Scene 1: The Music Room – Dev & Aavira
Aavira sat on the edge of the dusty old piano bench, alone — or so she thought.
A soft laugh echoed from behind the curtain.
Dev stepped out, leaning casually against the wall, his messy hair falling over his forehead. “You do realize this isn’t the dance room, right?”
She turned, raising a brow. “I wasn’t dancing.”
He smiled. “But you looked like you were escaping something. That counts.”
Aavira let out a breath. “Music rooms are peaceful. They don’t judge.”
Dev tilted his head. “Neither do I.”
Their eyes locked for a brief second. Calm. Warm. Not flirtatious, just… human.
He added, “If Aarav gives you trouble, tell me. Or I’ll break his guitar strings.”
Aavira smirked. “Pretty sure that would start a war.”
Dev winked. “Some wars are worth it.”
Before she could respond, voices approached. Dev gave her a knowing look and disappeared, leaving Aavira to face the firestorm.

Scene 2: Collision – Aarav & Aavira
The door swung open with force.
Aarav Singhania entered — cold gaze, black hoodie, storm in his eyes.
Aavira’s hand brushed over her star bracelet. Aarav noticed.
“You look like you own the place,” she said without looking at him.
He chuckled darkly. “Because I do.”
Aavira stood. “In your dreams, Rockstar.”
Aarav stepped closer. “You think you’re clever, don’t you?”
“I don’t think,” she said coolly, “I know.”
Their words cut like knives.
But it wasn’t just the fight. It was the heat. The tension. The proximity.
Aarav’s hand brushed past her wrist, grazing the bracelet. He stared at it for a second too long.
“Funny,” he said, voice low, “how one weak thread can hold so much emotion.”
Aavira stepped back, instantly protective. “Don’t touch that.”
He leaned closer, his breath brushing her ear. “Then don’t tempt me.”
She shoved him away.
Fire burned in both their eyes.

Scene 3: The Warning
The next day, the music room turned battlefield.
Aarav had forgotten his phone. When he returned to get it, he froze — hearing voices.
Hidden behind the curtain, he heard Aavira telling Nikita:
> “This bracelet… it's the only thing I have left from my parents. I don’t even know why I’m saying this… maybe because I’m tired. Tired of pretending I’m okay.”
Aarav clenched his fists. A smirk curved on his lips.
> “Perfect,” he whispered. “Let’s see how long you hold your strength.”

Scene 4: Inferna6’s Stage
Next day, campus was buzzing.
Aarav walked straight toward Aavira, bracelet hanging between his fingers.
“Looking for this?”
Her eyes widened. “Give it back.”
He held it just out of reach. “Earn it.”
“What the hell is wrong with you?”
“Everything you’re not ready to handle.”
He gave her a series of impossible tasks across campus. Clean the studio floor. Fetch coffee. Cancel a meeting. Silly, demeaning things. All in front of people. Inferna6 stood nearby — laughing, mocking.
Dev remained silent, uncomfortable.
Finally, after all that humiliation — Aarav tossed the bracelet at her feet.
“You don’t deserve this. Just like you don’t deserve to stand beside me.”
He stomped it.
A soft crack. The bracelet shattered.
Aavira stared. Her eyes welled up.
She didn’t cry. She looked up — not broken, but burning.
“You think this makes you powerful?” she whispered.
“I don’t think. I know,” Aarav mocked.
Her voice rose. “No. You’re not powerful. You’re just… empty.”
The whole campus watched.
She stepped forward.
> SLAP.
The sound echoed like thunder.
“You want to be called heartless?” Aavira said in a shaking voice. “Fine. You win. You are heartless. A cold, hollow flame pretending to burn.”
Aarav didn’t flinch. He stared at her.
“I am,” he said. “I am heartless. And don’t you forget that.”
Laughter followed from the others. Except Dev — he didn’t laugh.
Aavira walked away, shoulders stiff, eyes fierce.

Scene 5: End Credits
Dev picked up a broken star charm from the floor. Silently, he tucked it into his pocket.
Some stars shatter.
But the fire they leave behind?
It burns louder.
