Ariellelynn's POV | Arielle•lynn|
June 30 • LA📍

I'm sitting by the pool, my legs dangling

in the cool water, feeling the gentle

ripples brush against my skin. The sun

Is warm on my face and shoulders, a

comforting blanket of heat that

contrasts with the refreshing chill of

the pool. A soft breeze drifts by,

carrying the faint scent of chlorine and

blooming flowers, rustling the leaves of

nearby trees. I close my eyes, letting the

sunlight dance on my eyelids, and listen

to the distant sounds of laughter and

splashing water.

The moment of pure relaxation, a

perfect blend of warmth and coolness,

was soon interrupted by two female

influencers flashing their phones in one

another's faces. Their argument pierced

the tranquil atmosphere.

" I thought we were friends bitch, why

would you go behind my back and

text my man, hoe?" Serenity yelled her

voice laced with anger and frustration.

" He texted me first, yall weren't even

serious." Lena fired backed, her tone

sharp and defiant.

Their faces were flushed with anger

and irritation, their loud exchange

drew everyone's attention. A few of the

other influencers here managed to

de-escalate to the situation. I sighed,

dipping my toes further in the water,

trying to recapture the calm that had

been abruptly shattered. I noticed a

figure approaching from the direction

of the argument. He moved with

effortless grace, his sculpted physique

evident even from a distance. As he

drew closer, I couldn't help but

admire the way his toned abs glistened

in the sunlight.

"Hey, i'm Dante." He said with a warm

smile, his voice soothing and inviting

I returned the smile, grateful for the

distraction. "Hi, i'm Ariellelynn, but

everyone calls me Ari," I responded

extending my hand, his grip was firm

yet gentle, sending a tingle down my

spine. "Nice to meet you Ari, mind if

I join you?".

"Not at all," I replied, gesturing for him

to take a seat. He settled in beside me.

"So what brings you to this oasis of

drama?". Dante asked

"My sister, Aniyah, basically forced me

to attend, she said something about

enjoying myself before it's time to head

back home," I replied with a chuckle.

"Where you from?" He asked.

"The beautiful island of Jamaica," I

responded. As we chatted and

exchanged stories, I found myself

drawn to his magnetic presence.

Despite the chaos that seemed to follow

influencers, there was something

refreshingly genuine about him.
