Knot by Destiny

Drunken Beauty

Aarohi comes back to her room after having dinner and closed the door. She walked to the cupboard and took out a nightdress and went into the bathroom. After changing herself in the nightdress she comes out and lays on the bed with her mobile. She clicked on his number and calls him. After a few rings, he picked up the call before connecting video.

"I thought you will not call me." He said wearing his watch.

"I promised you so why won’t I. How are you?" She asked rolling on the bed.

"I am good. What about you?" He asked taking out his shoes and started wearing them.

"I am also fine. What are you doing?" She asked again.

"Getting ready for the office. You know what I am feeling right now?" He asked moving down in the living hall and went to the dining table.

"What?" She asked getting shy.

"I wish you are here with me. I am really missing you. You know from the past 1.5 years I mostly stayed here in New York. I hardly used to come there when I got free from here. I woke up early then go to the gym and then get ready for the office. Someday I went to the office without having breakfast or someday I forgot to take lunch or dinner because no one is here to care for me. Bhabhi used to call me and scold me for being careless but I also want someone who takes care of me. I always felt so lonely in this big mansion. I want you here so that I can lay my head in your lap and your soft fingers in my hair will remove my all tension. I want to see your face when I return home all tired so that your single smile will remove my all tiredness. I want to cuddle you all night like you are my koala bear L'amour." He said in a heavy voice.

Her heart stopped beating for a moment hearing his words. Her cheeks were red and her heart fell for him more.

"Kabir.. I.. I am missing you. I wish to there with you." She said in a blushing tone and he smiled a little hearing her soothing words.

"L'amour, you are making it hard for me. I just want to marry you right now. I am missing you so much." He groaned and she blushed.

“Stop making me feels shy.” She mutters and he laughed loudly.

“I don’t have to do anything to make you blush. You just blush by my one look. And trust me, babe, you look beautiful when you blush.” He winked at her and she blushed and covered her eyes with freehand.

"I want to sleep." She removed her hand from her eyes and looked at him.

"Okay, then go to sleep. I have to go the work. Good night." He said getting up from the chair.

"Good night. Come soon" She said closing her eyes and the mobile fell from her hand while he cut the call from the other side.

He checked time and sighs in disbelief and left for the office. His schedule was tight and he doesn't get time for himself. He wants her to stop him from working nonstop.

A Few Days Later

Aaru got out of the car and walked inside the college. It's their farewell night. She went to the backyard and welcome by juniors.

"Oh my God!!! Aaru, you are looking breathtaking." Tanya exclaimed.

"Thank you. My sister-in-law Navya gifted it." Aaru said with a smile.

They went to the bar area and Tanya and others started drinking while she was having a soft drink. Everyone was enjoying the party expects Aaru. She was missing him. She was missing his naughty talks, his touch, and his warmth. She saw small glasses and picked up one. She tasted it but felt weird and continued to drink.

Anaya comes to her and widens her eyes seeing her. Her head was on the bar desk and empty glasses of tequila sunrises. She went near her and started counting the glasses.

“What happened?” Deven asked tapping her shoulder thus she flinched back a little.

“She drank 12 glasses of tequila.” She pointed at the glasses.

“But it’s not much alcoholic. She will be fine.” He shrugged his shoulder.

“But it’s dangerous for a non-alcoholic person. Aaru is non-alcoholic and it’s her first time.” She gasped covering her mouth.

“Fuckk….” he mutters underneath and scratched his nape.

“Kabirrrrrrrr….. kabirrrrrrr….”

Aaru got up and looked at them weirdly. She lifted her finger and pointed at them.

“Yo… you.. you a.. re so… man.. many…” She mumbled stumbling on her feet and Anaya held her before she landed on the ground.

“Aaru, let’s go. We are going back home.” Anaya said trying to hold her.

“Isss.. mmmy Ka..bbbir come bbb…ack home?” She asked sweetly with puppy eyes.

“No, he is still not back.”Anaya replied thus she pushed her.

“The… then I dd.. do… nooott.t.t waaan..t to g… go back…” She squealed loudly and ran from there.

“Damn… how we are going to handle her?” Anaya clutched her and he held her hand.

“Relax, we will find a way. Take her mobile. Kabir might call her.” He said pointing at her mobile and she grabbed it instantly.

On the other hand

Kabir walked out of the jet and sat inside the car. He took out his mobile and dials her number. He wants to give her a surprise but before that, he wants to know about her destination.

"Hello brother-in-law, Anaya is speaking," Anaya said.

"Anaya, what are you doing with Aarohi's mobile, and where is she?" He asked worriedly.

"Brother-in-law, we are at the college. It's our farewell night." She bites her lips and looked at Deven.

"Okay, but where is she?" He asked suspiciously.

"Brother-in-law... she is.. kind off... drunk." She said glancing at drunken Aaru who was hard to handle by Tanya and Shiv.

"Shittt... how did this happened?" He asked shockingly.

"We don't know." She said with a sigh.

"Very good. I am coming there till then keep eye on her. You guys already did good work but now keep eyes on her." Kabir said sarcastically.

"Okay, brother-in-law. Don't worry." She said and cut the call.

He asked the driver to drive fast. After a half-hour, he reached her college and got out of the car. He saw Anaya and Deven were waiting for him.

"Where is she?" He asked looking around for her.

"Come with us," Anaya said leading him inside the college.

They reached the backyard and saw Shiv, Tanya, and Abhi were standing alone.

"Guys, where is Aaru?" Anaya asked worriedly.

"There," Shiv said pointing at the dance floor.

Everyone averted gaze on the dance floor and widens their eyes in shock.

“What did she drink?” He asked observing her crazy moves.

“12 glasses of a tequila sunrise,” Abhi said shaking his head.

“Fuckk… 12 glasses are too high for a non-drinker. Can’t you take care of her?” He snapped at them and they just looked down.

He looked at her and gulped as she danced sexily. Already she was looking hot in a pink line short dress and the way she was moving her frame making her sexy. She walked down from the dance floor and went to her friends. She dragged Tanya and Anaya along with her and started dancing. Kabir couldn't move his gaze from her for a second. His shy, timid Aarohi was dancing without any tension or without feeling shy.

He walked to her and she climbed on the table while he adored her without blinking his eyes. She jumped down from the table and took the beer bottle and started drinking and dancing crazily.

Kabir snatched the bottle from her hand and picked up her in his arms making her starlet for a moment but she garlands hands around his neck.

"Kabirrrrr.... My my my... hiccup... my.. my hiccup... Kabirrrr..." She sang his name looking at his face.

He sat inside the car and asked the driver to drive his penthouse. He just can't take her to her house or else her parents will get shocked seeing their innocent daughter who is not looking innocent at now.

"Y.. you come..." She said moving her hand on his face and he smiled.

"Yes, I come." He said kissing her hand making her blush even in a drunken condition.

"I... I... I m.. I missed you so... much..." She said kissing his cheeks and hugged him tightly.

"I missed you too, L'amour." He said caressing her cheek.

"L.. la.. l.. wh.. why do you call me Lamour. What does it mean?" She asked tapping her finger on her chin and he chuckles shaking his head.

"I will tell you it's meaning later when you will get sober." He said caressing her cheek and she placed her head on his chest feeling his heartbeat.

The driver stopped the car near a big building and he comes out of the car with her in his arms. He walked inside the elevator and pressed the floor number. After a few minutes, they reached his floor and he comes out of the elevator and walked to the sofa, and placed her there. The elevator door directly opens in his house so he locked the elevator and put on the new password.

"L'amour, stop." He said running behind her as she was running in the hall.

"No.. no.. no.. let's dance." She said turning on the music player and started dancing like a kid.

He held her from the waist and lifted her thus she shrieked by his action. He dropped her on the sofa and she sat there with a pout.

"Don't you dare to move from here? Put finger on your lips." He said with a fake stern.

She showed her tongue to him and put finger on lips while he chuckled inwardly. He went to the kitchen and made lemonade for her. He comes out of the kitchen and saw her sitting in the same position.

"Drink this." He said forwarding her lemonade.

She took the glass from his hand and drank in one breathe but later felt nausea.

"No... don't puke here. Come with me." He said holding her hand and takes her inside the bathroom.

She throws out whatever she had while he was caressing her back slowly. Once she did they come out of the bathroom and he gave water to her which she drank in one breath.

"Feeling better?" He asked thus she nodded her head.

"You are best and I missed you so so so so much." She said stretching her arms and he laughed.

"I missed you too. Now sleep. I will come back to change clothes." He said pecking her forehead.

"Liar. If you had missed me then you will call me today. I waited for your call." She pouted sadly and looked away from him.

He sits on the bed and pulled her in his lap but she struggled in his arms and he tightens his grip around her waist.

"Love, I didn't call you because I was on the jet so I couldn't call you. I wanted to surprise you but instead, I got a huge surprise from you." He kissed her nose and she hugged him tightly.

After some time, he went inside the bathroom with taking his nightclothes, and then come back but his eyes popped out in the socket seeing her in only bra and panty while her dress was lying somewhere in the room. He instantly covered his eyes and she walked up to him.

"Kabir..." She called him trying to remove his hand from his eyes.

"God!!!! Aarohi, cover yourself with a quilt." He said with a groan while she made a confused face.

"But I am not feeling cold. That dress is hurting me." She said pouting still holding his hand tightly.

She wasn't cold but he surely needs a cold shower right at this moment. He turns toward the closet and pulled out his black shirt and wrapped it around her frame.

"Hawwww... I don't want to wear your shirt." She said trying to open the button but he held her hand tightly and took her to bed.

"Shut up and sleep." He said laying her on the bed and covered her with the quilt.

He was about to go from there but she held his hand and pulled him.

"Kabir, sleep with me." She said with half-open eyes.

"No, you sleep. I am there on the couch." He said taking his hand back and caressed her cheek.

"You don't love me that's why you are not sleeping beside me." She said sitting on the bed and started hiccupping with faked tears which he faces palmed himself.

He jumped beside her and pulled her closer thus she instantly put her head on his chest.

"Now sleep L'amour." He said caressing her hair.

"You didn't tell me the meaning, Lamour." She asked looking at him.

"I will tell you its meaning on our first night." He replied tugging random hair behind the ear.

"On the first night, you will also do that with me. Just like that boy does with that girl. I read in a book. You will also remove (blushes) my clo..."

She couldn't complete her sentence as he put his palm on her lips and she bites his palm hardly thus he winched in pain pulling it back.

"What the?" He asked shockingly.

"Why did you stop me? Let me speak." She said banging her hand on his chest while he held her nape and put her head on his chest.

"Sleep for now. We will talk about it later." He said caressing her hair.

"I love you, Kabir." She said closing her eyes and kept mumbling something until sleep overtook her sense.

He smiled hearing her words and shakes his head. Although they never confessed their love to each other it's so shooting to hear those words. He knew she won't remember anything the next morning but she won't regret staying in his arms but he isn’t a man who took advantage of the situation. His mother didn’t teach him to take advantage of any woman.

"I love you more." He said pecking her forehead and got out of the bed.

He covered her with the blanket and kissed her both cheeks. He pulled out a blanket from the closet and lay on the couch. He looked at her and closed his eyes falling into sleep.
