I always update so late at times but you guys still manage to give me so much love and support with your likes and comments on my story. Just... Thank you so so sooooooooo much!!!!!!!! Anyways I'll let you guys read the update now :D

Smiling, she leaned down and pecked his pouting lips before she placed a gentle kiss on the cheek she'd just slapped – if it even counted as a slap that is.

She cupped his cheek with her right hand as she said, "For the last time, the past doesn't matter Arnavji. This is something we've already sorted out, and I see no reason to dig it up and make a whole big thing out of it again. We made it clear to each other last night that from now on it's only going to be about you and me. Period. So stop thinking about what's already happened and start thinking about the future. We have a plan to end that L75 Sunil and Sheetal tomorrow, and that's all that matters right now. Okay?"

When she got no reply she repeated, "Okay?"

Arnav nodded, finally giving into her words, making her smile.

As she laid back down on his chest, entwining her fingers with his again, getting comfy so they could set off to sleep again, she said, "By the way, I can't wait for tomorrow."

"Why?" Arnav asked.

"Because tomorrow, after we send the evil villains to hell, I can finally have my happily ever after with my Prince Charming... And frankly... I can't wait!" she replied with a big smile.

Now that made Arnav smile – a full-fledged one.

Not knowing how else to let out his feelings, he lifted up Khushi's chin and took her lips into a kiss... A kiss that showed her how much he loved her... how blessed he felt to have her in his life... how excited he was to start a new life with her...

*******************************************************************

The next day, Arnav and Khushi went to Aman's house unhappily – or so they pretended.

Only they knew how hard it was for them to walk together, yet with such a huge physical gap between them.

The moment they woke up this morning, although they knew they had an immensely important and serious day ahead, all they had been able to think about in that moment, was touching each other and getting as close as they could.

After last night, it seemed that almost all barriers between them had been broken down. After all, they had broken each of their limits yesterday, expressing their love to each other in the most primal way possible, only leaving the very last part of the act undone.

After feeling intimacy to that extent, it was an impossible task for them to keep their hands off each other in the morning. And it didn't help that they were still in their inner wears only from last night... making their hunger for each other come back full force in the morning as they saw each other in that undressed state...

It was lucky that they had both woken up early, because it gave them just enough time to explore each other once again – of course still staying within that one boundary they had set last night – just enough to satiate them for then.

Only they knew how hard it was for them to straighten their faces as soon as they were close to Sheetal's house.

The moment they got out of the car, all Khushi wanted to do was run into Arnav's arms, while all Arnav wanted to do was grab Khushi and kiss the daylights out of her...

But they didn't do that – or I should say they couldn't.

When they were about to enter the house, Arnav took a step towards her, but she stepped away, turning her face away as if disgusted by him... which made Arnav's hands turn into fists.

Though they couldn't see anyone around yet, they just didn't want to take the risk.

And luckily, unknown to them, Sheetal had been watching them from a hidden corner rejoicing in the partition she had created between them... And another man, sitting hidden in a car, from quite a distance behind them, smirked as he noticed the rift between the two, making plans as to how he can use that to his advantage...

Just as they'd taken the first few steps into the house, Sheetal walked into the hall casually and acted as if she just saw them then.

"Oh you both have come! Come and take a seat! Lunch is ready," she greeted.

Both Arnav and Khushi obliged, with Arnav offering a polite smile while Khushi put on a fake smile.

Aman wasn't at home as he was at work.

As they all chose their seats, Khushi purposely avoided sitting next to Arnav and instead went to sit beside Sheetal, making sure that Arnav had no choice than to sit opposite her.

Although Khushi had avoided being seated next to Arnav, she had also cleverly made sure that Arnav would not end up sitting next to or opposite Sheetal. They may be on a mission today, but that still didn't mean that she would let another woman anywhere near her man. And Arnav seemed to catch on to this too as he secretly gave her an intense look, almost as if conveying that he understood her intentions and he loved it.

Sheetal however, was completely clueless to all this and seemed to be lost in her own little world, rejoicing over the fact that she will get Arnav all to herself very very soon.

Just as Sheetal had finished serving the food and everyone was about to start on their lunch, the doorbell rang.

"Who could it be at this time?" Sheetal wondered aloud. Then she turned to Arnav and Khushi and said, "Just give me one minute – I'll check who's at the door."

With that she went towards the door and opened it.

"Kesi ho betiya? (How are you my child?)" Arnav and Khushi heard a strong, old man's voice addressing Sheetal.

"Uncle aap?! (Uncle you?!)" Sheetal exclaimed with pleasant surprise. "Come in! Come in!" she invited excitedly. "It's been so long! How have you been uncle?!"

It was then that Arnav and Khushi finally got to see who had entered.

There stood a tall man, probably in his late 40's, though he still looked quite strong for a man of his age, talking to Sheetal cheerfully as if they'd known each other forever – and from the way they both talked, it seemed that indeed they did.

Only a few moments later did Sheetal remember that she already had guests at home and she had to introduce them.

"Oh I'm sorry! Arnav, Khushi, this is Sunil uncle. My father's cousin. When me and Aman had lost our parents, it was him who helped us most with our education and everything. But as we grew up, we ended up in a different city to him so we couldn't keep in constant touch. I think I'm seeing him after 3 whole years now! And Sunil uncle, this is Arnav and Khushi. They are friends of mine and Bhai's," Sheetal introduced them to each other.

As soon as Khushi heard the name 'Sunil,' she felt a shiver run down her spine as she remembered L75. After all, that was his real name too. But then she brushed that feeling off when Sheetal went on to explain how they were related.

When she finished her introduction, they all exchanged polite hellos. And for some reason, Khushi couldn't quite understand why he looked so familiar although she was sure that they'd never ever met each other before.

But soon her thoughts were brushed off as the uncle joined them for lunch and took his seat next to Arnav.

They had a gala time as they all made jokes and had fun while having their lunch.

Even after lunch, they all sat in the living room together for quite a while and got themselves into casual conversations, talking about everything and nothing, just lightening all their hearts.

However, when it started nearing 4pm, Sheetal started to realise that she still hadn't spoken to Khushi as she'd intended to. After all, that was the whole point of calling them in today.

So Sheetal said all of a sudden, "Khushi, can I speak to you for a minute please? I'll forget if I don't do it now..."

Khushi turned to look at Arnav with disgust for a brief moment, as she knew exactly what Sheetal was going to talk about. She was going to try and convince her that the moment Khushi had witnessed between Arnav and Sheetal was nothing but just a brother-sister moment.

And that just brought back the hurt, pain and disgust caused by Arnav a few days ago, and that definitely showed on Khushi's face. Or at least that was what Khushi was trying to enact in front of Sheetal.

Khushi just nodded and followed Sheetal upstairs, leaving Arnav and Sunil to have their man to man talk.

When they got into the room, Sheetal started, "Khushi, whatever you saw that day... Arnav was just telling me that he was in love with you... I'll admit that I had feelings for him..."

Khushi just listened, looking down at the floor.

"But Khushi... I just couldn't control my feelings after being so close to Arnav... I mean... that one night... when he touched me... I just couldn't ignore the attraction I felt towards him... and him towards me..."

Khushi froze as she heard Sheetal's words. They... They... She couldn't even bear to think the words!

"He told me to pretend it never happened the next day... And we did... But I couldn't help but develop feelings for him..."

"But that was until he told me that he was in love with you Khushi. I can assure you that he has no one in his heart except you... I mean... whatever we had was over a year ago now, and anyways it wasn't love... The only one he loves is you Khushi," Sheetal tried to assure.

"Wh-wh-what hap-pened that n-night?" Khushi asked, feeling a wave of emotions hit her hard.

"Khushi I think it's best if you don't kno–"

"Tell me," Khushi said, sternly.

"Actually... Voh... I had a party to attend that day, and I needed a date. I mean, I'd asked my brother at first but he couldn't make it as he had his own agenda with his old college friends, so I asked Arnav if he would come with me, and he agreed. It was a western-themed party so I was wearing quite a revealing dress and everything... It had all gone fine during the party. But when we were on our way back, there was a lot of traffic as it seemed that an accident had happened on the road. We had to wait a long time on the road, and I guess we just became more and more aware of the other person as time passed. Before we knew it, we... we... started to m-make out..." Sheetal blushed as she continued. "But then the traffic started moving and we stopped. But both of us still couldn't get over the sexual tension... When we reached my house, Bhai wasn't home as well... And things just escalated..."

Khushi suddenly felt nauseous, and she had a hard time not pulling a disgusted face. She felt her anger and repugnance build up as she replayed the words in her head. But even in the haze of anger, she didn't fail to hear the familiar footsteps that were now coming up the stairs, probably towards them.

Arnav who had been talking to Sunil casually, realised that the two girls had been talking for long time upstairs and there was still no sign of them coming down.

So he politely said, "Uncle, sorry I need to excuse myself for a minute. I just need to quickly use the bathroom. I'll be back in a minute."

Sunil nodded politely and said, "Yh sure, take your time!"

And with that Arnav went upstairs, not towards the bathroom, but towards where Sheetal and Khushi were.

On the other hand, Sheetal herself was no less than Khushi – she also realised that Arnav was coming upstairs. And so she continued, "I told you all this because I didn't want you to know anything but the truth Khushi. Everything I told you was in the past. Me and Arnav share nothing between us. There was never any love between us and never will be. Yes I'd made the mistake of loving him, but I've realised my mistake now and you shouldn't worry about all this now. He's yours. Only yours."

Just then Arnav knocked on the open door before stepping in.

Pretending that she just saw Arnav then, Sheetal said, "I've told you everything I needed to, Khushi. Now I'll leave you two alone to sort out your differences."

And with that Sheetal walked out of the room, giving Arnav an encouraging smile, and then after she passed him, her smile transformed into an evil smirk.

'Now I'll see how she lets you anywhere near her Arnav,' she thought.

She closed the door behind her and then stood there, not moving, listening into what was going on inside.

She heard footsteps coming towards the door, and just as she was deciding to bolt, she heard the sound of the door lock being put on, making her relax.

As the door was closed and they weren't speaking too loudly, she could only hear bits and pieces of what they were saying.

"Khushi I hope you now know that I love you. Only you Khushi..."

"Don't touch me!!!" she could hear Khushi exclaim. "Don't touch me with... touched another woman!" Sheetal couldn't hear the whole sentence.

"You lied to– mmmph mmmph."

And then Sheetal couldn't hear much... except for what sounded like a slap... Or slaps I should say... And a few "Khushi I love you." "Get off me!" "Khushi trust me!" "Let go!" "Khushi you're the only one for me." "Don't touch me!" "You bast***!"

Sheetal got confused as to what was going on inside, but she didn't really care. Even if Khushi was getting raped by Arnav, she could care less. As long as Khushi and Arnav didn't get together, she was happy. And if Arnav wanted to fulfil his physical desires with Khushi, that was also fine. He can have his fill of her once, but after that he had to belong to her for a lifetime.

Now forget Sheetal my friends, don't you want to find out what actually happened in the room between Arnav and Khushi? Well here it is:

When Sheetal left the room, Arnav locked the door from inside and gave the room a quick check to see if there were any hidden cameras in the room by any chance. Since it was a guest room, there wasn't much in the room so it was easy to check for cameras and once he was sure there were none, he walked towards Khushi and said, "Khushi I hope you now know that I love you. Only you Khushi..."

Khushi smiled and nodded as she willingly went into his arms and snuggled into his chest.

"Don't touch me!" she exclaimed for the sake of Sheetal, though she tightened her arms around Arnav's back.

"Don't touch me with the hands that have touched another woman!" As she yelled those words, her hands explored his back underneath his shirt.

The second Sheetal had told her that she had slept with Arnav, she knew she was lying.

She knew for a fact that Arnav hadn't been with any woman in his entire life except herself. His every touch, every hug, every kiss told her that. So she knew that sleeping with another woman was way out of his league.

Khushi knew exactly what Sheetal wanted to hear when she left through that door, and so she decided to give it to her, letting her think that her plan was successful.

Arnav on the other hand was a little surprised when Khushi starting shouting those lines at him. But then when he felt her pull him closer to herself, he understood that her body was following her heart, while her mouth was following a plan from her brain.

Trusting Khushi on her plan, whatever it was, Arnav just focused on using this little spare time to love her.

He just couldn't control himself anymore, and when she started yelling, "You lied to–" he just cut her off with a mind-blowing, passionate kiss.

Of course, Khushi responded with the same intensity, meeting him tongue for tongue.

When they eventually ran out of breath, Khushi pulled back so she could reach Arnav's face, and placed a hand on his cheek so that her palm was facing outwards. Before Arnav could wonder what she was doing, she slapped her other hand on the hand on Arnav's cheek, making it seem like she slapped him, though she made sure that Arnav didn't feel any impact at all.

Shaking his head, Arnav smiled as he could tell that Khushi was going all out with this drama. Seeing her enjoying all this, he couldn't help but feel more and more love growing inside him for this crazy woman standing before him.

"Khushi I love you," he said breathlessly, before he dove to her neck placing kisses everywhere.

Khushi clutched onto his collar, feeling the sensations overtake her...

"Get off me!" she yelled, as she drew him closer with his collar, running her hands through his hair.

"Khushi trust me," he said, pushing her up against the wall, lifting both her hands up and holding them captive in one of his hands, tugging her neckline deep down before he bit down on her upper breast.

"Let go!" she shouted, yet she jutted out her chest, towards his skilful mouth, her body aching for more of this pleasurable pain... Only she knew how she was controlling herself from letting out a loud moan.

Just as Arnav was soothing the love bite he'd given her, Khushi forced herself free and pushed Arnav up against the wall, switching their positions, taking Arnav by surprise.

She hurriedly opened up the top few buttons of his shirt, before she moved the shirt aside and took his nipple into her mouth, biting, sucking and licking.

Arnav wanted to groan so badly, but just about managed to control himself as he grabbed onto Khushi's hair, pulling her closer as he felt the pleasure overwhelm him.

And this continued on for the next few minutes, with Arnav sounding like he was trying to pacify Khushi, and Khushi sounding like she detested Arnav in that moment, yet they were both taking the time to love each other and explore each other's bodies secretly.

After around 4 minutes or so, both Arnav and Khushi knew that their time was up. It would look suspicious if they stayed any longer, so they had to put a stop to their love scene.

They both pulled away from each other reluctantly, and gazed into each other's eyes, gaining encouragement and confidence from each other.

They quickly rearranged their clothes and hair so that they looked a little more presentable, but still looked like they'd had (and still were having) a bit of a tiff – verbally and physically.

Once they were ready, they gave each other one final hug.

"Ready Khushi?" Arnav whispered in her ear.

Khushi simply clutched his collar, trying to gain strength from him.

Understanding her plight, Arnav pulled back slightly to place a hand on her upper breast, exactly where he'd given her a love bite less than 5 minutes ago.

"Whenever you feel nervous, or scared, just remember I'm always with you," he whispered. "All this will be over before the sting of this love bite stops," he murmured, before placing a tender kiss on her forehead.

After giving her a few seconds to take his words in, "Now are you ready?" he asked, pulling her into him by her waist.

"Let's do this," Khushi replied with a smile, a determined glint her eyes.

Phew! I finally finished with this update too!
