PROLOGUE

An 11 year old sweet pampered girl who was blessed with everything. Her parents loved her the most and treated her like a princess. She was happy in her own bubble with her family and friends. But a dark night rose and fate changed everything. All Nandini could see was the sight of her parent dying in front of her but she couldn't do anything, his baby brother suffering badly. She was drenched with blood but all she cared about was her family. She tried to reach her parents but suddenly she fainted. After that incident she could only remember the sight of her parents dying in front of her. Nandini woke up with a jerk and she found herself lying on a bed with many machines and tubes around her. Doctor came towards her and asked," So finally you are awake. How are you feeling Nandini?" Nandini put her hand on her head and after a long pause she asked," Nandini? Kon nandini?" Who am I? Mai kaha hu?" Saying that everyone around her were shocked would be an understatement. Rishab was crying and he came towards Nandini and hugged her. Nandini was confused and she jerked him away. Nandini was staring at rishab as if trying to remember him and she fainted again. Rishab started crying and doctor told everyone to go out. After some time the doctor informed that Nandini has lost her memory. Everyone was shocked. After some time Nandini woke up and everyone came inside. Nandini looked at them all confused. She didn't find any familiar face and then she looked at Rishab and called her. Rishab was very happy and he hugged her. The doctor came and asked her," How are you? Do you remember anything?" Nandini replied," Maa, Appa, Rish..Ri..Rishab." After sometime the doctor informed that she remembers only the accident and no one should ever try to talk to her about her past. The doctor also informed that she might recall memories but if anyone else tries to talk about her past it won't be good for her.

On the other hand, an 11 year old boy was lying on a hospital bed unconscious. He woke up with a jerk and screamed,"Dhruv". He was none other than Manik. Manik looked around himself and was totally confused. He started remembering what had happened last night" Manik and Dhruv were playing on the back seat of a car and suddenly they met with an accident. Dhruv's head was majorly injured but Manik was helpless" He started crying when the doctor came in and said," So how are you feeling?" Manik replied" Dhruv kaha hai? Wojh theek to hai na?" He was informed that Dhruv is fine but he is suffering from an unknown disorder which can't be curred easily. Manik was shocked and he started blaming himself.

After 5 long years, everything was fine but the memories always hit them hard. Nandini Murthy lived in Mangalore with her grand mom and developed interest in music and dance. At first she hated her grand mom because she was the one who informed her about her parent's death but slowly she started accepting the fact and grew up as a strong girl. On the other hand Manik Malhotra who was deprived of love grew up as a rude arrogant monster. His friends were his life. Music was his first love, his passion, his everything.

Nandini grew up as strong girl with high ambitions. She wanted to follow her dream of becoming a singer but she was also interested in management field so she decided to join a good reputed school which was none other than her dream school warrior high. She wanted her brother to speak again and and be normal so she decided to take him to Mumbai where he could live with Chacha- Chachi and she could regularly visit him.

"Amms I will miss you so much. I love you. Please take care of yourself. Bye" Said Nandini hugging her grand mom and got inside the bus carrying her jar of fireflies with her. She was having fun with Rishab and Chacha chachi and after some time she slept. She woke up with a jerk as she realized that something hit the bus and everyone got out of the bus. She saw a black jeep and she turned around with a frown. She was holding her jar of fireflies and said," Oh shit. Ab kya hoga? Mumbai ja rahi hu and." Suddenly someone bumped into her and her jar was about to fall. She got sacred and saw a tall guy holding her jar of fireflies and she smiled. The guy stood up and gave the jar back to her and their hands touched and at the same time her fireflies started to shine. She starts smiling and was about to thank him but he started walking. She saw that he was very tall and was carrying a guitar with him. He joined 4 other people wearing similar black outfits. She kept staring at them until they were out of her sight.

She reached Mumbai late at night. She was tired and went to her room thinking about her day and that guy. Thinking about what had happened and about that guy she fell asleep with a smile on her face.

IT WAS A NEW BEGINNING FOR HER.

SHE WAS NOT CONTENDED WITH HER LIFE SO WASN'T MANIK.

LITTLE DID THEY KNOW DESTINY HAS SOMETHING PLANNED FOR THEM!

SHE BELIEVED IN LOVE BUT HE DIDN'T.

SHE WAS SWEET HE WAS ARROGANT.

THEY WERE POLES APART.

BUT THEY SAY," OPPOSITES ATTRACT."

LET'S SEE HOW THESE TWO SOULS FALL IN LOVE.

CHAPTER 42

NEXT MORNING

Manik woke up due to a severe head ache and saw Nandini sleeping peacefully in his arms wearing only his shirt. He checked his watch and it was 6:30 am in the morning. He tried to remember about the previous night's memories and held his head as it started paining more and more. Manik placed Nandini on the pillow and tried to get up but Nandini held his hand tightly and said in a sleepy voice," Baby don't go na. Stay with me." Manik cupped her cheeks and pecked on her lips to which she opened her eyes and kissed his lips softly. Breaking the kiss, Manik said softly," Wake up Nandu. We are not at home. Koi hume aise dekh leha to." Nandini looked at Manik who was shirtless and then at herself wearing only his shirt. She blushed remembering about last night and Manik said," You look so pretty when you blush." Nandini blushed even more and said," Tum na aise bolte rahoge to how will I stop blushing." Manik chuckled and said," Accha chalo now get up and let's go out before anyone comes." Nandini just smiled and stood up giving a peck on his cheeks. She wore her clothes and so did Manik. MaNan called up their friends and told them to get back to their respective tents so that no one gets to know anything. Everyone woke up from their slumber and went back to their tents. After an hour, all the students were gathered up in the centre.

Manik was holding his head and looking down when Nandini sat beside him keeping her hand on his shoulder. She gave a glass to Manik and said," Manik drink it. It's lime juice. You will feel better." Manik smiled and took the glass. He started drinking and after finishing it he was about to say something when Nandini interrupted him and said," Now don't say thank you or how did you come to know about my headache. I know everything about you. Tum bolo us se pehle mujhe pata chal jata hai ki something is troubling you." Manik was amazed. He kept the glass away and just pulled her into a side hug and said nuzzling into her neck," You are the best Nandu. I love you so much." His hot breath on her neck made her shiver and she said controlling herself," I love you more Manik." Manik smiled at what effect he had on her and thought that she has the same effect on him. Soon the breakfast was served and everyone had it together.

Raghav: So it's a bright sunny day. I have an idea. Yahi pas me ek bohot famous church hai. Mount Mary Church.

Naina: Yes it's really beautiful. So let's go there.

Everyone agreed happily except Manik as he didn't want to go to a Church. He saw Nandini's happy face so he also smiled and agreed to go. Everyone sat in the bus and within 15 minutes they reached the Church. It was not so far from the camp site and it was not even in the city. As they entered the Church there was pin drop silence and many people were there praying to jesus.

The church was very big and spacious with white interiors and many candles lit in the middle. All the students sat there along with some other people and enjoyed the silence closing their eyes. Everyone went in the middle turn by turn and prayed to jesus and lit a candle. Nandini also got up from her seat and went in the front and she also dragged Manik with her. She joined her hands entwining her own fingers and closed her eyes. She prayed," Oh lord Jesus please give me the strength to be good and be good to others. Please give world's happiness to Amms, Chacha, Chachi, Rishab, Manik, Cabir, Abhi, Navya, Dhruv, Mukti and Aliya. I love Manik more than myself. My happiness lies within his happiness. So please keep him healthy, safe, happy and away from all the bad people." All this while Manik was just looking at Nandini and he also prayed silently to keep her happy always. He never believed in all this but seeing Nandini he wanted to pray to jesus but he didn't want to show his real side to everyone. Nandini opened her eyes and lit a candle and she walked back to sit along with Manik. Everyone sat their for a while and then came back to the camp site during the lunch time. Everyone had lunch together and as always MaNan were feeding each other in between and soon everyone finished their lunch.

Raghav: So students it's 2 pm right now and I don't think we can do anything right now because it's too hot right now. So you all can do anything right now but don't go anywhere.

Naina: Yes. We both need some rest. So see you all at 5 pm.

Everyone agreed to them and some students sat their itself and rest of the students went inside the tents. Fab5, NavNi and Abhi were sitting inside ManRuv's tent and talking.

Cabir: Guys I think Aryamann is a nice guy. Nai to wo kyu confess karta Harshad ke bare me?

Manik: What are you talking about?

Cabir explained everything to Manik as he was not in his senses yesterday. Manik was boiling with anger.

Manik: Are you guys insane? It is definetely Harshad's plan.

Mukti: I second that. Wo kuch bhi kar sakta hai.

Manik: Exactly!

Cabir: But we can have a test. Uske bad we will decide whether to believe him or not.

Manik: What test?

Cabir explains everything and everyone seems to be convinced with his plan. Cabir called Aryamann inside their tent.

Cabir: So Aryamann it's time to prove your innocense.

Aryamann: I will do anything to prove it.

Manik angrily: I hope you do so. Nai to mai tumhare sath wo karunga jo tumne apne sapne me bhi nahi socha hoga.

Aryamann: Woah! I really need to prove it then. So tell me mujhe kya karna hai.

Cabir: Ye video jo mai tumhe de raha hu usey leak karna hai instead of the video which Harshad is expecting.

Aryamann: Okay! But what if Harshad wants to watch it before it's leaked.

Cabir: I think you are smart enough to handle the situation.

Aryamann: Okay! I will do it. See you all later.

Aryamann left from there and entered his tent where Harshad was sitting with his laptop.

Harshad: What's up Aryamann?

Aryamann: Nothing dude! You look too happy today. What's the matter?

( On the other side, everyone is listening to their conversation.)

Harshad: Yes because I am gonna win today.

Aryamann: Wow! So much confidence eh?

Harshad smirked: Chuck it. How is the video? I mean is it enough to destroy the love birds?

Aryamann: Yes! Don't worry bro!

Harshad smirked: So let's watch it and have some fun.

Aryamann: Actually I don't think we should watch it. It can be risky if someone catches us. Jab viral hojayega tab dekh lena.

Harshad: Okay!

On the other side, everyone was happy that their plan was working and they had started believing Aryamann. All of them started talking and having fun along with leg pulling and teasing each other. After an hour Aliya slept on Dhruv's shoulder who was also sleeping in a sitting position. Cabir was beside Dhruv and Navya was sleeping keeping her head on his chest and Mukti was sleeling on his lap. Abhi was sitting between NavNi and was admiring everyone. He also slept after some time. Cabir was awake and so were MaNan. Manik was lying on Nandini's lap and she was ruffling his hairs and Cabir was smiling at them. Suddenly, Manik stood up and said in a low voice," Cabir we will be back in an hour. Tu bhi so ja and don't worry about us.( Cabir showed him thumbs up) Chalo Nandu." Saying this he dragged Nandini with her and they sneaked out of the camp site and started walking on the road.

Nandini: Where are we going?

Manik: Just keep walking. I promise you will not regret.

Nandini nodded her head as she knew arguing with him was useless. After some time, they were standing in front of the same Church where they had come in the morning. Nandini gave him a confused look but he didn't answer and dragged her inside. He held her hand and brought her in the front and then turned towards her holding both of her hands in his. He looked into her eyes lovingly and she smiled as she understood the reason for coming here again. Manik said," Nandini I never believed in God or praying to God but you have changed that too. Today I am praying for the first time so I thought to do it with you.( He turned his face towards Jesus and prayed," I am not a religious person but still I want to pray to you to keep my angel happy and away from all the dangers. I want world's happiness for her. Just keep her happy and let her be with me till my last breath. I want to die first because I can't live a moment without her.) He opened his eyes and looked at Nandini who was smiling at him. He said," I love You Nandini and today I want to promise you something in front of Jesus. I can't say that I will love you forever like this only because my love for you increases with every passing second. So I promise to love you more and more every second. I promise to keep you happy forever. I promise to be with you till my last breath. I love you Nandini Humesha Humesha."

Nandini was overwhelmed with his gesture and was smiling to her fullest. She hugged him tightly leaving no space for even air to pass. Manik hugged her back with equal force. Nandini said," I love you More Manik. I love you so so much. And I promise to shine for you always. Tum meri har prayer me rahoge and I will trust you Humesha." Manik smiled and kissed her hair. They stayed in that position for a while and the other people in the church were admiring them and smiling. They broke the hug and kept looking at each other. Their trance was broken by the father of the Church. He came near them and said," I have never witnessed such pure love in my entire life. I will pray everyday to keep you both happy. May God bless you both." MaNan smiled looking at him and Nandini said," Thank you father. That means a lot." Father smiled and said," No need to say thanks. Well, I need you both to light a candle together. A candle of happiness which will brinh happiness in your lives." MaNan smiled looking at each other and lit a candle together and stood there for a while. Manik turned her to face him and placed a soft peck on her forehead and said," Let's go." Nandini simply nodded and they left the Church hand in hand. They walked back to the camp site still holding hands and sat in the centre together. It was 4:30 pm and they left a sigh of relief when they realised that no one caught them. They were sitting their alone and other students were in their tents.

They sat their close to each other for a while and were smiling. Soon, their friends came out of their tents. They saw Manik resting his head on Nandini's shoulder and Nandini's head tilted on his. His hands were holding her tightly and her hands were wrapped around his stomach. Cabir took a picture of them again and then suddenly Manik opened his eyes and said," Cabir why did you click a picture?" Nandini also opened her eyes due to Manik's voice and looked at everyone confusingly. Cabir said," Because you both were looking too cute in that pose. Isiliye I couldn't stop myself from capturing that moment." MaNan looked at him with an awe expression and saw that picture. They actually looked very cute in that picture and smiled looking at each other. They thanked Cabir for it and everyone settled on the benches. Soon everyone gathered up in the centre along with Raghav Sir and Miss Naina.

Raghav: So students today we won't be playing any game. We are not here just to have fun but also to learn something.

Naina: Yes! So everyone take a book and a pen with you. We are going to a business firm which is nearby to learn something which will help you in your life.

All the students looked very upset and angry because of this.

Raghav: Guys don't worry! It will br fun. And tonight we are going to have bonfire party. So cheer up.

Everyone's sad faces turned into happy as soon as they heard about the party.

Nandini: Guys chalo. It's gonna be so much fun.

Manik: Fun? Like seriously?

Nandini: Yes Manik. Tum mere sath rehna.Trust me tumhe maza aayega.

Cabir: Waise bhi tumse hi chipka rehta hai pura din and puri rat bhi. ( He winked looking at MaNan and they blushed)

Manik: Baat to sahi hai Cabir. You know I can't stay away from her. And Nandu I will be with you only.

Nandini: That's great. Let's go guys.

Navya: Par mujhe nahi jana. Hum sab yaha enjoy karne aaye hai.

Aliya: Exactly!

Dhruv: But what can we do? Chalna hi padega.

Everyone nodded and went inside the bus. The only one who was excited was Nandini and Manik was just happy seeing her excitement. Soon they reached a place which was a large firm of famous for fruit crushes and jams. The owner explained how he struggled to get here and also taught some basic rules for business and actually everyone was enjoying it. After 2 hours the session was over and everyone was seated in a garden like place and were served their specialities. Everyone loved it and in an hour they left for their camp site. It was around 8 pm when they reached the camp site. As they reached, they were told to freshen up and meet in the centre after some time. All the students came back in the centre where bonfire was arranged and all the food and non alchoholic drinks were placed on a table nearby. Manik, Cabir, Dhruv and Abhi were waiting for the girls to arrive. Manik was wearing beige jeans, a printed black and orange t shirt with a black casual blazer. Cabir was wearing blue denims with a white shirt.

Dhruv wore black jeans with a baby pink shirt. Abhi wore blue denims with a white full sleeved t shirt. Soon the girls came there looking extremely beautiful. Nandini was wearing a black knee length dress with full netted sleeves. Navya wore black skinny jeans with beige coloured full sleeved top. Aliya was wearing a navy blue skirt with a white printed crop top. Mukti was wearing a black shorts with black top and a white long shrug. They settled around the bonfire and started having food and talking. Harshad and Aryamann also came there and Harshad signalled Aryamann to do his work. Aryamann smirked and looked at Cabir who assured him to do it. Aryamann passed a video to everyone of their batch and announced," Guys I have an awesome video for you all. Please check your phones." As soon as he said that everyone's phone beeped and all the students started watching the video. Harshad was sitting and smirking and others were laughing and looking at him again and again. He saw that fab5, NavNi and Abhi were also laughinh hard so he thought that something is fishy. He took out his phone and started watching the video and was shocked plus ashamed. The video was of Harshad dancing close to a guy and he looked as if he is gay. He looked up to find fab5 along with NavNi and Abhi standing in frony of him with an evil smirk and others were laughing. He looked at Aryamann who was also standing with them.

Cabir: Tu Manik aur Nandini ka video leak karne wala tha na. Ab kya hua Harshad?

Harshad: How dare you? Tumne theek nahi kiya. I will destroy each and everyone of you.

Manik smirked: Harshad Harshad Harshad. Tch Tch Tch. You are still dreaming about destroying us. So ek bat kan khol kar sunn le you can't even touch us.

Harshad pointed his finger towards Manik: You bloody

He looked around and found everyone passing rubbish comments on him and laughing so he looked down in embarrasment and walked away from there giving an angry stare to Aryamann. Aryamann sighed and came towards Cabir.

Aryamann: I guess now you can believe me.

Cabir: Yes absolutely bro!

Manik: Yes we believe you now. But Cabir aur ek kam baki hai. I want proofs against Nyonika.

Cabir: Don't worry about that. I have handled everything.

Manik: That's great. So guys let's enjoy the party.

Everyone smiled and sat around the bonfire with other students. Raghav and Naina also joined them after some time. They completed their dinner along with loads of fun and now they thought of playing something.

Raghav: So are you all enjoying?( Everyone shouted," yes.") So let's have some more fun. Any ideas?

Naina: I have an idea. We will play pass the ball game. We will play music and you all have to keep passing the ball and when the music stops the person who has the ball has to do anything which is told to him/her.

Everyone agreed happily and started playing the game. The music started and everyone passed the ball from one person to another.

First time the ball was in a random guy's hand and he was told to tell a joke and he did but no one laughed on his lame joke. The second time the ball was in the hands of Cabir. He came in the middle and said," Toh kya saza di jayegi hume?" Everyone chuckled and Manik said," Sale tu ruk tujhe to aisi saza dunga ki zindagi bhar nahi bhulega." Cabir made a puppy face and Manik smirked. He said," Chal mere bhai 50 push ups kar de abhi." Everyone started cheering for him and he stood there faking his sadness. He started doing push ups and waa tired with 25 push ups. Everyone told him to complete the task but Nandini said," Cabir tum kisi ki mat suno. Come and sit here. You are not doing it agar tumse nahi ho raha hai to." Mukti said," It's not fair yar. He has to do it." Aliya said," Ya but Manik ne task diya hai to usey hi decide karne do." Nandini smirked and said," So it's decided he is not doing it. Hai na Manik." She looked at Manik with a puppy face which melted his heart and he said," As you say baby." Nandini smiled and Cabir sat on his place and others started shouting at Manik. After some time of arguements, the game started again and this time music stopped when MaNan were holding the ball together. So they both stood in the centre waiting for their punishment. Everyone was thinking and suddenly Aliya said," Guys I have an awesome idea." Navya," Then batao na."

Aliya said," Manik and Nandini you both have to perform an act where Nandini will act as if she is angry with Manik and Manik has to try every possible thing to make her happy." At first they didn't agree but then everyone was forcing so much so Nandini said," Okay fine. But what is the scene? Why am I angry with him?" Aliya said," Just imagine that Manik was flirting or dancing with some other girl and you are angry with that." Nandini knew Manik would never do that but they had to do it so she made an angry face and looked at Manik. Manik was confused but he started doing his task. Nandini was sitting on a chair with an angry pout and Manik came there from behind and then sat on his knees in front of her making a puppy face and held his ears and said," I am sorry. Please forgive me." Nandini gave an annoyed look and walked away. He ran behind her and held her hand but she jerked it off and then he gave a rose to her but she threw it away. Everyone was clapping and cheering for them as if some movie is being played in front of them. Nandini was standing folding her hands across her chest and her back was facing Manik. She immediately turned around when she beard him singing.

Haan Ho Gayi Galti Mujhe Main Jaanta Hu.. ( He was walking towards her)

Par Ab Bhi Tujhe Main Apni Jaan Maanta

Hu..( He stopped in front of her and kept his hand on his heart looking straight into her eyes.)

Ek Aakhri Mauka De Mujhe..

Aaj Bhi Main Tujhe Apni Shaan Manta Hu..

Sirf Saanse Hi To Baaki Hai Jb Teri Yaad Aati

Hai..( He moved his face closer to her face and Nandini moved her hand towards his face but suddenly he moved away and sang while twirling around her.)

Yaad Me Teri Sath Ye Bhi Chord Jaati Hai..

Galti To Sabse Hoti Hai Galti MujhseBhi Ho

Gyi..

Ab Maaf Bhi Krde Mujhe Kyu Dur Itna Ho

Gyi..( He stood in front of her and made a puppy face.)

Ek Galti Ke Liye Kyu Sath Chord Tu Kyu

Muh Mord Gyi Tu..

Kyu Be Nishaan Sa Nishaan Chord GyiTu..

Haan Ho Gayi Galti Mujhse Main Jaanta Hu..

Par Ab Bhi Tujhe Main Apni Jaan Manta

Hu..

Jaan Maanta Hu..

Ek Aakhri Mauka De Mujhe..

Aaj Bhi Main Tujhe Apni Shaan Maanta Hu..

Shaan Manta Hu..

He ended the song and sat on his knees in front her and raised his hands in the air. They both kept looking at each other and Nandini started blushing. Nandini forwarded her hand to Manik and he held it and got up. She just hugged him and he gave in. Everyone started cheering for them and their trance was broken. MaNan broke the hug and they both sat on their places and both were blushing. The game continued for some more time and then everyone was tired so they went back to their tents but Manik stopped Nandini and brought her away from the tents near the edge of the mountain.

Nandini: What happened baby?

Manik: Woh I wanna ask you something.

Nandini: Pucho na.

Manik: When Aliya told about me flirting with someone else uske bad why did you get so angry? Were you imagining something?

Nandini chuckled: No baby. I was faking my anger. I know tum aisa kabhi nahi karoge. I was just acting.

Manik: I was scared looking at your angry face.

Nandini chuckled again and then Manik hugged her tightly. They hugged each other for a while and then kissed after breaking the hug. Manik then walked with Nandini towards her tent and then went back to his tent giving a peck on her lips.

CHAPTER 8 NEXT MORNING

Cabir woke up early and saw that Manik was not in the room. He realised that he didn't come last night. He thought that he might be with Dhruv but he wasn't with dhruv too. He said to himself," Manik kaha h tu? Shayad music room me hoga." Cabir left from there and went to the music room. At the same time, Manik and Nandini were sleeping peacefully in each other's arms in the same position. Cabir entered the music room and saw them sleeping in each other's arms. He smiled and sat on the chair in front of them and said to himself," Manik baba aakhir tu pakda gaya na. chup chup ke music room me.." He started laughing and this disturbed Nandini. She opened her eyes and saw that she was in Manik's arms and realised they both were hugging each other tightly. Then she saw Cabir smiling at them and she was shocked. She tried to move but Manik was holding her very tightly so she couldn't move. But because of Nandini's movements Manik woke up and saw that Nandini was awake and in his arms and then he saw Cabir so he suddenly left Nandini and stood up. Nandini also stood up. Nandini's eyes were puffy as she cried a lot yesterday. Cabir noticed this.

Cabir: Nandini are you okay? Your eyes! They are blood red.

Nandini: Wohh. Mai..Umm...( She looked at Manik and Manik also looked at her with a worried expression)

Manik: Nandini you go and rest. Yesterday you were crying a lot that's why your eyes have turned red so go and rest. Okay?

Nandini just nodded and left. Cabir was amused to see Manik and Nandini's behaviour.

Cabir: Manik ab to sach bata kya chal raha hai?

Manik: Cabir! Jaisa tu soch raha hai waisa kuch nahi hai.

Cabir: To kya hai Manik bata mujhe.

Manik: We have decided to practise daily at 7 in the music room for our project. So day before yesterday she saw that bracelet which Nandu gave it to me. Remember?

Cabir: Yes. So what?

Manik: So after that she was lost and left from there. And kal maine us se pucha ki kya hua? So she told me about her parent's accident and how she lost her memory and she also told me that she remembered something when she saw that bracelet. And then she started crying and I was just trying to console her.

Cabir: Ohh.. Okay. ( Cabir was lost in his thoughts and so was Manik)

There was pin drop silence for some time. Cabir was the first one to speak.

Cabir: Kya tu bhi wahi soch raha hai jo mai soch raha hu?

Manik: Han shayad. But it is not possible. She is no more.

Cabir: Possibility hai Manik. Nam bhi same hai. Kal usko wahi bracelet dekh ke past ke bare me kuch yad aaya.

Manik: But Cabir how can we decide ki wo humari Nandu hai.

Cabir: Hmm.. Chodd yeh sab. Chalte hai.

Manik: Hmm.

After some time, fab5 were sitting in the classroom. Nandini wasn't feeling well so she didn't come today. Navya entered the classroom alone and then sat with Harshad.

Harshad: Hi navya. Nandini kaha hai?

Navya: Wo harshad ji Nandini ki tabiyat theek nahi hai. To wo aaj nahi aayegi.

Harshad: Ohh.. Okay.

Navya: Waise harshad ji hum humare project ka kam kab shuru karenge?

Harshad: Don't worry Navya. We will start from tomorrow.

Navya just smiled. They both were sitting close to fab5 so Manik heard everything and was worried about Nandini. The whole day he wasn't able to concentrate on anything. He was just thinking about the ways to go to Nandini but fab5 was not leaving him alone.

IN THE EVENING

Harshad was in the library searching for a book.At the same time, Mukti came there searching for a book. They both bumped into each other. Mukti kept looking into Harshad's eyes and Harshad smirked. He pulled Mukti to a corner and held her tightly from her waist.

Mukti: Leave me Harshad.

Harshad: Not that easily Mukti.

Mukti: What do you want your jerk?

Harshad: You know what I want and you want the same.

Saying this he smirked and went closer to her lips. Mukti was trying hard to free herself but she couldn't. Hrashad was so close to her lips that their lips were about to touch. But Mukti kicked him where it hurts the most and ran away from there with tears in her eyes. Navya saw this whole scene and she was shattered and she also ran away from there. She was running but she bumped into Cabir and they both fell on the ground. Navya was on top of Cabir. She was crying a lot. She stood up as fast as possible and ran away from there. Cabir was shocked to see her crying so much. And at the same time he saw Haeshad coming out of the library. Cabir thought that he might have done something wrong to Navya. He gave an angry look to Harshad and left from there. At the same time, Navya went in one of the classrooms and started crying there as she didn't want to disturb Nandini.

At night

Manik was worried about Nandini as she didn't show up for the practice also. Manik decided to go and check on her and he left from boy's hostel and sneaked in the girl's hostel. He was searching for Nandini when he saw Nandini filling water in her bottle so he thought of following her. She started walking towards her room and Manik followed her. She opened the door of her room and went inside and Manik also entered the room and then locked it. Nandini was shocked to see Manik in her room. Manik was wearing black 3/4ths and a white T shirt. Nandini was in her light blue shorts and a white top.

Nandini: Manik! Tum yaha kya kar rahe ho?

Manik: Nandini what the hell? Tum aaj aayi kyu nahi?

Nandini: I was not feeling well.

Manik: I know. I mean at least you should have come for the practice. I was so worried about you. You are fine na?

Nandini was shocked to hear all this from Manik and she just kept staring at Manik. Manik also realise what he said and he also started staring at her. They both were lost in each other. After some time Nandini said.

Nandini: I am fine now.

Manik was relieved. Now he was back to his mischievous mode. He smirked and sat on the bed comfortably with a devilish smirk. Nandini was confused.

Nandini: Manik kya kar rahe to tum? Koi aajayega

Manik: So what Nandu?

Nandini: Manik please go na.

Manik: Mai nahi jaunga. Tum bhi baith jao. Khud ka hi room samjho.( He pulled Nandini and she landed beside him)

Nandini was angry and making cute expressions. Manik was totally enjoying everything. Nandini got up and told Manik to get out but he was in no mood to go so he didn't listen. Manik pulled Nandini again but this time she fell on top of him and they had an eye lock. Manik and Nandini were lost in each other and slowly Manik's hand went to her waist and he held her waist lightly. Nandini started blushing and Manik turned her around. Now Manik was on top Nandini. Slowly Manik moved his right hand to her face and started caressing her right cheek with his hand and the other hand was still holding her waist. Nandini slowly moved her hand to his shoulder and Manik came closer to her lips. They were so close that they could have kissed but they were disturbed by the window which closed due to wind. They realised in what position they were so they abruptly got up and straightened up. Manik was looking here and there and Nandini was looking down. Suddenly Manik's eyes fell on the jar of fireflies. He went towards it and asked Nandini what was it? Nandini came towards Manik and lifted the cloth on it and held the jar in her hand. She had a big smile on her face and Manik was just admiring her.

Nandini said excitedly: Yeh mere fireflies hai.

Manik looked at the fireflies and a smile appeared on his face and he touched the jar and his hand touched Nandini's hand and the fireflies started shining. Nandini looked at Manik and Manik also looked at Nandini. Nandini was smiling as her fireflies were shining.

Manik: Why are you smiling so much?

Nandini: Woh. I love fireflies isiliye.

Manik was very happy: Okay. I will see you tomorrow. Bye.

He left from there as soon as possible and Nandini was confused. Manik was running towards his room. He entered his room and hugged Cabir.

Cabir: Manik! Kya hua tujhe? Itna pyaar kyu aa raha hai mujhpe?

Manik: Cabir you won't believe mujhe kya pata chala.

Cabir: Kya hua yeh to bata.

Manik broke the hug and said: Cabir yeh wahi Nandu hai. Humari Nandu. Teri jungle billi aur meri angel. Han han wohi hai Cabir.

Cabir: Par tujhe kaise pata?

Manik: Uske room me fireflies ka jar tha. Yad hai tujhe Humari Nandu ke pas bhi humesha fireflies ka jar hota tha and wo usnko dekh ke kitni khush hojatai thi.

Cabir said with a broad smile: Han Manik. Humari Nandu hi hai yeh.

They both hugged each other tightly. They both were very happy.

CHAPTER 39

NEXT MORNING

Nandini got ready and went outside her room and found Manik there waiting for her. They hugged each other and kissed softly and went to the music room. Manik taught her some new tunes and she grasped them easily. After their practice session, they met the others in the assembly hall and like always they had breakfast together and went to attend their classes. MukBhi were observing Harshad and following him everywhere possible but they couldn't find anything. As Cabir said he was not an easy target. So they had to use his idea of spying on him. As it was saturday, the classes finished early and everyone gathered in ManBir's room to discuss their plan. Manik was sitting on his bed with Nandini on his side and Cabir lying on Nandini's lap. Mukti, Navya and Abhi were sitting on Cabir's bed and Dhrulya were sitting on the chairs.

Cabir: Guys so the plan is that we have to look after Harshad 24/7. And uske liye we need your help Aliya.

Aliya: Yeah! Tell me what do I need to do to trap my devil brother?

Manik: Aliya I know it's hard for you but

Aliya smiled: But what Manik? I know he is my brother but he never proved himself as a good brother. I am ashamed of him. You guys are my friends, my family and my life. So I will do everything possible to keep you all safe and happy.

Mukti: Aliya we all love you so much. You are a blessing for us. Thank you so much for understanding. Harshad is your brother but still you are going against him.

Aliya smiled: No need to thank me. We are a family. So chuck all this and tell me what I need to do.

Cabir: I will give you a watch and tumhe wo Harshad ko gift karna hai. Just do something and make him wear it.

Aliya: That's easy. But us se kya hoga?

Cabir: I have inserted a microphone in that.(He gives her the box of the watch) ye lo. Now we can listen to every single thing he speaks.

Mukti: Wow Cabir. That's awesome.

Nandini: Omg Cabir! Are you a detective or something? Ye sab ideas and all these things tumhare pas kaise hai?

Cabir: Nandu I am Cabir the best prankster. Aisa bohot kuch kiya hai maine.

Manik: Okay. Ye sab badme discuss karte hai. So what's next Cabir?

Cabir: Abhi ke liye to yahi hai. As soon as we get to know about where he goes frequently to meet someone to discuss his plans we can put a camera there.

Manik: Cool. So Aliya aaj tum apna kam karlena.

Aliya: Yeah sure.

Everyone decided to leave after sometime. MukBhi, Dhrulya and NavNi were about to leave when Manik shouted," No." Everyone got scared and turned around when Manik gave a fake smile and then pulled Nandini towards him and said," Bye guys. See you tonight." Everyone chuckled and soon they left. Now only MaNanBir were left in the room.

Nandini: Manik why did you stop me?

Manik dramatically: Aree Nandu tumhe mere sath time spend nahi karna chahti?

Nandini said cutely : Of course I want to baby.

Manik pulled her chubby cheeks and then kisses on her nose by pulling her closer.

Cabir: Guys I think I should leave you both alone so that you can Romance with each other.

Manik happily: Wow Cabir! Tu kabse itna smart hogaya? Bye.

Nandini: Aree why? Cabir you are not going anywhere.

Manik shocked: What?

Nandini: It's been so long that we three haven't spent time together. Don't you both miss those days?

ManBir smiled remembering their childhood memories. How they used to play and fight together; share everything with each other.

Manik: Yeah! I so miss those days.

Cabir smiled and hugged Nandini and Manik also hugged her from back. Nandini was squeezed between these two men whom she loved the most. She closed her eyes and said to herself," I hope we remain like this forever. Aiyappa please keep these two happy humesha. I love them more than myself." Cabir broke the hug but Manik was still hugging her closing his eyes and lost in his own world. Nandini felt something wet on her shoulder. She turned around breaking the hug and wiped the tears rolling down his cheeks. Manik was just looking at her and Nandini did the same. Manik said," I am scared. I am scared to loose you. You know na I can't live without you. And that jerk Harshad he can fall so low you have no idea." Cabir kept his hand on his shoulder and said," Manik mai bhi darta hu Nandini ko khone se. But we have to be strong and jab tak hum dono hai Nandini ko kuch nahi ho sakta." Nandini smiled and said," Han Manik. I know you both will never let anything happen to me."

Manik wiped his eyes and determinantely said," Yes! I Promise that I will not let anything happen to you." He cupped her face and said," Kuch nahi hone dunga tumhe." Nandini smiled and said," That's like my Manik. My monster." Manik also smiled finally and Cabir said," Oh god! Bohot senti dialogues hogaye aaj ke liye. I can't handle it anymore. Let's have some fun." MaNan agreed and they settled on the bed and started talking. Nandini was sitting and ManBir were lying on his lap. They were talking and recalling their memories. After some time, Cabir fell asleep in her lap and MaNan smiled looking at him. Nandini ruffled his hair gently. Manik sat beside Nandini wrapping his arms around her. He pecked on her lips and then kept his head on her shoulder. They also fell asleep soon.

IN THE EVENING

Harshad was in his room planning and plotting against fab5. Suddenly someone knocked on the door. He opened the door and was shocked to see Aliya standing on the door. Aliya had a blank expression on her face. He told her to come inside and they sat on the bed.

Harshad: Aliya tum yaha?

Aliya: Now I can't even come to meet my brother.

Harshad: It's not like that Aliya. Tum mujse naraz thi isiliye I was shocked to see you here.

Aliya: Yes I am still angry with you. But I was sad isiliye mai aapse milne aayi hu.

Harshad: What happened?

Aliya: Actually, I was missing those old good days with you. Sad isn't it? Aapne itna kuch kiya but fir bhi I am missing the old you.

Harshad cupped her face: Aliya I am sorry. Please don't be sad.

Aliya hugged her and closed her eyes. She said to herself," I really miss you bhai. I really do." She blinked her eyes to hide her tears and then after breaking the hug Aliya gave her the box.

Aliya: Bhai this is for you. I hope you like it.

Harshad: Wow Aliya. It's awesome. I will wear it always.

They spent some more time together and Aliya left giving him a hug and then texted on their group," Step one completed." At the same time Harshad said to himself," Just few more days Aliya. Fab5 tut jayega to our old good days will be back." Meanwhile, Cabir woke and saw MaNan sleeping peacefully cuddling each other. He without disturbing them went from there and as he read the message from Aliya, he put on his bluetooth device through which he can listen Harshad's words. He could hear music playing so he kept it aside and then after some time woke up MaNan for dinner. They had dinner and went back to their respective rooms.

NEXT MORNING

It was a bright sunday morning. Nandini woke up around 9 am and was shocked that she slept for a very long time. She saw some missed calls from Manik and then read the message from Manik," Good morning baby. I think you are asleep. So my sleeping beauty call me as soon as you wake up." She immediately called him. Manik was in the canteen with fab4. He walked away and picked up the phone.

Manik: So finally you are awake. Good Morning.

Nandini: Good Morning Manik.

Manik: I am in the canteen. Tum Navya ke sath jaldi aajao. We are waiting fod you.

Nandini: Okay. I will be there soon.

Manik: Navya ke sath hi aana. Okay?

Nandini: Han baba. I wont come alone. Bye. I love you.

Manik: I love you more.

He hung up the call and joined others with a smile on his face. Everyone was staring at him with a grin on their faces. He gave everyone a 'what' look.

Mukti: So Manik, Nandini se bat kar raha tha?

Manik: Ya. So what?

Mukti: So nothing. Aisa kya bol diya usne jo itna smile kar raha hai?

Cabir: Mukti. Kya puch rahi hai tu bhi. Ye dono ko romantic baton ke alawa kuch aur aata kaha hai.

Aliya interrupted: Oh stop it you both.

Dhruv: Yeah! Seriously jab dekho dono ko tease karte rehte ho. Let them be!

Mukti pulled his cheeks: Aww Dhruv. You are such a good boy.

Everyone chuckled and then Dhruv stood up to brink some juice for Aliya. He was coming back when a guy pushed him and he fell down. They apologised and Dhruv didn't say a word and started walking. But Manik got very angry as that guy was laughing with his friends. He stood up and walked towards them angrily. Mukti, Aliya and Cabir also came there. Everyone looked at those guys angrily folding there hands. As soon as fab5 came there those guys got scared

1st boy: Sorry sorry Manik.

Manik smirked: Thodi der pehle you were laughing na? Ab sorry bolke to kam nahi chalega.

Mukti: So guys kya kare iske sath?

Cabir: Ise chhod diya jaye ya Maar diya jaaye.( He chuckled at his own joke.)

Manik: I guess they have forgotten what happens when you mess with fab5.

2nd boy: We are really sorry. Please let us go.

Manik held his collar and looked at him with anger. He thought how can anyone mess with his buddy. At the same time, Nandini came there and was looking at Manik with a sad expression. Manik was about to punch him but he saw Nandini standing there. His fist was an inch away from hitting his nose but he stopped with a jerk and pushed the guy away. Fab4 were shocked as they thought Manik would never leave anyone who messes with them. Cabir saw Nandini standing there so he understood what made him stop. He shouted," you all just leave before anything bad happens." Those guys ran away from there and Manik left the canteen and Nandini followed him. They were on the stairs behind the music block. Manik was standing there with an angry-sad expression and Nandini stood in front of him. Manik went near Nandini and held her hands in his.

Manik: I am sorry. I know you hate all this.

Nandini interrupted: Manik don't say sorry. Tumne apne aap ko control kiya for me. And that's what matters the most.

Manik didn't say anything and looked straight in her eyes. She tip toed and placed a soft kiss on his forehead. She cupped his face and said looking into his eyes," I trust you Manik. I don't know what have you done till date but I know aage se tum kabhi koi galat kam nahi karoge. I know you love me too much to betray my trust."

Manik hugged her tightly and said," Yes baby. I will never do anything that would betray your trust." Nandini hugged him with equal force and smiled. They broke the hug and joined the others in the canteen. Abhi also joined them and everyone had their breakfast together. After that they saw Harshad going somewhere so MukBhi followed him and the others went to ManBir's room. Harshad was going towards the store room and was again and again looking here and there. MukBhi silently followed him without letting him notice. He entered the store room and locked it. Mukti called Manik and told him everything. At the same time, MaNan Cavya and Dhrulya were in ManBir's room and they started listening what Harshad is speaking. They understood he was taking to some other guy.

Harshad: So tumhe kuch pata chala?

Aryamann: Nothing new Harshad.

Harshad: Okay. Thanks bro! Tumne bohot help ki meri.

Aryamann: It's okay dude! We are best friends. Itna to banta hai. But what's your plan?

Harshad: My plan has 3 simple steps.

1st step: Create problems between Manik and Cabir.

Aryamann: But us se kya hoga?

Harshad: Manik aur Cabir ke beech problems hojayengi to fab5 tut jayega. So the 2nd step is Manik ko uske pyaar se mera matlab Nandini se durr karna hai.

Aryamann shocked: What? Why do you want to do that?

Harshad: Shut up man! And the 3rd step is to hurt Nandini beyond repair. Uske bina Manik Malhotra to puri tarah destroy hojayega.

Everyone was listening to this silently without speaking anything. Manik was fuming with anger; Nandini had tears in her eyes; Cabir was very angry and the others were so shocked to speak anything. Mukbhi also joined them and Aliya explained everything. They both were equally shocked.

Aliya: I can't believe this! Bhai

Manik angrily: Your brother is crossing his limits now. I will not let this happen. I am gonna just kill him right now.

He stood up from the bed and was about to walk out of the door but Nandini stopped him.

Nandini: Manik please stop. Tum itna gussa karoge toh sab kharab hojayega. Wo kuch aur sochega. Atleast we know about the plan so we are safe.

Manik: Do you have any idea what you are talking about? Harshad fab5 ko todna chahta hai, he wants to seperate us and he wants to hurt you badly. How can I let this happen?

Nandini: It won't happen Manik. Trust me.

Manik: I cannot just sit here and watch everything. Harshad can do anything to achieve his goals.

Nandini cupped his face: Manik is your friendship so week that it will break becaise of Harshad?

Manik: No. Our bond is too strong.

Nandini: Kya humara pyaar itna kamzor hai? Kya tumhe humare pyaar par bharosa nahi hai?

Manik also cupped her face: Our love is so strong that no force break us. Humare beech koi nahi aa sakta.

Nandini: Exactly Manik. Tum logo ki friendship is very strong to break and so is our love. We just have to be brave. We need to fight for us, for friendships and for love.

Manik: You are right Nandini. And jahan tak bat rahi tumhe hurt karne ki to I will not let that jerk even touch you.

Nandini smiled and hugged him tightly and Manik also hugged her with equal force. Others looked at them with awe. Cabir hugged Nandini from back and slowly everyone joined them. After some time, everyone broke the hug and again sat on their places. Aliya was weeping silently and Dhruv noticed it. He side hugged her and said," Aliya hume pata hai it's difficult for you. But you have to be strong. Hum sab hai na tumhare sath." Aliya gave a faint smile. Then Manik went near her and held her hand and said," Aliya please stop crying. We are your family." Aliya said," But he is my brother and I miss him." Abhi went near her and said," Aree Aliya don't worry. Mai tumhara bhai hu." Cabir also said," Yes Aliya. I am also your brother who loves you a lot." Manik said happily," Look you have 3 brothers now. Me, Cabir and Abhimanyu too. Aren't you happy now?" Mukti said," Ab to khush ho ja Aliya." Nandini came there and kept her hand on her shoulder and said," You are very lucky to have these 4 people in your life. So forget what's bad and be happy." Aliya smiled and said," Guys You all are the best. I LOVE YOU ALL." Everyone else also said in unison," WE LOVE YOU TOO."

After that, everyone left to their rooms. Cabir wanted to spend some time with Navya so he told her to stay and Manik happily went with Nandini towards her room.

They were walking towards their room holding their hands when Harshad came there and smirked looking at them. Manik started walking faster holding her hand tightly. They entered Nandini's room and Manik started kissing her passionately after closing the door. Nandini also gave in and Manik removed her top while kissing and pushed her on the bed. He climbed on her and started kissing her senseless all over. He gave her love bites and she was no less. She also did the same. They started making out and after a few hours they were lying naked under a blanket cuddling each other.

Nandini: Manik I love you.

Manik: I love you more baby. Ek bat puchu?

Nandini: Han baby.

Manik: Are you scared? I mean because of that jerk?

Nandini cutely: No baby. Tum mere sath ho to mai kyu darungi.

Manik looked at her cute adorable face and couldn't stop from pecking her pouty lips.

Manik: You are such a cutie pie.

Nandini giggled and again snuglled closer to him and he wrapped his arms protectively around her. Suddenly Manik got up and picked her clothes and gave it to her to which she gave confusing look. Nandini said like a baby," I wanna be in your arms." Manik smiled and said," koi aajayega na Nandu. Just wear your clothes na then I will hold you tight in my arms." Nandini just nodded and Manik made her wear her clothes and Nandini did the same. Nandini sat on the bed throwing her arms in the air and Manik was about to go on the bed but someone knocked on the door.

Manik gave her a 'I told you' look and opened the door to find all their friends standing there with a grin on their faces. He sighed and then Nandini also came out.

Cabir: Bohot time de diya tum dono ko. Ab let's go to the canteen. Bhook lagi hai.

Manik: Yeah! Chalo.

Everyone started leaving for the canteen when Manik got a call and told everyone to leave and he stopped there to pick up the call. He was talking with someone on the call and then he started walking after the call. Suddenly he stopped when he heard a familiar voice. He looked inside the door and gave a disgusted look to see the two people together whom he hates the most.

He saw Harshad and Nyonika talking with each other.

Nyonika: I don't want any mistakes this time.

Harshad: Don't worry Mrs M iss bar koi galati nahi hogi.

Manik walked away from there in anger and said to himself," So Nyonika you are the master mind eh? But don't forget I have unfortunately got your traits. I wont let anything happen. Just wait and watch."

CHAPTER 12

RECAP: MaNanBir reunion.

Fab5 and Nandini's plan against Harshad.

Nandini went to Navya in the canteen during the lunch break acting as if she is crying. She hugged Navya and said," I am sorry Navya. I am so sorry. Maine bohot badi mistake kar di. Please mujhe maaf kar do." Navya broke the hug and wiped her tears and said," Kya hua Nandu? Baitho yaha aur batao hume." Nandini sat on the chair beside Navya and Harshad was just looking at her with an angry expression. Nandini looked down and didn't speak anything.

Harshad: What happened Nandini? Why are you here now? Tumhare friends kaha hai?

Nandini: Harshad. I am sorry. Maine tumhe galat samjha. Wo fab5 na they are devils. And Manik. (She stopped and made a sad face.)

Navya: Kya hua Nandu? Kya kiya us rakshas ne?

Nandini: Fab5 mujhe music room me le gaye subah aur darwaza band kar diya. And Manik ne kaha ki he wanted me to break my friendship with you both isiliye wo mere sath itna acha behave kar raha tha. And then unhone mujhe waha bohot pareshan kiya.

Navya side hugged her and said," Nandu. Chup hojao. Rona achi bat nahi hai. Hum kuch karenge."

At the same time fab5 came from behind. Everyone had their evil smile on their faces. Manik came and held Nandini's hand and pulled her and said," Aww..Poor girl!" Nandini jerked her hand and stepped back. Seeing this Harshad and Navya came and stood with Nandini. Navya held Nandini's shoulder.

Nandini: Manik Malhotra stay away from me. Tum sab khudko samjhte kya ho? Bhagwan ho? Huh? Fab5 ho to kya hua? Mai nahi darti kisi se. Samjhe tum.

Manik smirked and said: Nandini Murthy. You have no idea tumne kis se panga liya hai. Just wait and watch.

Nandini: No. You wait and watch Mr. Manik Malhotra.

Nandini stormed out of the canteen dragging Navya with her and Harshad also went out smirking. After they reached the door Nandini turned and winked at them and fab5 just smiled.

Cabir: Yeh Nandu ko actress ban jana chahiye.

Manik: Han sahi bol raha hai tu.

Aliya: Ya guys she was too good.

Meanwhile, Nandini, Navya and Harshad went to the backyard.

Harshad: So Nandini, Tum ab humare sath ho.

Nandini: Yes. And I am sorry. I don't know what was I thinking when I believed that monster!

Harshad: Well in that case. It's okay. And don't worry. Hum fab5 se badla zarur lenge.

Nandini: Yes. We will.

Navya: Han aap theek keh rahe hai.

Nandini: Btw Harshad do you have anything in your mind?

Harshad smirked: Yes I have a plan. Humara target Manik hoga. Fab5 ki jan Manik hai aur usko kuch hoga to fab5 will break.

Nandini was sacred but she replied with a normal tone: What are you thinking Harshad?

Harshad: We will attack on his hands. Agar wo guitar hi play nahi kar payega to uski life hell ban jayegi. Then it will be a perfect revenge.

Nandini was hell scared now and she said: What can we do?

Harshad: Okay. So the plan is that Nandini will convince Manik to practice for their project in the evening. I will change Manik's guitar strings with very sharp strings. And when he will play the guitar uske fingers damage ho jayenge. And then Nandini tum lights off karke bahar chali jaogi and then I will take charge and uske bad ka plan tum mujhpe chod do.

Nandini was shocked: What? Ye sab kuch zada nahi ho raha hai?

Navya: Nandu uss rakshas ke sath aisa hi hona chahiye.

Harshad: Navya is right. He has to pay for every single thing he has done with others.

Nandini: Hmm. So plan kab execute karna hai?

Harshad: Tomorrow evening. So see you both tomorrow. Bye.

Nandini didn't reply as she was hell shocked and Navya said with a smile: Bye Harshad ji.

IN THE EVENING

Nandini went to the music room at sharp 7 pm as she had to meet fab5 there. She was waiting for everyone and at the same time she was thinking about Hrashad's evil plan. She was thinking about this and Manik's face flashed in front of her eyes and tears started rolling down to her cheeks. At the same time fab5 entered the music room. Nandini saw everyone and they were smiling. Nandini was so scared for Manik so she ran and hugged Manik tighly while crying. Everyone was shocked to see Nandini like this. Manik also hugged her back and started rubbing her back as he sensed that she is crying. After a few seconds Manik broke the hug.

Manik: Nandini what happened? Why are you crying? (He said while wiping her tears)

Nandini: Woh.. Woh. Harshad.

Manik: Harshad? Usne firse kuch kiya?

Nandini: Nahi Manik. Woh..

Cabir: Nandu kya hua? Please tell us.

Aliya: Guys can't you see she is scared. Let her sit and then ask your questions.

Everyone sat on the chairs forming a circle. They looked at Nandini with questioning eyes.

Nandini: I think we should drop this plan.

Mukti: What? Are you crazy? It's for Navya.

Nandini: I know it's for Navya. But

Manik: But what Nandini?

Nandini: Manik uska plan tumhe hurt karne ka hai. I can't take such a big risk. (She tells the whole plan to everyone and everyone is shocked except Manik.)

Manik kept his hand on Nandini's hand and said: Nandini, Don't worry. Mujhe kuch nahi hoga.

Nandini: But Manik.

Manik: No buts and ifs. The plan is on. And there is nothing to worry as I know what the plan is. So guys chill.

Everyone agrees with Manik.

Mukti, Aliya and Dhruv leave from there making some excuse. Now only MaNanBir are there in the music room. Nandini is still scared for Manik and Manbir could clearly see that from her face. Manik and Cabir smiled looking at each other.

Cabir: Meri junglii billi ko kya hogaya hai?

Nandini: Cabir it's not funny. I am scared for Manik. Tumne hi to kaha tha that he is dangerous.

Manik stood up and held Nandini's hand made her stand. He held her shoulders and said," Yes he is dangerous but for you. I am Manik Malhotra. I am not scared of anyone. In fact he should be scared of me." Nandini said," But Manik." Manik interrupted and said," Nandini. Please stop worrying. Kuch nahi hoga mujhe. I promise." And he hugged Nandini and Nandini also gave in. Cabir said in his dramatic tone," Mujhe bhul gaye na. Akele akele hug kar rahe ho." Manik and Nandini chuckled and then Manik and Nandini broke the hug and went near Cabir and hugged him together. They stayed like this for a long time and after breaking their hug they went back to their respective rooms and dozed off.

NEXT MORNING

Nandini woke up early around 6 am and got ready by 6:30 am. She sat on her study table to study for a while but she couldn't concentrate. So she decided to go to the Music room. She headed to the music room and when she reached there she saw Manik in the music room. She was surprised to see him so early and that too totally ready for school. Nandini went near Manik who was busy playing his guitar. Manik felt someone's presence so he turned around and saw Nandini. They both smiled looking at each other. Nandini sat on the chair in front of Manik.

Nandini: So Mr. Manik Malhotra you woke up so early today.

Manik: Yes. Waise itni subah subah yaha kya kar rahi ho tum?

Nandini: Mai aaj jaldi uth gayi au raise hi aagayi music room me. Tum yaha itni subah subah kaise?

Manik: Mai bhi bas yun hi aa gaya tha.

Nandini: Hmm..

Manik: Ab tum yaha aane ka sahi reason bataogi ya mai apne tarike se bulwau?

Nandini smiled: Tumhe kaise pata Manik?

Manik: I know we were away from each other for 5 longs years. But I know you very well Angel. So please tell me the real reason.

Nandini held Manik's hand tightly and said: Manik I am scared. Tumhe kuch nahi hoga na?

Manik made her stand and cupped her face and said: Nandu kuch nahi hoga mujhe. You only said na that aiyappaa won't let anything wrong happen to anyone.

Nandini smiled and nodded her head in yes like a child. After a few minutes they both went out. Manik's hand was around Nandini's shoulder and they were walking. Suddenly they saw Harshad and Navya coming towards them. They both were talking so they didn't see Manik and Nandini. Manik held Nandini's hand and pulled her inside a classroom and as they entered the classroom Nandini slipped and they both fell down. Nandini was on top of Manik. They both just kept staring at each other. They were lost in each other's eyes.( ISHQ BULAAVA IN BG) Manik's hands were holding her waist and Nandini's hands were on his chest. Manik slowly moved his hand towards her face and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ears and he cupped her face gently and was lost in her eyes. Nandini was also lost in his eyes and she moved closer to Manik's face. Manik started caressing her face with his thumb and his other hand slowly started moving towards her hips. And then she realised in what position they were so she got up abruptly and Manik also got up. Nandini was looking here and there to avoid any eye contact while Manik was just staring at Nandini.

Nandini: I will see you at class. Bye.

Manik: Ya. Bye.

Nandini went out and started thinking about what had just happened. Manik was also thinking about Nandini and unknowingly a smile appeared on their faces.

PRECAP: Harshad's secret revealed in front of everyone.

Navya decides to go back to Patna for a while.

CHAPTER 17

Everyone was enjoying their day to the fullest but Manik Malhotra was the only one who looked frustrated. He wanted to be with her girl alone away from everyone but he couldn't as no one left them alone. After some time the dj party started and all the teachers left leaving the students alone to enjoy the party. Cabir and Mukti were the first ones to go on the dance floor and slowly everyone joined them. Aliya was looking for an opportunity to dance with Manik so with all her courage she went towards Manik who was sitting with Dhruv and Nandini.

Aliya: Manik.

Manik: Han Aliya.

Aliya: Come na, Let's dance!

She gave her hand to Manik and Manik couldn't reject her best friend so he held her hand with a fake smile and left with her to the dance floor. Nandini never hated Aliya but today she felt bad as Manik left with Aliya. She didn't know what she was feeling. After a few minutes, she saw Aliya dancing very cosily with Manik and unknowingly she crushed the glass of cold drink in her hand. After a few seconds she realised what she was doing. She said to herself," Why am I feeling jealous of Aliya? She is Manik's best friend and mine friend too. Ya right she is just his best friend. But no.. Nooo.. Manik ko mere sath dance karna chahiye. Why is he dancing with Aliya? Arghhh.." She was brought out of the trance when Dhruv shaked her shoulder.

Dhruv: Nandini. Are you fine? Kaha kho gayi ho?

Nandini: Kuch nahi Dhruv. I am bored.

Dhruv: So let's dance.

He gave his hand to Nandini. Nandini was confused. She didn't understand what she should do. She looked at Manik who was looking at her. She smirked and accepted to dance with Dhruv and held his hand. Manik said to himself," What is she doing? Why did she hold Dhruv's hand?" They both walked towards the dance floor and joined their friends. Mukti and Cabir were dancing like idiots. Manik was also with them. Then Aliya again came closer to Manik. Manik didn't notice as he was busy staring at Nandini who was smiling a few seconds back while dancing but suddenly her face expression turned into an angry one. Manik tried to ask her with his eyes but she turned her face away. Then Manik realised that Aliya was very close to him and he got to know that Nandini was being jealous and he smirked. Manik went near Nandini while dancing without letting Aliya notice that. He went near her and kept his hand around her shoulder and started dancing with her. Nandini blushed when Manik did this and she also danced happily. But Aliya noticed this and became angry and she stared angrily while looking at Nandini. After some time, the party was over and everyone left to their respective rooms. While going to the girls hostel Aliya, Mukti and Nandini were talking.

Mukti: It was so much fun!

Aliya: Ya Mukti you are right.

Nandini: Ya I also enjoyed a lot.

Mukti: Why wouldn't you? Miss Fresher.

Aliya felt jealous and she said: Btw Mukti. Don't you think Manik looked hot today?

Mukti: Ya he does every time. Aur tu bhi kuch kam hot nahi lag rahi thi. You are perfect for him.

Nandini didn't like what Mukti said and her expression changed. Aliya saw that and felt happy about it. She smirked and said: Mukti. Are you serious?

Mukti: Obviously. And I am sure one day he will realise how much you love him.

Aliya just blushed and Nandini was hell shocked. She said to herself," Aliya loves Manik?"

They reached their rooms and after saying bye to each other they went inside their respective rooms. Nandini went inside her room and locked it. She changed into her night dress and freshened up. She sat on the bed holding her jar of fireflies. Meanwhile, Manik and Cabir were in their room. Manik was lying on his bed and thinking about today. He closed his eyes and remembered the time when he was so close to Nandini and was about to kiss her. He saw her face while blushing. Thinking about Nandini brought a smile on his face. Cabir noticed this and went near his bed and sat next to him. Manik opened his eyes and saw Cabir smirking at him. So he got up immediately and sat on the bed. He knew that Cabir had seen him smiling.

Manik: Cabir! I know tune mujhe smile karte hue dekha. So what? Can't I smile?

Cabir: Han han smile to kar sakta hai. Par kya sochke itna smile kar raha hai?

Manik: Wohh.

Cabir: Nandini. Hai na?

Manik smiled hearing her name and he didn't say anything. Cabir also didn't say anything for a while.

Cabir: Manik Malhotra is in love!

Manik: What? Love? Tu pagal hogaya hai?

Cabir: Mai pagal nahi hu. Tu pagal hogaya hai Nandu ke pyaar me.

Manik: Cabir! Please so ja. Tera dimaag thik nahi hai.

Cabir didn't say anything and went to his bed. Manik also went to his bed and started thinking about what Cabir had said. He then started thinking about Nandini and he started smiling like a fool. He realised that he is smiling while thinking about a girl and that too his best friend. He said to himself," Nandini ke bare me itna kyu soch raha hu mai. What is happening with me? Whenever she is close to me my heart skips a beat. She is so beautiful and breath taking and her smile, she just drives me crazy. Today she looked so pretty and the way she blushes. Wow! She is an angel. Aaj Nandini ke itna close tha mai but Mukti ruined that moment. We were about to kiss! But wait! Why am I thinking about her so much? Cabir jo bol raha tha wo sach.. No No..He is not right. I don't... May be I do.. Arghh.. I should just sleep." He closed his eyes and tried to sleep.

Meanwhile, Nandini was sitting on her bed talking to her fireflies. She closed her eyes and some memories flashed in front of her. She saw that she and Manik were on the terrace staring at the stars and she had the jar of fireflies in her hand. The fireflies were glowing. She also remembered that once Manik was crying because he was feeling lonely and then she hugged him saying that she was with him. She was smiling all the time while remembering about her past. She then started thinking about the time spent with Manik today and all their moments. When she remembered how close they were when Manik dragged her into some corner a smile appeared on her face. But suddenly she remembered Mukti saying that Aliya loves Manik. She said to herself," So what if Aliya loves Manik? Why am I feeling bad about it? They both are my friends and I should be happy about it. But Manik mere sath rehta hai humesha. And today we both were so close to each other that we could have kissed if Mukti hadn't come. And I was feeling very happy at that moment. Manik jab bhi mere sath hota hai to I just feel happy. I don't know what is happening with me? What is this strange feeling? Arghhh. I am going mad. I should just sleep." With this she lied down on her bed. Meanwhile, Manik was feeling restless. He couldn't sleep. So he decided to meet Nandini. He sneaked in to the girl's hostel and went towards Nandini's room. He reached there and was about to knock when Aliya came out of her room which was close to Nandini's room. She saw Manik and went near him.

Aliya: Manik! Tum yaha kya kar rahe ho?

Manik: Wohh.. Aliya. Maii..

Aliya smiled and said: Woh mai kya?

Manik: I came to meet..

Aliya interrupted: Aww.. You came to meet me.

Manik didn't know what to do so he just gave her a fake smile. Nandini heard some noise out so she stood up and opened her door slightly and saw Manik and Aliya together. As soon as she opened the door Aliya hugged Manik. Manik was irritated so he didn't hug her back. Nandini looked at them and a tear escaped from her eye. Manik looked up and saw Nandini looking at them. They both looked at each other for a while and the suddenly Nandini closed the door and went inside and lied down on her bed. She wiped her tears and went to sleep with an angry expression. Manik felt bad so he held Aliya's shoulders and broke her hug.

Manik: Aliya. I think I should go now.

Aliya: Okay! Bye Good night.

Manik smiled and went back to his room. He lied on her bed and said to himself," Nandini kya soch rahi hogi mere bare me? She saw Aliya hugging me. Mai to us se milne gaya tha. Arghhh.. Pata nahi ab mera kya hoga. She was looking so sad."

NEXT MORNING

Manik couldn't sleep the whole night so he woke up late and saw that Cabir was not there. He checked the time and realised that he missed the assembly. He stood up and got ready as fast as possible and went to the canteen where fab4 and Nandini were already waiting for him. He looked at Nandini who was sad today. He came near them and sat on the chair beside Nandini. Nandini was annoyed so she shifted her chair a little away from him. Manik felt bad about it. Manik wished good morning with a smile but Nandini didn't even look at Manik and replied the same without smiling. Manik was upset and Cabir also notice Nandini's strange behaviour. Everyone finished their breakfast. At the same time, a girl entered the canteen and everyone kept looking at her. She smiled and boys started commenting on her.

Boy 1: Aree dekh yaar ye wahi hai kya?

Boy 2: Han wahi hai. Hot lag rahi hai.

Boy 3: Woww! Pehle kabhi aisi ladki nahi dekhi.

Fab5 and Nandini looked at that girl. Everyone was just shocked. Harshad also saw her and he was also shocked. Cabir was drinking water and he spit the water from his mouth after looking at her. The girl came walking towards fab5 and Nandini.

Nandini: Navya!

Navya: Hi Nandu! How are you?

Everyone was shocked to see her like this. The girl who used to wear a super long skirt wore a short skirt revealing her long legs. She used to wear long socks and now her socks were ankle length. The girl who used to tie her hair in two plates was now having open hairs with side fringes. She was completely changed and her voice resembled her confidence. Everyone was just staring at her so she smiled and took a seat on their table.

Navya: I know I know. Tum sab mujhe dekh kar shock hogaye honge.

Nandini: Han Navya. We are shocked. But tumhe kya hogaya hai?

Navya smiled: Kuch nahi Nandu! Achi nahi lag rahi hu kya?

Nandini: Navya you look very pretty!

Navya smiled: Thank you! Waise ab mai purani wali Navya nahi hu jo kisi ke bhi jaal me phas jaye. Aur mai ab bilkul thik hu aur sab bhula chuki hu.

Everyone was happy hearing this from her. But Navya still had some questions to ask from Nandini.

Navya: Nandu tumne mujhe bataya nahi tum aur fab5 friends kaise bane?

Nandini: Wohh.. Navya!

Manik smiled and said: Navya, Nandu meri aur Cabir ki bachpan ki friend hai. (Manik put his arm around Nandini's shoulder after saying this.)

Navya: What? To mujhe batay kyu nahi Nandu?

Nandini explained everything to Navya and Navya was happy hearing about this. But she was still afraid of fab5. She told this to everyone and everyone chuckled. Nandini said that she should also be friends with them and everyone agreed. After some time they realised they are late for the class. So everyone left to attend the class. Nandini ignored Manik the whole time and sat with Navya in all the classes. Manik was feeling very bad and now he was angry also. He was angry because her Nandu was ignoring her and he couldn't take it anymore. When all the classes were finished, Nandini was going back to her room. She was alone. Manik was going behind her and suddenly he went close to Nandini and pulled her into a room and locked it. Nandini was scared at first but when she saw Manik she became very angry.

Nandini: Manik! Tum kya kar rahe ho?

Manik: Nandini! Tum kya kar rahi ho?

Nandini: Maine kya kiya hai?

Manik: Tum mujhe subah se ignore kar rahi ho. You didn't even talk with me.

Nandini didn't say anything and looked away. Manik touched her face to make her look towards him but she jerked his hand. He tried 2 3 times but she did the same. Manik couldn't control his anger now so he pinned Nandini to the wall. Nandini tried to escape but Manik kept his hands on the wall. Nandini glared at Manik angrily.

Manik: Now tell me what is wrong with you?

Nandini: Mai tumpe gussa hu aur tum mujhe puch rahe ho ki what's wrong with me!

Manik: Why are you angry?

Nandini: Kal rat ko tum Aliya ke sath kya kar rahe the?

Manik: Nandu! I came to meet you but Aliya ne mujhe dekh liya and she hugged me thinking that I came to meet her.

Nandini's anger vanished in seconds and she looked down. Manik smirked and he was back to his mischievous mode. He touched Nandini's face and she looked up.

Manik: So Nandini Murthy. You were jealous han!

Nandini: Jealous? Are you mad? No not at all.

Manik smirked: Oh really?

Nandini: Yes I was jealous because I don't want any other girl close to you.

Manik looked intently at Nandini and Nandini looked down realising what she had just said. Manik smiled looking at her and made her look at him. Manik felt very happy after listening to that so he just hugged her as tight as possible. Nandini also hugged her back with same force. Nandini clutched Manik's jacket tightly. They stayed in that position for a long time. They both were very happy. After some time, they broke the hug and looked at each other intently. Nandini was feeling shy by the way Manik looked at her so she started blushing and Manik just smiled looking at her.

Nandini: Manik. I should go now.

Manik smirked: No. Let's finish what we left yesterday.

He moved closer to her lips and Nandini also went close to him. She kept her hands on his shoulders. Manik's hands were on her waist holding her lightly. Manik was lost in her eyes and Nandini took the advantage of it and suddenly she pecked on his cheeks and ran away. She stopped at the door and turned back.

Nandini: Bye Manik.

Manik screamed: Nandini!

She left smiling at him and Manik also smiled as she left. He ruffled his hair and said to himself," Nandini! You are driving me crazy!"

CHAPTER 38

NEXT MORNING

Manik was sleeping like a baby on his stomach but his slumber was disturbed by the alarm. He sat on the bed with closed eyes and then unwillingly got ready and went to the music room and sat on the chair waiting for Nandini. Nandini came there after some time and saw him sleeping on the chair. She smiled and went towards him. She caressed his face very lightly not to wake him up and placed a soft peck on his forehead. She then sat on the chair beside him and kept staring at him. First she thought of practicing but that would wake him up so she dropped the idea and kept looking at his baby like face. After some time, Manik opened his eyes and saw Nandini looking at him with a smile on her face. He sat straight and smirked looking at her. He was about to say something but was cut off by Nandini. She said," Mr. Malhotra before you ask anything or start teasing me let me tell you I was just looking at my baby like cute boyfriend's face. And I don't think there's anything wrong in that." Manik smiled and said," So Miss Murthy thinks that her boyfriend is cute." She just nodded cutely and Manik cupped her face. He tucked her hairs behind her ear and moved closer to her face and said," But Miss Murthy don't you know my girlfriend is the cutest creature in this whole universe." Nandini started blushing and Manik said while caressing her face," And you look cuter when you blush like this."

Nandini blushed harder and then to hide her blush she placed her lips on his and sucked them very softly and Manik also responded by kissing her softly. They broke the kiss and wished each other good morning and then started practicing. After that, they started walking towards the assembly hall and Manik held her hand while walking. Nandini entwined their fingers and said," Manik from tomorrow we will practice in the evening." Manik said," Why baby?" Nandini said," I know it's difficult for you to wake up so early. So we can" Manik stopped walking and came in front of her. He said," Baby I know mujhe aadat nahi hai. But I can do anything for you. And I would love to see you first every morning." Nandini just smiled and said," You are so sweet Manik." Manik gave his signature cute smile only reserved only for Nandini and then it turned into a mischievous smirk. He said," And iss tarah I can kiss you every morning without any disturbance." Nandini playfully punched his stomach and started walking followed by Manik. They reached the assembly hall hand in hand not bothering about others. Their friends saw them and smiled. MaNan left each other's hand and went towards their places. Nandini joined the girls and Manik joined the boys. After the assembly, all the students went to the classroom. MaNan, Cavya, Mukbhi and Dhrulya sat together but around each other. Aryamann was sitting beside MaNan's bench and observing everything and was trying to listen everything they were talking.

The whole day went like this only. Without letting anyone notice, Aryamann was spying on fab5 and Nandini especially on MaNan. He was having second thoughts for doing this but he still did this for his best friend. In the evening after all the classes had finished, fab5, Navya and Abhi were sitting in the backyard of the school. They were waiting for Nandini to come who was in the class asking some doubts to the teacher. Meanwhile, Nandini was done with her doubts so she went towards the backyard where everyone was waiting for her. She was running towards them when suddenly Mukti saw that an iron rod was about to hit her and she shouted her name. Everyone turned towards her and Manik ran towards her shouting her name but she was too far to listen their shouts. The rod was about to hit her but Manik was still away from her but someone else held her hand and pulled her towards him and at the same time the rod fell just beside Nandini. The guy was Aryamann and Nandini started crying as she was scared. For a second, Manik's heart stopped beating but when he saw her safe he left a sigh of relief and went towards her. Aryamann saw her sobbing and told her to relax and stop crying by holding her shoulder gently. But she was not able to stop her tears. Manik came there and pulled her towards her and hugged her as tight as possible. Nandini also hugged him with equal force and burried her face in his chest. Manik's eyes were full of tears and now Nandini has stopped crying.

So he broke the hug and checked each and every part of her body to see whether she is hurt or not. Meanwhile, a man came and apologised for his mistake. Cabir got very angry and was about to hit him for putting Nandini's life in danger but Aryamann handled the situation. Meanwhile, Manik cupped her face and wiped her tears and then placed a soft peck on her forehead. Then Cabir also hugged her tightly and everyone came around her.

Manik went near Aryamann and hugged him and after breaking the hug he said," Thank you so much for saving her life." Aryamann smiled and said," It's my pleasure bro!" Cabir said," Really thank you aryamann." Aryamann said," Really it's okay guys. It was my duty." Then everyone started thinking that he is a good guy. Nandini then came near them and stood beside Manik holding his hand. Manik turned to face her and looked at her sadly to which she gave a smile to assure that she is fine. Nandini looked towards Aryamann and said," Thank you Aryamann." Aryamann said," Ab bas karo guys. It was my duty. And I hope now I am not in your bad books. I really didn't have any bad intensions." Manik said," You are in our good books now. Anyways, guys let's go. My baby needs some rest." Everyone smiled and Manik started walking by holding Nandini's hand followed by others. Manik walked towards NavNi's room and made Nandini sit on the bed comfortably ans he sat in front of her holding her hand.

Navya went out saying that she is going to meet Cabir to give them some privacy. He brought her hand towards his chest and placed it on his heart and then bent down and kissed on her hand. Nandini was looking at him lovingly. Manik looked up and then suddenly pulled her into a tight hug and said," Nandini tumhe kuch hojata to I would have died. You should be careful na. Nai nai. Actually it's my fault. I should not have left you alone." Nandini broke the hug and said cupping his face," Manik I am fine na. Look at me I am totally fine and please don't blame yourself." She wiped the tears which were flowing from his eyes and then kisses his eyes one by one. Meanwhile, Navya went to Cabir's room and saw that he was sad. She pulled him in a hug and rubbed his back to console him. Navya said," Cabir stop crying. Please. Nandu theek hai. She is fine." Cabir said," I was so scared at that moment. I have cried for years thinking that she is.. I just can't afford to loose her. She is my little sister. My best friend." Navya broke the hug and kissed on his forehead and said," I know. She is an angel and no one of us can afford to loose her. But she is fine and she will be with us forever." Cabir just smiled and Navya softly kissed on his lips and he also gave in. The kiss was soft, passionate and full of emotions. Cabir said against her lips," I love you." Navya blushed and said," I love you too."

Meanwhile, Manik was sitting on the bed and Nandini was lying on him resting her head on his chest and holding his hand while hia other hand was wrapped around her waist. She was playing with his fingers and writting on his palm with her fingers. She wrote her name or their names together or i love you on his palm and Manik silently admired her cuteness. After some time, Manik cuppee her face with his hand and Nandini looked towards him and Manik softly kissed her lips and she also responded with equal passion and love. After breaking the kiss, Manik pulled Nandini up and made her sit on his lap facing him. He started kissing her neck passionately and gave her love bites and Nandini was moaning in pleasure and then suddenly Manik started tickling her and she started laughing like a maniac. Nandini fell on her back while laughing and Manik came over her tickling her here and there. She was laughing a lot and the Manik suddenly stopped tickling her and kissed her passionately pinning her hands on the bed. She was taken aback with this sudden kiss but then she also kissed him wildly. He then started kissing her neck, bit her ear lobe while fondling her curves and her hands pulled her closer and closer. Nandini was moaning and after some time, Manik stopped and lied down beside her. They both were breathing heavily and Nandini said," Manik. You are so wild." Manik said worriedly," Kya mai tumhe hurt karta hu?" Nandini smiled and said," No baby. I love it. I love this monster."

Manik chuckled and turned towards her and said while playing with her hair," I also love to see your wild side." Nandini just hmm'ed and after some time she turned to face him and said," Manik you will always be with me na?" Manik said," Obviously baby. Always Forever Humesha." Nandini said," Humesha." Manik said," I want to be with you forever, make babies, grow old with you and die lying in your arms." Nandini blushed hard and said," But for babies you have to marry me na." Manik said," But you are already my wifey na. But moreover if you want to make babies then we can do it abhi also." Nandini hit him playfully and hid her face in his chest and Manik chuckled at her cuteness. Manik said," You are such a cutie pie. I love you so much." Nandini kissed his chest and said," I love you more baby." Manik said," Humare childhood promise se you are my wifey but I promise you our wedding day will be the best day of our lives. I will make it very special for you." Nandini just smiled and snuggled closer to him and after some time, they joined everyone for dinner and Aryamann also joined them. Everyone talked with him happily because he saved their angel. He was observing everyone silently, everyone's actions and their behaviour with MaNan. He noticed MaNanBir's bonding and after dinner he went to the music room and met Harshad there.

Harshad: So Aryamann I can see some progress. Great job!

Aryamann: Yeah! But I wanna ask why do you want to destroy them? I have beem spying on them since a long time now but they seem to be normal like us. And Manik he seems to be a nice guy. Actually he loves his friends a lot and his girl friend is her life.

Harshad angrily: So now you are having second thoughts. And you want to switch sides eh?

Aryamann: No dude. I am just asking.

Harshad: You have no idea what these fab5 especially Manik has done. So just speak what have you noticed.

Aryamann: Okay bro! I trust you. So I have seen Manik and Cabir are very close to Nandini. They were very tensed for her. Like really tensed.

Harshad smirked: Bingo! I know what to do. So tum aur kuch din nazar rakho. I will make our plan till then.

Aryamann: Okay. So see you later man!

Saying this he left from there and Harshad smirked. He said to himself," So Manik, Cabir and Nandini are very close. I see. In teeno ko alag kar diya to Manik will break but uske sath fab5 bhi alag hojayenge." He also left from there. Meanwhile, Manik and Cabir were in their room lying on their beds.

Cabir: Manik aaj jo hua us se to meri jan hi nikal gayi thi.

Manik: Ya meri bhi. I was so scared. I just can't afford to loose her Cabir. I love her so much.

Cabir: Yeah I know that. I too can't loose her again.

Manik: Hmm..

Manik texted Nandini and they both chatted for a while and then slept peacefully thinking about each other. It was around 2 am when Manik woke up with a jerk.

He had a nightmare about Nandini going away from him. He was sweating badly. He took his phone and went out of his room. He ran towards the girl's hostel and stood in front of Nandini's room and called her. Nandini woke up with the noise of her ringing phone and as soon as she checked the caller she was scared about why he called so late. She answered the call and asked," What happened Manik? Are you okay?" Manik said," Bahar aao." He cut the call without letting her speak and she immediately went out side. She saw Manik standini taking the support of the wall and was having tears in his eyes. She panicked and went towards him and hugged him tightly and he also hugged her more tightly. She didn't say anything and just rubbed his back to calm him down. Manik was feeling better now so he broke the hug and cupped her face as lightly as possible. He looked straight in her doe like eyes. Nandini softly said," Manik what happened?" Manik said," I love you. Tum mujhe chod kar kabhi mat jana. I can't live without you." Nandini said," I love you more and I will never ever leave you. You are my life baby. Don't ever think that I will leave you. Okay?" Manik said innocently," Okay." Nandini then kissed his lips softly and he also responded with equal love. They broke the kiss and finally Manik smiled and Nandini asked," Now tell me Manik what happened?" Manik said," I had a nightmare jisme tumhe kuch hogaya and." He couldn't say anything further and Nandini didn't even ask him.

She cupped his face and kissed on his forehead and said," Jab tak tum mere sath ho mujhe kuch nahi ho sakta." Manik smiled and said," I will always be with you and protect you." They stayed there for sometime holding each other close and then slept in their respective rooms giving good night kiss to each other.

NEXT MORNING

Manik woke up unwillingly at 6:30 am and was about to go to the washroom but stopped as he saw a message from Nandini. It said," I know you will wake up for me but tum kal ratko achese nahi soye. So Aaj no practice. Please don't argue and sleep again. For me. I love you baby." Manik smiled and replied," Okay princess. But only for today. I love you more." He slept again and at the same time, Nandini read the message and she also slept for some time.

Before the assembly, Aliya and Dhruv were in the assembly hall waiting for their friends. They were stealing glances of each other and blushing. Dhruv's hand was in his pocket and he looked very nervous. He slowly took out his hand and took Aliya's hand in his hand. He made her wear a thin silver bracelet with a heart in the middle with his name engraved on it. She was amazed with it and happily hugged him.

Aliya: Dhruv it's so pretty. Thank you. I love you so much.

Dhruv smiled: I love you too. And it's my pleasure sweetheart.

Aliya just blushed and soon everyone joined them. They noticed Aliya's glowing face and Dhruv's flushed face and started teasing them.

After the assembly and some classes, all the students were taken to the library. MaNan were sitting in a corner with Cavya. Mukbhi and Dhrulya were sitting somewhere else. Nandini was reading a book and Manik was just staring at her and she waa blushing due to his intense gaze. Cavya were romancing forgetting about others. At the same time, Manik noticed that no one was looking at them so he took a book and held it in front of his face. He went closer to Nandini's face and kissed her lips while helding the book in front of them. Nandini was shocked but she also responded. The kiss was short because they were not alone. Manik moved away and acted as if nothing happened. Nandini was blushing hard and Manik was smiling remembering about the kiss. Meanwhile, Mukti was bored so she dragged Abhi outside with her. She pulled him to a corner and placed her hands around his neck. Abhi gave a shocking expression and said," Mukti what are you doing? We are at school." Mukti caressed his face with her finger tip and moved closer to his face and whispered in his ears," As if I care about it." Without letting him speak anything she kissed his lips passionately and then he also responded with equal passion. They broke the kiss and were breathing heavily. Abhi was looking at her lovingly and she waa blushing. After some time, they started going back to the library but Mukti stopped him as she heard Harshad talking to someone angrily. She went near the room from where the voice was coming.

Inside the room,

The man: Sir aapne jo kaha tha maine kiya. Uss ladki par wo rod giraya. To mere paise de do.

Harshad: Maine tumhe kaha na zor se mat bolo. Koi sun lega. Yeh lo tumhare paise. Aaj se mere samne mat aana.

The man left from there and Harshad smirked. Mukti was shocked and Abhi was very angry but Mukti told him to calm down. They rushed towards the library and went near everyone else. Mukti explained everything to others and Manik was fuming with anger. Nandini held her hand to calm him down.

Manik: I knew it! Damn it! How can I forget about Harshad and his dirty mind.

Aliya: I can't believe bhai can fall so low.

Cabir: Seriously. He has to pay for it. Wo kuch kare us se pehle we have to plan something.

Manik: Yeah! This time I won't let him ruin our lives. I won't let anything happen to my Nandini. I swear on myself.

Aliya: But what is he upto? Nandini ko hurt karke bhai ko kya milega?

Manik: He knows Nandini's importance in my life. Obviously he wants to hurt me. Mukti: That jerkshad! How could he do that?

Cabir: Guys! Stop it! We all know what kind of a person he is. So let's not waste time and think what we should do.

Manik: Okay! So he wants to hurt Nandini. To abhi ke liye we won't leave her alone anywhere and at the same time we will spy on him.

Cabir: That sounds cool.

Mukti: I will spy on him.

Aliya: Mukti you are not gonna do that. Bhai is dangerous and we can't let anything happem with you again because of him.

Abhi: Don't worry Aliya. I will be with her.

Manik: Okay. Now about Nandini then I will be with her always. But if I am not there then Aliya you will be with her. Because if you will be with her then Harshad won't do anything.

Aliya: Okay.

Dhruv: I will also be with them in case they need any help.

Cabir: Fine. And I will do my work. Uspe puri nazar rakhne ka kam mera hai. Mukti and Abhi you won't be able to follow his every move but I can. (He smirked and everyone understood what is he talking about except NavNi)

Nandini: What will you do Cabir?

Cabir: Nandu you don't worry about that. Just leave it on me.

Navya: Aree why? Batao na.

Cabir: Don't you guys know Cabir is an expert in spying. I mean I can use cameras and micro phones to record his every single move.

Manik: So the plan is on guys. Keep your eyes open and your mouths shut. I mean don't speak about the plan openly. Maybe he is also spying on his.

Nandini: Okay. So the plan is ready. Toh hum sab class me chale.

Everyone got up and started walking towards their classroom. Manik was holding Nandini's hand tightly because he was too scared to loose her. Nandini entwined their fingers and gave a smile to Manik to which all his worries went flying out of the window. He also smiled looking at him and then they reached the classroom and took their places. No one talked about their plan and behaved as if they don't know anything. After all the classes had finished, the girls went to their rooms and the boys too.

Manik was not ready to leave Nandini but the girls assured him that she is safe with them and promised to be with her while coming to the canteen for dinner.

AT NIGHT.

It was dinner time, so Mukti and Aliya went to NavNi's room. They entered their room and all the girls sat there for a while talking and gossiping and then went outside to leave for the canteen. As they went outside they saw Manik standing there and everyone chuckled and Nandini smiled looking at him.

Mukti: Manik tu yaha kyu aagaya.

Aliya: Obviously he has come for Nandini.

Navya: Chalo hum log aage jate hai. Manik aur Nandini jaldi aajana.

Mukti, Navya and Aliya left giggling and MaNan just smiled looking at each other. Manik held her hand and started walking. After some time, Manik put his hand around her shoulder and pulled her closer. He went near her face and said," I have to be with you all the time and keep you safe. Isiliye mai aaya tha" Nandini said,"But Manik you can't do that all the time na. Mukti, Aliya and Navya the na mere sath." Manik said," But I can't take any risk when it comes to you. Please don't argue." Nandini sighed and said," Okay. Tum mere sath hi rehna pura din puri rat. Happy?" Manik smirked and said," Oh. So rat ko I will come to your room. Tum ne hi kaha na pura din puri rat." Nandini blushed and said," I don't mind baby." Nandini chuckled and Manik too joined her and they reached the canteen in the mean time. They joined there friends and had dinner.

After dinner, all the girls and boys went to their rooms and slept except MaNan. Manik was restless because he wanted to be with Nandini but he couldn't. He was lying on his bed and called Nandini and she picked up in the first ring itself.

Nandini: Hi Manik.

Manik: Hi baby. Where are you? Tum room me hi ho na?

Nandini: Han Manik. Don't worry.

Manik: Hmm..

Nandini: Manik please don't worry na. Navya is with me and I am in my room which is locked. Nothing is going to happen.

Manik: But

Nandini: No buts and ifs. Just stop worrying na.

Manik sighed: Okay. So tomrrow morning I will come to your room and we will go to the music room together.

Nandini: Okay. Now your baby is feeling sleepy.

Manik smiled: So baby sleep na.

Nandini chuckled: Okay Tum bhi so jao. Good night. Sweet dreams. I love you.

Manik: I love you more baby. Good night sweet dreams.

MaNan hanged up the phone and soon they fell asleep. Manik was sleeping on his stomach holding a pillow and Nandini was sleeping on her back holding a pillow. Both were imagining each other in place of the pillow.

CHAPTER 41

After having lunch, everyone was talking and chit chatting with each other in the centre. Manik was looking at Nandini when she was laughing on some lame joke by other students. Nandini looked at him as she felt his intense gaze on her. Nandini raised her eyebrow as if asking 'what are you doing'. Manik just nodded his head and smiled and then Nandini snuggled close to him resting her on his chest and wrapping his arms around his stomach and Manik happily wrapped his arms around her shoulder. Harshad was looking at them with a devilish smirk and thought," These are a few last good moments in your life Manik Malhotra. Enjoy it." At the same time, Aliya saw MaNan lovingly looking at each other wrapped in each others arms. Aliya said," Aww! You both are such cuties. Please be like this forever." Manik pecked on her cheek and said," Yes we will be like this forever. Humesha!" Nandini blushed and said looking into his eyes," Humesha." Everyone looked at them in awe and Cabir clicked a picture of them and sent it on their group with the caption,"Lovestruck!" MaNan came out of their lala land with the message beep but none moved away from each other. Cabir said," Manik Nandini." Manik thought that he will again taunt but to their surprise he smiled and said," Iss bar mein koi taunt nahi marunga. I am really happy to see you both so happy. This is my first and last wish to God to keep you both together and happy forever."

MaNan were just looking at them and then both stood up and hugged him together. Nandini," Cabir you are so sweet." Manik added," Really bro! Thank you so much for that." Soon others also joined them in the hug. Their happy moment was disturbed by Raghav sir and they broke the hug listening to him.

Raghav Sir: So guys, take some rest. We will meet here again at 6 pm. It's 3:30 right now. You all have 2 and half hours. Do whatever you all want but don't go far.

Everyone agreed and some people again sat on the benches in the centre and others went to their tents. Nandini and Aliya were in their tent and Nandini and Aliya fell asleep after some chit chatting. Dhruv was asleel but Manik was not able to sleep. Cavya and Mukbhi were sleeping peacefully in their respective tents. Manik slowly went out of the tent without disturbing Dhruv and went towards Nandini and Aliya's tent and smiled looking at Nandini's serene face. She looks so innocent thought he and slowly lied down on his stomach beside her wrapping his hand around her stomach. He placed a soft kiss on her nose and placed his head on her shoulder. Nandini in sleep kept her hand on his arm clutching his t shirt and then he slept after staring at her for a while. After an hour or so Dhruv woke up and found Manik was missing so he went out searching for him. He exactly knew where he was so he went into Nandini and Aliya's tent and saw him sleeping beside Nandini.

He went near Aliya and shaked her so that she wakes up. Dhruv pointed towards MaNan and she smiled looking at them. Aliya held his hand and they walked out of the tent. They went inside ManRuv's tent and sat theit cuddling each other.

Dhruv: Manik has changed so much. Hai na?

Aliya: Yes really. And I am really happy for him. Nandini is perfect for him.

Dhruv: Hmm. And you are perfect for me. I love you so much Aliya.

Aliya blushed: I love you too Dhruv.

They turned their faces to look at each other and slowly kissed each other. The kiss was slow at first but then grew into a passionate on. Dhruv fell on the mattress and Aliya came on top of him. They started kissing again and Dhruv's hand touched her bare waist due to her short top. He moved his hands slowly up and started caressing her back sending shivers down her spine. He swiftly swapped their positions and started kissing her neck, shoulders and her lips senseless. He pulled down the strap of her top and placed some wet kisses there. He licked her cleavage and all she could do was moan his name again and again. He pulled her top up and kissed her upper body passionately not leaving a single part. She was constantly moaning in pleasure but slowly so that no one can hear her voice. Dhruv removed his t shirt and Aliya came over him and kissed and licked his chest, then his neck and shoulders and then again smacked her lips on his. They broke the kiss after they were out of breath and Aliya placed her head on his chest.

Dhruv: I think we should stop here. Koi aajayega.

Aliya: Hmm..

Aliya sat straight adjusting her top and was blushing remembering their short make out session while Dhruv wore his t shirt with a shy smile on his face. They went out of the tent so that they can control themselves from crossing the limit. At 5:45 pm, Nandini opened her eyes and saw Manik beside her sleeping on his stomach wrapping his arms around her stomach and nuzzling into her neck. She could feel his hot breaths. She kept looking at him and turned herself to face him without disturbing him. She moved closer to his face and placed a soft peck on his nose and then sucked his lips very lightly. Manik smiled and slowly opened his eyes. He moved towards her face and rubbed his nose against her and moved back. After a few minutes, Nandini got up and said," Chalo Manik it's 6 pm." Manik also got up and they both went out to join the others. Soon Raghav sir with miss Naina came there.

Raghav: So students it's time to have some fun. Today we will have fun here itself as it's already late.

Naina: Yes! So students I have an idea. We will make 2 teams and play a treasure hunt.

Everyone agreed and started hooting and cheering.

Raghav: Calm down guys. And the teams will be decided by us.

He announced the teams. Team A had Manik, Dhruv, Mukti, Navya, Aryamann and some other students. Team B had Nandini, Cabir, Aliya, Abhi, Harshad and some other students.

Manik: I won't be playing this stupid game.

Raghav: What's the problem Manik?

Manik: I want Nandini in my team or else I am not playing.

Raghav: Manik stop cribbing like a child. We have decided the teams and you will have to play according to it.

Manik was about to say something in anger but Nandini held his hand and controlled him.

Naina: We will be back with the clues till then stand with your teams.

As soon as they left, Manik jerked off Nandini's hand in anger but Nandini being a stubborn girl held it again and looked at him with a smirk on her face.

Manik: What?

Nandini: I know you are scared because mai dusre team mein hu so obviously my team will win.

Manik: Oh please! You can't beat me.

Nandini: Let's see then. I challenge you.

Manik winked: Challenge accepted baby.

Nandini smiled at him but then went towards her team giving him a smirk. Raghav and Naina came there with 2 chits and gave it to the respective teams. They also announced that the loosing team will maje dinner and the winning team will rest. The game started and MaNan smirked looking at each other. Manik read the clue and within few minutes he reached the second clue. Nandini reached the second clue with her team after a few minutes. Manik was doing everything fast and Nandini wanted to win so she thought of distracting him. She smirked and went in front of him with her team and suddenly she removed her jacket exposing her bare shoulders and back due to the spaghetti top that she was wearing.

She winked looking at Manik and he was not able to take his eyes off her. She was successful in distracting him abd her team was in the lead now. Manik said to himself," So Miss Murthy wants to play games with me. Now I will show you how it's played." He smirked and started helping his team mates. After some time he was all wet due to sweat and removed the t shirt he was wearing. Nandini's eyes popped out looking at him shirtless. She also felt angry when she saw some girls ogling at him. Manik ignored others and was continuously looking at Nandini from a distance and watching all her expressions. They were away from the camp site and there were many trees around. Manik then smirked and emptied his water bottle on himself. Water was falling down from his face to his bare chest and down to his perfectly toned body. Nandini bit her lower lip looking at him and then looked away trying to control herself. She closed her eyes and took deep breathes. Cabir shaked her and said," What's wrong with you. Where are you lost?" Nandini said," Nothing Cabir. Main kuch soch rahi thi." Suddenly Harshad shouted saying that he has got the answer to the clue so everyone followed him. On the other side, Mukti also asked the same to Manik but he excused himself saying that the game was too boring. Their team also started searching for the next clue and Manik was standing there alone looking for Nandini but she was no where to be seen.

Suddenly someone pulled him and took him behind a tree were no one could see them. It was Nandini and looking at her Manik folded his arms across his chest giving innocent looks. Nandini pushed him with her hand and pinned him to the tree and came closer to him.

Nandini: What the hell were you doing there?

Manik innocently: What did I do?

Nandini: Yeh tum mujhse puch rahe ho? Why did you take off your shirt? You distracted me. Do you know how hard it was to control myself there?

Manik swapped there positions and pinned her to the tree. He trailed his finger from hee face to her neck to her shoulder and then came closer to her looking intensely into her eyes.

Manik: To tum kya kar rahi thi. You know na that you are so irresistible.

Nandini: Manik. I

Manik didn't let her speak anything and pinned her hands to the tree. He smacked his lips on her and she also responded with equal fervour. They kissed till they were out of breath while rubbing their bodies with each other. Manik then moved down and sucked and licked her neck and her bare shoulders. He gave love bites on her neck and slowly his hands moved down fondling her curves. She tried pulling him closer and after some time she pinned him to the tree and gave love bites on his neck and then kissed his chest passionately. She looked up after some time and again kissed his lips softly yet passionately cupping his face. Manik responded with equal love holding her waist tightly.

Breaking the kiss, they hugged each other tightly and said 'I LOVE YOU' at the same time. After some time, they broke the hug and started going towards the camp thinking that everyone will get tensed. As soon as they reached their, they found Team B were very happy as they won. As MaNan came towards their friends holding hands Cabir said," I told you al ki ye dono sath me hi honge." Everyone chuckled at them and after some time, Nandini whispered in Manik's ears," Wear your shirt Manik. I hate when someome else looks at you like that." She looked at the girls who were continuously ogling at his hot body. Manik ran to his tent and came back wearing a black t shirt and then joined others in the centre. Manik's team had to cook so they went in some corner where all the arrangements were made for cooking. They decided to divide the work between every member. Navya was cutting veggies with a random girl, Manik and Dhruv had to mame rotis, Aryamann and Mukti with some others had to cook the sabjis and some others had to cook rice. Everyone started their work except Manik who was making weird expressions. Rest of their friends were chuckling looking at him while he gave them a fake smile and he also started helping Dhruv. Nandini was talking with Cabir, Aliya and Abhi but her attention was completely on Manik. On the other side, Manik's face and his clothes were covered with aata and he was also glancing at Nandini again and again.

After some time, Nandini excused herself and walked towards ManRuv. Manik was about to touch the hot pan with his finger but at the same time Nandini reached there and held his hand.

Nandini: Are you out of your mind? Ye hot hoga bohot so you can't touch it with your hands.

Manik just smiled at her concern and then Nandini came at his place and started helping them. She saw that the rotis were made in very weird shapes and started laughing.

Manik: So you are laughing eh? Kitni mushkil se banaya hai maine.

Nandini: Sorry baby. But look at them. Aise shape ki roti aaj tak nahi dekhi maine.

Manik made a sad face and Nandini stopped laughing. She moved towards him and said while wipping off the aata from his face," Manik don't be sad na. Tumne atleast try kiya na. And anyways I am gonna eat it chahe kuch bhi ho. Cause it's filled of love." After that, MaNanRuv together made the rotis for everyone and soon the dinner was ready. Everyone sat in the centre and some students were told to serve the food from team B. Harshad smirked and went towards the corner where food was kept. He mixed some pills in a plate and told a girl to give that plate to Manik only. The plate was given to Manik and everyone else started having food. After dinner, Harshad went to a corner and called Aryamann and Cabir saw this so he put on his bluetooth device and heard that their conversation. Harshad told to Aryamann that he had already spiked Manik's food so he doesn't need to do anything.

Cabir: Shit!

Nandini: Kya hua Cabir?

Cabir pointed towards Manik who was sitting beside Nandini keeping his head on her shoulder and smiling. Nandini was confused but then suddenly she remembered about Harshad's plan.

Nandini: Oh shit! But Manik ne to kuch nahi piya.

Cabir: That jerk had mixed some pills in his food.

Mukti: What the hell! Ab kya kare?

Cabir: We just have to handle him. Kuch nahi hoga guys. Don't worry.

Nandini: Han Cabir is right! Umm. Guys you handle him for a few minutes. I am getting a call from Chachi. Mai abhi aati hu.

She slowly gets up moving Manik's head from her shoulder but Manik held her hand and made a puppy face. He said," Baby where are you going." Nandini smiled at his cuteness and said," I will be back in a minute. Promise." Manik left her hand nodded like a child and Nandini went to a corner to attend Chachi's call. Meanwhile, Manik was trying to escape but no one let him go. After a few minutes, Nandini was still not back so Manik was getting restless. Manik saw that no one was paying attention to him so he sneaked out from there and went in the direction where he saw Nandini had went but she was not there. Manik shouted," Meri Nandu kaha gayi. Nandu. Nandu. Where are you." Suddenly Aryamann came there and told him," Maine Nandini ki waha jate hue dekha." Manik was not in his senses so he thanked him and walked towards a tent and entered inside it to find a girl there. She was Shayna who was waiting for Manik.

Aryamann was not feeling good to do all this but he had to for his best friend. He then went towards the others and sat with them. Everyone behaved nicely with him so that he doesn't realise that something is wrong. Nandini came there and found that Manik was missing.

Nandini: Guys where is Manik?

Cabir: Oh shit! Abhi to yehi tha. Chalo hum dono usey dhundte hai.

Nandini: han jaldi Cabir.

Cabir excused himself and left a cellphone there and Aryamann smirked looking at it. He kept the phone in his pocket when others were busy in talking. He thought no one saw it but everyone had his eyes on him. Aryamann also left from there and moved towards Shayna's tent and started recording the video by peeping into the tent. Inside the tent, Shayna was getting close to Manik but he was going away from him. Shayna caressed his cheeks and her other hand was on his shoulders. Manik held her hands and pushed her away. Manik said," Meri Nandini kaha hai. And who are you?" Shayna said," Oh Manik. Forget her na. I am here for you." Manik moved away from her and said," Please go away. I want my Nandu. Wnere is she." Shayna said," Manik main hu na. You can spend the night with me. Manik didn't pay any attention to her and that girl was about to move closer to him when Manik heard Nandini and Cabir's voice who were shouting his name. He ran outside the tent and saw Nandini and Cabir who were looking in the opposite direction. He went there and hugged Nandini from behind and nuzzled into her neck. Nandini knew this touch and left a sigh of relief when she felt Manik hugging her. Nandini turned around and said," Where were you Manik? Do you know I was so scared." Manik cupped her face and said cutely," I was searching for you baby."

Nandini held her hand and said," Okay. Chalo mere sath." Saying this she dragged him with her and Cabir followed them. On the other side, Aryamann was shocked that even in drunken state Manik was not getting close to another girl. He went towards Harshad who was in their tent.

Aryamann: Dude the plan is off. Manik ne Shayna ko to touch bhi nahi kiya. Nandini aur Cabir aagaye the waha so ab wo log usey akela nahi chodenge.

Harshad angrily: What the hell! Tumne aisa hone kaise diya?

Aryamann: Chill man! It's not my fault that Manik loves Nandini so much that even in such state he won't even think of cheating on her.

Harshad: Sorry yar! I got angry. I have a plan B. Hum Manik and Nandini ka video banaka leak karenge. Give Cabir's phone to me. I will do it.

Aryamann thought," How can Harshad be so cheap? I can't let this happen. I have to stop him at any cost."

Aryamann: No no Harshad. You know na fab5 hate you so much. Kisi ne tumko dekh liya to you will be in problem. I will do it. No worries!

Harshad smiled: Okay.

Aryamann left from there and said to himself," Harshad is always ready with his cheap plans. Plan B hai to plan C bhi hoga. I can't fall so low. I have to do something. I think I should confront Cabir about this." He made a firm decision and walked towards Cabir's tent where he found MaNan, Mukbhi, Dhrulya and Navya together.

Aryamann: Sorry to disturb you guys but I want to confess something.

Cabir: What is it?

Aryamann sat down and gave Cabir's phone back to him.

Aryamann: I am sorry. I was planning to trap you guys with Harshad. He is my best friend so I was helping him. Mai tum sab par bohot time se spy kar raha hu and I really don't think you guys match Harshad's definition." He paused and saw everyone's blank expression. Manik was not paying attention to it and playing with Nandini's hand then kissed it. He then pulled Nandini and wrapped his arms around her shoulder and others looked at them with a smile. Aryamann continued," And specially Manik and Nandini's love for each other made me change my mind. I have seen them caring and loving each other so much. And also the bond you guys share. I swear maine aisi friendship and aisa pyaar kabhi nahi dekha. Please trust me. I really don't wanna harm you all." Everyone looked at him with a blank expression and after some time,

Cabir: And you think we will believe you?

Aryamann: Please Cabir trust me. I don't want to help him anymore. If I was on his side then I would not have come here.

Mukti: This might be Harshad's plan. You never know what your enemies plan against you.

Aliya: I second that. Bhai kuch bhi kar sakte hai to destroy us.

Everyone was having a serious discussion here but Manik was in his own world. He whispered in Nandini's ear which was heard by everyone," I love You Nandini. You are mine. Meri Nandu. Sirf meri." Nandini forgot everything and just blushed and hid her face in his chest and said," I love you more."

Cabir: Oh god! Yahan itna serious discussion chal raha hai and ye dono abhi bhi romance kar rahe hai.

Aliya: Cabir! Manik is not in his senses so it's not his fault.

Mukti: But I am sure if he was in senses na fir bhi Nandini se romance hi kar raha hota kahi kone me.

Nandini looked at others and said: Guys please don't tease us na!

Dhruv: han guys. Stop it.

Navya: Dhruv bilkul sahi keh raha hai. Ye dono kitne pyaare lagte hai aise.

Abhi: Yes. That's true.

Cabir: Okay fine! Manik Nandini continue your romance. Aryamann tum bolo.

Aryamann: What can I say now? I just want to say that I am out of his plan.

Cabir: But we can't trust you.

Aryamann: Fine. Mai Harshad ke samne uske sath hu but I am not helping him anymore.

Cabir: We still can't trust you. Actually hume pata tha that you both are planning against us. And this phone is of no use. Because isme jo bhi hoga I can handle it through my laptop. Tum video banate and mai yaha se delete kar deta.

Aryamann: Woah! Ye sab kab hua? I mean how?

Aliya: We have been spying on Bhai. And Aryamann you also be carefull. Because we have got our eyes on you.

Aryamann: Oh god! Just tell me what can I do to win your trust?

Cabir was about to say something when they heard Manik's voice. Manik said," Nandu I want my kiss. Please jaldi kiss me." He made a cute pout to which everyone chuckled except Nandini. Nandini said," Shh Manik. Everyone is here." Manik said," No no no. I want a kiss right now."

Nandini kept her hand on his mouth and whispered something in his ears to which he widened his eyes and smiled like a child.

Nandini: So Cabir tum kuch bol rahe the?

Cabir: Yeah! I was saying that kal tumhe kuch karna padega jo mai bolunga then only I can believe you.

Aryamann: I will do anything. Just tell me.

Cabir: Wo main kal bataunga. See you tomorrow.

Aryamann left from there and soon everyone started going back to their tents. Abhi stayed their as it was his tent, Dhrulya, MaNan and Mukya left from there. Nandini convinced Aliya to stay with Dhruv and she brought Manik inside her tent. Mukti and Navya went inside their tent.

INSIDE NANDINI AND ALIYA'S TENT.

Nandini brought Manik inside by holding his hand and he followed her like a small child. Manik: Give me a kiss na. Abhi to koi nahi hai.

Nandini chuckled and kissed him on his lips softly and he also responded back with equal passion. They broke the kiss and Manik lied down on the mattress and pulled Nandini beside him. He turned his face and she also did the same and now they were lying on the mattress facing each other.

Manik: Nandu tumhe pata hai jab mai tumhe dhundne gaya tha tab Aryamann told me that you are in some tent so I went there but tum nahi thi waha. He lied to me.

Nandini: Accha. Phir kya hua?

Manik: There was a girl who was coming close to me but maine usey durr kar diya. Because Sirf meri Nandu mere pas aa sakti hai.

Nandini cupped his face and said: I trust you Manik. Mujhe pata tha tum yehi karoge. I love you.

Manik pecked on her lips: I love you more Nandu.

Nandini just smiled looking at him but suddenly he stood up and told Nandini to come with him. She followed him and they went outside near the edge of the mountain.

Manik shouted," I LOVE YOU NANDINI." Nandini panicked and covered his mouth with his hand and said," Shh Manik. Kya kar rahe ho? Koi sun lega." Manik moved away her hand and said," I don't care. Mai kisi se darta hu kya." Nandini said," I know you are not scared. But mujhe darr lagta Manik. Please mere liye don't shout na. Please." Nandini said this with a puppy face and Manik said," Aww. My baby is scared. Don't worry. Mai hu na." Saying this Manik hugged her tightly and Nandini also hugged him with equal force. Meanwhile, Mukti saw that Navya was asleep so she sneaked out and went towards Cabir and Abhi's tent. She called Cabir and told him to come out.

Cabir: Kya hua Mukti? Sab thik toh hai na?

Mukti: han Cabir. Everything is fine. Tu na mere tent me ja Navya ke pas. She is waiting for you.

Cabir: Ahem Ahem. Sidhe bol na you want to spend the night with Abhi.

Mukti smiled: If you know it then why are you asking me. Just go na and don't disturb us.

Cabir winked: Okay. All the best.

Mukti hit him playfully on his shoulder and entered his tent and Cabir went towards Navya's tent. He saw her sleeping peacefully so he also slept beside her hugging her.

At the same time, Abhi was shocked to see Mukti in his tent so he stood up. Mukti went closer to him and started kissing him passionately and they fell down while kissing and started making out. At the same time, Dhruv and Aliya were also in the same tent and were sleeping peacefully. Aliya's head rested on his chest and Dhruv wrapped his arms around her comfortably. Meanwhile, MaNan broke the hug and started walking towards their tent.

Manik: I don't want to go baby. Mujhe yahi rehna hai. Under the stars with you.

Nandini: Manik please let's go inside. Don't you remember what I had promised you.

Manik happily: Yes I know. But thodi der ke liye hum yaha rahenge. Then we will go inside and do it.

Nandini had no other option but to agree due to his cute antics. They sat in the centre holding hands and looking at the stars. Nandini pointed towards a star and said," Look at that star Manik. It's shining so bright. More than any other star. Manik said," No. It's not the brightest star." Nandini looked at him," Toh konsa hai?" Manik cupped her face and said," You are the brightest star. My shining star jo sabse zada shine karti hai. Sirf mere liye." Nandini just smiled and said," And I will keep shining for you always." Manik pulled her into his arms and they again started looking at the stars. After some time, they went inside their tent and sat on the mattress.

Manik: Now Nandu it's time for you to fulfill your promise.

Nandini blushed and moved closer to his face and started kissing him softly and they fell on the mattress kissing each other and started making out. After a few hours they slept in each others arms. Nandini placed her head on his chest and he wrapped her in his arms tighly.

PRECAP: CABIR GIVES A TASK TO ARYAMANN AND SAYS THAT IF HE COMPLETES IT THEN ONLY HE WILL BE TRUSTED.

P.S.: Sorry everyone for the late update. I know I am just giving excuses these days but trust me I am not lying. Admissions are going on and in Mumbai it's raining since 2 days. It's been very hectic for me to travel across the city for admissions. So I didn't get time to post the new chapter. Sorry sorry sorryyy. I hope you all like the chapter and after this chapter there will only be 3 to 4 chapters more.

CHAPTER 37

NEXT MORNING

Manik and Nandini reached the music room sharp at 7 am and wished good morning to each other by a hug followed by a soft kiss. They started practicing and this time Manik was not getting angry and was explaining her everything properly and calmly. After 45 minutes of continuous practicing Manik told her that they will continue tomorrow as she is a beginner. Nandini happily agreed and placed his guitar down. She hugged Manik and he also hugged her back. Meanwhile, Abhi was standing outside Mukti's room and was very confused. He wanted to approach her but he couldn't. He wanted an answer for his confession but he very well knew that she was scared. He had given her time and space but deep down he wanted her to confess whatever she feels. He wanted to go inside but he decided against it and went in the school and started roaming here and there. At the same, MaNan were still hugging each other passionately and then breaking the hug they rested their foreheads on each other, feeling each other's warm breaths. Manik then cupped her face and then slowly moved his hands down to her neck and then her shoulders. He started kissing her near her neck and moved upwards and gave a love bite and she moaned his name. He then kissed the spot which had turned blood red. He slid her shirt towards her shoulder and then kissed her neck passionately giving love bites to her placing his one hand on her shoulder and the other on her waist.

She blushed even more and Manik looked at her passionately. He then touched the spots where he had given love bites and his face expression changed into a sad one. Nandini asked," Kya hua Manik?" Manik sadly said," I have given so many love bites to you and your neck has turned all red. I am sorry. It must be hurting you na?" Nandini smiled and then tip toed to match his height. She pulled him closer by holding his shirt and started giving him love bites all over his neck and near his shoulder. She moved away and said while blushing," Does it hurt you Manik?" Manik said," Not at all. Infact I love it when you bite me. And these marks are the sign of your love." Nandini happily said," Exactly! For me also these marks are a sign of your love. And I always want such marks on my body given by my monster." Manik just smiled at her answer and cupped her face and moved closer to her lips while she placed her hands on his chest. They were about to kiss when Abhi entered the music room and as soon as he saw them he said while closing his eyes," Oh! I am sorry. I didn't see anything." MaNan moved away and looked here and there and Abhi slowly opened his eyes and as he saw them embarrased he moved towards them. Nandini was blushing hard and Manik was looking here and there and tapping his foot. Nandini tried to hide her blush and said," Good morning Abhi." Abhi said," Good Morning baby doll."

Manik who was looking here and there turned his face towards Abhi and as soon as Abhi saw his angry face he said," Manik no offence. She is like my little sister." Manik just smiled and Nandini said," Abhi tum yaha?" Abhi smirked and said," Kyu? Yeh tum dono ka personal spot hai kya?" Nandini said," Abhi please." Abhi just smiled and then suddenly he remembered about Mukti so his face expression turned into a sad one. Nandini noticed this and she signalled Manik with her eyes to look at him. Manik also thought that he was sad. Nandini kept her hand on his shoulder and asked: Abhi are you fine.

Abhi said:Yes! Mujhe kya hoga

Nandini: Abhi don't lie to me. I know you. Something is definetely troubling you.

Abhi sighed: Mukti.

Manik: What Mukti? Is she fine?

Abhi: Relax Manik! She is fine.

Nandini: Then what's the problem?

Abhi: I told her that I love her and she said she needs time. I am giving her time but Mai impatient ho raha hu.

Manik: Okay so you want to know what she feels about you.

Abhi: Yes! I mean I don't want her to rush into anything. Mai bas yeh jan na chahta hu ki wo sachme kuch feel karti hai ya nahi.

Nandini: We will help you Abhi.

Manik: But how?

Nandini smirked: I know what to do. Iske liye we need a girl who would flirt with you in front of Mukti. And if she is jealous then bingo!

Abhi and Manik: Really?

Nandini excitedly: Yes really! I am a girl and I have gone through this. Don't you remember Manik?

Manik: Oh yes! But Abhi I am warning you it can be dangerous. Nandini dikhti choti si hai but hai bohot dangerous. And Mukti to you know right?

Nandini angrily: Accha! I am dangerous eh?

Abhi: Guys please fight later. Mera problem solve kare?

Manik: Okay. Let's go to the canteen.

Nandini: But assembly?

Manik: We have to make a plan. So aaj miss karte hai.

Abhi: Okay bro! Let's go.

MaNan and Abhi left the music room and they go towards the canteen. Manik was thinking something and looking around while AbhiNi were just looking at her. Suddenly, Manik pointed towards a girl and said," Hey you! Come here." That girl wearing a super short skirt was standing with her friends was shocked and at the same time her friends started teasing her and she smirked. She came near Manik and said," Ye..Yes Manik."

Manik: What's your name?

The girl: Riya. Riya kapoor.

Manik: Okay! So riya you have to do a task.

Riya shocked: What task?

Manik: You have to flirt with Abhi whenever Mukti is around and for that you will be free from fab5 forever.

Riya happliy: Oh yes Manik! I can do anything for you.

Saying this she moved towards Manik and placed her one hand on Manik's chest and the other hand caressed his face. Nandini was fuming with anger and Manik was about to push her away when Nandini held her hand which was on his chest and pushed her away from her man. She looked at her with eyes full of anger.

Nandini angrily: Hey you miss whatever tumhe Abhi ke sath flirt karne bola hai. Not with Manik. So keep your hands off him. Do you get that?

Riya: What is your problem girl? Is he your boyfriend?

Nandini: Yes he is! And jo bola hai wo karo. Or else get the hell out of here!

Riya: Whatever! I will do that task. Only for Manik.

She winked at Manik and left giving and angry stare to Nandini. Manik was smirking while Abhi was shocked to see this side of Nandini. Nandini gave both of them a 'what' look.

Manik: Dekha Abhi. I told you she is dangerous.

Abhi: Yes! I have seen the jealous Nandini for the first time. Anyways yeh itni gussa hogayi to pata nahi Mukti mera kya hal karegi.

Manik: Yeah! Best of luck dude! But Nandini is no less. She is the mini version of a monster.

Nandini made a cute pout: Manik! I am not talking with you. Arghhh.. just bye.

She was about to go when Manik pulled her and hugged her tightly and said," I was kidding baby. You are an angel." Nandini just smiled and hit his back playfully while hugging him and Abhi smiled looking at them. They broke the hug and Manik kissed on her forehead and she blushed looking at him. Abhi cleared his throat to bring these love birds out of their dream land. MaNan straightened up and soon the canteen filled up with students. MaNan and Abhi sat with the rest of their friends on their usual table .

Dhruv: Tum dono assembly kyu miss ki?

Manik and Nandini opened their mouths to speak but they were shut by Cabir.

Cabir: Aree Dhruv ye kaisa sawal hai? Obviously kahi pe romance kar rahe honge.

Mukti: Han right Cabir. Manik tujhe rat kam pad jati hai kya jo subah bhi romance shuru kar deta hai.

They expected them to get embarrassed but what they saw was completely opposite to it. Manik wrapped his hand around Nandini's shoulder and pulled her closer. He looked at her lovingly.

Manik: You are right Mukti. We both just can't get enough of each other.

Manik then smirked looking at the others and then they expected Nandini to shy away but that day wasn't lucky for them. Nandini snuggled closer to him keeping her hand on his stomach and her head on his chest.

Nandini: Yes. He is right.

Manik smiled and kissed on her head and everyone else just started eating their food accepting their defeat. MaNan looked at each other and smiled. Manik touched his forehead with her and then they started eating together and feeding each other. After a few minutes, Abhi went to get some water and riya intentionally bumped into him and her bag fell down. Abhi helped her and was about to go when Riya came in front of him and started flirting with him. Mukti looked there and saw a girl whose hand was on Abhi's face caressing it and Abhi was smiling. Mukti was burning with jealousy and looking at them with anger. MaNan were happy that their plan was working. Mukti clutched the spoon in her hand and then left as she saw Abhi and Riya talking and laughing together.

Everyone was shocked except MaNan and at the same time Abhi was scared as Mukti left giving him an angry stare. He moved away from Riya as soon as Mukti left and she also went away from there. Everyone went to the classroom after having breakfast. MaNan, Cavya? Muklya sat together and Dhruv sat with Abhi. Mukti was still angry and she said to herself," Why the hell was Abhi so close to that Girl? Wo flirt kar rahi thi and he was smiling? Arghh. I am gonna kill him." She took out her anger on the pages by scribbling anything on it. Aliya sensed her awkward behaviour but she decided not to ask her. It was lunch time now and everyone was moving towards the canteen when Riya again came there and hugged Abhi and he started smiling. They broke the hug but Riya was caressing his hand.

Abhi: Hi riya! What's up?

Riya: Nothing. I am just bored. Abhi: Same here.

Riya: I have an idea. Let's bunk the classes and we can go and chill somewhere. And we can get to know more about each other.

Abhi: Yeah! That's a great idea. Guys I will see you later. Bye.

Mukti was pissed off so she left from there saying that she was not feeling well. As soon as she left Abhi moved away from Riya and told her that her work is over and thanked her. She left from there and the others except MaNan looked at him confusingly. They went to the canteen and started talking and eating.

Cabir: Yeh sab kya tha? Why is Mukti behaving so weird?

Aliya: Ya Cabir is right. She is behaving weird from morning.

Abhi: Actually it's because of me. (He explained everything.)

Cabir: So Mukti is jealous. That is something new. Dude she loves you.

Aliya: Yes obvio she does. We have never seen her being jealous.

Abhi: So i guess my plan is working. I hope she confesses it soon.

Everyone smiled and finished their lunch soon. They attended the other classes and went back to their rooms.

IN THE EVENING

It was 7 pm in the evening when Mukti went outside her room to roam around. She said to herself," Why was I so jealous seeing Abhi with someone else? Mujhe kabhi aisa feel nahi hua about anyone. I love him. I love him so much that I can't see him with anyone else." She was in deep thoughts when someone pulled her inside a classroom. She was scared at first but left a sigh of relief when she saw Abhi. Abhi pulled her closer by holding her waist and she was lost in his eyes. Suddenly she remembered about Riya and tried to get out of his grip. Abhi was not letting her go even if she was trying hard.

Abhi: Mukti stop it! Aise behave kyu kar rahi ho tum?

Mukti: Mai aise kyu behave kar rahu hu? I should ask that question.

Abhi: What have I done?

Mukti: What were you doing with thay bimbo?

Abhi smirked: Oh! So Mukti is jealous eh?

Mukti: Jealous and me? Never! Just leave me.

Abhi: Mukti stop lying. And say the truth.(Abhi made her look into his eyes)

Mukti: Yes I was jealous.

Abhi: Why?

Mukti: Because.. because I can't see you with anyone else and I.. I..

Abhi: Speak what your heart says.

Mukti: I love you.

She said a plain and simple I love you and kept looking into his eyes and he was also doing the same. Abhi pulled her closer and said," I love you too." She also moved closer by keeping her hands around his neck and started kissing him and he also responded with equal passion. They broke the kiss and hugged each other tightly. Mukti rested her head on his chest and he caressed her hair and then kissed it. After breaking the hug,

Mukti: Btw yeh sab riya ke sath drama kyu kiya?

Abhi: Woh. I wanted to see that you get jealous or not. Manik and Nandini helped me.

Mukti: W*F! Manik tu to gaya aaj. Let's go.

Saying this she dragged him out and to her surprise all her friends were waiting outside. She looked at Manik angrily and he thought that he would be dead till now if looks could kill. Manik hid behind Nandini and made a puppy face. Everyone chuckled looking at his cute antics and then Mukti too joined them forgetting her anger. Manik stood beside Nandini as he saw Mukti was not angry now. Mukti punched him playfully on his shoulder.

Mukti: Manik you and your crazy plans. But it worked like always.

Manik: I knew that it would work. But Nandini was behind this master plan.

Mukti: Oh! So Manik ke sath rehke Nandini bhi aisi hogayi hai.

Manik just smirked and Nandini smiled looking at her and then everyone congratulated the new couple and then went to have dinner. At the time of dinner, all the couples sat together. MaNan were feeding each other in between while Dhrulya were holding hands below the table. Mukti wasn't that romantic so she was just having her food while Abhi also did the same. But they were stealing glances of each other. At the same time, Cabir started rubbing his foot on Navya's leg and she blushed looking at him. After dinner, they went to NavNi's room to spend some time together. Everyone settled on the floor in a round.

Cabir: Guys let's play truth and dare.

Navya excitedly: Han han. Truth and dare ye mera favourite game. Once when I was playing with my cousins I was told to eat 10 plates of pani puri.

Everyone chuckled at her answer. And then Mukti controlled her laughter.

Mukti: Navya. That's not how we play. If it's not dirty it's not fun.

Cabir: Oh yes! Nandu ek empty bottle hogi?

Nandini: Ya Cabir. I will just bring it.

She stood up and went near her side table and brought a empty bottle. She tied up her hair in a messy bun and sat next to Manik. Manik looked at her sadly as she tied her hair but she made a puppy face and signaled him that she was irritated with her hair and wanted to tie it. Manik just blinked his eyes and smiled at her.

Cabir: Tum dono ki isharo wali baate hogayi ho to game start kare?

Manik: yeah! Start kar na.

Cabir spinned the bottle and it pointed towards Dhruv and he chose Truth.

Nandini: I will ask. Umm. If Aliya was not so beautiful like she is then would you love her in the same way?

Dhruv held Aliya's hand: Yes obviously! I love her not because of her beauty but because of her beautiful and pure heart, her childishness and her innocence.

Everyone just looked at them with awe and Aliya kissed on Dhruv's cheek while blushing. Cabir spinned the bottle and it pointed towards Nandini and she chose dare. Cabir and Mukti smirked looking at each other and Manik face palmed himself looking at the evil twins.

Cabir: So Nandu meri junglii billi. Dare eh? Mukti tu bata kya karna chahiye iske sath?

Mukti smirked: So Nandini kiss Manik right here right now.

Nandini shocked: What?

Cabir: Yes!

Mukti: You have to do it.

Nandini looked at Manik who was dreamily looking at her. She sighed and pulled him closer by holding his t shirt and brought his face in front of her so that no one could see their kiss. She tilted her face and placed her lips on his and kissed him softly and Manik also kissed her back. They broke the kiss as they were not alone. Nandini blushed and Manik was staring at her. Everyone was shocked as they didn't expect Nandini to take such a bold step. Moving on in the game, this time the bottle pointed towards Abhi and he chose truth.

Navya: Abhi ye batao tumhe Mukti se pyaar kab hua?

Abhi: I exactly don't know when I fell for her. I just know that the first time I saw her I fell for her beauty but then slowly I got to know her and I fell for her innocence, her pure heart. I fell for her cute antics, her carefree attitude, her cute frowns and her smile. Her beautiful smile is one of the biggest reasons that I fell in love with Mukti.

Mukti smiled looking at him and he gave a shy smile. Everyone looked at them in awe and then Cabir spinned the bottle which pointed towards him. He obviously chose dare and Manik smirked devilishly.

Manik: So Cabir! You have to dance on an item song.

Cabir: What the f**k! Item song?

Manik: Yes. Tu sabko dare deta firta hai na. So now your turn.

Cabir: Yeh nainsafi hai. Humne Nandini ko itna accha dare diya. Aur tu!

Manik: Wo to hai. I am thankful for that. But you have to do it.

Cabir: Fine.

He stood up and Manik played a song on his mobile. It was Chikni Chameli from Agnipath. Cabir was dancing like a total item girl and everyone enjoyed his performance. He sat down beside Navya and everyone praised him a lot. Cabir again spinned the bottle and it pointed towards Manik. Manik also chose dare and Cabir smirked.

Cabir: Manik baba mai tera saccha dost hu isiliye kuch accha dare deta hu. So propose Nandini in front of us.

Manik immediately got up and gave Nandini his hand and she stood up holding his hand. He played some soft music in the background and knelt down in front of her holding her hand and gently caressing it. Nandini was looking straight into his ocean like deep and chocolaty brown eyes full of love only for her princess.

Manik: Nandini you are my angel, my princess and my soulmate. Right from childhood I have always loved you but at that time it was innocent love for my best friend. But when we met again my life filled with happiness and colours of love. You light up my world like the stars light up the sky. I have never ever loved anyone like I love you. You are my princess and I wish to fulfill all your wishes even before you demand. Your wish and it's my command. I used to believe that true love didn't exist untill you came in my life again like an angel. And moreover we have fireflies which symbolise our true love when they shine. ( he pointed towards her shining fireflies.) I love you to the moon and back. I Manik Malhotra want to spend the rest of my life with you. So, Nandini Murthy will you be mine forever? (He kissed her hand)

Nandini had tears in her eyes. Her heart was dancing in joy and she immediately knelt in front of him and cupped his face.

Nandini: I love you too Manik. I love you more and more everyday even if it's possible to love someone that much. And yes I Nandini Murthy would love to spend my entire life with you.

Manik smilied and kissed away the tear that just rolled down on her right cheek.

Manik: And I don't ever want you to shed a single drop of tear.

Nandini blushed and Manik said: I love it when you blush. It makes your skin glow more and more.

Nandini blushed: Only you have that magic to make me blush.

Manik moved his hands towards her hair and swiftly opened the bun and her long silky hair fell on her shoulders. He tucked her hair behind her ear and said," And I love your hair." Nandini blushed listening to it.

Everyone else just looked at the lovely couple with broad smiles on their faces. MaNan sat down realising that they were not alone. Now Manik was holding Nandini close to him wrapping his arms around her and she rested her head on his chest.

The game continued for some time and then everyone decided to go back to their rooms. Manik left hugging Nandini tightly and she also hugged him with equal force. They boys left and now only girls were in the room. They decided to have some girl time and sat on the bed. They all started talking and gossiping. They talked about clothes and make up and other stuff. Then suddenly, Aliya's eyes fell on Nandini's neck. She saw a red mark.

Aliya shouted: Nandini what's that?

Nandini panicked: What?

Aliya took her in front of the mirror and showed her the mark on her neck. Nandini blushed remembering about their morning time and how Manik gave her love bites and how she also did the same. Mukti: Aliya yeh Manik ke kam hai.

Aliya smirked: Yeah! But look at the redness of this love bite? Manik is really crazy.

Navya: Wo to hai. Nandu ke pyaar me.

Mukti then removed her hair from her shoulder and saw many such love bites and again Nandini blushed.

Mukti: Oh f**k! Tumhe hurt nahi hua Nandini?

Nandini: No Mukti. It doesn't hurt. Infact I love it when he does that.

Aliya: You both are really crazy. Anyways Mukti let's go to our room. It's pretty late.

Mukti: yeah! Chalo.

They left saying good night to them and NavNi also lied down on their bed. Navya dozed off soon but Nandini was waiting for Manik's text and suddenly her phone beeped with his message. She immediately opened it with a smile on her face.

Manik: Hey princess. I know you must be waiting for me. But please go to bed right now cause it's pretty late and I don't want my baby to get dark circles.

Nandini: Aww baby. And yes I was waiting for you because I want to tell you something.

Manik: Say na.

Nandini: Aaj jo tumne mujhse kaha you made me feel so special. I really felt as if I was a princess.

Manik: You are special and of course my princess. And whatever I said was true.

Nandini blushed: And you are my prince charming.

Manik blushed: So let's sleep sweetheart. Good night. I love you.

Nandini: I love you more. Good night baby.

They both blushed and then dozed off soon so that the night passes away soon bring a bright sunny day.

CHAPTER 2

Nandini is walking towards Navya with a smile on her face. She comes and sits in front of Navya still smiling. Navya looks at her all confused. Nandini says to herself,"Itna bhi bura nahi hai wo" She was brought out of the trance when Navya shook her shoulders.

Navya: Nandu, Tum theek to ho na? Tum itna smile kyu kar rahi ho?

Nandini: Navya. Tum galat thi. Wo Manik itna bhi bura nahi hai. Usne meri bag mujhe wapis de di jab Mukti mujhe tang karne ki koshish kar rahi thi.

Navya: KYA? Manik ne tumhari help ki? Kya mai koi sapna dekh rahi hu?

Nandini said while laughing: Navvyaaa. Tum kitna drama karti ho. Wo bura nai hai. Pata nahi kyu sab aisa bolte hai.

Navya: Nandini. Hume pata nahi abhi kya hua. Par tum sambhalke rehna.

Nandini: Okay Navya.

Meanwhile, Cabir, Mukti and Aliya were staring at Manik with a questioning look as he was lost in his thoughts. Manik noticed that everyone was staring at him so he looked at them.

Manik: What? Aise kya dekh rahe ho?

Mukti: tune uski help kyu ki?

Aliya: Ya Manik. What is wrong with you?

Manik didn't say anything. Cabir noticed the change in behavior since morning. He had also noticed how Manik was looking at her. So he spoke up to defend his bff.

Cabir: Guys. Chill na. Manik ka mood nahi hoga. I am sure aane se pehle Nyonika ne hi kuch kiya hoga. Hai na Manik?

Manik: Ya guys. U know how Nyonika is.( He said thank you to cabir with his eyes. And cabir just smiled at him)

After some time they reached Dehradun. They were instructed by the teachers to get down with discipline and some buses are waiting for them to take them to school. Everyone entered their respective buses. Manik was sitting alone and had told everyone not to disturb him. The teacher in their bus started counting students and she found that Nandini was missing. At the same time Nandini entered the bus and apologized to the teacher and said that she had gone to the washroom. Nandini couldn't find any place and Navya was also sitting with someone else. She turned around to the teacher and said that she doesn't have any place to sit. The teacher looked around and said that the seat besides Manik is empty and she should go and sit there. She started walking slowly towards Manik and then sat beside him. Aliya got jealous and unknowingly held Dhruv's hand tightly. Dhruv said," ouch!" Aliya realized what she was doing and moved her hand away and apologized to which Dhruv smiled. The bus started and it was a 1 hour drive to the school. Nandini and Manik both weren't speaking anything and were looking at each other again and again.

Nandini: Umm. Can I sit on the window side?

Manik: No.

Nandini with a puppy face: Please. Let me sit there.

Looking at Nandini's cute face Manik agreed. She got up from her seat and moved out so that Manik could move out. But Manik smirked and sat on Nandini's seat. Nandini tried to move inside and was facing Manik but at the same time the bus stopped with a jerk and Nandini lost her balance. She landed up on his lap and her head was on his muscular chest. She looked up and kept staring at Manik's face.

Manik: Uthne ka irada hai ya nai?

Nandini blushed but then she realized in what position they were and suddenly got up and sat on the window seat. No one except Cabir noticed this scene. Nandini was looking outside the window and started humming. Manik noticed this and smiled a bit. After some time he realized what was he doing and said to himself," What is wrong with me? What is happening with me? I don't even know who is she? What his her name?Never have I ever been attracted towards any girl. I don't know why but I feel there is some connection between us. She reminds me of someone. I don't know who?" He was brought out of his train of thoughts when all the students started getting out of the bus. Then he realized that they have reached. He was about to get up but stopped when he saw that Nandini was asleep. He patted her shoulder trying to wake her up. But she didn't wake up. She saw Navya and called her. She was very scared. But Manik informed her that her friend wasn't waking up and left from there. She was surprised by this change on behavior in Manik. She woke up Nandini and took her inside the school.

All the girls were standing in a line and boys in front of the girls. A lady teacher walked in and introduced herself.

Miss Naina: Welcome back students. You all might be very tired so please have your dinner and go to bed as soon as possible. Because your classes will start from tomorrow itself at 9 am. And everyone has to attend the assembly at 8 am and then breakfast at 8:30 am. I can see there are some new students in this batch. Those who are old students can go to have dinner and the new students wait here so that I can assign you all your respective rooms.

Everyone left and 3 girls and 2 boys were left with Miss Naina. She allotted their rooms and then they left to have dinner. Nandini went to the cafeteria and sat with Navya. Nandini was Navya's roommate as her old roommate left the school. They all went to their respective rooms. Navya was very happy so was Nandini. Nandini went to sleep thinking about Manik. Manik shared his room with Cabir, Aliya and Mukti shared a room and Dhruv shared his room with a guy whose name was Rohan. Rohan was a good friend of Dhruv. As soon as Manik entered the room he went to sleep to avoid Cabir's questions. But Cabir was Cabir. He didn't let him sleep.

Cabir: What's wrong with you?

Manik: What's wrong with me?

Cabir: Don't act dumb with me. I noticed everything between you and that newbie.

Manik: I don't know what happened. But she..She reminds me of someone.

Cabir: kon?

Manik: Cabir chhod na yar. Mujhe neend aa rahi hai. Sote hai. We will talk tomorrow.

Manik didn't say anything and went to sleep with tears in his eyes. Next morning Manik didn't wake up on time and he said to Cabir that he would join him at 9. So Cabir left. Nandini as usual was on time. Everyone attended the assembly except Manik and he was not there for the breakfast. Cabir was lost in his thoughts.

Mukti: Cabir, Tu theek to hai na? And Manik bhi dikhayi nai de raha hai. Kuch hua hai kya?

Aliya: Ya Cabir. You are behaving weird today.

Cabir: kuch nahi guys. Kal rat ko we didn't sleep so Manik nahi aaya. Nothing to worry.

After the bell rang, all the students rushed to the classroom. But Cabir was worried about Manik so he decided to check on him as he didn't show up at 9. So he walked towards his room.

Meanwhile, the class had started. The teacher introduced himself. As there were many students, the teacher decided to introduce these students with the old ones. Everyone introduced themselves and the class ended. Manik and Cabir were not there. So Aliya, Mukti and Dhruv were worried so they decided to meet them. At the same time Manik and Cabir entered the classroom. They were very happy to see them. So Cabir and Manik plastered a fake smile and sat on their usual seats. Nandini looked at Manik but he started avoiding her. She was sad. After 3 boring lectures it was break time. Navya went to the washroom and Nandini was alone as she had no other friends.

Mukti: Guys let's go. Wo dekho waha. Madhubala ki dost akeli hai.

Aliya smirked: Ya let's go. What say guys?

Dhruv: I don't think that is a good idea. I am not coming.

Cabir: Oh yess. Let's go.

Manik thought that if he doesn't agree then Aliya and Mukti will ask many questions. So he also joined them. They went near Nandini. She got scared and moved back. Mukti and Aliya started teasing her. Nandini started to move back. Cabir went near Nandini.

Cabir: Aree daro mat. Hum to tumhare friends ban na chahte hai. Hai na guys?

Nandini thought that Navya was right about fab5 and said: Mujhse durr raho. Samjhe? Tum sab apne aap ko kya samjhte ho?

Manik: Tum khudko kya samjhti ho?

Aliya: Do you even know who you are talking to?

Nandini: Han pata hai. Fab5. Manik, Cabir , Mukti , Aliya and Dhruv. Sab janti hu. Tumlog kaise ho, sabko bully karte rehte ho. But mai sabke jaise darti nahi hu. Just stay away from me. Or else.

Manik smirked and said: Or else what? Mummy ko complaint karogi?

Nandini: Or else I WILL PUNCH YOU!

Saying this, she left from there in anger. Everyone was shocked.

Mukti: What the hell? Wo khudko samjhti kya hai? Usko dikhana padega ki hum kon hai!

Aliya: You are right. This Nandini Murthy is getting on my nerves now.

Cabir and Manik: What?

Aliya was confused and said: What what?

Cabir: What is her name?

Aliya: Nandini Murthy.

Mukti: Tum dono ko kya hogaya hai? Why are you guys so shocked?

Cabir: Aree yar Mukti kitne questions puchti hai tu? Chhodna. Wo Nandini ko hum badme dekh lenge. Manik tu chal mere sath. Kuch kam hai mujhe.

Manik: Ya okay. Let's go.

They both left from there. As soon as they go out of the class room they were lost in their thoughts. Cabir was the first one to speak.

Cabir: Manik.

Manik: cabir.

Cabir: Manik, Nam same hai to kya hua? Wo koi aur hai. Tune dekha nahi she was behaving as if.. Chhodd. Zada soch mat. You know she is no more.

Manik: Hmm...

It was lunch time now, Fab5 were in the canteen. Nandini entered the canteen laughing with Navya. She walked with Navya to sit on a table but they found an empty table near the table of fab5. So they walked towards their table. Nandini saw Manik and then looked away. Nandini to herself" Nandini don't look at him. He is the bad guy. He is a member of FAB5. But he was so nice to me yesterday. Arghhh.. This guy is driving me crazy. Nandini don't look at him. Control yourself." But she couldn't control herself and she again looked at him. To her surprise Manik was also looking at her. She walked away looking at him and unknowingly a smile appeared on her face.
