They were the golden boys of Indian cricket-Shubman Gill and KL Rahul-unstoppable on the field, inseparable off it. One had love wrapped around his finger; the other didn't even bother trying.

Shubman is head over heels for Sara Tendulkar, the ever-graceful daughter of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. Their picture-perfect relationship is all things charming and chaotic. But when Shubman notices his best friend KL Rahul brooding in his singlehood, he and Sara decide to play matchmakers.

Enter Sanjna Malangi, a fiercely independent veterinarian from Bangalore who's new to Mumbai and completely uninterested in cricket. She doesn't care that KL Rahul is a national heartthrob-she just knows he walked into her clinic with a sick dog and a clueless face.

As accidental meetings turn into reluctant dates, and reluctance turns into real feelings, love begins to bloom where neither expected it.

From dressing rooms to dog parks, from stadium lights to quiet sunsets, "When Cupid Bats First" is a witty, romantic, and heartwarming tale of two couples navigating friendship, fame, and the unexpected turns of the heart.

Because sometimes, love is a game-and sometimes, it's the prize.

In the bustling halls of St. Teresa's College, Shubman Gill is known as much for his cricket prowess as for his aloof demeanor. Balancing the demands of being a top player for the Gujarat Titans and a dedicated student, Shubman has little patience for anything that disrupts his routine-least of all, Sara Tendulkar, the new transfer student from St. Lawrence's College. Sara, on the other hand, arrives at St. Teresa's with a mission to escape her past and start anew. With her best friend, Aditi Hundia, by her side, Sara is determined to make the most of her new beginning, but she can't help but clash with Shubman's indifferent attitude. Their initial animosity is palpable, with Shubman's competitive spirit and Sara's fiery personality often leading to sparks flying in the classroom and on the cricket field. Yet, beneath the surface of their bickering, a deeper connection begins to emerge. As Sara integrates into St. Teresa's and the two are forced to collaborate on a college project, their barriers start to crumble. The walls they've built to keep each other at arm's length slowly give way, revealing shared vulnerabilities and unexpected common ground. As their relationship evolves from rivals to partners, Shubman and Sara navigate the challenges of college life, cricket pressures, and their own burgeoning feelings for one another. Their journey is one of discovery, self-growth, and the realization that sometimes love blossoms where it's least expected.

In the final moment before her destruction, Wanda Maximoff " the Scarlet Witch " is pulled into a void beyond time or form. Lost in the abyss of her guilt, a mysterious light touches her... and brings her back. Not to her world, but to another. One where magic is different. Where redemption might take shape: the world of Harry Potter. When a luminous figure " a doe " shows her the memories of a boy abandoned and mistreated by his relatives, Wanda understands her new purpose: to protect Lily Potter's son. Though she doesn't know why she was chosen, she accepts the deal. In exchange for a chance at redemption, she will care for little Harry. But Wanda is no ordinary witch. And this world is not ready for her. From the very first moment on Privet Drive, the Dursleys will feel that something has changed. With power, resolve, and growing compassion, Wanda will face a new destiny. Because this time... no one will touch the boy without facing her. After all, who better to protect the Boy Who Lived... than the Scarlet Witch herself? Author's Disclaimer: This story is loosely inspired by the initial premise of Strange Potter, a work I greatly admire and that served as a creative spark for developing this project. Although the plot, character development, and events are entirely original and distinct, I believe it's only fair to acknowledge that initial influence. Likewise, this is a non-profit fanfic that blends elements from the Marvel and Harry Potter universes, whose rights belong to their respective creators and owners (Marvel/Disney and J.K. Rowling). This work is made with respect and with the intention of paying tribute to these worlds that so many of us have enjoyed.
