Chapter Text
It was movie night at Rajasthan Royals camp at the covid affected IPL2020. Since there were limited options for teams to bond outside of the camp,such movie nights were mandatory for everyone to attend.
While Yashasvi started at a corner of the room with Sanju sitting on the centre couch, by the time they were halfway through the movie, Yash was already seated beside Sanju. "Sona hai. I feel ao tired", he said to his secret boyfriend.
"Tu ja room mein. I will tell coach that you were sleepy", Sanju said.
"I can't sleep alone. Aa jao na", Yash requested with his puppy face.
"Abhi nahi, Yashi. It won't look nice if both of us leave. You keep your head on my shoulder and sleep. I will wake you up when it's over", Sanju replied.
Yash, initially just leaned his head on Sanju's shoulder. But gradually he had almost half his body wrapped around Sanju. By the time the movie got over the rest of the team saw the baby of the team sleeping on his mentor's lap.
"So gaya? Wake him up or else he will complain of back pain tomorrow,"said the batting coach.
"Yash, uth ja baccha. We need to get back to our room,"said Sanju.
"Nahi na chetta", said Yash, before getting Sanju to keep his palm on his chest- a gesture Yash had gotten used to, to calm himself in sleep.
"Jaana, we are not in our room. Please wake up. Everyone is staring at us", Sanju whispered in Yash's ears.
Yash opened his eyes and saw the position he was in and turned pink. He tried to rush and move out of Sanju's lap and almost fell down from from the couch. "Jaana", Sanju shouted, trying to hold on to Yash, to prevent the fall. It was Sanju's turn to blush then.
"Congratulations are in order, I guess", said Sangakkara, thumping Sanju's back.
"It wasn't meant to be revealed, Sanga Sir. We just got together and are still exploring where we are going with this. It would be great if you can keep it under wraps for now", Sanju requested. All the while he had a tight grip on Yash's waist to keep him from falling off again.
"No worries, Sanju. As long as you guys stay professional on the field, this is not something I am worried about. Knowing yours and Jaiswal's work ethic, I know neither of you would allow this to affect your game. So carry on- you guys remind me a lot of myself and Mahela. You can officially inform us when the two of you are ready. You can trust all of us here to keep your secret", Sanga replied.
"And that, my kids, is how your Papa's love for sleep, revealed our relationship to the whole RR team. Thankfully they were all very supportive. That management team was the first set of people who got invited for our actual wedding"said Sanju to his kids, Saanvi and Yohan.
"And also the reason why Uncle Sanga and Uncle Mahela are your god-parents", added Yash, indicating their son, Yohan.
