018: nicknames and compliments

-"Oh so you're awake now Ari?"

She heard a familiar voice say, he sat on the same bed as he had done when she first arrived in the glade.

-"Haha really funny."

She said softly when she realized he was recreating that scenario.

-"How long was I asleep for?"

He smirked.

-"Only five minutes, Jeff gave you something so you would wake up faster than last time."

He doze and eyebrow and smirked.

-"You stood no chance against me."

She scoffed at his flexing.

-"I'm sorry-"

-"Don't."

-"Don't what?"

She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

-"DON'T apologize, you do that waaaayyy to much Ari."

-"Sorry, do I?"

She said smirking and he walked up to her.

-"I know what the builders say about you, I'm not deaf. But I'm also not blind either, and I know for sure that your body is perfect."

He said dragging her up from the bed.

-"Oh and also take this."

Gally said handing her a pill, she swallowed with a tiny bit of water and they walked to her hut.

-"Now choose EXACTLY what you want to wear, don't think about if it's too short or too tight alright?"

She froze, -"You know I think so?"

He smiled, -"I know a lot-"

-"You barely knew what a period was!"

He threw his hands in the air.

-"Well I'm not a girl!"

She laughed, -"So you guys think about if your shorts are too short or too revealing every day?"

Aria said staring at his shorts, a bit too long...

-"Ehum don't get distracted yet."

  He said and she shook her head, her cheeks flushing red.

-"What do you think about this?"

She said and he smiled at the pants.

-"They're pretty."

-"Okay so not them."

He frowned, -"You're saying I don't have taste?"

-"Well you do since you choose me."

-"Good one."

Aria searched for another pair.

-"Aha! What do you think now?"

She said and spun around in her shorts that she wore when she arrived.

-"I forgot you had those, take them!"

She smiled.

-"Okay which one of these?" She said holding up a white and a black spaghetti straw shirts."

-"Take the black one so we're matching."

He said hoping she would agree.

-"Oh yesss girly!!"

She squeaked trying to embarrass him.

-"I get it that you want another girl, but don't make me wear bows and act like one."

-"That would be kind of cute actually, you, Minho, Ben and Newt wouldn't it?"

He put a hand over her mouth, -"Never say that again, thank you."

-"We'll see."

She mumbled.

-"Brownie you look amazing!"

Newt said when she walked up to them, Ben smiled at her outfit choice.

-"What's up with the nicknames, Blondie and Brownie?"

The duo looked at each other, -"It's cute isn't it?"

Newt nodded.

-"Wait, isn't that like a couple thing?"

Ben said interrupting, -"Or do you two also have?"

She scratched her neck.

-"I don't think you want to know them."

Gally cleared his throat looking away.

-"But I can say what you called me after the bonfire."

She squinted her eyes at him, -"Which one?"

He smirked teasingly, -"MD sounds familiar?"

She slapped a hand over his mouth, just like he had done in her hut earlier.

-"Oh don't you dare!"

She slowly removed her hand from mouth.

He smiled, -"Or what?"

-"Or I tell them what compliment you gave me?"

He frowned, -"What?"

-"You know, when you said I was so-"

-"Nevermind!"

He said and jumped on top of her, she fell on her back to the ground and he started tickling him.

-"Okay okay fine!"

She giggled but he didn't spare her.

-"Ben!!"

She squealed and he shook his head, laughing at them being so soft.

-"Newt!"

She tried but he also shook his head, satisfied with how happy he made her.
