They're kissing. Well, sort of.
They appear to be frozen to the point that they can't even part away from each other. Léandre, thankfully, considers the logistics of human respiration and takes a few steps back. Other than that, neither Swara nor Léandre seems to be making another move anytime soon.
And neither does the cafeteria.
"Well, now that it's happening," says Casimir, from his seat at the table right next to the immobilized disaster duo.
"If I may," he rises up from his place only to move to the other side of the table where Yaemiya is seated. She is as stock-still because of her best friend suddenly smooching her nemesis as one should be, but that doesn't stop her eyes from following Casimir as he comes to stand in front of her.
Then proceeds to plop down on one knee and whip out a wristband with rose stickers on it.
"Yae, may I have the honor of dining with you on any of your less industrious but equally invaluable days?"
The bystanders, including Swara and Léandre, have every right to faint.
.............................................................
When Yaemia Roy and Swara Mallik get the approval for their preferred college in Boston, they should've known that with the phenomenal luck that they have, things go in every other way but the one that's planned.

But I Still Want You
"Give me one valid reason as to why I should sign this?" He said leaning back on his chair, folding his arms against his chest. "Umm...you'd get a young, intelligent, empathetic, loyal and a passionate wife? And Bonus, she's gorgeous as well." she answered with a grin, flipping her hair back. "You forgot to add childlike." He smirked. "I ain't a child. You're the one acting like a child here. You know the situation we are in well enough, so just sign it. Now will you?" she insisted. "Correction. Not 'we' but 'I'. It's a 'situation' for you, not for me. So, ask politely." He said, with the smirk not leaving his face. "Seriously!?" She frowned to which he nodded closing his eyes. "Argh! Fine-", she let out a sigh before continuing, "Will you please sign these papers?" "Oh Zara, I was expecting better." he showed his displeasure. Zara sighed again. Knowing his intentions very well. She walked closer to him plastering a fake smile on her face. Seeing her approaching him, Evan stood up adorning a smile. Before he could say anything Zara smacked his face with a fist and hit him on the legs with her foot making him wince in pain. She laughed like a maniac watching him plead in front of her. "I'm still waiting, Ms. Zara." His voice snapped her back into reality. What a bold dream! She sighed in defeat, before replying to him.

Maze
(CURRENTLY REVAMPED!) (The Slices of Life, #1) For years, one thing that had always bothered Serena Wilton is the idea of reconciling with a past friend. Whenever he was around, her eyes rested upon him; whether it was at classes or outside of school. She yearned for those wonderful memories again, but the looming fear just wouldn't let her initiate the conversation. Serena clearly remembered how their paths crossed in that one field trip, and the instant click as they interacted. He was nothing but a sunny friend with such contagious confidence... until that accident. Not only did he turn into someone Serena never recognized, but the relationship they built together, soured and crumbled apart. Even so, perhaps her plans can actually work if she's willing to push that stupid anxiety away and speak a word or two. Piece of cake, right?

His voice is like velvet, filling up the room. His lips are back on my neck, his tongue trails over the skin. The voice, the lips, are familiar. "You might mess up my pretty face."
