i was sitting on the deck of the pool near the auditorium. I had taken off my shoes and had rolled up my jeans so that they were settled at my knee. My feet were feeling the coolness of the water beneath them

i could hear voices of people cheering and the booming of music from a distance indicating the ongoing of the auditions. I smiled to myself just trying to listen to the music and creating my own steps at the tunes and suddenly my face lifted up towards the sky and found that the stars had already found their way up and were now looking down at me with twinkling smiles on their faces

"counting stars, are we?" i heard a sexy voice been from behind me. i didn't have to turn around to know the owner of the voice "Buzz off JERK!" i tried shooing him away " where to?" he asked smugly taking a seat beside me and putting his feet into the water "Oh shucks!! its freezing!" he said startled and jumping away "varun its pool water of course they can not just warm it up....."i tried reasoning with him "yeah....i guess so" he said scratching the back of his neck awkwardly

He looked so cute doing that , that i started laughing and i guess my laughter was contagious because he started laughing as well and again came and sat next to me 'so why here all alone huh?"he questioned after finally regaining his voice "oh just....i wanted some alone time "i replied and then looked up at him "you go back to that filthy girl having her hands all over you!"

i said shoving a finger to his chest "Is that jealousy i smell?" he said while sniffing the air "NO way ! you jerk" i defended myself and saw the appearance of his signature smirk on those remarkably sculptured lips. I huffed and looked away. Silence surrounded us for a few seconds before varun tried to break it "when did you start dancing?" he asked out of the blue. i smiled and answered "when i was just four years old" "Interesting"

he said looking me straight in the eye encouraging me to go on "i have always had this affinity towards dancing. My mom tells me that i knew had to dance even before i learned how to walk..she is crazy..."i said smiling to myself and looked down pushing a lock of stray hair behind my ear "my parents are very supportive when it comes to dancing......" I looked at him but found him looking right through me he had a dazed expression on his manicured face

"HEY ! are you even listening!?!?!?!" i snapped my fingers in front of his face bringing back to the present moment "oh yeah...what were you saying" i looked at him as if he was from outer space "well actually it is your fault that i got distracted!" he pointed a finger at me accusingly "excuse me how is it my fau-" "yes of course it is your fault why did you push that lock of hair behind your ear distracting me!?!?!" he accused cutting me off. Listening to what he said i turned the brightest shade of purple! "YOU FLIRT!!!" i shouted and pushed him away from me . He fell backwards but dragged me along with him so that now i was on top of him

our faces were just inches away......no......dangerously inches away if either of us made any movement our lips would brush against each other. He stared at me and i stared back at him and then his gaze moved down to my lips then back up to my eyes and then again down to my lips. Then he did the most crazy thing....he leaned in and pressed his lips gently on mine and i smiled inwardly knowing i won i quickly pushed myself away from him and stood up doing a victory dance grabbing my shoes i starred walking away

"BABE! come back here this moment!" i heard his hoarse sexy voice calling out to me " In your wildest dreams ...uh-huh huh....." i sang and laughed at the same time . i heard him growl but then he said something that made me stop dead on my tracks "you and me aren't finished YET" i shivered at his threat and quickly scurried away towards my friends hoping that he does not follow

...............................................................

"students take your assigned seats please" requested mr raichand. Finally all the dances had come to an end and now it was result time! 'everyone was fabulous but he decision making was important so at no.16 we have simian katyal......" miss sultan went on and i had my fingers crossed at all times "no.8 is shanaya singhania" "woohoo!!" we screamed high giving shan "no.7 is rohan nanda" i jumped and hugged him from behind because he was sitting ahead of me....duh!

"no.4 is rachel willson" she jumped up and said "so obvious" Fanning herself she sat back down UGH!! this bitch "no.3 is abhimanyu singh oberoi!" abhi stood up and bowed down to which i started giggling and stood up to kiss his cheek and hugged him "yeah!!" i cheered and sat back down feeling a bit nervous about my situation but found varun's intense glare burning my side i just shrugged it off because i hd more important things to attend to "no.2 is varun singh oberoi!" "yeah babe!" rachel perched pinching his cheeks to which he made a disgusted face and that made me chuckle "And no.1 is MISS ROSHNI RAYMOND GUJRAL!!"

" OH! MY! GOD!" i said standing up "yeah seriously OH MY GOD! EWW" rachel butted in "butt out slut" shan defended and gave me a hug. I sat back down and abhi returned my kiss and said "so obvious" to which i started giggling and suddenly my eyes caught the sight of his brother who was staring at me as if he would eat me raw! that thought made me shiver and suddenly my mind drifted off to our little conversation back at the pool "you and me aren't finished YET" i quickly looked away and touched my lips which were not more than an hour before touching his plump and fuller ones and a shy smile crept on my lips

i looked at him and he also had a genuine smile stuck to his lips as if he knew what was on my mind "okay kids the next round is with partners so we have two counters each having a bowl with slips who have nos. from 1-8 written on them one by one you all will go pick up a slip and find your partner with the same no. as on the slip...clear? now boys to one side and the girls to one side please" we obliged by the orders and went to pick a slip i so wanted to pair up with abhi because he was the one with whom i had been dancing with all these years as i approached the counter i closed my eyes and laid mu hand inside the bowl

sensing that i had grabbed a slip i shoved my hand out of the bowl and moved to a counter to open it the no.1 flashed in front of my eyes and then i looked up to see that everyone had already started the quest for their partners i too joined in and spotted shan with ro "hey guys whom are you paired up with?" i shouted coming near them "each other" they both said at the same time and then started laughing i looked at them as if they were a new species and thought to myself that why is love so stupid??

anyways i called out to abhi who said that he was no.2 that made me disappointed but i hugged him and shouted "WHO THE HELL IS NO.1!?!"

"I AM...." whispered a voice huskily into my ear and i quickly turned around to meet his intense brown gaze "ummm w-well..... s-so.....i-i....." dammit now i was stuttering but i couldn't help it . He gave me his signature smirk and crushed me hard into his chest whispering " welcome to my world"

to which i rolled my eyes and giggled sarcastically looks like i still have to deal with this jerk of mine....wait mine? why do i like the sound of that?
