His eyes examined her busy in some conversations.
He stepped further, and took his seat.

"Ohh finally Karan Luthra is here.." preeta's book dropped from her hand as he listen those lines from her friend.
She was her back facing, so she didn't saw his face, but still nervousness developed in her.
She was making her mind with the thought he had never seen her, so he can't recognize her as his secret admirer, but still her gut feeling wasn't in her support today.

She whispered out of her breath "Karan Luthra"

She turned around.
What she found was his eyes glued to her only, but it striked her mind and she remained shocked.

Preeta : (shocked) he is karan ?

"Yes.. he is only, didn't you knew it ?" Her friend replied her.

Preeta didn't help herself but coughed in order to ignore his gaze.
But unfortunately it didn't helped.
Preeta too wasn't able to take her eyes from him.

Ohh, how she can be so dumb to not recognize him, when he was interrogating her !!!
She mentally slapped herself.

Preeta : Aisha, I... I.. think I should... leave now...

She stammered under his smirking gaze.
Preeta turned to go, but aisha held her hand.

Aisha : why in so much of hurry, ruk na interview khatam hone ke baad jaa.

Preeta : but...

Aisha : (interrupting her) no if and buts, you aren't going anywhere and that's final.

Preeta felt disappointment, she somehow was succeeding in keeping off her gaze from him and from his answers to them.

He is more than perfect, seems like an idol of beauty, he is so accurate in figure just like his unmistakable books. How one can ever resist from his thinking.

"Indeed beautiful" His word snapped her thoughts.
She widened her eyes realizing she was checking him out being lost in him. But did he complemented her just now ?

Reporter : what sir ?

Karan shift his gaze from preeta.

Karan : my experience, it was indeed beautiful as you asked.

Reporter : oh ok.

Preeta's breath released. She too was unaware about why she thought like he just talked about her.
It was becoming hard for her to stay there.
She was just wondering, when the session will end, and she'll be out soon, but she was also praying it for not to be.
As who knows when she'll see him after this.

Reporter : sir, what you think you are, a good writer or a bookworm.

"Secret desirer..." This time his line shocked her more, making her sure it is she only karan is talking about almost after every line, but secretly.

Well, the starting of their love is itself a secret.

Karan : secret desirer of books I am.

And he smiled remembering her,
Resulting in a layer of blush appeared in preeta's cheeks.
She looked down smilingly, it skipped karan's heart for her.

Indeed after books, she is the only thing in which he is wishing to be lost forever.

His books were the reason he was writing for her,
But she is becoming the reason he now wants to write for love.

The session came to end.
Preeta find a better chance to escape.

Preeta : (whispers) Aisha, I am having some important work, I a leaving.

And she immediately stormed out with a lot of nervousness.
She sighed thankfully as she reached the elevator, as she is now out of his sight.

A hand stopped the elevator's door from closing it. Preeta didn't care about it until the person's face came infront.

Her eyes widened due to ultimate shock, and his smirking face made her weak more and more.
Karan came in with his dashing attitude and winning looks.
Door closed, and they bother were now left alone inside.

Karan : hello Miss. Arora.

Karan greet her as soon he entered in.

"Hello..." She too great back with a light smile. She gulped

Preeta : (in mind) Oh godd.. hamesha aisa mere hi saath kyuu? Kyuu ??? (Makes a cry baby face)

Moreover karan too start to tease her. Did she ever knew how much naughty he is ?

Karan's eyes were only on her scanning her.
The next moment they both felt sudden shake. They wide their eyes.

"Nooo...." Preeta screamed making cry baby face.

Karan : ohh godd... Ise bhi abhi hona tha. (He frowned)

Karan turned on his mobile's flashlight. He glanced at her face, seems like she is in the verge on crying. Something striked his mind.

Karan : wait a minute !! Preeta tum claustrophobic ho ?

Preeta looked at him.
She nibbled her lips between her teeths and looked down.

Preeta : (nodding head) ahaa hann maybe...

Karan : (confused) maybe, aren't you sure ?

Preeta : (nodded in no) No, but I am feeling so weird, ghutan jaisa ho Raha hai mujhe (said innocently)

Karan stare at her, then chuckled at her innocence.

Karan : (chuckling) aisa nahi hota hai preeta wo.. (thinks) leave it, mai hu na tumhaare saath.

Their luck strived to them and network aslo vanished like a magic.

Karan was checking her out in minutes, she was feeling so hot,
Her irritating face due to hair was making her more cute.
Karan smiled, and moved towards her.

He slightly passed a blow on her face, feeling it she closed her eyes.
Her hairs removed away from her face giving karan a clear veiw of her face.
He was falling for her more as he was going closer to her.

Preeta open her eyes to see him so close to her.
His manly smell raced her heart, and his wide open eyes filled with love for her lost her mind completely.

Karan : (huskily) abhi ghutan ho rahi hai ?
Preeta nodded in no absent mindedly.

Karan gave an another soft blow on her face. This time preeta open her eyes and their nose were touching with each other.

Preeta : y..ye tum...

Karan kept his finger on her lips.

Karan : just feel it.

He was leaning more closer to her, their breath mingled in each other.
Just then, she open her closed eyes not feeling him anymore, there he backed smiling.

Her closed eyes gave him the permission, and her silence gave him the answer.
Preeta understood his silence confession, after all being a mind reader only through the books, it definitely not anything to read himself.

Preeta too smiled and kept her both hands on her shoulder, and very next moment they explored each other deeply.

Karan broke the kiss, and rested his head against her.
He tucked a falling hair peice of her behind her ears.

Karan : (in her ears) want to hear that magical question babydoll ??

Preeta nodded in yes excitedly.

Karan : Will you.... Be my secret desirer ?

She looked at him, and they chuckled.

Preeta : (chuckling) for ever...

And the screen faded on their leaning faces.

Those elevator moment made their life, for which she never prayed for...

They indeed both were secret desirer, but little did wantedly missed of each other.
