After another clinical win. It was another team night session for the RCB players, recovery and enjoyment was a very-very important part of their campaign. The captain wanted it to be known that his boys had done really-really well and they deserved to have a beautiful fun-filled night. This led to another team beach dinner being organized with a bonfire.

The hoping and retreating waves reflecting the night sky, starry sky, fairy lights and the glow of happiness on the faces of each and every member of the team made the night memorable. The types of food items placed in the open buffet were innumerous. The choice and preferences of each and every player were taken in consideration. The people with a sweet tooth were throwing gooey eyes towards the still hidden dessert stall. Even simple custard will do for them right now.

Presently, the dinner of most of the players was done and they were kinda waiting for the late-Latif people to finish their food. The people staring at them every now and then made even the most slowest eaters, hurry up, a bit. Well, the reason behind the looks was the captain's decision to not open the dessert until everyone was done. So, once everyone finished eating and savouring their food. Every eye turned towards the dessert stall and every mouth watered noticing pudding being their chosen dessert.

Beaming smiles were thrown towards the Captain by the kids looking forward to gobbling down at least two or three servings of pudding.

"It's High protein pudding. It's good for recovery," Feeling all the eyes on him, Virat said as nonchalantly as possible, making it seem, it wasn't actually his treat to the kids for their exceptional dedication and performance for the team.

The kids were smart enough to know their captain won't ever admit that this was his treat. So, they just passed him extra-large beaming smiles and decided to hug him in a bone crushing hug after eating their pudding of course. They didn't trust some people around them to not make the whole thing disappear in seconds. So, the kids eagerly made a beeline for the dessert stall.

After all Vi bhai kaha bhaage ja rhe the, real danger toh pudding ko tha.

Yuzi being the leader of this race and standing there with bowls of pudding they glanced at each other with absolute scrutiny checking if someone had gotten more than them or not. Unknown to them, they were absolutely looking like kids totally suspicious of their siblings skills of toqually dividing chocolate. The elders were silently laughing at their antics while waiting for their chance.

"Well done, Biscuit," AB said proudly. Standing beside Virat, wrapping his arms around Vi and resting his chin on Vi's shoulder. A perfect place for him to watch the kids' antics bemused.

Virat was internally dancing with extreme glee. He was like on moon watching his kids doing well and now look so happy, always had been the best moments for him. But outwardly Virat made an "I didn't do anything," expression fooling absolutely, no one.

"Good try, cheeku," Parthiv Patel said ruffling Vi's hairs in an "I'm so proud of you kiddo" manner messing up Vi's perfectly styled locks. Well, Virat had spent like hours styling Dev and his hairs. They shouldn't be messed up, not at all.

"Bhai yaar," So Vi whined trying to fix his hairs as everyone laughed at his expression. He was no way anything but an overly annoyingly cute little brother for them. ABD and Dayle who were in the franchise in 2008 and had witnessed that all-rounded chubby Cheeku couldn't think of him as anything but that–a little annoying but good brother.

The same could be said for Parthiv, though he wasn't with the franchise from the beginning. Virat had always treated him as an elder brother and so, he always had been a younger brother for Parthiv.

A younger brother they were laughing at right now.

"Well, Well, I've to say I love your choice of dessert mate," Chris said grinning very happily. Hanging around Parthiv and Dayle. Well, Zampa would also have been with them if he wasn't already involved in the pudding stealing riot.

And Virat couldn't help but grin back too.

"Well, I better go and steal some now." Chris said eyeing the kids still fluttering around the stall "Daal *insert a scowling Dayle* interested in accompanying me,"

Dayle rolled his eyes at Chris. He couldn't believe everyone was calling him "Daal or Dalf (pronounced Da-elf) " from days. He was so done with these obnoxiously, clingy and irritating people.

"What? I like that name" Chris defended himself and dragged Dayle with him towards the stall. Well, he needed Dayle to distract the kids while he stole pudding. It won't do if no pudding was left for them.

Not at all.

Parthiv followed behind the pair muffling his laughter.

"There goes another set of overgrown kids to fight desert pirates," AB declared, watching his teammates walk away totally amused. He didn't know how all of them turned absolute kids at such situations.

Virat couldn't help but laugh hearing those words. He was enjoying this merry environment very much and at that precise moment Siraj, Washy and Dev juggling about ten bowls of pudding between the three of them descended on Abrat.

"Virat bhaiyaaa!!!" All three exclaimed delightfully.

Virat just raised his eyebrows clinically at the bowls of pudding with them. They just smiled innocently.

"Virat bhaiya,app nhi khaoge" Siraj asked eating from one bowl while possesively cradling the remaining two on the plate.

"Thank you, Virat bhaiyaaa" Dev beamed pulling Virat in an one-armed hug. Well, because his other hand was holding a plate with pudding bowls on it and he really wanted to hug his Virat bhaiya.

"Virat bhaiyaaa," Washy said being generous and forwarding a spoonful of pudding towards Virat.

Virat didn't know whether to laugh or cry? How did he get such kids was beyond him? Still, being a dutiful brother he ate the pudding placed in front of his mouth.

"You're the best brother," Washy beamed.

Virat just smiled.

How did he turn the best brother by just eating pudding was beyond him?

But how come Siraj and Dev remain still after watching Washy feed Virat. They also wanted to do just that so two more spoonfuls of the pudding were placed in front of Virat together with wide excited eyes daring Virat to reject their offer.

Virat couldn't.

He took two more bites. Wishing with all his heart no other kid should suddenly have this intense desire to feed him desserts.

"All the love for Virat bhaiya only," a bemused AB asked watching the kids looking ready to have a round two of–feed Virat session.

"Areey, no, no Ab sir here," the kids exclaimed together placing three spoons full of pudding in front of AB.

Virat gave, now you know what I go through, looks. AB just shook his head at his biscuit and ate from all the three spoons though he still found it quite hilarious how possessive the kids were being of their puddings.

Like who loads bowls of pudding and handles them with such expertise? On the other hand, Virat was strangely reminded of bin bulaye barati eating in big fat Indian weddings.

At this moment, a balkhata, lehrata Yuzi dragging Nav with him reached Abrat. He looked totally unhappy with the prospect of a gathering without him.

"Mere bina, Sharm toh aayi ni hogi aap logo ko?" Yuzi accused all of them munching on chocolate with pudding.

Virat made a 'bs yahi baki tha' face thinking why he is surrounded by such overdramatic people? While the kids tried their best to hide their snickers.

Thank God, Mahi bhai, Ro, Jinks and Ash weren't around. They would have asked Virat to look at a mirror definitely if they could read his thoughts.

"Accha, I'm a great guy so I'm forgiving you but as you're fulfilling everyone's wishes, fulfil mine too," Yuzi said dramatically acting like he was doing a great sacrifice by doing so.

"Wait a minute, yeh kb hua??" Virat asked totally baffled but was totally ignored by Yuzi. Well, Yuzi had a wish that should come true.

"So you know it's Navratra season right Vi bhaiya. I want to have a garba night," Yuzi said.

"You serious," Virat asked entirely sceptical. How'll he arrange a garba night in Dubai?

"Yes, right now," Yuzi said with big wide eyes.

"You've gone crazy," Virat declared.

"Nhi na, I want to dance na Virat bhaiya please, please" Yuzi begged and everyone around them knew Virat lost the fight right then and there.

The kids had found the whole affair very funny. AB though he didn't understand much of the Hindi conversations found the expressions of the two absolutely hilarious.

So, none of them were actually surprised that Virat's portable loudspeaker was brought on the scene. Yuzi declared himself the self proclaimed Dj and dancer.

Dhan was asked to send the playlist and like that Yuzi began doing Garba around the bonfire, super excited and energetically with Virat as his partner. Virat dragged Parthiv with him.

A Patel wasn't at all allowed to stand as a spectator during a garba night. Soon, he was joined by Dayle, Chris and Zampa. Dev, Nav, Maan and Siraj were totally dragged in by Virat and Yuzi.

And the rest of the players watched them dance around totally amused though one by one the foreign and other players retired to their rooms.Too tired to stay out long after the match day.

Only Virat, Yuzi, Dev, Nav, Shiv and Washy we're left and that too only because Yuzi absolutely refused to let them go. They weren't allowed to go till he had his fill of dancing.

"Bhai mere manja re," Virat said finally slumping on the bench, leaning on Dev. Dev who looked ready to fall asleep holding Virat. Even Washy was clutching onto Virat half asleep on the other side.

"You guys are no fun," Yuzi sulked dramatically still dancing with Nav and Shiv. Well, more like forcing Nav and Shiv to dance.

Who gives up on Garba night so soon? It was kind of insulting to think something like that. His brothers were being absolute spoilt sports. He had plans for an all night dance party by the beach and here, they looked half asleep already with such energetic songs being played around.

They were being ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous.

"You're absolutely right, Uzi bro," a new voice announced dramatically.

And all of them turned as one to look at the source of the new voice. Virat distinctly having an ominous feeling that he won't be allowed to sleep tonight. It came true watching Rah, Harry, Shrey, Rishu, Jassi, Kul and Manku grining towards them. Well, Manku, Jassi and Kul were smiling appologetically the other devilishly.

"Bossman, a Garba night without me...aren't you ashamed," Harry all but demanded in a way of greeting all but pushing both sleepy Dev and Washy away from Vi as he wrapped himself around Vi's shoulder like Betal.

"What are you doing here?" Virat asked instead gently pulling Dev and Washy back towards him. The two sleepy kids to content to snuggle with Vi to care right now.

"Now, aren't you happy to see us, Virat bhaiya," Rishu asked faking tears, looking genuinely hurt though he was absolutely feigning.

"Of course, I'm kiddo just surprised itni raat ko," Virat asked and the kids felt themselves beaming quietly with their Vi bhaiya's care.

"Bro our hotels are neighbours," Shrey shrugged. He wasn't about to tell Vi that they were keeping an eye on the whole dinner event and had been waiting like an hour or so for the foreign players to disappear so that they could make their entry.

They tried calling Vi but his phone was with Nush bhabi. They talked with bhabi and the baby and then let bhabi sleep. Now, they had no such plans.

"Toh Ehalo," Harry vibrated with excitement revolving in circle around Virat with Yuzi joining him. He got another person as full of excitement and energy as him. Yuzi was very happy.

His Garba night finally seemed to look successful.

"Abey saas toh lene do," Virat muttered the kids totally agreed with Virat's sentiment.

"You okay Virat bhaiya," Jassi and Kul asked silently taking their place beside Virat. Their arms resting on Virat's shoulder.

"Yeah, how are you both?" Vi asked grinning ruffling their hairs. They beamed back. Their Vi bhai cared for them the most. Even though Dev and Washy were currently using him as pillow.

Mayank sat on the bench parallel to Vi's and let Nav and Shiv use him as their pillow. Both the boys looking at him with thankful eyes for saving them from Yuzi's clutches. Well, Yuzi was too busy dancing with Shrey and Harry to notice their absence.

"Water," Rahul asked Virat softly, holding a water bottle near him.

"Thanks Moi," Virat smiled.

Rahul just shook his head, opened the water bottle and held it for Virat to drink. And Vi again pondered was it feed Vi day or something? But he didn't complain.

"So, bossman when are we restarting the party? Is there any pudding left for me?" Harry asked vibrating next to Vi.

"Nops, I took the last bowl," Rishu replied who had actually gone to check if anything eatable was still left or not? He found some pudding and iced tea in the mini-fridge.

Harry, chased after Rishu to have a bite of the pudding while everyone else yelled various things after them. Once, Harry had caught Rishu, eaten half of his pudding both of them returned to where the others were sitting. Jassi, Kul and Rahul had somehow managed to settle themselves near Virat without pushing Dev and Washy down.

"Umm...so, when are we beginning?" Harry asked confused. Well, he came here to dance and yeah, meet Virat too. But, mainly dance, why were others sitting so still?

"After finishing this tea," Virat said rolling his eyes. God, did Yuzi, Harry, and Shrey drink buckets of red bull or what?

"Oh!! Gimme too," Harry demanded watching everyone having tea cans.

Rahul threw one towards him and a tranquil silence engulfed all of them with the waves dancing on the tunes of their songs. Jassi, Kul, Dev and Washy were all but snuggling and half-sleeping on Virat.

Rahul was silently watching them while holding an animated eye conversation with Virat. A conversation solely based on boasting about himself. Manku was trying to stay still to let Nav and Shiv sleep while watching Virat and Rahul.

Harry, Yuzi and Shrey were giving all of them hurry the hell up looks.

"Why don't you speak about something?" Virat said when the hurry-up looks and silence stretched. But mainly, because of the hurry the hell up looks.

"Can..can I tell a ghost story," Harry jumped in, vibrating excitedly on his spot.

"No," the rest of them screamed together already, horrified. Ghost stories weren't accepted at all.

Harry still narrated the story unbothered by the rejection. The guys finished their iced tea hastily just to shut him up. Yuzi turned the volumes of songs again and then Harry started talking about ghost summoning songs. The Kids clutched Virat looking around like some ghost was about to actually jump on them.

After that, Virat should have known that none of the kids were leaving him anytime soon. He should have known all of them were totally planning to stay with him.
He should have absolutely known that he was going to be used as both pillow and teddy bear.
