I'll leave you with the memory and the aftertaste.
Arnav entered his house with a light heart. Tonight was not like his usual nights. This party had not only given him his high but also his escape which once used to be the same thing.
As he was about to climb the stairs to his room he heard some yelling coming from the common hall. Knowing it was noting different from the usual he sighed heavily and climbed the stairs two step a time.
Quickly undressing himself, he slid into the bed only in his boxers. Arnav was never the person to reflect on his actions and he had his past to bear witness. All that he had done in the last 4 years was too vivid to even visit in his memories.
The worst memory of his was when he almost died due to one of his reckless rendezvous. He clearly remembers that it was since that night onward that his parents forgot to see eye to eye. They were a loving family, who had dinner together every night and celebrated holidays by going on vacations cross-countries. That was the only time when Arnav had not felt alone. But now, even after being surrounded by all his friends, his parents and his money, he still felt utterly abandoned. You could say he had abandonment issues.
While he was lying in the bed, he thought of the hazel eyes that had captivated him for the entirety of tonight. Those black hair and that fiery mouth. The way her sharp tongue protected her innocent was both amusing and refreshing.
Innocent. That's exactly what he wasn't. And in that strikingly painful moment, Arnav realized that what he had today was the taste of the sweet he could never have. Above all the things in his life he had fought and was fighting, his demons stood tall, lurking in the shadows ready to grab him and bring him down.
He knew that he wasn't the same innocent boy who would kiss his mother before leaving house and would give a tender smile when she said "Be safe". That boy was long gone. He was now buried under the corpses of all his mistakes. And he would be damned if he let another soul get destroyed due to his.
Khushi was to stay away from him. It was true what she said the first. She does not need to know who he is or what he is. Because once you get sucked in the wreck that is Arnav Singh Raizada's life, there is no turning back.
With a new promise to save an innocent, wide-eyed girl from the beast he had made himself to be, that night Arnav slept with all his feelings sucked in to start a new day with a faced he has been playing for 4 long years. For a reason that is trapped inside the four walls of the Raizada mansion. And that way, shall it be.

Khushi had a big house, an expensive car and a loving family. Which only grew closer as the years passed. Like any other twin sister, khushi took upon herself to wake her baby brother, by a few minutes, for school. He wasn't a baby anymore but for khushi he will forever remain a child whom she would love unconditionally over all his flaws.
"Ad. Get up boy." Khushi stroked Adin's forehead softly.
"Go away." Adin groaned in a muffled voice through his pillow.
""You have school today,Bee" She was losing her patience quickly.
"Like I care" He huffed turning away from her.
"If you don't get up from the bed before I count to ten, all your video games would never find their way back to the console." Khushi patted herself of thinking of such a genius blackmail that Adin would never deny. And like clockwork, he was out of bed, glaring and grumbling, even before she had started the count.
Khushi shoved him towards his bathroom and kissed his cheek making him grimace and rub his face.
"ewww" He dragged out.
"Shut up." Khushi chuckled and handed him his towel.
"See you downstairs!" Khushi exclaimed ruffling his hair and running downstairs before he could say anything but heard his groaning before slamming the bathroom door shut.
Khushi and Adin had always been extremely protective of each other. Being as close as they are, they both knew everything about each other. But after all these years of secret-free, honest relationship, Khushi was sweating with only the thought of telling him about her encounter with the school douces and the Badboy. She knew Adin will lose all his shits over knowing about them. Especially what they had tried to do to her at the party.
Khushi didn't even want to go to that party but Adin begged for her to come with him and she couldn't refuse. Adin and her were quite opposite while they were similar.
Adin was the chocolate boy of the school with his boyish charm and fit body. Adin was also sporty seeing as he was on the school football team. While khushi was a nobody, Adin rocked the school along with his other friends and teammates.
Even after being on the singing team, khushi failed to bring any attention towards her and she would like to keep it that way.
But now realizing that she had caught the eye of the badboy, keeping out of attention was now a faraway dream. She could now only dread the days to come because for sure, her life was going to spiral off its hinges.
