I am dedicating this chapter to chamanjeet

Kiaan looked around for waiter. He needed something strong. He can't believe his shy Piya dancing around Honey in high pumps and backless mid thigh length dress. He turned and walked towards the bar in angry mood.

Ronit who just walked from dance floor with Ridhima looked at his son. He leaned in and  whispered something in his wife's ear. Ridhima looked towards her son who was sitting on the bar chair, sipping golden liquid from crystal clear glass.

"He is ignoring his own feelings," Ridhima said looking at her son whose eyes were fixed on his Piya.

" I think he need his daddy," Ronit kissed her cheek, "I'm coming," he said and then walked to his son, "Why are you not dancing?" Ronit asked keeping his hand on his son's shoulder.

"Well dad party has just begun, waiting for right partner " Kiaan laughed taking a sip from his glass.

"Today you don't need  right partner coz all the girls here are ready to dance so that they can be queen of the cruise," Ronit laughed and took the glass from his son's hand, " enjoy my boy, this liquid will not let you enjoy in right way," he winked and left.

"Hahaha," Kiaan laughed at his father's statement, "as you say dad," Kiaan said in high voice and then again he looked at Tiya who walked towards her mother after dancing with Harshvardhan.

Tiya walked to her mother and aunt's. At same time Samaira came to them with her boyfriend Raj.

"Hey Tiya," Raj smiled and gave a hug to her, then he smiled at two beautiful lady  who were sitting on the chair, "Hello Mrs. Kohli , Mrs. Kapoor," he wished Naina and Ridhima .

"Hello Raj," they both replied in unison.

"Wow party is amazing and I love the live musicians, they're doing well" Samaira said with huff , "Now I am going to dance ,.....

" With me," Sunny finished her sentence "yes bro with you," she said.

"What about you T?" Samaira asked taking her dance card, "no one coz I don't want to dance urgh...my feets are hurting," Tiya said looking down at her feet.

"Who asked you to wear those fu*k me heels?" Samaira whispered in Tiya's ear.

Tiya looked at Samaira who was smirking at her, she shook her head," I am coming in  a moment," she said and left.

"Urgh really who asked me to wear these painful thingy," Tiya mumbled to herself while walking towards rest room.

She stopped once she was in empty lobby and  kneeled down and unbuckled her pumps then she picked them up in her hand "urgh...it hurts," she mumbled massaging her feet .

 "If you want I can help you," Kiaan walked towards her and kneeled against her, he then placed her left leg on his knee and gently massaged. Shiver ran down her spine, her body turned feverish just merely by his touch. She gulped hard and controlled her emotions, " what are you doing here?" She asked.

"Followed you," he smirked then massaged her right leg and then stood up and then he took her hand and  walked her towards the rest room. He was behaving so casually as if this is his regular routine.

"You look different," he said ,his eyes fixed on her pumps. 

"Good or bad," she laughed and turned towards wash room.

"Come fast I am waiting," he ignored want she asked him and leaned back on the wall, folding his hand over his chest.

"What's wrong with Tiya, she never wore these kind of fucki*g thing," Kiaan mumbled and then something came to his mind. He nodded and waited for her to come out.

Tiya adjusted her dress and then she looked down at her heels "I can't do this," she thought. He doesn't feel anything, he doesn't understand that his touch drives me crazy. She took a deep breath and once again checked herself in the mirror and then walked out of the rest room.

Kiaan was still standing outside "it seems  second dance had already begun," he said standing straight.

"I don't care," Tiya said .

"Why?" he turned her around, "Just one dance , I thought you are planning to become queen of the cruise," he said looking up and down.

"She is already a queen of this cruise ," Harshvardhan spoke from behind her. Tiya glanced back over her shoulder, Harshvardhan was standing at the door way of the lift , "I was searching for you darling Tiya and all the girls are inside so I thought you went somewhere alone" Harshvardhan said  but by then Kiaan spoke ," she is not alone." 

"I can see that," Harshvardhan smirked .

Tiya turned and flash Harshvardhan a warm smile, "That's great now I can enjoy dancing with pretty Preeti," Harshvardhan winked at Tiya and left.

"​Aah right queen of this cruise or queen of .." he paused and looked at her "Tiya," he pulled her against him , "Tiya go and change this heels, I can see you are hurting," he said looking into her eyes. "Really Kiaan can you really see me hurting," she asked her eyes filled with unreadable emotions . Kiaan gulped hard and looked away.

"Who is Pretty Preeti?" Kiaan asked changing the subject. He is getting aware that this girl standing infront of him has feeling for him.

"Preeti Kiaan not pretty Preeti and she is twin Sister of Sunny's girlfriend," Tiya replied and looked at Kiaan ,he doesn't asked me for dance but is so excited to know about Preeti, she thought sadly.

"Ohh is she beautiful," Kiaan questioned.

"Damn hot , hotter than you last girlfriend," Tiya replied walking towards the deck. 

"Girlfriend?" Kiaan asked in confusion.

"I mean date Anamika," she laughed.

"Let's go," he pulled her towards deck, "I don't want to miss another dance," he paused and looked down at her hand, "Where is your dance card?" he asked . She pulled her card from her clutch,"here," she said pressing her card on his palm.

"Mam pencil please," he took her clutch from her hand and pulled pencil out ,he then jotted his name on fourth dance then  he turned and kissed her forehead and kept the card inside her clutch and walked towards the dance floor. He was sure Tiya won't dance now as her feet are hurting and if she went for third then for sure she will not dance with him, he jotted his name coz he saw hurt feelings in her eyes, in truth he can't see her hurt but can't even reciprocate her feelings.

Kiaan waited for second dance to end . After music ends he walked towards the dance floor and saw Harshvardhan walking toward him, "Hey bhai meet Preeti Kunal's friend," he said introducing beautiful girl. 

Tiya was right she is damn hot but...."Kiaan thought looking at Harshvardhan and then he looked down at the young girl she must be 19 or 20 year old "umm hey Preeti," he said.

"Hello sir," girl said with big smile on her face ,who will not feel happy and excited to meet Kiaan Kapoor .

Harshvardhan smirked and then excused himself, "umm Mr. Kapoor will you dance with me," she asked hesitantly.

Kiaan smiled he doesn't want to break this girls heart but she is too young for him. Man it's just a dance his brain pointed,"umm yaa.. yaa.. sure," he said offering his hand to her.

"Miss Kohli," a tall, dark guy called Tiya from behind .

"Hey," Tiya turned and smiles "umm..." she looked at him with confusion,she had never seen this guy before, she thought.

"Hi I am Chris Anand ,Harsh's friend from England," he said with warm smile on his handsome face.

"Hey,"Tiya said.

 "May I have pleasure of dancing with you," he asked.

Tiya nodded and took his offered hand.

Kiaan noticed his Piya on the dance floor with Chris. He was laughing at something and then he leaned in and whispered something on his Piya's ear. What the hell wrong with Tiya , Kiaan thought  swirling Preeti and positioned her infront of him, then he wrapped his arms around Preeti who smiled at  him. Kiaan then moved his eyes on his Tiya who was looking at him with sadness in her eyes.
