White describes purity and peace, strength and kindness. The white dress fits me very well.

The dress hit my knees, the sleeves were of white net and the back was cut into a deep 'V'. Pretty perfect!

I tied my hair in a bun with a pearl clutch. My ears shined with pearl earrings and I complimented my look with white stilletoes. With a light eye makeup, I complete my look.

The clock read 7:20 p.m., my time to leave. I wonder what will be next. What has Roy planned?

I tried to calm my nervousness. This is Roy and no-one else. Everything will be fine.

Silver Spring Park was an hour drive including traffic. And with my luck, I got stuck in traffic and therefore I reached a few minutes late.

The huge park was empty and dark. Strange!

I parked my car and walked towards the entrance. I step foot on the pedestal and walked through the aisle. The passageway was in the middle of rows of trees and bushes and olden style pillers. The Silver Spring Park was made by the british before the Indian Independence.

The park was beautiful with the old english architectural touch.

As I started walking, one-by-one the wooden lanterns lit up, giving me light to walk the way. Those are my favorite lanterns, carved by blind carpenters.

After 20 lanterns were lit, the passageway ended to a beautifully decorated garden full of white roses.

This is extremely beautiful. I stared in awe.

But.... where is Roy?

Click! A white light flashed and I knew it was Roy with his camera.

Two, three more flashes.

I smiled as he came infront of me and was granted with his own handsome smile. He looked very handsome in his white shirt with folded sleeves and blue faded jeans.

"You look beautiful." He complimented.

I blush immediately. "You are no less." He grins.

"Thanks for coming."

"You left me no option." I smile.

He scoffed. "Means if you had an option then you would have not shown up and reject me?"

"You never leave me a choice, Roy." I say and roll my eyes. Well, good start to my date.

His eyes flashed sadness. I immediately regret my statement.

"Just kidding. I wouldn't reject you." He flashed his widest grin.

"This place looks beautiful." I look around in awe. The whole place was lit by lanterns.

"Beautiful place for a beautiful girl." He smirks.

"How cheesy!" I chuckle at his line. "Thanks for your gifts." I give a genuine smile.

"Stop saying thanks."

He pulled the chair for me to sit. Such a sweet gesture. Who knew Roy was such a romantic gentleman.

"I have a gift for you." He smiles and places a silver paper wrapped gift.

"You already gave me so many gifts." I said. I'm not used to so many gifts.

"This is not exactly a gift... umm... just open it." He orders.

I tear open the silver wrapper and there was a torn copy of 'Wuthering Heights.'

My eyes went wide with shock. How did he get this?

"How? Where?" I asked.

"I stole it from your school bag once." He chuckled.

"I thought I lost it. This was a gift from my dad." I kept looking at the old novel and admiring the only gift that I got from my father.

"Your dad?" He asks carefully.

Oh God! What did I blurt out? "Um... yeah... dad gave me this as a gift."

"Your never talk about him. May I know why?" Nosey much, Mr. Singhania?

"I don't like to talk about him." I say monotonously but my voice quivered at the end.

Roy poured me white wine and he took some whiskey for himself.

He smiled at me and took my hand from the table.

"Dance with me."

I smiled and got up from the chair. His arm came around my waist and one holding my hand. I held on to his shoulder.

Ed Sheeran's 'Kiss Me' started playing in the background.

We swayed to the rhythm of the song.

Settle down with me,

Cover me up

He came closer to me. I rest my head on his chest.

And your heart's against my chest,

Your lips pressed to my neck.

He pressed his lips against my neck, below my ears and showered me with feathery kisses.

I'm falling for your eyes,

But they don't know me yet.

"I love your eyes." He said and ran his nose along my neck. I closed my eyes and my body burned with desire.

I'm getting lost.

Kiss me like you wanna be loved

You wanna be loved

You wanna be loved.

This feels like falling in love

Falling in love

We're falling in love.

"What are we?" He whispered in my ear. "Are we falling in love?"

He bit below my ear and I moan. His hand moves to my lower waist and he pulls me closer.

Yeah i've been feeling everything

From hate to love

From love to lust

From lust to truth

I guess that's how I know you

So I hold you close to help you give it up.

How can the song speak the exact words that I feel?

So.... kiss me like you wanna be loved.

You wanna be loved.

"Kiss me." I blurt the words.

He looks at my eyes and in a second crashes his lips to mine. The kiss was full of raw desire and hunger. Our lips moved in perfect synchronization. I felt hot, all over.

Kiss me like you wanna be loved.

You wanna be loved.

The little nips on my bottom lip, gave me intense pleasure. A moan escaped and Roy took the chance to invade my mouth with his hot tongue.

I feel it. I feel the love.

This feels like falling in love

Falling in love

We're falling in love.

Dinner went by laughing and giggling and teasing me here and there.

We had a perfect punjabi food. Daal makhani with butter on top, baby nuns, chilli pickles and so many more. At the end we both had a big glass of lassi.

Funny, a dinner started with wine and ending with lassi. We Indians!

--------

"Come. Let's walk." He said, taking my hand. Roy was always fond of walking, it helps him to think.

"These shoes hurt." I whine. I hate wearing heels and walking with them feels like walking bare feet in hell.

Roy chuckles. "I thought you love wearing them."

"No! I just hate them. I wish I could wear my Nike all the time." I say and pout my lips.

He laughs. "Open them." He said.

We both opened our shoes and walked barefoot in the grass. This is so relaxing!

I let out a relaxed breath. Roy smiled. He pulled me by my waist and kissed my hair.

"Look." He pointed in front of me, the end of the bushes.

Fireflies and fireflies. Everywhere millions of fireflies. It looked like little dancing bulbs.

"Wow!" I gasped at the beauty of the scenery.

"Will you be my girlfriend?"

Huh, what? Did he just asked me to be his girlfriend? Shocked!!

"What?" I ask.

"Will you be my girlfriend, Ashu?" He asked.

What should I say? What if he cheats me or leaves me? Oh God!

You wanted this. My conscious snapped.

"Ashu?"

"Roy..." this is not the time to get emotional. Oh God! "Do you really have feelings for me more than just an ex-girlfriend or friend? Can I trust you?" I ask, totally confused and out of my mind.

"Yes. I love you." He whispers, looking at his feet.

My heart flutters at his confession. "I always loved you, but I was a coward. I didn't want a relationship then, I wanted to explore and experiance. Now I know what mistake I made." He said. I looked at him and my heart felt warm.

"Give me a chance, please. Let me show you that I have changed. Let me show you that I love you. Let me correct my mistake." He begged. I didn't know what to say. I was rendered speechless.

"You won't leave me, right?" I asked without thinking about my words. That was my greatest fear that he will leave me in the long run.

"No." He looks at me with sad eyes. I know my question hurts but I can't go through the same pain again. The pain was just unbearable.

"You have to promise me that you'll not see any other woman when you are in a relationship with me. You have to be loyal, Roy." Am I ready for this? I ask myself.

He looks at me as if I've grown ten heads. "Do you not trust me?" He asks.

Now that's a million dollar question.

Do I? Yes. No. I don't know, I am confused. After the Natasha incident, I trust him less.

Okay, I don't trust him like I did before.

"Ashu?" Roy interrupts my thoughts.

"No." I say it almost in a whisper. A kind of pain and dispair flashes throuhg his eyes but disappeares quickly.

"I understand." He sighs and looks away.

"But if you promise me that you'll be loyal and faithful to me then I might give us a chance again." I smile at him.

He looks at me and smiles. "Yes. I promise to be loyal and faithful to you and only you." He kisses my forehead. I smile at the sweet gesture.

He asks me again, "so, will you be my girlfriend?" With such determination in his eyes.

"Yes." I kiss him lightly in his lips.

"I love you." He says while looking into my eyes.

"I love you. Always had and always will."

He captures my mouth in a hot kiss. Once again, I'm lost in my world of fantasy.
