Nandini's POV.
I was holding some sticks in my hand. Cabir bhai dimmed the lights. Okay so guys these are glow stick rings. Aur yeh hai stand. Game bohot simple hai hume bas maximum rings ko iss stick ke ander daalna hai in 30 seconds. Mukti and navya seemed to be excited about this while my boyfriend made a bad face.

Yaar main ni khel rha yeh game. Manik whined. Expected! Kyu bey! Ab tujhe kya problem hai. Mukti hit him on his shoulder. Abey yaar mera nishana kabhi nhi jaata. Main humesha haar jaata hoon iss game main. He cribbed and moved inside the tent hiding himself. Awwing at him I kneeled outside his tent. Manik it's ok it's just a game.

Nhi nandini. I m not playing this. Main haar jaoga aur tumhara bhai meri khili udayega. Cabir bhai started laughing loudly which made manik crib more. Dekha saala Besharam abhi se has rha hai. Haar gya toh do mahine tak isske taane sun ne padege. Nhi main ni khel rha yeh.

Suppressing my giggles I tried calling him again. Manik try toh kro. Kya pta iss baar kuch kaam aa jaye. Aur tum hi bolte ho na I m your lucky charm. Don't worry I will not let you loose.

There was complete silence in the room for some two minutes. Nhi. No. A big no. Something in me triggered and I smiled evilly to myself. Kya matlab no! Main tumhari lucky charm nhi hoon! Yeh sila diya tumne pyaar ka! I made a crying dukhi face. His eyes widened and the next moment he slid out of the tent and cupped my cheeks wiping the fake non existing tears. Ni baby! Aisa ni hai. You are my lucky charm. Always! It's just mujhe na....yeh....woh actually.....he sighs. Yaar main humesha haar jaata hoon. No matter what.

I smiled and kissed his cheeks. Don't worry iss baar main hoon na. Hum saath main khelege. Aur jeetege bhi. I will teach you. I m a pro at it. I winked at him. He smiled not before placing a chaste kiss on my cheeks, making me smile wider. Oye laila-majnu tum dono ka koochie coo ho gya toh hum game shuru kre.

Of course cabir bhai Aur dekhna iss baar manik aur main aapko hara dege. We got up and started the game. Navya was the first one. She was able to put 3 rings in the stick correctly. Followed by mukti who was able to put only 1 ring in the stick.

Cabir bhai looked at us with a challenging look and damn! 7 rings perfectly inside the stick. I gulped nevertheless smirked at him. Manik tried pulling back but I held his hand and got him to stand at the spot. I stood right in front of him.

I held the glow ring ready to throw when manik placed his hand exactly above mine. His touch made me look in his eyes only to be locked in his passionate gaze. We both kept looking at each forgetting about the surrounding.

My eyes were still locked with his while he slided his other hand on my hand from behind. He slid his arm on my waist and in an reflex he clutched my waist tight in his possessive hold. I could feel his strong gaze on my lips and I wanted to push him but couldn't. He held me close to him. His face inched closer to mine. Manikkkkk. My voice was a mere whisper. He nuzzled in my cheeks.

Guys just a reminder target waha hai ek dusre ki aankhon main nhi. Mukti's words forced us to break our eye lock, making both of us blush. Ready? I asked manik who hmmed. We both tossed the ring and it fell almost 30 steps away from the stand. Our friends laughed and clapped while me and manik looked at each other.

Waah kya shot hai. Excellent. Mind blowing. Superb. Aur nandu tum mujhe harane wali thi. Cabir taunted while manik rubbed his nape and nandini looked everywhere other than in cabir's eyes.

Haan toh theek hai na 10 rings hai total. Ek hi miss hua hai. Itna phudak mat. Go for it baby. Manik cheered for me. He kissed my cheek and moved a little away from me. I looked at him quizzically. He pointed towards the ring stand and then to my eyes. I understood what he wanted. I smiled and nodded.

Taking a deep breathe I focused on the game and threw the ring. And shot! I gleed happily while manik was the one who was clapping loudly for me. I showed my tongue to cabir. He just snorted. Ek hi gyi hai. You have to put 7 more rings nandu. I glared at him and again focused in the game. Nandu isski baato pe dhyaan mat do. Tum game pe focus kro. Shockingly it was navya who was cheering for me.

Navyaaaaa! Tum meri girlfriend ho. You should be on my side. Manik ko dekho kitna devoted hai nandini ke liye. Aur tumhe dekho. Dhokebaaz kahi ki! Navya just ignored and cheered for me. Focusing again I threw another ring and shot! Next one too was a shot! What followed was 5 rings in a row were a perfect shot. And that makes it 8!

I WIN! I WIN! Saying this I jumped in maniks arms. I wrapped my arms around his neck. He hoisted me up making me wrap my legs around his waist. He was carrying me like a baby. Congratulations Baby! He whispered kissing my ear. I smiled and hugged him more tightly. He circled with me still in his arms making me laugh and giggle.

He too was smiling along with me. Ab hogya tum dono ka toh hume bhi nandu ko congrats bolna hai. Manik put me down while Navya and mukti pulled me in a girl group hug. Tum log aise khush ho rhe ho jaise nandini ne koi board exam main top kiya ho na. Huh! Cabir spoke in full attitude making all of laugh at him.

Arrey tumhe toh mujhe thank you bola chahiye! Meri wajah se jeeti ho tum. I walked upto him and stood exactly at one hands distance away. ACCHA! Aur woh kaise Mr. Dhawan?

Arrey agar main woh teen rings jaan bhuj ke miss ni krta na toh pakka main jeet jata. Bacchi samjh ke tumpe rehm kr diya maine. Huh! I patiently stood there letting him speak. Accept it cabir tum haar gye ho! All this is not going to change the fact that you loooooost!

Cabir scrunched his eyebrows and whined. Dekhti jao next game main pakka tumhe hara dunga. Dekh laina. Glaring at him I said, Done Deal! Breaking through our glares mukti stepped in between creating a wall. Ab tum dono apni yeh faltu ki fight side main rakho. Aur batao next game kya hai.

Next game! Cabir said rubbing his palms in excitement. Oye footage ki dukaan zyada bhaav mat kha aur seedha seedha bata. Manik spoke in a total bored tone. Cabir looked at him with a blank face but must have decided to ignore him.

So the next game is......... Cabir stopped while all of us looked at him with raised eyebrows. Since the glow stick game was my choice this game was cabir's choice. He didn't disclose it to me saying it's a "top secret". Yaar chhodo yeh btane ni wala. Bekaar ka footage kha rha aur time pass kr rha hai. Good night guys.

Arrey mukti ruk na bta tha hoon main. Mukti looked at him with poker face. Jaldi bta warna bohot maarungi.

Haan haan bta rha hoon. It's called "I won't laugh".

Care to explain.

Bta rha hoon na. Thodi toh shaanti rkh life main.

Mukti made a whatever face. Cabir turned his head to look at all of us.

So like the name says you are not supposed to laugh. A video, a funny video to be precise, will be played and all you have to do is not laugh at it.

Yeh kya behudi game hai. Funny video play krega toh kisko hasi ni aayegi. Manik commented. That's the catch guys. It's all about self control. Jo banda hasega woh haar jayega. You can't even smile a bit. Your face should be extremely neutral.

All of us looked at him with a blank face. Yes yes exactly aise face hona chahiye. Toh chalo khele. Let's go. He walked back to the tent area and sat down. We all still stood there looking at him with a poker face.

Writer's POV
Are we really gonna play this? Manik asked cabir. YESSSSSSS! Cabir air punched to show his excitement. Sighing all them walked and again settled in their respective tents. Cabir put the video on the laptop and placed it in the centre.

10 seconds passed by and all of them were already loosing their self control. By the time 20 seconds of the video was done all of them had their knees clutched tightly to prevent fom bursting out. 30 seconds down and navya was already laughing like a maniac. Seeing her laugh others were finding it more difficult to Control.

1 minute through the video and all of them were rolling on the floor laughing, chortling and guffawing. Manik and cabir were laughing like maniacs. While the girls were holding onto their sides to reduce the pain. Damn this was one of the best nights. Thank you guys. Manik spoke trying to sustain back his laughter.

Amidst random talking, pulling each others legs and loads of laughter, one by one each of them started to fall asleep except manik. Covering each one of them properly with a blanket and dimming the lights manik grabbed a beer can.

He walked towards his room and settled himself in the floor taking the bed as his support. Sipping onto the beer manik was lost in deep thoughts until he felt a hand winding around his biceps.
