Shanaya's POV:

"Khush raho beta." Some Aunty named Shehnaz blessed me, I smiled politely as she hugged me and finally left the house. Finally the small yet long function was over. It was around 11:00 pm and saying that I was tired will be an understatement. I looked at Hussain's mom and dad when they came upto me. Uncle smiled and said good night, while Anuty walked me to my room. I kept glancing around though. Hussain had gone out since one hour, saying he is going with some friends. He hasn't came back yet. Aunty stared at me and then smiled.

"Looking for Hussain?" She asked and I smiled slightly.

"He had went for an hour now." I said and she nodded. I entered my room while she stood near the door.

"Beta woh ajaye ga. Usey us ke friends thora late hi chore ge.. You should rest a little." Aunty said and I nodded. I definitely should rest. My feet hurt really bad!

"Good night bacha." Anuty kissed my forehead and left. I throw my white veil aside on the table and sat on the bed before lying down completely, I am hungry my inner voice said. I sighed when my body relaxed a little. I should eat something first but I am so tired. I closed my eyes, trying to sleep but sleep dint came, but the reason wasn't my hunger but my worry about Hussain.

I looked at the clock. It was 11:30pm now. Why hasn't Hussain came back yet? He shouldn't be staying out this late. I slowly sat up in the bed, maybe I should eat something. I stood up and went down the stairs into living hall. Lights were really dim but at least I can see where I am going. If I switched on the lights someone will wake up and that will be rude. I just started walking towards kitchen when suddenly the dim lights went off leaving me in utter darkness.

Did I ever mentioned I am scared of dark? Well...I am!

I gulped and tried moving back, all the desire for food left me. I should just get to my room. Darkness around me is so thick that I can't see a thing. Electricity has gone. Suddenly I heard footsteps from a far and my heart skipped a beat. It must be Uncle, Aunty... I assured myself. I felt stairs near my foot. I hold the stand and quitely started walking upstairs. Footsteps coming closer to me. I started climbing fastly! Bhooth! kidnapper! Serial killer! Run!! My scared mind screamed and my breaths became uneven.

I ran upstairs and struggled to open my door with my trembling hands. Just as I opened my door someone grabbed my waist, picking me half up in the air.

"Ahhhh!" I screamed in horror as he started laughing. I know this voice! My consciousness said but I ignored it and screamed for my life. He kept his hand on my mouth and walked into our room, Shutting the door with his leg.

"Shhhh yar!" Hussain whispered, his breath on behind of my neck and I froze. My both hands were on hus arm that was wrapped around my waist, while he had pinned me to himself. He did this? He? He! Ugh!

"Stop screaming Shanaya, its me." He laughed and released me. I turned around, it's still really dark and I can't see anything but anyways I hit him. Hard, On his chest with my hands in fists.  He laughed harder.

This isn't funny!

"You gave me heart attack!" I yelled and he just laughed harder. I kept hitting him on the chest and arms, left and right but the way he kept laughing looked like it definitely dint hurt!

"Stop!" He said still laughing and moving away.

"First you stop laughing!" I demanded, he gave me heart attack and he is finding this so amusing! I was about to hit again when he hold my wrists in his hands in a swift move. I furrowned, How can he even do that in this darkness, when I can barely see his dark figure only.

"Sorry." He whispered and his warm breath fanned my face. I still can't see him and that's why I dint felt him coming close. I shivered as he released my hands, his chest touching back of my hands indicating he is close to me. Too close.

I nervously took a step back and this time I felt him taking a step closer. I gulped and took two steps back, he took two steps closer. Okay...what is happening here?

"Hussain." I said taking a step back and my back hit the wall behind me, telling me I can't go any further back. I felt Hussain's placing his hand on the wall at right side of my head, as he leaned in slightly.

"I am right here." He replied, his breaths fanned my cheek and my heart stopped. His voice deeper than usual. I shivered I felt him leaning towards me again.

"W-what are you d-doing?" I stammered, scared of his actions. What is he even thinking. He said I can trust me. His hand touched back of my left hand which was on my side and I shuddered again. His hand slide up my arm and I gasped. What is he doing. This is- I have to stop him!

"Huss-" I tried but he cut me off.

"Sshhh..." he sushed me as his hand reached upto my shoulder. His fingers touched my bare neck and my hands raised themselves to his chest. I was ready to push him, But just then he pulled his hand away and hold my hands on his chest. I blinked in darkness. I can't see anything but I felt his deep breaths, his chest moving up and down deeply beneath my hands. He took in  a sharp breath and I stared at his dark figure, with my widened eyes.

"Sorry." He whispered and removed his hands from above my hands. He walked backwards and I released the breath I was holding. Once far away he turned around. Darkness dint help me seeing anything still.

I heard him cursing under his breath and just then bright lights blinded me. I shut my eyes as my eyes burned for staying so long in darkness. When I opened my eyes I saw washroom door closing. I hold the dressing table and took deep breaths. I ran my hand through my hair. Sweat dropped on my forehead. I kept my hand on my heart. Staring at myself in the mirror I saw a scared girl. I suck in a sharp breath and ran a hand down my face. I wiped the sweat on my forehead and looked left and right. Hussain was still in washroom and I don't think I can face him. I don't want to face him. I quickly slipped in the bed and covered myself with the blanket. Closing my eyes shut I prayed he won't come back anytime soon. I plead the sleep to come but it refused to come. Only one feeling could be felt. Fear. I don't get it. Why did he.... he behaved like that. What...

What just happened?!
