The Audi was full of students and teachers amd guests. The stage was beautufully decorated and every student was having a neon stick in their hand. The neon sticks shined as it was completely dark there. Abhi went on the stage to announce the opening performance.
Abhi: Guys and Girls get ready for a sizzling performance by your favourite fab5, Nandini Murthy, Navya Naveli and Harshad Saxena. Give it up for the rockstars of Warrior High.
Saying this he came on the backstage and the crowd was cheering for everyone. They went on the stage and took their places. Manik and Nandini were in the centre, Aliya and Dhruv were on their right, Cabir and Mukti were on the right of Dhruv and Aliya, Harshad and Navya were on the left of Manik and Nandini. The curtains were still down and Nandini felt nervous. She took deep breaths and looked at Manik and Manik also turned his face and they smiled looking at each other. That moment vanished all her fears and she was confident now. The curtains were opened and the crowee cheered on top of their voices. Manik and Nandini were still looking at each othet intensely and the music started playing and Manik started singing still looking at Nandini and as soon as he sung the first line everyone started dancing along with their partners.

Nandini sang while dancing with Manik and looking into his eyes intensely.

Everyone exchanged their partners. Now it is Dhruv and Nandini, Manik and Aliya, Harshad and Mukti, Cabir and Navya and started dancing together
Manik and Nandini were looking at each other. Mukti was not looking at Harshad and he was staring at her. Cabir and Navya were intensely looking at each other. Aliya was looking at Manik but he was not paying attention to her and Dhruv was looking at Aliya.
Ho nasheelee hai raat
Ho Haathon mein haath
Naache gaayein saath
Manik and Dhruv again exchanged their partners. Now MaNan and Dhrulya were together. Cavya and Mukshad were together. At the same time every boy sang:
Ishq wala love..

Everyone ended the dance with the same pose with their partners. Partners looking at each other and the boy's hand on the girl's waist and slightly bending the girl. The lights went off and curtains were closed and everyone was cheering for them. The couples were in the same position except Mukshad. Mukti ran away as soon as possible. Manik pecked on Nandini's lips and then they stood up blushing looking at each other. Cavya and Dhrulya also stood straight and went to the backstage along with MaNan. As soon as they came back, Abhi came near them to congratulate everyone for the amazing performance. And soon Manik and Nandini were sent to the stage for hosting. They went on the stage with a big smile on their faces. They stood in the center of the stage.
Manik: Hello everyone. I am Manik Malhotra.
Nandini: And I am Nandini Murthy and we both are going to be your hosts for tonight.
Manik: Yes. So Nandini mujhe batao what do you think about Friendship. (He looked at her)
Nandini: umm.. Friendship is a beautiful feeling and the most precious thing in our lives.
Manik: That is so true. So let's see what friendship is for the students of St. Teresa's.
Nandini: So guys give it up for St. Teresa's students.
Manik and Nandini went on the backstage again and some students came on the stage and performed a music-dance sequence on "Yaaron Dosti Badi hi haseen hai." After the performance everyone started cheering for them and MaNan came back on the stage.
Manik: Wow..What a performance.
Nandini: Ya Manik. It was brilliant. Waise tumne mujhse question pucha so now it's my turn.
Manik smirked: Yeah ask na.
Nandini looked at him: Manik what is love?
Manik looked lovingly into her eyes and came closer to her. He started thinking about the moments spent with her, their first encounter, How they became friends, how he licked the ice cream, Their kisses and he was lost for a moment. He completely forgot what the dialogues were. He just closed his eyes and started speaking what his heart said.
Manik: Love is just a four letter word for some people but for me love is when two people touch each other's soul. Love is when you get hurt and the person who loves you feels the pain. Love is a pure feeling, Love is friendship, Love is trust. And Lastly I want to say that I love..(He stopped himself and said to himself "YOU" and then he realised what he just said so coming back to the real world he said: )
Manik: I love the feeling of being in love and being loved by someone unconditionally.
Nandini said to herself," I love you to Manik."
And then coming out of her dream land she also composed herself and started speaking.
Nandini: Wow Manik. After listening to you I am loving the feeling of being in love. So let's see a beautiful love tale by Aman Singhania and Sonya Khanna from Sofaya school.
Manik and Nandini went on the backstage and saw the same guy Aman getting ready for the performance and taking with Cabir. Manik started fuming with anger and wanted to punch him hard but Nandini clutched his hand signalling him to stop. Manik looked at Nandini's pleading eyes and all his anger vanished within seconds. As soon as the performance started Cabir came near MaNan and started teasing them.
Cabir: Woah! Woah! Woah! Manik Malhotra is in louuuveee..
They both blushed listening to him and Cabir again started teasing them.
Cabir: Omg Manik you are blushing. I mean Nandini to blush karti hi hai. But you are blushing.. Ahem ahem.
Manik came out of Nandini land and said: Cabir! Shut up! Ye sab chhod. Wo kis se bat kar raha tha tu?
Cabir: Ya that guy. He is Aman Singhania. Abhi jo perform kar raha hai. Nice guy he is!
Nandini angrily: Nice guy? Like really Cabir. Tumhe pata hai usne kya kiya.
Nandini had tears in her eyes and Manik held her hand tightly and started speaking. He explained everything to Cabir and Cabir got very angry listening to it.
Cabir: What the f**k! That bas***d. How dare he touch out Nandu. I wont leave that asshole!
Manik and Cabir saw Nandini sobbing silently so they just hugged her tightly and she also gave in. They hugged each other for a while and then broke the hug.
Mukti who heard the last part came near Nandini and kept her hand on her shoulder in a comforting way.
Mukti: Nandini stop crying. You have to be strong. Okay?
Nandini: Ya Mukti.
They both hugged each other and as the performance got over Aman and Sonya came to the backstage and everyone gave a deadly stare to him. He just smirked and then winked looking at Nandini. Manik and Cabir went to punch him but Nandini stopped them and walked towards Aman. She stood in front of him giving an angry stare. And the next second she punched Aman hard in his face and the corner of his lips started bleeding.
Nandini: never ever try to come closer to me. Do you get that? Now get the hell out of here.
Aman was shocked and Manik, Cabir and Mukti smirked looking at him. He felt insulted and started walking away.
Mukti screamed: In your face!
They all felt happy seeing the bold Nandini. They walked towards her.
Cabir: Wow. My jungli billi is back.
Mukti: Great job Nandini. He deserved it.
Nandini just smiled and Manik looked proudly at Nandini and then they went back on the stage.
Manik: Wow.. Love is in the air.
Nandini: Yeah. Love is everywhere you just need to find it.
Manik: Exactly. So the next performance is rock music sequence by the Ryan international school.
They both again went to backstage and after 2 more performances Manik and Nandini went for the final announcement. They informed everyone that the food counter is open and to enjoy the rest of the night.
They also said that they will meet the audience again tomorrow at the same time. Everyone cheered a lot and after sometime everyone dispersed from there to the food counter. Fab5, NavNi and Abhi also had dinner.
After having dinner, Nandini went away from there excusing herself and started walking towards her room. She messaged Manik something.
Nandini: Manik please meet me in the music room after 5 minutes.
Manik: Okay my princess.
Nandini blushed reading his text and rushed to her room and Manik went towards the music room giving some excuse to everyone. Nandini went inside her room and came out with her jar of fireflies and then entered the music room but Manik was not there. She waited for a while and Manik came from behind without letting her know about it. Her back was facing Manik. He just smiled and moved closer to her and at the same time she turned around. As soon as she turned her jar of fireflies slipped from her hand and both of them at a time saved it from falling. Their hands touched and the fireflies started shinning. Nandini remembered about the guy who saved her fireflies from falling on the highway. Nandini looked at Manik and started smiling. Manik was confused and they both stood up together still holding the jar together. Nandini's happiness was beyond everything.
Nandini happily: That was you!
Manik: What?
Nandini: That was you. Mumbai- Mangalore highway.10th july. Your car broke down and there was a bus.
Manik was confused: 10th july? What are you talking about?
Nandini: Don't you remember?
Manik: Wait! Ya I was there at the highway and ya ek bus bhi thi. But how do you know?
Nandini started smiling and was about to say something but everyone else came there.Everyone was very happy because their performance went very well and all of then were praised a lot for making the arrangements perfect. Abhi was constantly looking at Mukti but she was avoiding him. Abhi texted Manik asking about Mukti. Manik replied back saying that he has a plan and we all will execute it after the event is over. Abhi believed Manik because Nandini had told him about how much Manik cares about his friends. After some time of talking, everyone started moving to their rooms. Cavya and MaNan were walking together, Dhrulya and Mukbhi were walking together. Mukti was completely ignoring Abhi and Aliya and Dhruv were stealing glances of each other. Meanwhile, Cavya and MaNan were walking towards NavNi's room and were talking and pulling each other's legs. In between Manik pulled Nandini with her and entered an empty classroom. Cavya were busy in each other that they realised it very late and then Cabir commented," yeh dono ek dusre se durr reh hi nahi sakte." and Navya laughed heartily listenening to this. Cabir was just mesmerizing her. They both reached her room and Navya was about to enter the room and Cabir moved closer to her but at the same time Navya turned to him and at that time her lips brushed his lips.
They kept staring at each other intensely. They were so close to each other that they could feel each other's hot breaths. Meanwhile, Manik and Nandini were alone in a classroom.
Nandini: Manik. Kya kar rahe ho tum?
Manik: Nandu just tell me everything about that day. Please.
Nandini: Manik not now.
Manik: Nandu please batao abhi.
Nandini moved closer to him and kept her hands around his neck and they both started moving towards the wall. Nandini kept looking at Manik lovingly while Manik was just lost in her. Nandini caressed his face with her fingers and seductively whispered in his ears.
Nandini: Just wait until tomorrow.
Manik was completely lost in her and taking the advantage of this she ran away and Manik followed her with a confused look. He couldn't believe that Nandini had tricked him and the most important thing was that he realised how much effect she had on him. They both were walking towards her room. Manik held her right hand and entwined their fingers and took their hands in his left hand and started caressing it. They both reached Nandini's room and saw the most shocking sight in front of them. They saw Navya and Cabir's lips touching and they were slowly moving away from each other. MaNan saw them looking at each other intensely. Manik cleared his throat to bring them out of the trance. Navya was feeling shy so she went inside her room blushing. MaNan came near Cabir to tease him while Cabir looked here and there to avoid any eye contact.
Nandini just hugged Cabir in happiness and Cabir also gave in. After breaking the hug they both saw Manik standing there with a frown on his face. Nandini nodded her head and hugged him too. He happily hugged her back and saying good night to both of them, she also went inside and saw Navya looking outside the window and blushing. Navya started thinking about what had happened just few minutes ago.
FLASHBACK
Navya and Cabir were looking at each other intesely and suddenly Cabir moved his hands to her face and cupped her face. He moved closer to her lips and she closed her eyes. Cabir touched her lips with his and started kissing her with passion and she also responded with equal passion. It was a soft and passionate kiss of love. After some time, they moved away and started staring at each other lovingly.
END OF FLASHBACK
Nandini kept the jar on her side table and went towards the blushing Navya. As soon as Nandini came there, Navya hugged her and said," Nandu mujhe Cabir se.." She stopped and after some time Nandini said," Pyaar hogaya hai. Am I right or am I right." Navya smiled while hugging her and said," hann."
Meanwhile, Manik and Cabir were in his room and Manik was continuously teasing Cabir and after some time Cabir said that he wanted to sleep to which Manik laughed and he also went to his bed happily. Cabir said to himself," I kissed Madhubala. What is wrong with me? Am I in love..No no it is not possible. I should sleep."
He dozed off soon but Manik was still awake. He started thinking about how will he confess his feelings to Nandini. He said to himself," Tomorrow is the day. I will confess my feelings. I LOVE YOU NANDINI. MY ANGEL." He started smiling and at the same time Nandini was also lying on her bed. She was also thinking the same. She said to herself," I LOVE YOU MANIK MY MONSTER. Tomorrow I will tell you the truth about my fireflies." She started blushing and dozed off after some time. Manik also dozed off after some time.
PRECAP: Abhi and Mukti become friends.
Dhrulya's increasing closeness.
