A/N: A light semi comedy chapter that focuses on friendships. Some Paran. I finished my A1 level exam in German. Waiting for the results! Wish me luck people!

"Sanyu! Are you okay!" Kaustuki rushed to her roommate and helped her stand up.

"I'm great. I'm good. I'm so good that I am going to kick his ass and become the Dream Team captain. You'll see!" Sanyukta slurred, her hands clutching at Kaustuki's shoulders "You believe in me don't you?"

"Ofcourse I do! You are the smartest person I have ever met. And the nicest too." Kaustuki smiled

"My head hurts. And everything is spinning. Why is everything spinning? Are we on a merry go round? I don't like merry go rounds. They make me all woozy and ..." Sanyukta slumped against Kaustuki.

"We should get her back to her room. She needs to sleep it off." Isha herself was a little tipsy, but not tipsy enough to fall down or walk without support.

"I'll help" Vidushi offered, letting go of Parth.

"No , it's fine. I'll help them." Sahil offered. He hesitated slightly before explaining "You are wearing...heels and I don't want any of you getting injured."

Vidushi looked down at her 4 inch heels and sighed. "Note to self, wear flats. Got it."

"Some of us need to clear up this mess." Azaan frowned.

They looked around at the room.

Lays wrappers and glasses.

"I can help you clean up Azaan" Jiggy offered.

"It's not fair that just the two of you clean up, honestly. We all did this and all of us should help." Parth smiled "Team Remember?"

All of them nodded. Except for Sanyukta, who was sitting down on the floor, clutching her head.

"But someone needs to take her back to the dorm. Before she faints. Or worse, throws up" Vidushi pointed.

Everyone cringed.

"I'll go." Isha offered. "Between me, Kaustuki and Sahil we should be okay"

"Alright. Then me, Parth, Azaan, Yoyo and Vidushi will clean this room up." Jiggy sighed

"You'll be buying us all tea in the morning for the cleaning up fee." Vidushi pouted "I don't clean often. But when I do I don't do it for free."

"Acha baba okay. We will buy you tea. Now start cleaning up. We need to get sleep as well. Don't you DT people need to get sleep?" Kaustuki signaled to Isha.

Isha grabbed Sanyukta's arm and slung it over her shoulder. Kaustuki did the same.

"I think we can manage without Sahil" Kaustuki smiled.

"I'll help clean up then." Sahil smiled back.

Between the six of them , they got the room cleaned up in about fifteen minutes.

"Goodnight you all." Vidushi waved at the boys.

They waved back. Yawning. Nodding.

"I'm going to walk you back. It's late." Parth took her by her forearm.

"That's nice." Vidushi gently pried his hand away from her arm "But I really can take care of myself."

"Are you uncomfortable with me?" he asked. There was no anger on his face.

"No. You are nice. I feel comfortable with you. Too comfortable. And it scares me." She placed a soft kiss on his cheek and walked away.

He smiled. He couldn't help it. But she was right. Getting too close too soon was probably not a good idea. If he wanted it to work, he would have to give her time and space.
