Author's note: Well here's another...trash draft?

Sara Tendulkar,
The Uni's Pretty Princess

❝ When I asked God to send down a Mr.Darcy on Earth, I did not mean him to be in form of Gill!❞

❝ Y'know I'd have agreed with all the bullshit you just said, but then that'd make both of us wrong.❞

❝ I don't have the 'pretty privelege' and even if I did, I don't need to use it. I'm not dumb to have the need to use my face to get my work done, I'm smart enough to know how to do it without it.❞

Shubman Gill,
The Campus' Cricketing Prince

❝ I'd rather have my wicket taken on a duck than have her play Elizabeth Bennet.❞

❝ 'Course I know I got girls staring at me, I'm quite the package y'know, looks, wealth, personality, marks, sports, I got it all.❞

❝ I'm excellent at keeping my thoughts to myself, like you wouldn't know I'm plotting your murder this very second, I can conceal that well.❞

Them, ShubSara,
The uni's self proclaimed Mr.Darcy and Lizzie

[ Bold-Sara,
Bold Italic-Shubman ]

❝ Whatever, kid.❞

❝ At least I'm taller than you!❞

❝ And? What else comes with the height apart from dreamy and lustful gazes? If maturity came with heights, I doubt you'd have grown tall at all.❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ Date? Her? I'd rather lose a wicket!❞

❝ I ain't dying to date you either. If I were given a choice between reading Tempest and dating you, I'd rather read Tempest a thousand times, enact it too maybe, despite it being Shakespeare's most boring book, than choose to go out with you out of all people!❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ Look you have to give this role up! I'm not going to do this play with you!❞

❝ Why should I give it up? Did I ask you to audition? Or did I promise to give my role up if you get in? I got in because of my abilities, I ain't losing it because of an idiot like you.❞

❝ You're so annoying!❞

❝ Find a new comeback Gill, this is the nth time you're telling me that, at this point I'm afraid you're short of vocabulary and comebacks both, should I help you search a few on Pinterest? At least it'd make something about you interesting, if not your whole 'I'm a hot all-rounder' personality.❞

❝ You-I hate you!❞

❝ That's an old one too.❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ Y'know what? I'm going to do this, with you that too. I don't care, I'm not losing this role. So fuck it, let's just get on with this.❞

❝ Am I dreaming or are you actually acting like an adult?❞

❝ Ha! How original, did Pinterest help you with this?❞

❝ No, I just happened to come face to face with a kid who finally grew out of his idiocity, I'm bound to be surprised.❞

❝ I'm just two years younger than you! Just two!❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ I love you, most ardently-Professor I can't do this!❞

❝ Tch tch, giving up already Gill? I thought you wanted to do this quite desperately. I s'ppose I was indeed proven wrong, again.❞

❝ You-stop vexing me! I'm not giving up! I'd be the last one to give up!❞

❝ We'll see that.❞

❝ I'm a man of my words Tendulkar! I mean it!❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ A kiss sequence? Professor you've got to be kidding me!❞

❝ Ah why? Afraid you'd get swept away the very first time Tendulkar?❞

❝ Fuck off!❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ You look beautiful.❞

❝ Was that for Sara or Lizzie?❞

❝ H-huh? Yes, Sa-no what the fuck Ishan stop interrupting us, It was for Lizzie of-course!❞

❝ Thank you, you don't look so bad yourself.❞

❝ Now was that for Mr.Darcy or Shubman?❞

❝ Get out Kishan!❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ Who was he?❞

❝ Oh, an old friend.❞

❝ He didn't look like a 'friend' to me.❞

❝ Why? You're jealous?❞

❝ What if I say I am?❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ Was it truly just an act for you Shubman?❞

❝ N-no, Sara, hear me out-❞

❝ I think I've heard enough for the day.❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ What will it take for you to give up Shubman? How many more rejections do you want to face?❞

❝ I'm not giving up.❞

❝ Why?❞

❝ I told you during the practice didn't I? I'd be the last one to give up.❞

❝ You meant that?❞

❝ I also told you I'm a man of my words Sara. I'm merely proving it.❞

ᥫ¤♡¤᭡

❝ What do you want? Why are you here? If you're here to ask me if I've given up on my role, I've not. Mr.Darcy ain't losing his Elizabeth.❞

❝ Mr.Darcy can have his Elizabeth for all I care. I'm not here for her. I'm here for the person who plays her, she's the one I want and need by my side, that is, if she will have me.❞
