Fated

Chapter 15

Ragini gently opened her eyes, as she woke up from her sleep. 

A soft smile broke on her lips, feeling Sanskar hugging her from behind. 

So much had changed in the past one week since they confessed their feelings to each other. 

She gently touched his arm that was wrapped around her, enjoying the feel of being held in his arms, for a bit, before she made to get up. But as she did, she felt Sanskar tighten his grip around her waist.

"You are awake," she said softly

"You know I end up waking up when you do," he said in a sleepy tone, his voice muffled against her neck

Ragini smiled a bit. "If you are up, then let go of me. I need to get up now," she told him gently

"Ummmm," Sanskar said complaining. "I need to sleep some more. Don't go just yet," he said even as he pulled her into himself.

"Sanskar, it is already late. You know that Bhabhi has been coming up to wake us up every day these past few days. Everyone has been teasing me," she complained

"So! You can bear some teasing for me," Sanskar said nuzzling her neck, still resisting getting up.

"Sanskar! You don't know all the things I have been hearing," Ragini complained, blushing as she tried to loosen his grip on her.

"I am not letting you go so soon. I need to get some sleep. I haven't had much of it last night," he said

"Why did you need to stay up so late," Ragini told him

Sanskar lifted his head slightly hearing his. He brought his lips closer to her ear, whispering, "Do I need to remind you why WE were up late, last night"

Ragini blushed. "But I am ready to get up on time, unlike you," she tried to counter

"That is because it is your fault," Sanskar said huskily

"How is it my fault?" she asked confused

Sanskar moved her hair off her neck, before placing a gentle kiss along it. "When the wife is so bloody gorgeous, the husband cannot be expected to control himself"

"Sanskar," Ragini chided him softly, blushing still.

"Ummmm," Sanskar said, his way of asking her, 'what?'

"I really need to get up. Bhabhi will come and knock the door any minute," she said softly

"Between your internship and housework, I am barely getting any time with you," Sanskar complained, as he ran his hand along her arm

Ragini turned her face a bit, to look at him. "You know that if I could, I would want to be in your arms for eternity. Never leave them," she said looking at him

Sanskar kissed his shoulder gently, letting her know that he understood. "I think I need to just whisk you away somewhere far, where there is no one else. Just us," he told her softly

"Then why don't you?" Ragini told him

"I will the moment your internship is done," he said, planting soft kisses along her shoulder, "And then I am not letting you leave the bedroom"

"When you whisk me away, then you can," she told him with a smile, before pecking him on the cheeks and rushing out of his arms and out of the bed.

Sanskar leapt a bit to catch the edge of the sheet that she had wrapped around herself

"Sanskar!" Ragini complained even as she blushed

"Here I am making plans to whisk you away on a romantic getaway and you are giving me just a peck the cheek," Sanskar complained, "Not happening!"
