards the site where the photo shoot had already commenced.
He stood at the corner looking at enticing beauty. She is perfectionist.

Harmony wasn't aware of the fact that Noah was standing at the corner staring at her.

After her part of shoot was done, she walked towards the changing room only to see Noah was leaning against the door with his hands crossed in front.

She stopped in her tracks and blinked her eyes to make sure this wasn't a dream.

"Wait! Am I dreaming?! " She asked loud enough. Noah just stood in his place without replying to her.

She pinched her arms and winced in pain, "God Noah! You are here for real " She lunged on him wrapping her hands around his neck.

"Yes for real " He chuckled wrapping his hand around her waist.

"Thank god you are here. There are so many places I want to visit. Now we are gonna explore this wonderful place together " She exclaimed still holding Noah.

"You seem to be thrilled. Anyways let's get inside , you will catch cold." He tucked a strand of hair behind her ear gently and everytime Noah did this harmony felt heart warming.

Harmony was giving touch up to her makeup and noah was leaning against the wall watching harmony. Suddenly Noah held her wrist and pulled her closer to him.

"Huh? What? " Harmony questioned with her brows furrowed.
"Wait! " Noah replied and moved his hand towards her face, " Your eyelash! " He brought his face closer to her, Noah didn't have any idea how close they were standing. Their bodies brushing against each other. Harmony observed the way his eyes were fixed on her fallen eyelash.

When Noah's finger touched her cheek she closed her eyes, "Okay! Make a wish now " Noah whispered while placing the broken eyelash on her palm.
Without opening her eyes she made a wish. She could feel Noah intense gaze on her which made her heart beat faster.

Noah gaze was fixed on her inviting lips, the way her lips moved while she was muttering something.

Without second thought Noah leaned in and placed his lips on hers.

When harmony was about to open her eyes, she felt Noah cold lips pressed against hers and very next moment she shut her eyes closed.

Noah wrapped one of his hand around her waist and pulled her close to him while his other hand cupped her face and he deepened the kiss. There is nothing gentle in the kisses. its passionate, hungry attraction.

Suddenly he pushes her hard against the wall. She moans as he dips his tongue inside , tasting her. His touches send goosebumps all over her body, he runs his hand all over her back and finally settles on her waist drawing circles on her waist. Their lips moving in sync in a rough manner.

They pull apart gasping for air, she looked down unable to meet his eyes while he dipped his face in crook of her neck. Her breath hitched the moment he pressed his lips just below her earlobe.

There was sudden knock at the door and Noah growled in frustration.

"Yes! " Harmony answered taking a step away from Noah.

"Harmony, " Ian walked inside, he looked between Noah and harmony and continued, "I am done with shoot. I thought we could go out for lunch "

Before harmony could reply Noah answered, " Oh actually she can't come today, she - she " Noah was thinking what to say.

"I am going out with noah. We can have lunch tomorrow I guess " Harmony completed giving a small smile to Ian.

"Yeah okay " Ian turned around and shut the door behind him.

Noah raked his finger through his hair, "Let's go and have lunch then " He stated without meeting her eyes.

While having lunch, Noah cleared his throat for third time now.

Harmony dropped her fork on table and sighed, "Alright! Whatever you want to say, just say it "

"How did you know I want to tell something?! "

"Say it noah " She pressed her lips straight and waited for him to continue.

"About you know - " He scratched the back of his neck.

Harmony placed her hand on his, "Relax "

"I just wanna say that I really like you " Noah blurted and let out a deep breath, "Woah! This is more easier than I thought"

Harmony eyes went wide, she batted her eyelids. Noah observed her expression and his face fell.

"You - I - I am sorry " He whispered lowering her eyes. He felt awful for blurting out his feelings. It's been only two weeks since he knows harmony in person. She might not feel the same about him.

"Sorry for what?! " Harmony shrugged.

"I know you don't feel the same -"

"No, no Noah! I do really like you but I am just taken back by the way you said it. I didn't expect you express it so fast. " A relief rushed over Noah face after listening to her words.

So she likes him too!
