Chapter 9:

-DAY OF SNOWBALL-

"Hey Baby." "Hey Zane. What's up?" "Oh nun just got these two tickets to snowball. One for me and one for...you." "Mee?" "Yeah. Aria would you like to be my date to snowball? Unless.. You have someone already that I don't know about?" "Yesss Zane and no. Who else would I have besides my perfect, handsome, funny and cute boyfriend." I hug and kiss Zane. OMG! My crush ever since middle school first asked me out about a month ago and now has asked me to snowball. Could this day get any better. "Great so I'll pick you up around 8. Cool?" "Yes. That's perfect." "Alright see you later princess." Omg! Omg! I need to go straight to the mall after school... with Mikala! Where is she? "Hey Arii girl." "Hey Mikala! Just the person I was looking for. How would you like to go to shopping with me after school for snowball?" "Someone asked you? Was it Hayton!" "Mmm no someone better... it was Zane. He asked me and I said yes!" "Good for you Ari." "Mikala please don't be mad at me. We are dating too by the way." "I know and I'm not mad." Mikala's not mad. For real? "Really?" "Yeah. I am really happy for you and I think you deserve someone who loves you. Over these past weeks and month I have seen Zane. He has really kept himself together and has did nothing but make you happy." "Awwww. Thanks Mikala and he is I promise. This is why you are my best friend." "I know and that's what bestfriends are for. But you know if he breaks your heart he's dead." (laughs) "Oh yeah. I know." (We both laugh)

"Hold up guys. Hello?" "Hey Crystal it's me Mikala. Zane has asked her already to snowball. She just told me." "Great! Our plan is working so far. I just sent Hayton to ask her." "Alright great." "See you tonight Mikala." "Yeah you too and hey Crystal? Look pretty." (laughs) "You know I will and you too Crystal. Tonight is going to be a big night."

"Hey you ready." "Always as ever." "ARIA! Can I talk to you for a minute?" "I'll be in the car k Ari?," Mikala said. "Hey Hayton. What's up?" "Um I was wondering if you had a date for snowball tonight. I know it's last minute and everything and if you don't can I go with you?" "Um sorry Hayton I already do. Sorry. Hopefully I see you tonight?" "Yeah maybe." "Well I gotta go. Bye."

"I see the plan worked. Good work Hayton. Now let's get ready for tonight. You ready?" "I was born ready Crystal."

"Wow. There are so many dresses to choose from. What do you think about this one Mikala?" "It's nice but I don't like that strap right there." "Yeah me too." "Hey Ari...what about this dress?" It was a turquoise medium height dress. It had some clear white flowers on it. It showed some skin but it was beautiful. "Ari? Is it nice or too much?" "I think it's...PERFECT!" "You like it?" "Yes Mikala! You look so nice in it." "Thank you Ari! Now, let's find you the perfect dress."
