Meera's pov-
Right now I am sitting in the middle of the stage which has been decorated for mehndi functions, my both arms sprawled out supported by pillows on each side and mehndi artists are showing their creativity on my hands. I remember how yesterday the function was changed to haldi because of hotel workers since they thought it was going to be a haldi function.
Krsh was so angry because of their carelessness and inattentiveness that he threatened he will shut down this mansion-style hotel and will not let any wedding happen thereafter. Raghav bhaiya pushed me towards him to calm his anger because he was literally looking like that bull flaring his nostrils in anger. I held his hands and pulled him to a secluded place. Making him sit and handling him a glass of water I went behind him, caressing his hairs with one hand and another massaging his shoulders. I don't know how many times he must have raked his hands through his hair that it got so messy yet it only increased his handsomeness. I slowly and gently pulled his hair back from his forehead.
He took a deep inhale and then sighed, suddenly turning towards me he wrapped his arms around my waist and nuzzled his face to my belly area. Although it was covered with saree, the cloth of the saree was feeling as if there was nothing between the contacts. My breathing increased all of a sudden, my heart palpitated, butterflies erupted and knees felt weak to even support me standing. But taking a deep breath, I ignored the feelings because right now my priority is Krsh not me and these bodily sensations. I never stopped moving my hands through his hair. It is becoming my favorite activity since his hair is so smooth and silky. I need to ask which shampoo he uses.
I stopped my hands when I felt wetness on my stomach. I literally forced him to look up and my heart cried seeing him. If some stranger would have seen him, he or she would think he might have lost someone or something big like a deal with the way he was crying so badly. I wiped his tears which were continuously falling and shaked my head in no signaling him to not cry. "Why am-am I so-so irresponsible Meera. I-If I-I couldn't even handle some workers on my marriage day ho-how am I going to take responsibility for you?"
"Shh.. no need to think about all this nonsense. You are the best Krsh. Listen to me..." I made him look up to me, keeping both of my palms on his cheeks and continued, "I know they made a mistake and you must punish them, I am not stopping you but not when you are this angry. You should do what is right and now since we cannot change what has been done so let's enjoy this, because marriage only happens once if that is what is on your mind." Kissing his forehead I completed myself.
I gasped when he pulled me and made me sit on his lap, keeping his arms secured around me. He pulled me closer if that was possible such that our breaths were mixing, noses were touching and lips were just apart. A more push and they will touch. Taking my strand of hair in his hand and playing with it, he whispered to me touching his lips to mine, "My love has become so mature. I am so proud of her. And about one marriage, hmm I want to marry every time you come in front of me. Every moment is a moment of celebration with you, love. And you are correct, I did overreact, but anything related to you does not go in the right way, I lose my mind, I lose my grip on reality. But if you are saying that you want to enjoy this function then that's what you will get." He put the strand behind my ear and leaned more to me, making our lips touch and no more action further. "I am mesmerized, Meera, since you just exist and take my heart away with you. My mind is going crazy, I am not able to be without you for more than a second and still there are two whole days until you are mine. I am telling you after you get married, I am not going to give you to anyone, you will stay with me the whole day and...." I looked up when he paused and then he continued "....whole night."
If I was scarlet then, I am maroon now. His words always make me feel like I am the most beautiful girl in the whole world. And instead of kissing me more, he dipped his head in the crook of my neck and inhaled deeply, keeping his lips there with no movement. I tightened my hold on his hairs at the back of his neck and controlled myself to not make any noise. And then a sudden realization hit me, we were out, anybody can see us in this position. Although no one was here since I am sure Krsh made sure of that but it is an open area. I was here to comfort him, not to do this. I tried to push him back and say but my throat became dry and when he started moving his lips I literally was screaming inside.
He didn't stop there and continued making my heartbeat go fast, but before he could reach from my jaw to lips, I heard footsteps of someone and pushed him hard. Realization dawned upon him and I couldn't look straight at his eyes. I turned my back to calm myself and bring my heartbeat to normal. Turning around I was still not able to see him and the footsteps now were clearly heard. Even still it felt like I wanted more and didn't want him to stop there. He has become my source of sanity. My thoughts came to a stop when I saw ma coming towards us with Raghav bhaiya. She was looking tense and bhaiya was chill as usual but was smirking and signaling something looking at Krsh.
Krsh turned towards me and widening his eyes he took the drape of my saree and made it cover my neck. I was confused as to why he did this so before I say something he bend a little and looked straight at my eyes saying, "Even though I would love if you flaunt that you belong to me but it should be in front of other boys not our family so I hid the mark which said you belong to me". Now grinning from ear to ear. I closed my eyes as I was shy, embarrassed that ma would have seen this and slightly angry but I couldn't show it here so not looking at him, I adjusted my saree a little standing behind him and then went to ma.
"Are you both okay?" She asked us first, keeping her palms on my cheeks and looking between me and Krsh. She looked so worried and I told her that everything was fine. She was contemplating so I asked her, "Ma you seem tense, what happened, is there any problem.?"
"I know it is the staff's mistake and Krsh's anger is justified but we cannot also delay the functions. We elders have decided what you children will decide we will go with, after all it is your wedding. So what have you both thought?"
I turned towards Krsh because I also wanted to know even though I am ready to go with the flow. "We will proceed with the haldi function and tomorrow morning will be the mehndi function." He looked in my eyes and said and I closed my eyes and opened them in assurance. Ma smiled and I could see her worry lines go away. She patted my cheeks and hugged both me and Krsh. telling us that we should start getting ready she went away.
Now it was the three of us. Raghav bhaiya was giving a teasing smile looking between me and Krsh and Krsh was glaring at him. I was the only confused one standing and gazing my eyes from Krsh to bhaiya.
"You seemed to have enjoyed your time with Meera very wisely. Better warn us before you do something like that in front of everyone."
"Raghav just shut the hell up and go before I tell everyone that you still drink bournvita and don't start your day without a cup of it." Krsh said, smirking.
"You are such a good best friend." Raghav bhaiya said, gritting his teeth.
I controlled myself not to laugh and looked away from both of them. I saw from the corner of my eyes bhaiya going away and Krsh coming towards me. I jumped slightly at the thought of him continuing where we stopped. And even though I was feeling giddy from inside I calmed myself and said, "We should go get ready. We don't want to be late for our own function."
I tried running from there but before I could, he held my right wrist and pulled me towards him with a jerk such that my back now touched his chest . His one hand was now moving to my stomach and another joining his hands with mine. He snuggled in my neck and taking a breath he said in his hoarse voice, "Nervous are we, love? Although I would love to continue, I know you are right. We should get ready but I should warn you I never leave my work incomplete which I start once. So you should be ready and wait for me to finish it." giving a kiss at the crook of my neck he went away. Leaving me here to bask in his words which left me speechless. My inner self was more excited than him to finish his incomplete work.
Forcing myself to reality I looked around to see if anyone saw us and thankfully no one was there, I made my way to my room where I saw Sakshi and makeup artists waiting for me.
I got ready in the yellow long suit set with mirror work at the bottom and blouse area and the net dupatta which is also adorned with mirror work. I asked the makeup artist if they can do as minimal makeup as they can on my face to which they agreed saying I am naturally beautiful and there I turned red. They got me ready in floral jewelry from top to bottom with with my hair being in a braid and adorned with flowers.
We went downstairs and I gasped seeing the decorations. It was just so beautiful. There were two big bowls inside which the bride and groom were going to sit and in between there was a partition through a net curtain which was only increasing the beauty of the decorations. Sakshi and others made me sit on one side. As I was coming I just saw a glance of Krsh who was already seated in his place looking like the prince himself. It's not like I don't want to look at him but every time I look into his eyes, I drown myself in them, closing the door to reality and entering a world where only he and I exist. I don't understand how every time every outfit he wears, it looks like it is made for him only.
As I reached the stairs of the stage, he came and forwarded his right hand for me to which I gladly took it and he wrapped his fingers around mine as if never wanting to let go. I can feel his gaze on me, "You are looking enthralling, love. Will it be a crime to have you all alone by myself at this time?" He whispered such that no one heard him except me and I gasped inaudibly listening to him and widened my eyes looking at him. He was close to me but since he was helping me to climb nobody paid much attention to it.
I was speechless and still in daze and didn't realize when the function started. Krsh was back to his side. Everyone had so much fun. It didn't at all look like it was our haldi, rather more that it was a kind of holi and everyone got the chance of applying it on one another. In all of this I looked towards my father and brother and started missing my mother, she would have enjoyed all this with me, with us. She would have been running here and there just like baba and Rohan are doing so. I wiped the lone tear from the corner of my eyes without anyone noticing and then looked towards my right side to see Krsh who was already looking at me. I smiled and shaked my head no when he asked me what happened with his eyes. And after knowing my answer he too gave me a smile which made dead butterflies go alive in my belly.
As the function ended I was instructed to be taken in my room. Sakshi and Vishaka helped me with other cousins of mine. They left me alone after making the arrangements for my bath. I waited for them to go so that I could lock the door. I went to the closet which was beside the washroom to take the most comfortable clothes that is pj's and went to take a bath. The girls have literally made an aesthetic and relaxing bathtub for me. There are candles, with rosy scent making the atmosphere calming and along with it magazines to keep me entertained.
It took around one hour for me to because it was so soothing that I didn't want to come out but had to. I was standing near the coffee table to pick up the book I was currently reading when I heard sounds coming from the balcony. I thought to ignore them but when they kept coming I decided to go and check and there was no one but again I heard the sound.
But before seeing I was turned and pushed to the door with a hand on my mouth preventing me from screaming. I looked up to find Krsh standing there with a grin and a look of mischievous child. He removed the hand from my mouth and I gasped loudly, taking all the air which was there. As I prepared to ask him how and why he is here, I felt something wet on my cheeks and I looked at his hands realizing that he was applying haldi on my cheeks.
I automatically looked down when I couldn't handle the intensity of his eyes and the way he was looking at me, "So breathtaking" I heard him whisper. I might have turned pink in warmth. He started leaning closer to me and now our noses were touching, breath mixing. There was little space between our lips and before they could touch, I heard banging on my door. I jerked slightly but Krsh didn't let me move an inch. By voices I recognized that Sakshi and Raghav bhaiya were there but there were others also by the way they were talking.
My focus went back to Krsh and he was just an inch away and before I could process, he joined our lips taking me into a place of ecstasy. He always does this, without doing anything extra, just by being there he makes me feel heaven on earth. I leaned into him more when the banging got louder and he as gentleman welcomed me in his arms by tightening his hold around me by my waist and I in response tugged his hair more from his neck.
As the voices faded, our kiss also came to an end. If it was in his hand we might have continued all night but since I was out of breath he stopped. I wanted to ask him so many questions as to why he is here, how he is here, what if someone catches us but I decided to let them go and just enjoy his presence for the time being. We were looking at each other and then I moved towards him making my right cheek touch his left cheek such that the haldi was also applied to him.
I moved back but my palms remained where they were, that is his shoulders. "I see my wife is getting more bold as the days are passing.", he said with a smirk.
"I am not yet your wife." I pouted and said.
"Soon you will be, my love." He replied pecking my pouted lips.
We both laughed at the end. He took me to the bed and we both were sitting in each other's arms and talked for about two hours because after haldi we are not allowed to see each other until the wedding. I argued with him about this and he paid no heed to it saying now it is getting more difficult to stay away from me.
After he went, I laid back on my bed after cleaning my face once again and smiled looking at the ceiling replaying the moments we spent together up until now and imagined the coming ones and didn't know when sleep engulfed me.
