Hi everyone, I'm Jess.
I'm new to this forum and I've written a one shot on Arjun and Ria.
I hope that you all will like it. Comments are welcomed. It's quite short and I'm not happy with what I have written. Let me know what you all think about it. 😊
OS: Confessions
His eyes kept searching for her amidst the crowd of people.
He scanned every possible place he thought she might be but all his efforts
were futile; she was not here. He was clearly irritated as she was the sole
reason he had come here. He walked towards the bar counter and kept his
half-full glass of champagne over there. He glanced a last time at the entrance
but still the one whom he was waiting for did not come. He saw here and Chotu
flirting with girls but none of them bothered to look at the two idiots. He
removed his phone and searched some application on it that might keep him busy.
Some minutes passed and he was getting bored over there. He
decided to leave but some words made him rethink about his decision.
"Shree, Ria is here."
"Oh yeah Chotu, I thought that she would not have come as
she was busy."
Arjun slightly raised his head and saw Ria entering the hall
which was booked for the New Year party for ETF members. His eyes were glued on
her; she was looking like an angel in that white dress of hers, no, no, No, she
was not looking like an angel, she was herself an angel who entered his life
and changed it for the better. Ria met his gaze and when she saw him looking at
her, her cheeks reddened. Their eye-lock was for only a few seconds as Shree
and Chotu came to greet Ria and Arjun on the other side was discussing some
official matters with Rathod. After a while, Rathod excused himself and went to
talk with some other members of ETF's other branches.
Ria was also nowhere to be seen now, he walked to the
balcony as he was feeling suffocated in the hall. He was pleasantly taken aback
to see Ria leaning against the railing. She was enjoying the cold wind and a
soft smile was visible on her face. She heard some footsteps approaching and
she saw that it was Arjun. He came and stood beside her, she gave him a smile
and he returned her the same. Ria was in love with him, she herself does not
know how and when, all she knows that she is in love with him. However, she did
not know if Arjun had the same feelings for her or he thought of her only as a
colleague and nothing else.
Finally, she broke the ice," Sir, it's so peaceful outside."
Arjun looked at her and returned back to his initial
position and mumbled,"Right,I'd prefer stay here all night than return inside,
it's so noisy over there."
"Same here sir, I prefer tranquility."Ria said and took a
deep breath while fidgeting with the thin material of her dress, Arjun noticed
her nervousness and saw her hesitating to tell him something.
Arjun turned to face her,"Ria, do you want to tell me
something?"
Ria's nervousness only increased," N...no sir, nothing like
that."
"I know you well, you want to tell me something, please tell
it without hesitation." He said and watched her reactions. It was killing him
to not know what she wanted to tell, he didn't let her know that he had fallen
for her too and he was having a hard time in behaving normally around her.
Ria was damn scared, she had been planning to confess but
she just could not do so, and her eyes were already showing her love for him,
it was now or never, "Sir, I wanted to tell that..I don't know how but.." she
paused and he looked at her with questioning eyes, Arjun had a doubt that she
felt the same for him too, if his suspicions were right then he would be the
happiest person on Earth, he noticed a blush on her cheeks.
Arjun placed his hand
on her shoulder and told her to carry on with what she was saying. Ria quickly blurted
out,"I love you." And she shut her eyes and looked down. Arjun took some time
to react and he quickly hugged her tight and whispered,"I love you too," near her
earlobe. Ria was shocked at what he said, she reciprocated the hug and smiled.
Arjun too smiled and they came out of the hug with her face cupped in his
hands.
"Why didn't you tell me before?"
"I was afraid sir," she said totally shy.
"Don't call me sir, it's Arjun for dear ones." He said
as he winked at her and captured her lips in a kiss.
