real life !
eliza sat in her dressing room, beginning to remove her jewellery that she had wore for the show. she was waiting for lyra to arrive, as she'd usually help eliza with hanging her outfits up and making sure everything was ready and in the right place for the next show.
a few minutes later a knock sounded at the door, "come in!" eliza yelled, looking at herself in the mirror.
lyra opened the door, "hey," she said, eliza smiled and turned to her best friend, "i've got something for you!" lyra told eliza, a grin wide on her face.
"what?" eliza asked in confusion, lyra stepped into the dressing room and then turned back to the door. eliza stayed looking at her in confusion.
eliza's eyes widened and her jaw dropped, she couldn't believe who she was face to face with. "nick?" eliza's screamed, "holy fuck!" she jumped out her chair and ran to nick, hugging the boy immediately, "what are you doing here?" she then moved onto matt, who smiled at her and complimented her on the show.
she then noticied chris, but she didn't want to really hug him, "hi..." eliza said awkwardly.
"hey," chris nodded, acknowledging eliza.
the two awkwardly looked at each other. eliza was never good in situations like this. she hated when she'd argue with people. when she was younger, if she'd had an argument with her mom, she'd write her an apology letter and post it under her bedroom door.
the other three in the room, also awkwardly looked between eliza and chris, then looked at one another, feeling as embarrassed as they did, with the whole situation. "anyways! surprise!" nick restarted the lively energy, throwing his hands up and smiling.
"since when? when did this all happen?"
"for like a month," lyra responded, going to sit down on the sofa with matt in the dressing room.
"it was mine and lyras idea," matt explained, "chris was nearly dying from trying to keep it a secret, right chris?"
chris folded him arms and nodded slightly, letting out a grunt in response, to which eliza sighed at.
chris was truly beautiful, it pained eliza to say it, because he wasn't hers and it felt like he never would be, not when he was acting like this.
