Neil had gotten ready a little early & was watching a movie on TV as he left the room to give Avni space while she got ready. It was almost time for them to leave & Neil actually had some notes to complete once they came back from the dinner. Huffing, he knocked at the door of their room before entering.

Just like he knew that sun rises from East, he had always known that Avni was beautiful - ethereal even! But watching her standing in front of his dressing in a small black dress with her hair cascading down her back while she tried to fix her earrings was a whole different beautiful & ethereal. His movements stopped in their track as his eyes fixated on her. He had mocked her for eye-fucking him but the truth was that he was no different. His fingers itched to touch her as much as his mind wanted to rile her up by throwing some random jibes at her. The woman just knew how to mess with him!

A (smirks) - I know you're busy eye-fucking me but be of some use & help me with this zip. Mom is not home, so- uh, help me! - she finished while rushing at the end. 

Neil just nodded as he slowly walked up to her & stood behind her. She could look at his reflection in the mirror & their eyes locked with each others' there. Still maintaining eye-contact, Neil brushed her hair away from her back as he pushed them to the side of her shoulder. Her heart caught up speed as he finally looked at her back & his finger tips brushed against her skin when he fiddled with the zip in order to fix it. 

N - Mehta, it's stuck! I think I'll have to use my teeth. Do you want Mom to come back? - he asked as he still tried to close the zip. 

A - Sricha just texted me that she has already reached. And, Mom will take at least an hour to come back! - she said as a frown marred her face. 

N - Is it okay if I do it? Will you be okay? - he spoke while looking at her through the mirror. 

Avni looked back at him & in that moment, she could only see pure unadulterated innocence in his eyes. The fact that he was making sure that she was comfortable even when he had no business doing it, made her heart skip a beat. She nodded as she kept looking at him through the mirror. 

Neil slowly held the top open ends of her dress with his one hand as he bent a little to reach her zip. He took it in between his teeth & gave it a soft tug. The thing was still stuck! He let out a exasperated sigh as he wrapped the zip around his mouth & tugged it again, a little harder this time. 

Avni gripped the corner of the dressing in her palms as she felt him breathe on her back. His teeth grazed the skin of her bare back slightly as he tried to enclose the zip and Avni could feel goosebumps all over her back as her breathing became a little erratic. She tried to calm herself down by thinking of others things - as the fact that they were getting late & about the report that she had to submit to her boss tomorrow. However, the tension was too much to handle. Avni could only breathe when he took a step back from her & looked at her through the mirror while she looked back. 

N - It's done. I, um, I am outside. You take your time. - he spoke & rushed out the room while she just looked at his retreating figure.    

God! Why am I being so horny? - she wondered as she quickly set her hair & moved out of the room.

Avni was a bit surprised at how smooth the dinner was going. She was genuinely happy to catch up with her friends after so long & all the wariness she had about Neil had dissolved in thin air. She noted that he was a charmer & she also observed that he could actually be decent when he was around people. Guess, she was the only one who got to see the annoying side of him!
