The way I used to live

Arjun's POV:-

The next morning, I woke up when I felt the sun rays seeping into the room and hitting us directly on our faces. I looked down to see that Daksha was still sleeping while snuggling into me. She frowned and scrunched her nose in irritation when the sun rays fell on her face.

I smiled at her cute antics and brought my hand forward to her face as a shield in order to prevent the sun rays from disturbing her sleep.

Soon, a relaxed expression etched her face making me smile even more. I slanted my face to watch her face more keenly. It was such a serene sight to watch my beauty having her beauty sleep. I laughed lightly at my own thoughts.

I kept on staring at her peaceful face in a daze but the sudden ringing of the alarm brought me out of my reverie.

Damn the alarm!

I stretched my hand to shut it off but retrieved it back when I saw her stirring in her sleep, her eyes fluttering.

Seeing this, I immediately closed my eyes and pretended to sleep. I felt her move beside me and heard a loud gasp. Knowing very well the reason behind that, I stifled my laugh and loosened my hold around her.

After she came out of my embrace, I heard her shutting off the alarm but what surprised me the most was, she again snuggled into me by placing her head on my chest.

After seeing our position, I thought that she would be hot on her heels but she did the opposite. She was so unpredictable.

After that, she started murmuring incoherently. Hearing her silly complaints, controlling my laugh became a difficult task.

Daksha's POV:-

I woke up due to the constant ringing of the alarm. I opened my eyes and looked around my surroundings in confusion.

After a while, everything dawned upon me that I was in Arjun's room. I laughed in my heart for my dimwitted brain but gasped immediately when I noticed our position. My head was on his chest and his hand was wrapped around my body securely. When did that happen?

I slowly released myself from his hold and shut off that irritating alarm. After that, I went close to him and waved my hand in front of his eyes and grinned widely when I noticed that he was still sleeping soundly.

I snuggled into him again and placed my head on his chest slowly in order to not wake him up. After that, I looked up to his face and started observing his every feature keenly.

I traced his perfectly arched eyebrows and his thick eyelashes with my fingers.

"God, you are too partial. What's the use of guys having these thick lashes and eyebrows when we girls are in desperate need of having them. You are so cruel." I questioned God in a low voice about the injustice he was doing to the entire gender.

I shifted my eyes to his prominent and sharp nose. My hands were itching to pinch his nose, to feel it but I controlled myself because it would wake him from his sleep.

I laughed lightly at my barbaric thoughts. After that, my attention drew to his lips. He had thin lips that were perfectly complimenting his chiseled jaw. I slowly ran my hand tracing the outline of his lips.

"How would it feel to have his lips on mine?" I asked myself in a low voice and slapped my forehead lightly after realizing my unholy thoughts. I looked guiltily at his innocent sleeping form.

But suddenly he opened his eyes with a teasing smile and flipped our positions swiftly. Now he was on top of me, pressing me under his warm body. A cry of surprise left my mouth and I looked at him in astonishment.

I turned my head and noticed a bathrobe hanging there. So I took it immediately and wore it. I opened the door a little and peeked into the room to check if he was present or not. I saw him sitting on the bed in a relaxed manner. He was resting his head on the headboard of the bed while placing his one leg on the bed and dangling the other one.
