*Parth's P.O.V.*

We were driving to the hotel.. and there was an eerie silence in the car..
I somehow had an idea that Shivangi wouldn't speak much... but I really wanted to talk to her.. I wanted to break the ice.. but didn't know how to initiate the conversation. I'm also not very talkative..
I was about to say something.. when god knows from where and how, I coughed loudly..
That made her stare at me.. immediately.

Shit I love her!!! I don't know what made me feel so.. but I was so sure that she is that girl.. who is made for me!!!!! I just love her..

"Uhmm.. uhmmmm!!!
Music.. do you mind if I play some music..", I asked.

"Not at all!! Please go ahead..", she replied.
Well done Parth!!! Aise hi koshish kar.. baat shuru ho jaayegi.. I said to myself and switched on the radio..
The song that played on the radio was *Kuch Kam*.. from Dostana.. a song that I've been picturised on, also.. in my television show.

"You like the song?!", I asked her and she nodded with a smile..

"This is somewhere a very special song..", I murmered.

"Yeah.. for me too!", Shivangi remarked.

"Really?! That's such a coincidence..", I remarked excitedly.

"And may I ask the reason.. like why is this song special..?", I asked softly.

"Because of the same reason as yours..", she made an eye contact with me and blushed a little as she said this.

"My reason?!
I find this song special because I've like been picturised on this song..", I replied.

"Yeah... I find this song special because YOU'VE been picturised on this song.", She remarked, making ME blush.

This mini conversation did serve as an icebreaker..
And of course... Thank god... The music killed the silence..
probably that's why I love music..
In a little while.. I found myself humming the song.. and soon noticed that Shivangi too was humming.
She had a beautiful voice.

"You sing?!", I asked her.

"Sometimes... I mean just like that.", She said.

"You have such a sweet voice.. you really sing well!!", I smiled.. I dont know why.. but I love to compliment her.
She blushed and then said..

"You also sing so well.. and its anyway such a huge thing to get a compliment from you.."

Good job Parth. Just keep making her feel comfortable and you guys will get along very well.

"Thank you!! And it's nothing like that..
So shivangi... How is college?! You study in the best college in the country man!!! You must be so brainy..", I said trying to completely end the remaining awkwardness too.

"Arre nahi... I'm not brainy and all... It's just that I'm lucky that I've got admission here..", she said modestly.
I didn't want to get into a serious conversation and so I just said..

"Just like how I am lucky to have got the chance to have dinner with you?!!", And smirked.
And she blushed.
Before we could carry forward the conversation, we reached the lobby of the hotel.
I got out of the car and rushed to the other side.. opened the door for her and gave her my hand to come out..
She held my hand.. completely increasing my heartbeats.. and came out.
I gestured her to lock her arm into mine and after she did so.. we went inside.
I had already booked a table and so there was no chaos or waiting.
I pulled the chair for her.. she sat down and then I went and sat down right in front of her.

"What would you like to have?", I asked her.

"Anything!! Whatever you like..", she replied.

"Arre?!! Tu bata.. aaj vahi khaayenge jo tujhe pasand hai.. and no arguments!!", I told her.

"Pizza?!!!", shivangi asked.

"Dekh Shivangi.. mujhe pata hai ki tu meri fan hai.. and so obviously tujhe mere baare mein bohot kuch pata hai... So don't act smart in front of me!!!
Pizza mujhe pasand hai.. mujhe woh bata jo tujhe pasand hai..", I said to her.

"Ab agar humari choices itni match karti hain.. to main kya karoon?!!", She smirked and shrugged her shoulders.
I was loving this!!!! Shivangi was opening up and this was a BRILLIANT start!!!

"Okayyyy!!!", I rubbed my hands and called the waiter to take the order.

"Tum non veg to khaati ho na?!"

"Ahmm..", she replied in negative.

Shit!!!!!! Yahan choices MAJORLY different ho gayi...

I then ordered a veg.. and a non veg pizza!!!!

"Champagne?"

"Nope!", she replied and I couldn't help but smile. Kaafi sudhri hui hai...

"Two cokes!!!", I said to the waiter.

"Can I say something?", she asked me softly.

"That's what I am waiting for!", I mumbled under my breath.

"Haan???", She asked me.
Shit!! Was I so loud???

"Nahi.. kuch bhi to nahi.. tum bolo kya bol rahi thi!", I tried to cover up and cursed myself.. IN MY HEAD.

"Did you... By any chance.. drop a glass of coke on a girl this afternoon..?", She asked me.
I recalled all that had happened.. and yes.. I had.. dropped coke on a girl. But why was Shivangi asking me this..?

"I did... But how do you know!!!", I asked her curiously.
And all that she did was smile.

"Are you serious?!! No?!!!
It can't be you!!!!", I was surprised.

"Yup!!!!", She blushed!!!

"Oh crap!!! We missed about 5 hours of being together!!!", I said in a flow...
Parth!!!! Tu gadha hai... Yeh kon bolta hai!!!!!

"Haan ji?!!", She asked.

"I mean.. we could have become friends even earlier.. that's it..", I again covered up.

Parth.. woh dumb nahi hai.. use samajh aata hai.. kyun bakwaas kar raha hai....

Soon our dinner arrived.. and we chatted over dinner...
She now seemed more like her real self.. and that made me fall for her even more..

After dinner.. we were so full.. that none of us had any space for desserts.. but I did get pastries packed for Shivangi and her friends..

We were now leaving as I had promised to drop Shivangi back to the hostel.. well within time!

When we had come.. we had our arms locked.. and now.. this time.. our fingers were locked with each other..
We drove back quietly.. with soft romantic music in the background.. it all seemed so perfect..

We had now reached the college.. I halted the car.. and none of us got down..
Shivangi rested her head on the back of the seat..

"Shivangi...", I said softly.

"Hum college aa gaye.. utren?? Varna late ho jayega.."

"Hmm", she said and was about to get down when she suddenly turned around and hugged me..

"Thank you.. this is undoubtedly the best day of my life...", She said.. still in the hug.

I kept one hand on her back and other on her head.. I just couldn't say anything.
She then got down and before she left..

"Stay in touch!! We will meet soon!", is all I could say.. and then she went inside.
