Chains of Love
Chapter 1 – The Beginning
Vikram Singhania
Bro, chill. You look like you’re about to get results of your board exam
*grins*
Dev khanna
Exactly! I’ve never seen you this restless
*Throws a bottle of water at Shaurya, laughing*
Shaurya Chauhan
It’s not funny
*Catches the bottle leaning on the wall without looking, his eyes fixed on someone near the stairs*
Vikram Singhania
You’ve been after her for what, two years? Pretty sure she knows. Why So scared now?
*Elbows him playfully*
Shaurya Chauhan
I’m not scared. Just… making sure it’s perfect
*Exhales sharply*
Dev khanna
Perfect? From you? The great Shaurya Chauhan?
*Snorts*
Shaurya Chauhan
After all, who could resist Shaurya Chauhan?
*smirks arrogantly running a hand through his thick hair*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Pushes off the wall, striding forward. For a fleeting second, his gaze brushes past a simple girl in a white chudidhar laughing shyly with her friends*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Looks away without a thought. His eyes only on certain someone*
Shaurya Chauhan
Tanya *confident*
Tanya Sharma
*Turns to him flashing a lazy smirk*
Shaurya Chauhan, gracing us commoners? I’m honored
Shaurya Chauhan
*Chuckles and steps closer*
Got a minute?
Tanya Sharma
Only if you promise it’s exciting
*flipping her hair teasingly*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Smiles cockily*
More than exciting
Shaurya Chauhan
*takes a deep breath*
Tanya... I like you. I have for two years now. Be my girlfriend
The corridor falls into silence for a beat
Tanya Sharma
*Blinks, then bursts into laughter, carefree*
Tanya Sharma
Aww, Shaurya, that’s so sweet.
*places a hand dramatically on her chest*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Stiffens*
Shaurya Chauhan
I mean it
*Jaw clenched *
Tanya Sharma
*Steps closer, eyes trailing over him*
You’re hot, no doubt It's a tempting offer really.
Shaurya Chauhan
*Lips curve upward*
Then say yes
Tanya Sharma
*Leans in, whispering near his ear*
I don’t do relationships, handsome. They’re... boring.
Tanya Sharma
*pulls back with a wink*
But you and I? We can have some fun.
Shaurya Chauhan
You’re rejecting me?
*Voice drops dangerously low, fists curling *
Tanya Sharma
Rejection is such a harsh word darling. Think of it as... keeping your options open
*Twirls a strand of hair lazily*
Shaurya Chauhan
You think I’m playing
*sharply*
Tanya Sharma
You’ll survive this *Brushes past him*
Tanya Sharma
Don’t fall in love with me, I break hearts for breakfast
Tanya Sharma
*Walks away laughing, hips swaying*
Some boys nearby whistle, their eyes shamelessly following her
Shaurya Chauhan
*Jaw tightens, fury burning in his eyes*
Shaurya Chauhan
Challenge accepted, Tanya Sharma. You will come to me. On your knees
*Mutters under his breath*
???
*turns hearing the commotion, her soft eyes linger on Shaurya*
Shaurya Chauhan
*his angry gaze sweeps the corridor*
???
*Bites her lower lip nervously*
Shaurya Chauhan
*doesn't notice her*

Chapter 2 — The Plan
Shaurya Chauhan
*Leaning against a pillar, eyes scanning the courtyard, jaw clenched*
Shaurya Chauhan
I’ll make her mine, no matter what.
*narrows his eyes, lost in thought*
Suddenly, a nerdy student fumbles with a stack of books. They fall and scatter across the ground. Students around burst into laughter.
Random student:
Careful, bro! The library exploded! *Snickering*
Nerd student
*Turns red, panicked*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Takes a step forward, but freezes when a girl kneels down*
Aradhya Sharma
*Softly, picking up books*
Don’t worry. Here... it’s okay.
Aradhya Sharma
*smiles gently at the boy, ignoring the laughter*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Stares, heart skipping a beat*
Nerd student
T-thank you.
*Grateful smile*
Aradhya Sharma
*Nods politely, stands adjusting her dupatta, and walks away with her friends*
Shaurya Chauhan
Who is she...?
*Murmurs under his breath, dazed*
Dev khanna
She’s Tanya’s sister.
*Appears at his side, smirking*
Shaurya Chauhan
Tanya’s sister?
*Snaps his head toward him*
Dev khanna
*Nods*
Yeah. Aradhya Sharma. The complete opposite of her sister.
Shaurya Chauhan
Aradhya... Beautiful name
*whispers*
Vikram Singhania
Innocent, soft, kind-hearted
*Grins, hands in pockets*
Vikram Singhania
*pauses for a moment*
Vikram Singhania
You could use her to get close to Tanya
*adds*
Shaurya Chauhan
What are you saying?
*Frowns*
Vikram Singhania
She’s close to Tanya. Befriend her. Work your way in.
*Shrugs casually *
Shaurya Chauhan
*Fists clench at Tanya’s name*
Shaurya Chauhan
*His eyes flick back to Aradhya disappearing in the distance, her soft laugh floating back*
Shaurya Chauhan
She’s... beautiful.
*Mutters, conflicted *
Vikram Singhania
All the more reason. She’s naive. Easy to approach
Shaurya Chauhan
I don’t know... it feels wrong
*feels uneasy, running a hand over his jaw*
Dev khanna
It’s just friendship. Nothing wrong with that. And Tanya will come easier through her. Trust us, this will work
*Smirks knowingly *
Shaurya Chauhan
*thinks deeply conflicting his inner self*
Shaurya Chauhan
Fine. I’ll do it
*Exhales sharply*
Vikram Singhania
*Exchange a victorious glance with dev*
Dev khanna
Good choice
*smirks back*
At that moment, Aradhya’s group approaches
Sanya
Come on, ask her out already!
*Teasing Aditya*
Aradhya Sharma
*walking behind them, hugging her books closely*
Meera
Stop it, Sanya.
*Laughing, pushing her glasses up*
Aradhya Sharma
*Eyes briefly meet Shaurya’s. She looks away, continuing with her friends*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Frozen, staring after her*
She’s so... different. *shakes his head, turning to his friends*
I’ll talk to her tomorrow
Sanya
*glances curiously at shaurya*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Barely notices — his gaze lingers only on Aradhya*
Shaurya Chauhan
I’ll make her my friend. And then, I’ll make Tanya mine.
*Mutters under his breath*

Chapter 3 — The Unexpected Encounter
The college courtyard buzzes with laughter
Sanya
Kabir, are you trying stand-up comedy now? *Teasing*
kabir
If it makes Aaradhya laugh, then why not?
*Shrugs winking*
Aradhya Sharma
*Lost in the chat, doesn’t notice the stone in her path*
Aradhya Sharma
*Stumbles, arms flailing*
kabir
*Lunges forward, panic in his eyes*
But before he reaches her, another hand catches her firmly by the waist. Aaradhya’s heart races as she looks up.
Shaurya Chauhan
*Stands there, holding her steady*
Aradhya Sharma
You— *Eyes wide, breathless*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Feels his chest tighten, her deep, soft eyes pulling him in*
Shaurya Chauhan
Are you okay?
*whispers intimately tightening his grip slightly*
Aradhya Sharma
*Blinks, regaining her composure and quickly tries to push him away*
Aradhya Sharma
Thank you, but I can handle myself *firm*
Shaurya Chauhan
Are you sure
*Still not letting go, eyes locked on her*
kabir
*Rushes over, pulling Aradhya protectively to his side, his face burning with frustration*
kabir
Hey! She said she’s fine! Don’t touch her again *Snaps*
Shaurya Chauhan
I was just helping.
*Glares back, jaw clenched*
Aradhya Sharma
*Quickly steps between them, her hands raised in calmness*
Aradhya Sharma
Kabir, it’s okay. He was just trying to help
*Soft but firm*
kabir
*Scowls at Shaurya one last time before turning to Aradhya*
kabir
Let’s go
*Smiles faintly*
Aradhya Sharma
*Looks at Shaurya*
Thanks again *polite*
Aradhya Sharma
*Turns to leave with her friends*
Shaurya Chauhan
*Watches and panic, then suddenly steps forward*
Shaurya Chauhan
Wait! *shouts*
