They reached Oberoi Mansion and left for their respective rooms.! Manav went with Aditya as he had to discuss something related to the party and his projects.!
Shanaya reached her room closed the door and changed into her regular clothes.
At the same time she received a text from Aarush(her informer) following is the what the text read:

Shanaya called Manav.... (Following will be their phone call conversation)

Shanaya: Are you with Aditya? Just say yes or no!

Manav: Yes!

Shanaya: Is he near you?

Manav: Yes!

Shanaya: Excuse yourself now and go to place where he cannot hear you.! NOW!!

Manav: Hello....! Hellooooo..! I can't hear you.!!! Damn this network..!

Adi I have to attend this call.. This network is giving me issues again.! Will be back.!

(Aditya just nodded on this as he was busy checking his coming schedule for his projects and how many days he will be having just for himself in his so called vacation. Meanwhile Manav left his room and went to his own room which was downstairs.! He went inside and locked his room and started to talk with Shanaya..)

Manav: Yes..!

Shanaya: Party is at 9 pm right.?

Manav: Yes! Why.!?

Shanaya: Look he will be attacked over there.! Not by just one person but possibly 13! Also possibly the 2nd head of this group will be there.!

Manav: Shit.! Should we cancel it then.?

Shanaya: Are you out of your mind???? We have to be there.! This is our golden Chance to get the 2nd head of this group.! We will be so close to get the main leader of this whole master plan.!

Manav: You are saying that I should let him go to his own death.????

Shanaya: He will be fine.! He has a girlfriend now.!!! Remember????

Manav: Oh.! How can I forget that..!!( he said sarcastically)

Shanaya: Oh! Shut up.! It was yours and Priya's idea.! Don't forget that.!

Manav: So you are saying that what ever you did over there was all an ACT.!!!

Shanaya: Of coarse.!!!

Manav: Sure.! I believe you.! (Note the sarcasm.!)

Shanaya: Aa...a..Anyways..! Just keep an eye for Robin.! Keep Aditya away from it.! Also make sure he has to dance with me.! If he doesn't the plan won't work.!

Manav: You stuttered.!!!!

Shanaya: What..??? I told you so many things and all you remember is that I stuttered.??? When did I..? You are imagining things bro.! Anyways tell me.! Did you get it??

Manav: Ya ya... change the subject.! Will talk about this in coming future.! But ya. I got it. But Robin.???? What's that.?

Shanaya: Keep your eyes open.! You will see.! Also make sure he wears the vest that I have kept in your room.!

Manav: You did.??? When.!!??

Shanaya: Don't worry about it.! There's that bag of Armani.! Make sure he wears that.!

Manav: Got it.! I am looking into the bag.! Wait it has 2????

Shanaya: One is for you sweetheart.! Make sure to wear it.!!!!

Manav: Ohho.!! So much care.!!!! In love already???

Shanaya: Seriously..!!! Not...( Cut off by Manav)

Manav: I know I know..... Not even in your dreams.!!! (He said mocking like Shanaya. To that she just chuckled and disconnected the call! He too left his room and went to Aditya's room. He was still on his phone looking at it and smiling as he remembered what he and Shanaya just talked and how she stuttered, but he forgot that he was already in Aditya's room and Aditya was looking at him suspiciously.!)

Aditya: Why are you smiling like a maniac?

Manav: Oh.! Nothing.. just had a talk with Shanaya.! Dude she is so funny and ..... cute.!

(He suddenly looked up from his phone when he realized what he just said with the flow and looked at Aditya who was standing with folding his arms to his chest and raised an eyebrow and visibly irritated/angry)

Aditya: What did you just say??? Funny and CUTE..??? Shanaya..?????

Manav: Um... Um..... Chill bro.! We are just friends.! You know that.!! Anyways you looked over your schedule.? Chalo.! Get ready it's almost time that we should leave for the party.! And wait wear this vest.! The one you plan on wearing has a stain on it.! I just checked today so arranged this one.!

Aditya: Manav....... I will get ready..... Answer my question.! How you and Shan got so close that she calls you and you guys talk to each other in a way that you think she is funny and cute..!!! Cute??? Seriously.??? Am I supposed to know something.?? What's going on???

Manav: Wowowo..!!! Chill bro.! I came to know her better in Last few days so came to know that I was hating her for no reason.! She is different and has her own ways to express.!!

Aditya: You know this is not helping.!!!!

Manav: Oh God.! Someone is getting Jealous here.!!!

Aditya: I. AM. NOT...!!!

Manav: Really??? But was I talking about you.??? (He asked with a smirk )

Aditya: Shut up.! Give me that vest.! I need to get ready now..! Get the hell out of my room now..!!

Manav: Ohho..... okay okay okay..... You are way too possessive bro.! See you at 8:30 pm.! Don't take this role play thing tooooo seriously.!!!!

(He said in a teasing manner and left to which Aditya just rolled his eyes and started to get ready! He was thinking while getting ready about why he reacted the way he did with Manav.!!! All got ready Shanaya was wearing a gown with hidden guns with silencers as she knew these babies will be her partner today and had handcuffs as well! She took a last look into the mirror.! Yup no one can say she has two guns.! )

Below is Shanaya's look for tonight:

(She was waiting downstairs while checking on the security placement at Aditya's Director friend's house.! She has already informed the head of the security about the situation that will take place making sure with him that the word doesn't go out as the attackers might gets a heads up.! As per who was talking to the head of secretary!!! Well it was a informer from her agency as the caller ID was from her agency. Here one thing to keep in mind is that the world don't know the real faces of the agents.! As they always go undercover.!
She was done talking on the phone while she saw both Aditya and Manav coming from upstairs. After getting ready Manav went to Aditya's room to just check on him so they both are coming from upstairs. She saw them coming and went towards them! To Aditya's surprise she went directly to Manav instead of him and hugged Manav saying...)

Aditya's look for tonight:

Manav's look for tonight:

Shanaya: There you are..... I have been waiting forever......

(She hugged him and whisperely asked him...)

Shanaya: All set.? You guys wearing your vests.?

Manav: Yes!

(She broke the hug and said...)

Shanaya: Great.! You look good!

(Then she looked at Aditya and said)

Shanaya: Let's go Mr. Actor.!

Aditya: Adi..... it's Adi for you... Remember.???? (Note the sarcasm)

Shanaya: Ya ya... But outside this house in front of others.! Manav knows we are acting.! So why filter.!? Anyways just keep your eyes open.!

(With this banter going on they left for the party. It was at his director friend's house so lots of media and almost whole industry would be there... meanwhile in the car..!)

Shanaya: Okay Mr. Actor.... No script nothing... just go with the flow....

Aditya: What??? Okay okay.! I think I will handle it.!!

Shanaya: We.... the moment we step out of this car...... It will be... We... Us.... Together..! Get it Mr. Actor.?

Aditya: Stop it with your weird nickname..! It's Adi.....

Shanaya: Ya ya... I know... Btw.... I have called a backup..! We will meet her directly at the party..

Manav: Her?? I was not informed.!

Shanaya: I planned it after we had a talk...

Aditya: There is a lot going on here and I don't know a single thing... Wow.! (He said turning his face away to the other side.!)

(Manav just rolled his eyes and face palmed at Aditya's childish tantrum.... Shanaya whispered to Manav which Aditya heard..)

Shanaya: What's wrong with him?

Aditya: Nothing. Is. Wrong. With. Me..!!

(Shanaya just shrugged off and they reached the destination. First Manav came out from the car followed by Aditya and cameras started flashing... They could hear journalists asking: "Sir one picture please.! Sir where is your girlfriend? Is she attending this party with you.? Where is Shanaya ma'am..?"
Aditya just went towards Shanaya's door and opened the door... Shanaya stepped out of the car by holding Aditya's hand and stood in a way that she was about to fall and she completely leaned towards Aditya and took his support while he hold her by her waist and other hand in hand and her other hand is grabbing his coat's collar.! They shared a cute eye lock and the media got their pictures together in beautiful pose..! They stood properly and again gave the media few poses and then went inside.
As soon as they stepped in Adi took Shanaya to his friend whose birthday party they are attending.... He just kept on noticing one thing that Shanaya is just busy in looking at the whole place very keenly..! He thought may be because she never attended such kind of parties but little did he know that she was actually scanning the whole place for ROBIN.!
Shanaya and Aditya went to his friend and Aditya started the conversation...)

Aditya: Mayank my man..! Many Many Happy returns of the day.!!! (He said hugging Mayank)

Mayank: Thank you.. Thank you.... Look who is here.... Talk of the Town..! Bro..! It's my birthday by you guys are taking all the attention today.!! And honestly I don't think I can complain.!!! I mean look at you two.! My goodness.! You kept our beautiful "Bhabhi" hidden from us since 2 years..!!!!!!! Well .... looking at her..! I can understand now.!   Why you kept this a huge secret.!!!

(Aditya just pulled Shanaya close to him by wrapping his hand around her waist.... this was normal now but due to all the attention they are getting Shanaya was kind of feeling different and due to the bit revealing gown she is wearing his touch just took her off guard and she in reflex kept her hand on his chest and both looked at each other at the same time..! Aditya said to Mayank while still looking at Shanaya..)

Aditya: What can I say.... She is way too precious to me.!

(Hearing this even though Shanaya knew he is acting an unknown blush came on her cheeks... Realizing this she just started to look here and there and tried to pull away from him, Adi just pulled her more closer and whispered in her ear with a smirk....)

Aditya: Didn't knew I had this effect on you.!!!

(Shanaya knew he would say something like that.. And she knew that he was right.... but denying all the confusion going on in her head she just replied to him in rather flirty tone while tracing his perfect jawline with one of her fingers.....)

Shanaya: Just wait for my turn sweetheart......

(And she pulled away a bit but made sure to not loose the eye contact..... this time Aditya was caught off guard and his eyes widened at her words and gestures..! To which she just chuckled and winked at him..! They both were brought back to reality when Manav snapped his fingers in front of them....)

Manav: Earth to you two.!! Geez we are in a party..! Get some room.!!

Mayank: What yaar Manav..!  They were having suchha cute moment.! When do we see Aditya so much in love with someone like this off camera.!!!
Anyways let's cut the cake and will have a dance then.!

(Mayank cut his cake and there was a photo session, Shanaya came to know that this is the exact place where the dance will take place as it is the center of the hall. She was scanning whole hall while Aditya was busy talking to his fellow colleagues.! At the same time something caught an eye of Shanaya.... looking at it properly just one word came out of her mouth as a whisper.....)

Shanaya: ROBIN.!!!

(She examined that person properly and was sure that he was one of the guys who are here to attack Aditya. He was having ROBIN pin attached to his color collar. He was on the floor so except him there should be more 4 on the floor..... she took out a small red tape cut piece from her clutch and excused herself from the group and started to walk towards that guy. As the dance was yet not started she can't take any actions but she just went towards him and bumped into him she handled herself and the guy helped her as well and in that process she stuck that red tape on his shoulder..... ONE DOWN FOUR MORE TO GO ON THE FLOOR she thought to herself! The same way she found the rest 4 by looking at the ROBIN on their suit collar corner! She either would make someone stumble near that guy and in order to stabilize the person she stuck the red tape or she would take a waiter's help to do the same saying they are playing a secret game.! The last one she did as if acting to fix her sandals and getting that guy's support and in return stuck that tape.!
She then returned to the group. She could feel daggers of Aditya and Manav had a questioned look.!)

Aditya: You had a nice stroll...!!(Note the sarcasm)

Shanaya: What's with the sarcasm.!!! I was doing something.!

Aditya: You we're doing a LOT.!!!!

(Shanaya just ignored him and looked at Manav asking her to check his messages. She has texted him and the security head to keep an eye at the red tape on the dance floor.... She then went to Manav and whispered it to him..)

Shanaya: Do not let the guys with red tape on their collar corner come close to Aditya!

Manav: Just 5 right ! (He said by looking at the five guys on the floor)

Shanaya: Just on the floor rest are up there.! (She said pointing to upstairs stands.!)

(Meanwhile Aditya was looking at these two having their own conversation and was having weird feeling.! He was about to say something when Mayank announced that the dance floor is waiting for couples to grace it with their dance.! Shanaya as per her plan was expecting Aditya to ask her for dance.! She saw many celebrities going on to the dance floor with their partners.! Very few were left and she could see the movement in the guys with ROBIN on the floor.! To her rescue Mayank came and asked Aditya...)

Mayank: Don't you wanna dance today??

Manav: You know he doesn't dance at the parties.!!

(Shanaya was beyond shocked.! How come she didn't know.! How can she miss this detail and above all how will she execute her plan.!!!)

Shanaya: What????

(Then it hit her.... She has been planning all this for a while.... Now is to test it..!!! She just looked at Manav and gestured him to ask her for dance..! He just nodded and smirked as he exactly knew what Shanaya is doing... He went towards Shanaya and deliberately from the front of Aditya so he knows where he is going and as expected his eyes followed where Manav was going and grew wide when he saw Manav standing in front of Shanaya..!)

Manav: So My Lady...!!! May I get an honor of having this wonderful dance with you???

(He asked while bowing his head and forwarding a hand towards Shanaya.! She made a surprising face and smiled while blushing while both were trying to suppress their laughter...!)

Shanaya: Of coarse.....

(She was about to place her hand in Manav's hand but at the same time Aditya just blurted out loud...)

Aditya: NOT.!!!

(Mayank, Shanaya and Manav all of them looked towards him shockingly)

Manav: What not Aditya.?? I am sorry I didn't get it.!(He said acting innocent)

Aditya: I said I am here .! So I will be the one dancing with MY GIRLFRIEND.! Right Shan..!

(He said looking at Shanaya and pulling her closer to him by her waist..! Aditya then moved in front of Shanaya and got down on one knee, forwarded one hand towards and asked...)

Aditya: Shan.... this dance floor is waiting for me and my girlfriend to grace it with our presence.! Would you like to join me my love.!!!

(Hearing his last words everyone's eyes got wider... even Shanaya's.! She just regained her composure right away and placed her hand on his hand and said...)

Shanaya: Would love to....

(He took her to the dance floor and pulled her closer and started to dance ... Media was busy clicking pictures and getting video footage.... Shanaya looked over to Manav and gestured him to check his message.... Aditya was observing this ... Manav looked at his message which read:)

Start to take the people out in small groups.!
Back up is here..
Priya is here with other agents..
Dressed up to blend in..
They will be with us on the dance floor..
Without being noticed get them all out...
10 minutes!!

(He looked up with questionable face.. and mouthed.. "10 minutes???" Shanaya just raised an eyebrow and showed him the clock telling him his time has started... Manav started to get to the groups and telling them to go to a separate place as They(Aditya and the other director) wants to discuss something that cannot be leaked!! While Manav was doing his work Shanaya was looking over there to make sure non of them was left behind but she forgot that Aditya was kinda getting frustrated .,,.. He just pulled her more closer to him which left minimal space between them and Shanaya turned to face him and noticed that they are way too close..! In this many days for the first time she saw his eyes this close.! "He has beautiful eyes " she thought.! She tried to pull away looking at the proximity but Aditya didn't let her move.!)

Shanaya: What are doing..? Just keep on dancing...

Aditya: What am I doing??? What am I doing..?? What are you doing???? All you are doing is looking at Manav and other guys and talking to Manav.!!!

Shanaya: What??

Aditya: Don't "What" me.!!! You know what I am talking about..! By the time we were going to come here... all I am looking at is you and Manav being all chit-chatting all the time..!
You complimented him but you didn't even care to tell me at least how am I looking?? After we came here... then too you were busy talking to him.. sometimes with words or sometimes with gestures.! What do you think.!? Am I blind??

Shanaya: What are you saying??? Are you even listening to what you are saying? Just leave me Aditya we are way too close.!!

Aditya: Adi..... it's Adi for you..!!! Don't forget I AM YOUR BOYFRIEND.!!!!

Shanaya: Acting...!! You are ACTING as my BOYFRIEND.!!! What's up with you man.!! What is wrong with you???

(It suddenly strikes Aditya what was he doing.? He loosened his grip on Shanaya and looked down thinking about what was he doing and more importantly "WHY WAS HE BEHAVING LIKE THAT?" He thought Shanaya is right... "What the hell is wrong with him..???" Meanwhile Shanaya saw that most of the people were out and only agents were on the floor with the guys with ROBIN in the place... There were 4 agents including Priya dancing with other agents as their partner.! She gestured them to take care of the guys in upstairs stands. She had texted them so they knew there were 8 guys upstairs.! They started to make their way towards them.... Now it was up to Shanaya to take the 5 guys down on the floor.! But for that she needs Aditya's cooperation... She almost hugged him which startled him and she whispered in his ear...)

Shanaya: We need to take down 5 people on the floor. THE GAME IS ON..!!!

Aditya: Geez woman..! At least warn me before you do something like this..! And wait.... What am I supposed to do..?

Shanaya: Dance.! Let's see if you can do Salsa!

Aditya: Salsa..???

Shanaya: Yes! Just do as I say.! I am sure it will boost up your confidence too.! Start the dance... Also I have slid a gun in your pocket too..! If necessary arises..! Use it.!

(She pulled away from him and pulled out the gun... Aditya's eyes widened to which she just winked and they started their dance... she could see the guys are moving closer to them.... one guy in particular was about to pull out his gun out... Shanaya yelled)

Shanaya: Your signature step...

(Aditya twisted her and made her lean on one of his hands at the same time she pressed the trigger while aiming at the guy and he was down, looking at that the other guys on their left was about to shoot Aditya.. She again yelled..)

Shanaya: Twirl me to left....

(Aditya twirled her to the left and boom he was down too... she saw another guy approaching from behind Aditya...)

Shanaya: Put me down and twirl....

(Aditya put her down and twirled her while she was sitting and she shot the guy.... she could see the other two left ... one of the guy is walking as if guarding the guy that is in the back..... she got up and started to dance with him by continuously changing the positions..  she was doing so as by not maintaining one position will stop them to take a shot properly.! she was moving towards the other two guys... rest of the agents have already taken care of the guys in the upstairs stands.! They were pointing their guns towards those 2 guys... none of them were making a move as those two were trying to save the second head of the gang while agents have to capture the second head alive! They were few feet away when Shanaya went close to Aditya and asked him to shoot the guy in front on his knees..! As Aditya shooting the guy is least expected move.! Aditya pulled out the gun slowly and turned towards those two guys and shot the guy in front on his knees because of the pain he winced and sat down clutching his knees and Shanaya took this opportunity and ran towards the second head... but before that he shot towards Aditya and it hit him right on his chest... because of the force he fell back... Shanaya within next minute took his gun and hit his head to which he fell unconscious and shot the guy sitting clutching his knees in his head..! She then handcuffed the second head who was unconscious and gestured the agents to take the bodies and the head to the headquarters.! Start the interrogation process and keep her posted... They did as she said.....
She then moved towards Aditya who was still lying on the floor, Manav too who was watching this from outside rushed towards Aditya and asked..)

Manav: Aditya..... Adi.... wake up..! Shanaya..... I was in it because you said he will be fine..! You will not let anything happen to him..! Why is he not waking up???

(He literally yelled at her... She just moved towards him... pulled back the trigger of her gun.... sat on one knee next to him and pointed her gun at his forehead......)

Shanaya: Still wanna continue this drama of yours or some more smell of gun powder will help you wake up..!!

(Aditya can no longer hold back his laughter and started laughing, Manav was shocked and Shanaya just shook her head in disbelief for both Aditya and Manav... Aditya saw that Shanaya was still pointing gun towards him and was for the first time not paying attention... He took this opportunity and took a hold of her hand with gun stood up and twisted her hand behind her back and made her stand in a way that her back collided with his chest.. he was holding her free hand by his another hand along her neck..... He just whispered to her....)

Aditya: You know... even if you want... you won't be able to kill me... with a gun..!!

Shanaya: Hah.! Too much trust is not good Mr. Actor.! That too on your bodyguard who just started her job sometime ago.!

Aditya: What can I say.! My bodyguard is my hot, sexy and extremely beautiful girlfriend as well.! Can't help but trust her blindly and fall in love with her.!!!

(He just said that and left her.! Shanaya was too shocked to react anyway.! She just looked at him with a shocked expression and said..)

Shanaya: What .... what did you just say.?

(Aditya smirked and just acted innocently and asked..)

Aditya: Wow.!! For the first time I saw The Shanaya Shekhawat shocked.!!! What did I say..?

(Shanaya got it that he is playing with her so she also upped her game and walked towards him.... pulled him by his collar and whispered to him while tracing his face with her finger...)

Shanaya: Oh sweetheart don't worry..! I will remind you in my way later.....

(She winked at him with a smirk and pulled away from him as she knew she caught him off guard)

Manav: Geez you two.!! Get some room.! My poor innocent eyes.!!!

Shanaya: What innocent eyes..?? We haven't even done anything yet.!

Manav: YET.??? Well whatever you guys are doing is already more than enough!!!

Shanaya: Whatever..  let's just move towards Oberoi mansion.! I need to report this to the chief and discuss the upcoming events and plans for that......

Aditya: Yup let's go GIRLFRIEND..!!

(He said forwarding his hand... she took his hand and said..)

Shanaya: Let's go BOYFRIEND....!!

Manav: Then who am I. ???

Aditya: Third wheel.!!

( He said and both of them laughed except Manav)

Manav: I am hurt... you have changed Adi..!!

(With this banter they left the venue towards Oberoi mansion..... press was taken care of so none of the media person was there..)
