The entered the area and saw an officiant smiling at them, Ram returned his smile only wider. Ram and Priya stood opposite to each other, holding hands. Priya calmed her nerves which seemed impossible at the moment, but one glance at her husband or gonna be husband again, made her feel peaceful. "So you are Ram Kapoor and Priya-" Ram intervened, "Priya Sood, soon to be Priya Kapoor" the man smiled and continued, "Priya Sood. Good, now that we have that, Marriage is the most natural state of man, and the state in which you will find solid happiness. We are here today to join Ram and Priya in the union of marriage. I believe you have your vows?" Ram nodded. "The most remarkable moment in life is when you meet the person who makes you feel complete. The person who makes the world a beautiful and magical place. The person with whom you share a bond so special that it transcends normal relationships and becomes something so pure and so wonderful, that you can't imagine spending another day of your life without them. And you are that person for me Priya, always and forever. I am grateful that Akki and Shivi loves each other, I am grateful that he put a condition, I am grateful that you agreed. I have never felt so blessed. I am a happy man today only because of you. My love for you only increase every moment. I promise to be the man that I see now in your eyes, today, tomorrow, and for always. I love you truly, madly and deeply." He said as his eyes welled up same as Priya.
The officiant now looked at her, and she took a deep breath. "You are my other half. You are the one that makes me laugh when I'm sad, makes me consider when I want to be rash, and finds me when I am lost. You are my friend, my sun and one true love. I know I will not always be what you want me to be. I might forget to listen or forget to share. I might not always agree. I might be stubborn and I might be wrongheaded, but I will always walk by you, side by side. I will always protect you from harm, to stand with you against your troubles, and look to you when I need protection. I need you and only you, every hour every minute. Every moment I am with you, I forget everyone else, because it is you who I truly see, whereever I look. I struggle with my feelings and words, but when it comes to you, I have never felt so free and alive. You make me a better person. You complete me in every way possible. And I will always love you." She wept lightly as she said.
"And now, Ram Kapoor, do you take Priya Sood to be your wife? Do you promise to love, honour, cherish, and protect her, and holding only unto her forevermore?" Ram gave his signature grin, "I do" said confidently. "Priya Sood, do you take Ram Kapoor to be your husband? Do you promise to love, honour, cherish and protect him and holding only unto him forevermore?" Priya smiled, "I do" she said sweetly. "Now, do you have rings to be exchanged?" he asked, "oh... wait" Ram said pulling out his wedding band and hers from their fingers. "Okayyy... umm... Your wedding ring is a circle—a symbol of love never ending. It is the seal of the vows you have just taken to love each other without end. Now Ram, please place the ring on Priya hand repeating after me" he said, Ram took her ring, slid it on, "As a sign of my love [As a sign of my love] ... That I have chosen you [That I have chosen you] ... Above all else [Above all else] ... With this ring, I thee wed ... [With this ring, I thee wed.]" Ram did, it was now Priya's turn. Priya did the same thing, as she slid his ring in his finger. "And now by the power vested in me, it is my honour and delight to declare you married. You may kiss the bride" Ram smirked, and pulled Priya closer, landing his lips on hers, it felt jittery to him, they have been married for months now, yet, it all feels new. Breaking apart, they thanked the officiant who wished them a happy life. The left the chapel collecting their marriage certificate, "wooohooo I am married to Priya Kapoor!!!!" yelled Ram in happiness, Priya laughed, "Nooo... I married Ram Kapoor" she screamed. Giggling all the way back to their room.
It was a clear tension between them, Priya looked into his honest, blue eyes, full of unspoken love and desire, that reciprocated hers. Ram leaned forwards closing the door behind them, tilted her neck. With each kiss, the pressure increased, started of slow and feathery ended up being sloppy, wet and deep, with a little bite here and there making her take his name. His name never sounded sexier but when she says it, it makes him want more. Taking her into a kiss, that was filled with raw passion, he lifted her up making her legs wrap around him. Kissing vigorously, Priya decided to tease him a little, how she loved seeing him get all frustrated, it made him look cute and hot at the same time. She tugged his hair as he kissed her collarbone, her sweet spot. She then made him look at her, it wasn't their first time, yet it felt special, new and the feeling gave him butterflies. She got down; she pulled him to her and kissed him taking the lead as her hands roamed inside his shirt. He wasn't surprised seeing her bold, Priya may look shy and innocent out to the world, but when they are alone, it is a whole new side, the one that only he can witness, she is a tigress. "you know, we should play never have I ever, except let's not drink, we strip" she said, he agreed with a sly smile, at this point, he would do anything, literally anything she asks him to do. They sat down on the bed, "you go first" he said, she closed eyes pretending to think making Ram chuckle, "okay... Never have I ever made out in public" he smirked, removing his jacket. "Remember that day when Bri-Adi caught us, Ooohh, during our honeymoon too, ahh, fun memories" he remembered, she blushed removing her coat, "your chance" Ram thought for a while, "Okay, Never have I ever had a crush on my teacher" he said, "Hmm... high school English sir, he was very young, and he had this British accent which made him more attractive." She said smiling removing her shoes, Ram stared at her, "Hmm... I never had, all I could remember was having male teachers or old female teachers." He pouted; she pulled his cheek in a cute way laughing. "Okay, never have I ever kissed a boy" before she could remover any of her clothing, he removed his shoes shocking her, "Mr. Kapoor?" she called him, "I have kissed Adi" he said, she raised her eyebrows, "Arrey... arrey, don't be shocked, it was purely accidental, I swear." He said scratching his neck, "How? Tell me" she asked curiously, "Well, back in college, before vedika. Me and Adi thought we will exercise everyday to impress the girls." Priya laughed hearing that, "Toh, ek din, hum kuch kar rahe the aur, I lost balance, falling on him and umm... you know, it happened so fast that we accidently touched, it didn't last more than few milliseconds. After which we made a pact forget it and never speak of it again. Please do not tell Adi I told you, he will kill me" he said sheepishly, "You know if it wasn't for that pact, it could have been a start of a love story. And that'd be cool" she chuckled, he rolled his eyes. "Okay, never have I ever bunked my class" she shook her head in a no, "Kya?! Padhaakoo" he said removing his shirt. Priya bit her lip, if only he knew how hard it was for her to resist the urge to kiss him all over. "Never have I ever stalked my ex on social media?" she said, he sighed, removing his pant, Priya heart beats paced faster and faster. "you haven't?" he asked, "never, I was never bothered to because I wasn't obsessed with him" she said taunting him. "hmm, khud question puuchke taunt maaro" he complained. "Never Have I ever gone skinny dipping" he asked, smiling widely. He removed his socks, now sitting only in his boxers, while Priya took a see breath, removing her dress, it was the last outer clothing she wore. As she removed her dress, his eyes never left her, he was checking her out, she has always felt her body is not model like slim and toned, it never was a matter for him, for him, she was the sexiest woman ever, and he loved her body for just the way it is. Sitting in their inner wear, looking at each other seductively, they leaned in closer, kissing passionately, each fighting to take the lead, his hands roamed all over her curves while hers pulled his hair, he broke apart, looking at her, "Are we continuing the game?" he asked, she let out a frustrated sigh, "just shut up and kiss me" she said, pulling him. He loved making her feel divine, gently pushing her down, he hovered on her, kissing and worshipping, not leaving a part. Not being able to tolerate his sweet fiery torture, she rolled over with all her might, sitting on top of him, she kissed his forehead, then his two cheeks, his earlobe, his chin, he assumed she would kiss him on the lips now, but she smirked moving down, he groaned. Only his Priya could make him excite him, stir up his feelings and emotions, only she has the right and power to make him dizzy with her pleasing torture. Pulling her up, he once again captured her lips into a fiery kiss. They were awake night long with the energy that drove them to make love only to sleep early in the morning.
Priya got up first, with a pounding pain on her head. She opened her eyes slowly, to see her husband sleeping peacefully. He had wrapped her with his body, his arms holding her protectively, their legs entangled, and only the duvet covering them. She tried remembering what had happened the previous night. As she squirmed around, Ram grunted, "Do you remember what we did last night? I remember bits and pieces." She said waking him up. "Priya yaar, go to sleep. We'll think about that later" he said patting her, again enveloping her in a hug. "Ram it is almost lunch time! Get up" she said shaking him. He reluctantly left her, rubbing his eyes, whined. Priya saw something lying down beside the bed, she looked at it and the memories of last night came flooding inside, "We got married? Again?" she asked, "Oh yeah, I remember. I still remember our vows and I also took a recording of it, so that we'd never forget" he said. "You were not drunk?" she asked, "Not as much as you, but I am surprised you remember this time". "we won money, too right?" she asked, "yeah, the luck was on your side yesterday, I think it was 300k or something" he said, "whoa, wow. I know to play roulette." She said proudly, "As I said you were lucky baby, you were just saying numbers that were our birthdays and anniversaries" she pouted a bit and then smiled again, "Whatever, we won and can you please not show this to anyone, we get teased so much already this is just ghee to the fire" she said lying back, as her head ached. "Achha, why? I love it when your face turns all red like tomato" he said laughing, she rolled her eyes, throwing his pillow at him. "haww gorgeous, did you just throw a pillow at me?" he said, she just giggled, He came on tope of her, "you want another round?" he asked slyly, "you know what I actually want?" she asked him, "What?" he asked smugly, "food" she replied innocently, he smiled at her. He sat upright, "You made me work an appetite, I need food for more" she continued, her tone dropped octaves. "Such a tease you are" he said with a side smile. "Okat get ready, we'll go have some lunch and come back" he said wearing his clothes. Priya hesitated to get up, she wasn't able to. "Kya hua? Don't tell me you are shy to come out the bed, come on Priya, I have seen you so many times now." Priya shook her head, "nahi woh baath nahi hai. I am not shy. I guess drinking so much and our all-nighter has made me a bit sore." Ram felt bad, "Nahi, you don't be sorry, I don't regret a bit. Let's just order in and stay here" she assured him. He smiled and agreed. He swiftly lifted her up and took her to the bathroom. "Why don't we take nice hot bath and then have food?" she giggled, "Sounds like a plan" she said.
"Ram?" she called him, who was now dozing off in the bath tub. "Yeah gorgeous" he asked sleepily. "After this, it's home na. I miss all of them. And I have so much work pending, you must have too. And the amount we have spent, these past few months continuously. I loved this, all of this. But..." he cut her, "I know, I am kind of home sick too. We'll put a rest to our travelling for some time" she smiled, kissing his cheek. "now, come on, get me off this and let's have our lunch" she said, he got up, and she stretched her arms, so that he'd lift her to the bed. He chuckled at how cute she looked, covering her with a towel and lifted her till the bed. They had lunch together after which they cuddled and watched a movie. The next day they flew back home. Their family members were elated seeing them, especially them being happier than ever. "Priya, mei bahut kush hoon ki, tum kush ho. This is all I wanted, for my girls to live a strong and happy life." Meera said hugging Priya and Ram joined too. "Bhai, ab to bas potha-pothi chahiye..." she joked, Ram and Priya turned red hearing that, "maa" Priya scolded, "Haan Meera ji, even I want that. How cute would that be?" she joined Meera in teasing them, soon Sandy, Sara and the gang to joined. "Whoa... Calm down you guys. Let us breathe, we have just come, and you are making such demands..." Ram spoke. "Okay... let them come in. You must be famished, I'll ask Tarun to set the table, after such a long time, we are having dinner together" Nandini exclaimed, going to the dinning area with the Soods and gang joining them, leaving Priya and Ram alone at the hall room. "there's no place like home" Ram said holding her hand, bringing it up to kiss it. She gave him a warm smile as he did, lost in each other's eyes, "Ahaam, you guys had plenty of time on the trip to do all these, now please spare your time for us" teased Bri. Ram rolled his eyes while Priya chuckled. "Chaliye Mr. Kapoor, our family is waiting for us" she said walking toward the dinning room. "As you say Mrs. Kapoor" he tagged along putting his arm around her shoulder joining the happy family.
