Chapter 15: In his Arms...

"You are really crazy I swear" she repeated.

"Come let's go deep inside the sea" he suggested.

Saniya wouldn't agree to that, "No way, I am afraid to go beyond, it is better to stay here."

"Ok as you wish..." he said.

"You are so sweet," she said.

"Really!" he teased.

"Yeah, but somewhat crazy too!" she added.

"This is nothing; you haven't seen my craziness completely. Would you like to see it, do you want more fun?"

"Now what else is left?" she smiled.

"I will show you, come with me," he said.

Arjun took her near the 'Le water sports club' nearby, which is famous for its water-scooters fun. It was late in the night so all the water scooters were kept tied firmly, and there was no one on guard there. Arjun somehow managed to start one of those and asked Saniya to sit with him on the rear seat.

"No please, it's so dark now and I'm afraid of any such ride. I have never done such a sport before. It's my first time, so can we do it in the daylight..." she told him firmly.

"Hey just chill, I am there with you so don't worry. I will take care of everything, just take that beer bottle and sit at the back" Arjun told her.

Saniya had to agree with him, "ok then, but please ride very carefully", and Arjun assured her, "sure my dear".

Saniya sat with him, carrying beer in one hand. Arjun started off and reached far off in the sea and he stopped there. He then asked Saniya to celebrate the moment with the beer. She loved having a beer in the sea, and when she had finished it, he started riding back towards the shore.

It wasn't over yet as he went on and said, "We shall now have the ultimate fun? Are you ready?"

Saniya trusted him and said, "Yes my dear"

Arjun was riding the scooter at full speed now, tearing apart the waves and splashing waters. They got all wet and Saniya started shivering as it was quite chilled. She was frightened by the jerks as the scooter jumped upon the sea, but at the same time, she enjoyed the thrill of holding him tight.

Finally, she said, "Ok that is enough for today, can we go back now please?"

"Sure, as you say," he agreed and took her to the shore. He parked the scooter back in its place and then they were walking on the beach now, still talking.

Suddenly he again pulled her in the sea and she was shocked this time! "Oh my God, you have really gone crazy!!"

"Let's enjoy some more... " he said.

"No Arjun, the water is very chilled, can we please go now?"

"Ok dear," he said, much to her relief.

They had walked it up to the Calangute when Saniya accidentally stepped upon a piece of broken glass! "Oh no your toe is bleeding! Just sit down, let me check," Arjun was worried for her.

"It's a small cut don't worry, bleeding will stop soon, let me tie up the wound with my handkerchief," he said.

Saniya was in pain, "Arjun, please do it carefully, it is paining"

"Don't worry it will be alright" he helped her to stand up, but Saniya couldn't walk due to the pain.

"Don't worry, just relax. I will take you to your room; it's my responsibility to drop you safe at your hotel" he said to her.

"There is no conveyance available now, we have reached only till Calangute and my hotel is too far! Who will rent us a vehicle at 2 in the night?" Saniya was really worried.

Arjun smiled to comfort her, "Is it so? If I still drop you at your hotel room in a way that you don't feel this pain, what will you give me for it?"

"If you can do so, I will give you whatever you ask," Saniya replied.

"Are you sure?" he asked again, jovially.

"Yeah, but first you take me to my room safely. I am feeling very cold and it's paining also. I badly need some rest now" she explained her state.

"Fine, here you go my dear.........." he said and then lifted her in his arms. He carried her all the way through Calangute.

Saniya kept looking at Arjun with love all the time while he was carrying her. She also kissed him on his cheek to thank him.

"That was so sweet of you my dear" responded Arjun.

"I hope I am not very heavy to carry?" she said jokingly.

"Yeah, you are, but I am managing somehow, with difficulty though" he teased.

Finally, they reached Penny Street where her hotel was located, but Arjun was so heavily drunk that he could not find the building in the dark. Saniya was in her senses still and used her mobile flash to guide him the way. They now reached the Bluestar Hotel, Arjun still carried her in his arms, till he had reached her room, and then he placed her gently on a couch. He then examined the wound on her toe; the bleeding had stopped now. He asked for the first aid kit and dressed the wound, while she cried in pain.
