Sameera glared at Shrithik and aggressively cleaned dining table. Very aggressively.

Shrithik smiled at that and hugged her from behind.

"Don't.Touch.Me."
She gritted out and freed from his grip. Then washing her hands, she picked up her bag and left, slamming the door extremely loud.

He chuckled and shook his head and then went in the kitchen to cook something. She was so angry that she didn't even boil milk for herself.

After her classes, Sameera sat in the cafeteria, aggressively eating her sandwich.

Maaya made her way towards her angry looking friend and sat in front of her.

Raising her eyebrows, she asked
"What happened? Did someone say anything bad about Thalapathy Vijay?"

"And I'll let them live!"

"So? What happened?"

Sameera sighed and kept her sandwich beside.

"Yesterday, he made a really sexy remark about me. That he was feeling like ripping it off and all. And then you know........I..."
A slight blush made it's way on her face.

"I....I felt.....you know right?"
She asked frustrated and Maaya smirked.

"Naughty, huh?"
Sameera looked up at Maaya and nodded slightly.

"Yeah. That. And I was feeling like that the whole day. At night I decided to confront him and he was more than happy. We kissed passionately on the sofa and then I told him that 'not here, in the bedroom.'
He nodded and picked me up. And we kissed till he threw me on the bed. Totally like that in the movies. And then removing his shirt he spoke 'get ready to have some fun, sweetheart'. And do you know what he did next?"

Sameera asked disgusted. Maaya shook her head in no.

"He played a cricket match on his phone and told me that we'll watch it and have fun!"

She shrieked and threw her hands in the air.

"And he said that, not now sweetheart. We've been in a relationship for merely ten days. It's not the right time. And saying this he kissed my forehead and left!"

She said exasperated and Maaya let out a laugh along with a cute aww.

"That's so sweet of him. Now I know he's a nice guy. Not after you for sex."

Sameera shook her head and stood up.

"I hate you. You are also in his team. We are living together for more than four months. Probably in love with each other for one month. But we can't have sex as it is too early. Wow!"

She said and immediately left. Knowing that she let an important fact out that they lived together.

Maaya sat there with her jaw set. Now she was extremely angry. How dare she not tell her?

Sameera slammed the door open of her house and was immediately tackled by Shrithik.

"Sweetheart. My sweetheart. My lovely sweetheart. Are you still angry?"
He asked cutely and she nodded.

Pushing his face away, she looked away.

"Yes. I am. And I'm not talking to you. Is-old man!"
She couldn't speak more as he picked her up bridal style and kept her down in the balcony.

Then hugging her from behind he kissed her cheek. Looking at sunset, her anger probably melted as she now stood leaning on his chest.

"Don't think I'm not angry. I'm still angry at you."

He chuckled and again kissed her cheek. She rubbed it off.

"Don't be childish sweetheart. You would have regretted it at some point. Maybe in future we would have fought, and then broke up. And then you would have thought that 'why the hell did I give my virginity to a bastard like him'. Or are you too eager to just get rid of it?"

Sameera sighed and looked up at him.
"It's not an achievement to have sex with someone. And you know, I'm not angry at all. It's just that I know you are right but I don't want you to be."

He chuckled and hugged her tighter.

"That's a nice thing. I just don't want you to regret anything with me. Anything. Ever."

Sameera turned around and buried her face in his chest.

"When will you stop being so sweet? I really can't imagine anyone being this sweet and a gentleman except Todoroki Shoto."

"That means you are comparing me to him and damn! He's your favourite. So in conclusion, now I'm your favourite not that candycane boy. God, I was really jealous of him."
He mumbled the last part to himself but she heard it and laughed.

"Come on. Let's eat something. I'm hungry."
She said and he nodded.

It was in the night when he woke up. Feeling her discomfort. Sameera was tossing and turning, holding her stomach. Sometimes getting inside the cover and clinging to him, hoping to get warm. And sometimes taking off the cover totally, probably wanting some cool air.

"Sweetheart?"

"Yes? I'll just go to washroom and come."
Sameera immediately replied and in one motion got off the bed.

Shrithik propped himself up on his elbow and furrowed his brows. She was a deep sleeper and she was not sounding sleepy at all.

After five minutes, she opened the bathroom door a little and peeked out a little.
Then with a little pained voice, spoke

"Old man?"

Shrithik immediately got up and answered

"Yes sweetheart? Is something wrong?"

"Uh......can you buy me some pads?"

He furrowed his brows.

"Pads as in sanitary pads?"

She nodded stiffly and then shook her head. He was sleepy, she should not bother him.

"Leave it. I'll just-"

"Which company?"
He asked and she bit her lip.

"Uuh. Nothing specific. Just bring the extra large one. And come back fast. Please."
She said and he smiled softly.

"Of course."

Sameera smiled back and he was out of her sight. She sat back on the toilet seat.

Those bloody cramps. She only had cramps on the first day of her periods. But that constant dull ache, pained more at night.

She was so thankful that he was there otherwise what would she have done.

After about 15 minutes, he came back and gave her the pads. She immediately took them and did her stuff. She was really surprised to see the company she used. He's really similar to her.

Shrithik was sitting on the bed. Waiting for her. She looked so uncomfortable. When the door creaked, he looked up to find her rubbing her stomach and making a pout. She didn't look at him, instead directly made her way towards the switch board.

Switching the lights off she jumped on the bed and tapped Shrithik. He was already looking at her.

"You are a strong guy right?"

He nodded.
"Yes. And I have some additional strength. I'm positive that I'm just as strong or even more as Izuku Midoriya with 100% one for all."

She nodded cutely.

"That much explanation was not needed. But.....if I say that I want to sleep on top of you then what wi-"

"Of course not! Who sleeps on the top of someone? Definitely no!"

She frowned.

"You'll do like that to me? Don't you love me? Nobody loves me."
She mumbled and he groaned and pulled her towards him.

She squealed and giggled. He placed her on his lap and layed down. She also clinged to him like a baby monkey.

"Old man? Why are you not asking me that 'is it hurting too much'?"

"Because you should know how to bear it. And for a fact I know that it is not."

She pinched him hard.
"Even a drop of water doesn't hurt much. But there is still a torture with that small drop of water and *pinch* stop snoring."

"Agh, sweetheart. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Now please. Let's sleep."

She smirked, self satisfied.

It was in the morning of 31 November that Sameera's mother called her. Usually she talked to her father.

"Beta, Diwali is just four days away. When are you coming?"

"Yes mom. I know. Do one thing, tell bhaiya to book a flight ticket for me. I can't come by train."

"Flight is expensive dear."

"It is not mom! We can afford it."

"Okay. I'll tell him. Now I'll just hang up. I have some work to do."

"Sure maa. Love you."

"Love you too beta. Bye."

Sameera looked at her phone and sighed. She was standing in the balcony. She took a deep breath of the cold air of Hyderabad. Really excited to go back. She has not went to her house since June.

Shrithik looked at her and smiled. She looked much comfortable now. Last night, she kept clinging to him and he didn't mind at all. After all, if she'll not then who will?

Now he couldn't control and went and hugged her from behind.

He felt her chuckling and he pouted.

"Why are you laughing?"

She smiled and turned around. Then pecking him, spoke

"You'll not be able to hug me like that in every third minute in Hoshangabad."

He furrowed his brows.
"Hoshangabad? Are you going somewhere?"

"We. We are going to Hoshangabad. My home town, I told you right? It's Diwali and everyone's calling me."

His hands fell from her waist along with his smile.

"I'm not going anywhere, sweetheart. You go alone."

"Why? What happened, old man? Is something wrong?"

He looked away.
"No.....it's not. But you just go......alone."

She cupped his face, sensing that something was wrong.

"What happened sweetheart? You came to Mumbai too, right? Then what's the problem in coming to Hoshangabad? You'll get to know my family. You'll get to know if I'm from a good family or not!"

She joked but he didn't laugh.
Well, it was not a funny joke anyways.

"It's not that Sweetheart. In Mumbai.....it was different. They were your friends. Some people that even you didn't knew. There I had my own place to live. But here, it is your family. Where will I go? I don't want to disturb your family time."

He said and looked away and Sameera couldn't help but smile.

"And what are you? Who are you? Hum aapke Hain koun? (Who am I to you) Family. You too are my family. And there's a big room I've got. You can fit there comfortably."

"No swee-"

He was cut off by her standing on her toes and kissing him. Gently and full of love.

"What will you do here without me, huh? What will I do there without my sweetheart? And you are coming with me. That's final."
She said and he smiled.

"You are saying as if there was any choice. But okay."

"Aww, my lovely guy! I'll die if you don't stop being this cute. You dumb fellow. My little dumb fellow. Awwwwwwwwwww."

"Now you shut up!"
He said, looking away. Blushing.

She jumped, grinning.

"Oh my lovely god! You are blushing! Who knew that a person with the power of Izuku Midoriya blushes like that. Oh lord. You'll really be the death of me."

"As you are any better!"

He spoke and threw her on his shoulder and she squealed. Then laughing she hit his ass.

"You've got a nice ass babe."

"Shut up."

He threw her on the bed and hovered over her. Sameera was positive that he was going to kiss her, but he kept her bag in her lap.

"Get ready Sweetheart. We're leaving in three hours."

And as soon as he said this her phone pinged with her flight ticket.

He smirked and stole a kiss from her astonished self.

"Magic."

He whispered smugly, and left.
