Arohi, Trisha and Shaurya had been best friends since their childhood and always had studied in the same school or college so in overall they haven't been away from each other for much long as their parents were also best friends.

When they were in college, trisha was a chubby girl though she was cute but some girls used to bully her by saying some hurtful words whenever they would find her alone.

She didn't told about it to her parents and friends as her immature childish mind used to think that they will also start thinking like this if she will tell all this to them and then she will be all alone.

One day when arohi was absent and shaurya was playing with his friends in the ground, trisha was going inside the washroom but her bullies came and started teasing her which made trisha cry but she didn't uttered anything feeling insecure.

When one of the girl pushed trisha back harshly, she screamed and closed her eyes in fear of falling on the ground but it never came as she fell right into her best friend, shaurya's arms.

"Are you okay, panda?" he asked with a caring voice, helping trisha to stand properly and when she nodded her head, he gazed towards the trio of girls standing there with fear visible on their faces as shaurya was the heartthrob of the college.

"Why the hell did you pushed her?" shaurya asked with gritted teeth and grabbed trisha's hand tightly in his as she was crying silently.

"We were just kidding as we are friends and nevertheless you also call her panda so what's wrong in it?" the girl who pushed her earlier said with a scoff.

"Are you out of your mind? I can call her anything which I like because she is my best friend and if I will ever see you misbehaving with my trisha again then just keep in mind that you all three will be removed from the cheerleading team of football and will be banned to participate in any extra curriculum because of which you come college.

By the way, all those endearments with which you were referring her is not for her but for you all because trisha is one of the most beautiful girl and she doesn't need makeup to look so beautiful while you, after having tons of makeup on your fake faces then also you can't even look like her. Now leave" shaurya shouted at the end making all of the girls shiver because of his tone.

After hearing shaurya talking about her like this made her take flips in joy and an unknown feeling arose in her which was more than friendship now whereas shaurya was very angry remembering all thise words which those girls were telling to his trisha.

The trio of the girls left from there after apologising to trisha because they knew that shaurya was not bluffing about banning them from extra activities as he himself was the captain of their college football team and his friend was the incharge for the conduct of all the other activities.

"Trishu.....Why didn't you never told me about them bullying you?" shaurya asked trisha while cupping her face and made her sir on the nearby bench. Trisha didn't said anything and just shook her head.

"Trishu.....All the things which I told right now to those girls were not just for support because I was stating the facts because I really like this chubby panda trisha of mine than to have a trisha like those bitches" shaurya said making trisha chuckle when he referred to those girls as bitches.

"I don't wanted you or Aru to think of me like they do, though I knew that you both won't do something like that but then also, I had some insecurities which made me do something like this" trisha muttered without looking at shaurya because whenever she would gaze into his eyes she would feel her heart beating faster.

"Okay I can understand but promise me that you will not hide anything from me or Aru after this because then I will stop talking to you considering that you don't think of me as your best friend" shaurya said with a pout making her heart sink listening the word Best Friend but she quickly masked and smiled looking at him.

From that day, those girls stopped bullying her and day by day her crush towards shaurya got stronger and stronger though arohi asked her sometimes feeling something off with her in front of shaurya but she didn't uttered a word in fear of rejection and losing a best friend like him.

Fee months passed and she decided that she will at least take a shot in telling shaurya about her liking towards him but on the same day before she could say anything she got her heartbreak when she heard from him that he had started dating one of their classmate..

She cried for few days and completely distanced herself from him but slowly she understood that we can't expect someone to like us back if we like them, because that is not in one's hand to like someone so after that she decided to bury that feeling deep inside her heart and acted normal with him.

After few months of their relationship shaurya and his girlfriend broke up but the reason was not much clear because everytime when someone asked shaurya about his breakup he just said that it was not working without revealing the actual reason and that was the one who he dates was not the one his heart wanted.

Shaurya and trisha both didn't said anything about their feelings to each other thinking of it one sided and that's how time passed and they slowly adapted to the situation without giving much acknowledge to their heart.

Arohi was completely unaware of the feelings her both friends were feeling because if put in words they both were pretty good in hiding their emotions towards each other.

Time flew and they went to camp with their colleagues where trisha was paired up with yash for 10 days arising an emotion of jealousy inside him which made him restless thinking of yash and trisha sharing something other than task partners.

Shaurya was really happy when he saw trisha blushing when he complimented her and that arosed some more hope inside him thinking trisha, his longtime crush may reciprocate his feelings.

10 days passed and he finally decided to confess his feelings to her that evening but Sia, a friend he made recently during tasks came and sat with them well scratch that as she was practically flirting with him publicly.

He smiled seeing trisha getting angry when sia was flirting with him but that quickly turned into a frown when he saw that trisha seemed a bit sad now and she left aome of her food too which she never does.

Sia asked him to meet her the next day with a seductive voice and whispered in his ear 'Thank me later bro' with a wink and left from there recieving a glare from shaurya.

He knew that she didn't had any type of liking towards him like rest of them were thinking because she was already committed to someone though recently she came to know about his crush on trisha and was now playing jealousy card to bring them together not knowing that trisha will believe all her act.

Trisha hastily got up from the chair and told arohi that yash might be waiting for her so she should go immediately and left from there leaving arohi dumbfounded because of her sudden behaviour change.

Shaurya quickly excused himself, promising arohi to tell everything to her later and ran towards the direction where trisha went. Trisha was going to go outside but before that shaurya grabbed her wrists and dragged her with him to a secluded place ignoring all her shoutings to leave her hand.

"Shaurya Where are you taking me?" trisha asked him while trying to pull away her hand from his tight grip though the grip was not painful but it was stronger for her to pull away her hands.

He entered inside a vacant room and pinned her to the wall immediately, after shutting the door making trisha gasp loudly. She forcefully pulled away her hand from him while glaring at him.

"What happened to you suddenly panda?" shaurya asked her moving towards her till there was mere inches distance between making trisha's expression change from angry to nervous.

"Sha......shaurya what are you do...doing?" trisha stuttered feeling his breadth fanned over her face and this was the first time they were close to each other like this though they had hugged each other many times but at that instant it was something different.

"Do you like me.....not as friend but you know what I am trying to say right now?" shaurya asked her pulling her face upwards to look into her eyes as trisha was not looking at his face which was the first time he had ever seen her behaving like this.

"Do you?" he again asked when he didn't recieved any answer from trisha but he was a bit taken aback when he saw trisha trisha shaking her head in no. He clenched his fist to control himself from saying something which might hurt her because he knew that she likes him but was on complete denial.

"Don't lie when we both completely know the truth" shaurya said a bit loudly but trisha still didn't said anything and stood their looking at the floor finding it more interesting instead of a handsome man standing in front of her.

"What the hell is your problem trisha? Damn it!! SPEAK SOMETHING" shaurya shouted at the top of his voice making trisha shiver from his cold voice and the way he said her full name with so much annoyance but everything has limit and she couldn't keep this fact to herself now.

"Yeah!! I like you. So what now huh? You are gonna reject me anyway so why the hell are you so wager to know my feelings and I am sorry that I caused so much trouble in our friendship by developing feeling towards you. I know that you will tell me that I shouldn't have developed any kind of feeling for you because we are best friends but I can't help my hea......" trisha was saying everything very loudly in anger but she stopped when she felt shaurya's lips moving rapidly over hers in a fierce kiss.

Shaurya pressed his lips onto hers with such a force that the vase on the table got cracked due to falling on the floor but that didn't stopped them from sucking all the oxygen out of each other. When trisha was out of breadth she punched shaurya's shoulder and he detached his lips from hers with a tug on it.

"Trishu! I like you so much from a longtime but didn't had courage to tell you that as I feared rejection from you!" shaurya whispered caressing trisha's cheeks which had tears running down her cheeks and kissed her cheeks making trisha blush profusely.

"Really?" trisha asked and shaurya nodded his head. He thought that it would be the correct time for him to ask her to be his girlfriend so after taking few deep breaths he looked at trisha.

"Panda, Will you be my girlfriend?" he asked looking at her with hopeful eyes but a bright smile made it's way to his lips when he saw trisha nodding hwr head muttering a yes.

He was again going to kiss her but trisha stopped him by placing her hands on his chest making him looking towards her with confused eyes.

"I would love to be your girlfriend but first I want arohi to know everything about us before we make anything official though I know that she will be happy for us but then too I don't want something to start without telling her" trisha said and shaurya also agreed because he also knew that if he would not tell this to arohi forst it would be wrong of him as she is also his best friend.

"Done!! Let's talk to her tonight" shaurya said and after sharing a kiss they both went to their respective partners who were waiting for them from long time near their cars. 

Yash asked trisha about the reason of her blushing and smiling to herself to herself and she told him that she will tell everything to him tomorrow because she desperately wanted to arohi know about her relationship first.

Trisha didn't knew that shaurya also had feelings for her because if she would have known that then she would have definitely told arohi about it but because of her past insecurities she didn't got much courage to disclose about her crush.

Trisha touched her lips and smiled to herself remembering the kiss she shared with shaurya few minutes ago and quickly retreated her hand back when she saw yash looking at her weirdly but with an amused expression too as from her expression he understood that she finally had found the one for her.
