She's Full Of Mystery

[8] - My pals and your gals

Pretend that's Aria

✔
Black's POV

We got a text from Gray, inviting us to his favorite place and said we should wait for him outside. "Black, those are what's her name again? Ariel? Those are her friends right?"

It's funny how long we've been in this school and still don't know their names, but one thing's for sure, the girl with the long hair is our S.C president.

"It's Aria" I replied"nope, I totally remember it was Ariel" I chuckle. I can tell Blue's eavesdropping on the girls since he's quiet and I join him

"Where is he?"
"I don't know! He said to wait for him outside"
"Well text him, mosquitos are eating me," the girl with short hair said.

"Maddy, stop being so dramatic you're not gonna die!"
"Ugh! Unbelievable" the girl who I guess is Maddy cross her arms.

"It's weird, why are they whispering," Blue asks me and I just give him an I-don't-know look.

"There you guys are!" Gray said "finally!" We all said in unison and look at each other "wait, what?" We said again in unison.

"This is fucking creepy," the S.C president mumbled "I agree" Blue replied and Gray just chuckles. "You know what, I'll explain inside, yeah?"

We sit at the VIP table with the two girls and I can tell that they're not comfortable because the looks on their faces give it away. "Don't worry I just want us to chill and bond okay?" Gray said calmly.

"Why us two? And why didn't you invite Aria? Do you know that we have a spa appointment and we canceled it just for this?" The president snapped.

"Chill, I invited Aria, she just needs to do something," Gray said completely ignoring the other questions. "I told you it's Aria" I whisper to Blue "nope, it's totally Ariel," he said matter-of-factly

"Wait here and relax, order something you like, it's on me. I'll just go backstage" Gray said and leaves us. "So girls--" Blue starts talking.

This is gonna be a long night

Aria's POV

"You ready? They're outside in the VIP table" Gray pops out of nowhere I was about to reply but I was caught off guard when I hear him laugh.

"Why the world are you wearing a wig? And where did you find it?" He continues to laugh but I ignore what he said.

"wait, what do you mean?" I ask with my eyes squinting "my pals and your gals are outside waiting" he said matter-of-factly.

"Did you tell I was going to sing?" I ask "no, I told them you were just doing something and that you'll catch up" I sigh in relief

"I'm totally gonna wear this" I mumbled but he can hear it since it's quiet and I wear my mask. I always bring one you know, for emergencies.

"Seriously, where did you get that wig?" He asks "I was looking around when I saw some costumes and got this and don't worry, this is still in a wrap when I saw it" I hear a sigh of relief from him

"Why would you wear those?"

"Because I don't want any attention, and from the sound that I'm getting from outside, this place is packed with students," I said and I just got an 'okay' from him.
