The moon in me finds

The sky in you...★

The days passed by and Reyansh and Aradhya's relationship grew stronger.

He took her to several dates--once taking her to amusement park which she loved a lot,he once set up a date in the park at night knowing she would love it around nature.they spent the time holding each other's hand,gazing stars lying on the grass.

Also the comfy dates, sitting inside the room spending time with each other watching movies while cuddling.

Today,Karan,dhruv, Reyansh and Aradhya all together were present in the living room of their apartment.

It's common then being all together now.but today it's different.

Seems like Karan was upset.

"Pookie don't be sad umm maybe we can go back to India and then meet him,how is it?"Aradhya suggested trying to cheer him up which she has been doing from last 20 minutes.

He was all bubbly in the morning but then he saw the article which said, Ishaant aghinotri is back to India and he became sad.

He didn't even have a chance to talk to his crush.

"But you don't like it there"he said with a pout.

He still put her above his own feelings.

"Doesn't matter,if you like someone you need to work hard and pursue him and win his heart,not here sitting and pouting-you look like a baby"Aradhya said trying to lighten the environment.

"He is a baby"Dhruv said emphasising 'a baby' but one glare from Aradhya and he was quiet.

Well dhruv and Aradhya have also bonded quite well and have grew closer.

"Weren't you the one who said that I will never cry over someone who never loved me and here you are pouting over a man who doesn't even know you exist"Reyansh said logically but Aradhya signals him to be quiet.

Seems like she didn't like his logic.

Cool he will be quiet then.

"Pookie-

"I am all fine aru, don't worry."Karan said cutting him off.

"After worrying us so much he is saying not to worry"Reyansh muttered under his breath,not happy that all the attention of hers was on Karan from last half hour.

"You better keep quiet Reyansh or i will chop off your tongue"she warned him and he acted as if zipping his mouth.

"Karan how about pasta? should I cook it for you?you love it right."Aradhya again asked trying to divert him and finally she was successful.

"Yesssssss"Karan streched the word long and Aradhya couldn't help but chuckle at his cuteness.

"My pookie is back"she said as she pinched his nose and then kissed his cheek.

"You both?"she asked.

"I will have pasta too"dhruv said.

"I will have whatever you make jaan"Reyansh replied.

She nodded as she went to kitchen.

"Such a drama queen you are"Reyansh commented after Aradhya left.

"At least I got to eat the pasta"he said smiling sheepishly.

"He and his obsession over pasta"dhruv mumbled shaking his head as a small smile crept on his lips.

"You were acting like we live in 90s and you can't see him at all without going there.he is a celebrity you will find his pictures on internet and articles about him"said Reyansh.

"You won't understand,i can see him but he can't see me right and if he can't see me then there is no progress in our relationship"Karan stated.

"What relationship?he doesn't even know you"dhruv said rolling his eyes.

"Ahh you don't need to break my heart like that bhai"Karan exclaimed dramatically.

With that he continued blabbering about how good looking Ishaant is and all that.

Reyansh was about to speak but then he saw Aradhya coming back so he kept quiet.

Man fears his lady.

"Pasta is ready"Aradhya said and Karan squealed in joy.

The other two males wondered if he was actually 26 or 6.no-no maybe 2 years old.

Dhruv sat on the sofa luxuriously,mobile in his hand but his attention was diverted to his bestfriend who was walking around constantly while talking to someone on call and by the look he could tell that he seemed excited and nervous.

'did he cracked up a deal?'this was the only thought that occurred in his mind.

One track mind, can't think of anything else other than business.

The call ended and he finally asked him"what happened?"

"Actually I am"Reyansh hesitated, rubbing his neck he muttered"I am planning to propose Aradhya"

'ok.why didn't I think of this?he would be nervous in such topics only'he thought to himself.

"Cool,best of luck"Dhruv simply replied.

"Hope she doesn't reject me...what if she does? No no"Reyansh blurred out.

Dhruv looked at him as if he had grown wings"you are acting like a teenager in love right now.get a grip on yourself man"

"You don't understand until you yourself are in this situation.it feels like my heart will come out of my chest anytime"Reyansh exclaimed.

"I don't want to be in this situation too"Dhruv muttered under his breath.

"Alright so what are you planning?"

"She once told me that she loves lakes and beaches.our first date was on beach.so I will be proposing her on lakeside"

"When?"

"I was thinking to propose her tomorrow,is it ok?"He asked nervously.

"Yes,it is.You both love each other that's what matters"Dhruv reassured him though he knew nothing about relationships.

Reyansh visibly relaxed and sighed.

"Is there something I can help?"Dhruv asked.

"I have managed it other things but I need your help with something "Reyansh said."also I need a suggestion"

"What is it?"he questioned even if he wasn't sure if he could suggest something related to this.

"Will she love boat ride?"he asked.

"If it's you, she will"dhruv answered without thinking much because he has seen them being lovey dovey in front of him and karan nowadays a lot.

"Hope so"he mumbled.

"So what are you going to say to her?"dhruv asked.

"I would just say, it's a normal date"Reyansh said shrugging off his shoulders.

______________________________________

'get ready at 6.i will pick you up for a date,jaan'

She read his message and smiled.

'ok'

She messaged him back and out the phone back on the table.

She blushed furiously as she snuggled her face into the pillow.

These feelings seem new and weird to her but also beautiful and peaceful.

'is this how it feels like falling in love with a person so deeply?'she questioned herself but didn't think of a answer which she already knew.

She looked up at the clock and checked the time,it was 4 pm right now.

She rose from her bed and moved to her closet.

Which dress should she wear?

Well he didn't even tell about where he is taking her so how is she supposed to decide her dress.

After a lot of thinking,she finally decided her dress and placed it on bed while she went for a bath.

______________________________________

She moved out of the house and as she looked up,he was looking handsome and in his black suit as always.

Their eyes met and his eyes sparkled up with happiness.

She smiled and went to him pulling him into a hug and kissing his cheeks.

"Here flowers for my man"she said giving him the bouquet.

"Thank you so much my lady"he said pecking her lips.

"Everytime I see you, it's like hitting a jackpot of happiness.you look so beautiful my lady"he complimented her and she couldn't help but smile at his words.

"You look fine too"she teased.

"Just fine?"he raised a brow taking a step closer to her.

She giggled as he gave her fake offended look.

"Ok ok you look handsome"

He smiled and kissed her forehead.

He held the door of car open for her

"Please get in my lady"he said bowing like a prince charming.

She smiled but as she saw the seat her eyes widened.A bouquet of flowers and some other gifts on the seat.

She gasped and turned to look at him who was looking at her with love written all over his face.

"Thank you so much Reyansh"she said wrapping her arms around his neck and placing a tender kiss on his lips.

He pulled her closer by her waist and whispered"I love this way of saying thank you"and took her into a kiss.

"So where are we going?"she asked as they both settled down on their respective seats.

"A surprise"he said and winked at her.

"Why do you look a little nervous?"she questioned.

A small smile crept on his lips thinking,she reads him too well.

"Thinking if you will like it or not"he said taking a turn.

"I will love it"she said smiling widely.

"Will see"he replied but his heart calmed a little hearing her say this.

After half hour ride,they finally reached the destination.

He moved out of the car first and then opened the door for her like a gentleman.

She moved out of the car and he gently holds her hand.

"Ready for the surprise?"

"Yes"she said excitedly.

As they continued to walk the view became clearer that was in front of them.

Her eyes were shining with happiness and excitement as she hold his hand tighter and makes him follow her as she runs ahead.

"It's so so beautiful.I love it.Thank you so much Reyansh"

"You could say me thank you other way"he said with a wink.

Blood rushed through her cheeks but she kept herself calm and composed and looked all around such a beautiful scenery.

They both kept moving ahead but suddenly the lights turned off and she felt that Reyansh wasn't beside her anymore.

"Reyansh?"she called him but heard no response.

With in an instant the lights were on and she turned around to see Reyansh on his knees.

She knew what is he doing?she would be lying if she says she wasn't waiting for it.she knew it was so fast but she couldn't help but think of it from the moment she recognised that she was falling for him.

Taking a deep breath, Reyansh looked up at aradhya whose eyes were wide in surprise and a soft smile began to form on her lips.

"Aradhya,"Reyansh began, his voice steady but filled with emotion"I know it seems so early but I can't wait to tell the world that I belong to you and you belong to me.I wish i could describe in words that how much I love you but it seems impossible.I didn't even know when I fell in love with you until I myself felt the pain you went through,the pain when you left me.my life felt so hollow and empty but why was I affected?I thought it was just sympathy but no it wasn't my Jaan.i was Falling for you knowing i shouldn't.i should not be doing so after the sins I did.But you are someone people can't help but fall for you and you do it effortlessly.I fall for you even harder everyday and I do not even mind it because it's Everyday you give me new reasons to love you even deeper which i thought I couldn't.i am possessed by you-by the power of your one glance.I am willing to worship you forever.I can't my future without you by my side."

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small velvet box. Opening it, he revealed a stunning ring that sparkled in the evening light. "Will you marry me?" he asked, his eyes never leaving hers.

Tears welled up in Aradhya's eyes as she looked at the ring, then back at Reyansh. She could see the sincerity and love in his eyes, and her heart swelled with happiness. "Yes, Ansh," she whispered, her voice choked with emotion. "Yes, I will marry you."

Reyansh slipped the ring onto her finger, and as he stood up, they embraced, both of them feeling an overwhelming sense of joy.

"Call me that again jaan"He pleaded.

"I love you ansh"She whispered with a soft smile on her lips.

Hearing her calling him ansh felt like a bless to his ears,he felt a wave of emotions wash over him.

Hearing this nickname,it felt intimate and special.

was as if she had taken a part of him and made it her own, creating a unique bond between them.

And he doesn't mind because he is all hers,hers to love,hers to destroy.

This was a simple yet profound moment which they both would cherish forever.

"I love you more meri jaan"he said pulling her into a passionate kiss.

"A boat ride with me?"he asked.

"OMG yesss!!"she said excitedly.

______________________________________

As she entered inside her room after their beautiful date,she was met with an another surprise.

She was shocked but was brought back to reality when her phone ringed and it was his call.

"Hey Jaan, how's the surprise?"

"How did you-i mean you were with me all this time"she asked confused but also happy.

"I took help of Dhruv"he answered.

"You didn't have to do this much ansh"she said her voice almost a whisper.

"But I wanted to"

A smile formed on her lips hearing him say this.
