28• Their First Kiss

They were riding to Nandini's house, and she was sitting on the back of his bike, holding him from behind with her hands in his jacket pocket. She was savouring the cool breeze that was caressing her face and fluttering her hair. She was entirely absorbed at the moment, feeling incredible.

She returned to the earth when a few raindrops landed on her. She took out her hands from his jeans pocket and splayed them, raising her face to the sky and closing her eyes. She was feeling out of this world to be with him on his bike while it was raining; it was heaven on earth for her.

He looked at her over his shoulder and a smile flashed on his face, seeing her enjoying the rain to the fullest.

'She is such a lively girl. I'm just smitten with her and feeling like kissing her.' He wondered, concentrating on the road.

As he halted the bike at some deserted place, she opened her eyes and moved her hands down. Their clothes were fully saturated.

"Why did you stop the bike?" She asked him, narrowing her brows in confusion as he turned his face to her.

She had no idea what he was going to do with her.

"Because I'd like to spend some time with my kiddo when it's raining." As he called her 'my kiddo', a crimson hue appeared on her face and her eyelashes moved down in shyness. Every time she blushed, he adored it.

"You look so cute when you blush." He tucked her wet hair behind her ear and moved closer to her face, accelerating her heartbeat and making her breath heavy.

'Oh God, what is he going to do?' She wondered, gazing at him with anticipation.

First, he kissed her wet cheek, sending a shiver down her spine and then grabbed her jaw and passionately sucked a water droplet from her face, electrifying her entire body. She felt divinely incredible, she never thought that a cheek could also make her feel like this. She just closed her eyes and utterly relished the touch of his lips.

"Would you mind if today I steal your breath away from you?" He asked in a husky tone, brushing her lower and already taking her breath away from her.

She grinned with delight, understanding what he was asking indirectly.

"I'm yearning for this." She answered, bringing a smile to his face.

"Step down and sit in front of me." He instructed her, and she beamed at him, nodding.

'I just can't believe that he's going to kiss me. Fuck! I'm dying out of excitement. Manik is going to kiss me, on his bike, in the rain. I never expected reality to be more beautiful than my imagination. Wow! I'm on cloud nine right now. This will be one of the most memorable days of my life.' She wondered as she climbed down from the bike and sat in front of him, straddling the bike.

'What is she doing to me? I have kissed a lot of girls before, but I have never been so excited. But, yes, this is my first kiss with the girl I like and who makes my heart sing. So it's special. I'm so excited to taste the delicious lips of the girl sitting in front of me, drenched in rain and looking ethereally beautiful.' He wondered, his eyes filled with affection and deep desires for her.

He clasped her wet face, and she shivered with the mere touch of his hands. They both gazed into each other eyes with passion and a hint of neediness in them. As he moved closer to kiss her wet lips, she closed her eyes and waited for him to kiss her. Her heartbeat was quickening with excitement.

The entire world came to a halt as their moist lips met. He sucked her upper lip, and she mechanically sucked his lower lip, clutching his damp jacket, feeling incredible. He slid his fingers through her wet hair and kissed her lips softly as if they were made of glass. To him, her lips were as soft as rose petals. He had never tasted such delicious lips and felt so good before. A surge of astonishment and emotions hurried through them with this kiss. It was almost as if they became addicted to each other's lips with their first kiss only.

Their souls seemed to be whispering sweet nothings to one another through their lips. The kiss was making them feel alive and touching their souls, and it was as pure as crystal without any lust, and truly they were stealing each other's breath through this kiss.

After a moment, they were passionately devouring each other lips like there was no tomorrow, his hands were roving all over her body, grasping her waist and searing her body with deep carnal desires. This was the first time she'd ever felt this way. The foreign sensation was driving her crazy and sending direct shivers between her thighs.

He slipped his hands into her dress, stroking her wet thighs and electrifying her body. She just stopped kissing him when she felt the touch of his rings and hands. He was driving her insane and escalating her carnal desires with the way he was kissing and fondling her legs. He grabbed her thighs and yanked her to himself, kissing her passionately and roughly while grasping her wet hair with one hand. He simply lost control of himself. He would have certainly left ring marks on her milky thighs from the way he grabbed her thighs.

The way he felt while kissing her was something he had never felt before in his life; his soul was at peace. He just felt like kissing her for the rest of his life.

He finally pulled away from her after the last time sucking her lips hard. She slowly opened her eyes, panting because of their never-ending passionate kiss. A smile flashed on his face as he realised that her hands were slightly inside the back pockets of his jeans.

"Baby, are you obsessed with the pockets of my clothes?" He asked her, encircling his arms around her neck.

"I think so. Hope you don't mind." She smiled sheepishly at him.

"Of course, not. In fact, I'm liking it. Your every little gesture is driving me crazy, Baby." As he told her, she beamed at him.

"When did it stop raining?" She asked when she realised it wasn't raining.

"When you were engrossed in the divine taste of my lips." He told her, and she blushed as she recalled their heavenly kiss.

"You're so adorable." He pulled her cheeks before giving a soft peck on her lips.

"And I think you're obsessed with my cheeks." She chuckled.

"Yes! Did you forget how much I adored your chubby cheeks this morning?" He asked and tried to pull her cheeks, but she covered her face with both hands. He found her super adorable as a baby.

"My Kiddo!!" He mumbled, gazing at her with love in his eyes, and moved closer to her to kiss her hands. A smile flashed across her face as he kissed both of her hands, one after the other. They both got lost in each other's eyes as she slowly removed her hands from her face.

She giggled. "I'm just savouring this moment."

"Me too. It seems like a dream because it is so surreal." He seconded her.

"It's even more beautiful than a dream. I have never been so happy before in my life. Thank you, Manik." She whispered merrily, touching her face with him and again slipping her hands into his jeans pocket.

"No, thank you, Nandini. You know I feel so alive when I'm with you." He confessed, stroking her cheeks with his thumbs and gazing at her with the pure emotion of affection in his eyes.

She answered, "I'm glad to know this." Her hands were still inside his jeans pockets.

He kissed her forehead, and a smile of utter contentment flashed on her face.

She sneezed. "I think I should drop you home or else you would catch a cold." He said, and she smiled, seeing him genuinely concerned for her.

"You know I love rain, but Ethan never lets me get soaked in it because I catch a cold right away." She looked at him with a sad expression.

"Don't worry, I'll never stop you from having fun in the rain. Even I will never stop you from following your desires." Her eyes twinkled with delight as he spoke.

She sneezed three times in a row and apologised, "I'm sorry."

"Now I think I'll stop you." As he said this, her eyes widened in shock.

"What, no." She cried out, and he chuckled.

"Now sit behind me; I have to take you home to change your wet clothes." He gave her instructions.

"Okay!" She took her hands out of his jeans pocket before climbing down from the bike and sitting behind him in the same way, sliding her hands into the pockets of his jacket and resting her head on his back.

He started the bike with a smile on his face. He had fallen in love without meeting her but his feelings for her grew stronger after meeting her.
