I think it's time for the hints to start coming out and the truth to be revealed! Within the next I believe 5-6 updates, most of the truth will be out in the open. So I know, I'm updating earlier than usual, but that's only because I have an exam today at 2pm! Ah! Only 4ish hours left! So I'll probably be preparing for my exam at my usual update time. Anyways, I hope you all like this update! Thanks again for the comments! <3

Chapter Twenty-Two – The Kiss

I slowly walked towards his room as I swallowed and attempted to put myself into a role I had no clue about. He claimed to know me, so I probably knew him…or at least I should know him. It was clear he had the wrong girl, but I needed to clarify it. I came to a stop in front of his doors and closed my eyes. You know who he is Madhu…you know who he is, I repeated that to myself at least twenty times before I opened my eyes and placed a confident look on my face. I knocked on his door with confidence this time, rather than hesitantly. I needed to make it seem real. There was no response on the other side again, so I did what I had done last time, despite his threats. I opened the door and walked in, closing the door behind myself to show him I had no intention of running. I saw him sitting at his desk with his face in his palms.

"RK…?"

He sighed and spoke into the palms of his hands.

"Why are you back so soon?"

"RK it's me…Madhu."

"I know that, I'm not dumb."

I decided to go with what he had almost said at the party that day, SHE'S MY…and then he had trailed off. I trusted my gut instinct and spoke.

"No. I'm your Madhu…"

I hit the jackpot. His head shot up instantly and he quickly got out of his chair as he turned to stare at me with wide eyes.

"What did you just say?"

I put on my most believable smile and repeated myself.

"I'm your Madhu…"

"Madhu?!"

He walked towards me and took my face in his hands. I let a few crocodile tears run and noticed him tearing up as well.

"Madhu? Madhu! I missed you…"

"I missed you too."

I had absolutely no idea what he was talking about. He was surely mistaken.

"You remember me Madhu? You really…?"

I nodded my head slowly and smiled up at him. Then for the first time, ever, I saw a smile cross his face. A sweet, innocent, genuine smile...unlike his usual evil, crooked smirk he always had on his face. His smile took my breath away. His dimples made him look adorable and for some odd reason, I didn't want his smile to disappear. I felt as though I had managed to take his pain away unknowingly…and I liked it. I unconsciously raised my hand and caressed the side of his face. He closed his eyes at my touch and lowered his hands to my waist. I kept my hand on the side of his face and watched as he snuggled into it slightly. Then he opened his eyes and stared at me passionately. I looked his face up and down but before I could say another word, his strong arms were around me, holding me as close as possible and his lips crashed onto mine. I went cold under the kiss for a second as shock struck me. But then my heart began to speed up as he continued to kiss me gently. Rather than wanting to pull away, I wanted to pull him closer. Butterflies began to flutter around in my stomach and my knees fell weak. Without being aware of it, I raised my hands and grabbed his hair, pulling him closer. The soft gentle kiss gradually turned into a deep passionate kiss. I felt us backing up and then my back hit the wall. I moaned under the kiss, which fired up RK even more. He kissed me roughly and I couldn't do anything but part my lips and let his demanding tongue through. He ran his hand down to the small of my back and pulled me closer as I ran my hands through his hair. I tried my best to keep up but RK was too fierce in his kisses as he devoured every inch of my mouth. Then suddenly, just as things were getting heated up, he pulled away. Alarmed, I looked up at him to only see him turn his back towards me.

"Control."

I heard him whisper to himself. I watched as he ran his hand through his hair and scratched the back of his head nervously. I listened for a moment as we both caught our breath and then decided to speak quietly.

"What's wrong…?"

I knew my whole purpose was to get answers out of him, but I also knew I didn't want to hurt him. He didn't respond to me and it took everything I had not to scream out who are you at him. I couldn't take away his pain and then give him more…not so soon. I kept my eyes on him but he didn't move.

"Leave."

He spoke sternly which caught me off guard. Had our kiss done nothing to him? Had he really just turned on his emotions in front of me and then turned them off after we kissed?

"RK?"

"Madhu, leave."

His stern voice was still present, though I noticed him attempting to add a sort of kind edge to his voice. I stared at him as I contemplated telling him the truth about how I had lied and I didn't remember him. After a moment of contemplation, I decided against it. I'd put up this act for a few more days and hopefully get answers out of him…even if it meant having to forget our kiss. I sighed and turned to leave. I felt his eyes on me as I walked towards the door. Just as I was about to step out of his room, he spoke.

"I know you lied."
