Meanwhile, in Erica's house... 

"Eri" he called Erica. 

"Yes, Partho.." Erica replied and wrapped her hands around his neck. 

"Are we twinning?" he asked with a smirk and held her waist by wrapping around both the arms.

"Coincidentally, we chose each other." she blushed but later became sad.

"What happened Elita?" he asked concerned. 

"We have posted that we're committed but still not revealed that we are with each other. Tell me, how will our fans react to it?" she was teary-eyed. Parth wiped her tears. 

"Even if everyone comes on our opposite side, still, there would two people by our side- us. We would never let Parica fall. And, this won't happen, actually. Do you know how much our Paricans love us? In the live chat, Deepak sir also went mad at the love they showered to us. What did our Paricans post?" Parth comforted her. She laughed a bit.

"They were like 'Please bring Erica and Parth together on live show' even after it was announced that we would be live together." she chirped and they both embraced each other.

Erica was feeling light-hearted. Parth held her in bridal style and sat on the couch. He made her sit on his lap, and she was facing him. She blushed due to his intense gaze. He embraced her while she reciprocated it. They both slept in each other's arms. 

After a few minutes, Jermaine entered the room. Both the families knew about their relationship. He noticed that the temperature was low due to the air conditioner. He looked at them and went aww. He wrapped a blanket around them and went away. 

In the morning, Parth woke up due to a notification on his phone. He looked at his Erica and admired her when another notify broke his trance. He wanted to throw the phone, but the message on it made him smile wide. He immediately made Erica wake up and smiled widely. 

"I have got a notification for a new music video. I am so happy." he chirped while Erica plastered a fake smile. She still remembered that she was jealous due to the closeness between him and Khushali and that made her realize his love. While the ignorance she gave to him due to jealousy and her confused feelings made him realize his love for her.

"I understand what you're thinking. But, the proposal is with you only. They want us to pair up." Erica's face lit up, and she embraced Parth with tears. Parth knew that her insecurities were a big deal, but he was all ready to make them a part of their beautiful love.

They met the producer and talked a bit about this with even singers. Stebin Ben, Arijit Singh, and Dhvani Bhanushali were the singers while Tanishk Bagchi was the composer of the lyrics

They got to know about the plot, and it was quite different and meaningful. After a few talks, they decided on a small rehearsal for the acting part.

✿✪❁✿✪❁✿✪❁✿✪❁

Parth Samthaan was the playboy type of boy of the college and of course the apple of everyone's eye, but, was a studious guy also. 

Erica Fernandes was a girl who had Haphephobia (the phobia of being touched). She was an ambitious girl and wanted to do something in life. She had this phobia as she eye-witnessed molestation when she was a small girl. 

She was a new admission in Parth's college. Everyone considered her a nerd by seeing her specs and style of clothing. She was already late while joining the campus, and some students suggested she study with Parth as he was the topper. Backside, they wanted to bully her. 

"So, you want my help, Ms. Fernandes?" Parth asked with a smirk. 

"Yes, i- if y-you don't want th-then, i-it's fine." she was stuttering and was scared. He melted at the innocence of a girl for the first time. He shrugged off the thought and sat beside her. Although, he wanted to bully her, seeing her as a nerd. He tried to hold her hand but, she moved away in fear. For the whole week, Parth was bullying her, but she stood by him just for her ambitions. He was having mixed feelings for her. 

The next day, Erica attended the college with a whole new style. She was looking as a true fashionista. Other side, Erica's friend, who was on a leave confronted Parth, and he was guilty. 

They were sitting in the class on the same bench and the professor threw a chalk on Erica as she was not paying attention, the reason was genuine, actually. Parth held it in between and glared at the professor. He, then, explained about Erica's condition personally to the professor. 

He became her shield but didn't touch her ever. One day, he proposed Erica. 

"Will you accept my love and marry me?" he asked on knees. 

"I- I can't. I have this phobia. However, I also like you. You have been my savior sporadically But, I can't. You would never be happy by this bond." she replied with tears. 

"I would be. Just your presence is enough. I just need your mental and soulful companionship. I don't need physical love. Try to trust me." he replied and asked her to keep her palm in his. She was happy and kept it smiling. It was with him only that Erica was open. 

After 3 years of marriage, 

"I just need your hand in my hand. Nothing else." he said. Erica was still grateful. She was still not up from the phobia.  

Gradually, Parth became sad when he saw other couples embracing each other and enjoying each other's presence. But, he never opened up about this. 

"Parth, please don't be with me. Do one thing. Have an extra- marital affair, I won't complain." he wanted to slap her at this comment. But, at a distance, completed denied. 

Erica was working harder and harder. Gradually, for their love, she overcame her phobia. She started to hold his hand very often. She even accepted his embraces. She started sleeping beside him. But, still, she was not happy. Parth had always co-operated, and she wanted to work more for their love and happiness. 

One day, she arranged a surprise dinner date at home. 

He was surprised and wanted to embrace her but, feared that it would affect her. 

Erica noticed it and herself embraced him. It was affecting her mental health, but at the same time, her heart was at peace, and she was enhancing. 

After, the dinner, Parth and Erica prepared to sleep when Erica held his hand and made him face her. He was confused. She moved closer to him by overcoming her fear and kissed on his cheek. Parth was shocked and happy. 

"Erica?" he asked. 

"You have also been a savior for me. Now, I would overcome my phobia. You need to help me. We would live as a normal couple." he was really happy. He nodded and Erica again embraced him. 

'With patience, his love grew stronger. Physical closeness doesn't matter. The only thing that can bring love is soulful and mental understanding, which Parth and Erica showed both in real life and in the plot of Music Video.'

So, this was the last One Shot of this book. 

Frankly speaking, I liked this book of mine the most because of the support you provided. It has reached 1k comments. 

I don't know, but, Khushali and Parth's closeness was irking me. That's why, I showed it here. I am sorry if their fans are there and are hurt.
