ARYA SAVIER

I never even realized what the heck they were doing to me, not until they dressed me up with a beautiful white gown perfect for a goddess and when they shoveled me a Six-paged script of the lines of Aphrodite.

Apparently, the original Aphrodite fell from the stairs hours ago and they were struggling to find a replacement. Jadey and Lieu were busy repairing the props and designing the stage so they weren't able to contact me at all, up until the point when the teacher wanted to cancel everything because of the missing Aphrodite. My good, GOOD friends suddenly remembered that they had a FRIEND that was good at memorizing stuff- me.

There was no problem at all when it came to memorizing the lines, the big problem was... I am playing as Aphrodite.

Aphrodite was just the goddess of love - and Seduction. S-F*ck*ng Seduction. There were scenes and lines that I'm very uncomfortable with. Even my gown seemed more revealing than everything I've worn in my entire life!

I wanted to spank Jadey and Lieu for being the GOOD friends that they were, who only remembers a friend when it was time to get her in trouble. They were grinning from ear to ear and said nobody fitted the role more than I did. Why can't it be Jadey instead?

I'll just, you know, remove my brains for a while and let her have the memorizing capability while she's playing the role.

After minutes of unbearable make-up sessions and smells of hair chemicals and burning, I found myself staring at the mirror with wide eyes. I couldn't even recognize myself. My long hair went down to big, gentle curves and my face was totally unrecognizable from my make-up. I look like a gorgeous woman.

"Oh. My. god! You look so beautiful! No erase that please...You look like a goddess!!" Jadey squealed with delight and almost hugged me if not for the make-up artist warning her that the act would ruin my dress.

"Wow Arya...You look...heavenly..." Lieutenant was stunned and I laughed.

"Gee...thanks for boosting my ego guys, I bet your atoning for putting me in this position in the first place," I rolled my eyes at them and they both laugh.

"Everyone in your positions!!" The teacher shouted and it made us all jumped. My heart beat furiously, I've never been in a play before so I'm having little jitters plus I've never really practiced with others. I just hoped that I wouldn't make a fool of myself in front of others.

"So...who's the lucky Paris?" I asked out of the blue.

"Ma'am! He's all done!" A perky looking junior which have a long black hair and has a beautiful face showed up out of the blue dragging with him a...

My thoughts stopped as I stared at the person she was dragging with her. All the people in the room gasped, Jadey even squealed.

It was Brian Christian Harvard dressed up in a Greek cloth of a prince. He looked gorgeous and his black hair was a bit spiky but not so, and he was rubbing his neck in a shy manner. He was clearly embarrassed of his attire which is a bit revealing of his white chest. He was also still, wearing his usual earrings on his left ear which didn't match with his attire but entirely suited his handsome face.

Sh*t! Did I just said handsome? Get your brains together!

"Oh my! What a sexy Paris you've got for us Natalie!" The teacher seemed to lick her lips a bit. What the heck? Did the original Paris stumbled in the stairs too?
