Author's Pov-

(After a month)

Meera was going into Krsh's room after doing all the work as everybody left after dinner. She was tired and wanted to rest, but as she went inside she was pinned to the now closed door. Breathing heavily she came face to face with Krsh who didn't even wait for a second joining their lips and taking her into ecstasy. He was devouring her like his most favorite food which she was and Meera also let him be and enjoyed their passionate kiss.

With Krsh being a teacher, she also learnt how to kiss and now was sucking his upper lips who was licking her lower lips to make her open her mouth and when she did he didn't waste a second to enter his tongue in her mouth and absorb her like a cherished flavor. He didn't have any motive to stop but had to do that too with a little grunt when she patted his shoulders to let her breathe.

He didn't stop there but moved down from kissing her chin to her slender neck giving kisses like drawing a pattern on her neck. He reached just above her collarbone because he knows that is her sweet spot and began nibbling on that spot, bite there, suck and licked it and repeated the process with his hands doing their own work on her waist, giving her feather touches, until she became a moaning mess with her hands pulling his hair to come more closer which he did and there became a dark red mark which he was so proud of.

He stopped to see her and was again mesmerized. She had her eyes closed, breathing heavily and he was happy seeing her become so comfortable like this. He pinched her waist lightly to bring her back to the world and she opened her eyes slowly and still wondered how just a mere touch or kiss from him made her so hypnotize that she forgets everything around her.

As realization dawned upon her, her cheeks became red like cherry to show how shy she had become and he was smirking seeing her like this. One moment she is a wild girl and another a soft girl who is not even aware of such things.

Krsh laughed a little at this and kissed her forehead and said, "Meera, love you are really wild you know that. Don't become such a shy girl now. I have seen your actions in bed. Last night, you forgot how you were telling me to go on and on and on and....." When he said the last line coming closer to her such that their lips touched, he could see how crimson she had become, like she would burst out any moment. She put her hands on his mouth to stop him from saying further and pushed him a little back.

But who was she kidding, the man in front of her could beat real humans and she was just pushing him a little. "Mo-move, I ha-have to take a bath.", she said and it seemed that she was still coming to have normal breath from her high but Krsh wasn't having done yet so he said, "Then let's take it together. We will save water also and... we will have one round also."

Meera shook her head no when he pleaded with her and she was also stubborn so how could she agree, "You have so much money and still want to save water. I know you Krsh and this time I am not coming in your trap.", saying this she pushed him which this time was successful as he was staring at her with mouth open and went away and here Krsh just ruffled his hair saying, "She will be the death of me."

While taking bath Meera realized how much has changed in a week from thinking that they are never going to be the same as before to now being more romantic and understanding than before. She still remembered when Krsh told her about that day when she lost consciousness and he was scared and didn't sleep and ate until she was awake, which she was the next day.

From then Krsh never left her side but she could see some changes in him like he would not joke around her anymore, or tease her or steal kisses from her and was silent, talked when it was really necessary. She was also having her own demons to conquer but since she had Krsh she felt more than braver and now her priority was him and making him come back to normal.

It has been three days since they talked and she was taking a glass of water for him to their room which he denied but she was pestering him so he throwed the glass which broke in front of her feet and shouted, "I said no, why don't you understand this petty thing, Meera." and she had tears in her eyes listening to his loud voice.

So without saying anything she bent to pick up the broken pieces like collecting her broken pieces of heart and went away. When the night came she slept in without talking but was disturbed when she heard voices which were coming from Krsh's side. Putting the bedside lamp on she saw him drenched in sweat and breathing heavily. She quickly realized he was having a nightmare.

She tried to wake him up by patting his cheek and after several tries she was successful. Opening his eyes he saw the one face which just by looking can erase all his problems. He hugged her tightly burying his face in her neck to make him so sane that he can at least make out the surroundings. And she just let him do what he wants.

It took him sometime but he calmed down and Meera just like always was waiting for him again to know what is troubling him, what is the reason behind these nightmares and Krsh knew that he couldn't go away this time. He always wanted to speak with her but every time he felt short of words and today, don't know how but he shouted at her the first time. He never wanted to but the incidents of the past days and on top of that the work was overloaded he just burst out on her and when she was picking the glass pieces, he saw her tears and it felt like someone was ripping his heart with a knife.

He was feeling anger on himself that's why he went away and thought to apologize for not only shouting at her but also for hurting her and not talking to her nowadays. When he felt her hands going through his hairs his eyes filled with tears and said, "I'm sorry, Meera. I am so sorry for shouting at you and hurting you."

"Shh, I forgave you Krsh, I can see how exhausted you are nowadays but please let me help you release this tension. Tell me what happened, I can see the change in your behavior. Not only me, other family members can also see it. Ma was also worried if everything was alright between us. Though I have assured her, I know you are not feeling okay. Tell me love, what is troubling you?"

Listening to this, Krsh hugged her more and giving a peck on her neck, he looked into her eyes, "Meera, you are right. Everything is not okay, I am not okay. I have been losing deals for the last few days because I can't concentrate on anything except Arjun. I think because of me coming first, he is not alive. I know his father abused him but somewhere I am the reason behind his father being like this. If I was not so good, maybe he would be alive right now. I feel suffocated that someone has died because of me. His father says right, I killed him. In my nightmares I hear him screaming and crying to be saved from his father. He screams my name so that I can save him. I don't know what to do, I don't know who to share. It is so pathetic that I am living the best life with my love in my arms and he is not even alive.

When I saw you collapsed, my heartbeat literally stopped for a moment thinking, I have lost you like him. You don't know but I felt like someone was choking me and I was struggling to even breathe. I am scared that because of me and my behavior you will also go away. Trust me Meera, the world can take everything from me, my office, my money, but the one thing I can't live without is my family and you. You are my heartbeat Meera, because of you I am this person. Save me Meera, save me from these nightmares and these depressing thoughts."

Saying this he had tears around his eyes and Meera just rubbed her thumb on his cheeks to say it is okay to cry. And that was it, the sign he was looking for and he cried and cried until he felt his mind getting light and a burden getting lifted up from his heart. And Meera was being the supported partner, listening to him she also cried.

Both of them were sharing their worst part to each other, her insecurities, his guilt and their thoughts of losing each other. The scene was witnessed by the moon and stars in the sky who couldn't hold themselves seeing them like this and the heavy rain was proof of it.

After about half an hour, they both stopped and Meera held Krsh's face in her soft hands and rubbing her thumb around her cheeks said, "Krsh, I am so proud of you for the person you are. You haven't even met Arjun and you feel this deeply shows how great of human being you are and how big your heart is. I am sure that if Arjun was here, he would not want you to be so depressed like this. Whatever happened was because of his father's thinking. It is sad but he will get the deserving punishment. I am with you, your family is with you. Rather than thinking about what you could have done, think about what could be done right now. Focus on your present, love. I am sure there are many things waiting for you, for us. And you will always find me behind you in every phase of your life."

"Not behind me, baby but beside me, holding your hands or better your waist." He replied just after she finished and both chuckled listening to him.

After that night, Krsh planned a week-long vacation in London, where they spend their most beautiful moments and also become one in every term, in soul, in body, in every sense. But sadly the trip was cut short to four days since an urgent meeting was scheduled in Hyderabad and Krsh has to go there for a week.

Honestly, for both of them the week was a torture, because after spending the alluring days and ravishing night together, there hearts were now longing for one another. Nonetheless, the week also ended and Krsh was back home yesterday and she was more than happy. They didn't even sleep a blink last night spending cozy moments, teasing each other.
