*******"**"*

I groaned when the sunlight hit my face.
I wanted to sleep.... Sleep is love.... Who wants to go to college...

COLLEGE!!

I was up in an instant. I checked the time and sure enough, I had a very less amount of time.

I finished getting ready in record time, and went out to see why Tara had not woken me up till now.

As I went out, I saw Tara humming to herself while making paranthas, still in her pajamas. I almost screamed at her. We were running late, and she had not even changed yet!?

"Are you crazy?" I began. "It's our first day of college, and you are not bothered at all? Its late! We need to go now to reach on time! The metro too would have started becoming crowded now! And look at you, maharani! Not even ready yet! Do you have even a bit of sens-"

"Chillax babe, Ansh is gonna pick us up. You sit, and eat paranthas, I'll go change and come".

I groaned loudly. "Do you even know how much hardwork I did? I got ready in 10 minutes. I've never done that before!"

Tara just laughed. That's all she does, I swear!

After around twenty minutes, Ansh was here.

"Hi girls!" He called out from his car. "Are you ready?"

"Yep" Tara said. We got into the car, and he began to drive out of the driveway.

"You guys excited?" He asked.

"Duh!" Tara rolled her eyes.

I just kept quiet. It was actually very entertaining to see these two ridiculing each other.

Ansh then began to make small talks, asking the most obvious questions, and we began to answer in the most sarcastic way.

After a fourty minute drive thanks to the traffic, we reached college.

I was so nervous, you could see me shaking. Ansh put one of his arm around my shoulder and the other one around Tara's waist, and that gained so much attention.

People were staring, especially at Tara, since she was so beautiful.

I had no idea what to do, so I just blindly followed Ansh. He asked us to go to a counter sort of place, where we had to take care of some formalities, and were given our time tables.

"Maths is my first period" Tara stated. "Stupid people, ruining my day like this!" She mumbled under her breath.

"I have English". I loved my language classes.

"Lucky bitch! Hey look, Ansh is over there. Let's go". She dragged me to where Ansh was standing. He was facing us, and was talking to some people. They were laughing and making jokes.

When we reached, Tara smiled at everyone, "Hey guys!"
She knew them already.

They waved and 'heyed' back.

"Who is she?" A guy asked, pointing at me.

"My roommate" Tara answered.

"Oh! Hi!"

"Hello!"

"Namaskara!"

"Hey!"

I was met with many different types of greetings. I smiled nervously at them.

Ansh then began the introduction, and I was thankful that I didn't have to do it myself. I SUCKED at introducing myself and making a good first impression.

"Guys, this is Akriti Shetty, she is Tara's roommate, here to do her b.arch, and Akriti, this is Varun, second year b.com, Sunidhi, third year medical science, Akshara, third year medical science, Sachin,  fourth year mechanical engineering, Yash, third year b.com, me, Ansh, third year software engineering and.... Hey! Where's Sahil?"

They all waved at me as they were being introduced, and I smiled at them too. They were all good looking people, and it did not require a genius to know that they were among the popular ones.

There was only one person missing, and that was Sahil. His name sounded so good.

Sahil.

I wanted to keep saying that name.

Then I smiled mockingly at my own self for sounding this stupid.

"Are you okay, or do you find the floor so beautiful that you are smiling charmingly at it!" I turned to face Sachin. He was laughing at me, and so were the others.

I turned red, and hit his arm before blushing again.

This made them laugh more. And me being me, I too started laughing with them.

The ringing of a bell made us stop our laughing session, and everyone started to say their goodbyes before moving to their buildings.

I smiled at Yash, who told me that his class was in the same block as mine, and would give me company me till there.

We talked about random things, and he smiled a goodbye before walking to his floor, after dropping me at my classroom's door.

The first lecture was quite interesting. I was more of a language person, and by the end of the period, I was sure that I was in the good books of my English teacher, Mrs. Swathi.

I headed to my next class which was history of architecture, and I loved my new teacher. He was a middle aged guy, and was very funny. He made sure that we were clear with the topic before moving on to the next.

Classes went on, and before I knew it, it was time for lunch.

I spotted Yash outside my building.

"Hey!" I approached him with a smile.

"Hi! How was your day?" He asked.

"Awesome! Yours?" I asked .

"It was good". He smiled.

"Come on, let's go, I am hungry!" I sighed as I made my way towards the canteen.

Yash lazily threw his arm over my shoulder and began to walk with me.

As I neared the canteen, I spotted Ansh sitting on a bench, facing us. He was talking, and was very engrossed in whatever he was telling.

Sunidhi and Akshara were listening to him intently.

Tara was on her phone.

Sachin and Varun were discussing something on their own.

But there someone else there too.

His back was turned towards us, and he too was listening to what Ansh was saying. He was sitting on the table, with one leg on a bench, his elbow rested on that knee. He was wearing a black hoodie, with its hoodie covering his hair.

I neared the table even more, and I could now hear what Ansh was saying. But I wasn't listening.

I wanted see his face.

Tara spotted me and grinned, and patted towards the empty spot towards her right. Right in front of him.

My heart thundered in my chest.

Was this normal?

I hadn't seen his face, I hadn't heard his voice, I didn't know anything about him.

But the need to know was to much.

I made my way towards Tara, placed my bag on the table and sat down without looking at him. But after sitting, I slowly raised my eyes towards him.

A godly face is what I saw. All his features were perfect. As if, god himself had taken time to carve it to perfection.

His eyes were trained on Ansh. They were a beautiful steel grey colour. A very rare colour in this subcontinent.

I let out a sigh unknowingly, as I shamelessly continued to stare at him.

But I almost jumped when Tara shook my shoulders. I turned and glared at her, while she just smirked at me, wiggling her eyebrows, and pointing towards the grey-eyed hottie.

I blushed.

But before I could say anything, I heard a voice.

A voice so deep, it sent shivers down my spine.

"And whom do we have here?" The voice asked.

My heart started to beat so fast, I thought it would jump right out of my chest.

I slowly, courageously, turned my head, and looked into grey eyes that were already trained on me.

I forgot everything around me, and drowned in the depth of his eyes.

And the worst part was, I wanted to drown.
