AVNIEL FF: unconditional love BOOK 2

chapter 35

Neil gave avni a light smile

Neil: it's ok u dont need to be sorry for anything avni....Sahil is your friend.. u can go to dinner/lunch anything you want.. there is nothing to be sorry about.. i was just a little worried for you.. because   your phone was off.. Don't do that to me.. promise me, you will never switch off your phone no matter what

Avni eyes widened at Neil saying that she was able to tell by his word that he wasnt a little worried but very worried

Neil took her hands and clasped it with his and started walking towards the veranda...

once reaching to the veranda avni moved forward and placed both of her hands on to the railing ...Neil moved behind avni and placed his both hands on both sides with avni back was facing towards him.

Avni held her breath when  neil inhaled the sweet scent of her hair and on top of that him standing this close

Neil:I am no more a college guy or only your best frnd avni.. i am a cop now.. i have a lot of enemies.. they all r very dangerous.. i get threats everyday.. while i dont care much about myself but my family??...I cant evn think anything bad happening to them due to my job.. I know mom,dad, bebe.. all support me and r with me but that doesn't lessen my worries about them.. and now, you are my family too.. You always have been.. but now, you are my wife and that's put you on the top if someone want to take revenge on me. Being a wife of an police officer has its risk.. Your safety and well being is my first priority.. I will protect you my whole life.. But when i called u and didnt get through you..., avni you don't know what kinds of thoughts come to my mind.. so you have to be a little responsible because  of me.. and  never ever switch off your phone no matter who told you.....Please promise me.. you will do that for me..

Avni was listening to all this carefully she felt Neil push himself closer to her .. avni's heart started to beat loudly with the closeness and with neil's confession about how much he was worried for her.. avni moved  in his arms and was now facing him.. her face was very close to his..she took a deep breath..

Avni: i never thought  that way.. I can't tell you not to worry about us..bcoz that would be a lie.. you will worry no matter what.. i would do that too.. but I promise, we wont do anything to increase it... I promise you, i will never switch off my phone no matter what..

Neil placed his hands on her waist and  pulled her closer.. he hugged her and held her in his arms.. and after few mins avni placed her hands around him too .. for her it was a little insecurely  but then she relaxed  when neil kissed her hair.. they both closed their eyes and felt each others warmth

Both didn't know how much time had passed.. both drowned  in this peaceful moment.. It felt serene.. It felt home

After few mins avni slowly opened her eyes...she was able to feel the wind blowing softly while able to feel neil soothing heartbeats playing softly in her ears...a warm smiled spread though her face...she didn't want to break this moment this time but she knew she had to as it was quiet late too

Avni: neil its quiet late let's go to sleep she said looking at him while he still had his hand around her waist

Neil:ok he said as he tucked a strand of hair behind her ears.

He moved away from her but his hand moved down to her and intertwined their fingers...avni looked down at their fingers this wasnt new as neil held her hands like this before but something rolled in her stomach thinking what would have it felt like if neil had actually held her hand with love and not friendship wala love...she ignored those thoughts happy that at least she has neil be it as a friend

Been lost in her thoughts she didnt even realise how and when they reached to the bedroom

Neil: I'll be back he said going to the washroom
