Chapter-20

*Manvi's POV*

I took deep breaths to try and calm myself down. We were currently in the limo on our way to the interview where Virat was going to tell the world we were together, possibly sending the female population to lose their minds.

Yup, no pressure there. At least it was Karan Johar...he was pretty cool. He'd probably make everything seem like a joke. That calmed me down a bit... but of course my brain just couldn't let me relax for a second.

The fans will most probably hate you...

They'll send you death threats...

They'll make up rumors...

They'll try to tear you and Virat apart...

No more privacy...

No more going to the caf in the morning...

No more taking walks at evening...

No more going anywhere without paparazzi trailing behind you...

Was I really ready for that? Giving up my privacy and god knows what else? Receiving hate and death threats? Being hated by 'fans'? Was I?

I had a choice...I could either face my fears or go public...or I could walk out right now.

Go back home. Break up with Virat. No more fears. No more worries.

I could do that... but I wont. Because I love Virat. I love him more than anything in the world. And I was ready to fight for our relationship. I was ready for everything as long as Virat was at my side.

I may have to give up a lot but losing Virat is really the only thing that might break me. I cant handle that. I will go through everything to be with Virat. I was ready for this.

Virat must of sensed that I was still a little worried because he grabbed both my hands in his big soft ones.

"Hey baby, are you sure you want to do this?" He asked, looking into my eyes.

I stared back trying not to get lost in his deep green eyes. "I'm ready. I love you and I'm ready for anything." I said bluntly.

His eyes shined brighter than the sun at my words. He leaned down and gave me a sweet peck on the lips.

I kissed back but pulled away after a while. "Thank you. I will be there with every step you take. I love you too." Virat whispered before putting his arms around my waist and pulling me closer.

"You'll be fine Manvi." Arjun reassured me while rubbing my back.

I smiled at him, "Thanks Arjun."

"Don't worry about it babe, I was even more nervous than you were but here I am, still dating Barun Sobti."

Pashu said grinning. I let out a giggle, "And here you are..." I agreed.

"They're gonna love you Mannu. You make Virat the happiest man in the world and if fans can't see that, than they're not fans at all." Sameer said.

He placed a hand on my knee and gave me a reassuring smile. I smiled back in return.

"Besides, who can hate Manvi-boo?" Karan asked like it was the most impossible thing in the world. My friends nodded in agreement and I felt blood rush to my cheeks. Virat grinned and kissed my head tenderly.

Oh, what would I do without these idiots I call my friends?

-

The boys were about to go on stage and as promised, I gave Virat his huge good-luck kiss. He had a goofy grin on his face as the whole time after I pulled away. It was incredibly cute.

"It's One Direction!" Karan Johar exclaimed sending everybody off screaming.

They boys entered, grinning and waving like idiots. Pashu, Jeevika, Viren, and I shared amused looks from our seats in the audience.

Yes, we were in the audience. The boys offered us to stay backstage but we disagreed since we wanted to watch the interview up close too.

Plus, it made me less nervous pretending I was one of the audience.

They boys all hugged Karan Johar and sat down on the couch. The screams were slowly dying down. Thank god too because it felt like I was losing my ability to hear.

"That's disgusting...that's disgusting, don't eat that." Karan Johar said, referring to the pretzels on the table. The audience laughed while the boys shared amused glances.

"Who wants a drink?" Karan Johar started off the interview easy-going. "Me." Arjun said first. Shocker...

The interview went on normally. The boys were their usual charming selves and Karan Johar was his usual funny self.

It was entertaining and at that moment I almost forgot about all my worries. That was until the dreaded question was asked.

"Now I know I ask you this everytime you come here but which one of you have girlfriends? Did anything change since last time?" Karan Johar asked.

I took a deep breath while Jeevika and Pashu took each of my hands in theirs. They smile reassuringly at me and I returned a shaky one.

Sameer, Barun and Virat's hands went up. Virat's eyes stayed locked with mine and his eyes shined with one thing. Love.

Karan Johar gasped, "Virattt! I could've sworn last time you were here, you were single."

Virat grinned, "Well, recently I met a wonderful girl and basically...we just get on really well..." Virat said awkwardly, not wanting to share more.

His cheeks were turning a light shade of pink which was strange for Virat.

"So, who is this lucky girl?" Karan Johar asked. Virat grinned at me, "Her name is Manvi Choudary." He said lovingly.

'"Well, she seems lovely if she's gotten our Viraattt all smitten! Can you tell us more about 'er?" Karan Johar asked.

All the fans in the audience were silent. Dead silent. No crying. No cheering. Just plain silent. I didn't know if that was a good thing of a bad thing.

A goofy smile spread across Virat's beautiful face, "She's lovely. She's funny, smart, sweet, cheeky,

everything I look in for a girl. She's the most beautiful girl I've ever met...and she just really understands me.

She makes me happy." The words escaped Virat's mouth sending butterflies to my stomach.

"Aww, do you love 'er?" Karan Johar asked, staring intently at Virat.

The boys were sending each other knowing smiles and Virat flushed beet red.

"Yes, I do. Too much really." He mumbled. The audience finally made a sound. A sound that completely took me off guard.

They were cheering. They weren't just cheering. They were shouting, encouraging, and supporting. Wanna know the best part?

They were chanting...our names. "Virman! Virman! Virman!" Is that out couple name? It's pretty cute.

A huge smile appeared on my face as Pashmeen and Jeevika chanted along with them.

Virat let out a laugh of joy and the boys even joined in the chanting. Wow...I did not expect this.

Karan Johar laughed along and tried to calm the fans down. After a while they finally calmed down and Virathad a huge grin on his face.

"So what do the boys think of 'er?" Karan Johar pressed on.

The boys grinned.

"We love her!" Karan was the first to speak, putting his arms in the air to emphasize the point. Everyone chuckled.

"She's a great girl. She's practically our little sister and we couldn't imagine Virat with anyone else." Arjun said.

Aww...

"When do we get to meet the girl?" Karan Johar asked. I froze in my spot. Oh no. Please no. God, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no-

"She's actually in the audience!" Sameer exclaimed. I glared at him but he simply winked.

"Oh goodness, than bring 'er out here Virat!" Karan Johar said.

Virat grinned and walked over to me. I shook my head violently but he simply chuckled.

The cameras focused on me and I smiled weakly. In a second, Virat was right in front of me, holding his hand out.

I took a deep breath and took his hand. He hold on it protectively. He smiled reassuringly and I returned a quick one.

He led me back and Karan Johar stood up, pulling me into a hug. "Virat's a lucky kid." He said into my ear before letting go.

My cheeks burned red and I grinned at him. Virat plopped on the couch and pulled me into his lap.

He put his chin on my shoulder, giving it a light kiss first. The audience let out a chorus of 'awws' making Virat smile.

"So here's the famous Manvi! My, Virat you weren't kidding when you said she was beautiful." Karan Johar said, smiling genuinely at me.

I flushed and Virat grinned at me, "Beautiful's an understatement." He said, still smiling at me.

I smiled at the ground, trying to hide another blush.

"Wanna say something Manvi?" Karan Johar said, handing me a microphone.

"Um...hii." I mumbled into the microphone. The audience chuckled and I sort of smiled, happy that I made them laugh.

Virat squeezed my hand, encouraging me to continue.

I smiled at the audience before saying, "I'm not gonna lie...I'm really nervous." I stared shakily.

Everyone laughed, calming me a bit.

"I just wanna say that I really hope you guys accept me and support Virat and I's relationship because I honestly do love him. I share him with every single one of you directioners and I really hope you guys would do the same?" I said sweetly.

The audience cheered like crazy and Virat gave me a proud smile.

"Beautiful, funny, and sweet. You got yourself a keeper Virat. Don't let 'er go." Karan Johar said, grinning.

"Never." Virat agreed, burying his face in my shoulder.
