For The Rest Of My Life (Part-6)

Part-6

After the shoot, despite of being exhausted, I am elated to have a dinner date with Eric. Today I make an effort to look my best. I wear a red off shoulder gown which fits me fittingly. I hold hairs partly with a beautiful hairpin, apply mascara, outline my eyes with eye-liner, apply gloss to my lips and as splash some perfume. I put on heels and see my reflection in mirror with a feel of little self appreciation. Soon there is a knock at the door.

‘Coming…’ I say softly.

He has come. My heart is pounding. I am feeling tingy at the pit of my stomach. I take a deep breath and open the door. Here he is, ready to assassinate me with his killing looks. He is wearing a black suit. A slight hint of subtle and nicely made hair are giving him a perfect gentleman look. He is looking ravishing. His winsome smile has taken my breath away.

Isn’t it a crime to torture someone with killing looks? In which police station I should file an FIR?

‘Hey! Finally I see my pretty lady.’ He says flashing his killer smile.

‘Hii…’ I say nervously.

‘Beautiful roses for the beautiful lady.’ He gifts me a bouquet of red roses.

‘Thank you so much.’ I accept it with smile. I find myself blushing.

‘You are looking stunning.’ He complements.

‘Thank you.’
The pink shade of my cheeks is turning into scarlet.

‘Shall we?’ He extends his arm in my direction. Like an adorable love lady, I circled my arm around his. We walk through the corridor of hotel hand in hand. I am feeling as if I am walking over the red carpet of Oscar Awards Ceremony.

The place he has chosen for our dinner date is a rooftop restaurant ‘The attics’. It is beautifully made with red terracotta tiles. There are lanterns hanging around and beautiful heart shape candles illuminating the surroundings. There are no artificial electric lights. It’s located at 10th floor and from here we can have the view of whole city. The atmosphere is romantic and cozy. Cool breeze is making the environment soothing. This place is no less than heaven. I’m mesmerized. His choice is lovely.

‘Liked it?’ he asks.

I nod in agreement finding no words to describe how beautiful the place is.

Waiter serves us welcome drink with starters. I realize we’re the only couple sitting here. Yes, he has booked the whole venue for both of us only. I am feeling so special now. No one ever made me feel so special ever.

As the night proceeds we finish our drinks and waiter serves delicious food for us. The conversation is going on smoothly. Even though I run out of words he continues it graciously. He is so easy going. He asks about my interests and future plans and listens to them with great interest. He looks so good even when this serious expression on his face. We talk about everything under the sky.

Now I am dead sure of taking our so called friendship to the next level. There is no confusion anymore. I clearly know what I want. I know what I need. I need Eric. I need him till the end of my life. He is kind of guy every girl dreams of. He is my Prince Charming.

Finally he asks me for dance. I affirm gladly. We move to the dance floor. The song plays. 

'Don't wanna close my eyes

I don't wanna fall asleep

'Cause I'd miss you, baby

And I don't wanna miss a thing


'Cause even when I dream of you

The sweetest dream would never do

I'd still miss you, baby

And I don't wanna miss a thing' 


He wraps his arm around my waist. I get gooseflesh as he pulls me closed to him, clutching me in his masculine arms. I inch even more close to him. We stare at each other. Our lips are barely a centimeter away. I am feeling his warm breath falling over my lips. My heart is racing, palms are sweating and mind is wandering in some other world unknown to me. Numbness is all I am feeling. I want time to pause. I lean close to his heart. He lovingly holds me tightly and gives a soft peck on my forehead.

The song ends. With a heavy heart I lose my grip over him. He carefully pulls off his hands from my waist. We leave the place and reach the hotel. He comes to drop me to my room. I unlock the door and switch on the lights. He stands at the doorstep.

‘Good night.’ He says with a smile.

‘Good night.’ I reply.

I don’t want him to go. I desperately want to hold him once again, but I don’t. I stand still, looking at him, wanting him to take the first move. He looks straight onto my eyes and before I can comprehend his next move, he pushes me inside the room carefully and shuts the door behind. He pins me against the wall. Our fingers entwine. He gently bends closer to touch my lips, cradling me strongly in his grip. He kisses me passionately. It’s longer and harder, his lips exploring mine, holding me in trance. It’s a complete bliss. I feel so complete in his arms. My hairs fall against his chiseled face. He tucks the falling strands behind my ear and we pull back. Everything seems so magical.

In a moment, I give in. We may not know each other very well but he is the one who makes me feel alive.

He picks me up in his arms and drops down on cozy bed. I know where the night is trailing to but tonight I am ready to surrender myself to Eric and I don’t care about the consequences. Gosh! It’s demented how much I want him.

To be continued…

Forever in love♥

After two weeks of cold war. Vidaan decided to break the ice. He dialed a well known number on his iPhone. A beautiful face flashed on his mobile screen.  The face he loved more than his life. His reason to live. He waited for the call to be received. "Hello." "Hey love. " "Why did you call me?" "I want to meet you. We need to talk." "No. There is nothing left to talk. " "Naina for the sake of our love please don't say no." After a pause "Okay " "I'll wait for you at the same place." "I'll be there by 7 p.m." "Thank you." Call was disconnected without any further reply. Vidaan glanced at watch. It struck 2:00 pm. "Still 5 hours in hand" he said to himself.  He called his secretary and instructed her to cancel all his meetings for the day. He immediately left office in his favorite SUV. He put on the music and it played "Dil ibadat kar...

For The Rest Of My Life (Part-4)

Part-4  The playlist goes on. I keep on sleeping. It’s 11 P.M. when the ring of intercom disturbs my cozy sleep. They call to know if I want to order my dinner in room. I deny as I have lost my appetite. I sit on my bed for a while thinking what to do now. I decide to spend some time with myself to introspect. Going to beach at this time isn’t a good idea but still I choose to go. I sit at the shore daggling my legs inside the water. The view is panoramic. Surreal shining water under the sky full of twinkling stars. It’s so overwhelming. This natural beauty never fails to surprise me. I look upon the silent sea. It’s looking like a smooth glass pattern. I pick up a pebble and throw it in the water. It causes disturbance to the surface, making some concentric rings, breaking and shattering the symmetry. I think about my friends, career, relationships, love and future. I am recounting my past. I have everything whatever a person needs to lead a happy life. Name, fame, glamour and...

One Night Changed Everything (Last Part)

Last Part The sound of scream made Ridhima shudder with fear. She pulled back. ‘Where did this sound come from?’ She asked. Her voice was trembling with fear. ‘Nothing darling… you don’t pay attention to all this.’ He replied casually. Sweat drops appeared on his own forehead. Some more muffled screams followed. ‘Tell me Samarth where are these sounds coming from?’ She demanded.  She was worried and terrified. ‘From other room…’ He replied, weakly. ‘You mean the voice is coming from the room where Tanmay, Varun and Rudra are staying?’ She questioned, startled. ‘Yes..’ He gave monosyllable reply. He was now little annoyed with this odd time quizzing. ‘What are they doing there?’ She shot another question. ‘They are enjoying their night Ridhi… now you stop thinking about all this. I don’t want to spoil our special night.’ He said and took her hand in his lovingly. Ridhima was little puzzled but she knew how Tanmay, Varun and Rudra are so she let it go. Samarth wrapped he...
