Destined to be together

Chapter 35 - Huh? (E)

***Amogha's P.O.V***

"I...I..don't....I don't like you. So what's the p..point..of continuing..this marriage?" I managed to say. Damn he looks intimidating and his breath fanning my face and neck isn't helping at all!

"You don't like me?" Sid asked, his voice now sounding hurt too! I looked down, unable to meet his eyes and nodded my head. He left a deep sigh...

"Look up at me, look into my eyes and tell me that you don't like me" Sid said softly, while he pressed his body onto mine. Damn he's making me go weak?!!

I can't look into his eyes! I can't do this.

"I know you love that ex of yours - Samira. It is all fine with me Sidharth. I don't want to come in between lovers. I will divorce you so you can be with her without carrying the guilt of this marriage" I said, still not looking up at him.

But Sid always gets his way! He lifted my chin using his thumb and index finger and made me look at him. I closed my eyes, but opened them when I felt the soft feel of his lips on my eyelids and his warm breath fanning my face.

"Now, who told you that I love that bitch?" Sid asked, his voice slightly raised, his right eyebrow raised. His eyes still showing hurt and anger.

"I have seen it Sid...the way you both....you ditched me for her, you went with her for lunch, you got so intimate with her and I even have a pic of you both...being..intimate" I said as tears pooled in my eyes.

"What?" he snapped and I could sense the anger emanating from his eyes.

"Yes Sid I have a picture of you both being intimately close with each other. You're the one sleeping around with your ex but you blame me to be cheating on you" I said as tears spilled from my eyes. I didn't bother to wipe them anyways!

Sid's expression softened as he wiped the tears from my face, but he became stern again as he asked "Picture? What picture? What are you talking about?"

"You don't have to hide it Sid, I know you are a man and you have needs! I know that when you'd gone to Pune, you got back with Samira....it's not cheating because we both know that we don't have any feelings for eachother. The divorce is to help you get back to her, without the fear of me coming in-between., and in any case, this is a love-less marriage; a marriage where the two people involved have no feelings for each other!" I said, controlling my tears.

It does hurt to tell the man I love that I don't have any feelings for him! But I must do it...for his happiness!

I expected Sid to agree or say things like 'oh thanks for the offer' but I never expected him to laugh. There he is, standing in front of me, still caging me between himself and the wall and laughing heartily! What amused him so much?

"What's so funny?" I asked him, bewildered. He still continued laughing while I started getting irritated of his behavior. After what seemed like ages, Sid stopped laughing, wiped the tears of laughter from his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Forget what happened in the past, but even after what happened at the elevator today, how can you still say that there's no feelings between us?" Sid asked, amusement clear in his voice, and then he chuckled again.

Now that statement was a cue for me to blush - of course, I did initiate that passionate kiss!!

Composing myself, and trying hard not to blush anymore, I said "Well, it could have been the heat of the moment, couldn't it?"

"Well, it could be. But we've kissed so many times before, and not all of them occurred due to the heat of the moment, right? Not once did you try to push me away Amogha! You even initiated a few of our kisses, remember?" Sid said, running my lower lip with his thumb and I blushed again. Dammit!
