Hey everyone. Thanks for the comments again. It helped in thinking through and gave a perspective!
So here we go on our avneil story..
----------

Avni was sleeping in Neil's arms on the couch
. She had just gotten tired of the goofing around with Neil and the afternoon heat had made them lazy and they dozed off.

Avni's eyes were closed but her mind was not at peace. Tomorrow was a big day for her and she still had apprehensions on whether Neil and her plan will go through properly or not. She just wanted the mansion at any cost as next step of demolishing Dayawanti's life further.

So her doubts were creeping into her mind now. She dreamt of a nightmarish reality when neil and she are living in khanna house. Then Dayawanti comes and confronts Neil's family about her. And she tells them things that she had told the entire world when avni was small. And then avni looked at khanna family to see that all of them were looking at her with hatred in their eyes. Shweta was smirking and held her by her hand and led her towards the door to throw her out. At this avni woke up with a start sweating -"nahi..". (No)

She opened her eyes in that shock and looked around. It was a sweltering afternoon heat and neil was still asleep. Avni got up and closed the window and switched on the air conditioner. It felt better now to have the temperature controlled.

She had a glass of water and thought that she cannot take dayawanti lightly. She had a feeling that something big was about to go wrong and very soon but she couldn't put her hands on what it was!

Avni clicked her tongue in frustration when she heard Neil moaning and walked up to him. He was waking up. Avni smiled looking at his semi sleepy face and sat down again by him.

Avni -"paani loge ?"(Water?)

Neil shook his head, still in half sleep. And then put his hands around avni and his face in the nape of her neck. And just kept on lying like that. Avni felt amazingly warm and held her hands around him to support his head and back and they sat in that position.

Avni -"Pata hai Neil. This all is too good to be true. These two days spent alone with you were clearly the best in my life.."(You know what neil...)

Neil opened one eye at this and smiled. His face was still buried in Avni's neck and he instinctively took a gentle bite at her base of her neck and shoulder. Avni gasped at this and pulled away from Neil.

Avni -"ye kya tha!"(What was this)

Neil -"bas Mera Mann kiya! Meri marzi main jo Karun wifey ke saath!"(I just wanted that. I can do whatever I wish with my wife)

Avni opened her mouth and then closed it. But she wasn't going to take it lying down. She decided to play along.

She was wearing a sea green knee length dress with a zip at the back. She adjusted it so that more skin becomes visible around her shoulders.

Neil felt his mouth drying up at this. Not just one but both his eyes opened. He said -"Avni now can I take you up on that offer of water. I realized I'm thirsty now!"

Avni quipped -"sure" and got the glass. While pouring out water to him she bent down so that Neil got some sight of her cleavage. She handed him the glass and his hands were trembling.

Neil -"Avni...please. Don't start something that you won't be able to stop "

Avni batted her eyelids playfully and said -"Maine kya kiya Neil!"(What did I do)

Neil gave a knowing smile at this. Avni's game was clear to him now. But Neil khanna would also not give in so easily!

As avni tried seducing him more, Neil got up and drank the glass of water. He then let a drop trickle down his chin and then wiped it on his white shirt sleeve slowly while looking at Avni all the time. Avni was still trying to look attractive to neil and did not realise he had caught up to her.

Suddenly Neil took off his shirt and exposed his well chiseled chest to avni. Avni was a bit shy on seeing it -"areey Neil ye kya Kar rahe ho!"(What're you doing)

Neil -"paani gir Gaya tha. Change Kar raha hoon. Waise bhi it's too hot!"(It became wet due to water falling on it. Anyways its too hot)

Avni -"arre hot Hai to aise rahoge? Please put something on"(if it's hot will you stay like this..)

Neil -"main to aise hi rahunga. Mera apartment Hai!"(Ill stay like this only. It's my house)

Avni, getting worked up now -"Achha to main chalti hoon !"(OK then I'll leave)

As she turned Neil pulled holding her hand and she twirled back to barge into his chest. Neil had taken care that her face doesn't bang into his chest as well!

Avni and neil stayed in that position for a minute. Both of them were now serious and lost in each other when neil said quietly -"ab to nahi jaane doonga. You're locked in my jail forever ms avni ayesha "(won't let you leave now)

Avni said something slowly -"Mrs.."

Neil -"kya?"(What)

Avni -"Mrs. Not miss. Mrs avni khanna.."

Neil felt so good at this that he didn't say anything. Just closed his eyes and kept his chin on her head, hugging her even more closely now.

He thought that he will protect his wife at all costs. And tomorrow he will ensure that each brick in dayawanti Mehta's house belongs to his wife.
