Amaan's POV

I'm waiting for my butter but she is late. Now I'm regretting telling it to my family, I should have married her directly then introduced her to my family.

"No one cares about me 🥺, I should have married her instantly." I was sulking then heard a chuckle to see my butterfly. I turned my face to the side as acting I'm angry with her. again, I heard chuckle and heard her foot sound as she is nearing me.

"Is my baby angry with me?" I didn't turn towards her to show her my disappointment but I'm happy that she came for me and not angry but little bit of teasing is not any harm.

my body became stiff when I felt that she is hugging me from my back, thousands of butterflies running through my body, a relief rush through my veins and my hand automatically went to hold her hand which was resting on my chest. no words, no background Music, no settings all we heard was air gushing sound along with our heartbeats with our eyes closed.

suddenly I heard sniffling sound, and my senses got alert, and I turned and hugged her tightly by caressing her head. "Bachcha, what happened? did someone said something? wait I'll ask them" but in return I got another tight hug. I exhaled loudly feeling frustrated because I couldn't bear to see her tears. 

"Butter what happened bachcha " again I asked "you are angry with me" I cooed at my baby cuteness when she said it with eyes full of tears and a pinky nose. I kissed on her forehead and the tip of her nose "I'm sorry baby, I'm not angry with I was just playing around butter" as I said she again hugged and said "please don't even for a joke tell me that you are angry with me and don't turn around even if you're really angry please scold but never turn around. I can't bear it"

"Off course butter I'll never do that okay and please forgive this stupid husband of yours" I said by holding my ears by giving her puppy eyes and she finally smiled. 

Author's POV 

Then the air between them had shifted.

It wasn't anything either of them said. Just the way the silence stretched, thick with everything unspoken.

They stood close too close for it to be nothing. Isha's back rested lightly against the balcony wall; her hands curled around herself. Amaan stood across from her, arms folded, his eyes fixed on her like he was trying to read thoughts she hadn't said out loud.

"You always do that," she said, not quite meeting his gaze.

"Do what?"

"Look at me like that."

He stepped closer. "Like what?"

She glanced up at him, his face was too calm, but his eyes weren't. They were stormy with something else. Something she'd felt building from the day they met, every time his hand brushed hers for a second too long, every time his voice dipped just a little softer when he said her name.

"Like you want to kiss me," she said, barely more than a breath.

Amaan didn't move. Not at first.

Then, slowly, he took her hands which has been around herself, set it on the counter behind her. His fingers brushed hers, lingering.

"I do," he said.

She swallowed. Her pulse thudded in her throat. "So why haven't you?"

His hand came up, gently tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. His thumb skimmed her jaw, and everything in her stilled. The world felt small now just the space between his mouth and hers.

"Because once I do," he murmured, "I won't want to stop."

She leaned in just enough to let him know she didn't want him to.

That was all he needed.

His lips brushed hers, featherlight. Testing. Tasting. Then he kissed her, real and slow, the kind of kiss that didn't ask for permission because the answer was already written in the way she sighed into him, in the way her hands clutched his shirt.

He kissed her like it meant something. Because it did.

And when he finally pulled back, just barely, she didn't let him go far.

But he should otherwise he will lose control, and they had their tomorrow so they should rest. 

"Butter let's go to the room Bachcha we do have our engagement tomorrow after that we can kiss anytime okay" I said "okay but you should cuddle with me" ii smiled at her cuteness, "okay I'll cuddle with you, hmm" I said her by kissing her forehead. headed toward our room.

"Wow... your room gives both Dark and Soft vibes"  i chuckled "okay, let's sleep now. times up we need get up early too"

"Okay then good night" she said by kissing me on my cheeks, i smiled at her "good night butter" I replied to her by kissing her forehead. 

as soon as she slept, I took slept peacefully after a long time. 

let's see where our life's takes will...
