Meera POV....

"Hyyy babygirl how are you???" He asked with a evil smrik on his face.
"Stay away" I said in terrified tone.
I was hell scared . He was here. Now no one will save me. I started crying weeping but nothing changed. He was in front of me with his disgusting face and looking at me. He started moving and I shouting...
"St..stop stop sto..stop" I was shouting on the top of my lungs but nothing bothered him. He stopped just in front of me and tried to touch me. I move back but tripped my leg and fall on ground with a thund.
"Awwww let me see... do you get hurt???" He asked with a fake sympathy and bend down on my level and tried to touch me.
"Noooooooooooooooooo"

I wake up with a jerk and look around
"No he is not here" I said to myself and took a deep breath to calm myself I closed my eyes
"Just a Nightmare...."

I groan in pain and open my eyes they were blurry. Holding my head I groan again and press my palm to my head to reduce the pain but nothing happens. I sat there for few more minutes and then put my leg down on floor but fall down as I can't balance myself.
How I end up like this ???
My head again started paining so I just let go the question and first let get rid off the headache.
I stand up holding bedpost and drunk some water and blink my eyes for having a clear view. After few minutes I made my way towards bathroom. And it was going 11:30. How can I sleep that much!!!!

I came out from the bathroom and and move toward dressing table to get ready. By the time was 12:15

Today there will a ceremony in which we will worship lord Ganesh.

No shubh (good)event is organised amid hindu tradition without invoking the god and here this is done by inviting lord Ganesh to come home and bless the Weeding.
In this ceremony an idol of lord Ganesh is welcomed to home for prayers.

I wore a long sleeveless frock having rajasthani touch that reach to my ankles. And did a little makeup.

After doing everything I looked at myself and noticed my swollen eyes. Then realisation hits me and I remember what happens tomorrow.

Bhai.... dance....Arjun..... brown eyes..... Nightmare.....I ran away un between the party.....and then that drink....

Shit!!!!!!

How can I??? I mean ok I have a fear but how can I give the right to my fear to lead me. I ruin everything.
How many time I will run like this.....
Many people in the world has brown eyes that doesn't mean I run from every single person.

I sat on the bed with a thud and then think a lot about my behaviour yesterday. Many people may think I am crazy.
"Aghhhh " I groan.
"You know what just Move on".....
My subconscious suggested.
"Yeah... like I didn't try" I said in sarcastically.
"But still try girl..... you need to move on. It was a incident that happened in your past.... don't waste your future because of some dirty incident in past"
She is right.... I'll try again.but first need to apologise for my act and for my own good I think I should stay away from Arjun. He really has intimating power around him. I just just can't explain.... its quite difficult for me to handle his instance gaze husky voice. His dominant aura around him and most important brows eyes.
Sooo Meera you need to stay away from Arjun.okay

"The ceremony will start in evening so I have much time to get ready for ceremony but now I need to go to my bhai and meet him and papa and mummy also " I chirped and made my way outside.i also has to buy some painkillers for my headache.

I got a message from bhai about where they are staying. I know they will stay in hotel but still I want a conformation.
When we were in Delhi Sahil decided that we all stay in hotel but then there plan got changed with mine but my parents didn't change there plan. Sahil pressurize then but nothing help so they are staying in hotel.
I was going so I inform puja but she said she is with Siya on parlour. I wanted to talk to them but it's my mistakes I was late so I decided I'll talk to them in evening. My headache was in control but still hurting a lot. I didn't talk to anyone in mansion because I know whenever I got headache my mood get worse. I snap at people without any mistakes. I shout on my own. In short I behave like a crazy angry bird who lost all control in her sence. So I really don't want my this type of behaviour here and definitely not after what I do tomorrow.
I can sense people are looking at me like I am a ghost. They were gossiping something but I give a deaf ear to them and keep walking. I never saw any family members in the house today.
"Where they all are??" My subconscious asked

"Must be busy in preparation for today" I answer her.

"Yeah... everyone is not free to sleep till 11 in morning" she said actually mocked.
I just rolled my eyes.

I was in parking lot then I hear a voice whom i decided not to hear I became nervous and palm started sweating. I bite my lips and turn and saw the face I decided not to see.

Arjun.....

Author POV...

Arjun was desperately waiting Meera to wake up but seems like she isn't in mood. He himself don't know why but he want to make sure she is fine and also want to her reaction after seeing there pic in newspaper or he wants to conform that did she remember anything about yesterday night. Basically he wants to clear his mind about the kiss.He made his way towards Meera's room but stopped when he hear his friend Gaurav's voice

"Where are you going??? " he asked in a teasing manner because Arjun was just in front of Meera's room door.
"Nowhere" Arjun said in annoying tone. And started walking away. He really doesn't want to give him a chance to tease him.so he lies.
"Ok then come with me.... I have to tell you something" Gaurav said and start dragging Arjun.

Gaurav can see and sense his besti's behaviour from yesterday toward Meera.and after what happene in early morning and his decision make him sure that he definitely care for her it's just he didn't know about his own feelings. he hear the news that in early morning he went to his mother and said yes for marriage.
And his overexcited mother was all ready to accept Meera as his daughter in law. She really like the girl and she make all preparation but she just want a yes from her son which she receive this morning.

All his family know Meera's family quite well as Meera's family know them as well and wanted the alliance. After hearing yes she straight went to ,Meera's family with her family for giving proposal. They were Rajwanshi's but still they follow the tradition of giving a proper visit and proposal as well.This all was going but Meera doesn't have a slight idea that what was going behind her but Arjun was quite aware of there plans.

When Gaurav started dragging him he excuse for a second and went to a maid and tell her that Reporter him whenever Meera wake up.

When Meera came out if her room and started going out the maid noticed her and inform Arjun.

Arjun came to her room and saw empty.
Where she is now?? He thought.

He called the Maid and she informed him that she is outside. Arjun made his way to outside when his phone beep...
It was Piyush's message.
Bhai come to hotel as fast as you can. And yes there is nothing to worry it's just they want to talk to you I'll send the address.

Arjun was knowing that which hotel they want his presence.In which Meera's parents were staying.
He know his mother was currently there talking to them.
He was just quite curious what will Meera say to this proposal.

In somewhere in her heart he want her to say yes!! Because he didn't want to force her. But if she say No.
He will do what make her change her answer.

But somewhere his ego was saying she won't say no.
Girls throw themselves on him.but still it was Meera.

He was lost in his own thought that he didn't noticed that he reach to parking .he search Meera but didn't find her so first he thought to obey his family order then talk to Meera.he sat in his car and drove out of mansion. But then he saw a familiar figure outside of house. He came out of his car and approach her.

"Meera" Arjun yelled to gain her attention.
She hear him and frozen on her spot but turn slowly. He noticed her how beautiful she was looking. He noticed she didn't have tone of makeup. Her hairs were little wet.
Look like she take shower recently he said to himself.

He noticed her head was low she wasn't looking at his face.
He saw her flawless hand and neck. They were beautiful. He noticed her hair how some stands were continuously teasing her. He somehow control himself for not touching her hairs.
He cleared his throat and compose himself.

"Are you going somewhere??" He asked in demanding tone.she just nodded.
She didn't have the courage to look at him she didn't want her fear to lead her again. And his dangerous yet dominant aura with husky and demanding voice wasn't helping.

"Where??? " Arjun ask in suspicion as she didn't know the roads in rajasthan.
"To my parents"she whisper but he hear her.
"Come I'll drop you ... I am going on that way also" he ordered. She mentally rolled her eyes and nodded not wanting to argue.
And she didn't know the ways here.
She sat in passenger seat and he in driver seat.
They both were silent. But Arjun was literally having a war in his mind whether to ask or not. She noticed Meera was looking outside of window. A small smile playing on her lips. But then suddenly Meera saw a pharmacy and she remember she has to buy medicines.
"Stop.."she yelled. She forgot with whom she was. He stooped with suddenly jerk and looked at her.
"I'll just come"she said without looking at Arjun. He wanted to ask but she went away.
After few minutes he saw her coming with a water bottle and few medicines.
Hangover.....he thought.
"Are you ok.???"he ask in concern.
She sat on the seat again and looked at her lap.
"Do you remember anything what happened yesterday" he asked and she looked at him.
Did something bad happened yesterday was the only thought came in her mind.
"No.. " she said simply. He nodded at her. And end the discussion.
If she doesn't remember anything... means I didn't have to explain anything. He said to himself.
Meera was on inner turmoil to ask future questions. She can't help but curiosity was killing her.
"Ummmm..some- something happened yesterday" she somehow gathers her all courage to ask.
"You will see" he just answered her without looking at her. Then the car was dipped in silent.

Arjun dropped Meera and she straight went inside without giving a single glance to him.only she muttered thank you and then disappear.
Arjun was pissed with her behaviour.he wasn't understand why she didn't even look at him.
Am I that bad looking??? He questioned himself then parked his car and noticed a girl winked at him.
Nahh... I am not bad looking for sure he answered his question to himself.
Commonly this type of act it pissed him off but today he wants a conformation that really he is not bad looking.
He shoot his head and huffed.
Because of you Meera... I am thinking this nonsense.

What are you doing to me??

He smiled at his own thought. And call Piyush for telling the room number.

Meera POV....

After the dangerous ride I straight went to my parents room.
As I entered I noticed few people there. I recognise them.

They were Gayatri rajwanshi Arjun's mother and Ranjeet rajwanshi Arjun's grandfather and Piyush were also present.
Okay I am confused now. What they are doing here???
Bhai saw me first and approach me.
He take me inside and ask about my health.
Then I go to them and touch there feets and seek blessing. They blessed me and ask about my health. I looked at my parents they give me a small smile but there was something which I can't understand.

I wasn't understanding why they were here but it will be inappropriate to ask them so I just keep my mouth shut.

Suddenly door burst revealing Arjun.
Now what he is doing here???

I bite my lips and look down. He take a seat near her mother. Then my parents looked at me and then Arjun.

"I think it's a great idea.... I don't think we have any problems" my mother said and looked at my father.

What idea???

"Yeah... but I want Meera to give last conformation"my father said and looked at me..

"What happene papa" I ask in confusion.
Let me tell you I am not having good vibes from there conversation.

"I want you to be my daughter in law beta.... and wife of my Arjun I really like you and I'll be glad if you say yes for the alliance.... " Gayatri aunty said with high hopes and my I frozen.

I didn't utter a single word. I was like I lost my voice.

She looked at me but I wasn't in started to answer her. Someone patted on my shoulder and I came out of my frozen state. I don't what happene to me but I looked at my brother he was smiling my father and mother they were smiling too. There eyes were shining. I saw Arjun's family members face there were looking at me with expectation. They eyes also shining. I was really unable to handle there hopes.
I was sure that I am really not marrying Arjun but I can't deny on there face. I didn't have that much courage.

I looked at Arjun but he was least interested in the conversation. He was scrolled his phone.
My throat were dry. I was unable to register anything in my mind.

Bhai again patted on my shoulder and I came back to reality.

"What you say beta" aunty ask.

"I want some time" I blunt put because I saw the shine on there face Hope's in her voice. I can't deny on face. I am not that much courageous.

" its alright beta take time but I expect a positive answer" Arjun's grandfather said with a genuine smile. I looked at Arjun and found him already looking at me with a blank expression.
I have to talk to him. Only he can make her mother mind to back off.....

I'll take to him...

Author P.O.V..

Meera was determined to talk to him about this but before she asked or say anything Arjun said

"I want to talk to Meera ..... alone " in a authority filled voice.

"sure.... Meera go with yo garden" Meera's mother said and looked at Meera. She also wants to talk to him.

She though may be he also not interested in marriage. As this thought appears in her mind her heart clenched a little. She don't know why but its happen.
She shoot her head to avoid this thought and start moving toward garden.
When they reach garden Meera didn't said anything but looked down. This was making him angry they she didn't even looked at him.

They both were silent then Meera gathered all her courage and said to him "I don't want to marry you" he hear this sentence and now he was furious.

He marched towards her and Meera take some steps back. Her back hit the tree and now he was few inches away from her.
Arjun was not thinking straight. He didn't know why but he didn't like the idea if her for saying no this marriage.

Meera's head was down as she felt his finger near her chin. He lifted her face and she slowly looked at his face.
She didn't want to look at his eyes but then again fate has other plan.

He directly made a eye contact to her. This time Meera doesn't know why but she didn't push him away. She looked in his eyes there were many emotions like anger, disappointment and many more. Arjun was lost in her pitch black eyes. They were very hypnotising for him. They both were looking in there eyes in silence. No one utter a single word only moving breez sound can be listen. Then suddenly Arjun decided to crack the silence.

"Why???" Arjun ask in husky voice with having a tint of anger that he was controlling a lot.
Meera was dumbfounded there.she forgot why they were here.
"Huhh??" She make a sound that make him clear that she is confused.

He move both of her hand and cage her between him and tree. He lean closer and whisper in her ear in husky voice.
"Why you wouldn't marry me??"
This proximate was too much for Meera. She gulp down. His breath was tingling her she can felt then on her neck.Her all confidence was fade away. Her cheek were burning and her knees were very weak that she will fall down. That didn't go unnoticed by Arjun. He snake his hand around her waist. She felt electric shock with his hand. There were totally new for her.
"Answer me..... Amore" Arjun said with little Italian. She didn't understand.

"I -i do- don't wa-want t-too"

she somehow complete the sentence. He was furious but her continuous rejection wasn't helping.his Male ego was definitely hurt. He was Arjun Rajvansh girls throw himself on her and here he wants to marry her and she was rejecting. This fact was eating him. He never face rejection not in any field but here he was facing it continuously. Now marrying Meera wasn't just for saving his family reputation or her too. But now it was the question of his self respect also. He was doubting his decision after saying yes to the marriage but now he was full sure that he has to do it.

"You will marry me "

Arjun said or more declared looking directly in her eyes.

That was end for Meera. Her confidence came from nowhere to her and with a full power she push him. His havd were on her waist so when she pushed him he fall down but not alone. He wasn't really expecting this from her but then it happened.
Now his back was touching ground and Meera was top of him. He was under Meera. Her all hairs were on her face and now falling in his face too. He was angry as hell for her stupid stunt but when he saw her face hus anger flew away. He gently touch her hair and tugged her behind her ear. Meera came to her sence and stood first.

"I'll not marry you and that's final" saying this she was going but then he caught her wrist and pull her. She landed on his chest.
"You will Meera" he says somehow controlling his anger.

Now Meera was on rage she wasn't understanding why he didn't get her answer at once. She was frustrated she wanted to run away from him. She didn't face him more but again she has too. She wanted this stupid meeting to end as soon as possible. She gathered her courage and her anger was ready to snap him.

She freed her hand and fold them.
"Why do you think so??" She question him. He was stunned by her sudden change. Few minutes earlier she wasn't even looking his eyes and bow here she is questioning him.
now he was going to do what he never wanted but had planned for this kind of situation.
On that time he was sure he didn't have to execut this but now this was the only solution.

"Because you love your brother.......I think " Arjun said and smrik when he noticed confusion on her face.
"What do you mean???? " she questioned because she wasn't understanding why he is talking about her brother.

"Meera..... your brother was in London from past 1 year isn't it??" Arjun asked. She nodded.
"And I think you are well aware that for which deal he was there...??" He again asked she again nodded. She remember the deal us with Rajwanshi's.
"And also well aware that how much important the deal is for him ???its his dream right" Now things was getting clear for her.

"Soo.... sweetheart  reject my proposal and I'll destroy your brother career.... crash him dreams...... and the only reason for his disgrace will be you" he said with fack little sympathy.

"No... you will not do it???" She said and tears were flowing down her cheeks.
He was feeling bad and fir the very first time he was feeling guilty but again he remember he has to do it.

"Try me" Arjun said in arrogance.
She fall with a thund on ground. She remember how her brother use to talk about project. How happy he was when he said that he got the deal. How much hardwork he has done for the deal.

"Now it's on you....who will you choose. Make a wise decision Meera" saying this he walk away.

Hyy guy's
