Myra's POV

I removed his arm carefully and tried to get up, but winced in pain, " Ouch!! "

What the hell!!

A lock of my hair was stuck with the button of his nightshirt.

I was bound to come very close to him to untangle my hair from his button and was trying to do it as fast as possible as I didn't want him to wake up and see what happened.

But to my dismay, he opened his eyes and looked surprised.

" What are you doing?? " He asked in a low and husky voice.

I opened my mouth to answer but could not say anything as I
was embarrassed to imagine how the whole thing would have looked like, first thing in the morning when he opened his eyes.

He was lying, with me half lying on him, our bodies touching and I bent on him, pulling the button off his shirt.

" Myra?? What are you doing?? " He asked again after clearing his throat.

" My hair is stuck in your button. I am trying to untangle it. "

" Oh, ok!! Do it. " He said and kept lying there looking at me.

I was getting very conscious of the position we were lying in there. That damn button needed to be unbuttoned.

" Do something... "  I said as I was getting conscious.

" What? Do you want me to do something?? "  He was looking at me as if I had grown two heads.

" Of course, how will I get up from here otherwise. We can't keep lying like this. " I said out of embarrassment and annoyance. 

" Yes... Tell me what do you want me to do. "  He asked in a very cool manner.

What happened to him, is he still sleeping?

Raj's POV

I could not sleep for a very long time and then I finally slipped into the dream world and saw a dream that Myra and I were in a beautiful garden but I could not see or feel anything other than her.

She was walking ahead of me while I wanted to walk beside her to enjoy the beauty of the garden around us because I could not concentrate on anything else because my mind was occupied with her thoughts and I could not see or enjoy anything else.  

So I caught her hand and pulled her to me. It was such a good feeling, I felt as if I had reached an oasis and everything turned beautiful all of a sudden. The relief was so much that I didn't want to leave her.

I kissed her senselessly and held her tightly to my chest as if she would vanish if I lose her. She seemed to be okay with me holding her, I became very calm and enjoyed the time with her in my arms.

Then after some time, I felt that she removed my hand and tried to get out and the very next moment she winced as if she was in pain.

The beautiful dream was diminishing slowly. Out of disappointment, I opened my eyes and saw that she was bent over me, in fact, half lying on me. Our bodies were touching and she was  pulling the button of my shirt.

Oh, God!!

Am I losing my sanity?? Why am I imagining all these things??

But I could literally feel her soft and warm body snuggled against me.

Was I still dreaming??

No!! I was awake.

" What are you doing?? " I asked but I could not recognize my voice as it seemed to be very low and husky. Maybe it was because I was too pleasantly surprised to see her so close to me.

She opened her mouth to answer but could not say anything as if she was trying to find the answer herself. But my heartbeat increased to see her sinfully tempting lips, so close to mine that all I had to do was to pick up my head from my pillow to taste the sweetness of that mouth.

" Myra?? What are you doing?? " I asked again after clearing his throat.

" My hair is stuck in your button. I am trying to untangle it. "

" Oh, ok!! Do it. " I said and kept lying there looking at her as it was like a treat to my eyes. She was in her night dress, with spaghetti straps, and her soft bosom was pressed to my chest, and though I tried to avert my eyes I could not.

She was mine!! My wife! I had a right to look at her.

But you were so annoyed with her last night.

A voice said in my mind.

What is your problem?? If I am angry with her then you have a problem and now I am enjoying being with her, but you still have a problem. Stick to one side. I retorted.

First, you decide, if you want her or not. The voice said.

I am attracted to her... Well, of course, annoyed at her as well.

Why don't you talk and clear everything up?

Mind your business. I replied as I wanted it to shut up. I was enjoying being with her for a change.

She was still lying there in the same position we have been in since I woke up, trying to untangle her hair. I could see that the button of my night shirt needed to be unbuttoned.

Nice nightshirt... I should wear it more often.

" Do something... "  She said.

" What? You want me to do something?? "

What was she asking me to do??

Kiss her?
I was confused as I was lost in my own thoughts.

" Of course, how will I get up from here otherwise. We can't keep lying like this. " She said out of annoyance. 

I realized that she was still trying her best but her position was so inconvenient for her to look at the button to untangle it properly.

" Yes... Tell me what do you want me to do. "  I asked as if I could not understand what to do.

" Help me, open the button. "  She said.

" You want me to open the buttons of my shirt in front of you? "  I gave a shocked expression.

" I have no interest in your button or you. I just want to get my hair free of that button. Open it. "  She was annoyed and embarrassed and was desperate to get away. But I wanted her where she was.

" How can I do that?? "  I said with a shocked expression.

I didn't know, I was an actor too. Someone give me an award for my performance.

If you were an actor, you would not have been paid for this overacting. Stop it!! My inner voice said.

" Raj!! I am not telling you to strip in front of me.  Just. Open.  The. Dam. Button. "  She yelled at me.

Awww...

" Ok!!" I said and took as much time as I could take. The moment, a lock of her hair was free, she got out of bed and wore the matching silk robe over the sexy nightwear.

" By the way,  why were you holding me ?? " She asked.

" I was holding you?? What a joke, it was you who was lying on me. "  I said even though I knew that I must have done it just like my dream.

But I was not going to accept it.

" You had your arm around me when I got up and that's why my hair was... You know that. "

" Yeah but I didn't pull you to me, maybe you came closer to me when I was asleep. Everyone knows I am very handsome. Maybe you ... "

" No!! I would not do that even in my worst dream, after what you said last night.  "  She said.

"  Do you think, I would do that?? No way! "  I said. But somehow I was in a better mood than yesterday.

" Ughhh!! Fine, think about what you want. Now please go out, I need to get ready. "
She glared at me.

Aww...
