Raavi made her way to her room and sat on the bed, disappointed with her life. Tired and devastated, she wiped the tears that rolled down her eyes. How much she had loved Rohan! She thought that he was someone who fell in love with her not because of her outer glamour or because of her money, but someone who loved her form within. But she was so wrong! She wouldn’t have believe her eyes if she had not seen him making out with her own best friend today. She slapped him across his face and kicked his balls so that he remember her whenever he plan to cheat some other girl. Raavi could see pity in every student's eyes who walked past her. She looked down at the ground trying to fight her tears when her eyes fell him.
He was standing at a distance and… smirking! Bloody Chattaan Pandya! Even if they were neighbours, went to the same school and now the same college, Shiva and Raavi never clicked. They could never stop troubling each other. But this was too much! How can he laugh on her misery like that? She had had break up God dammit!
She glared at him and marched towards her house.

Its 3:30AM and I cant sleep. Just cant stop myself from thinking about her. Thoughts are revolving perpetually in my head of which I have no control. So I thought I should make some confessions.
It has been years, I am crushing on this girl. We are in the same college, I see her everyday. It is my daily routine to wait for her near the gate and when she would step out of her black Mercedes. I always want to be the first person to see her when she reach college. But today, when I saw tears in her eyes, it broke my heart into pieces. She was going through so much and I could do nothing for her. I wanted to say her that tears doesn’t suit her beautiful face. She is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my life. Not only from outside, but also a pure soul from inside. She is everything that I want.
Raavi read the latest post on the confession page of her college and skipped a heartbeat. She knew it was written for her. Because she was the only girl who drove a Mercedes to college and she had been crying whole day. She felt better, knowing that someone admired her so much. She wanted to meet him.
Upon reaching her college, she looked around as soon as she moved out of her car. There were hundreds of gazes at her. How would she determine which was his? Was it for real? So many people looked at her that way everyday and she didn’t even notice? But then she realised that girls were also staring at her. Some smiled at her, some waved a hello, while few others rolled their eyes at her in jealousy. Of course, everyone has read the confession.
The whole day, she looked around for the guy. She thought that he would at least make some move after confessing but to her dismay, nothing special happened at the college. With a fallen face, she walked towards the parking. But before she could open the door of her car, she was taken aback when Rohan suddenly fell under her feet.
“I am sorry Raavi, please forgive me,” he cried.
Raavi gaped at his face. He had a blue eye, his nose was bleeding and his shirt was torn from places.
“Who did this to you?” Raavi asked.
“I don’t know, he covered my face with a cloth and beat me blue and black. He asked me to ask forgiveness from you for making you cry. He said that I would face his wrath till you don’t forgive me.”
Raavi chuckled mentally. It felt immense pleasure seeing Rohan in that state. It didn’t take her another second to realize that his secret admirer had done this to him.
“I will never forgive you!” Raavi said and sat in the car.

I never thought that someone would admire me so much, I would matter to someone so much. He didn’t only made be feel special today, but also made a special place for himself in my heart. I hope to meet him soon.
Raavi smiled as she read her confession published. She knew he would read it and reply.
I’ll make her everyday special.
Just one line, and she knew it was for her. With a bright smile on her face, she drove to college.
As soon as Raavi sat there on her seat in the class, she saw a box of chocolates. As far as she remembered, there were only few of people who knew about her love for chocolates and it didn't really look like one of them keeping this there. She even searched inside the box but to her utter disappointment she found nothing in there. She tried remembering the date and but it wasn’t a special day. She kept the box inside her bag and decided to concentrate in the lecture.
In the canteen Raavi sat munching on her sandwich when she saw Shiva sitting with his friends and laughing on something. She turned towards his gaze and saw the canteen guy talking to Rohan.
“I am warned not to take your order, if I did I would get the same treatment you got yesterday.”
Raavi looked at him surprised. Her secret admirer was actually making Rohan’s life hell.
But why was Shiva so happy to see him suffer?
Why does it matter, Raavi huffed.
Next day, Raavi parked her car and marched directly to the cafeteria. She found Shiva sitting with his friends. She stood in front of them. All of them looked at her confused. She didn't speak, just held Shiva's wrist and pulled him with her. He was so much shocked that was unable to say anything. She went upstairs and pushed him inside an empty classroom.
"What the hell, Raavi?" Shiva yelled after she locked the door.
"Exactly!" She yelled back. "What the hell, Shiva? What are you up to? Why are you doing all this?"
"What have I done?"
“You are my secret admirer.”
Shiva looked down to his feet as if suddenly finding something interesting with his shoes.
"That means I am right,” she said crossing her arms near her chest. “You have been fooling me. You were making fun of me! If this is some kind of joke then it’s a bad joke Shiva!”
"It's nothing like that!" Shiva said without thinking for a moment.
"Then?" Raavi asked moving closer to him. “You really like me?”
"No!" He whispered.
"Are you sure?" She asked caressing her fingers on his cheek.
"Stop it Raavi," Shiva said clenching his fist; controlling himself.
"I don't affect you?" She asked coming closer to his face.
She brought her lips closer to his but didn't kiss him. She wanted him to accept his feelings for her. Her hot breath filled his face. He closed his eyes to feel her. She moved her finger across his face, seducing him.
It was now out of tolerance. Shiva couldn't control himself. He tugged her wrist and pinned her tiny figure against the wall. Raavi was taken aback by his sudden move. His finger trailed from her bare hand across her neck. His nose nuzzles at the crook of her neck. He pulled her thigh up to his hips and his hand moved thoroughly there. His nose moved from her neck to earlobes, nuzzling. Her fingers raked through his hair, pulling him closer. She threw her head back in a bliss enjoying his sweet torture.
Just then the bell rang and reality hit Shiva. He pushed her and pulled back. Raavi looked at him.
“Why are fighting your feelings for me?” she asked.
“How did you know?”
Raavi unlocked her phone and showed him the confession.
It feels nice seeing her smiling. I still remember when I saw her smiling for the first time. She saved a dog from coming under a car and she was so happy for saving a life. She was so proud of herself but her beautiful smile defined innocence. I would do anything to see her smiling always.
“You are the only person in this college who knows that I saved that dog in childhood. You are one of the few people who know my love for chocolates. I offered some money to the canteen boy and he revealed that you scared him that you’ll beat him if he takes Rohan’s order. You were happy seeing him helpless. These evidences are enough for me,” Raavi said. “You liked me, that’s why you were smiling when I broke up with Rohan. I got it so wrong! Why didn’t you say anything ever?”
“Because you hate me,” Shiva sighed. “As much a I tried, you always found a reason to dislike me. During school, when I came towards you to offer a cold drink in Rishi’s birthday party, I tripped and it fell on your dress. You thought I did it deliberately and fought with me. In the fresher’s party, when everyone laughed at weird hairstyle, you accused me of playing some prank when the truth was that your best friend did that. I wanted to argue but you didn’t even give me a chance to speak. She was always jealous of you, she even stole your boyfriend. We fought as kids Raavi, but as we grew up you started making a place in my heart. You were the first girl I interacted with, you were special to me. You still are.”
“I am sorry Shiva,” Raavi said realising that it was the situation which had been wrong and not him. “I am so sorry for not realising your feelings. I don't hate you, I thought you hate me, but you did so much for me!”
“You don’t need to say all this. Just tell me if you are ready to be my girlfriend.”
“It takes guts to become Raavi's boyfriend,” she said in a teasing tone.
“Do you think I didn’t do my share of research? I am fully prepared for all you tantrums.”
“I don’t throw tantrums.”
“yeah right,” Shiva rolled his eyes.
Raavi glared at him and they both burst out laughing after few seconds.
“You need to take me to a perfect date to qualify as by boyfriend.”
“Get ready at 6 . I’ll pick you.”
They smiled at each other, thinking about their new life, together.
