A/N- Okay. Sorry for the late update. Thanks for the reviews. I'm missing some of the few reviewers :-( My bad.

Anyways, without further delay lets get started with the chapter.

The credits for the plot and basically the happenings and advancements along with some dialogues are highly inspired from another story I read. This chapter isn't totally my brainchild.

Life was good. Or atleast it seemed to be. Cases were being solved at a good pace. Purvi was quite satisfied by her performance at the bureau. Even her seniors were satisfied. She's doing well. But was she happy? She was not her cheerful self. She missed Nikhil. Even Vineet and Pankaj did. It was not like Nikhil had left them forever and gone far away. He was spending a pretty time with his dentist. But the knowing that he's spending a part of his time with Nidhi, hurt Purvi.

Purvi after the days hardwork enjoyed her dinner with ACP Sir. (A/N: Remember? They live together.) ACP Sir was a god cook. Ever since she'd started living with him, he had always managed to surprise her with different types of dishes. Living with your Super Senior was fun and more fun when he regards you as his daughter. Purvi was doing good as a company for the old man who was all alone in his life. She had known him all these years right from her childhood. But that was from a faraway sight. Living with him for the past two years had revealed to her his unknown, unseen facets. And it was fun.

After finishing the cleaning business post dinner, she came out in the living room to join ACP Sir in surfing the ever-growing TV channels. After some time as her usual habit, she stepped out for her regular night walks in the Society compound. Generally Shreya, Vineet, Pankaj or Nikhil- anyone of them, would accompany her. But today Shreya was out-of-station, Vineet and Pankaj were on some investigation and Nikhil must be at a very precise place at this time.

She was walking alone when she saw him. Nikhil stood there leaned back by the wall, hands in his jean pocket and a faraway look in his eyes. She made her way to him. It was half past nine and she knew Nikhil was at some other place around this time these days. She knew he wouldn't miss a meeting with his pretty dentist.

Never

She was sure that something or maybe most of the thing was wrong if he was still here. But she's confused,

Why is he waiting for me?

She moved further and folded her hands infront of him, furrowed her brows as if asking a question or an explanation. He sensed her presence and turned his gaze to look at her.

"Not seeing the pretty dentist today….huh?"

His face flushed. Head low. He was about to say and she interrupted…

"Nidhi, right?"

"Yeah, Nidhi." He said silently. He looked thoughtful.

"I wanted to talk, Purvi. I hope you have a minute err… to talk."

"What about?" she demanded.

She was surprised. He never asked for permission to talk. He'd just say. They were good partners and would share their hearts out without hesitation. But today, she observed him, he looked sad. Face in despair. Nervousness.

"My Pretty Dentist."

She's again shocked and confused. What made him think that she would entertain his talks about his freaking girlfriend, let alone take a part in the discussion. Priorly she used to, but she knew this time things were serious and she won't stand all that. She would be mad at him if it was We-are-together-and-good-and-hope-you're-well-with-it drill. But again why should she be mad at him- The Unsolved Mystery.

"I'm tired, Nik. I wanna rush home quickly after the walk." She explained.

"Just for a minute Purvi, Please."

She tried to go. He held her hand and tried to stop her. He grabbed her wrist gaining a deadly glare from her. She was a CID cop. Not so easy to manhandle. She pushed him aside freeing herself. He pleaded through eyes and she decided o listen to him.

"Fine. Make it fast." She said as they started walking past the society compound.

"You remember I said that I told Nidhi that I love her. "

"Ya, I do." She paused for a while and said.

How can she forget that day when Nik announced to Vineet and Purvi that he'd confessed his love to Nidhi. Purvi had foun herself in hard time digesting all that stuff and keeping a normal expression., in vain. She was hurt and not happy. She had somehow managed to mutter a sad congratulation and had left thereafter giving some stupid excuse.

"It was a week ago. I didn't really get her reply. But she seemed to be happy, I figured." Nikhil supplied in low tone.

"Wow! So she replied today and now you are together. Lucky girl. She made Nikhil Rawte to fall head over heels for her. I'd love to meet your pretty dentist."

"You wanna meet my pretty dentist or Nidhi? Make yourself clear first."

"But that's the same thing. Nidhi is the girl you fall for. And you told Nidhi that you love her. So she is your pretty dentist, correct?" She asked quizzically.

"Yes, I did. But I don't"

"You're talking senseless, Nik."

"You love Pankaj?"

"Yes, He's my brother."

"How many times have you told him that you love him?"

" Never. I never told him that. But he knows."

"Exactly, You never tell the people you really love that you actually love them."

"What do you want to emphasize, Nik?"

"We- Me and Nidhi, are not together. We just left. I told her we were not meant for each other."

"But what happened?" she said not letting any emotions show up on her face.

"She was just not the girl I wanted. And I wasn't the guy for her. Actually, I never felt anything for her. Infatuation, maybe. I guess."

She was now spellbound. What was all this that was going all these days then?

"You're getting along nicely." She said.

"We were good. I even liked her. But won't take her for my life partner."

Things started hitting her and pieces started making a piture.

"So, you left Nidhi for some other girl. Wo jise tum bata nai sakte ki tum usse pyar karte ho."

He smiled. She smiled. She remembered Vineet's assuring face that said everything had to be alright. Now, she deemed things were getting right.

"You wanna meet that girl." Nikhil said in a deeply serious voice. His face became calm and eyes became deep. "It's you."

She remained silent as she heard him say her name. Her ears had longed to hear that.

"You are my only pretty dentist, who despite of any pain, intense tooth ache manage to paste a big, real smile on my face."

She was shocked, surprised, flabbergasted all at a time. Was she happy? Not exactly. She didn't expect this sudden confession. She's in a trance.

"Maybe, I's just thinking. We two would be great together." He said reading her expressions.

"You think?" she said teasingly.

"Yes." He was serious. "You know, Purvi. I never thought I felt something for you."

"But then I realized if I feel something then I feel that, and I cannot think that. Afterall feeling and thinking are different senses."

She was confused, yet again. Nikhil was too good today in confusing her.

"What I mean is" he set out to give an elaboration for he sensed that she did not sense anything. "You're always special for me. And no Dr. Nidhi can take your place. All these days I was with Nidhi. I couldn't stop thinking about you. There was no moment, now I'm shooting a line here, I didn't think of you. I missed you."

She was happy. Yes, happy now. But she won't tell him so soon. He continued..

"So, what do you think?" He asked raising his brow.

"About what?" she asked

"About us." He replied

She smiled then blushed and hit playfully in his arm.

"You know what Purvi, When I see you everything changes. All of a sudden, it's not gravity that holds me on the planet, but you. Nothing else matters. I could do anything, be anything for you."

"You know what, Nikhil. I hate Twilight. Next time you talk of that nasty thing and you forget you've a friend recently turned girlfriend named Purvi."

He knew very well how to annoy the hell out of her. He was too good in annoying her. He needed to do that to end the awkward silence prevalent between them.

He held his ears and apologized," Sorry, Yaar. So you agree? Won't mind being together forever?"

Purvi just smiled and then turned to her house amd started walking leaving behind a confused Nikhil.

"Hey Purvi, answer ny question."

"Shush, Idiot. Don't shout. And as for your answer. Umm You very well know who my father is. So when you think of proposing me think of the ways to propose my papa as well."

She left pecking a brief kiss on his cheek and murmured turning to him.

"Maybe We two would be great together." She smiled" I missed you all these days Nik. See you tomorrow."

She left. Nikhil was too taken aback by her gesture to come to his senses. When he came back to his senses, he was terrified. Terrified by the mere thought of Purvi's Dad. Things are going to be pretty tough, he thought. They always are. But he was happy that he had his pretty dentist, Purvi by his side now forever and ever.

A/N- So, finally confessed. The scene is inspired from another story. So credits go to that author, not me. No offense to Twilight fans. Things are gonna be interesting and a great twist is awaiting you all in the next chapter.

Please Review.

Thank You.
