Shubman Gill had a problem.

No, scratch that.

Shubman Gill was the problem, according to Ishan Kishan.

Because who told this man to be six years older, six inches taller, and six times more mature?

And phir bhi he had the audacity to act like Ishan’s full-time babysitter instead of his boyfriend.

It was a normal morning in their apartment, except for the fact that Ishan had just declared war.

Ishan  : Shubiii

Said while entering the kitchen dramatically.

Ishan : Khana ready hai ya aaj bhi mujhe bhookha maarne ka plan hai?

Shubman, standing at the stove, barely spared him a glance.

Shubman : It’ll be done in five minutes, stop acting like a bichhda hua aatma.

Ishan : I am a bichhda hua aatma, because my own boyfriend doesn’t care about me!!

Ishan huffed, plopping onto the counter.

Ishan :  Pata hai? Rahul bhai ne Athiya bhabhi ke liye subah-subah pancakes banaye. Aur tu?

Shubman turned off the stove and crossed his arms.

Shubman : Tu mujhe Rahul bhai se compare kar raha hai? Unki shaadi hui hai, Ishan. Hum log shaadi shuda nahi hai.

Ishan : Toh kya tu shaadi shuda logon se kam pyaar karta hai mujhe?

Shubman : Pyaar ki kadar tab hoti jab tu subah jaldi uthta aur help karta.

Ishan : -yeh kya baat hui, maine boyfriend liya tha, tu to full maa nikla!!

Shubman sighed, shaking his head as he placed the food on the table.

Shubman : Aa ja, nautanki. Kha le, warna phir bhookh se marega aur blame mujhe karega.

Ishan, jumped down, grinning : Exactly, ab samajh raha hai tu.

Post breakfast, Ishan was bored.

Which, for Shubman, meant disaster.

Ishan : Shubi

Ishan called sweetly from the couch where he was lying upside down.

Shubman : Hmm?

Ishan : I’m bored.

Shubman, typing away on his laptop, didn’t even look up.

Shubman : Tera koi bhi shauk normal nahi hai, toh mujhe koi interest nahi hai.

Ishan, sat up, fake-offended:

Excuse me? I have normal hobbies.

Shubman finally looked at him with a raised brow.

Shubman : Haan? Bata.

Ishan started counting on his fingers.

Ishan : Netflix dekhna, shopping karna, logon ka dimaag khana, galiyaan dena, tujhse chhoti-chhoti baaton pe ladna-

Shubman, sighed : Aur main soch raha tha shayad tu gym jaana, meditation karna, reading jaise normal cheezein bolega.

Ishan, blinked :  Bhai tu boyfriend hai ya Baba Ramdev ka secret student?

Shubman, rolled his eyes : Mujhe kaam karna hai, ja apna kuch kar.

Ishan, obviously, did not listen. Instead, he threw his legs over Shubman’s lap, making himself comfortable.

Shubman : Mujhe tere saath time spend karna hai.

Shubman sighed but didn’t push him away.

Shubman : Ishan…

Ishan : Shubu…

Shubman, gave him a look:  Tu mujhe kaam karne dega ya nahi?

Ishan dramatically placed a hand over his heart.

Ishan : Tu kitna be-dil hai, Shubu. Mera bas chale na, toh tujhe ek dil transplant karwa ke dunga.

Shubman pinched the bridge of his nose.

Shubman : Baccha, jaa please.

Ishan : Baccha? Ohh, toh ab tu officially maan raha hai ki tu mujhse bada hai?

Shubman sighed in defeat.

Shubman : Bada hi nahi, tujhse zyada samajhdar bhi hoon.

Ishan : Haan haan, samajhdar toh Modi ji bhi hain, par main unko bhi Prime Minister nahi manta.

Shubman, gave him a blank stare :.....yeh analogy mujhe samajhne ka koi shauk nahi hai.

Ishan : Isliye toh kehta hoon, pyaar bhari zindagi jeeye, Baba Gill.

Shubman : Yeh baccha mujhe maar hi daalega.

Ishan had one mission today to annoy Shubman until he got attention.

And since Shubman was in a serious meeting on his laptop, Ishan saw this as the perfect opportunity.

He plopped down beside Shubman, resting his chin on his shoulder.

Ishan : Shubiii....

Shubman, didn’t look away from the screen : Haan?

Ishan : Main bore ho raha hoon.

Shubman : Hmm.

Ishan : Bas ‘hmm’? Tera boyfriend tujhe bata raha hai ki woh bore ho raha hai aur tu bas ‘hmm’ keh raha hai?

Shubman, finally turned to look at him : Kya chahta hai?

Ishan : Attention.

Shubman *sighed*: Ishan, yeh important meeting hai.

Ishan : meeting mujhese jayda important hai?

Shubman, closed his eyes for patience: Tu kitna drama karta hai.

Ishan : Dekh

Ishan said, crossing his arms.

Ishan : Tera kaam tujhse important hai, samajh gaya main. Magar main tujhe ek cheez bata doon?

Shubman, raised an eyebrow.: Kya?

Ishan : Jis din maine kisi aur se attention lena shuru kiya na, us din pachtaayega tu.

Ishan smirked and got up, walking off like some tragic Bollywood hero.

Shubman just stared after him.

"Yeh baccha mujhe pagal kar dega."

Later that evening, Ishan, true to his words, decided to put his plan into action.

He was scrolling through his phone when he spotted Rohan, an old friend.

They used to flirt for fun, nothing serious, but Shubman didn’t know that.

Perfect.

He walked into the living room and made sure to laugh extra loudly while texting.

Ishan : Haye, Rohan tu bhi na, bada hi naughty hai!!

Shubman, sitting on the couch, froze.

His eyes flickered toward Ishan.

Shubman : Kaun Rohan?

Ishan : Ek dost hai, bohot funny hai. Pura din mujhe hasaata rehta hai.

Shubman’s jaw clenched.

Shubman : Oh.

Ishan : Aur pata hai, usne mujhe bola ki main bohot cute lagta hoon.

Shubman’s grip tightened around his phone : Haan?

Ishan : Haan, aur usne pucha ki main single hoon ya-

Before Ishan could finish, Shubman snatched his phone and tossed it on the couch.

Ishan : Abe Oye!!

Shubman, leaned in, eyes dark : Tujhe koi aur ‘cute’ bolega, mujhe pasand nahi hai.

Ishan blinked, biting back a grin.

Ishan : Accha? Kyun?

Shubman stared at him, voice low.

Shubman : Kyunki tu sirf mera hai.

Ishan gulped.

Butterflies?  bhai, poora butterfly park uda raha tha pet mein.

Shubman gently gripped his chin.

Shubman : Samjha?

Ishan, still processing, whispered : Samjha, Baba Gill.

Shubman *smirked* : Good.

He pulled Ishan in and kissed him... slow and possessive.

Ishan’s mind? Error 404.

Maybe teasing Shubman wasn’t always the best idea… but yeh jealous wala pyaar bhi kuch alag hi level ka tha.
