"I'm so going to fail Rhea" Shanaya said, walking to the assembly hall, "There's no way I'm going to Thailand, my lifes ruined".

"Okay Shanaya, let's not overreact here, your not going to fail and your definitely going to Thailand, if anything I should be worried not you".

"I see we are overreacting once again" Rohan said, putting his arm around Rhea and Shanaya.

"Thank God your here, your the only one who can handle this paranoid queen" Rhea said, making Shanaya frown.

"I'm not always paranoid".

"Yes you are Shanaya" Jeet said, coming up to the other three. 

"I'm being realistic" Shanaya argued. 

"Shanaya listen to me" Rohan said, turning Shanaya to face him, "Your the smartest person in our group, maybe even the whole school, if anyone is going to Thailand, its going to be you".

"I don't want to go without you guys".

"Then pray to your Ganpati Bappa for us" Rohan teased. 

"See I should have gone to the temple this morning, this is all your fault Rohan" Shanaya said, slapping Rohan's shoulder.

"How is this my fault?" Rohan said, rubbing his shoulder. 

"Your the one who wanted to sleep in" Shanaya complained.

"You could of gone without him Shanaya" Jeet said.

"No!" Shanaya and Rohan yelled simultaneously, confusing Jeet and making Rhea roll her eyes.

"Don't question it" Rhea told a confused Jeet, "Now lets go and get out seats before the hall gets full".

The four friends went to the front of the hall and sat down in the first row, first was Jeet, then Rhea, followed by Rohan and Shanaya. 

"Is these two seat taken?" Abhi asked, coming to the front row with Rajat.

"Nope, all yours" Shanaya said smiling. 

"Thank you" Abhi said, sitting down with Rajat.

"So you excited?".

"I'm shitting my pants here Abhi" Shanaya replied, making Abhi laugh.

"You need to chill Singhania, whats the worst that can happen?" Rohan said.

"My life can get ruined".

"And the drama queen's drama has begun, may the odds be in our favour" Rohan said, making Shanaya slap his shoulder.

"Stop being so damn violent women" Rohan complained. 

"Stop teasing me then".

"Your being an ass Nanda" Abhi interrupted, "She's nervous and your not helping her".

"Who asked you to talk again?" Rohan asked, glaring at Abhi.

"Alright rivals come down" Rhea interrupted, knowing once Abhi and Rohan start they won't stop, "The assembly is starting".

"Students of St Teresa, welcome to this assembly, the assembly that will decide which sixteen people in here would be going to Thailand, I know you guys have other things to do, so I will get straight to it, if your name is called out please stand up" Dean said, "On 16th place we have Tanya Israni".

Tanya stood up blowing kisses to everyone around her.

"On 13th place we have Jeet Khurana".

Jeet opened his mouth in shock, he couldn't believe his ears. Rhea stood up screaming, "You did it Jeet!". Rhea's scream bought Jeet out of his trance, "I made it, holy shit I made it Rhea!", Jeet shouted hugging Rhea. "I'm so happy for you" Rhea said, smiling. "Congrats bro" Rohan said, doing a handshake with Jeet. "Thailand Jeet is coming for you!" Shanaya yelled, hugging him. "Hell yeah I am!".

"On 10th place we have Rhea Dialdas".

"Yes!" Rhea screamed, jumping up from her seat. Rajat got up from his seat and ran up to Rhea and hugged her, "Congrats Rhea". Rhea smiled and broke their hug and hugged Jeet, "We both are going to Thailand Khurana". "Yes we are Dialdas" Jeet said. "Yes my best friend is smart" Shanaya said, hugging Rhea. "Congrats Rhea" Rohan said, hugging her. "Thank you, thank you", Rhea said laughing. 

"On 8th place we have Rajat Mridul".

"Yes!!" Rhea screamed hugging Rajat, "We are going to Thailand together!". "Yes Rajat!" Shanaya yelled hugging him. "Congratulations bro" Abhi said, hugging Rajat. "I can't believe my hard work actually payed off" Rajat said in shock. 

"On 6th place we have Abhimanyu Singh".

"I knew it" Shanaya said, hugging Abhi, "You didn't need my help afterall". "I can't believe it I made it without your help" Abhi said. "You always underestimate yourself" Rajat said, patting Abhi's back. "Congrats Abhi" Rhea said simply, even though Shanaya and Abhi were working on their friendship, Rhea still wanted nothing to do with Abhi. "Thanks Rhea" Abhi said, giving Rhea a small smile. 

"On 4th place we have Rohan Nanda".

"Yes!!" Shanaya screamed jumping up and down, "You did it Rohan, you did it!" Shanaya said hugging Rohan, anyone could easily tell Shanaya was way more excited than Rohan himself. "We did Shanaya, we did it, this couldn't have been possible without you" Rohan said, hugging Shanaya tightly. "Yes my brother from another mother, you did it, you did something which has nothing to do with football, how does it feel?" Rhea teased, hugging Rohan. "I don't know if your congratulating me or insulting me" Rohan said laughing. "We are going to Thailand baby!" Jeet said hugging Rohan.

"On first place we have..." 

Shanaya nervously looked at Rohan, she was scared, what if she gets left behind when all her friends go to Thailand, Rohan squeezed her hand in reassurance and whispered, "Its going to be you, just believe in yourself nerd".

"Shanaya Singhania!".

"Wooo!!!" Abhi and Rohan yelled jumping up from their seats. Shanaya sat in her seat frozen. "Shanaya get up, your going to Thailand" Abhi said shaking Shanaya. "What?" Shanaya asked. "Your going to Thailand nerd, you did it" Rohan screamed. "What!" Shanaya yelled getting up. "You did it Shanaya" Abhi said, going to hug Shanaya, but Shanaya turned around and hugged Rohan instead. "Rohan I did it, I did it Rohan" Shanaya said excitedly. Rohan span Shanaya around, "I knew it Shanaya, I knew you were going to come first". "Thank you for believing in me" Shanaya said, still hugging Rohan. "You guys aren't going to break this hug, so I'm joining in, we did it guys!" Rhea said, joining Rohan and Shanaya's hug. "I'm coming in" Jeet said joining the hug, "We are all going to Thailand!!". 

While the four friends were in a group hug, they didn't notice the two fuming people on the side. Abhi was fuming because Shanaya hugged Rohan instead of him, she rejected him for Rohan, after seeing that Shanaya wasn't letting go of Rohan anytime soon Abhi left from there, no longer wanting to see Rohan and Shanaya together. 

On the other hand, Rajat was fuming, he knew Rhea and Jeet were friends, but he didn't know they were this close, for the first time in his life, Rajat feared he was losing Rhea to someone else. 

*****

"You forget to pack this Rhea" Rohan said, throwing a random shirt at Rhea's head.

"You are so annoying Nanda" Rhea said, throwing a pillow at Rohan's face, "Why are you even here?".

"I came here to help Shanaya pack" Rohan said, throwing the pillow back at Rhea.

"Well you helped her pack now leave and go pack yourself".

"Already packed love" Rohan said, loving Rhea's annoyed face. 

"Oh my God" Rhea said in frustration, finally zipping her bag up.

"If you don't want to be near me then go help Jeet, his struggling with his packing" Rohan said, lying on Shanaya's bed.

"Gladly".

Before leaving, Rhea knocked on the bathroom door, "Shanaya I'm going to go help Jeet pack, enjoy your shower, your annoying friend is lying on your bed, enjoy tolerating him".

"Okay!" Shanaya yelled from the bathroom.

"Ouch Rhea" Rohan said, putting his hand over his heart, "I thought we had something, but no you just like to play with my heart, don't you".

"Jeet I'm coming!" Rhea yelled, making Rohan laugh.

After Rhea left, Rohan lied down on Shanaya's bed and started browsing through his phone, that was until someone knocked on the door.

"Shanaya someones at the door!" Rohan yelled.

"I'm in the shower Rohan, get your lazy ass up and open the door!" Shanaya yelled, making Rohan groan.

"I was just starting to get comfortable!" Rohan yelled, making Shanaya laugh.

Rohan opened the door, and seeing the person on the other side, immediately made Rohan want to shut the door again.

"What are you doing here Abhi?".

"I'm here to meet Shanaya" Abhi said, shocked seeing Rohan in Shanaya's dorm, "But what are you doing here?".

"Hanging out with my friend" Rohan replied smirking, knowing him being here was pissing Abhi off, "Also Shanaya is in the shower, come again some other time, or never I don't really mind".

Rohan went to close the door, but Abhi held the door with his hand, preventing Rohan from closing it, "I told you to stay away from her Nanda".

"And I told you I wasn't going to Singh" Rohan said, "Plus Shanaya needed someone when the person she thought was her best friend hurt her beyond repair".

"Her best friend is now back and she no longer needs you, so you can leave her alone now".

"Its the opposite actually, Shanaya no longer needs you, and even you know that" Rohan said, smirking.

"You..." Before Abhi could continue, the bathroom door opened and Shanaya came out.

"Abhi what are you doing here?" Shanaya asked, confused seeing Abhi standing at her door.

"I came here to help you with your packing" Abhi said smiling at Shanaya. 

"Your too late, sucks really" Rohan said sarcastically. 

Abhi looked at Rohan in confusion, "What?".

"Rohan already helped me pack" Shanaya explained.

"Oh, right" Abhi said, glaring at Rohan.

"Yeap, now that we are done here, go on get going and help your best friend pack" Rohan said, trying to get Abhi to leave. 

"Rhea can help Rajat".

"Rhea's helping Jeet".

"Rhea's with Jeet?" Abhi asked, shocked.

"You heard me" Rohan said, "Now come on get going and for once in your life be a good friend".

Before Abhi could say anything else, Rohan slammed the door on his face.

"Rohan what the hell" Shanaya said, going to open the door, but getting stopped by Rohan.

"He came here to help you pack, but your already packed so his job is done, now let's go" Rohan said, grabbing Shanaya's hand and taking her to her bed.

"What are you doing?".

"Lets have a movie marathon" Rohan said, grabbing Shanaya's laptop.

"Rohan we need to get up pretty early tomorrow, we should go to sleep".

"One movie won't kill us Shanaya" Rohan said, grabbing Shanaya's blankets and putting it over both of them, "Plus we can always sleep in the plane".

"Fine" Shanaya said, "But we are watching the new Aladdin".

"Seriously, another Disney movie?" Rohan complained.   

"Its either that or nothing".

"Evil, I tell you, pure evil" Rohan said, putting Aladdin on. 

By the time the movie was half way done, both Shanaya and Rohan had managed to fall asleep, with Shanaya falling asleep on Rohan's chest, and Rohan's arm wrapped around her tightly.

After helping Jeet pack, Rhea came back to her dorm, only to see both her friends sleeping in each others warmth, Rhea smiled at them, "Seriously how oblivious can these two be" Rhea thought. 

Rhea closed Shanaya's laptop and put it on her desk, she then left the dorm to go stay at Rajat's dorm, leaving Rohan and Shanaya to themselves, but not before clicking a picture of the two sleeping.

*****

Ding Ding Ding, Ding Ding Ding.

It was 5am and the alarm on Rohan's phone just went off. Rohan shut the alarm and tired to get up, but couldn't because of a weight on his chest, opening his eyes Rohan saw Shanaya sleeping on him. 

Rohan stared at Shanaya's sleeping figure, she looked so beautiful, so peaceful. Rohan put a strand of Shanaya's hair behind her ear, and caressed her cheek.

"What the hell are you doing to me Shanaya" Rohan whispered, "The playboy of St Teresa, the heartless son of Ashok Nanda has now gone soft for a girl, thats a story no one will believe, but the question is why, why do I care so much for you, why do I hate Abhi being near you, why can't I tolerate you hurt, all these questions yet no answers".

Seeing the time, Rohan realised he had to wake Shanaya up now, as much as he didn't want to disturb her sleep, he knew he needed to wake her up, otherwise she will murder him.

"Shanaya" Rohan said, "Wake up Shanaya".

"No Rohan" Shanaya said, cuddling more into Rohan, making his heart beat at a abnormal pace.

"Shanaya come on" Rohan said, "If you don't wake up now, we won't be able to go Thailand".

"Thailand?" Shanaya said, still half asleep.

"Remember the holiday we are getting for topping our exams?" Rohan asked, smiling at Shanaya's sleepy self. 

"Can't I sleep for five more minutes".

"Nope" Rohan said, "Come on get up".

"Ugh fine" Shanaya said, sitting up. 

Rohan got up from the bed, to go to his dorm and get his bags.

"Shanaya come on, go get ready" Rohan said, seeing Shanaya making no movement in getting up.

"Rohan I can't walk" Shanaya complained.

"Your such a child" Rohan said, going towards Shanaya, "You have left me no choice nerd".

Rohan picked Shanaya up in his arms, "Rohan what are you doing?".

"You can't walk, so I'm helping you like the nice friend I am" Rohan said, "Now open the bathroom door".

Shanaya rolled her eyes at Rohan, but regardless opened the bathroom door. Rohan placed Shanaya on the counter near the sink, "Now hurry up and get ready, I'm going to go get my bags, meet me in the hall in five, and don't your dare fall asleep".

"Your bossy" Shanaya complained. 

"Deal with it" Rohan said, leaving the bathroom.

"Idiot bad boy" Shanaya whispered to Rohan's retreating figure.
