They reached Coorg. 2 People occuiped per room while Avni and Juhi in one room and Ali and Neil in another room which are next to each other at the corner of the corridor. Neil made sure he gets the room next to Avni. They rest there for sometime and planned to go for lunch as it become almost lunch time and then planned to go around and explore some place.

Avni and Juhi were moving to the dining area and saw Neil and Riya who were sitting beside each other and talking with other people. Neil had a empty seat beside him waiting for Avni to fill up. Juhi looked at Avni who stopped moving and followed her gaze and found Riya with Neil. She chuckled as jealousy were clearly seen in her face. She nudged her shoulder while Avni looked at her. Avni smiled totally changing her expression and went and sat beside Vidyut and opposite to Neil. Neil frowned immediately seeing her who didn't sat beside him. They ordered food while they steal glance at each other. As their feeling of jealousy is mutual. They had their dinner and planning their destination to explore.

Whereas Avni and Juhi were walking around to explore that hotel as Juhi wanna click some pictures. They were on the pool side while Avni was clicking pictures of Juhi.

"I wanna click a picture here... " Avni said while Juhi nodded and Avni moved towards the pool side. Neil was looking at her standing a little away from them.

After clicking a picture, she just took a step but got slipped and fell on the water.

"Avni!! " He shouted and ran towards the pool.

In an instant he jumped into the pool without even a second thought and caught her while Avni was breathing heavily holding his shirt tightly. Her eyes were tight shut.

"It's okay... It's okay.... Calm Down! " He whispered making her realize that he caught her and asked her not to be panic.

She slowly opened her eyes meeting his eyes. He was already looking at her. They share an eyelock while everybody surrounded there.

"Thank God! " Juhi said sighing which broked their trance.

Without a second thought, he picked her in bridal style, walking out of the pool while her hands were surrounded around his neck. She was looking at him continuously who was looking at everyone.

"I... I'll just take Avni to her room" He said and he didn't bothered about anything.

The second he saw her struggling on the water made his heart skip a beat. He walked towards the lift and got in. All the while her gaze was only on him. Neil felt her strong gaze and he looked at her while Avni looked away nervously. He can feel her body shivering. The lift got open. Juhi followed them back as she has the key to their room. She opened the door while Neil got into the room and made Avni to stand. Neil was looking at her while Avni was looking down. His nose touched her cheeks when he made her to stand and she can sense his hot breath.

Avni walked towards Washroom without saying anything. Neil walked from there leaving Juhi there. He got into his room to change.

After sometime,

Neil stepped into her room and found some of their colleagues were already there.

"Juhi... Hachuuu....I am saying na... " She sneezed and sniffed saying something to her.

"No way... Leaving you like this... How can I go? " She said not wanting to leave her friend alone. Avni passed the plan as she was feeling so cold and coming out in this cold climate make her condition even worse. So she said she will join them in the evening after taking some rest. While Juhi said she will also be with her and Now Avni started pacifying her.

"Juhi... We all came to enjoy and I don't wanna ruin anything because of me... " She said with a sad pout.

"May be I can be with Avni... " Everyone heard the voice and immediately turned their face to see the voice.

"It's okay Ne... " Before avni could say Neil interrupted.

"Actually I have been here quite a few time... So may be I can be with Avni... You guys can enjoy... " He said totalling avoiding Avni as he don't want her to convince  him to go with them when she was not feeling well.

"May be Neil is right... I mean... He have visited this place... And he have no problem staying with Avni also right... " Ali said agreeing with him.

"Par Ali... "Avni again tried to interrupt but Neil interrupted her

"Yeahhh Guys!!... Chill!!.. Don't worry! " He said giving a smile while Juhi was happy after all Neil is staying with her.

After saying Byee, everyone left leaving Avneil alone in her room. Avni pouted looking at him who was already looking at her . It's not like she don't want to be with Neil, the thing is that she don't wanna ruin anyone trip mode because of her. Neil was looking at her and was going Awee at her pout.

"Sorry Neil... And Thank You! " She said sniffing . Her nose was little red and her words made his smile fade.

"Both are not accepted... " He said while her eyes widen.

"Why? " She asked him

"Something things are not accepted! " He said sternly making her sigh.

"Omg Avni...are you serious? " He asked her realising something while Avni looked at him confused.

"Didn't care to dry your hair... Like seriously? " He said with his eyebrow raised.

"No!!.. I did with towel as I forgot my hair dryer... " She said running her hands on her hair.

"Yeahh I can see that clearly... " He said talking her towel and moved near her. He went on with a flow drying her hair and there comes a complete silence. Avni didn't said anything while the reality striked him.

He backed off removing towel from her and stretched the towel in front of her.

"You... You... Sho.. Should.... " Words betrayed him as he couldn't able to make his point.

"Argh!! " He screamed on his head

"You should dry it properly... " He gulped down making his dry throat to be wet and spoke.

"I.. I don't know how to do it properly... " She said in a low tone stating the fact. she liked it when he did it by himself. And the way he cared for her . She bit her inner cheeks looking at him.

"Huh... This girl na... Should I ask her" He thought in his mind looking at her.

"Can... I? " He asked her while she nodded. Neil then came near her and started drying her hairs while a wide smile danced on his face.

Later on

He made coffee for her and they had a random talk. After that Avni slept while Neil was sitting there admiring her.

At evening

After exploring place from Morning, they all returned to home a hour back to get relaxed for some time and just get ready for Pub. Neil, Ali, Juhi and Avni planned to go on a same car. Neil and Ali waiting for them.

"How much time this girls are taking ... Seriously, I am pitying for their future boyfriend... " Ali said in a annoyed tone while Neil looked at Ali with a widen eyes. While Ali looked at his expression.

"Trust me..... Vaise ek baat batao... Do you had/have any girlfriend? " He asked him while he swallowed a lump and nodded his head negatively.

"Hifi! " He waved his hand at him while he did it back and at the same time they also reached. Neil saw her and was continuously looking at her as she was like looking gorgeous. She looked at him and she was also looking at him as he was looking handsome in his suit. They were keep on looking at each other.

When they travel all the way to Coorg, Juhi and Avni sat on the back while Ali and Neil sat on the front.

Ali about to go and open the front door while Juhi came near him.

"Haa Ali.. Tum mere saath peeche betna.." She said in his ears while he looked at her confused.

"Kyu? " He asked her

"Areey You should sit with me okay... " She said and drag him to sit with her backside.

Neil sat in front while Avni was about to go open the back seat while Ali stopped her.

"Huhh avni... I will sit at back " He said while Avni looked at him.

"Why Ali..I mean... "She was interrupted by Juhi.

" Haa.. He is feeling little sick after travelling ......." Juhi said while Ali widen his eyes.

"Yeh kab hua? " He asked in his ears 

"Shh!! " She replied and smiled at Avni.

"Are you okay Ali? " Avneil asked in unison and looked at each other

"Yeahh.. Yeahh" He said while they got settled in Car.

Neil felt really happy. He tried to hide his smile and was acting casually. Avni was looking straight trying to be normal.

He started the car and within some time they reached there.

Later on,

They were having a good time. Some of them dancing While Neil came towards Avni and Juhi.

"Huh....Avni...Vo....Ma...May I? " He asked his hand for a dance while Avni blushed looking at him. She turned to looked at Juhi who was going Awee on them.

Neil was waiting for her reply while Avni kept her hand over him nodding her head.

They went on the dance floor. His hand went behind her back holding her while her hand was in his shoulder. Their other hands were tangled with each other. And moved their body along with the music. They were looking at each other eyes while Avni was blushing continuously. He moved his head closed while Avni become conscious. She started breathing heavily. His nose stroked her cheeks moving near her ears.

"You are looking beautiful... " He whispered on her ears and he felt confident around her no reason today making her blush even more.

She looked down blushing. They were dancing with each other happily and this moment were precious for them. They lost in the moment. Their eyes were speaking while their lips were at the rest. The silent sweetness were soothing to their ears. He just pulled her a inch closer than before. They had a wide smile on their face while Avni was trying to avoid her blush. Avni felt really special at the moment.

After some time.

They were standing together having soft drink.

"Neil... " Riya came there while they looked at her

"I was searching for you.. Ab mere saath bhi dance karo na.... " She said and hold his hand and without even listening to him, She drag him to the dance floor.

Her smile totally faded. She spoiled her entire mood in a seconds.

"iced -tea please.. " She asked gritting her teeth.

While he was in with Riya and his mood spoiled too. He felt really bad for leaving Avni as such. He just wanted to talk to Avni as she felt more confident today than any other day. He was quite wondered about that but everything was ruined.

Avni was continously glaring at them .
