Swara walks inside the college campus when someone yanks her arm and drags her to the backyard... She is about to shout when the person keeps his hand on her mouth...

Swara: (hitting the person's hand) Sanskaar...!! What are you trying to do now...??
Sanskaar: What are you wearing...??
Swara: (looks at herself) Umm... What I usually wear...!! Jeans and t-shirt... I think...!!
Sanskaar: Why did you change...??
Swara: What...??
Sanskaar: Why are you not wearing what you were wearing in the morning...??
Swara: You mean Saree...?? (Sanskaar nods his head) For your information Mr. Maheshwari we don't wear a saree at the college...!!
Sanskaar: Why...?? Is there a rule...?? I don't think it's written in some rule book...!!
Swara: Oh God...!! No one can argue with you...!!
Sanskaar: (smiles widely) Exactly...!! So... when are you wearing it again...??
Swara: Not in the college at least...!! Now... will you please let me go...!! I don't want to get late on the first class of the day...!!
Sanskaar: Are you sure...?? (he leans closer) I can accompany you if you want to skip...!!
Swara: (pushes him away) Stop being creepy Sanskaar...!! And I said no flirting with me...!! Now come on...!! We must go... the class is about to start...!!

She leaves...

Sanskaar: (takes a deep breath) I can't wait for the day when you will actually understand that with you this flirting thing has an entirely different meaning...!!

He runs and follows her towards the class...

——————————-.

Mr. Sharma enters the class...

Mr. Sharma: So students... I guess you all must have finalized your partners by now...!! I shall have the names in my hand by the end of the class or else I'll myself assign you the partners after that...!!

Everyone nods...

Mr. Sharma: To start with I have some papers with me...!! (he shows some papers) Here you have the list of all the devices and equipment you will need for your project...!! You have ten days and I want you to find the details of all the equipment written here...!! Look out in books, search the internet... do whatever you like but I need it after ten days...!! Are we clear...??

Everyone agrees in unison and the class proceeds...

After the class gets over...

Swara: So, Sanskaar how are we going to work this thing out...??
Sanskaar: What do you mean...??
Swara: I mean we have to work on the project together...!! How are we going to do it...?? We have classes during the day...!! I think we can just divide the topics...
Sanskaar: (cutting her in between) Or we can just stay here after the college and work the things out together...!!
Swara: But where will we stay after the college...??
Sanskaar: You call me an idiot but I think it's the other way around...!! We have a library genius and it remains open till 8 at night... So I guess we can work the things over...!! We can get started tomorrow...!!
Swara: But tomorrow is Friday and I have my shift back at the Coffee House...!!
Sanskaar: We have classes only in the morning tomorrow...!! So you can do your shift during the afternoon and come back by the evening...!!
Swara: Hmm... Actually, that's a good idea...!! And...
Sanskaar: And you just can't believe that how lucky you are to find someone as intelligent, extra smart, extremely talented and hot as me...!! Right...??
Swara: Don't think so high of yourself Mr. Maheshwari... I was saying that I need to talk to my employer to arrange my shift a bit earlier...!!
Sanskaar: Oh shit...!! And here I was happy thinking that for the first time like in eternity you are going to praise me...!!
Swara: (smiles) Stop being a drama queen...!! Alright... I need to go to the library... I want some books...!!
Sanskaar: Okay... See you during the lunch...!!

Swara nods her head and walks away but just after two steps she stops and turns around...

Swara: Sanskaar...!!
Sanskaar: Hmm...!!
Swara: (smiles) I might call you an idiot but...
Sanskaar: But...??
Swara: But I never denied whatever you just said about yourself...!!
Sanskaar: Huhh...??
Swara: See you later...!!

She winks at him and leaves for the library whereas Sanskaar keeps gawking at the Swara's new phase he just witnessed...

Sanskaar: (to himself) Wait...!! Did she just wink at me...?? God...!! My company is really affecting her...!! She is going insane...!!

——————————–.

During the lunch hour Sanskaar, Laksh and Ragini are sitting at their regular lunch table and waiting for Swara...

Laksh: Bhai... I heard that you met Swara at the temple in the morning...!!
Sanskaar: (busy playing temple run on his mobile as usual) Hmm...!!
Laksh: Are you even listening...??
Sanskaar: Yes Lucky...!! Oh Shit... She died...!!
Laksh: What...?? Where...?? Who died...??
Ragini: (hitting Laksh's head) He is talking about the player in the game...!! Idiot...!!
Laksh: (caressing the back of his head) But what was the need of hitting me...?? Well, Bhai... I heard that Swara's mom and Maa are friends...!!
Sanskaar: (smiles) More like best friends...!! I haven't asked them but I guess they have known each other for a pretty long time...!! Even before their marriages...!!
Ragini: What...?? Seriously...!! Sanskaar, do you even realize what this means...??
Sanskaar: (confused) What...??
Ragini: Oh God...!! Why are these two so dumb...?? This means you'll get even more time with Swara...!! Not just because you are her friend but also because your mothers are friends...!! You have already gone to her house but now she get to your house even more easily...!!
Sanskaar: Then that means...
Laksh: That means... Your chances of getting closer to her have gone high...!! Congo bro...!!
Sanskaar: (smiles widely) Thanks guys...!! I didn't even realize it...!!

Just then Swara comes there...

Swara: What haven't you realized Sanskaar...??
Sanskaar: That how much scared you are of some people...!!
Swara: (glaring at him) I'm not scared of anyone...!!

Sanskaar looks at somewhere and smirks... He stands and puts a hand on Swara's shoulder pulling her closer to him...

Swara: (trying to free herself) What are you doing...?? Everyone is looking...!!
Sanskaar: Shhh...!!

He pulls her closer drawing his lips towards her ears...

Sanskaar: (whispering in her ears) If you are not scared then accept my challenge...!!
Swara: (pulling back) What challenge...??
Sanskaar: (picks up the lemon from his tray) Here take this...!!
Swara: What am I going to do with this...??
Sanskaar: It's time for the payback sweetheart...!!
Swara: What payback...??
Sanskaar: Just like Sahil spiked your drink back at the party... I want you to mix this lemon in his coffee...!! Just as simple as that...!!
Swara: (mimicking him) Just as simple as that...!! Are you crazy...?? What if he finds it out...??
Sanskaar: Then you have me...!! Trust me... I won't let him lay a single finger on you...!!
Swara: But...
Sanskaar: Then agree that you are scared...!!
Swara: I'm not scared...!! It's just that I don't want to get involved with him in any manner...!!
Sanskaar: Then... do it secretly...!!
Swara: But how...??
Sanskaar: That's your problem... not mine...!! Now get going... before the lunch gets over...!!
Swara: Okay... okay...!! I'm going...!!

She takes a deep breath and looks at Sahil who is sitting alone in one corner of the cafeteria waiting for his friends... She holds the lemon tightly in her hand and starts moving towards his table... Sanskaar keeps looking at her from his table...

Swara: (reaching near the table) You did it on purpose...!! Didn't you...??
Sahil: Excuse me...!!
Swara: You spiked my drink at the party...!!
Sahil: (stands up and takes a step closer to her) Really...!! I did...??
Swara: (arching her body backwards trying to maintain distance from him) Don't... don't try to act innocent...!! I know you did it... So, just admit it...!!
Sahil: Alright...!! I did it...!!

He holds Swara by her waist and pulls her closer to him...He keeps his palm on her cheeks whereas Swara tries to pull herself back... Sanskaar rolls his fist in anger and is about to get up when Laksh grabs his arm...

Laksh: No Bhai...!!
Sanskaar: But Lucky...
Laksh: She is almost there...!!

Just then Sanskaar looks down at Sahil's table and finds Swara squeezing the lemon in his coffee...

Sanskaar: (getting up) That's it...!! Lucky can you do something for me...??
Laksh: Yes boss...!!
Sanskaar: Just get a video when Sahil drinks that coffee... I need to take Swara out of here...!!
Laksh: On it bro...!!

Sanskaar gives a slight nod and walks towards Swara... He holds Sahil's hand resting on Swara's waist and pulls it away...

Sanskaar: (holding Swara's arm) I think we should leave...!!
Sahil: Why...?? Getting possessive...!!
Sanskaar: Do you have some problem with that...?? I don't want her to be with some prankster like you...!!
Sahil: Well... In that case, she shouldn't be staying with you either...!! Technically everyone knows how much you like to play pranks on her...!!

"At least he is not a creep like you...!!" This time Swara decides to speak in between...

Swara: (holds Sanskaar's hand) Let's go...!!

They both come outside towards the parking lot...

Swara: I don't believe this...!!
Sanskaar: Yeah... You actually did it...!! Bravo... lioness...!!
Swara: (smiles) Well... I think that's the most descent nickname you have given me till now...!!
Sanskaar: Well what can I do...!! I'm pretty talented you know...!!

Just then he notices Swara rubbing her cheeks continuously and dusting the imaginary dirt on her dress...

Sanskaar: What happened...?? What are you doing...??
Swara: I don't like the feeling I have whenever he touches me...!! I feel like...

Before she could complete Sanskaar holds her by her waist pulling her closer...

Sanskaar: Does this make you feel any better...??
Swara: (stuttering because of their close proximity) San...skaar...!!
Sanskaar: Hmm...!!

He holds her cheeks and Swara leans in towards his touch... Sanskaar smiles and kisses her forehead...

Sanskaar: You know right...!! That I'll be always with you whenever you need me...!! That's what friends are for, right...!!

Swara: (smiles and nods her head) Right...!! Thanks for being there for me...!!
Sanskaar: Always...!! Now, let's go to the class...!!

Swara nods and both of them head towards their class for the rest of the day...

——————————–.

During dinner time at Maheshwari Mansion... Everyone is there at the dinning table enjoying the last meal of the day before calling it a day...

Sanskaar: Mom..!!
Sujata: Hmm...!!
Sanskaar: I'll be late tomorrow...!! Swara and I have some project work and we need to do it together... So we'll be staying at the library after the class to finish off the work..!!
Annapurna: But why are you staying at the library... You can bring her here...!! I think you have a pretty big house...!!
Sujata: Yes... Actually it's a good idea...!! Someday you can bring her here and sometimes you can go to her house...!!
Sanskaar: Is that fine with you all... I mean you don't have any problem...??
Annapurna: Of course not...!! After all she is like a daughter to me...!!
Sujata: So it's final then... Just call her and tell her that she'll be coming here tomorrow...!!

After an hour... Sanskaar calls Swara to which she answers in just second ring...

Swara: Hello...!!
Sanskaar: Woah...!! That was fast...!! What happened Lioness... Waiting for my call...??

As soon as Swara hears her new nickname she blushes remembering their moment back at the parking lot... The way Sanskaar holds her waist and kisses her forehead makes her heart do summersaults...

Sanskaar: Looks like someone is blushing...!!
Swara: Shut up... I'm not blushing...!!
Sanskaar: Who said I was talking about you...??
Swara: Oh really... Then would you be kind enough to enlighten me about whom you are talking...!!
Sanskaar: Umm... I was... I was... (suddenly his eyes fall on something) I was talking about my guitar... Right... I was talking about my guitar...!!
Swara: What... Seriously...!! Your guitar blushes...!!
Sanskaar: Of course... When you have someone as hot as me around you, it's natural to blush...!! And my guitar has feeling...!!
Swara: Well in that case... I would love to see your special guitar...!! So... When are you going to show me...??
Sanskaar: Hmm... How about tomorrow...??
Swara: What...?!?! Tomorrow... As in your house...!! I guess we decided to do the project tomorrow...!!
Sanskaar: That's what we'll be doing...!! Just the venue has been changed...!! Now, you'll be coming to my house...!!
Swara: But...!!
Sanskaar: No ifs and buts... Strict orders from Mom and Badi Maa...!!
Swara: (smiles) Alright...!! See you tomorrow then...!!
Sanskaar: What... Such a quick goodbye...??
Swara: (chuckles) Yes... A quick goodbye for now as I have to go and help Yash with his homework...!! So good night...!!
Sanskaar: Good night My Ms. Incomplete kiss...!!
Swara: I guess I prefer Lioness more...!!
Sanskaar: Nahh... This one is the best..!! Good night...!! Bye..!!
Swara: Bye... Sweet dreams...!!
Sanskaar: Yeah... With lots and lots of hot girls...!!
Swara: Shut up... Give your dirty mind some rest and go to sleep...!! Bye..!!
Sanskaar: Bye...!!

Next morning... All the students are waiting for the teacher to come... Swara is also sitting at her regular place and reading some book...

Sanskaar: Swara...??
Swara: Hmm...!!
Sanskaar: What are you reading...??
Swara: Book...!!
Sanskaar: Really I thought that was the face of your future boyfriend...!! You looked pretty interested in that...!!
Swara: Why...?? Jealous Mr. Maheshwari...!!
Sanskaar: Why would I be jealous when I know he has absolutely no chance in front of me...??
Swara: Why are you always so full of yourself...??
Sanskaar: Leave all that... Let me come straight to the point...!! You are coming to my house today, right...??
Swara: I guess I agreed to that last night only...!!
Sanskaar: Since you are coming to my house then you should listen to whatever I say...!!
Swara: (giving a confused look) Wait... What do you mean...?? Oh no... No... No... I have a bad feeling about this...!! What's going on in your head...??
Sanskaar: Look you said that you can't wear a saree at the college... But since we are going to my house you can wear that there...!!
Swara: Why is your needle stuck at the same point...??
Sanskaar: Say yes or no...!!
Swara: What...??
Sanskaar: Yes or No...!!
Swara: No...!! A hundred times No...!!

And she turns around...

Sanskaar: Well you asked for it...!!

Swara once again starts reading the book when she all of a sudden hears a kissing sound... She lifts her head up to see what's going on but gets utterly confused on finding everyone staring at her with wired expressions plastered on their faces...

Ignoring all the looks she diverts her concentration back to the book... But she hears the sound again... She looks up only to find Sanskaar silently giggling all to himself this time...

Swara: Sanskaar... What did you do...??
Sanskaar: (innocently) What...?? Me...?? What have I done...??
Swara: Don't try to pull that face with me... I know that you are making that weird sound...!!
Sanskaar: What sound...??
Swara: That sound... As if someone is...
Sanskaar: Someone is what...??
Swara: As if someone is kissing...!!
Sanskaar: Oh that sound...!! It's my favorite... Wanna hear...??
Swara: What... No...!!

But before she could protest Sanskaar rolls his lips and makes the sound again... MUUUAAAHHH...!!

Everyone in the class looks at them again and Swara hits her head on the desk...

Swara: Why are you doing this...??
Sanskaar: Just say then that you will wear saree...!!
Swara: Why do you want me to wear that...??
Sanskaar: (shrugs his shoulder) I don't know...!!
Swara: No... It feels weird...!!
Sanskaar: Alright then...

He rolls his lips again but Swara keeps her hand on his mouth...

Swara: Okay... Stop...!! I'll wear it okay... But stop making those weird sounds...!!

Sanskaar winks at her and kisses her palm which is still on his mouth...

Swara: (removing her hand) Eww...!!
Sanskaar: What Eww... You know most girls die for this kiss...!!
Swara: Well then I'm not one of those most girls...!!
Sanskaar: Definitely...!! I'll pick you up at five in the evening...!!
Swara: (nods her head) My shift will also get over by then...!!

Swara is working at the Coffee house taking the orders from the customers standing there in the queue...

She gets done with the customer's order...

Swara: (smiles) Your order will be ready in five minutes..!! Thank you for visiting Coffee House...!!

The customer steps aside... Swara is still looking down at the machine when the next customer comes forward...

Customer: Hii... May I have an espresso with lots and lots of love...!!

Swara's head snaps at once on hearing the voice...

Swara: You...!!

Episode ends...!!
