Evening, Sabherwal House
Sabherwals were busy in arrangements, Devi came to check on Shaurya, he was in his room decked up in a 3p Royal blue Suit, a jacket, a waistcoat, a trouser and a black shirt perfectly contrasting with his coat, applying his favourite musky vanilla cologne, Stood in front of the mirror, lost in his own thoughts...
*Knock knock*
Badi maa interupted his thoughts
"Shagun ke baare m soch rhe ho..." Shaurya heaved a sigh and was about to say-
"Vo Shagun ki ring kaha gyi Shaurya?? Khi kho gyi kya? Usi vajah se pareshan ho??" Ring was missing from his finger
(A/N : ik ring ke baare m bhool gye honge aap sb :") refer chapter 2)
"Badi maa aap-"
He settles her on sofa and kneel down on the floor, holding her hands
"Shagun meri life ka ek bohot important hissa thi... Pr ab vo jaa chuki h... Mai kb tk uski yaadon ke sahare jeeta rahunga badi maa..."
"Us ek haadse ki vjh se maine apni zindagi rok di thi.. mai janta hu aap sb bhi mere liye pareshan the.. pr ab aapka purana Shaurya vapas aa chuka h"
"I've moved on"

Flashback
Yesterday evening, setting up his wardrobe Shaurya found few belongings of Shagun..., her letters for him, cards, photos, gifts and most importantly that Ring in his ring finger, a sad smile crept his face
"Tumhari in chizo ko khud se alag kbhi nhi kiya mne... shayd isliye itne saalo tk ek hi jagah atka rha aur tumhe bhi khud se bandhkr rakha..."
"Tumhe bhi mujhe is trh dekhkar takleef hoti hogi na...
Mai janta hu Shagun tum mujhe humesha khush dekhna chahti thi
Aaj dekho mai khush hu...
Jo tumhare sath hua use badal to nhi skta pr pray krunga tum jaha bhi ho khush ho"
Shaurya took off the ring, put all her belongings and ring in a packet and immersed it in the holy river near the temple, it is the beginning of new chapter of his life and he didn't wanted his past to affect his present and future in any way
With a heavy heart he bid final farewell to Shagun.

"Ye to bohot achi baat h Shaurya"
"Aap khush hai na badi maa?"
She nodded, blesses him and leaves the room
4 saal se to Shaurya se aajtk koi Shagun ko bhoolne ko bolta tha to uska gussa...
Aaj achanak ye sb kese?? Kahi koi aur ladki to-

Swagatam Hotel, Colaba, Mumbai
Chain of hotels run by Sabherwals
Tej Sabherwal : Chairman
Alok Sabherwal : MD
(A/N : Refer Chapter 0 : Hello everyone)
Party was organised at Swagatam Hotel, situated in one of the posh areas of Mumbai
Entrance was beautifully decorated with dainty white lights, Entry passage was filled with paparazzis, Guests have started arriving.
Shaurya was busy welcoming and posing with his friends, but his eyes were waiting for the only one... who hasn't even wished him yet...
—
And there arrives her... stepping down from the Taxi in a red split slit sleeveless, cowl neck mini dress, golden suede stilletos and sling, contrasting with her dress, winged eyeliner, glittery eyeshadow, red lip tint, minimalistic makeup and straight open hairs.
*Uff*
She looked different, she looked hot.
Shaurya was literally ogling at her with half mouth opened, she moves towards the entrance, paps greeted her, she found Shaurya already staring at her, without blinking
"Khade khade sapno m khona achi aadat nhi hoti Mr Sabherwal" Anokhi whispered without coming in notice with paps
Shaurya composed himself
"Kisike birthday pr use wish na Krna bhi achi aadat nhi hoti Miss Bhalla" he snapped back with disappointment in his voice
Anokhi pressed her lips to not to pass a smile but she enjoyed his grumpiness
They posed together paps clicked their pictures, Anokhi headed towards the hall not before secretly winking at Shaurya
"Now what does that mean??
Ek to mujhe abhi tk wish nhi kiya aur ab aankh maar rhi h!!" He thought

Anokhi
Banquet hall had elegant decor, plush furnishing, embroidered walls, sublime mirrored pillars, inviting ambience and meteor lights illuminating the whole space, people were having snacks and drinks, swaying on DJ, all were having there time, I too got indulge in talking to everyone, heard many b town gossips, played a few games...
Shaurya was the centre of attraction today so he was always circled by one or another, though he was looking around for me everytime, but bad luck we didn't got time...
After cake cutting session, champagne opened, vibes gone wild, everyone was tipsy by now, DJ switched to Punjabi beats Shaurya shook his legs on Bhangra, discarded his coat, folded sleeves, messy hairs
*Uff*
Well his moves were so intimidating, he looked too hot i must admit
Everyone joined him
He glanced at me, i was already staring at him, our eyes locked, without breaking the eye contact i went on the dance floor, held his hand, his eyes widened, as we were in the middle of everyone, i slid a chit in his hand and left the hall...
-
Shaurya
I cornered myself from the crowd to read what's written on that chit
"Reach my place! Do NOT drive, Car is waiting outside with driver"
I felt different kinda sensations reading that note, I wasn't wrong, she did planned something for me, my heart was jumping with excitement, i informed Kanchan that I'm going for some important work but she got a bigger brain than me
"Koi baat nhi Shaurya bhaiya aap aaram se apna important kaam krke aaiye mai yaha sb smbhal lungi" emphasising on each n every word she smirked
I left the hall Ujjwal was waiting outside... I can drive the car! come on.., I'm not that drunk... but apne birthday ke din apni hi girlfriend se maar khata acha to nhi lagunga... So I sat on the passenger seat, he dropped me at her place.
Entered her flat, door was unlocked, i locked it from inside, it was dark, but some light was coming from her room, i went inside, my heart fluttered watching the preparations... Numerous scented candles were lit in her room, rose petals spread everywhere, on my right, "Happy Birthday Shaurya" written balloons were attached to the wall... on my left, a cake, two glasses of red wine one empty, other half filled were kept on the sofa table... Was she drinking?... where is she?
I was about to turn, a black cloth covered my eyes...
"Sushhhh, don't open it" Anokhi whispered kissing my ears from the back, shivers ran down my spine
"Anokhi... ye kya h"
She didn't responded for 2 mins
"Ok, remove the blindfold" after removing, i found Anokhi kneeling down in front of me, with a box in her hand
"Anokh-"
"Shaurya..." her intoxicating voice... I didn't knew my name could sound so sweet...
"Let me complete first... day before yesterday..., you said..., those dark clouds have taken away all the stars and moon from you... Today on your birthday i want to give your moon back..."
"You know what, from Day 1 you've been my star, guided me to the right path whenever i was lost, lightened me whenever my charm felt dull... You've helped this rock to glow brighter... So today on your birthday, this glowing rock want to be your moon...
"Peeping through those dark clouds, i want to be that little ray of brightness in your life"
"I want to be the moon to my star...
I know i can't undo whatever has happened in your past but i want to be that little happiness of your life, which you can cherish forever..."
Anokhi opened the box
"Will you accept me as your moon?"
Box had a silver chain with crescent moon pendant... Shaurya's eyes became glistened, a tear film appeared, her every word got feeded in his heart... Anokhi was still kneeling waiting for him to respond
"Will you?"
He nodded and took the box from her hand she stood up but stumbled a little Shaurya held her
"Pehnaogi nhi?"
She smiled and gestured him to sit on the sofa and made him wear the chain... kissed on the back of his neck, he stood up, she back hugged him
"Happy birthday Shaurya"
He held her hand tuned around, hugged her properly
"Thank you for coming into my life"
"I love you"
"I love you more Anokhi"
They remain still for few minutes... Feeling each other's heart beats, engulfing their loved one....
-
"Anokhi..."
"Mai kuch mangu tumse to tum dogi?..."
"Farmakar to dekhiye janab... Aapke pyaar m chand taare tod lae isse mushkil kya hi hoga..." Anokhi said in playful tone
Shaurya passes a soft chuckle, cupping her face in his palms
"Tum"
"Hmm?" Anokhi asks him to continue
"Tum mujhe aajse tum kehkar bulaogi?
Apnapan sa lagta h..."
Imagine a kid requesting for a toy... ditto same reactions he had on his face... The only difference was he was craving for affinity, love, care...
"Tumhare liye kuch bhi Shaurya"
Anokhi cupped his face, and gave him what exactly he wanted...
—
They sat on the sofa Shaurya cut the cake, they fed each other..., Anokhi leaned on his left side, his arms encircled her... Shaurya pointed at the wine glass and asked
"Were you drinking?"
"Mmh hmm" she nodded in positive
"I thought I'll need it today"
He didn't understood and frowned at her
She looked in his eyes
"Shaurya... I want to make new memories with you..."
"New memories?" He had no idea what she's talking about
She moved her face closer to his the smell of her cologne mixed with red wine was already driving him insane and she put her lips on his... Now there was no chance that he could control himself... He kissed her back, encircling her waist in a tight hold...
It started slow... Soon passion took over both of them, Shaurya's hands started working on her back... Anokhi broke the kiss stood from the sofa, leaving him frustrated but he catches her in time...
"You know how much I'm controlling myself since I've seen you today..."
Shaurya said in his husky voice leaving her in goosebumps
"Who told you to control?" She smirked
Looking in her intoxicating eyes, he tightened his hold, she started moving backwards, till her back is against the edge of the table. At the same time his feet too have come to a halt. They've reached the end. They can't move any further.
Shaurya, burrowed in the cave between her chin and her collarbone consumed by desire because of the fragrance of her body and red wine adding to it.
His tongue draws the taste of her glowing skin. He feels its softness on his lips.
Her eyes are half-closed. The touch of his tongue has sent butterflies in her stomach.
Anokhi moans softly. Her face is upturned and her nails dig into his neck.
He nibbles at her skin and she trembles with pleasure at the sweet pain.
She shifts her weight on one leg and slides up the edge of the table.
Perched on the table and now positioned well, she pulls him between her legs
and locks them behind him, tightly clutching him to herself laying bare her desire for him.
Shaurya holds her tightly, then holding her face in his palms he begins kissing her face all over. He avoids her lips which makes her flame up with desire. He moves down her chin, she throws her head back moaning. Shaurya stops and looks at her. He wants her to get desperate.
She looks at him, wondering why he has stopped. He smiles.
She moves forward and kisses his Adam's apple. Her hands on his back tracing his body to his broad shoulders and then into his thick hair. She runs her fingers through his hair, stoking his control. He grows restless but she takes her own sweet time then she kisses him on his lips.
Shaurya melts in the warmth of her lips. He cannot bear it any more. He pulls her a little roughly into him even as they kiss passionately. His hands now slide on her back, unzipping her dress, she gasped at his move, he caressed her bare back, feeling her, turning her on further. Anokhi lets out a moan. He smiles to himself for having aroused her like this.
She pulls her head back and looks at him. Her lips were swollen from their kissing and she's breathing heavily. They stare into each other's eyes.
"This is my first time Shaurya" she says softly
He was shocked and surprised by her statement..., how come a bold and beautiful girl like her hasn't been in a physical relationship yet!
He moved his hands back and started zipping her dress back, she stops him holding his hand
"What are you doing?"
She was confused, was she not supposed to say this?, he doesn't want her? did she hurted him in any way?, but she only told him the truth, did he didn't like that she's still a virgin? Does he need someone experienced?... All these thoughts came to hault when Shaurya broke his silence
"Are you ready for this?"
"Offcourse I am" She snapped back
"Anokhi are you sure?"
"More than anything Shaurya..." She was frustrated
"I've been planning for this since yesterday" she bit her lips on what she just confessed
Shaurya smirked
"So you've been planning for this han?"
Emphasising more on 'planning' he moved his thumb to the corner of her lips, her cheeks turned red, she felt embarassed
"Shut up Shaurya" she hit him on his chest and descend from the table
"Anokhi... still i want you to be sure if you're okay doing this for the first time... with me..."
He ended in low voice
But this pinched her heart
"What do you mean 'with me'!!?... if not you then whom? I love you and offcourse i want this with you! I want my first time with you! Not only first i want my every time with you!"
"But i think you don't-..."
"It's okay..."
She was enraged and in tears she felt disheartened, started moving towards the door
Shaurya mentally slapped himself for uttering this stupid question! He has obviously hurt her..., he pulled her, and pinned to the wall
"For the first time someone is trusting me with her virginity..."
His pupil dilated voice softened
"Anokhi... I don't know... But... this feeling is special..."
"I love you too and i do want you! I've never craved for someone like I'm craving for you right now!!"
His eyes filled with desire as well as concern for her
"For a girl, her first time is very special i just wanted to be sure-"
"Will you be my first and forever, Shaurya?"
His heart swelled with pure emotions..., she chose him..., the amount of trust she has on him... His best Gift life has surprised him with...
He pulled her closer and slammed his lips on hers, pressing her against him tightly, she gasped..., breaking the kiss he picks her up and carries to the bed, staring in her eyes, she nodded...
