Days passed very fast and Shehnaaz's exams were also over. She went to her 3rd year while her life was nothing less than a fairy tale. She was living with the ruthless mafia who was so caring and loving only for her. Inspite of his so many flaws, she felt herself drawn towards him. The slow burn romance between them was evident. She didn't know if it was only attraction or she was actually falling in love. But whatever happening she was loving it.

One day, Shehnaaz's college announced about the upcoming Prom night.

"Shehnaaz, tujhe paata hai iss baar Prom Night mein na humare college wale bohut dhasu arrangements kar rahe hai. Party ka theme fairy tale hoga. Tu kya pehen ke aayegi?" Asked Shivangi excitedly.

"Main iss se pehle kabhi prom night pe gayi hoon jo iss baar jaaungi?" Asked Shehnaaz giving a fake smile.

"Yaar woh toh pehle ki baat hai. Woh tere khadoos Papa tujhe jaane nahi dete the. Abhi toh tu apne hone wale husband ke saath reh rahi hai jo......"

Before Shivangi could complete, Shehnaaz said, "Jo mujhe aur bhi jaane nahi dega. College mein aane ki permission badi mushkil se mili hai. Ab agar paata chala ki mujhe prom night pe jaana hai woh bhi kisi male partner ke saath jo ki compulsory hai, phir uska kya reaction hoga yeh tu acche se jaanti hai."

"Arrey yaar woh sab mujhe paata hai. Lekin tu bhul rahi hai Sidharth iss college ka trustee hai. Woh chahe toh tera partner ban ke aa sakta hai and nobody will even object. Just imagine, tum dono haath pe haath daal ke prom night pe aaoge, prince and princess ki tarah ready hoke. Tum dono ki life toh waise hi kisi fairy tale se kam nahi hai, it will look so romantic."

Hearing Shivangi's words, Shehnaaz imagined the scene for a moment and her cheeks turned red.

But she immediately changed her expression and said, "Romantic kaise hoga? Humare bich koi romance nahi hai. Kabhi ho hi nahi sakta."

"Accha? Tabhi thodi der pehle tu aise blush kar rahi thi. Jhut bolne ki bhi ek limit hoti hai." Said Shivangi rolling her eyes.

"Mera chhor tu apna baata. Tu kiske saath jaa rahi hai prom night pe?"

Shivangi's face turned sad and she said, "Woh toh tab decide karungi jab mujhe aane ki permission milegi."

"Kyu? Tere parents ne toh pichli baar tujhe aane diya tha."

"Haan lekin woh pehle ki baat thi. Filhaal toh woh mere liye rishta dhund rahe hai, they want me to get married. Aur aise mein I don't think woh mujhe prom night pe jaane denge."

"What?" Asked Shehnaaz with disbelief. "Lekin tu toh itni zaldi shaadi nahi karna chahti thi na? Tujhe pehle job karna tha. Tu toh studies mein bhi itni acchi hai. Phir Uncle Aunty itni zaldi teri shaadi kyu karana chahte hai?"

"That's how our society is. Ladki chahe kitna bhi padh le. Akhir mein usse toh ghar hi sambhalna hai. Baad mein agar accha rishta na mile toh? Isliye abhi se dhund na suru kar do. Aur mil jaaye toh shubh muharat dekh ke haath pile kar do uske. Yaheen toh chalta aa raha hai."

Shivangi's eyes became teary while saying and Shehnaaz kept her hand on her shoulder.

Then she smiled forcefully and said, "Woh chhor. Main aau yaa naa aau, tu apne uss hot Devil ko leke zaroor aana. Last year hai college ka. Yeh miss mat kar."

Shehnaaz sighed and said, "Thik hai. Main Sidharth se puchhungi. Agar woh prom night ke liye maan gaya, then it's nice."

Meanwhile Mayank was passing from there when he heard Shehnaaz's words.

"Shehnaaz prom night pe aa rahi hai? Matlab yeh hi ek mauka hai. Mujhe kaise bhi kar ke iss mauke ka fayda uthana hoga." He said in his mind.

At Night...

Shehnaaz was studying in her room when Sidharth came to her room.

"Aur aaj ka din kaisa raha college mein?" He asked.

"Thik tha." She replied looking at the book.

"Okay. Woh main tujhe batane aaya tha ki main kuch dino ke liye bahar jaa raha hoon. Sayad agle Sunday evening tak wapas aa jaau." He said further.

"Kya?" Freaked out Shehnaaz. She kept the book aside and stood up.

"Aise kaise tum bahar jaa sakte ho. Tumhe paata hai agle Sunday kya hai?"

"Important deal hai meri, aur kya?"

Shehnaaz nodded her head in disbelief and said, "Tumhare stupid business deals ke alawa bhi iss duniya mein bohut saari chizein hoti hai. Agle Sunday humare college mein prom night hai."

"Paata hai mujhe. Mere paise se hi toh itni badi arrangements ho rahi hai. Toh kya hogaya?"

"Toh kya hogaya matlab? Mujhe prom night pe jaana hai."

"That's imp....."

Before he could complete, Shehnaaz said, "Tumhare saath."

"Mere saath?" Asked Sidharth with disbelief to which Shehnaaz nodded in yes making a pout.

"Ab prom night pe jaane ke liye partner ki zaroorat hai aur tum mujhe kisi aur ladke ke saath jaane nahi doge. Toh tum ban jaao mere partner."

Hearing that, Sidharth somehow controlled his smile and asked, "Prom night pe tum mujhe apna partner bana na chahti ho? Are you sure?"

"Aur koi option hi nahi hai." Said Shehnaaz sitting on the bed. "Waise ek taraf se accha bhi hai. Main kabhi prom night pe gayi nahi. Aur tum toh bohut pehle hi woh phase paar kar chuke hoge. Isliye tumhara experience zyada hoga."

"Woh toh hai." Said Sidharth sitting beside her. "Aur maine toh London se graduation complete kiya hai. Udhar toh yeh prom nights and all aur bhi kamal ke hote hai."

"Tum sach mein prom night pe gaye the?" She asked while her face grew little serious.

"Haan haan. College ke saare students jaate hai. Main kyu nahi jaaunga?"

"Toh tum kiske saath gaye the?" She asked curiously.

"Woh meri ek friend thi, Sheena. Uske saath." He replied.

"Accha.... Sheena." She said while her expression was totally changed.

"Toh kya kya hua tha tumhare prom night pe?" She asked further.

"Hona kya hai? Pehle hum dono ready hoke gaye. Phir udhar sabne dance kiya apne apne partners ke saath...."

"Tumne aur Sheena ne bhi dance kiya?" Asked Shehnaaz sternly.

"Yeah like everyone else." Replied Sidharth.

"Okay... Then?"

"Then kuch events hue and kuch prizes and all mile the sayad and then... Woh hi kiya jo har ladka ladki karte hai."

"Woh bhi kiya?"

Shehnaaz almost screamed. Her eyes got widened.

"Woh toh main hai. Woh nahi karenge toh kaise chalega?" Said Sidharth intentionally while Shehnaaz's expression turned into an angry one.

"Haan haan. Woh toh hoga hi tumhare liye.... Important." She said gritting her teeth while clutching her own dress tightly.

"Haan. Prom night ke baad ghar toh wapas aana hi hai sabko." Said Sidharth further and Shehnaaz anger faded away.

"Toh tum ghar wapas aane ki baat kar rahe the?" She asked smiling. She was relieved hearing that.

"Haan. Tum kuch aur soch rahi thi?"

"Nahi toh. Kuch nahi."

"Then why are you so happy?"

"I'm happy because.... tumne kaha na prom night pe dance karna hota hai. Aur mujhe toh katthak aata hai. That's why I am happy."

Hearing that, Sidharth gave a shocking expression.

"Tu prom night pe katthak karne wali hai?" He asked being puzzled.

"Haan. Tumhe katthak aati hai?"

Sidharth gave a fake smile and said, "Haan bilkool aati hai. Hum dono saath mein mere dholna pe dance karenge."

Shehnaaz gave a huge smile and said, "Yeh sahi rahega."

Sidharth rolled his eyes and said, "Abbe Gadhi, prom night pe ladka ladki ball dance karte hai."

"Lekin mujhe toh woh nahi aata. Tum shikha doge?"

"Main shikha deta but....." Sidharth took a pause and said, "Mujhe kaal hi nikalna hai aur sayad hi main agle Sunday evening tak wapas aa jaau. Isliye humara prom night pe jaane ka idea... Cancel."

"Lekin Sidharth...."

Before she could say, Sidharth stood up and started leaving from there.

"Tum nahi gaye toh... Main kisi aur ladke ke saath chali jaaungi.... Phir tum dekhna....."

Shehnaaz kept saying but Sidharth left from there without saying anything.

"Isko toh kuch fark hi nahi padha. Waise mere saath kyu prom night pe jayega? Apne time pe toh full enjoy kar liya hai apni Sheena Meena Deeka ke saath aur meri baari aayi toh maana kar diya..... Meri kismat hi kharab hai. Huh!" Said Shehnaaz in her mind and took her pillow in her lap making a sad pout.

Next day, Sidharth left and Shehnaaz became sad. She really wanted to go to the prom with Sidharth, not with anyone else. As he was not there, she also decided that she would not go.

Next Sunday...

It was few hours before the prom night. Shehnaaz was scrolling her phone sadly.

"Sidharth bohut bura hai. Kya hota mere saath prom night pe chala jaata toh? Mujhe thodi khushi mil jaati. Lekin usse meri khushi ki fikar thodi hai? Usse toh bas apne business deal ki padhi hai. Devil kahi ka!" She said in her mind.

Suddenly a maid knocked at the door of her room.

"Aa sakti hoon?" She asked standing outside.

"Aa jaao." Said Shehnaaz and the maid entered with a packed box.

"Yeh Sir ne aap ke liye bheja hai." She said keeping the box near her.

"Sidharth ne?"

A smile came to her face and she asked excitedly, "Woh wapas aa gaya kya?"

The maid didn't reply and went away leaving Shehnaaz confused.

She unpacked the box hurriedly and found a beautiful yellow dress. With that she found a small note.

My beautiful princess,
Agar tujhe prom night se pehle uska ek chhota sa demo chahiye toh isse pehen ke apne dance room mein aaja.
With love,
Your prince sorry devil

Shehnaaz started smiling and blushing reading the note. She looked at the dress cutely and then went to wear it.

After sometime, she got ready in the dress.

Shehnaaz's look 👇🏻

Then she went to the dance room which opened by scanning her face. She entered and the next moment she heard some footsteps.

Shehnaaz turned behind and saw Sidharth entering the room wearing a blue tuxedo.

Sidharth's look 👇🏻

Shehnaaz became surprised seeing Sidharth like this. He was looking so different. No doubt he always looks handsome and hot but today he was not looking like a devil. He was looking like the prince of her dream.

Sidharth was also speechless as Shehnaaz was looking so stunning in that yellow dress. All of a sudden a weird possessiveness rushed through his veins thinking that other guys at the prom would also see her beauty. He wished if he could be the only one to admire his Naazo's beauty and nobody else.

Sidharth then closed the door of room and adjusted the lights and music. The environment became so romantic. Sidharth slowly walked towards Shehnaaz while she was still lost in him.

He went on his knees and asked forwarding his hand, "May I have the pleasure to dance with my princess?"

Shehnaaz remembered the note where he addressed her as 'My Princess'. But this time when he called her that, her heart skipped a beat. It was sounding too good in his voice.

She blushed looking down and kept her hand on his. Sidharth smiled and kissed her hand making her more shy and then he stood up.

The music played and he pulled her closer while their eyes met.

"Prom night mein aise dance karte hai." Whispered Sidharth and their bodies started moving in rhythm.

Tumko Paya Hai To Jaise Khoya Hoon

Kehna Chahoon Bhi To Tumse Kya Kahon

As the song played, Shehnaaz felt Sidharth's intense gaze on her. It seemed that he was expressing his own feelings through the lyrics.

Tumko Paya Hai To Jaise Khoya Hoon

Kehna Chahoon Bhi To Tumse Kya Kahon

Sidharth held Shehnaaz's waist tightly while her hand was on his shoulder. Their bodies were too close and moving perfectly.

Kisi Zabaon Mein Bhi Woh Labaz Hi Nahi

Ki Jin Mein Tum Ho Kya Tumhein Mein Bata Sakun

Sidharth twirled Shehnaaz around and again pulled her while her back touched his chest. They looked deep into each other's eyes while Sidharth kept admiring her beauty through the dance and song.

Main Aagar Kahoon Tumsa Haseen

Kaynaat Mein Nahi Hai Kahin

Tareef Yeh Bhi To Sach Hai Kuch Bhi Nahi

Tumko Paya Hai To Jaise Khoya Hoon

Once again Shehnaaz felt thousands of butterflies dancing in her stomach. She never danced like this but as Sidharth guided her everything seemed so easy to her. She was moving with the flow. This environment was also very new to her. The dance room, their dresses and her man who was describing her beauty like nobody ever did. Shivangi was right, their story was no less than a fairy tale. And now she wanted to live in this fairy tale world, forever, with her Sidharth, her devil.

Sidharth started caressing her face with the back of his palm and she closed her eyes feeling his touch.

Shokhiyon Mein Dooobi Yeh Aadayein

Chehre Se Jhalki Hui Hain

His hand ran through her long hair exploring her every features which added more beauty to her.

Zulf Ki Ghani Ghani Ghatayein

Shaan Se Dhalki Hui Hain

He caressed her both arms and finally held her hands tightly.

Lehrata Aachal Hai Jaise Badal

Bhaahon Mein Bhari Hai Jaise Chandani

He kissed her hands again and she opened her eyes only to find him looking at her with full of love.

Roop Ki Chandani

Sidharth turned her around swiftly and his hot breath fell on her neck. Shehnaaz also started taking deep breaths because of this closeness.

Main Agar Kahoon Yeh Dilkashi

Hai Nahi Kahin Na Hogi Kabhi

Tareef Yeh Bhi To Sach Hai Kuch Bhi Nahi

Sidharth brushed his lips against her skin while Shehnaaz bit her own lips with closed eyes. They became lost in the moment.

Tumko Paya Hai To Jaise Khoya Hoon..

Suddenly Sidharth left her and Shehnaaz turned to him. They both realised what was happening.

Sidharth slowly started moving backwards thinking that he might have made Shehnaaz uncomfortable. Meanwhile she understood what was going inside him. But she wanted to express that she was loving the moment equally.

Sidharth was about to leave when Shehnaaz ran towards him and hugged him from behind.

Tum Hue Meherbaan

To Hai Yeh Dastan

A beautiful smile formed on Sidharth's face when he felt her touch. He turned behind and found her looking at him with totally different emotions.

Hoo Tum Hue Meherbaan

To Hai Yeh Dastan

Shehnaaz moved closer and caressed Sidharth's face lovingly. She could feel that she was falling for him and there was no way to go back.

Abb Tumhara Mera Ek Hai Karwaan

Tum Jahan Mein Wahan

Sidharth then picked Shehnaaz up in a bridal style and kept moving while their eyes were fixed at each other.

Main Agar Kahoon

Humsafar Meri

Apsara Ho Tum Ya Koi Pari

Tareef Yeh Bhi To Sach Hai Kuch Bhi Nahi

Tumko Paya Hai To Jaise Khoya Hoon..

Kehna Chahoon Bhi To Tumse Kya Kahon

Kisi Zabaon Mein Bhi Woh Labaz Hi Nahi

Ki Jin Mein Tum Ho Kya Tumhein Mein Bata Sakun

Then he kept her down and bent her. After that the they stood in a slow and this time their heart was beating in the same rhythm.

Main Aagar Kahoon Tumsa Haseen

Kaynaat Mein Nahi Hai Kahin

Tareef Yeh Bhi To Sach Hai Kuch Bhi Nahi

Tumko Paya Hai To Jaise Khoya Hoon...

Shehnaaz locked her arms around Sidharth's neck and their bodies moved with the music. They didn't realise when the music stopped and kept standing in that position without moving away.

"Shehnaaz...." He whispered softly and she hummed.

"Tune pucha tha na prom night pe ladka ladki aur kya karte hai?"

"Kya karte hai?" She asked looking at him.

"You really want to know?" He asked tucking her hair behind her ear.

Shehnaaz nodded in yes.

"So can I?" He asked again.

"Can you what?" She asked as she wanted to hear it from his mouth.

"Can I kiss you?"

Shehnaaz's body shivered hearing that in his husky voice.

"Tum kuch karne se pehle puchte bhi ho?" She asked shyly.

"Tune hi kaha tha. Consent zaroori hai." He said smirking.

"Dekh ke paata nahi chalta ladki ka consent hai yaa nahi?"

"Matlab?"

"You can."

"I can what?" He asked intentionally as this time he wanted to hear it from her mouth.

Shehnaaz got irritated and said, "Tumhe toh kuch bhi samajh nahi aata. Main jaa rahi hoon."

Shehnaaz was about to leave but Sidharth's hold on her waist became more tight and their chests again collided to which Shehnaaz gasped.

Without wasting a moment, Sidharth brought his face closer to hers. Their eyes became closed and lips met for a gentle kiss.
