"Goodnight baby. Go and sleep now." Arnav said after an an hour of talk.

"Goodnight Arnav." Khushi said feeling happy to talk to him peaceful  after a week. They have been busy with their respective life. It took only a nick of time for Arnav to become one of the national crush. There have been tons of tiktok mix made on him.

They never knew that people were obsessed with looks. This incident proved them that people care more about the looks than that of the character. Arnav is pissed off with tge attention he got from the public meanwhile Khushi tried her best to make him understand about the situation.

Khushi lean back on the chair thinking about what all he said to her. She knew that he will react badly if someone pushes the wrong button. Her hand moved towards her bag and touched the keychain hanging on it. She smiled fondly remembering how this keychain become favourite.

Flashback

Ha Ha Haa... Ha Ha Haa…

Baatein Zaroori Hain, Tera Milna Bhi Zaroori

Talks(with You) are important,(but) meeting You is equally important

Maine Mita Deni Yeh Jo Teri Meri Doori

I will eradicate the distances between us

Arnav and his friends entered her class room.
"I will be in charge of your department in the intercollegiate fest. We have taken this step to avoid favouritism and to give equal opportunity for everyone." Arnav said standing in second year maths class.

Payal looked at Khushi and give her a knowing smile.
"Seriously Khushi, he is doing this to give equal change for everyone?" Payal whispered to Khushi who lightly pinched her arms.

"Your don can't stay away from our department at all. After all his sweetheart is here." Payal teased Khushi making her blush a little.

"So whose the topper in your class?" Arnav asked hiding his grin. He saw all the students looking at her direction.

"So my assignment writer is the topper, that's great." He said moving towards her while she looked at him and Payal.

"As you are the topper, I'm sure that you are the prefect candidate for the maths quiz competition. You will have a parter from first year class." He let her know.

"What? How? I don't know...." Khushi tried to argue.

"I'm the senior." Arnav said and turned towards the class.

"Does anybody object this decision regarding her participating in the intercollegiate maths quiz competition?" He asked and they all shook her head.

"See, now get ready for the competition." He said to Khushi and exit from there.

Ha Ha Haa... Ha Ha Haa…

Hmm Baatein Zaroori Hain, Tera Milna Bhi Zaroori

Talks are important, meeting You is equally important

Maine Mita Deni Yeh Jo Teri Meri Doori

I will eradicate the distances between us

Jhoothi Hain Woh Raahein Saari Duniya Ki

All those roads in the world are false(fake/useless)

Ishq Jahaan Na Chale

Where love doesn’t tread

Tera Hona Mera Hona Kya Hona

Our existence is not worthy

Agar Na Dono Milein

If we don’t meet each other

(If we don’t become each other’s partners)

"Don gets what he wants." Payal teased Khushi which earned her a pinch from Khushi.

That day, Arnav pick from Khushi from college and went to their private spot. As soon as she gets down, she turned towards him and raised her eyebrows at him.

"Why did you included me in the quiz competition without my permission?"

"Because I can do that." He said moving next to her.

Tu Pehla Pehla Pyaar Hai Mera… (x4)

You are my first love

"Laadgovernor, I won't participate in the quiz."

"No baby, you will participate in the competition and will surely win too."

"How do you know that?"

"Well, my girl is too intelligent."

"What if I mess up everything and become a laughing stock in from of everyone?"

"You won't mess up anything and nobody will laugh at you. Just consider it as a fun activity and don't worry too much about it. It's just a silly competition." He assured her.

"Hmm, I don't know."

"Come to ABC college on this 26th along with Payal." He told her.

"Payal?" She asked raising her eyebrows knowing his dislike for Payal.

"I don't want to be alone in a new environment. So it's better if you come there with Payal, but I will be around you. Tomorrow that junior will come to meet you who is suppose to be your partner in the quiz." He informed her.

"What did you say in our class? This is to avoid partiality, aren't doing that exactly?" She taunt him.

"Baby I know that you are the best and I'm not partial."

"Yeah, I know that. Laadgovernor know how to play his cards." He smiled at her and pulled her close.

"Now I should play my card to get a kiss from my girl."

"You are not getting any kiss for what you did today." She poked her finger on his chest.

"Poor me." Saying this he pecked her lips swiftly.

"Laadgovernor, I told you not to kiss me."

"Well, it's for you baby. I can't let you suffer because of my punishment. Forget about my kiss, I just want you to get your kiss."

"You are such a manipulator laadgovernor." She giggled and kissed him.

Woh Shehar Bade Honge Boriyat Bhare

Those cities will be very boring

Rehta Nahi Jin Mein Tu Sang Mere

In which You wouldn’t be there beside me

Khabar Tujhe Bhi Hai Yeh

You also know of this fact

Raunaqein Sabhi Hoti Tere Hone Se

Glow/Jubilance exists only when You are present

Tere Bina Tanha Koi Kya Kare…

Without You, what should a lonely person do

Aise Sabhi Sheheron Pe Mujhko Taras Hai Aata Bada

I feel pity about those cities

Tere Liye Main Na Jahaan Khada O...

In which I’m not standing beside You

Khushi reached ABC college with Payal.

"Khush, where is your don? Did he really told you to wait for him?" Payal asked Khushi.

"Yes, let me message him." She is about to take her phone when she saw him walking towards them.

"You look beautiful baby." He said as soon as he reached near her, Khushi blushed and smiled at him.

"Come, the competition will start soon. Your partner is waiting for you." Saying this he took both of them to hall where the program will be conducted.

Khushi meet her partner Priyanka and they went to the dais as they were called upon to the stage.

The competition started and slowly the numbers of team got reduced to 5. It was a rapid fire round where they have to answer the maximum questions within a minute.

Meelon Ka Ho Saalon Ka Ho Chaahe Woh

May it be miles long, may it be years long

Safar Ki Parwaah Nahi

I don’t care how long the journey is

Few of the boys from other college were trying to distract others competitors by making noise. It's Khushi and Priyanka chance and the boys made noise as soon as the round started.

Arnav lost his self control when someone mocked her being an amputee. He moved to the boys and punched the one who mocked her on his nose, making it bleed.

"Who the hell want to mess up with the student from my college?" Arnav roared as she stood behind him watching everything from the podium.

"You son of a b*t*h, dare you raise your voice again. Sit here calmly and don't disturb." One boy moved forward to question him, he too end up with a bleeding nose. The boys run away from there and he turned towards the podium and sat on the chair to watch the competition.

"Are you going on with the competition?" He asked raising his eyebrows at the quizmaster and he nodded his head. Khushi glance at him and he blinked his eyes at her.

At the end Khushi and Priyanka won the quiz competition making him proud of her. He messaged Khushi to go with Payal and wait for him in the nearby bus stop.

They were about to leave when they saw the boys beaten up be Arnav moving towards his direction along with some boys.

"Khush, seems like your don is going to continue his legacy of fighting in here too." Payal commented making her anxious.

"Payal, come with me." Saying this they walked behind them. Khushi don't want him to indulge in any fight. Khushi called him and he attended her call on the second ring itself.

"Don't get into any fight Arnav." Khushi said as soon as he attended the call.

"What? What happened?" He asked her and then he saw the boys walking towards him.

"Promise me that you won't fight." She asked him.

"I won't make the first move. Don't worry. Bye." Saying this he cut the call and saw his friends looking at him seeing the boys coming towards him.

When Khushi and Payal reached there they saw the Arnav talking to one boy and they all left after a few minutes. Shyam and Akash laughed at the boys while Arnav stood there with a smirk. He moved his eyes and saw her standing far away from him.

Khushi saw him typing something in the phone and her phone beeped.

<Wait for me in Z bus stop within half an hour.> Khushi read his message and nodded her head at him.

Khushi waited for him along with Payal.

"Here comes your don Khush. 

Khushi waited for him along with Payal. 

"Here comes your don Khush. Can't he be polite to me? See how he is treating your best friend?" Payal whine and Khushi giggled.

"That's because there isn't a word such as polite in his dictionary." Khushi told Payal as he stopped his bike in front of her.

"Get in baby." He told her.

"ASR, keep my friend safe." Payal said starting her scooty.

"I will for sure." Saying this he rides to their private space.

They sat on the grass next to each other. Khushi isn't impressed with tge way he behaved today.

"Seems like you are not in your good mood." Arnav told seeing her gloomy face.

"Why do you fight like this Arnav?" She asked looking at him.

"I couldn't help myself when he mocked you and that f**ker deserves that."

"I don't want you to fight with anyone and get into trouble."

"ASR won't get into trouble baby. Don't worry about it." He said squeezing her hand.

"Why did they leave without any fight?" Khushi asked after a few seconds.

"I have beaten their main guy earlier and he withdrew when he saw me." Arnav replied honestly.

"When did you beaten him?" 

"When I was in tenth. It was fight happened in the class and I got a month suspension for that."

"What happened to him?"

"He got his hand broken and I had some minor cuts and sir muscles."

"You should stop such violent act Arnav." Khushi said leaning onto him.

"When it's about you, I have no control over that."

"I don't want you to get into any trouble. I want you here with me."

"I will be here with you baby." He said pulling her closer to him and placing a kiss on her forehead.

"I'm proud of you. My girl is indeed a topper." He said feeling proud of her win.

Tu Hai Jahaan Maine Wahaan Hona Hai

I want to be there where You are

Pahunch Hai Jaana Wahin

I want to reach that place(doesn’t matter how long it takes)

Tu Pehla Pehla Pyaar Hai Mera… (x4)

You are my first love

"Priyanka was a great help. It's a joint effort."

"I only care about my girl. So here a small gift for yoyr win." Saying this he gave her a bar of chocolate. He eyes Shi like a diamond as soon as she got the chocolate. She kissed his cheek and started to unwrap it.

Arnav broke a piece of chocolate and fed her.

"To my baby." He said placing it in her mouth. She giggled and fed him a piece of chocolate in return.

Khushi had the chocolate and looked at him.

"I wanted to do this for a long time, but didn't get an opportunity." Saying this he slammed his lips on her chocolatey lips making her groan in pleasure. He kissed her and savoured the chocolate remained in her. They parted away after sometime and she hugged him wrapping her arms around his waist. 

They left from there and on their way it started raining. Arnav parked the bike near a building close to the park. She forward her hand and plate with tge water droplets.

"Arnav, can we go for a walk in the rain." Khushi asked him.

"Okay, come on then." He said taking an umbrella from his bike. He mentally thanked Hari Prakash for compelling him to take an umbrella. 

"No, don't take the umbrella." She told him.

"You are not stepping out from here without an umbrella."

"Why can't I step out without an umbrella?" She asked him feeling offended.

"Your dress is cotton and If you get wet, everything will get transparent. I don't want that to happen. Also it will be a torture to me too." He said opening the umbrella.

"Come." He said stepping into the rain. Khushi took his hand and walked under the umbrella. He wrapped his arms around her shoulder as they walked in the rain. Khushi can feel the rain drop falling on her foot.

Arnav walked slowly as she walked with the help of the crutch. He held the umbrella for her and made sure that she don't get that much wet.

They sat under a wooden umbrella in the park enjoying the rain. 

"It's been a long time since I enjoyed rain like this." Khushi said entwining their fingers.

"I'm glad that it's with me." He replied and she smiled at him. After a few minutes, the rain stopped and they stood up to leave.

"Arnav, come with me." Saying this she walked to the right side and he followed her. He watched her kneeling down carefully and picking up some red coloured seeds from the floor. He kneel down and looked at her.

"These are lucky seeds. Me and bhai used to collect it when we were in Ahmedabad. Bhai liked to collect this. He collected 1153 seeds and I'm adding as much as I can to his collection." Khushi said with misty eyes. Arnav looked at the red seed on the floor and took it. He saw her collecting a few seeds and he too helped her.

"So how many of these seeds are with you now?" Arnav asked her.

"Around 3794 seeds." Khushi told him. She gave the seeds to him as she doesn't have her bag with her. 

"Come, let me take you home." He said once they collected enough seeds. He dropped her home and rides away.

***********

Arnav watched Khushi as she talked to Payal sitting in her class. She can sense his eyes on her from far. His smile replaced with anger when he saw a boy sat next to both of them. He can see how his eyes moved to her face as she cleared some doubt of him. He have been noticing this guy who is roaming around her for the past two weeks.

Arnav moved to her class which is empty as it's lunch break time.

"Hey you. Whats your name?" Arnav asked the boy who got startled by the sudden question.

"Ruhaan."

"Go to the indoor stadium and help the boys." Arnav ordered him and Ruhaan looked at the book and Khushi.

"Why are you ogling at here? Leave now." Arnav raised his voice a little and he walked away taking his stuffs.

"Wait." Arnav called him and he turned around to face Arnav.

"Don't hit on a girl from your class. That the rule of this college." He let him know and turned around to face her who is in extreme anger.

"Why did you do that?"

"That douche bag is trying to hit on my girl. Always roaming round you with a book in his hand." Arnav said as he stood in front of an angry Khushi.

"You look beautiful beautiful when you are angry." He flickered his finger on her nose and walked away leaving a fuming Khushi.

"That laadgovernor. I'm going to kill him today." She muttered as Payal shook her head.

At evening Arnav took her to their spot. On reaching their Khushi hit on his arms in anger.

"You are such a laadgovernor. Why did you scare away that Ruhaan?"

"I already told you the reason. S****drel, when you were explaining the question his eyes were on your face and neck instead of the book."

"Are you going to do this to everyone who ogle at me?" She asked him.

"I don't know. I just know that you are mine. Mine to make you smile, laugh, blush and mine to admire. Nobody has the right to do that."

"Arnav, you shouldn't be this possessive."

"Are you scared?" He asked tucking some loose hair strand behind her ears.

"Yes, sometimes your possessiveness scares me a lot." He kissed her forehead and held her hand.

"I can't help it baby. You are just mine, that all matters to me." He said burying his face on her neck as he fleets kisses on her neck. He brought his lips from her neck to her lips. He kissed her like it's the last kiss they are sharing. They broke the kiss when they were short of breath.

Khushi lean on to his shoulder savouring the feel of being in his arms. She loved the way he wraps his hands around her.

"When will you leave for your match?" Khushi asked about the local match he have in the night.

"After an hour. It's a small match." Arnav let her know.

"Do you get into fight in such matches?" 

"Not always, but sometimes. I hate foul play and its the main reason for the fights."

"You must have got a lot of yellow and red cards then?" Khushi asked him.

"Those cards are mainly given for foul play, so I don't get it a lot. Well, I got a short term ban when I was in under 18 football team."

"What happened?"

"I hit the opponent teammate and had a 3 month ban from the state football association."

"You should control your anger or else it will affect your career." Khushi advised him.

"I'm trying, I can at least reduce my anger a little." He replied placing a kiss on her partition.

They sat there for sometime and Khushi took the football from his bag.

"Is this your ball?" Khushi asked lightly tapping on the football.

"I really want to answer in a naughty way, but it's okay." He said with a naughty smile while she looked at him without getting what he meant.

"What is naughty in that?" Khushi asked him.

"You asked me about MY balls baby." He replied making her eyes get wider.

"Pervert Singh Raizada." She lightly slapped on his hand and looked away.

Jeete Jee Toh Jeetega Na Yeh Faasla Hai Pata

While I am alive, these distances between me and You will never be victorious

(Nothing can separate us as long as I’m alive)

Saansein Chalein Teri Taraf, Jaise Chale Raasta

My breath moves in Your direction, like my road/path does

Mera Hai Tu, Tu Hai Khalish, Ya Hai Khushi Ya Khata

You are mine, are You my anxiety, my happiness or my mistake

Tere Siwa Mera Jahaan Se Na Koi Waasta

I don’t have any connection to the world except You

(You are the only person in this world that I care about)

"Baby, do you feel uncomfortable when I talk like this?" He asked after a few minutes. Khushi looked at him and entwined their fingers.

"It's all new to me Arnav. Everything we have been sharing is new to me. You know what the best thing about it? I'm sharing all these with you and I trust you a lot. You have never made me uncomfortable by your look or gestures. When we shared that moment in the apartment, you could have completed the act there itself and you didn't do that. I thought about it later and I felt that it was the right thing to do. I want us to proceed it when both of us want it, when both of us want to do it for ourselves than any other reason. So never doubt that you are making me uncomfortable." Khushi explained and placed a kiss on his cheek. Arnav wrapped his arms around her with a smile on his face.

"So we were talking about the ball." He said with a hint of naughtiness.

"Yeah, about football laadgovernor." She teased him.

"Yup, for now it's football." He repeated.

"Can you teach me how to rotate the football? Khushi asker him and he took the ball in his arms.

"You want to learn this?" He asked.

"I want to learn this. Is it easy to do?" Khushi said as she saw him rotating the football on the tip of his index finger.

"You need to practice a little. Come here." He said and taught her how to do it. At first Khushi knocked up the ball a few times. After a lot of attempts she rotated the football on the tip or her finger.

"Yippee, I did it." Khushi shouted like a child while rotating the ball on her hand. He looked at her smiling face and felt immense joy in his heart. He liked seeing her smile and laugh.

Khushi lean on to his shoulder and placed a kiss on his shoulder.

"Thanks for teaching me."

"I prefer action over a verbal thanks." He said looking at her plump lips. She blushed a little and kissed him thoroughly.

"Happy now?" She asked him.

"Very much." Saying this he placed a small packet on her hand.

"What is it?" She asked looking at him.

"Check it out." Khushi opened the packet and what she saw inside made her tear up.

"This is beautiful." She took the keychain and cared the lucky seed beads hanging in it.

"Where did you find it?" Khushi asked him.

"It's the same beads we have collected." He let her know.

"You made it?" Khushi asked in disbelief.

"No, I know someone who make keychains. They made it for me. You can keep this keychain with you." His words made her feel overwhelmed. She hugged him with happiness and smiled as her eyes filled with tears.

"I...this is..you are so thoughtful Arnav." Khushi found hard to express her feeling.

"Its okay. I'm happy that you liked it." He said.

Khushi took her bag and hang the keychain on her zipper.

"You are the best." She wrapped her arms around him as he strokes her hair lovingly.

End of Flashback.

Khushi got ready to meet Arnav. His team gets into the final and got defeated against North East United. Now he is in town and she can't keep her excited to meet him. Because of his sudden fame, he is staying in an apartment of his friend. Khushi waited at the bus stop for Sukhvinder paji who will take her to Arnav.

Khushi wished Sukhvinder and get inti the car. He drives to the 20 storied flat and guided her towards his flat. Khushi rang the bell in excitement to see him. She is all set to surprise him with her little make over. The door got open and she stood there in shock for a few seconds.

"Hello Miss Raizada, can I meet Mr. Raizada?" Khushi asked the figure standing in front of him.
