Author's Note
Since it's a valentine week, so, I thought to write an OS on my most favourite couple, RAINA! Hope you all enjoy it! This will be a random one shot. This story will take place two years after all the cadets Pass-out from KMA. I am not sure how this OS turned out. Do let me know whether you guys liked this or not!😘
Rajveer-Naina - My Secret Valentine
It has been two years since all of them successfully graduated from KMA and now are posted in different places as lieutenants. Yes, it has been two years since they all met each other. How badly they all miss each other that the words cannot even describe that.
Lieutenant Naina Singh Ahluwalia, an amazing solider, who has been posted to KMA. During the past two years, Naina has became more mature yet more quiet. There hasn't been a single minute when she didn't miss her Rajveer sir. She has fulfilled the promise that she made with Rajveer. She fought for him and proved him innocent along with her brother, Captain Naveen Singh Ahluwalia.
Standing in front of the Wall of Fame, Naina stares at Captain Rajveer's picture with teary eyes. She feels proud of herself that she was once his student. She feels proud to be his protégée. She feels proud that she fell in love with him.
Bringing her right hand up, she salutes his picture with proud.
"Lieutenant Naina Singh Ahluwalia reporting sir!"
says Naina
This is seen by Dr. Shalini and Captain Abhimanyu, who have tears in their eyes. They know what Naina must he going through. It has been two god damm years, yet there hasn't been a single day when Naina smiled with her full heart. They both know how much she misses Captain Rajveer.
Just then, an orderly arrives there.
"Lieutenant Singh, aapke liye phone hai"
he informs
This drags Naina's attention. wiping her tears, she looks towards the orderly.
"Theek hai mein dekh lungi"
replies Naina
As the orderly leaves, Naina goes to take the phone call. Somewhere down, she knows who the person is. She knows it is Huda. Since Huda knows her feelings for Rajveer, he has stopped bothering her. But since it's a valentine day today, he always wishes her like a good friend. Reaching there, Naina picks up the phone.
"Hello"
speaks Naina with a heavy voice
There is complete silence on the other side for few seconds. The only thing that's heard is, a loud moan from the other end.
"1600 hours sharp at Barista Cafe "
says the other person, more like a whisper
A shiver goes through Naina's spine as she hears this voice. No, it cannot be possible. This voice cannot be Rajveer's voice. How can it be? He is dead.
And just before Naina could say another word, the call ends. In utter shock, Naina puts the receiver down. But then, another thought comes to her mind. She thinks maybe it's Huda who is trying to prank her by changing his voice.
Taking a deep breath, Naina returns to her room. Getting inside, she locks the door from inside. Turning her back towards the door, she walks towards the washroom to freshen up when her eyes falls on her bed.
Her heart skips a beat as she finds a box lying on her bed, along with a note. With her increasing heartbeat, Naina picks up the note and opens it.
Her eyes go wide in shock as she reads what it says in the note
Mujhe acha lagega agar tum ye pehan kar aaogi
She immediately opens the box as she gets another surprise on finding a beautiful red saree in that box, with matching earrings. At this point, she is sure that it's rather Huda who sent this because the last time, he is the one who asked her to wear a saree. But one thing she doesn't understand is, last time, he only asked her to wear a saree and this time, he specifically sent her the saree, that too red.
Suddenly, all the scenes that she spent with Rajveer that day, it flashes in front of her and a lone of tear escapes from her eyes. Wiping her tears away, Naina grabs the saree and heads towards the washroom to get ready as she only has two hours left to reach there.
-_-_-_-_-_-
Barista Cafe - 1600 hours
Wearing the same beautiful red saree, Naina enters the cafe and her heartbeat picks up pace as soon as she takes her first step inside. She feels his presence around, her Rajveer sir's presence! Naina shuts her eyes tightly in order to control her emotions.
After few seconds, Naina opens her eyes and heads inside. Just then, a waiter stops her.
"Cadet Naina AH Singh?"
questions the waiter
A shiver goes down her spine as she hears such words from the waiter. How dare he call her that? Only her Rajveer sir has the right to call her by this special name.
Boiling in anger, Naina glares at the waiter.
"The name is Lieutenant Naina Singh Ahluwalia"
replies Naina sternly
The waiter lowers his gaze.
"Sorry ma'am! Please come this way"
says the orderly as he points his index finger towards the stairs that leads towards a terrace.
As Naina looks towards the direction, she looks back towards the waiter in utter shock.
"Uppar?"
questions Naina
"Yes ma'am"
Replies the waiter
Naina smiles at this. Thinking Huda has done this for her, Without saying a word, Naina heads upstairs.
After few seconds, Naina reaches upstairs and her heart skips a beat when suddenly the door shuts loudly from the back. And she is unable to see anything as the whole terrace is dark. This place is less like a terrace and more like a closed room.
And then, suddenly, the lights comes on and the room is filled with red and white heart-shaped balloons. In the middle of the room, Naina sees a beautifully decorated table for two people! She walks around the room and examines everything very carefully.
Five minutes passes by and she finds no one there.
"Huda...Huda kahan hai tu?"
calls out Naina in frustration
In irritation, Naina takes a step forward to exit the room as no one seems to be around. Just then, she trips due to the high heals that she is wearing.
Out of fear of falling, Naina shuts her eyes, thinking she is on the ground, but instead, she is in someone's arms. Still her eyes being closed, Naina makes a tight grip on his shoulders in order to get support.
"Thank god Huda tune mujhe girne se bacha liya"
says Naina
There is silence for few seconds. Naina stays in that position as she feels extremely comfortable in his arms. For the first time, Naina thinks that she likes being in Huda's arms.
"Happy Valentine's day Cadet Naina AH Singh"
wishes the person
And this was it for Naina. Her heartbeat picks up pace and the blood drains out of her face as she hears the voice. She knows who exactly the person is. Surly it's not Huda. She is not able to believe her ears. How can this be possible? How can he be here?
Naina thinks she is dreaming. With her shaking body, Naina opens her eyes, slowly, and the view in front of her causes her eyes to widen out of utter shock and surprise.
There he is, her Rajveer sir, in sky blue shirt, looking all the more handsome , smirking at her. At this moment, Naina has no idea what to do. It's like a dream for her, a beautiful dream.
Smiling at her innocence, Rajveer makes her to stand back up, but doesn't dare to remove his arms from her waist. He checks her out from top to bottom with a satisfactory smile that is playing on his lips. How beautiful she looks in this red saree. Their encounter from that day plays in front of him and he realises how hesitant he was while complementing her.
"Us din sahi kaha tha maine, is khoobsurati ke liye koi revolt toh kya, jaan bhi de sakta hai"
Speaks Rajveer softly
This brings Naina back to reality. What the hell is going on? She doesn't understand.
"Aap?"
questions Naina out of shock
This makes Rajveer to smile. Staring her throughout, he pulls her a bit closer.
"Haan Naina mein, tum sapna nahi dekh rahi! Ye sach hai!"
replies Rajveer
This widens Naina's eyes and she finally realises what exactly is happening. She has so many questions in mind. How should she start?
Looking him straight in the eyes, Naina pushes him off a little
"Aap zinda thay? Or aapne mujhe batana zaroori bhi nahi samjha. How could you sir?"
yells Naina
Tears are visible in her eyes. This causes Rajveer to lower his eyes out of guilt. Tears starts to take place in his eyes as well. He looks back up in Naina's eyes.
"Mein tumhe sab batoonga Naina. Par kya aaj ke din hum inh batoon ko bhula sakte hain? Kya aaj ke din sirf hum apne baare mein baat kar sakte hain?"
questions Rajveer softly
This melts Naina's heart. He is right, at least for today, they should not talk about all those things. Smiling, Naina nods her head in affirmation. This brings a smile on Rajveer's face. Extending his right hand, he wipes her tears away. Naina closes her eyes at this as she feels the warmth of his touch. Rajveer smiles at this.
"Bohut khoobsurat lag rahi ho tum aaj"
he complements her
This makes Naina to open up her eyes and she looks in his eyes straight. Her cheeks starts to get hot red under his intense gaze. He is staring at her the same way as he did when he saw her in the red saree that day.
"Thanks for the complement!"
she repeats her words
This causes Rajveer to halt and in no time, he pulls Naina closer to him, leading her to collide with his chest.
"It's not just a complement Naina!"
he changes his statement
This makes Naina to lower her gaze out of shyness. Rajveer smiles at the affect that his words has on her
"Will you be my valentine?"
Questions Rajveer
This makes Naina to look up in his eyes. With a smile playing on his lips, Naina nods her head in a yes!
"Always!"
replies Naina
Staring her throughout, Rajveer lets go off her and moves a bit away from her. This makes Naina to knit her brows in confusion. Without breaking the eye-contact, Rajveer bends down on his knees and he forwards his right hand in front of her.
"May I have the pleasure?"
requests Rajveer
Smiling, Naina accepts his offer by placing her hand in his. With a jerk, he brings her closer. They both recall the day when he taught her how to dance. Looking in each other's eyes, they smile as they realise that both of them are thinking the same thing.
Preet ki lath mohe aaisi laagi
ho gayi main matwaali
(A/N:Song dedicated to @JoyeetaKarmakar)
They start swaying with the music.
"Ye saree aapne bhejhi thi?"
questions Naina softly
Changing their position, Rajveer spins her around and again with a jerk, he brings her back in his arms.
"Koi shak?"
replies Rajveer
bal bal jaaun apane piya ko
he main jaaun vaari vaari
This makes Naina to smile with her full heart. Her smile suddenly vanishes as she feels his hand on her bare waist, which is due to her saree. Her breathing rate gets heavier at this skin-to-skin touch. She looks intensely in Rajveer's eyes. The smirk on his lips tells Naina that he is aware of what he is doing. Lowering her eyes, Naina doesn't dare to question or object him as if he has full rights on her. Her cheeks turns more red at this
"Mujhe nahi pata tha ke Cadet Naina AH Singh sharmati bhi hai"
says Rajveer smiling
Mohe sudh budh naa rahi tan mann ki
yeh toh jaane duniya saari
bebas aur laachar phiru main
haari main dil haari
haari main dil haari
This causes Naina's heart to skip a beat and she immediately looks up at him.
"Waise aap mujhe Lieutenant Naina Singh bula sakte hain"
replies Naina as she tries to change the topic
Rajveer realises what exactly she is trying to do. She is trying to get away from his teasing by changing the topic but there is no way he will let that happen.
tere naam se jee loon
tere naam se marr jaaun
teri jaan ke sadke mein kuchh aaisa kar jaaun
"Par mere liye tum hamesha MERI Cadet Naina AH Singh hi rahogi"
replies Rajveer, emphasizing on "Meri"
This makes Naina to blush more as she lowers her eyes. This makes Rajveer to laugh a little. This sweet sound of his laughter does amazing things to Naina.
tune kya kar dala marr gayi main mitt gayi main
ho ri ha ri ho gayi main
teri deewani deewani
Looking in each other's eyes, they keep swaying with the music, smiling! Love is visible in both of their eyes. The smile on their lips is a promise that they are giving to each other silently, to love each other forever, no matter what happens!
teri deewani deewani
teri deewani deewani
Suddenly, Rajveer's phone rings which breaks their moment. Irritation takes place on Rajveer's face as he realises that it's his time to go.
"Mujhe jana hoga Naina"
says Rajveer looking at Naina
This brings tears in her eyes and disappointment on her face. In no time, she pulls him in her embrace.
"Mein aapko ab kahin nahi jaane doongi sir"
Cries Naina
Rajveer hugs her back with the same intensity. They stay like this for couple of minutes. Breaking the hug, Rajveer looks at Naina as he cups her cheeks.
"Mein bohut jald wapis aaonga Naina! Or woh bhi hanesha ke liye lekin abhi mujhe jana hoga"
says Rajveer softly
This relaxes Naina a little. She brings her right hand in front of him.
"Promise?"
she questions
Smiling, he puts his hand on top of hers
"Promise!"
replies Rajveer
With that, he takes his steps backwards, still keeping the eye-contact.
"But sir agar kisi ne poocha ke mein kahan gayi thi toh mein kya kahoongi?"
questions Naina
Smiling at her question, staring her throughout, Rajveer stops in his tracks and crosses his arms over his chest.
"Just tell them that you went to meet you secret Valentine!"
replies Rajveer, smiling as he winks at her 😉
This causes her breath to hitch in her throat and her heart skips a beat. With that, she sees him leaving out the door. His eyes conveys the promise that he had made to her just now, that he will return back very soon, that too forever!
Naina got the best Valentine day gift that she will never forget! This gift changed her life. Her life has been filled with happiness all over again as she'll be with the one she loves, that too very soon!
"Happy Valentine's day sir!"
mumbles Naina as her face glows
With that, she exits the room, smiling, blushing! She got a reason to live all over again! And now the wait begins, her wait for him! She will wait for the day when he will return to her! She knows that the day is not too far!
