Usually days pass so quick but when I want the days to run they move at snail speed. Saturday was really slow for my liking. Mr. Kapoor noticed me feel very agitated and anxious. That Saturday night again I cooked food for Arham, I had made matar pulao and chicken chilly. Arham didn't even pay attention to me as he sat opposite me gobbling the food. I glare at him; I had taken so much effort in dressing up for him. I wore pink noodle strapped pencil dress and matched it with a white coat, I had also curled the ends of my hair but he didn't once look up at me.

'I hate you' I say angrily pushing my plate away from me. He looks up at me startled.

'What happened?' he says, mouthful. I roll my eyes. He gulps his food and looks at me confused.

I fold my hands across my chest and look away. He smiles

'You are so cute' he says

'Don't you think it will melt me' I say angrily. He extends his hand and places it over mine, I jerk away his hand.

Arham smiles and stands up, he then stands and come towards me.

'I am sorry' he says holding his ears. I feel myself melt, but I will not give in so easily. How dare he ignore me?

'What can I do, the food you made is so tasty that I can't have enough of it.' He justifies himself. I roll my eyes

'And me?' I say angrily. What I meant to ask him is whether the food is more important than me? Arham smirks and held my arm and pulls me closer, he leans in bringing his lips close to my ear and whispers 'I haven't tasted you yet...'

I felt my heart stop for a Nano second when he said that, I didn't know he can flirt too. He takes my hand in his and kissed the back of my palm.

'Very tasty' he says and I blush. Arham smiles and kisses my forehead. He moves my plate towards me and places his palm on my cheek.

'Now please have something...' he says, he takes a spoonful of rice and chicken and brings it to my lips. I smile and eat happily as he feeds me.

That night we again spend talking sweet nothing to each other. I am more than happy, if I was on cloud infinite before then now I am somewhere else. Where am I? I am lost...lost in love. I turn around and wrap the duvet over me, cocooning myself imagining being in Arham's arms. It's really a blessing to have someone you love, love you back. I don't care about whatever happened in the past, what I care is what is happening now? I am truly blessed to have a caring understanding and mature person like Arham in my life, as my fiancé. Gosh! I fell in love with him all over again.

Finally, it's Sunday, I am really excited for today. I will be spending whole day with Arham. I want to look my best, I spent one hour deciding what to wear before zeroing on a maroon cold shoulder top and matched it with three quarter denim Dungaree pant. This time following my sixth sense I also wore black half cup balconette bra and matching black lacy inner. I have always worn simple ones, God knows why I had brought this but good that I did, now I can use it. Perhaps not knowing then that I had got these for today. My sixth sense telling me I will be needing these. I comb my hair and tie it in a loose low ponytail.

I receive Arham's call and my face lights up like thousand bulbs. I quickly adorn my eyes with kohl and applied nude lip gloss and my favourite perfume. I grab my phone, a bug shaped sunglasses and quickly left my apartment.

I met Arham in the parking lot, I smile brightly at him and wanted to hug but just then I see Mr and Mrs. Mehta coming my way. I roll my eyes, Mrs. Mehta eyes me like a hawk while Mr. Mehta frowns looking at Arham and then at me.

To my horror Mrs. Mehta comes towards us. She might spoil my whole day.

'Who are you?' she asks Arham

'Hello, I am Arham Hooda. I am head of marketing department in Ms. Malik's ad agency' he introduces himself politely.

Mrs. Mehta seems impressed with Arham because she smiles shyly at him. I don't blame her, any one will be smitten with Arham's good looks and his charm.

'You are very good looking young man.' She says and giggles. I glare at her, is she flirting with "my man"?

Arham smiles politely 'Are you married?' Mrs. Mehta says. I gape at her. She has no manners, who speaks this way to a stranger.

Arham shakes his head, I stamp his foot and then he nods 'I am engaged' he covers up. Mrs. Mehta's face drops with disappointment while I smile possessively. I nudge his arm and gestures him to show his ring, he frowns at me. I glare at him. He forwards his hand and shows his ring to Mrs. Mehta.

'Very beautiful ring...who are you engaged to?' she further probes.

'Mrs. Mehta we are getting late. We will miss our important meeting' I say irritated. Mrs. Mehta presses her lips tightly and twists it looking at me angrily.

'Your land lady is really pretty' Arham teases me, I glare at me and his smiles drops.

Arham got me my favourite butterscotch ice-cream to coax me, I didn't melt but nevertheless I ate the ice cream.

'Come on, Zahra... I was joking...please forgive me' he says as we take stroll on the Juhu beach hand in hand. I was really enjoying all the pamper and attention he was showering on me but then I don't spoil our outing. Arham has planned this outing with so much love, I don't want to ruin it.

'I am sorry, Arham' I say wrapping my arms around his neck, I tiptoed and peck his lips. He sighs in relieve and kiss my forehead.

We sit there watching the waves, I rest my head on his shoulder. Arham moves his hand and places it over mine. I tilt my head and look at him dreamily. He looks even more handsome from up-close. Arham entwines our fingers together. I look at our joined hands, they look just perfect together.

'Hey Fatso...I love you' Arham says jokingly.

'I love you too' I reply giggling.

We ate lunch at a nearby restaurant and then watched sunset hand in hand. I feel bliss being with Arham, this time I didn't just feel like a couple, we are a couple. I didn't want the time to pass. We clicked loads of selfies, I insisted to click a selfie on me kissing his cheek. Arham was initially shy but I made my best puppy dog eyes and he gives in. I kissed him hard on his cheek and giggled seeing his cheek turn red, luckily my lip gloss is nude else it would have left a mark on his cheek.

We had dinner in my favourite restaurant again. Arham wasn't hesitant this time and I wasn't silly to order prawns or any other seafood. We ate happily enjoying each other's company.

This Sunday was the best Sunday of my life, but the day hasn't ended yet and I wonder what is in store for me next.

Arham uncaps the wine bottle and pours some of its content in my glass and some in his. I am seated on the bed admiring him from far.

We are done with the day and before parting ways Arham had once again offered to have drinks with him. Neither of us wanting to leave.

I rest my head on his shoulder.

'You had fun?' he asks tilting his head slightly and looking at me, I sit up straight up and nod my head.

'I love you so much Arham' I confessed

'I love you too' He replies and kiss the back of palm, I smile. I lean in and kiss his cheek. We drank only one glass as neither me nor Arham wanted to be drunk, it is a mild whisky anyways.

'Zahra, you know I had been noticing you since first day of school' he reveals and I look at him amused 'It wasn't love at first sight for me but I didn't like the way others treated you...then coincidently we became lab partners and then friends. But I really don't know when I fell in love with you' he confesses.

'I had always known that I love you...but I didn't except a guy like you will love me back.' I say shrugging.

'Zahra irrespective of the way you looked I liked you...and was dil se your friend.' he says

I smile, he shifts closer to me. I close my eyes as he places his lips over mine. I feel alive as our lips move in sync. I smile into the kiss as I felt his palms caress my arms lovingly. I shift even closer and place my palms on his shoulder. I move my hands up caressing his nape I pulls his face closer and our kiss deepens. He wraps his arms around my waist and makes me sit on his lap, I caress his hair letting my fingers disappear into his thick Mahogany mane.

'Arham...I love you' I breath as we part our lips and look at each other. Just by kissing him I feel breathless. He cups my face and kiss my forehead. I smile.

I climb on his bed and move back, Arham keeps looking at me. I don't know from where I got the boldness as I turn around and lay on my side moving my hair to one side. I clench the bedsheet tightly as I feel Arham's come next to me. I closed my eyes smiling as he kissed my arm, he moves up and kissed my cheek.

'I love you too' he whispers in my ears and kisses my earlobe, I blush. He trails his index finger from behind my ear to my neck, arm and resting his palm over mine and entwines our fingers. He begins to kiss my cheek and neck. I could feel my cheeks burning. I bite my lip to suppress my giggle, his stubbles tickling my soft skin.

I felt extremely shy as he turns me around. Slowly I open my eyes and find him admiring me lovingly.

The intensity of his look is making me turn into a red tomato.

Arham kisses the tip of my nose, I look into his eyes for few nano-seconds before turning my head sideways smiling. Arham places his fingers on my chin and tilts my head, I look at him and he glances at my lips. He slowly climbs over me placing his hands on either side of me. I lean forward and peck his lips and lowers my eyelashes feeling shy. Arham places one palm on my cheek and places his lips over mine and we start to kiss again. Soon enough our gentle kiss turns into a passionate one.

Soon our clothes were off us and piled up at the edge of his bed. Arham smirks looking at my inners and I blush harder.

'I guess you had planned this...'he whispers. I open my eyes and look at him shyly

'Now that I am engaged to such a hottie I need to be prepared.' I say and pinch his nose. I then realized his clothes were off him too. My shameless mode switches on as I shamelessly gawk at his naked torso. Unlike last time I had seen him wrapped only in a towel, this time I can actually touch him. My fingers shivered as I move my palms over his biceps, chest and abs. Arham smiles, I guess he noticed my eyes turning dark as I eye him lustfully. He bends down and starts to kiss my face.

Sometime, perhaps seconds, minutes, hours later all our remaining clothes were off too and now he is kissing me all over. I tremble under him clinging on to him tightly. The way he kissed me I felt so loved, so pampered. I moan softly holding him closer me as he kissed and explored the untouched parts of my body. I felt like a queen in his arms. He handles me with so much love and is so gentle like I am a petite fragile doll. I felt like I was in paradise. As it is my first time I am too shy to make any move and let him take the lead.

The moment when our body merged, I felt complete. I dig my nails into his back, my eyes squeezed shut, tears spill from corner of my eyes.

He brings his face close to mine and kissed away by tears.

'You fine?' he whispers softly.

I smile meekly at him, he entwined our fingers and pins our intertwined palms against the bed. Our union was initially painful for me but then looking into his deep grey eyes I feel my pain getting nullified.

I was in pure state of ecstasy as we made love. Once we were done, Arham pulls me closer and we cuddle. I look at Arham and slowly move few strands of his hair off his sweaty forehead, he leans in and kisses my forehead.

'I love you so much...' he says and I simply nod feeling too tried to respond.

Sleep was miles away from me even though I was too tried. I have my head rested on his chest listening to his heart beat, hearing his heart beat is so soothing. Arham had fallen asleep soon after our love making session, I look at our entwine fingers. My gaze falls on the silver ring, the ring that I gifted him. I feel a sense of pride by looking at it. Arham is mine and only mine; and I am his. We are finally one, finally complete. I smile and snuggle closer to him, closing my eyes trying to fall asleep.
