Chapter one.
Blonde hair tied up into a messy bun, a five year old named Layla was playing infront of the TV giggling and laughing to the show she was meant to watch. The girl grew up into a fine nice lady when she was sixteen she embarked on a journey to find love with her neighbor of course Justin but Justin wasn't the one for her, she realised that much. She stopped looking after she got married to Brandon a few years later she gave birth to a boy and that was her love s********e of us look for love once or twice." said Aria grumbling and her best friend Vanessa laughed at her, "When will you stop looking at him?" Vanessa asked her friend who had a scowl on her face. "When will you get married?." scoffed Aria and Vanessa giggled. "We're still thirteen Aria relax." she said to her friend.
"You're right, still have more years t suffer in misery, look at that! She's totally inlove and he can't even see me." she grumbles fiddling with her hair and Vanessa laughed again. "Give it time" she said to her best friend and then Aria rolled her eyes. "I personally hate being like this." Aria says baffled. "Okay fine, let's go to classes now." says Vanessa exhausted knowing this was going to be a long day. The two best friends went to attend thier classes and soon after it was time to go home.
Aria is a thirteen year old black haired girl with green eyes and Vanessa is a blonde haired girl with brown eyes. These two were best friends since kindergarten and till primary school. Vanessa likes cake but Aria hates cake, Aria loves reading romantic novels and watches them and she has a crush on a senior in her school named Flynn meanwhile Vanessa is interested in a girl named Lara who happens to be the most introverted girl in thier entire school.
"Aria come on. We're going to be late." Vanessa says watching Aria wear her pink sweater, "Okay I'm done let's go before granny makes us clean the floors again." she says walking faster than Vanessa who was waiting for her. "I hate to say it but its mostly your fault that we end up cleaning the floors." says Vanessa through gritted teeth and Aria shrugs, " Sorry?" she says and Vanessa rolls her eyes. "If this is what it means to be best friends, I'd kindly like to quit right this instant." Vanessa says dryly and Aria laugs.
"You're not going anywhere." she says as they enter thier dance classes which is also Aria's grandma. "Gran - gran!." says Aria and granny looks at the both of them with a stern look on the face. "You're five minutes late, no floors today." she says and Vanessa breathed out heavily since she was holding her breath. "But we are going to dance more than once today." she continued, "Great." says Vanessa dryly and Aria giggled nervously
With that being said and done. They come out of ther after two hours of dancing. Vanessa limping." I should file you, leg insurance for this." she says glaring at the crawling Aria "Why me? She made us dance." Aria says huffing, "And I danced cause of you in the first place." says Vanessa through gritted teeth with sweat falling down her forehead and neck. "Oh my gosh... You said you wanted to Ness." replies Aria and Vanessa tries to strangle her.
"I wanted to do Karaté, okay ? But now I'm doing Taikwando with your grandma in her back studio and I hate every.. every single moment of it." she breathes out and Aria shuts her eyes getting Vanessa's point. They both go home in silence when Vanessa gets to her house she jumps to her bed and cries for the blessing of having a bed. Meanwhile Aria climbs the stairs on her way to her room. When she gets to her room she spreads her entire body to the floor like a star fish.
"Aria honey, what are you doing on the flo -" her big brother didn't get to finish his words cause of the shoe that Aria thew at him. "What the heck!" he said looking at her, "Shut up Kade." she says softly and Kade looks at her like a crazy person, "Are you normal in the head?"he asks her leaning on the door," No you confirmed that every year, now get out. "says Aria closing her eyes." No I won't. Mom wanted to say hi and she sent us winter clothes."he says to her and she sighs.
" Let me guess? She won't be able to be here on Christmas like every other year because of work or Wade needs to be taken care off? " scoffs Aria and Kade chuckles." Yes and no. She said that she wouldn't be able to make it cause granny wants her to go to Australia to find her brother aka our uncle Lucas. "he replies and walks away from her room. By the time she's eighteen doing her last year in high school a boy named Raphael gets transfered to her school and everyone is head over heels but not her.
" Vanessa? "says Aria to her friend her hair let down and parted," What? "snaps back Vanessa." Okay? Uhm do you think I can be able to dogde studying with a guy tomorrow? " Aria asks casually and Vanessa rolls over her chair to look at her," Depends on the guy. Did Schwartz invite you again? "she asks defeated." Maybe? Okay fine yes he did and I'm not going not unless he has free food. " says Aria sounding uninterested." Go. " says Vanessa and Aria lifts a brow.
" Really?. " she asks carefully" You know i have issues now get the f**k out before I drive this pencil through your beautiful heart. "Vanessa says calmly playing with the pencil in her hands without being told twice Aria leaves her. On her way to Shwartz she trips and falls on the stairs and her fall lands on clean shoes tht was what she thought. And she stood up" Oh sorry. " she says standing up to clean herself." No problem. "replies," I don't always fall. "she says and when she stares up at Raphael he smiles."I don't care." he said with his stern voice.
"What?." Aria blinked a few times after asking that question and he sighed his hands landing on his face as if trying to make a five year old understand. "I don't care." he said again and this time he stepped back and moved away from her and he continued to walk his path. She laughed hysterical "how rude, I'll... Whatever." she said and picked up her books and she ran off to Schwartz.
"Hi, you came faster than I intended this week." Schwartz said eyeing her every move and she smiled softly, "Well I mean Dylan you give out the best answers and being tutored by you is amazing." she said laughing softly in the end. "Great, Vanessa ain't joining us I guess." he deadpanned and flipped through the pages casually, "She uhm has a date. Shall we continue?." she asked him sliding her hair behind her ear and he nodded.
Dylan Schwartz is her tutor and crush at the same time, he's the smartest kid ever and also her brother's best friend. "Good, logitriams." he said and she quickly paged her book. The lesson went on and she was really enjoying his voice, "Okay, you're good with the basics and also the most of it by the time the exams come up you'll be sorted out. Have a nice day." he said packing his stuff and she nodded her head while packing her own stuff.
He walks to the door and so did she but he paused on his steps and her forehead hit his back," Ouch, I'm sorry about that. "she said while rubbing her forehead and he bent his back to her short height to see her forehead where he bumped her or she bumped herself on his back." Ariana? "he called her name and sighed," You're a nutcase you know that? You're so tiny I wish I could hide you from the world cause when I see you, I see my little sister. "he said softly and he smiled showing his dimples.
" Let's head out for coffee with your brother. "he says and before she can answer he fixed his back and he walked away to his destination. She sighed," If only I could be not your little sister Dylan." she says and RER Phone buzzed with a text from Vanessa
