BEST FRIENDS

Chapter 75

"Hey Lovebirds!" Sanskar huffs, cursing loudly at his brother.
Swara blushes at the thought of Laksh seeing her and Sanskar like this. Swara and Sanskar were lying on terrace, star gazing, her head comfortable on his head; they were just talking... about anything and everything when she had felt a shiver running through her whole body... which she doubts was more from Sanskar's breath on her forehead than the cold night breeze touching them and teasing them. And then as a nice or demanding boyfriend Sanskar is, he has pulled her in his arms, closing what distance they had between them and cocooning her between his body and his arm.
"Are you okay?" He asked. After giving her an almost heart attack, he was asking her 'is she okay'. How could she be? She was having a cardiac arrest for god sake!!! She just couldn't get her voice leave her throat so instead she nodded and hid her face in his chest, hoping he'd not notice her going all red with just hugging. So what if they were not in standing position and half of her body is over his??? It was just a friendly hug, right???
But it wasn't! At least not for her, going with how her heart beat has skyrocketed!
Just as they were getting comfortable and have started talking again. Just when she was relishing the fact that she affects him as much as he affects her, going with the way how his heart has matched its speed with hers when she has put her head over his chest and snuggled more into him, she heard Laksh's voice. She has done a lot of things and most of them have left her mortified but she has never felt this mortified as she was feeling now!
She and Sanskar got up before anyone could say quickly... all the while cursing Laksh, Swara in her head and Sanskar loudly.

"Woah! No need to make me feel so welcome, bhai!' Laksh teases, his smirk aggravating Sanskar more.
"Why are you disturbing us?" Sanskar asks. "Go spend some time with lado and stop bugging us" Sanskar orders his younger brother, scowling at him.
"I have spent time with my girlfriend bhai. We are not so in love like you guys that we'd forget all about time and surroundings" Laksh teases them further.
"First don't let Lado hear about you both not being so in love and second may be we are forgetting whose video are we going to delete" Sanskar replies haughtily.
"You are no fun!!! Shona, you tell me was something R-rated going on here?" Laksh asks, wiggling his eyebrows.

Laksh has always been like an annoying twin brother for her... they are best friends... partners in crime... do everything together! And him seeing her getting all cozy and lovey-dovey with his brother is not her ideal way to end her week. Moreover he will kill her from his teasing. But hey, we don't always get what we want, do we?

" As if we'd ever tell you!" Sanskar exclaims but Laksh ignores him and keeps looking at Swara.
"It was nothing sort of R-rated!" Swara exclaims loudly to get this fact straight in laksh's mind but his smile tells her that it doesn't matter to him if it was truth or not, he is still going to tease her!
"Did I hear word R-rated???" Swara and Sanskar groans just who they needed right now. Please don't ignore the sarcasm. "Shona, were you doing something with topper??? Something naughty like what you read last week in that novel?"
Shona looks at the entry gate, Ragini is coming near to that gate!!! Only if she has a wand so she could just kill her beloved sister by simple spell Avada Kedavra, because right now no matter how much she loves Ragini she would like to kill her!!!!!!
Swara tries to spells in her mind but nothing happens to Ragini, she is still coming toward them with a teasing smile. Oh, well wishful thinking!!! And she always knew, she is no harry potter so she will have to do with something real. So she thinks something real...."is it possible to hit someone to memory loss without actually hurting them???" Swara wonders in her mind. She would like to do something similar with Sanskar. "Not possible" Her mind answers her and suggests her to keep going until she gets something real... really real!!!

Gathering up all the courage she has, she takes a peek at Sanskar's face. If she wasn't feeling so awkward and embarrassed she would have laughed out loud. His face is changing expressions every now and then as if he doesn't know what look he should have on his face.
Right now his face is calm and composed as if whatever Ragini is saying has not affected him ... not even a bit but his ears have turned red telling her that he is not as un-affected as he would like to show her and then there is twitching of his lips clearly telling her about his urge to laugh. Swara is glad that he is controlling his laugh b'coz hen she would have felt mortified not that she is in any less mortified now!!
