With everything he had, only one thing he wished for, her. Wanting her to be his and he himself wanted to be her's. He always thought that running away wasn't a solution regardless of situation. He did it when it was about taking risk about her. Shi...

It was heart wrenching to look around, it had been a journey, the bedroom held so many memories that it was hard to let go of them. Annika had wished nothing but to return back here soon, maybe after some years. She was definitely going to miss the house, the house where she started to like Shivaay, where everything began.
A part of her never wanted to leave, it was too attached to this place. The bed she sat on was where they cuddled at nights, spending time in each other's embrace. Annika rubbed her eyes, not wanting to stress Shivaay if he enters the room and noticed her. The bag was packed, after some hours, the house would be empty. She got up, setting hee messed hair, sighing, she took a napkin to wipe her face.
The empty wardrobe made her think of the time she first came here, it was dusty and it would be the same after it would be untouched for some many days from now. Annika shook her head, no, she did not want to cry. Not now. To distract herself, she stepped down, into the living room where Shivaay and Omkara were sitting.
"Are you done packing?" Even though Shivaay did not turn around to see her, he knew it was her. He always knew. It was an instinct that he was glad it existed. Omkara, who was sitting next to Shivaay, gave a smile to Annika.
"I am done packing Shivaay" Annika answered, sitting on the arm rest of the sofa. Shibaay kept his phone down, planting a kiss on her cheek the next second. Omkara slowly looked away and got up, excusing himself and going to his room. "See, you made him feel awkward" She muttered, eyes trained on his grinning face.
"Everyone needs to get used to it, why not start from now?"
"You are so shameless, here I am worried about what Om would be feeling and you wanna do romance"
"Come on, he is all good, I know him. And do I need a specific time and date to romance with you?" Shivaay grabbed her by the waist, dragging her into his lap while she released a gasp. "Shivaay, stop it before someone comes"
"Give me one reason why I should" Shivaay asked, his chin resting on her shoulder and his beard teasing her soft skin. "I can give you hundred reasons why you should not do this, right now"
"So, you are saying you are ready to do it when we are alone?"
"Get your head out of gutter Shivaay Singh Oberoi" Annika slightly hit his shoulder as she turned around to give him a glare. "Fine. As you say madam"

"Wait, I am sitting in the window seat" Annika complained as she saw Shivaay was going to go inside to sit in the window seat when she called him out. Seeing a pout on her face, Shivaay sighed, moving out. "You are the world best boyfriend"
Shivaay tilted his head at that. Narrowing his eyes, he couldn't help but smile at her. "And I love you" This caught Annika off guard, she wasn't used to listening to him say I love you to her every now and then, maybe she needed to get used to it.
The way he looked at her every time, she couldn't help but think how much of an effect he had on her. His eyes were enough to ignite a feeling inside her which was so unknown and forgein to her. And then there was his addicting kisses which she couldn't get enough of. Every time Shivaay had kissed her, she had yearned for more, it was inevitable for her to not feel this way.
Shivaay gave her a small grin before cupping her face into both of his hands and kissing her forehead. "You look pretty" He muttered, gaining her attention, she blushed. It wasn't a new thing to hear but still her cheeks turned red.
"You are the most gorgeous women I have ever seen"
"Are you sure about that?" Annika teased him and he rolled his eyes.
"Ofcourse, I wouldn't dare look at other women other than you. I have my eyes on you, always" Shivaay huskily whispered into her ear, his hand wrapping around her waist.
"Bhaiya, keep it PG" Rudra shouted, he had been sitting two seats behind and still he was able to hear them and for him, it was gross. Seeing the two of them all being lovey dovey was normal but then someone or the other had to stop them before they went too far.
"Shut up Rudra" Omkara chuckled from beside him, Rudra scrunched his nose and gave Omkara a glare.
Annika turned her eyes outside, looking at the numerous clouds that filled the blue sky. Shivaay took his phone out, he felt it was the best time to click a picture of her and so he did.
He smiled down looking at the photo, she looked gorgeous. Annika noticed him looking down at his phone with a smile, she frowned. "What is it? What makes you smile so widely?" She did not peek into his phone to see what he was looking at but a part of her wasn't at ease knowing that someone was able to bring a smile on her face.
"Are you jealous Mrs Oberoi?"
"Correction, Annika, just Annika" Shivaay smirked even more wider than before, he loved this women and there was absolutely no part of her which he did not admire, be it the part which was now seemingly jealous or the part which was annoyed by him everytime he pulls her leg.
"Tell me, are you curious to know what I was looking at?" Annika nodded her head, she did not want to be jealous but yet she was. Shivaay chuckled looking at her embarrassed face, she was way too cute. "What makes you so jealous, baby? I love you"
Annika looked down at her hands in disappointment. She wasn't reciprocating his feelings and it hurt her. "Hey, hey, hey. Look at me. There is nothing in this world that I need more than you right now. You being by my side, it's what all I need" Shivaay assured her, forcing her to say I love you, was never his intention. All he wanted was her, nothing else mattered to him anymore.
"I like you a lot Annika"
"I like you too Shivaay" Annika grinned from ear to ear. His fingers entwined with her's, while she rested her head on his shoulder, this was her home. He was her home.
"Get some sleep, babe"

I know this chapter was so very short and I am sorry for that. So, I am finally going to update regularly. I won't stop this time until I am finished with this book and, and, and, I might write some more chapters.
