Update 70

Khushi was sitting on her bed relaxing her head on bed rest and smiling thinking something when she hears some sound and changed her gaze to the door to find Annie entering the room with a big basket nicely draped in a red cloth. Immediately she guessed that Annie had brought her Mehndi ceremony dressed. She smiled and moved forward and gave her a tight hug. Annie hugged her tightly expressing all her happiness. After subsiding the basket sidely on the dressing table, Annie and Khushi moved forward to bed. Annie cupped her face: you were looking very beautiful. I could see the blush on your face for this marriage.
Khushi nodded her head in negation: for Arnav's love.
Annie and Khushi both shared a sisterly bond and even after getting into another relationship of being sister in law, Annie had always been a sister for her. She is always her princess just as for Arnav and Annie also always considered khushi as her sister. 
Annie smiled at her reply and indeed she is right. 
Annie: You love bhai alot na???
Khushi: Arnav loves me more.
Annie: I am very happy. Just one more day and then you would always be with me. as my bhabhi. 
Khushi: Annie, I miss the time when I first met you on orientation.
Annie: ahem ahem, met me or bhai...
Khushi smiled and lowered her eyes in shy. Annie not loosing any more chances to tease her: Khushi, tell me. What did u feel when you first met bhai.
Khushi: Annie....
Annie: no excuses today. You never told me this. Cmon, tell me my dear Khushi bhabhiiiiii.....
Khushi: I was all lost when I first saw him, lost in his deep brown chocolate eyes. My heart pounded so fast that I feared that he would listen to it and on top of it, His beautiful smile filled all the space and I was all fallen for him at that very spot. the time stopped for me and I didn't realize anything else except than him. 
Annie: ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...... So it was love at first sight...
Khushi was by now completely turned to crimson: But I was too shy to speak to him..
Annie: hahaha, we know. Thats why when we all went for grous mountain, Me, jiju and Payal di left you both alone so that you both can step further.
Khushi looked at her with confusing gaze.
Annie: Hahha.... we three realized about the new feelings that were emerging in you both so thought of giving you your space and time and see it worked.
Annie: Acha Khushi, tell me when did bhai first kissed you and how was it and what did you feel.
ALl of sudden khushi went into flashback of their first kiss and smiled and turned red as tomato but soon came back to reality and gently hit Annie on her cheek: Youa re becoming very naughty these days. Annie smiled and was going to say something when immediately Khushi's phone rang. Before she could pick up the phone, Annie immediately get hold of her phone and seeing Arnav's name flashing on the screen smiled: Ohhhhh so my dear bhai jaan is missing you.

With this they both hung and and khushi lightly kissed her phone's screen displaying Arnav's Pic while on other hand Arnav placed the phone on his heart and smiled.

Khushi was sitting in the middle of a big seating surrounded by many other girls accompanying her and dancing music playing around and all family members and others dancing. Khushi is smiling and watching them all. She felt gust of wind and realizing about Arnav's presence she keenly looked towards the main entrance door but her vision was blocked by all the people dancing and standing infront of her. After realizing their presence all the family members moved towards the door to welcome the Raizada's but still she is not able to spot him. She has keenly kept her eyes on the door. She stood up and was walking towards door accompanied by Payal to welcome the guest. First she spotted her Akanksha and Ranveer and all other elders. Turn by turn she bend down and took blessing from all. After being blessed by all she turned around to find for the one she was keenly looking for, yes Arnav dressed in bottom green Sherwani matching exactly to her bottom green and silver Lehnga. Arnav and Khushi were both lost in each other. A gentle and subtle smile came on their lips but soon they came back to reality by a loud noise from back.
" Hey Khushi"
She shifted her gaze to find Ronit, walking towards her smiling and just stood next to Arnav.
Arnav in no time realized his voice and gave a What the look.
Khushi: hi Rocky
Rocky: Waooo!!! you are looking so stunning Khushi.
Arnav clenched his fist in anger and gritted his teeth which didn't go unnoticed by Khushi but She calmed him down with her eyes. 
Khushi: Thanks.
Realizing the senstivity of the the situation Annie immediately came to them: Of Course rocky, why won't khushi, After all this is the blush of bhai's love.
Khushi smiled and lowered her eyes with shy and her cheeks soon turned into red. Arnav was all flattened again seeing Khushi like this. How he wished to hug her immediately and kiss her rosy cheeks. Soon they were called in by elders. Khushi and Arnav togetehr moved towards the seating and settled down next to each other. Akanksha and Annie came towards them with some trays in their hands. Akansha sat on one side of khushi and kept the tray in her hand and unwrapped it reveling a jewellery box. She opened it to show a beautiful small diamond white gold pendant set, unique in style and its form. 
Akanksha: beta, this is for you on your mehndi shagun. Did you liked it?
Khushi smiled and nodde her head.
Akanksha leaned in and kissed her forhead and gently whispered in her ear: Ofcourse you would like it, its Arnav's choice. Khushi smiled and bent her head down. Akanksha then turned and took another tray from Annie which her all mehndi cones kept in it. She picked one and raised her hand for Khushi's hand: Mother in law apply the first dot on bride's hand. Both Akanksha and Garima applied a small dot on Khushi's hand and then asked the Mehndi girls to come forward and apply the best mehndi to the bride. All other girls also sat with other mehndi girls and started applying mehndi on their hands. Mean while there was a small dance and cheer mood going on infront of them where other family members were enjoying and dancing.
Arnav and Khushi were sitting together and deciding for the best design of mehndi. They both were having arguments on two design while the mehndi girl smiled: I can mix both the designs together. You can tell me which part of the design you both like and I would mix them.
Khushi: No I like Arnav's design more. 
Arnav smirked as he very well know that Khushi was just teasing him. he knows her choice and not even in her dreams she would choose for the other mehndi design. Mehndi girl smiled at how childish the girl is acting and started drawing with the design.
Arnav: (Whispering) So you was teasing me.
Khushi: (Whisper) No,
Arnav: yes.
Khushi: No
Arnav: yes
Khushi: No
Arnav: No
Khushi: yes and soon bit her tongue realizing she just outburst.
Khushi: Sorry,,,,,
Arnav chuckled at her baby face: You would pay for it baby soon.... and gently kissed her secretly which wasn't even noticed by anyone not even the mehndi girl. Khushi smiled and blushed.
Arshi were enjoying and having  a beautuful time spending with each other. All the while, Arnav had holded Khushi's one hand secretly under her veil and gently caressing her making her smile and blush.  While on one side one couple was romancing and having a fun time, other side our other love birds were not less. Payal was being accompanied by Akash and enjoying. It was hard for Annie and Ronit to be together infront of all still, by all means Annie and Ronit secretly decided for the design for Annie's hand and were talking with their eyes. Their eyes were enough to converse in between them and they both were enjoying this moment of secret relationship.
The mehndi was applied and soon the dance program began where all danced and ofcourse our Arshi were neverthless behind. After alot of convincing from Khushi, Arnav decided to dance with her in the function. All the members enjoyed alot and they had a rocking dance party. After having a tiring dance party, Arnav get another golden chance to be with his beautiful doll feeding her food. They were talking and chit chatting while feeding each other. They were seating on one table with their parents and Akash and Payal. Ronit had made arrangements so that all the family memebers can sit together and eat while all other reletives enjoyed on their own table. After having some good hilarious time at dinner finally the time came for Arnav to go back and now can only see khushi on marriage day. Ohh How he is going to spend one full day and another half day without seeing her. They can't be together for haldi ceremony. Before Going Arnav immediately grabbed khushi and took her upstairs to her room and locked the door. Khushi smiled at his impatience but was still worried, if any reletives found them together in one room before marriage.
Khushi: Arnav, what are you doing, What if someone ss...
Arnav: Shhhh!!! (Placing finger on her lips) You speak alot.... and moved her hand to grab her hand but khushi moved her hand back signalling him about his mehndi.
Arnav smirked and at once grabbed her by her waist and pulled her towards him with jerk, so close their their nose touching and one single movement and their lips would be together.: Is it okk now? (Asking him about their position)
Khushi blushed and lowered her head. Arnav raised her chin with his index finger letting her see exactly in his eyes.
Arnav: You look amazing baby..... I couldn't resist you...  He leaned in for her lips but was soon hugged by khushi in shy. Arnav smiled and hugged her too...
Arnav: I can't wait any longer for our marriage. still their is one day, Can't we skip that.
Khushi: Arnav you know, each ceremony has its own importance.
She came out of his embrace: You know this mehndi, Its signifies your love on me. I had accepted your love over me. You know as dark as the colour of this mehndi is, the husband loves his wife more.
Arnav: Ohhh soo the love of the husband depends on the colour of mehndi??? ( Sarcastic)
Khushi: Baby, its believed like this.
Arnav smiled and gently holded her hand as the mehndi is almost dried and kissed her hands: I don't know the colour of mehndi darkens or not but I love you alotttt baby.
Khushi smiled and wrapping her hands around his neck: I know. and gently nuzzled his nose with her nose.
Arnav: And what about tomorrow's function of mehndi.
Khushi: you know mehndi is sent frm inlaws side. You would be applied haldi first and then I would receive it. It signifies how a girl moulds herself in the colour and lifestyle of her husband. The haldi is the significant that I am ready to be completely yours, to be completely part of your life. 
Arnav smiled: You don't need that baby, You are already in all means mines and completely in the form I like. All this while Arnav is gently tickling her bare waist sending her shivers down her body. Khushi smiled and came out of embrace.
Khushi: don't make any excuses Arnav. You are becoming very naughty these days. Lets go down before anyone notice.
She moved forward towards the door but was pulled back by Arnav. Arnav gently leaned in an kissed her cheeks, the her nose and finally giving a small peck on her lips moved back and smiled seeing Khushi's closed eyes. He playfully flickered his finger on her nose bringing her back to reality: Lets go baby.
 Khushi smiled and both moved out of the room and soon were in their different places but their hearts still connected together and their brains thinking just about each other.

Love
