Preeti's point of view

"May I have a dance with you." I turned to the source of voice and Siddharth was standing in front of me extending his hand towards me.

I didn't say anything just sit there and look at him whether to say yes or No. I wanted to dance with him but i don't know how to do a couple dance. I may be embarrassed him in front of everyone with my wrong steps.

"No, I am fine.." I said with heavy heart.

The smile on his face fell and I feel ping of hurt looking at him. But suddenly he took my hand and started walking towards the dance floor.

"Siddharth I said no." I said looking at him.

"I know you wanted to dance with me. I can tell that looking into your eyes." He said while walking.

"That's not true." I said try to take my hand from his hand. He stopped suddenly and turn me towards him.

"Okey then say it looking into my eyes." He said while holding me by my shoulders.

I can't tell lie looking into his eyes so I looked down in embarrassment. He still perfectly know me.

"But I don't know how to dance? I don't want you to feel embarrass to dance with a lees experience person." I whispered in a low voice still looking down.

He put his hand on my chin and raised my face.

"Preeti look at me." He whispered.

I slowly raised my eyelids and look into his deep brown eyes and he is looking at me lovingly.

"You never a embarrass me. I fell proud and complete when you are with me and don't worry about the dance just move your body accordingly to mine and after that if you feel uncomfortable tell me." He whispered looking into my eyes.

I nodded my head slowly.

Siddharth took my both hand and placed them to his shoulders after that he slowly slid his both hands to my arms and then put them on my bare waist.

I gasped when he suddenly pull me towards him by my waist with a jerk.
My heart is beating like insanely and ready to come out from from its rib cage. I am already having a hard time to control my emotions but now he is making it difficult. He started moving our body accordingly to music.

"You look beautiful today." He said while looking at me.

"You don't look anything less." I muttered under my breath.

He chuckled softly.

"You know you can praise me loudly." He said looking at me with a smile. I bent my head lower and chuckle. I bit my lower lip to control the pink shade on my cheeks.

"Actually scratch my previous words, you look more then beautiful." He leaned closer and buried his face in the crook of my neck. He flared his hot breath on my neck. I shivered and clutched his shoulder tightly to control myself from moaning.

"...and your off shoulder blouse and bare waist. You shouldn't have wear that now everyone is looking at what is mine. You drive me crazy. You don't have any idea how I am controlling myself not to touch you." He whispered huskily in my ear.

I take a sharp breath when his lips touched my neck and he pull my neck thin chain with his lips. I clutched his nape hair and closed my eyes to control myself from moaning.

He slowly take my right hand from his neck and put it on his heart. I can feel his heart is beating insanely like mine.

"This is what you are doing to me. It started beating insanely whenever i think about you." He whispered while touching our foreheads.

He twirled me with by holding a same hand which is on his heart and back hugged me and move our body with a music. He put his both hand on my bare waist and put his chin on my right shoulder.

"You said that I am late for second chance then why do you still wear the same chain which I gifted you." He whispered in my ear huskily.

He twirled me again and pull me closer to him by my waist. I put my both hand on his shoulder.

"What you made yourself in two years. Your eyes lost the glow which they had when I last saw you. They looked empty now." He said while caresseing my cheeks with his hand.

"May be they are craving for someone." I whispered looking to him holding my emotions as well as my tears.

"...and that someone will get the glow back in your eyes." He said while looking at me with emotions, guilt and regret.

"What if he leave me again and shattered my already broken heart?" I asked looking at him with lots of emotions tears welled up in my eyes but I didn't let them fall.

"Then he will joint every broken piece of your heart and never going to leave you this time." He said with a same emotions as mine.

"What if it was beyond to repair and she is scared that her heart will break again?" I asked him again almost in a whisper.

"I know you love me too. But I know at the same time it's difficult for you and you need more time to think about it and I respect it." He said while cupping my face.

"Preeti take as much as time you want. But before you will reach any conclusions I wanted to tell you that I love you so much and I loved you also two years ago and I will be in love with you till my last breath. " He said with sincerity. I can see honesty in his eyes.

Tears welled up in my eyes at his love confession to me. How can I tell him I also love him so much and I will be in love with him even after my death.

Everyone stopped dancing then I came to know that the song in which we are dancing is finished. New song is started already and people started exchange their dancing partners.

Siddharth took my hand and we started walking out of the dancing floor. Suddenly I felt thirsty.

"Wait, I need a water. I am thirsty." I said looking here and there for waiter who took a water bottle.

"Here.." Siddharth handed me water bottle which he took from the passing by waiter.

I started drinking water directly from the bottle.

"May I have a beautiful dance with a beautiful lady?" A man came to us and asked me for a dance but I can't refused I was still drinking a water.
