My first installment of this series wasn't that famous but I've tried to improve myself and hope this chapter is a better read. I found it a little rushed so added some details into it. Hope you like it!! I want to thank honeywldcat for helping me with the editing. Without her help, I'd be nowhere.

The rest of the days went by and Pari hadn't even noticed. Terence's company made her days pleasant and time passed without her knowledge. He was a great guy. His family was rich but he didn't act like a snob at all, yet he was so easy going and smart at the same time. Every time she had problems regarding her assignments, he was there to help her. They had become good friends so quickly and if for some reason he didn't attend the classes, she'd feel bored. She was really getting addicted to his company and she really didn't mind it.
One Wednesday, she was sitting idly at the restaurant counter. It was a weekday and hence the place wasn't as hectic, so she was pretty much free the whole day. In these few weeks, he'd started calling her 'P' as well, and she told him she'd call him 'T'. But she called him Terence anyways. The day was ending and she was sitting there with her laptop in front of her, studying her class notes when she felt two hands slide over her eyes.
"Guess who??" Someone whispered in her ear and it made her shiver.
He has no idea what havoc he creates with his hands, does he?
She thought to herself.
"Get off, Terence. I'd recognize you even if I was blindfolded and was standing a hundred yards away." She said trying her best to cover the huskiness in her voice.
"How'd you do that, P? Hell, you're good at spoiling surprises." He warbled with a mock pout on his face and when she cuffed him lightly, he smiled.
"Aww... that hurt!" He joked.
"So, how'd you find me?" She enquired, offering him a seat beside hers.
"Not a difficult thing for a pro. I've been good at finding stuff since I was a kid."
"Oh! So that's what I am.
Stuff
." She said, her face serious.
"N-no that's not what I meant." He stammered and she let out a loud guffaw. He stared at her, a hurtful expression on his face and she sobered up.
"Ummm... sorry, but I couldn't help it. I'm pretty good at giving surprises too, you know."
"Ah well, forget it." He said waving his hands and then added with a heart-thumping smile, "You look good in this dress. I say, I must see you often in skirts." And she blushed.
They had exams in two weeks and after that, the good ole' holidays. Yuppidy-doo!! She thought. She'd get to go back home for Christmas!! So they sat there talking about the important chapters until it was closing time. He then let her change and drove her home.
"So I shall see you tomorrow? Oh, by the way, Prof. Tam's pairing up students for a special project. That would cover up 65% of our final marks. Care to pair up with me?"
"How did you get that bit of information?" She asked, amused.
"Well... I've got connections, you know." He replied with his award winning grin.
"Yah right... sure I'll pair with you."
She got in and dropped her coat on the kitchen chair. As she made her way to her room, she could hear a muffled moan coming from Elsie's room. She rolled her eyes and smiled to herself and went to bed. She'd have to talk about this with Elsie tomorrow.
The next day, she discussed about the flow of guys in the apartment with Elsie.
"You have no idea on what you are missing, P. Try it once and you'll be addicted to it for life. Fuckin' is well... Fuckin' incredible!!" Was the only answer she got.

She had taken a leave from her work for her examinations. As she was the nicest girl there, she got it without any problem. She was expected back only after the Chinese New Year, so she had all the time to prepare for the examinations. Elsie too was busy with her biology group. My my, two weeks in the library alone with Terence. Gods almighty up above, save her. She had no idea how she was going to do that. She had promised herself she would not fall in love until after graduation, but fate had other plans for her. They used the study rooms in the library to study. There would be piles of books around and Pari read out notes while Terence typed them off. Anybody who saw them would be sure they were in love.
Even Terence was having similar thoughts. He wondered how he'd be able to keep his hands off her the whole time. They weren't officially together but the feelings were present for sure. They were together almost everyday. One week of time spent in the library and he was getting restless. He was tired of fantasizing about her with him, his lips on hers as he made her cry out in bliss again and again. He was fed up of waking from dreams about her and having to jack himself off every morning. He had to put an end to his miseries; he had to find whether she felt the same way about him as well. Elsie could see the change on Pari as well.
"Me thinks someone's hiding some vital info from me. Is me correct?" she asked on the last day of her project.
"Urrrmmm..."
"Spit it out missy. I ain't got the whole day for you." She scolded.
"As you know Terence and I got paired up. Welll..."
"Weeellll.... What??" She snapped impatiently.
