"You are thinking to make me happy. It's more than enough for me"

"Is it enough?"

Arnav nodded yes and again nodded no. Khushi smiled.

"You know there are many things that make me happy"

Khushi looked at him not raising a question.

"I will be happy if I'm getting loved... getting kissed... getting hugged..." he said teasingly.

Of course, he said that to tease her as usual. But to his surprise, she held his face in her hands. More to his shock, she touched his lips by hers. As Arnav didn't expect that, he became shocked. He stayed still did nothing. So, did Khushi. She stood, pressing her lips on his. After a while, breaking the kiss, she leaned on his chest embracing him.

Arnav was not sure whether it was really happening. At the same time, he was sure of it as he heard his own heartbeat that was thudding like hell. He raised his hands slowly and cuddled her.

"Arnavji, your heart is rushing fast" Khushi gave a running commentary.

Arnav's lips arched, hearing that.

"You can hear your name if you listen to it deeply," he said looking at her.

Khushi smiled without opening her eyes.

"Khushi..."

"mm?"

"When will I get a chance to listen to your heartbeat?"

Khushi parted her lips. Arnav smiled as he didn't get the answer. She got out of the hug. Arnav didn't stop her. Taking a few steps, she moved back. She spread her hands asking for him to hug her. Arnav stood with bewilderment. He didn't know whether he should hug her or he should listen to her heartbeat. He moved towards her smilingly and made her put her hands down. He didn't accept the chance as he knew the step will turn dangerously. If he listens to her heartbeat, he could not hold himself. He may lose his control. So, he decided to be a gentleman.

"Get me a coffee," he asked.

Khushi stared at him for a while and nodded ok. She walked to the door and about to open it, Arnav clutched her hand.

"Do you think low because I refused?"

Khushi said nothing.

"I can't stop myself if I listen to your heartbeat. I may think of having you in fullest... that's why I refused the chance" he clarified his stance.

"So what if you think of having me?" her question stopped his breath.

"Do you know what is mean by HAVING you?" he asked to confirm whether she knew the meaning.

Khushi smiled inwardly. She was not too innocent not knowing the meaning. Yet, she thought to play with him. she nodded NO controlling her smile.

Arnav became alert. Didn't she say she doesn't know to express LOVE? likewise, what if she doesn't know THIS too?

"Please get me coffee" Arnav walked in without explaining to her the meaning of HAVING.

Khushi left the room smilingly and prepared the coffee smilingly. She brought him coffee and saw him sitting on the recliner. She handed him the coffee and sat in front of him.

"What is mean by HAVING?" she asked with a serious expression.

Arnav stopped sipping the coffee.

"You will get to know about it on our wedding day... in our first night"

"Why not now?"

"I have no problem in explaining about it but you may repent"

"How do you know I will repent?"

Arnav sighed.

"Having means, taking our wedding life to next level"

"What level?

Arnav rolled his eyes.

"I don't know what to say"

"Say what has to..."

"Having means, touching you completely"

"Of course, you touched me when you hugged me..."

Arnav felt embarrassed. He didn't know what to say.

"Explaining it is not right now..."

"Then how will you let me know?"

"I will do it when the right time comes"

"When will the right time come?"

"On our wedding day"

"Why it's on our wedding day? What will happen if you hear my heartbeat now?"

Arnav sighed. He was about to say something; he saw her controlling her smile. He shrank his eyes thoughtfully. Khushi laughed out louder making him drop his jaw.

"What the...kkkk are you making fun out of me?" Arnav kept the coffee cup unfinished.

His facial expression told her what he is up to. She ran towards the door to leave the room giggling. Arnav blocked her way before she reached the door. She rushed in and Arnav chased her. He tried to pull her hand. She shrugged his handoff and ran. Arnav came in front of her, blocking her way. She could not control the speed and pushed him. Before falling on the bed that was behind him, Arnav pulled her along with him. Khushi fell on the bed laughing. Her laughter got stopped when Arnav asked,

"Shall I hear your heartbeat now?" gasping.
