"Riyaaz bhaijaan ne kya gift diya " Mahnoor excitedly asked Mahira who had her mouth filled with gulabjamun, her tai ammi had specially prepared the delicacy for her on her birthday.

Mahira lifted her wrist which was hidden behind her duppatta to give a sneak peek to Mahnoor who got excited seeing the diamond bracelet adorning Mahira's wrist "Waah.....Allah bhaijaan kitne romantic hain"

"Show show" Haya who had her head in her book exclaimed hearing the words of Mahnoor...."sach batao ..Riyaaz bhaijaan ne diya hai?"

"Haye Allah .... aur kaun dega humein" Mahira pouted

"Nahin mera matlab...wo Riyaaz bhaijaan hain.....saal me 5-6 baar gin kar haste hain wo ...... aisa sakhsh itna romantic gift de sakta hai" Haya was not ready to believe her eyes and ears.

"Is hisaab se toh phir hamare bachche hi nahin honge kabhi" Mahira said in a flow but then shut her mouth with both her hands after realizing what she had said.

"Kuch bol nahi sakte Mahi..u see Riyaaz bhaijaan bahut unpredictable hain...jab tumhare is haseen se chehre ne unka nikaah na karne ka faisla badalwa diya.....toh bhai hum khamosh hi rahe toh acha hai" Mahnoor high fived with Haya and both the girls started laughing .

"Riyaaz bhaijaan sab sikha denge...don't worry" Mahnoor was having a gala time teasing Mahira.

-------------

"Haw...yeh kya" Mahira's eyes widened seeing Mahnoor wearing a crop top with shorts and checking herself out  in the mirror.

"Bachelorette party ki dress" Mahnoor said.

"Aur pakde gaye toh" Mahira enquired.

"Hum is kamre se bahar thodi niklenge.......hamare room me hogi hamari party"

"Haan..aur mere liye ? Mai bhi try karti hun..sab bahar gaye hain" Mahira excitedly started rummaging through the shopping bag

"Iss me hai..." Mahnoor gave her a bag and went to change.

Coming out of the washroom Mahnoor hooted seeing Mahira looking drop dead gorgeous in an off shoulder black one piece which was coming down to her mid thighs .

"Mai aati hun coffee bana kar...." Mahnoor said and went out of the room.

"Ek pic lena to banta hai......" Mahira was checking herself out in the mirror. She searched for her phone  but then realized she had left it in her room only. She was walking towards her room a little fast while admiring herself when she crashed into another body. The other person immediately held her soft body in his arms and she lifted her eyes to see the person who saved her.......the green eyes met the brown ones which were turning dark with every second......the unmistakable desire could be seen in those orbs which made a shiver run through her whole body. She immediately stood straight trying to cover her shoulders with her one hand and thighs with another.
She felt herself getting dragged towards her room in a not so gentle manner. The person locked the door and glared at her "kya hai yeh"
"RRiyaaz wo......bas " she started stuttering

"Wo bas kya"

"Hum bas try kar rahe the.....hume..hume laga koi ghar me nahi hai......nhi toh hum apne kamre se bhi bahar nahi nikalte." She somehow explained still scared

"Hume maaf kar de" she asked with tears in her eyes to which he turned away closing his eyes in anger and tried to calm himself down.

After a little while..

"Jao...change karo" he said in a calmer tone.

"Ji" Mahira said and took a dress from the cupboard.

As she went inside the washroom, he sat on the bed and drank a glass of water . The images of her clad in that dress were running in his mind making him clench and unclench his fists. The passion could be seen in his dark eyes. Before she could come out, he left the room lest he does something..presently unacceptable.

Next week, Mahnoor and Zaroon's wedding was held in a lavish manner, where everyone enjoyed themselves.

The Rukhsati was done and now a grumpy Mahira was sitting with a cute expression on her face.

"Kya huwa meri Moto ko" Zain jumped on the couch pulling her both cheeks making her scowl "Na karein"

"Aur jaise mai maan jaunga" He said pulling her cheek again...and then asked
"Kya huwa......."

"Results aane wale hain" she bit her nails......

"Toh...."

"Riyaaz ne kaha hai....kam se kam 90% aane chahiye......agar isse kam aaye to" Mahira stopped

"Toh..." Zain asked taking a bite from her chocolate

"Toh k baad .. unhone kuch nahi kaha" she pouted making Zain laugh "ye toh chhupi hui dhamki hai..."

"Don't worry....Riyaaz bhai ne jo mehnat ki hai tumhare peeche in mahino me.......mujhe toh lagta hai 100% cross na kar jaye" he scoffed remembering Riyaaz teaching Mahira for hours before the exams.

"Aap mera mazaak na udayen" she hit his arm and got up when Riyaaz came out with his tablet "Maru..roll no. kya hai?"

"Results aa gaye?" Mahira jumped

"Hmmm....roll no." Riyaaz asked sitting on the sofe with crossed legs.

All the three pairs of eyes were glued to the tab screen where "Loading" was flashing.

The marks got displayed in a while...and Riyaaz's eyes moved from top to bottom of the screen and a smile got etched out seeing the percentage. Mahira's happiness knew no bounds....she started jumping making both Zain and Riyaaz smile.

"Come here" Riyaaz beckoned her and engulfed her in an affectionate hug kissing her forehead.

"Ahh...mmm" Zain pretended to clear his throat making Mahira come out of his arms at once....

"Congratulations...." he smiled giving her a side hug....and demanded "Mai shaam ko jaldi aa jaunga...treat tayyar rakhiyon"

Before Mahira could reply..Riyaaz said "Hum sab bahar jayenge.....and the treat is on me" ... he smiled .

-------------

Days were passing ....and now it was time for Mahira and Riyaaz's nikaah. Everybody in the family was too excited. The house was filled with relatives and cousins making the occassion all the more fun and exciting.

"Riyaaz bhai ka toh aaj Allah hi bacha sakte hain.......Masha allah...Mahi...you are looking out of this world" Mahnoor, not by any standards, was exaggerating...Mahira was looking breathtaking. Her cheeks seemed to have taken the light shade of red permanently as the teasings were being flowed on her non stop.

Soon the Qazi sahab arrived and the rituals started

Finally the moment came

"Janab Riyaaz Ali wald Sarfaraz Ali... aapka nikaah Mahira Ali bint Haider Ali se tai kiya jaata hai. Kya aapko yeh nikaah qubool hai?"

"Qubool hai"

"Qubool hai"

"Qubool hai"

"Mahira Ali bint Haider Ali.. aapka nikaah Riyaaz Ali wald Sarfaraz Ali se tai kiya jaata hai.Kya aapko yeh nikaah qubool hai?"

"Qubool hai"

"Qubool hai"

"Qubool hai"

The groom and the bride then signed the nikaahnama bonding themselves for eternity.

With that everbody started exchanging hugs and mumbling duas in the air.

Mahira was made to sit with Riyaaz in the hall..where everybody was congratulating them.

All the cousins wanted to tease Mahira because teasing Riyaaz was not their cup of tea. His one glare made them disappear into thin air.

"Bhabhi jaan....lijiye ye kha lein..." Zain brought a plate for Mahira

"Zain bhaijaan" Mahira warned

"Bhabhi aap ne subah se kuch nahi khaya hai....." Zain started his drama ....he knew she was already fed by Razia.

"Riyaaz bhai ... aap hi khila dein...lagta hai bhabhijaan aise nahin khayengi" he then gave the plate to Riyaaz who unashamedly brought a spoonful of rice to her mouth.

"Bhai-Bhabhi ka pyaar" Zain exclaimed receiving the not so famous glare from Riyaaz this time. On the contrary..a very small smile was on his lips...which he was trying to mask somehow and this gave Zain the free hand and he didn't disappoint.

--------

"Haye Allah...aapi hume bahut dar lag raha hai....." Mahira was continuously blabbering with sweaty palms.

"Mahi....relax..." Mahnoor squeezed her shoulders.."You are so lucky...tumhara nikaah us insaan se hua jo tumhe bahut pyaar karte hain......bachpan se janti ho unhe...koi anjaan nahin hain wo"

"Hmmm......" Mahira relaxed a little but then pouted "Wedding night par nervousness toh hoti hai"

"Ahan...what r you expecting..Mahi...or you have some surprise up your sleeve" Haya wiggled her eyebrows.

"Aapi " Mahira whined

"Acha bahut ho gaya.....be calm..haan chaho to thoda aur sharma sakti ho" Mahnoor chuckled

Mahira lowered her eyes and kept fidgeting with her fingers.

The knock on the door gained the ladies' attention

"Arre bas.. ab dulhe miyan ko andar aane do....aur tumlog bahar niklo" Zain said dragging Mahnoor and Haya with him.

"Aise kaise..hamara nekh......" Haya protested.

"Mujhse kahiye..aapko kya chahiye begum" Zain winked making Haya and Mahnoor scowl "Yeh bik gaye hain....kis ne rishwat di hai aap ko.....kal tak toh aap Riyaaz bhai ko lootne ke plans bana rahe the"

"Wo kal ki baat thi...ab mera dil saaf hai" Zain was acting saintly which brought more irritation to the girls.

"Ahhhmm" Riyaaz cleared his throat standing on the door "Aap ka nekh" He handed a bag to the girls making them jump in glee "Shukriya bhaijaan"

"Aur mere liye" Zain pouted

"Aap ko toh kuch nahin chahiye tha"

"Kyunki aapne mujhe dhamki di thi bhai" Zain cried

"Dhamki" Haya frowned

"Kuch nahi kuch nahi chalo chalte hain....bhai thak gaye hain...aaram karenge....." Zain said and then added with a wink "Karenge na Bhai?" With that he ran out of the room along with the girls making Riyaaz shake his head "Badtameez". He closed the door and moved towards his king sized bed where his newly wed wife was sitting with her face covered.

Reaching his desired destination, he made himself comfortable on the bed.....and touched her hands. Taking her palms in his, he rubbed them " Mujhse darne ki zaroorat nahi hai.....tumhari ijazat k bina mai kuch nahi karunga"

He then lifted the red transparent veil revealing his wife's noorani face which was glowing in the candle light. Her eyes were closed.

"Masha allah....." Riyaaz was mesmerized and stroked her cheeks with his cold fingers making her shiver "aankhein kholo Mahira".

Mahira slowly opened her eyes making her green orbs meet his brown ones...where love and passion could be easily seen.

"Can I kiss you" his husky voice made her heart skip a beat. With shyness she nodded and next second her lower lip was pulled by his lips with passion..."I have waited for so long to do this Maru"..he captured her lips in a sensuous kiss making her insides jolt.....his tongue licked her lower lip asking her to open up, but her naivety came in the way " Open your mouth" this time, Riyaaz instructed in a rasped voice. With her lips open, his tongue barged into her mouth sucking all her juices.........after having a good meal, he left her mouth panting for breath. Caressing her swollen lips, he looked into her eyes and whispered "the things you do to me". But then, abrupty got up "change kar lo.....mai washroom me change kar leta hun".

Fifteen minutes later, Riyaaz came out of the washroom in his night dress with a towel hung around his neck....his eyes went to his very own enchantress who had now changed into a red night gown which was waking up his inner demons. Averting his eyes, he came to the bed and laid pulling the blanket on him...."so jao....thak gayi hogi"

"Kya...." the unexpected loud response from Mahira made him frown and sit.

" Kya huwa"

"Hum kuch bhi nahi karenge" She slowly asked surprising him....

"Tum chahti ho...mai kuch karoon" raising his eyebrows he asked with a naughty glint in his eyes, which made her nervous........

"Yahaan aao" he pulled her in his lap and after pulling all her hair to one side, started nuzzling her neck "tum chahti ho hum..." he asked sucking her earlobe and biting it.

"Aah" she moaned and he made her turn.....looking for his answer.

"Seeing her nod" he said "words Maru"

"Hum puri tarah se aap ke hona chahte hain" saying she hugged him hiding her face in his chest.
