Are people in love or just in love with the idea a "love"?
Its a question we all have asked atleast once in our lives to ourselves , so did Ross . Ross was one of those guys whom you generally ignore until and unless you have no other option . By fate or by teacher's will whatever you consider Ross was seated next to Diane . Diane , was an introvert converted into an extrovert , she was the person whom anyone felt comfortable talking to . Ross being his awkward self started blabbering and she just smiled , the class ended and she headed straight for the door . Ross gathered all his courage and went behind her to ask her number , she gave a skeptical look, and hesitantly gave her number , Ross gathered his wits and explained that as they were seated together and are obviously going to be partners having each others phone numbers will make it easier to exchange notes , her phone started ringing and she bid her goodbye .
Next day they again met but this time for practicals and not just any practicals but physics . Physics was Ross's worst enemy and so he didn't even pretend to be a nerd about it , he let Diane take the lead . Diane was smart atleast Ross thought she was smart she started the experiment instantly and continuously explained Ross each step. Ross liked this , she didn't treat him like a retard which of course he was not , he was just weak in physics .The practical ended soon and for the first time all their results were correct and the professor was also impressed . After being dismissed they didn't go their own ways rather they decided to go for a walk along the campus . Diane had never roamed the campus "after hours " although she always wanted to , Ross being the wanderer considered colllege "after hours " was the best time to be in college . Ross showed Diane all around the campus and at the end of the tour decided to take her to the terrace . Ross was actually feeling happy about sharing this experience with her , he himself was surprised because he doesn't let anyone wander along , he prefers solitude most of the time . They reached the terrace and the Sun was setting making it the perfect panoramic veiw , Diane just stared and was just admiring the view , Ross was admiring her , he was enthralled by the calmness of her face and also by the smirk which she was trying to hide . Then she looked right at him , she caught him staring at her but she didn't scowl , rather she just fixed her gaze on him and he also slowly fixed his gaze on her . He saw her saw , not like all the other times he has seen them but really saw them , they were a direct doorway to her soul , he could see the darkness and he wondered what she could see in his eyes , probably his shitty past and the ass of a person he has become . They just gazed at each other in utter silence , the Sun was already past the horizon and they realized it was time to leave but neither of them wanted to . Suddenly they hear a thump on the terrace door , Scared they just hid behind the walls , a man entered after bolting the door open and was calling them out , as he suspected someone had sneaked , neither of them made any sound . They curled up against each other to avoid being seen , after a few minutes the man left and they decided to leave . Slowly they went near the door , opened it a bit and scouted the visible range it was all clear and they proceeded , once they came down the stairs they dashed out of the campus . After they both were out of the campus , they stopped to catch their breath and broke into laughter ,Ross was happy after a long time , he had forgotten the existence of happiness but Diane maybe that last thread which can pull him into the light . Soon they gathered their wits and bid their goodbyes and parted ways .
