PROLOGUE
Beep beep beep.
That was my alarm, trying to wake me up.
Stupid machine.
"Aria, Aria, Aria wake up" urghh, who wake up early should be sued.
"Aria Willson. You have exactly five minutes to get up missy or you will be Late, Again!" That totally woke me
I woke up like my bum was on fire and ran into the bathroom before it was too late, I start with brushing my teeth and look at the bird's nest I call my hair, I try to brush my hair but its of no use the stubborn mane will never listen to me.
"Why can't you wake me up a little earlier " I yelled in frustration to my best friend and roommate Spencer.
She is cute. With beautiful red locks, wheat brown skin, black eyes, and 5.2 height.
She can play all kinds of rolls like. being my mom when I miss her, an adult to advise, a child to be pampered and most of all a best friend. who can never leave you upset or broken?
I'm glad I have her, and I would love to talk how wonderful of a person she is.
But right now I'm late.
Mr. Grumpy ( My maths professor) is very punctual and I'm someone who is all ways on time *note the sarcasm* and he loves me till death.
"Hurry up" Spencer yelled from downstairs.
"Coming " I yelled while swinging my backpack over my shoulder.
But there was something missing.
Oh My God! My locket.
I started looking for it on my dressing table.
And there it was my locket. A thin chain with a pendant. A pendant which has so many memories.
Memories I will never forget.
Memories of us.
I never thought it was possible, but it somehow was.
And it started, something like this.
FLASHBACK
"For the love of God! please, Lucy, hurry up We are already late" I groaned in frustration.
my friend Lucy and I are or were on our way to the cafeteria but then she somehow in the sea of people found her boyfriend Standing near his locker stuffing his books in.
"Just a minute, " she said and ran towards him and unfortunately dragged me with her.
"Babe," he said as soon as he saw her pulled her into a bear hug and kissed on top of her head.
Which made me roll my eyes. 'Typical couple ' gag
"Hey Aria" he greeted me. When he was done with the lovely- dovey thingie.
"Hey, Blake" I smiled. I might hate the concept of love or anything near it but Blake is my good friend, we've been together since we were in 4th grade.
"Can we go already? I'm starving " I complained whining.
"Sure, why not" he said shaking his head amused with my childishness
"Thank God " I sighed dramatically. And practically ran to the cafeteria.
We got our food and sat on our usual table with the rest of our friends.
We are totally 7 friends. Me, Lucy ( the girl I came in with) she is beautiful with blue eyes, fair skin, slim figure, 5.3 height, and blonde hair.
Blake. He is fair with black eyes, 6 feet height, black hair, and muscular body.
Peter. With the same height, same body type, same hair but with grey eyes and Brown skin.
Anna. With blue eyes, fair skin and she is Blake's twin so they have almost similar features
Alex. As in Alexander. With light brown eyes, tanned skin, same height, and same body type.
Kiyara.with slim figure, 5 feet in height, black hair, grey eyes.
In case you didn't notice. the reason for the guy's height is because they all are in the school's football team. And Peter is their captain.
And all girls excluding me are cheerleaders. So we are the cool people but we aren't like the popular guys who bully others and make them do our homework. Well, I do make Alex do my homework cause I do way more things for him.
We are simple with carefree nature.
"Hey guys," we three said to them and got the lot of hey and hi in return.
"Hey, those are mine" Alex whined like a kid. cause I stole some fries off his tray.
"I know Grambel, " I said winking teasingly
"I hate that Nickname" he whined again, fake glaring at when as I keep eating his food
"That's why I use it," I said stealing some more fries again.
"Your evil," he said glaring at me.
I just pulled out my tongue and rolled my eyes.
"Hey, guys look." Anna pointed something behind me.
"There comes the dramatics," she said and it was true.
There comes the members of the basketball team and their cheerleaders.
I hate those people cause they are so fake. Always so clingy.
I just ignored them. So did the others.
And that's how our lunch ended chattering, gossiping and cracking lame jokes.
And finally it was our last class and it was my favorite class.
In case you didn't notice, I'm not the typical type of a girl who sits on the benches and cheers for other people. I'm one of those who likes people to cheer for me.
And I'm the captain of the volleyball team.
I made my way toward the ground in my PT costume which is a short white skirt with short shorts underneath. And blue double strip top.
"Hey Aria, come on" the coach yelled for me to run.
Everyone was running laps and we always run with guys. I ran fast and was now competing with Alex, Peter, and James.
They are our best runners and I like running with them. They kind of have an aura of power around.
I feel confident when I'm with them. Makes me feel something important. Someone different.
"You can't outrun me Aira" Alex yelled running beside me.
I gave him a side glance and smirked " Watch me"
And ran as fast as I could and finished. Not first but before Alex.
I started laughing at his face and Peter joined me. We were laughing hard and By the look on his face, he didn't like it at all. Which caused us to laugh even harder.
"Haha, guys haha," he said annoyed.
"Why do you challenge her. When you clearly know your gonna loose" Peter said patting on his shoulder.
Alex just glared at him and walked away.
By the end of the PT class, we were exhausted and completely drained. There was no energy left in us.
"Guys I'm tired" I whined exhausted.
"Me too" " same here" were the chorus answers.
"So what now," I asked smirking.
"STARBUCKS" they all yelled excited.
I chuckled. Kids
We were off to go and were there in no time.
"Guys you carry on. I forgot my phone in the car, I'll go get it" I said when we were halfway to the entrance.
I ran back and got my phone from Alex's car. I started walking back to the cafe. That's when I saw a little girl standing in the middle of the road and a car was moving towards her.
I couldn't let her be. So I ran towards her and bent covering her with my body.
I before the car hit us both. we were covered with something warm and heavy.
And it was breathing heavily. I opened my eyes and saw a guy holding me. Like my life depended on it.
Well, it kind of did.
He slowly opened his eyes and I was lost in warm green clouds. We were staring at each other's eyes.
Lost in an unnamed world.
Our staring contest was cut short when the car which was about to hit us started blowing his horn.
The stranger unwrapped his arms from around me. And stood up while holding out his hand for me to take.
I gladly took it. And stood up with the girl still in my arms.
He was someone, I have never seen before. Brown hair, green eyes, straight nose, pink full lips, and well-built body. He was almost maybe 6.2.
"Oh My God! Baby are you alright? are you ok" came a female voice from behind me?
A woman around 30 or something pulled the girl out of my grasp and hugged her tightly and started kissing her face.
"Thank you so much. I can't thank you enough for what you have done" she said hugging her I assume daughter.
"It's ok. Is she alright?" I asked looking at the girl examining her for any injuries. And thankfully there weren't any.
I turned to thank the stranger but he was already looking at me. His stare was intense and captive.
I blinked "Thank you, " I said smiling.
"Your welcome, " he said in a deep rich voice. A voice which will make your knees go weak.
"Aria," I said extending my hand for him to shake.
He just kept looking at it. As if it was something weird
I gave him a confused look. He looked at my face again "Really? " he asked.
I gave him my i-did not-get-it look. To which he just shook his head in disbelief.
"Tyler," he said "Tyler brook. We go to the same school."
Huh? Do we go to the same school? When did that happen?.
"Oh. I'm sorry " I said embarrassed.
Why can't I remember him? Or maybe its because I don't talk to all the guys in my class.
"It's alright, " he said still looking at me. And before we cloud say something the car horned again pulling us back to reality.
We looked at each other and smiled while getting off the road.
"Well. I guess I'll see you later?" He asked nervously scratching back of his head.
"Sure," I said and walked away to my friends.
As soon as I reached my friends "was that Tyler brook? " Anna asked me.
"Yeah. How do you know him?" I asked confused. I didn't see him the school recently.
"He just joined this year," she said
I just nodded.
After having our delicious hot coffee we went back to our respective places and Alex was my ride
"Bye," he said as he pulled into my driveway.
"Bye," I said kissing his cheek and getting out of his car.
I waved at him when I got to my front door and he waved back and drove away.
I opened the front door and there I was. In an empty home. Again!.
My house is two stories building with a backyard. My room is upstairs, it doesn't have a balcony or something. But it does have a huge window.
It's not like I live alone. but my mom is a doctor, so she is always either late or she doesn't come home at all.
I'm cool with it. or maybe I'm just used to it.
I made me towards my lovely room. I shower and stand in front of the mirror.
I'm not one of the girls who love the mirror, because I hate it.
Not because I'm ugly or something, but I just hate.
I starred in front of me. There was a girl with dull brown eyes with long lashes, pink fair skin, pink full lips, waist length Brown hair, and 5.4 height.
Shaking my head, I pulled out some shirt and sweatpants, putting them on.
I did my homework, cleaned my room, made some dinner and started eating.
I went to bed after that. And had a dreamless, sleep.
"Aria, sweetheart wake up," my mom said lightly pushing my curtains apart.
I groaned but woke up. Rubbing my eyes "morning ma " I said in a sleepy voice.
"Good morning baby, " she said kissing my forehead and ruffling my already messy hair.
"Hurry up. I've made pancakes "
She left the room. I lazily got into the bathroom and had a quick shower.
I took a grey top and blue ripped jeans from my wardrobe.
I let my hair down and I was done. Grabbing my bag, I went downstairs.
To my kitchen and Alex was pigging out again.
"Seriously dude? " I gave him an amused look.
"What! Your mom makes the best pancakes" he said with a mouthful of pancakes.
"Eww don't talk with your mouthful " I gave him a disgusting look.
He just rolled his eyes.
"Come on. Sit down" my mom said putting some pancakes in front of me.
After breakfast, I kissed my mom. goodbye and walked to his car.
"Your driving, " he said and threw the keys to me.
I smiled wickedly and got into the driver's seat. As soon as he buckled up his seatbelts. I speed up.
His has a red Audi r8 and seeing my love towards the car. He sometimes lets me drive.
I sped up to its maximum and entered the gates with a gush of speed.
And made a 360 turn and parked the car. Perfectly.
"Remind me, never to let you drive again, " Alex said dramatically holding his head.
I rolled my eyes. "At least I know how to make an entrance, " I said smirking.
And got out of the car. And all eyes were on us.
I'm used to it, Not a big deal.
We went to our lockers and I stood in front of mine.
Pulling out my books for my first class. I was climbing down the stairs and twisted my ankle and slipped and before I hit the ground.
A pair of arms wrapped themselves around me. Opening my eyes, I was yet again lost in mesmerising green eyes.
"Can I make a wish?" He asked smiling down at me, Sweetly.
"Huh?" I gave him a confused look.
"Cause I just caught a falling star, " he said amused.
I let out a small laugh and straighten up.
"Thanks for not dropping me," I said putting some distance between us.
"I don't drop precious things, " he said grinning.
To which I rolled my eyes.
Tyler's P.O.V
I was walking towards my class when I heard a small scream. Near the stairs.
I rushed and caught her before she hit the floor. And to my surprise it was Aria.
She is simply beautiful. I've never seen anyone like her before. She is smart, intelligent, funny, carefree and naughty.
And she opened her eyes. Her eyes are my most favorite part of her. Because they are rich brown and they have an unusual spark.
I used a pickup line trying to make her laugh and her laugh was not fake or girlish but real and it was magical.
I never get enough of it.
She has a bad habit of rolling her eyes.
See she did it again.
Aira P.O.V
I went to my class and surprisingly Tyler joined me.
Anna said to me that it's been a week or something since he joined.
"Aria" yelled my chemistry professor.
Because I was sleeping in his class.
Sue me. If you don't think chemistry class isn't boring.
I stood up. "Why does the size of an element increase down the group?" He asked.
Seriously?
"Because as the number of shells increases, size increases, " I said in a bored tone.
"Sit down. And don't sleep in the class" he warned to which I rolled my eyes.
And heard a chuckle behind me. Turning around I found Tyler suppressing his laughter.
"What?" I asked in a hushed voice.
"You have a bad habit of rolling eyes," he said amused.
Which I rolled my eyes. Damn it, I did it again.
This time it was not a chuckle. It was a full-throttle laugh.
