Entwined:
Chapter-6:
The dull dark corridor of the hospital saw a lone figure walking along with swift, hindering steps towards the object of his thoughts. His eye-brows were in a constant frown, his eyes looked tortured and his days-old stubble was rigid yet made his face spunky, as he took long strides to finally face the room of his destination. The reception was made aware of his invasion, the attendants were influenced and ensured to be absent, the lights of the particular corridor remained dim"he looked around the place satisfied with his efforts as he finally stepped into the room of Khushi Kumari Gupta.
He walked towards her bed with slow apprehensive steps, his initial conviction as little as it was, now fading away and he stood rooted to his place observing the petite figure on the bed, looking exquisitely fragile. He closed his eyes for a brief moment to get over the apprehension and stick to his initial decision as he found himself taking another step towards her. He noticed her eyes fixed to the ceiling above, her hair brushing her shoulders, her hands recently toned and were fixed to her sides, her long legs, exposed by the gown ending at her knees, her toes rigid and her stance as close to a dead person as it could get. He then heard the sounds of the machines attached to her"the beep sounds-- indicating her heartbeat and his conviction increased a little as he finally took one last step reaching her.
Reluctantly, he hovered over her as he looked into her eyes which looked past him into the distant. His reluctance increased as he placed his one knee on the bed beside her hand and hovered over her more, his face now straight above hers and inches away. He searched for her eyes as if a reflex action but just as he expected, all in vain. He brought his one hand and supported himself to lean above her completely. He squeezed his eyes shut as he angled his head, leaning over her more and he sucked at the place between her neck and her jaw. Arnav looked up instantly, a sudden wave of pleasure filling his lungs as he inhaled her raw innate cologne and his gut twisted with an unsolicited wave of desire. He looked down, consciously registering the proximity and looked back into her eyes when a torment of guilt hit him while processing her rigid helpless unaffected stance. He observed her face with his angled head still leaning above her petite form that looked straight up ahead of him, rigid and impassive. He roamed his eyes all over her face as a wave of emotions engulfed the place of his chest and he felt himself falling into an unknown pit of tangled uncertainty. Sighing, he rested his head at the tip of her shoulder mould, which more seemed like an involuntary action and as moments passed by-- his ears caught the fluctuating beep-sounds of the machines attached to her.
His determination resumed, his plan of action was recalled as an instant reaction, while he lifted his head in one swift moment to observe her eyes. Blank. His breathing became heavy as an unknown stubborn determination to bring her back overpowered everything else in his mind. He lifted himself to settle above her again supported by his palms on her either side as he just stared at her distant eyes. With his determined gaze, he swooped down again, sucked at her jaw once, bit her neck a little, brushed his stubble all over her tender spot below her neck, pressed his chest to that of hers, as the now familiar aura of her continued to tortured him, evoking his desires in such inexplicable way, his breathing rapidly increased and he felt his manhood erecting. He never knew a mere almost dead, unaffected, non-reactive person could do this to him and he found himself drowning down, deep into a torturous turmoil. The desire combined with determination consumed him irresistibly and he found himself trailing luscious kisses down her throat, his eyes observing hers for any kind of reaction, his hands caressing all her private areas, his lips finding their way lower into the rim of her gown at her neck, even as his mind dreaded her reaction.
His hands reached the buttons of her gown, unsealing the opening one by one and then it happened. Her pupils moved while her almost paralyzed body stayed still; his insides broke into a loud inaudible thunder and the anxiety instantly turned into something else as soon as her eyes met his filled with anguish, the slight red coloring of her retina, the loathing, the fright that mixed with plead"he was astonished with himself for having noticed so much with just a mere eye-movement and it only made him relentless for more as the human need would have it. He held her horrified gaze and tried giving her what seemed like an evil look, trying to continue with his initial plan of action and his lips substituted his hands; her rosy little mounts finally revealing themselves, making him suck at them instantly finding his own erection unaffected by his mind, as he rocked front and forth-- keeping his gaze on her refusing pupils that seemed to be constantly moving like a pendulum, as her aghast eyes turning into the dangerous color of red representing her state of mind while he continued the process of what can only be called as an assault. His hand on its own accord glided down her waist, finding a place in between her legs as his own finger started caressing the tender spot. And then he had seen it, the sudden animosity rising in her eyes and he could finally feel his self loathing task paying off. His lips shifted in-between her breasts, sucking, biting, continuing the assault when he finally heard it"her scream. Her rather loud scream"her voice finally finding air, she screamed like her life was at stake in that particular moment"the mere sound enough to scare the wits out of the calm vicinity.
It made him jerk back, off her instantly causing him to lose balance and fall off the bed, pushing away the saline equipment in his process of stumbling and the next thing he knew, he was laying flat on the floor when mid-night staff gathering in the room along with a horrified Angad. The room broke into a sudden rush of activities, the group of female doctors surrounding her, Angad testing her whilst glancing back at him, as he helped himself up, machines being used on her, the buzzing sounds, the multiple conversations, the soothing words of nurses whispered into her ears--- but everything was dozing out of his mind, every other vision and every other sound zoomed out of his senses, all he knew, all he saw was her eyes, that looked right back at him with anguish, resentment, loathing and hatred. Her body still stayed still, but he now knew she talked, she acknowledged, she responded, yet her eyes held his, with such strong hatred, he felt his inner world collapsing into pieces that can never be put together"why he ever wanted anything to be put together is right now beyond the mighty brain of Arnav singh Raizada.
That night something broke between these entwined souls. Arnav managed to earn a place in Khushi's dismantled heart and that place couldn't be named anything but hatred. That night, Arnav loathed his own actions and more so, he hated his sudden desire towards someone he hardly knew-- a desire out of something so unaffected, so unresponsive form"it stumped him completely off his own guards and for several moments he dint quite know what was happening with him or what he had been doing all these days and for what? The desire which was far unplanned had only added to his self agitation. And the look in her eyes urged him to dissolve himself into the ground. They gazed at each other for several undetermined moments before Arnav realized his terrific situation and stomped out of the room, not being able to stand at the receiving end of her wrath any longer.
