"Obviously, nothing's gonna come out of it," Hope started to ramble, "I mean, I may never see him again. And nobody wants a phone thing. Though I do like the sound of his voice. It's low and smart-sounding and kind of soothing. And his eyes are, like, this green-gray color that's not really a color, you know? Like, they're green when he wears green, and then-" Hope suddenly stopped and had a disgusted look on her face, "oh god, who am I right now?"
"You're my best friend, my normal teenage best friend," Alaia chuckled before winking jokingly at her.
"I'm so sorry I didn't even think about everything going on with you and Raf," Hope said.
"It's alright, I'll just go talk to him today and we'll see," Alaia smiled softly as she looked out of her window.
Hope went downstairs as Alaia wanted to check on Alaric, she hasn't talked to him in a while and wanted to see if he was alright.
"Ric, How did everything go with the nymph who wasn't a nymph-" Alaia started to talk as she walked into the headmasters' office, only to see a beautiful woman with long dark hair in the room.
"Oh, uh hi I'm-" Alaia started before she saw Alaric's disapproving expression, "not welcome here, you have a good day ma'am."
"wait- Laia, you're pretty much the only one who can keep a secret, I need your help," Alaric told her as she chuckled, "leading a double life finally paid off huh?"

Hope promised Rafael she would teach him how to waltz, as they walk down the stairs together Rafael decides to speak up.
"You're messing with me," he tells her.
Hope chuckles, "You think this is bad? You know it's only gonna get worse, right? Lizzie Saltzman has been planning her sweet 16 since she was five. You probably should've thought twice before asking to be her date."
Rafael looks irritated as he responds, "Well, I didn't ask her. All I know is that I can't let her down now."
"Why?" Hope questions curiously.
