(Lilah's POV)

Its Monday and our show is due on this Saturday. So we have to prepare all our props and stuff and also the dress fittings are to be done by Wednesday. Well be practicing on Thursday and Friday and if everything goes well, the show would be a blast.

We have half day allotted for our preparations this whole week. After the lunch, I, Xav, Stella and Dylan gathered in the auditorium. We saw different banners and posters spread across the stage and floor. There were boxes of paints and brushes and remaining backdrops which had to be painted. So we quickly got to work.

Honestly, I was happy about the whole Dylan and Stella scene as me and Dyl had warmed up to each other and I knew he also liked Stella as much but was trying to sort out things in his life before involving Stella. We had a little talk about everything this morning and Im glad for both of them.

I was busy with my thoughts and painting the backdrop when I felt something slid down my back and I looked up. Stella was standing there with a brush in her hand and the paint dropped down on me and she hadnt noticed this yet because she was talking to Dylan.

I then picked up my brush and brushed it on her leg down her knee because she was wearing a dress today. And she turned to glare at me and shot for me hot in her heels.

Hey, dont come at me. You started this whole fiasco, I said.

Dont you dare say that you just painted my leg, bitch she shouted running behind me.

What the hell, just wash it off. I said finding Xavier and hiding behind him.

Stella picked up a jar filled with dirty paint water to throw at me but it landed up straight on Xavs face as he suddenly turned to see what was going on.

A fuming Xavier then ran behind Stella as his White t shirt was now completely soaked and dirty.

Stella, you are DEAD meat now. He said and I was busy laughing my ass off seeing the reaction of Xavier and a very confused Dylan standing idle of the two rotating around him. Xavier then picked up the Paint brush dipped it in paint and threw it towards Stella but it landed on the head of some other child working with us.

And thats when Dylan shouted Paint fight and there was paint everywhere on the stage and the floor. We all ducked behind the table but Dylan was too late because he was also completely drained in paint now.

Soon Miss. Montez came in and shouted, What the hell is going on?

We got up and pointed fingers at each other but a child threw paint on her from the back and I being the great person I am for not being able to hold my laughter in such situations, started laughing.

And everybody glared at me while we ended up in a Detention for the next coming days till the play and an apology from each child for ruining the place. We also had to prepare the props which we so faithfully spoiled.

I on the other hand was sure about catching a cold because I had to shower for almost 2-3 hour to scrape that paint of me. Today was stupidly amazing and I felt lively after so long. These friends of mine were actually bringing out the real me now and I was afraid of letting down my walls but with them it seemed just fine.

As expected the next morning, I was busy sneezing my eyes and nose red as hell. The entire day went by with me being called Rudolph the reindeer and now we are all gathered at my place, discussing last minute details of the play.
