CHARMS AND FANTASIES

❝Where is the life we have lost in living?❞

- T.S. Eliot

Summary:

Ruhi Malhotra is the personification of 'looks like a cinnamon roll but can kill you'. She likes how her life is at the moment- happy and content. She wants nothing more than to get out of high school and attend her dream college.

Ruhi likes everyone because according to her, 'you should always look for the good in people'. But this motto doesn't apply for her childhood enemy Vivaan Mishra.

Vivaan Mishra is Cosmic High School's resident playboy and teacher's favourite. With a fanbase larger than any actor, he is the heartthrob of all the girls in the school. He likes girls more than anything (not more than cricket and his reputation though) but the only girl undesirable in his eyes is Ruhi Malhotra- his childhood enemy.

But when they are forced to share a camp on an unfortunate camp trip, unwanted sparks starts to fly. Both Ruhi and Vivaan are adamant to suppress their feeling and continue hating each other because opposites shouldn't attract. But long can they hate each other when all they want is each other.

Author's Note!

Firstly, thanks for giving this story a chance. I first started writing this back in 2020 and the title was 'Campsite'. But I soon lost interest in it and ended up unpublishing it and decided to never publish it again.

After some months, I casually told about this story to my friend, Raima who pushed me to write it. And so did my other friend, Sarannya. Thanks to both of them.

Even though I neglected this story a lot initially, now I totally love writing this. Hope you all will enjoy reading this as much as I did writing this.

Thanks to lionessoftheseas for making the beautiful opening banner!!
