Act IX
Aris looks out as she hears footsteps. Astro walks in the room and she sees this smile in the dark, she giggles.
Aris: hiiii
astro: aye, how are you love?
Aris: im okay
astro: here you goShe giggles excitedly, a gleaming smile is stretched across her face.
Aris: how was the rest of your trip?
astro: went well, thanks for asking
Aris: you be actin like no one asks you how your doing!
astro: they dont, or maybe i think they dont really care. you do though.
Aris: hm. i do?
*she laughs*Astro takes off his clothes and goes to lay down.
Aris: want me to leave?
astro: you can stay, im not gon touch you
*Aris laughs*
astro: you wish i did thoughAris rolls her eyes and lays back down.
She pops into a dream where Astro is holding her tightly, she likes it. It feels warm and comforting. she snuggles up in his arms, until the sun starts to rise and the grip gets tighter, like shes suffocating, she tries to break free, but her arms disappear. She turns to look at him and it wasn't astro, it was this big dark energy, not like bad energy, just an energy that was afraid to let go. When Aris sees this, she didn't wanna let go either, she holds on more. A tear leaves her eye and she wakes up relieved. They were no where near each other in his king size bed, he was fast asleep, and turned the other way.
One night all his friends take a trip in the city night life. They get food and party at different clubs, get bottle service everywhere, Astro's names on the screen in big lights and they're always playing his music when hes there. The crowd rocks out singing and turning up to his music word for word. Aris gets chills from hearing everyone in a trance to his songs, like they knew it unconsciously.
All of astro's friends offer her drugs and she takes whatever they give her. Shes mixes uppers and downers, her body is all over the place. They get back to the mansion and he leads her up to his room because Aris is falling everywhere laughing and can barely stand up straight. He lays her on the bed and she starts laughing uncontrollably at him.
astro: you like to get fucked up? innit?
she looks up at him clueless, not knowing what to say, and he touches her thighs, she moves by reaction, his cold hands startle her.
astro: im not gon fuck you
*she looks down confused*
astro: im gonna fuck your mind first....
*he puts her chin to look up at him*
Aris: hm. what does that mean astro?
astro: youll seeWhen Aris is alone and goes to look for astro, hes with his friends. In the studio, playing games or chess, talking business, shooting dice, more gambling, boxing, etc
She didn't always want to be alone, so she starts getting to know everyone. They all seem the same to her. They're all ragers and hot heads, but pretty chill if you dont make them mad. One thing for sure, they ride for one another, while they were at the club yesterday they stomped some dude out because he was talking trash. Astro didn't lay a hand on anyone. They didn't talk to her much, but she was in the room, observing and listening.
