Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 626: Drunk Noor

At half-past six, in the evening,

By the time Ivan and Arna reached with a lot more ingredients and requirements for the night, Naira, Rooney, and Jasmine were placing the woods for campfire and arranging to sit and the main couple had started grilling.

The five sat and watched the couple. Arsh was still the same while Noor's giggles were reaching their every ear now and then.

Jasmine munched on the snack as she commented, "Brother Nemo is a lot like Uncle Alan." Both show no emotions other than anger.

Rooney hummed while Arna questioned as she leaned on Ivan who was sitting next to her, "I had thought bro will have to change for Noor. He looks so serious, what is making her smile?"

Naira was sipping her detox juice watching her sister. If she had seen this scene a few days before she would have really thought Noor was trying to steal Arsh from her. Noor who used to silently, calmly follow Arsh was different from the one who was enjoying Arsh's company.

"Why do I feel Noor liked Arsh for a long time?" One couldn't be so close in just a day or two. Naira turned to Rooney as Arna was away from them for many years and Ivan had only seen Noor with Arsh, "I think she never thought about this dating, relationship, or love. Seeing Arsh always strict, she might have never tried to know her own feelings for him."

Everyone shrugged at her words as Noor never spent much time with them, except Rooney. So all turned to Rooney. The latter wasn't sure if Noor liked Arsh, but gave his opinion as per his analysis after hearing Naira.

"Noor indeed never thought of a relationship. She always kept a single focus. Study or work. We had to get rid of her admirers and the dumb-headed wasn't even understanding when somebody was showing interest in dating her Like all men were nonexistent to her." He was baffled by his own words.

The rest looked at each other and burst into laughter. It was hard to believe so they decided to let the couple mend themselves.

Noor looked at the ones who were laughing. Curious, she wanted to join them, so she turned to Arsh with her hand pointing at the group. She wanted to say, 'I will just come.' but Arsh spoke, flipping the fist on the grill, "Are you so eager to get teased?"

Noor remembered she had asked Rooney to join their date and that would be known to everyone by now. So she sheepishly grinned looking at Arsh hiding his smirk. She changed her decision immediately, "Since you are alone, I will help you." She didn't want to get into the hands of a teasing group who could make her embarrassed all night. She had no plans to look like a cooked lobster.

Even though their conversation was very simple, unlike flirting with each other, Noor was slowly easing herself with Arsh and the latter unknowingly spoke more than usual and even laughed with her.

The group who had assumed Arsh was going to serve everyone was flabbergasted when he carried two servings and Noor skipped next to him pointing which flavor fish she wanted.

"Bro, for me?" Arna lifted her hand making the puppy face, trying to melt her brother.

Arsh sat down on the floor cushion with Noor as he kept the plate between them, "Oh That face will work on Ivan only."

Arna: "..."

Jasmine and Rooney looked at each other and quickly ran over to grill their fish, Arna and Ivan stood up as there was only one grill and it would take up time, "You little brats, make way for us"

Flabbergasted, Naira pointed at herself, "D-did you guys leave me alone?"

Noor chuckled as she pushed a plate next to her sister, "Sis, your favorite barbeque grilled fish."

Naira was planning to get herself one, she wasn't surprised Noor thought of her. Arna waved her hand, "Come on, let's grill quickly."

They were late to understand, despite being there with Noor and Arsh, those two were separate from them, having their own time. 

Ivan, who tasted his fish, looked at the couple. Noor was pouting while fighting for the fish on the plate with Arsh. Ivan understood why they were present. It was just to keep Noor's nerves calm without thinking she was alone with Arsh late in the night, at an isolated villa far away from the city.

"Arsh Morgan, you are truly cunning." He mumbled grumpily about being used by his friend. He shrugged it off as they were having fun too.

Eating, drinking, music, and dancing, it had crossed eleven in the night. Jasmine had dozed off lying her head on Rooney's lap. Instead of drinking, Ivan was busy stopping Arna from getting drunk again. Naira was flushed with a few drinks, yawning repeatedly, being sleepy.

Drunk Noor, cupped her face and was giggling nonstop watching Ivan and Arna. "You guys are so cute together." She exclaimed.

Arna puffed her fake angry cheeks, losing another bottle to Ivan's hands before hearing her. She was in clear senses so started questioning Noor, "Noor, come here." 

However, Arsh glared at his sister, without letting Noor obey Arna's order. Being extremely obedient, Noor listened to Arsh. Arna controlled and scolded Arsh and changed her questions to Noor, "Noor, do you hate Arsh?"

Noor followed Arna's pointed finger. Then she shook her head adorably.

Arna wanted to hear something funny so she tried again, "Don't tell me you like Arsh?" 

Arna's didn't point her finger so Noor uttered the name trying to remember the person, "Arsh!?" Arna nodded vigorously. As she quickly pointed at Arsh.

Noor turned to Arsh in a slow-motion that made Rooney, Ivan, Arna anticipated to their bones. Arsh was speechless. He wanted to stop them from playing with drunk Noor but Noor shifted close to him, suddenly.

Arsh almost jerked but held his cool. Noor was drunk so he didn't want her to do anything that would make her cry in the morning.

Rooney and Arna looked at each other. In tacit agreement, both started saying in chorus, "Kiss Kiss Kiss" 

Ivan was puzzled if he should support his crazy fiancee or behave like a gentleman. 

Arsh was baffled when Noor smiled at their words while looking at him intently. He wanted to beat his brother and sister.
