Tina's POV :
The way he kiss me, I have never felt that way before. I have already been in a relationship before and had kissed Pranay before many times but he never made me felt like this, the way Ranvijay made me feel. His touch seems to send shivers down my spine and his single touch is enough to drive me crazy.
The way he cares for me, the way he respects my decisions, the way he gives me my space, I don't know what it is among all of these or everything about him that makes me fall for him even more.
Its just the second day of our marriage and it feels like I know him for so long. I was ready to give myself to him in our first night but he stopped for God knows what? That was driving me crazy but what he told me after that was enough to make my heart calm. He was giving me my time, time to fall for him.
But now, the way he is kissing me is making me insane, my mind is completely blank as I am compelled by some spell. I let him take over our kiss, even if that would leave me breathless.
His tongue fought for entrance inside my mouth that I gladly gave him. He traced my cavern with his tongue like his own territory making me want more of those kisses. I haven't drunk even a single shot but I feel so dizzy of his kisses.
He bit my lower lip and I moaned in pleasure, as his hands pulled me closer to him supporting me through the waist as I was already loosing the balance of my body because of his kisses.
His kisses went down from my mouth to my jaw and down to my neck and almost on my collarbone.
His hands traced my entire body from my back to my stomach and legs. He started to raise up his hands until it reached my thighs. My hands were on his chest fisting his shirt and pulling him close to me. I am being intoxicated by his kisses alone. He was caressing my thighs in a way that made me arch my back and moan his name, because if the pleasure building in me.
He was starting to loose his control also when we realised that my phone was ringing on the back seat of the car for God knows how long. Now the sound of the phone started to irritate him and he frowned at it before picking it up and handing it to me.
"Why are you not picking the call, of whoever this devil is? Now the sound of me is irritating me." he said while pouting, making me want to laugh at his childish behaviour.
"You already now why am I not picking up this call. It's from Pranay and I don't want to talk to him, besides he is really a devil incarnate for disturbing us".
"Hahaha... he kept me sane otherwise I didn't know what we could have ended up in here." there was a sense of teasing in his tone and I could not do anything but just blush at that thought of us doing... f*ck!. I needed to keep myself sane.
"Can we please not go home directly? I want to show you one of my favourite spots here. And after that we could have our dinner together there. It has a restaurant in there that I always wanted to go but couldn't ever go.... But only if it is ok with you?"
"I want to go?... Damn it baby! I would love to go and see your favourite spot, and about the dinner, you all the time had food of my choice this time, I would love to know your choice as well." he said as he pulled me again for another quick peck on the lips leaving me startled –"and don't worry about all the things you weren't able to do before I'll tell you now what being a perfect boyfriend means" he chuckled lowly –"now pick up the call of that devil incarnate and let's enjoy seeing him suffering over the news."
"Wait, wait, wait.... he can wait but what is that with perfect boyfriend? Forgotten.. you are my husband, we married yesterday." I was completely shocked by his remark that he wants to be my perfect boyfriend.
He is already my husband why does he want to be a perfect boyfriend when he can be a perfect husband to me, that I think he is already.
"Oh that, I'll answer that later, there is long story behind that. But you don't need to worry and first pick that damn call up, now it's more than irritating."
I decided to pick up the call from Pranay after continuous push from Ranvijay to do so. I was in no mood to talk to him as just reading his name on the caller ID bring out all the anger in me, talking to him calmly and that too with Ranvijay by my side is impossible.
But I still obliged to what he said and picked his call.
"Tina I could explain, the photos they are nothing. It was not–" desperation was evident in his tone.
I cut him in between his sentence and spoke
"I am in the same park where we used to meet, if you want to talk you can come there". I was burning in anger so I just finished what I wanted to say and hung up the call.
Tears started to pooling around my eyes as I shut them forcefully looking at the sunroof to prevent them from falling down.
Ranvijay might have noticed the change in me as the fun he was talking about just vanished. He held my hand and made me face him.
His stare was intense as if piercing my soul, his eyes were like black hole making me sink in them loosing all my mind. He pulled me close to him and buried my face in his chest. I didn't realise that it was his touch or his gesture that made me feel this way but I couldn't control myself more and tears started falling down uncontrollably. I was crying ugly and I know that, I was literally bawling my eyes out but I couldn't bring myself together to stop crying.
Ranvijay looked at me and wiped the tears and talked to me in a very soft tone just like a lullaby
"You can cry today, but it's just gonna be today for that bastard. I hate seeing you cry Tina, seeing you like this pains me. But always remember I am now here for you, I am going to be by your side always. Whatever you feel, whatever is hurting you, you should feel free to tell me everything. Remember this always, we are in this together and together in whatever comes our way. I am here to stay." he was breathless as he was saying all this –"you can tell me everything you are feeling right now, whatever is the reason for you crying like this. And if there is not any reason and you just need to cry you are free to do that also. I am right here to wipe all your tears and comfort you, but just promise me this is the last time you are crying for things like these." Sincerity and authority was laced in his tone but it was so soft.
I cried for God knows how long like that in Ranvijay's arms, he consoled me wiped the tears as he promised and the second he touched my skin to kiss me on my temple all my worries seemed to vanish in an instant.
We drove to my favourite park in the city just opposite to the church, it's so soul soothing over there. Ranvijay was enjoying the city lights from the high plateau of the park when he asked me to come besides him.
He held me by my waist and I just stood there with him next to me both gazing at the quite city lights in front of me. I wanted to ask him about what he meant when he said he would be my perfect boyfriend but due to crying for so long I am completely spent.
When I looked toward Ranvijay I already found him looking at me so affectionately that it made me gulp hard. He pulled me to a near by bench, as if already knowing that I am very much tired.
--------------------------------------
"Tina I wanted to tell you something, but promise me you won't get mad" he looked so serious
"Do I need to? And does it concerns us?" if not she won't pester him to tell her.
"Yes, and depends on how you take it. It is nice for both of us also and bit confusing also."
Tina nodded her head in agreement as in signalling him to continue to speak
"Tina the thing is.... my family and friends won't let me marry someone just in civil wedding, they need a proper wedding, you know the big fat Indian wedding?"
"Ok, so?" that was not a problem with her she was ready for a grand wedding but not just now.
"Look, I want us to date first as a proper couple, and not just tie the knot directly because we are legally married. I want our relationship to have time, to grow stronger, so that we both could know each other better, so that you can know my life better the people important in my life, everything" he looked hesitant to continue to speak, as in he was choosing he words very carefully to not hurt her –"I have seen you in the last two days, and I have seen that how many bad memories you have with that guy. I want to make your relationship period memorable, just like the fairy tail experience you deserve. I want you to forget all the bad memories of your past relationship and make new and happy memories with me."
"I want to take it slow, date you under folds, not letting the public know, then being with you even in front of the media and public, proposing to you and then,... finally the wedding" he was panting as he said all that.
Tina had no words to define how she was feeling, she just felt that how can be she so lucky to have a guy like Ranvijay in her life, who cares for her scars and bad memories so much, who cares for making her dating period worth it. Till she was thinking of how to respond to him he again spoke
"And if you are concerned about our marriage, we are still legally married and would be the same. You asked me for six months before disclosing our marriage now I am asking you to just let the people know that we are engaged, or dating or whatever you like, but don't tell them we are already married because if that happens we may not be able to marry each other ritually. I'll stand by you in whatever you tell them if need be that you are my girlfriend or fiancee doesn't matter. Because somehow Tina I can ignore all the pressure from my family but deep down I also want to marry you ritually, with god's grace."
Tina was flabbergasted by what all he said and she could not get herself together to respond to him in words so she just nodded to him in agreement.
Ranvijay was also relieved by her reaction that he pulled her into a tight embrace.
Both of them hugged each other for few minutes before Tina finally asked him
"I am ready to be your girlfriend, but what's the difference between being your wife and being your girlfriend??" her tone was mocking and teasing at the same time.
"Nothing much though,...." he said as he was thinking hard of the difference, then continued –"we would still kiss, hug each other and other stuff" he raised his brows while smiling wickedly at Tina.
"I'll pick and drop you off home and work, eat breakfast, lunch and dinner with you,... as much as possible... because of our schedules nothing else" he said as he raised his hands in surrender –"we'll go on dates, vacations, places you like or hate, adventures, fun and make a lot of happy and new memories together to remember forever."
"But out of all, I'll have the right to be jealous, possessive and territorial of you that is the best part for me. And I would be always be there for you listening to all your stories, fulfilling all your cravings, handling your tantrums and you goofing around me, listening to your whines everything." He looked pleased with all that he said.
"But above all, the part being territorial as I already have told you this, I would like you to do the same, I want you to own me. I feel jealous when I see you with another guy and I want you to feel the same, you have every right to be jealous and mad at me when I am with another girl. And about the difference between wife and girlfriend is just that we won't be living under the same roof at night... that's all."
Tina was shocked with all that what he said, he likes his girlfriend to be clingy?
"You like your girlfriend to be clingy? Question you your whereabouts every second?" she was teasing him and was also shocked at what she heard.
"I hate it when other girls get clingy to me, that's why I never let anyone come near me but you are different, I love it when you feel jealous but also hate it when you feel insecure of my love for you." he empathised a lot on his last sentence. –"listen I am asking only two things from you in this relationship, the rest I'll do whatever is needed to be done. First, be loyal to me and second, own me in every way you want." he seemed very sincere with his words.
Tina just nodded in agreement and gave him a wide smile before speaking "noted, Mr. Rawat" she tiptoed to reach for his lips and kiss him gently.
She could feel Ranvijay stiffening at his spot as he was confused with what happened and before he could respond to her kisses she broke away.
"Now let's eat RV, I am famished and you promised we'll eat in the restaurant I wanted to go." she pulled him in the direction of the restaurant, acting like a child.
Tina was also shocked with the way she was acting, she was never like this before but with Ranvijay she was different, like a kid throwing tantrums to the person they know would fulfill it.
Ranvijay just chuckled, seemingly happy with their relationship going in the right way. He let Tina pull him to the restaurant she wanted to go, but in midway he remembered why they wee there. So, he walked besides her and placed his hand on her waist and asked her "aren't you going to meet Pranay? You asked him to come here, you were going to talk to him didn't you? he asked very casually.
"Didn't you just said that you hate seeing me with other guys, and besides he is not yet here and I am starving. So now I am in no mood to meet him. and rather than meeting him I would spend my time with you." she didn't like him mentioning Pranay in between there time
Ranvijay apologized to Tina for mentioning Pranay as he realised that the happy atmosphere seconds ago became all gloomy because of him mentioning Pranay. He figured out that Tina didn't want to talk about Pranay so he changed the topic as they both walked inside the restaurant hand in hand.
