DARKNESS.

Darkness surrounded me and I was running aimlessly, without stopping even for a second.  Someone was chasing me, and their footsteps were drawing near. I was looking for a place to hide myself, but the surroundings was dark, making it difficult to see anything around to help myself with. I tripped on something, and I fell on the ground. I tried getting up, but I was stuck between something. I was hyperventilating, and there was nothing that could calm me down. I was trying to bring my breathing back to normal, when I heard a voice.

I heard THE voice which I was too familiar with. The voice, which I can recognise anytime, anywhere. He was the nightmare of my life. He was the sole reason which made my life complicated and horrible to live. This was a voice, which I never intend to ever hear again. This voice, once made me happy, but the next second, it ruined me to pieces.

"Are you trying to run away girl? You know, you can never run away from me. Even if you try to hide, I'll find you and bring you back to me." The smirk in his voice made chills run down my body. The threat in his voice made me shuddered to the core.

"What the hell do you want from me?"

"You know what I want, girl. Don't try to run away."

"GET LOST  !!! You are never going to get what you want. THE HELL, if I bowed down in front of you. I would rather DIE than submit to YOU. "

"You will submit, girl. One day..."

"NO. NEVER. I'LL NEVER SUBMIT. NEVER..."

I heard someone shouting my name. I heard concern in the voice.  Someone was calling my name over and over again. I tried concentrating on that voice which was too familiar and too soothing for me.

"DIVYA... DIVYA GET UP !! GET UP BABY !! Come back to me. Baby it's just a nightmare. Come back. Open your eyes. "

My eyes flew open, and I found a horrified Aarav sitting right beside me, with my hands in his big ones. I was breathing heavily and when I looked at myself, I was sweating too much. Aarav mirrored my condition, with concern and pain all over his face. I brought my hands up to hold his face and brought it near mine.

Unconsciously, I brushed his lips with mine. I felt as if my body was being controlled by my emotions. I never felt this urge before but it felt as if, I didn't want this, I needed this for my survival. I was lost in the touch when I looked up to find Aarav stiff and tensed and maybe shocked too. I quickly backed away, realising the stunt that I pulled off just now. I was embarrassed at myself. The expression on his face made me regret my action. Tears started brimming, making everything blurry in front of me.
