Here's an OS.
The Wait.
"You mean the world to me, your smile makes my day brighten. I know we are real opposites in character, but we are perfect for each other. Will you give me a nod to know you better? To know the girl you, so religiously hide from the world?" said Arjun extending his hand out, sitting on a knee. His form heroic.
--
The whole plan was set up. The moment she would walk into, the lights would be turned off and with a spotlight on Arjun's whole self, he would walk to her and ask her out. When he would bend a soft music would play in the background , just to be a plus one for the romantic atmosphere. The campus , was set up with scented candles.
It was going to be perfect.

"OMG! Yes, yes! I would, I love you so much Arjun" said Juhi all excitedly with a soft blush adorning her face as she quickly thrust her palm into his.
Purvi watched this from the gate where her father told her to wait. She was shattered to say the least. Arjun was asking Juhi out while he gave her all the signs of the same. She closed her eyes as all those things he did for her, to her, came into her mind.
--
Purvi was walking down the stair, when her shoe slipped and Clank.
She was lying on top of a cute guy , with spiked hair, who at the moment was telling her something which was making her laugh.
"Maar Daalunga , Gaard Daalunga , Ukhaard daalunga." Said Sachin who was under a laughing Purvi.
He was about to tell her to get up as people were already laughing at her. Poor girl, like the rest of the girls who he had an incident of this sort , people were laughing at her too, he knew she was new, and had no idea of, when he heard a soft, husky, voice call out to him "Sachu?" .
"Arjun Bhai, Look at this girl, she's trying to-" and as usual before he could complete his sentence, Arjun started introducing himself to the laughing beauty.
"Hi, I am Arjun. Arjun Kirloskar." Said Arjun with an charming smile.
"Purvi, Purvi Deshmukh." Said Purvi flicking her fringe with her index finger. That was how she always gave her introduction to everyone she met.
--
Arjun and Purvi were very different from each other. If one loved helping people, the other loved giving them attitude; If one was charming , the other was flirty. And so on. But what the two had in common was Sachin, now a friend to Purvi and always a best friend to Arjun.
There had been many encounters between the two like Purvi falling into his arms ; Arjun running into Purvi and then sweetly smiling at her; Arjun walking very close to her, hitting her elbow in a swift motion, etc.
Purvi was slowly feeling herself open up to Arjun and was also becoming friends with him. She liked his approach towards life. Easy and simple. Straight and focused.
The two were friends and would often go to coffee shops, shopping malls , and many other places. He would often hold her hand and lead her. He would caress the centre of her palm and she would let him. The latter , surprised Arjun , herself , for she never let a guy come this close to her.
--
As the days passed by, with the finals nearing, they worked hard for the exams , and that prevented them from meeting each other. They were in the third year and after college everybody eventually moved on. This worried her as she was sure of her feelings and to an extent of his too. But he hadn't confessed to her yet. She would tell him her feelings today, she decided. At least it would help her loosen up the nervousness that she faced daily. It was the farewell and she knew everyone from the college would be present. This was it. She smiled as she got dressed up for the occasion.
--
She opened her eyes .What had her day turned out to become. She smiled spitefully, as she felt her heart break into tiny pieces as she saw Juhi, their classmate, give her hand out to KD. She didn't look at his reaction. She didn't have it in her to see her love , loving someone other than her.
She turned on her heels and quickly left the place.
--
After Five years.
Purvi walked back into the hall, with her supposed fianc Ranveer. Supposed, because it was a pretense till Ranveer got his girl.
Purvi and Ranveer met at a party which was thrown for all the fresher journalists at their office. In London without any family support the two found solace in each other, they had become friends in no time and were best of friends with each other within a year. Ranveer was in love with his childhood sweetheart of a friend, Ovi, who was clearly too innocent to understand her love for him, and thus to get her to blurt it out all off this drama.
It was two weeks since the pretense and just about four days prior to that she got an invitation to Sachin's wedding. She wanted to see him get married after all he was her first friend, she had ever had. She and Ranveer hatched a plan to get Ovi, who would always get worked up with their closeness, to accompany them .
And here she was. She wanted to do this, even if that meant she would have to see, her first and only love.
--
It had been two hours since she had entered. He stared at her , absorbing her very sight from a far. She was looking magnificent in the black net saree with dull golden borders. Her face had no traces of makeup, other than the glossy Kohl adorning her eyes and a shade pink lipstick on her tempting lips.
He saw a man next to her. Oh! Her fianc. No way in hell was he going to let her marry anyone other than him.
--
Purvi had congratulated the Sachin and his wife Avni, and she went to have dinner. As she was having her dinner she heard Ranveer whisper into her ears. What she heard made her grin like crazy and she pulled him into a bear hug.
He had said "Moti confessed, We are going out for a while. Tujhe pick karne ke time tak, we'll be back."
She ate her dinner, threw the plate and was heading to her original place only to be pulled into a room near by.
She struggled to say something but he had a firm hold on her waist and mouth. She knew it was him, but she was angered at the fact that he was playing with her again. She continued to struggle but he was stronger and before she could say a word he hugged her tightly. They were literally stuck to each other, even air wasn't able to pass through from between them.
She was stumped, as she felt his mouth make its way to her forehead. He pressed a soft kiss on her forehead and then untangled them both.
"How could you?!" he said accusingly into her ear.
She looked at him incredulously . She pushed him away and asked him instead
"How dare you accuse me? You were the one to blame."
He held her tightly, and pulled her close to himself and said
"Five years, Purvi. Five effing years.I waited and waited and what did you do? No Phone call, no email not even a single message. And one fine day you turn up with that fianc of yours. Huh! "
She tried to push him away again when he pulled her into a kiss. Harsh, rough, yet full of love, aggression and pain. He continued.
"I Love you! Only You." He saw her glaring at him, yet he carried on what he planned to tell her.
"That day, I did all of it, said all of that to you, for you. You were and are the one I love. At first I thought it was infatuation but slowly I had realized it was always love. I know your confused. Juhi. That was a mistake. No , not the kind your thinking it to be. (He saw her raise her eyebrows at that) I had it all planned to confess it to you , but god played a stupid game with me. You and Juhi, both wore a pink dress that day, the same shade and the same length. In the dark I thought it was you I was proposing as that was the spot I had seen you last stand on. After I heard Juhi say yes, I looked for you, but you weren't there.I told Juhi that it was you I loved. She smiled and told me she thought so, but then hearing me propose made her feel happy as I was her crush back then. I looked for you everywhere that I could. I learnt from Sachin, months later that you had left Mumbai and gone with your dad. I was shattered, you left no contact with anyone but finally Sachin managed to get your number and here you are." He finished with a sigh.
She looked at him and told him, how she felt shattered and the events that happened from that day. She smiled at him shyly as he asked her "Will you give us a chance?"
She pulled him and kissed him hard. Letting him know her answer. She said "I Love you." And they were kissing again.
--
Two months later.
They were happily married.
Purvi shifted to India forever and they stayed happily ever after.
