Kavin was trying his level best to hide his nervousness from Dushyant as both of them drove to the Shukla for dinner. As soon as the recently engaged couple came back to Mumbai, both of them decided to let their siblings know about their plan to get married soon. Hence, Meera decided to host a dinner for all of them. Kavin and Khushi decided to drop the bomb on Dushyant that very instant.
" Khushi kaha reh gayi? Tujhe kuch bataya usne?"
The older brother asked as he saw their destination nearing. Kavin reminded himself, he was NOT going to reveal anything in any case.
" Haan woh aa rahi hai. Don't worry."
" Waise mujhe aaj ek news deni hai tum sab ko." Dushyant smiled, vaguely.
Mujhe bhi. Kavin thought to himself, shifting uneasily in his seat. Dushyant parked the car in front of Meera's house as both of them stepped down. Kavin adjusted his jacket anxiously, who on earth could've thought that senior inspector Kavin Khanna would be sweating up to his ass about meeting his girlfriend's sister, but he was.
Dushyant pressed the doorbell and within a moment Purvi opened the door, knocking all the air out of Kavin's body as she looked down at her from head to toe. She was wearing a beige knee length dress, her hair tied up in a tight pony, the dress flaunting her perfectly toned arms and legs. Kavin was ogling at her even before he knew.
" Hello bhaiya." She greeted Dushyant with a warm side hug.
" Hello Purvi. You're looking adorable." Dushyant complimented.
" Thank you. You look amazing yourself. Didi kab se wait kar rahi hai." She told him.
" Kaha hai woh?" He asked.
" Kitchen mein."
Dushyant made his way inside, leaving Kavin and Purvi behind. Purvi turned her gaze to Kavin who still stared at her, she pushed him behind gently before closing the door behind her.
" Tum ready ho na?" She asked as both of them stood outside.
" I don't know. Jitna laga tha ussey zyada nervous ho raha hu main. Pata nahi woh log kaise react karenge, especially tumhari didi." Kavin gave the most honest reply.
He expected some genuine support and comforting words from his girlfriend after his little confession, what Purvi did in return was exactly opposite of his expectations. She burst out laughing at his adorable nervousness. She had never seen getting nervous for anything like this before and she truly found it adorable.
" Thank you, that helps a lot." Kavin made a sarcastic remark as he tried to walk past her.
" Arey baba, ruko." Purvi spoke drawing him back by his arm.
Kavin glanced at her, unamused as she ran a tender hand up his bicep.
" Just relax. Everything's going to be just fine. Humein bas unn dono ko sach batana hai. I'm sure they'll be happy for us."
Now those were kind of words that soothed his soul. He gently caressed her cheek before resting his forehead on hers.
" I love you." Kavin spoke, picking her lips softly for a short kiss.
" I love you too." She whispered against his lips as they joined their lips once again.
The dinner table was set up and Khushi arrived with Manik shortly after Kavin and Dushyant. She introduced him as a friend of hers to Dushyant and Meera.
" So, how was the goa trip?" Purvi brought up a topic to talk since Kavin and Khushi were too nervous to think. Manik was merely a new bee in the group, hence he chose to keep quiet.
" It was great! Bohot bohot mazaa aya humein. In fact, hum sab ko agli chutti mein goa hi jaana chahiye. Bohot khubsurat jagah hai." Meera replied, smiling ear to ear.
" Goa ki baat nikali hi hai toh humein tum sab ko kuch batana hai."
Dushyant glanced at Meera, slipping his hand into hers as she signed him to go ahead.
" It's about us." Dushyant added.
Kavin and Khushi were well aware of what the news could probably be.
" Ek minute, bhaiya. Aap apni news bataye usse pehle mujhe bhi kuch batana hai. It's about us." Kavin spoke, pointing between Purvi and himself.
That drew all the attention towards him and Purvi. Dushyant and Meera exchanged glances before focusing their attention back to Kavin and Purvi.
Kavin in took a deep breath, this is it. He slowly placed his hand over Purvi's right on the table. Purvi gulped in a rush of anxiety. Both of them glanced into each others eyes, Purvi gave him a knowing smile. That was his cue.
" Bhaiya, didi.. Main aur Purvi ek dusre ko bohot pasand karte hai. We're together, in a relationship."
That very instant, a genuine happy smile tugged on Dushyant's face. HE KNEW IT! HE JUST KNEW IT!
" I knew it! Dekha Meera, main kehta tha na ke inn dono ke beech kuch chal raha hai? Lekin tum.."
Dushyant couldn't complete his sentence as he saw his fiancée sitting ice cold next to him. Meera's steady composure and the fact that she was absolutely silent made Kavin and Purvi's stomach churn. Purvi's hold on Kavin's hand grew tight as he glanced at Meera.
" Dekhiye Meera di, hum jaante hai aap ke liye yeh sab bohot ajeeb hoga aur shayad aap mujhe Purvi ke liye utna pasand bhi nahi karti, lekin main Purvi se bohot pyaar karta hu. Itna, jitna shayad maine kisi se na kiya ho."
Meera was listening to him intently, Dushyant and Khushi were deep down worried for Kavin, after all they knew how much this meant for Kavin.
" Didi, main bhi Kavin ko bohot pasand karti hu. Aur humein yeh baat aap dono se chupani nahi thi." Purvi added.
" I'm sorry to interrupt, but Meera di sach mein Kavin bhaiya aur Purvi ek sath bohot khush hai. They really complete each other, they understand each other. Maine khud dekha hai." Khushi pitched in as well.
Dushyant wanted to pitch for his brother too! He wanted to do it so badly, but it wasn't the most apt decision at the moment, considering Purvi was his girlfriend's sister and Kavin was his brother.
" Yeh kab hua?" Meera finally spoke.
" Yahi kuch ek mahine ke aas paas. I mean, ek mahina hone aya hai ab." Purvi answered.
" Kya tum dono ne iss baare mein acche se soch liya hai? Are you both sure about being in a commitment with each other?" Meera asked, calmly.
" Bilkul."
" Haan."
Kavin and Purvi didn't need time to think and answer that question. Meera glanced at both of them one more time before she smiled.
" Toh phir mujhe kya problem ho sakta hai?" She shrugged.
Kavin and Purvi were breathless as they stared at Meera.
" Are- are you serious?" Purvi stammered a little with her question.
" Of course! Mujhe toh yeh samajh nahi aa raha tha tum dono mera itna tension kyu le rahe the? I mean, haan Purvi meri behen hai lekin woh kisse pyaar karti hai aur kiske sath khush hai yeh uska khud ka decision hai. She's all grown up and capable of deciding these things for herself."
At that moment, Meera won every single heart present on the table. Kavin heaved in relief, literally. Khushi and Manik were absolutely happy for Kavin and Purvi. Dushyant was so proud of his woman, she was so mature and understanding. He didn't know what he had done in past life to get her in this one.
" Kavin, yeh sab mere liye ajeeb toh hai. Lekin main tumhe na pasand nahi karti. Tum bohot acche ho, aur maine yeh khud dekha hai. I'm sure tum aur Purvi ek sath sab manage kar loge."
" I promise. I won't let you down." Kavin made a genuine promise as Meera nodded in acknowledgement.
" Mujhe toh pehle se hi pata tha, yeh dono ek dusre ke liye perfect hai." Dushyant boasted, leaning back in his chair, making everybody laugh.
" Accha ab hamari news!" Meera announced and next moment Khushi interrupted her.
" Meera di, I swear I'll just take one moment! This has to be done now. It's about us."
Dushyant felt his palms sweating as Khushi pointed between herself and Manik.
" Main chaar din yaha se dur kya chala gaya mere dono bhai behen settle hi ho gaye. Aur koyi dhamaka karna bacha ho toh woh bhi kar do." Dushyant rubbed his temple making everyone chuckle.
" Waise mere paas bhi ek choti moti news hai, tum logo jitni exciting na ho shayad."
" Main aur Meera shaadi karne wale hai."
Three months later, Dushyant stood at the designer's boutique waiting for his to-be bride as she tried her wedding dress on.
Things were just perfect for all of them. Dushyant and Meera let their families know about their willingness to get married, since Meera didn't have much of a family, CID team stepped up to fill into the space. ACP Pradyuman and Ashlesha were more than happy to welcome Meera to be a part of their family. While Kavin and Purvi also let themselves open to everyone and everybody was equally happy for them.
Kavin won over Meera's trust by time, she now looked at him as a perfect guy for her little sister. While Dushyant and Khushi adored Purvi too. Khushi and Manik started their post graduate degree in the same college, though it took Manik a while and lot of efforts, eventually he managed to get approval for himself as Khushi's boyfriend from Dushyant and Kavin.
It was finally that time when Meera and Dushyant were set to tie the knot with each other. Both of them were ready to embark on a new journey of life as husband and wife, together. The whole team was celebrating their wedding, every one was helping in the preparation off duty.
While Dushyant was lost in his thoughts, the door of changing room opened, grabbing his attention. Meera walked out, looking absolutely breathless!
She wore an elegant looking red lehenga with delicate embroidery of small beads and pearls. The border of lehenga was heavy and had typical rajasthani patch work. The top or choli was comfortable as it ended just above her belly button with matching embroidery as the lehenga. A long red duppata pinned to her head like a beautiful veil. As they say, a girl looks the prettiest in her wedding dress, Meera was a perfect epitome of that. She looked imparallel.
" So, how is it?" Meera asked her ogling fiancée.
" It- it looks.. Wow! You look unreal." Was all Dushyant could manage to speak, making her chuckle.
" You're going to have a tough time keeping your eyes off me on our wedding day, mister Khanna."
Meera grinned at him as she turned around and walked back to get the dress packed up. Dushyant was speech. Did he just see his wife? He was overwhelmed and emotional. Both of them picked up the dress from boutique as they headed towards Meera's place.
Meera place was already in the wedding vibe due to lightening and flower canopy. All the ladies were present in there, talking about their wedding preparation and shopping when the engaged couple walked in. After letting all the girls swoon over her wedding dress, Meera and Dushyant finally walked in her bedroom.
Both of them glanced at her bed on which rested some of the most beautiful things of their life. There were Meera's red bangles which she was supposed to wear in both of her hands after the chooda bharai ritual as per punjabi traditions. Dushyant belonged to punjabi family and Meera insisted on performing all the punjabi rituals. Then there were lot of henna cones, about to be applied on her hands, there were turmeric boxes along with a box of sandalwood powder. Jewellery boxes and make up stuff was at the end of bed, Meera placed the wedding dress next to make up kit as she ran her gaze over everything.
Dushyant sensed the vibe as he wrapped his arms around her from behind, placing a soft kiss on her cheek.
" Nervous?" He asked, rubbing soothing circles on her waist.
" Thoda sa. Excitement bhi bohot hai. Dekhte dekhte hum shaadi tak pohoch gaye, Dushyant. Aisa lag raha hai hum kal hi toh mile the." She spoke, making him chuckle.
" We've come a long way, haven't we? Milne se le kar, tum par woh jhoota ilzaam lagne tak, phir tumhara meri maa se milna, tumhara mujh par hukum chalana, tum ne kitne aasani se mere gharwalo ka dil jeet liya. Aur aaj dekho.. Kuch hi dino mein aap miss Meera Shukla se missus Meera Dushyant Khanna ban jayengi, madam."
Meera couldn't help but blush at the mention of her soon to be new name. How much she liked Dushyant's name as her middle name. Being Missus Meera Dushyant Khanna was her choice and she was willing to accept all the responsibilities coming along with it. She loved Dushyant, she loved Dushyant's family, which was about to become her new family. Dushyant's responsibilities were increased as well, he was about to become a family man in all true senses. He was about to become a husband to the woman he loved from the core of his heart. They were about to accept each other completely, mentally, emotionally, physically and in every aspect possible.
" Dushyant.." Meera spoke, running her hand over his.
" Hmm?" He hummed, still resting his head on her shoulder.
" Hum ready hai, right?" She asked, resting her head on his chest as he stood straight.
" Right. Hum bilkul ready hai, Meera. Don't worry."
Both of them stood their holding each other, calm. Enjoying the warmth of each other, the touch of each other, the feeling of having each other's company. They had to get used to it now since they were going to have it for ever now.
Kavin stopped his car on the cliff of a hill, the sun was about to go down as they were the only one's to be present at the place. Kavin and Purvi both scanned the surroundings thoroughly, making sure there was no one around them. Once they were sure both of them glanced at each other, a meaningful smile tugging to their lips.
" Perfect place, perfect time."
Just two words that came out of Kavin's lips, that was Purvi's clue as she unbuckled her seat belt and he did the same. As if the seat belt was something that held them back, and now that they were free from it, Purvi captured his lips the very next moment. It took him a moment to sink into the feel of her lips hovering over his with a hunger that cannot be tamed easily. She found her way to his lap as he pushed his seat back, providing her enough space to squeez herself in. She did it like it was a cake walk for her. In all honesty, it had been over three months for both of them having been in relationship and they were crazy about each other. Number of people around them and their duty always made them cut their intimate moments short. Both of them wanted to be close to each other, so close that it'd make difficult for both of them to feel their individuality. An intense make out, both Kavin and Purvi knew it was coming, some or the other day. They were ready for it. They wanted it.
Purvi let out an unintentional moan as Kavin's lips switched from her lips to her neck. He started leaving a trail of hot kisses over her warm flushed skin. She could feel her blood boil, in a positive way of course and rush up her cheeks. Her hands roamed over his chest, attempting to remove his black leather jacket which kept her from accessing all of his well built and alluring body. Kavin was a gym freak. He worked out and followed his diet to the T. His toned arms, strong biceps, broad shoulders and chest, roughly chiseled stomach were the outcome of all his efforts invested in the gym. Purvi successfully pulled off his jacket, throwing it on the back seat, letting her hands run free over her boyfriend's body, exploring areas which even he didn't know he had in his body.
Her lips never left his face, in fact they moved down wards as she kissed his jawline before moving to his neck and briefly to his shoulders. Kavin felt like he was set on fire. His girlfriend and her seductive gestures were causing havoc inside of him. He wanted to feel her as well, explore her as much as she was exploring him right now. Fact being, never push a man to such edge where the fire inside of him errupts, because after that point, he becomes uncontrollable. Purvi felt goosebumps on her skin as she felt his hands slipping beneath her shirt, reaching for her bare and exposed skin. She was least bothered about it nor was she nervous about him having his hands under her shirt. She wanted him to touch her, she wanted him to know how fortunate he was to have access to her body. She wanted him to become an admirer of her body.
Kavin knew he didn't want to take his hands off the moment he touched her skin. He explored her body, closing his eyes in order to dissolve into warmth of her body. She had a fit body, curvy in all right places. He gave seductive presses on her stomach and sides while they locked their lips again. Her hands tangled in his thick quiff of hair, attempting to tie futile knots in them. Both of them smelt just fine, being used to of each others' cologne. Purvi propped herself on her knees as she wrapped her arms around his neck bringing him closer to herself.
An unusual desire burned through both of them as Kavin dared to move his hands up further towards her chest. He moved to her back to unhook her bra in which she helped him willingly. Once the piece of under garment was unhooked, he resumed to the front side. His brain went numb when he touched her exposed breasts. He pressed the delicate part of her body, rubbing the dark spot of her breast with the tip of his finger. Purvi moaned uncontrollably. After all he had his hands on the second most sensitive and delicate part of a woman's body. No matter how badly Kavin wanted to unbutton her shirt, take off her bra and explore her throughout, he knew where to limit himself. He wanted to do things to her that would drive her crazy, she wanted him to worship her body. The wild desire was killing him and her as well, but they still hadn't left the hand of reality yet which reminded them that they were out. In his car. None of them wanted their first time of making love to happen in a car.
After a bit more of caressing, pressing and kissing, both of them sat still embracing each other. Minds still knocked up from the unexplainable make out session, lips swollen, body still burning with the essence of each other's touch. Kavin slowly moved his hands beneath her shirt and hooked her bra back to how it was initially. The sun was on his way back to home as Purvi shifted on his lap, sitting side way, resting her head on his shoulder.
Kavin gently ran his hand through her hair, sensing something being off with her.
" Kya baat hai, Purvi?" He asked, softly.
Purvi took a moment before answering him.
" I'm going to miss Meera di. Kuch dino mein woh chali jayengi."
Kavin smiled faintly before pressing a small kiss to her head.
" Woh nahi hongi toh kya hua? Main hu na. Tumhe bilkul akela nahi mehsoos hoga, I promise." He comforted her.
" Do you promise?" She smiled.
" It's a gentleman's promise, Purvi." He shrugged, bringing her closer to his chest.
Both of them knew they were in the right place with the right person. They were in love, and they knew it was going to last.
