Naina's P.O.V
A fresh feeling hovered over me and I blinked away my hazinesss.
The warmth of my husband sticking to me, getting me started for the day.
Oh!!!
My mind was awake by now! We're in Mauritius.!! Hehehehe! Yess for our next location.
I kept looking here and there thinking of what all adventures my husband had in mind for us. Whatever they were I was ready for each and every single one of them.
I felt fresh. I got hugging the duvet close to chest hiding my cleavage.
So many feelings came over me. A new place, new moments sending warm feelings of gushiness over me. So many things to do and yet I loose count of all of them when I'm with him. I feel like there's more. Being with him is always more.
More of love. More of care. More of us. I'm ready to give all of me to him. I'm ready and every nerve of my body feels so energized and ready for him to drain that energy.
And when it's done, we just have the energy to look at each other and keep looking.
But more than that, my mind is ready and excited. It's out of my control this time. Doing its own thing of telling me to tell adi that I am so so ready for him.
A feeling that these next few days are going to be great and wonderful. Togetherness.
He sleeps peacefully and I look at him. Peace is what we deserve. For everything we've been through and everything that we will go through, peace is a reward for us going through those hardships and making it together.
Until next time it'll be something else.
My stomach grumbled and I looked at adi snoring. They were calming. Soft snores of tiredness. From our heated session.
But my stomach grumbling, not pleasant!
"Adi, wake up. I'm hungry" I shook his arm slightly.
"Hmm" he hummed and turned his face the other direction and went back to sleep.
I leaned on top of his face and slowly his left cheek, the side visible to me, which shined under the small rays from the windows.
His eyelashes looked brown and the skin of his eyelids was golden and wrinkled. His cheeks and jaw relaxed and then they twitched!
His body was really tired! Usually when he sleeps some part of him is always active and ready, on alert. He's never fully relaxed. But right now he is.
And he looks beautiful.
My stomach grumbled again and I shook him hard this time.
"Hmm what?" His muffled, sleepy voice made me shake his harder.
"I'm hungryyy!!!" I say shaking his arm which has no effect on him. He just laid there. His arm falling of the bed.
What is wrong with him??
I huffed and looked away. Suddenly an idea popped up in my head.
I flipped him around so that he was on his back and, his arms sprawled out and climbed on top of him and smashed my lips on his.
His eyes jolted open wide at the attack and as if he trained himself mentally for this type, he grabbed and pulled me beneath him, hovering on me.
"What a way to wake up you husband! I'm a need another one as a reward for training you" he winked and leaned in to kiss me again.
Yeah I'm learning all this from him.!
My stomach grumbled for the third time which didn't go missed by him.
"Are you hungry?" He asked grinning and I glared at him.
My stomach will eat itself if it grumbles again.
"Yup, getting food right now" he smiled getting off of me.
The sheets fell off, giving a view of his manly parts which I would very soon devour.
I fell back on the bed until I felt the bed dip again.
"Not beofre this" adi said and kissed me quickly beofre going in the washroom making me giggle at his antics.
But I love him.
~~~~~~~~~~
We sat in our car, heading towards our destination.
excited but at the same time hella tired. The flight was long and tiring and we're gonna sleep as soon as we reach the hotel.
I let the window down seeking in the fresh air that hit my face making me smile. The clean road, the trees and the locality was amazing. The air was passing me like music, but a lot calmer and it was good to have something that relaxed my soul and made it happy.
"you like it?" adi asked beside me.
I nodded looking outside letting it all settle in me, silencing the storm I had going on in my mind. Drowning all my worries and thoughts and let nature do its thing.
Do all the talking I didnt feel like doing.
"just wait what I have in mind for the both of us" he voice boomed excitedly.
My gaze went to him and I narrowred my eyes and my dirty mind.
"not that! well yes but later but first its some real nature adevnture" he said rubbing his hands together. His voice that of a child.
I smiled looking back out at the scene passing us. All the trees, moving past us but still there. Made me relate to our life, gone through so much and still here, standing. Strong.
"we can go out for a drive too you know! just me and you." that was very tempting and I almost said yes before he proposed something else.
"oh! and you know they even have this cute camping couples settup that come for honeymoons and we can even book that. I heard its great but what do you say?!!!" his voice was so loud and shrill.
He's acting like the excited wife now. Why is he acting like me?? I'm like this for even the smallest things.
But this is us enjoying life. Unfiltered.
The car soon gave us a veiw of our place of stay which was not a hotel.
"adi uh this is not a hotel. We're not staying in a hotel?" i asked as my eyes roamed on a big house which had a nameplate which came in our veiw after we pulled in the parking.
'Roseburg villa'
Huh! okay.
A villa. That's exciting and.....interesting. Thats a change.
A smile was on my face seeing the surroundings. Greenery and lavish.
A fountain in between and small pebbles until they make a path to walk on and statues of I dont know what but all of them a addition to its extravagant beauty.
I went in closer and my eyes fell on whats inside the fountain making me squeal.
"Oh! look theres fish. A lot of them" I said as adi came next to me smiling.
"do you know why they're here?" he asked and I shook my head.
"for eating" he said raising his eyebrows.
"WHAT???!!!!"
what the fuck???!!!!! eating?!! fuck it Im a vegetarian.
I looked at him, wide eyed, mouth hung open big enoughfor atleast one fish to dive into and take a tour of my stomach.
"yeah" he said nodding his head up and down.
no! you cant be serious. I'm gonna puke. Shit really. Right here. In this fountain and theyre all gonna die.
"godd!!! hahahah look at you face dudee oh my gawdddd!!!"
adi was rolling on the floor clutching his belly hard and a fist over his mouth.
yeah!
I kept staring at him to tell me its a joke and his expressions gave it away. Like he was actually going to eat them raw, right out of the water.
Well! he just woke up my mind.
"god you....actualllyy......beleived that...hahah" he said laughing hard his nose turned red.
I kept staring at him, eyebrows raised as a small smile came up on my lips.
OK he got me good. I admit.
He kept laughing for 10 minutes straight and i shook my head.
Stupid teenage men. Ugh!.
I looked at him sprawled on the floor all red and childish waiting for him to get up and go inside. But he kept laughing, rolling here and there carefree, getting sand on his black shirt and somewhere making me smile all the way in.
what's so funny huh! the fact that i fell for it, yeah sure!
its kinda funny thougha! but you can laugh in your mind about it.
"Im going in"
I yelled and began walking. He bought up my innocence of beleving it so easily.
"ok ok sorry wait I'm coming godd!!" he got up dusting himself and caught up with me.
"you have to agree it was good" he said nudging me with his elbow. I rolled my eyes.
yeah! it was.
"but more than that I loved the way your eyes shined with innocence" he said.
there we go again.
The door opened and there stood a lady in her 50s greeting us warmly.
"oh welcome mr and mrs. shekhawat? did i get that right?" she asked us both smiling.
We looked at each other and nodded.
"and you are?" adi questioned.
"oh I'm the housekeeper, Mrs Jones."
The frown on his face made me think otherwise.
"uh the booking site did not mention a housekeeper or anything. Just a villa and the couples" he said squinting his eyes not sure if we were at the right location.
"oh no no. I just take care of the house in the absence of the couples. Don't worry sir you wont even know I'm here" she laughed.
Well that wont be a problem then. I thought she was staying in the villa with us. Then it would've been a problem.
"I dont stay here but my house is only 30 minutes away. When you're not in the villa, dial 9 on the cell and ill be here to clean up after you and stock everything you need" she described.
"oh okay. Well uh do you take additional payment or is that included in the payment we made for the villa?" adi asked.
She shook her head and smiled, her wrinkles making her eyes very thin.
"thats in the payment for the entire villa. I get my salary from there only" she said.
"oh okay" we said and we were led in the house where a few more people were waiting.
"uh" i said at the small crowrd holding trays and garlands.
"theyre only here for youre welcome" the housekeeper said.
And just like that we were welcomed and bidding bye in no time to everyone leaving us to explore.
I turned to face him who was already smiling.
"so what should we do?" i asked
"sleep"
hell yes.

Aditya's P.O.V.
The plan ride really tore us out and all we wanted was each others arms and a warm bed.
"yes please lets-"
my phone rang stopping me mid sentence seeing the caller Id.
"uh baby why dont you go upstairs and i'll join in a minute" i say.
she beamed and nodded and went up excited.
"what do you got?" I order.
"so far nothing. He looks like a normal teenage boy. All clean. No drugs , alcholol, family history's clear. Overall hes fine"
the voice was clear and firm. I hummed.
"good job. keep me updated" I said.
"yes sir"
Vidhi's boyfriend, vihaan. I'm keeping an eye on him. I don't have a choice, people dont like some people and hence try to hurt them. For reasons known only to god and to them. It has happened before and I swore not to let it happen again. I dont care what anyone thinks of me.
Anyone on my family's head goes through me first. They're important, no matter what. Its been a while since ive kept eyes on him and I dont plan to removing them.
I sighed and kept the phone in my pocket all ready to jump into my wife arms welcoming a good nap.
I climed the stairs and opened the door and naina was out in the balcony.
"adi this is the main room. I can see the entire entrance from here" she said holding her phone high and clicking a pic and hitting the send button.
I went behind her encircling my arms around her. "hmm I know."
A ping of a notification got my attention.
"whos that?"
"oh vidhi! she asked if we reached" she said typing back.
I looked at her and she gazed at me.
"we've been talking ever since we left for our honeymoon" she said and i smiled at her integration with the family.
shes doing well.
"well im tired and I would like my wifes attention. All of it." I said emphasisng and she looked up and smiled.
"in a minute" she said and went back to typing with huge smile on her face that just kept getting bigger making my heart beat loudly.
"there, she added in the family group. I can tell all of them now" she grinned typing furiously.
My phone pinged and I sighed.
Great! just what i needed. Everyones gonna go crazy now! aksing all sorts of question that might make her uncomfortable and make the leave the group.
well that my friends is not possible at all. This family group is like steel trap. Once youre in, you cant get out.
Speaking from personal experience, I tried leaving n number of times and was pulled back in the next second I left with thousand questions on why I left.
especially if any one of us is on a bussiness trip, we kill that person by asking his/her experience in the most brief way that even the autocorrect and keypad would glicth with the amount of typing.
and all the data I have to clean from my phone by the useless messages of 'good morning' to each other when we're sitting in the same room, literally couhes apart.
so yeah!
"good luck" I said looking at the unknown smile on her face.
She nodded without looking up and kept typing and smiling.
Yeah! good luck.
I laid on the bed and my body immediately relaxed. But something was missing, that warmth that my body is used to sleeping to, that tells my brain that the world can go to hell for now.
"nainaaa" i whined and she looked up from her phone.
I patted the space beside me and pouted.
"just a minute" she said and went back to smiling typing on her phone. I made a face and waited for two minutes.
All i could hear was giggles and it was making me jealous at anyone she was talking with. That smile is only mine. I dont care.
Huffing, I got up and walked towards tip toeing and snatched the phone away from her hand
"heyy!! adi!" she exclaimed and ran after me trying to grab her phone.
"nooo youve been on it for so long" i said runnning around the room laughing at her slow ass speed.
"what? no its only been 20 minutes" she said jumping over the bed and almost catching me when I slpiied from beneath her.
"yeah 20 minutes. That you could give to me" i said hiding the phone behind me and placing my back against the wall.
"and to our family, theyre important too plus ever since we got here, ive been giving you a lot of time" she said raising her eyebrows.
Yeah she was right! I didnt wanna admit that i was jealous of her smiling so much to others and seem stupid. I kept looking at her who had her hand spread out for her phone.
I looked at her and then her hand and smiled. I placed my hand in hers smiling as a smile broke out on her lips too.
"adii!" she said smiling and I just shrugged my shoulders.
She rolled her eyes "acha ok just 1 more minute and ill be in that bed with you" she said making her big and then small.
I looked at her for a few minutes and then gave her phone slowly and waited patiently and sadly as she walked away from me.
I went and lied on the bed looking at the face, her smile that was so long and pretty, reserved. her cardinal traits in that smile and the emotions her eyes flicked between was amazing. She was a beauty overall, one I didnt thank god enough for.
Her smiled closed as closed her phone and came on the bed next to me.
Where she belongs.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Naina's P.O.V.
"I know what's in that suitcase!" adi folded his arms and stood over my head as I covered the entire suitcase with my body, hugging it like it had something precious in it.
Well it did, but I couldnt show it to him. Out of shyness.
"nothing" I said pressing my chest against the suitcase wrapping my arms around it.
He raised his eyebrows bored.
I wasn't gonna give up, no not so easily.
Beaches yes! That's where he was taking Me. When he told me right after I got up from our nap. I got so excited.
"naina its mauritius, there are a lot of beaches here. That is what people wear there. Not jeans and shirts" he said frustated but I still wasnt gonna give up.
I dont care what they wear, but I do care about what I wear.
or even admit that I knew what he was talking about.
"I dont know what youre talking about" I said getting up and sitting on the suitcase itself. He raised his eyebrows.
ugh!! fine!!
"nooo I dont want to wear it" i said whining as my cheeks turned red as I rememebred the lierally 'non existent' clothing i was asked to wear.
A fucking bikini. that had nothing in it to cover my lady parts.
and where did that even come from?? i didnt put it there. and now i know who did.
vidhi!! and her gang!!! ughhhhhh!!!!
My nipples werent even covered properly and my butt was way too exposed. It was almost like a thong and adi was grinning all along. So much of me was exposed and I felt insecure somewhere. I was getting over a lot of things but who says those things dont affect you even after youve come over it.
At the end there will always be something that will make you think twice. Even you yourself.
Growing up in that typical Indian mentality of way too much exposure, it affects the way I look at things and the way adi looks at things, even though his is different.
Boldness makes me shy and somewhere feel like how? Do they practice or is it natural for them. Or better, its how they are, environment, upbringing.
Me and adi are evolving on our level of initmacy that both us are so ready for each other, no words required. Ready to be one. To give justice to this marriage, to make it official that we are now tied together in all ways.
Living with him has taught me a lot and changed me too.
A deep sigh made me look at adi.
He bent down and sat with me, taking my hands in his.
"if you dont want to, dont. No pressure okay. We can always wear something else. We'll figure something out." he said in the softest tone my heart melted and felt secure again.
No pressure from him at all. Well ive lived most of my life in pressure and being free from it after so long feels a different kind of empitness, like a storm just ended.
I smiled at him and nodded.
We'll figure it out, like we always do.
