Ananya came out of the washroom and to her utter shock she found that the door of her room was wide open and the lights were off. Suddenly she felt a hand wrapping her from behind and she was going to scream when a hand covered her mouth. Out of shock, Ananya started to protest and tried hard to save herself but in vain as the person was too strong for her. But as soon as her shocked state came to an end; she recognised the person as this touch was very familiar to her. As she stopped resisting, the person slowly released her but at the next moment again held her by her waist.
Ananya freed herself from his grip; kind of forcefully and then turned on lights.
An:(a bit angry tone) Aakash aap yaha? Ye koi tarika hota hai kya? I was damn scared. Aap abhi tak gaye nehi? And even if you didn't that's ok but you should have made me aware right? Aur aapne darwaza aise khula kiu chor diya? Koi andar aagaya toh?
Ak:(smiled sadly) Chalo meri rulebook. Iss bahane hi sahi par tumne mujhse baat toh ki. Varna toh aajkal tum mere taraf thik se dekhti bhi nehi. Aisa lagta hai jaise hum strangers hai aur main tumhara kuch nehi lagta.
Ananya moved a bit away and turned against him and started unpacking her bag. She had just landed in jaipur and it was an emergency landing because of the rough weather. Fortunately or unfortunately it was again a tourist season and the hotel in which INDE AIR tried to take reservations couldn't provide with necessary rooms for the crew amd therefore Ananya and her co pilot Karan along with few air hostesses were transferred to another resort and it was the same one in which Aakash was staying; as he too had flown to Jaipur that day.Jaipur; this place held a special place in her heart;actually of both of them as many beautiful memories were part of the time when they stayed in Jaipur months ago. Their first dinner together where was
unexpressed romance and realisation of mutual attraction. Many has changed since then. As it had already been revealed of Aakash's being a DIB agent and after the revelation, Aakash had to go through a rough time to convince Ananya about the circumstances and then confessing to her that he loved her; he had always loved her but never got the chance to express his feelings as he was bound to go on with his mission and he couldn't just risk her life. After the confession Ananya took her own time to think over her life and then agreed to his proposal and confessed that she too loved him.
Aakash had met Ananya's family and they happily gave agreement to their relationship as her family really liked Aakash a lot. For Shefali she just loved the thought that her and Megha's beloved Aakash bhaiya was soon going to be her jiju and she didn't miss a single chance to tease Ananya that after all her prediction came true and they were actually in love. Shefali,who herself was going through a heartbreak after Kunal betrayed her; she again started believing that true love indeed existed and again she found new hope. As everyone was ready and Aakash himself didn't want to delay any further as according to him it was already late; so their marriage date was fixed and both Ananya and Aakash expressed that they wanted a very simple wedding. So it was decided that only the family members and Megha and her mother will be present and the wedding will take place in Ananya's home; that to very simply.
Everyone in INDE was aware of the fact that Aakash and Ananya were about to get married soon and many were not actually very happy with it. Aakash's best friend Natasha was one of them and she tried to create scenes a lot of time. Aakash initially thought to invite her to their wedding but later rejected the idea as Natasha sometimes tried to insult Ananya intentionally and Aakash was enraged as he never permitted anyone to mess with her lady love; not even Natasha. It was true that she was a very special friend and she meant a lot but not more than Ananya. No one could hold the importance which Ananya had in his life and so he decided that he would handle any situation that goes against Ananya. He understood that things were very complicated now as Mahima had warned him earlier;that he should clear his feelings with Natasha and that her activities towards him was not just being friendly but something more than that. He didn't pay much heed to it back then; as he never thought that it would be needed cause he never knew that he will fall in love so madly in his near future. But now that it happened he needed to make Natasha understand that there was a person in his life now who held the first place for him always. But Natasha being Natasha went on with her activities and when Aakash warned her strictly not to insult Ananya again; she chose another path. Whenever Ananya was with Aakash;she would come and abruptly hug him which created an embarrassing situation. She behaved like Ananya didn't even exist there and she would just stick with him. Ananya tried hard not to get these things hurt her but her patience had barrier which broke with time. Mostly on the day when Natasha suddenly kissed Aakash on his cheek that too in front of everyone. Ananya knew that Aakash too didn't like it but she had enough of it and no need to mention she was showing off her anger on Aakash and started avoiding him and barely talked to him. Aakash was smart enough to understand what went wrong and he was hurt badly as merely the thought of Ananya avoiding him pained his heart like hell. Ananya tried a lot to make her understand that she is his friend and as a friend she could hug him-no big deal. But it turned into a big deal when she understood that Natasha was trying to take her place in his life and thought herself to be more than a friend to him.
Aakash tried to make Ananya understand but she wasn't ready to listen to him and did a very good job of avoiding him. So Aakash found himself very lucky that he got the opportunity to persuade her and solve the problem.
He came to Ananya's room to talk with her and Ananya couldn't say no to him as air hostess Shruti had come to talk with her and as she was present, so Ananya didn't want to create a scene. But as soon as she left, she told Aakash to leave as she had to take a bath and that she will talk to him later. Aakash silently agreed but as Ananya went inside the washroom, he stayed inside instead of leaving.
****************
As Ananya continued organising her clothes; Aakash came near and hugged her from behind.
An:(angry tone) Aakash leave. I am not feeling up to this now.
Saying she freed herself with a jerk and went towards the wardrobe.
Ak:(in a painful voice) Ananya, I know ki tum mujhse bohot naraz ho. And it is justified. But please don't avoid me like this. It kills me when you avoid me. I will set everything right. I promise. And this time forever. I'll make sure that these problems don't emerge any further. Please just talk to me once. Taras gaya hu main tumse baat karne ke liye. Pata nehi kitne dino se maine tumhe thik se dekha bhi nehi. Please...
Aakash pleaded in a painful,broken voice. Ananya spoke up without turning towards him
An:(cold tone) Main aapse naraz nehi hu Aakash.(gave a sigh) I need some time...to think over...to sort things out.
Ak:(sad tone) To think over what Ananya? Are you talking about breaking up?(went to her and held her in his arms) Tumhe jitna waqt chahiye lelo. Tumhe gussa nikaalna hai..mujhpar nikalo, chillao mujhpar, maaro mujhe par mujhe chorke mat jao please.(hugged Ananya tightly and spoke up in a choked voice as tears brimmed in his eyes) I need only you Ananya. I can't live without you. Tumhare bina mera koi nehi hai. Please don't leave me.
Ananya patted on his back to calm him down and then breaking the hug she cupped his face
An:(soft voice) Aakash please don't cry. Main Aapko chorke kahi nehi jaungi I promise. I also need you Aakash.
Ak:(holding her hands) I promise I'll make things clear to Natasha and this will be the last time. If she understands,that's good otherwise our friendship is over. I won't let her ruin our relationship any further.
An:(crying) I don't have any problem with her Aakash. I just got scared that she is coming between us and she will take my place in your life.
Ak:(cupped her face) No one can ever replace you in my life and no one can come between us. You are the only one I love and it can never change Ananya. Your love is my life and you are my Ananya. I promise from now on I won't allow anyone to create any hurdle between us. Just be by my side cause I am nothing without you. You make me feel complete Ananya. I love you.
An: I love you too Aakash. And I am sorry...
Ak:(put a finger on her lips) I hate it when you apologise. You are not meant to say sorry. You are just meant to say that you love me.
Ananya smiled and hugged him tightly. Aakash too hugged her back and when they broke the hug he looked at her soft pink lips
Ak:(in a husky voice) You know I was longing to taste them.
Ananya blushed heavily and then slightly gave a peck on his lips
An:(whispered) I too waited for this moment
desperately.
Aakash reacted spontaneously on her slight move and claimed her lips in a deep passionate kiss.
