SIX. THINGS ARE BETTER

Nessa look for a moment at me.

"Ari, did you hear that, Bryce didn't slept at home."

"No, that's the first word, we still haven't made peace."

"Yes, of course. No fights today he's anyway not here, he is hanging out with Addison."

I tried to smile at her to make sure I am happy with it, but I know I am sad about it. I decided to scroll thru Tiktok and see what is going on there and then this:

I feel how my cheeks get wet. I think about what happened last night. I put my phone on its face and walk out of the room not saying anything.

NESSA'S POV:
I look over to Aria seeing she is scrolling thru Tiktok but for a moment she stops, tears running down from her cheek. She's puts her phone down at walk out of the room. I have no idea what is going on. I decide to pick her phone up seeing the Tiktok video of Bryce and Addison. I get confused, she was okay with the fact that I told her that Bryce are hanging out with Addison but she's sad about this. I really don't understand, there must be something she's not telling me. I decide to call Josh.

*Calling Josh*

Josh:Yes, Babe what's up.

Nessa: Aria was in tears before she left the room, could you please come up to here, there's more.

Josh: Yes, of course I will be there. Just a minute.

Nessa: Sure, thanks.

I put the phone down, hearing Josh comes up the Stairs. Josh enters the room.

"I think you need to sit down."

"Yes, what happened to Aria."

"I told her a few minutes ago that Addison and Bryce was hanging out, she seemed fine with that but she started to cry about this video about them."

I hand Josh Aria's phone so he can see what video I am talking about. Josh give me that look.

"I just think she's not hiding stuff from us."

Josh just finished his sentence as Aria walks in.

"Aria, please explain, why you were crying at this Tiktok video." As I look at her.

She looks down at us with sadness in her eyes not saying a word.

"You can tell us anything, if something is up it will stay between the 3 of us." Josh says

She give us a light smile and closes the door.

"Yes, there is some stuff that is going on, that I haven't said, but promise me this is not going anywhere."

"Yes, of course we promise." We both say.

"So here is what happened yesterday after me and Jaden's date at Starbucks, I got home and suddenly I started to cry about the fact that I miss him and didn't spent time with him on our special day."

"Yes, I heard you guys are knowing each other for a year now, Bryce told me yesterday about it."

"He did? But I decided I couldn't deal with it and I called him and few minutes later he arrived at my house. We decided to watch a movie like 30 minutes in the movie, we started like kissing crazy. I went for a shower, after my shower, I replied to you Nessa and went to straight to bed cuddling with Bryce he went home early in the morning. "

Aria finishes her sentence and I couldn't help but to smile about that. She and Bryce, I didn't imagine.

" You told me you didn't know that he slept at home, why didn't you tell us in the first place. " I say as I started to laugh.

" I didn't say a word because me and Bryce wanted to keep it a secret, especially if Addison finds out about it there is going to be drama again. "

ARIA POV:
I actually don't care what they would think about it right now but I thought long about this I just see Bryce as a best friend, honestly I don't want to lose my best friend now. I get up from where I was sitting and walk out, down the stairs. As I reach the bottom of the stairs, Bryce walks in. I run to him and hug him tight but it feels like everyone is looking at us but I really don't care at the moment.

"Long time no see." He says as he pull away from the hug.

"Yes, darling." I say in a British accent.

I make sure nobody is staring at us, then I pull him aside.

"We have a problem."

"What happened?" Bryce says with look in his eyes.

"Josh and Nessa found out."

"It's fine, but remember if it comes out we have to deny it."

"Yes, of course, but for the record I just want to stay friends, nothing more."

"Yes, me neither. I don't want to lose my best friend again."

I smile at him and then walk away to join the rest of the sway boys on the couch. I soon I get on the couch everyone stop their conversation and look at me.

"Why you guys looking at me." I said nervously.

Jaden just stand up and sit next to me.

"We are just shocked that you and Bryce are hanging out like nothing happened." Jaden explain and everyone agree.

"Well, I decide not to ignore him anymore and we really missed each other." I say to answer everyone's question.

"That's good to hear." Josh say from behind us.

I decide to sit next to jaden on the floor. At this moment everyone was happy and then suddenly the door flies open and Addison walks in. The Sway boys start to cover me with a blanket and pillows to make sure Addison doesn't see me.

"Where is bryce?" Addison says looking to see if she sees him on the couch.

"He is probably upstairs." Jaden says fast.

Addison looks at Jaden and then to the rest of the boys.

"Is Aria with Bryce?"

"No, she's not here." Griffin says to make her leave faster.

She start to smile and walk upstairs, when she was not visible, I get out of the pillow/blanket thing they made to hide me.

"Thank you, guys." I say while laughing at them.

"No problem." Griffin and Jaden say both on the same time.
