I enjoyed kissing him. Technically I enjoyed kissing in general, and … some other things too.
I wasn’t necessarily a flirt but I did like flirting at some occasions, it’s fun. Even better when you’re not faking confidence like half the people here.
He kissed me again, I smiled with half a chuckle and kissed him back. This was fun.
As he pulled back I laughed a bit “take out the eyes of the fair people” I smirked “better than bumper cars anyway” I added and ran a hand through my hair

I raised my brow at him, sassy much?
“For your information I don’t have a problem with photographers” I crossed my arms “and I didn’t know because my head isn’t stuck up everyone asses so I don’t know things about people I don’t really interact with. No offence” I added
“It’s cool, I just barely meet people here that aren’t like… models and things like that” I explained.

With day having been so eventful, Mateo did not know about the fair until it was too late to really make plans with anyone. Yet he still wanted to go and check it out, so he left his home anyway, dressed rather casually with his hair pulled back into the ever-popular man-bun. It was lazily done with a messy appearance but he did not feel the need to impress anyone, really.
As he arrived at the fair, he was immediately drawn in by the bright lights. He was soon distracted, however, when he noticed a familiar silhouette in the distance. He stared for only a few seconds when the girl turned around, revealing herself to be Hailey. Her eyes had quickly darted away, making it clear that she did not want to talk to him. Well, making it clear to anyone other than Mateo, perhaps. Instead, he assumed that she either did not see him or did not realize that it was him.
With no ill intent, he lazily jogged after her. It would not hurt to say a quick greeting, right? As he approached, he grinned and spoke loudly in an attempt to be heard over the noise. “Hey! Hailey-- that’s you, right?” The closer he got, he slowed down so that the jog turned into something similar to a confident stride.
@BlackBlood || Hailey It was perfectly fine!!

“Alright fine,” he said giving up. He was in no mood to have a row with a anybody, especially with the new website and this Did forsaken lockdown. "No offense taken and your right majority of the people here are models,"get said in agreement “really shallow one’s too,” he muttered to himself. “Anyway! What do you do for a living?” he asked jovially.

I heard that comment but chose not to reply to it, so I just rolled my eyes subtly.
Anyway! What do you do for a living?
"I don’t " I simply said and ran a hand through my hair
I don’t work. Not that I’m lazy or anything, on the contrary. But I have enough money, when I’ll need to, I’ll just make some more.

“Who’s the doctor now” I chuckled lightly so that I wouldn’t hurt as much and watched as he went to grab my charts. “Well, hopefully you.” I joked, fidgeting with the hospital bracelet on my wrist.
“A concussion… broken rib. And leg too”
I raised my brows and clutched the sheet in my hand. “could be worse… but at least you’re okay, that’s the most important thing now” I nodded slowly and gave him a half-hearted smile. “Yeah…” I whispered. “How am I supposed to dance when my leg is…” I said, pinching the bridge of my nose. Oh, jeez. My career was going to be done for if this didn’t heal properly. I could still feel it though - which was a good sign.
“Adan… he saved your life, I owe him everything forever now" I furrowed my brows and looked around before looking back to him. Adán was one of my friends too - well, a lot of people were. “Me too…” I muttered. I needed to talk to him soon.
"“You didn’t kill him…he’ll be okay.”
I nodded slowly as he wiped the tears from my cheeks - my hand grabbing onto his wrist gently for comfort. “I don’t want to hurt anyone… What if I paralyzed him- what if he forgets everything? or he’s in a coma? Or-” I started going on and on about the what ifs. I felt terrible. Mentally and physically.
“better… but I’m still a bit overwhelmed. I was honestly terrified you were going to die. I can’t lose you… you’re the most important person in my life…” I looked up at him and smiled softly, looking into his eyes for a moment. “I don’t want to lose you either. You’re the most important person to me too, Miles.” I said, frowning slightly at the thought of it.

“It’s not your fault.” I said and took her hand “stoo blaming yourself, it can be his fault as much as it can be yours. It can be nobody’s fault. Accidents happen” I said, though I fully one hundred percent believed it was Leo’s fault. Everything is always Leo’s fault.
I don’t want to lose you either. You’re the most important person to me too, Miles
I smiled as she said that, it warmed my heart.
But soon enough my smile faded and I bit my lip looking at the window as I thought of it…
Stop thinking about it.
You’re just friends.
She doesn’t like you.
Don’t ruin this. Especially not this.

I patted the spot next to me and looked at him sweetly. “Lay with me?” I asked, biting my lip softly as I looked away for a moment. I then looked back and noticed him thinking about something.

Arestia | Day One
“I’ve got terrible allergies ya know-GRAAAH!”
She laughed slightly before coming over and picking up the puppy before responding, “Forgot about that, sorry.” She said as the puppy licked her face she cringed slightly although she petted the puppy’s head. “You act like it’s going to eat you.” She sat on the opposite end of the long couch. (let’s pretend it’s a very long couch mk) The small puppy in her lap stared at Aries as if it couldn’t comprehend why someone would run away from the cute dog. Hestia reassured it by saying, “Don’t mind Bories, he’s naturally an awful person. Only naturally awful people are allergic to dogs.” Like my Mother, Hestia couldn’t help but add in her head as she played with Leo. She proceeded to completely leave Aries alone for the next thirty minutes as the young puppy encaptured her attention, like most pets tended to do with Hestia. It took a few but the puppy ended up falling asleep, it’s large floppy ears covering up it’s eyes as it curled up into a tiny ball. She turned, tilting her head slightly at Aries, “So, what movie?” She asked.

I listened to Noelle tell me what happened. ”he and Addy got in an accident” I shook my head a little as she spoke. I figured it had something to do with that damn bike of his too. I get he loves that thing but you’d think he would be more careful now and learn. I bet he wasn’t even wearing a helmet. What if he hit is head and has a concussion? Or worse…“we have no idea what’s going on with Leo…he’s been in there for hours…” I was a little upset now. “Well did you ask? Have you spoken to his nurses or anyone?” I asked her and I knew there was a bit of rudeness in my tone but k was worried. If she hadn’t asked anyone then I was going to. I wanted to be in the know of what was going on. I looked over at Fadil as he spoke and was glad he brought this up too. “When are they going to come out?” At least we have a bit of common sense in emergency situations. “I don’t like hospitals” I nodded in agreement. “Me either. I haven’t been to one in so long…” I looked at him and put my hand on his forearm. I did appreciate him coming in but I didn’t want to put anyone in a place they don’t feel comfortable. I didn’t either but that’s besides the point. I have to be here for Leo whether I like it or not. As of now I’ll just push aside anything I’m feeling or thinking about. “You really don’t have to stay if you don’t want to. I get it completely.” I dropped my hand and crossed my arms over my chest. “At least Addys doing okay, as far as we know.” I said trying to speak positively in this situation.

🅲🅻🅾🅽🅴 - Aries and Vivia - Day 3
“I forgot how annoying you are, deriving happiness from irritating others."
“Well, they do say true love is finding that one person you can annoy for the rest of your life,” he said with a cocky grin.
"The one time I try being nice to you, you just have to go and ruin it,”
He lifted his hands up in some type of surrender, his smile falling. “Wait. You’re right.” He leaned forward a bit and sniffed before placing his hands on his hips and pressing his lips together in a thin line with a nod. “Nope. Sorry. That rare scent is still in the air.”
When they were friends before, jokes and occurrences like these were normal. But after the incident, he could tell she was much more distant and cautious around him. He didn’t blame her.
She turned the other way, beginning to walk off and Aries let out a sigh and was about to walk to his original destination as well.
He lifted a surprised brow before pointing a finger to himself. “You serious?” He then gave a cautious gaze. “Are you going to get me into a very secluded area so you can chop off my hair and sell it to the black market?”
He finally gave a small laugh through his lips before pulling his phone our from his pocket. He had to say, he was pleasantly surprised at her invitation. It meant he had some time to rectify their rocky relationship by somehow making her forget all about it…somehow being the key word here.
“I had some buddies meeting me up to go out on my boat, if you wanna hang out there or wherever you’re going. Either way. I’d just have to let them know.”
@Yomama - Nuuuuuu! Mine was!! Big time! My brain be dead XD
🅲🅻🅾🅽🅴 - Adeline and Mateo - Day 3
“She doesn’t know what a frog is!” A kid from the audience snorted, causing the other children to roll over in laughter because they knew better.
“Ooh, ooh! Wait, are frogs green?! I thiiiiink I saw it over… there!”
Adeline let her head fall down as she hid even more laughter. She couldn’t take this seriously, not when Mateo was sitting next to her acting like a compelte clown. Not to mention the fact that she felt like an idiot with a puppet on her hand. Yet her body seemed to be getting more relaxed as the kids laughter became louder, pointing one at another because the princess had called them “frogs”.
She tried to speak again but her words were interrupted by even more breathless laughter when Mateo’s voice squeaked. She slapped him on the leg repeatedly as she tried to calm herself. The fact that she wasn’t supposed to laugh seemed to be causing more weird sounds from her throat.
She let out a long exhale and moved her hair behind her ear, continuing on. “Yer highness, I think the witch dun cast a nastay spell in yer mind.”
Adeline reached behind her, fishing through the chest. luckily she found a frog and put it on her empty hand.
“Now where’s that dang frog dongone to? He’s wanted for the mysterious disappearance of the fruit fly family.”
The cops hand moved to his heart. “Littlr Jr. Is already so big. And it’s only been sixteen hours since his birth!”
The frog peeked out before going back behind the stage in and Adeline cleared her throat again.
“Ribbit. Ribbit.”
The cop spazzed out. “Did ya hear that princess? s it comin’ from?”
The cop walked over to her, putting a hand on her shoulder. “Maybe we should ask the audience for some help findin’ it.”
@Daunt lying is frowned upon.
🅲🅻🅾🅽🅴 - Aries and James - Current Day
“I’ve been practicing that word all day and I still don’t think I got it.”
Aries gave a light chuckle and a reassuring smile before finally took a seat on the bar stool next to James now that he felt somewhat alright about the guy. “A+ man, A+. Though the business thing makes total sense. Where are you from if you don’t mind me asking?”
Aries was naturally being a bit more polite than normal. It was part of his business mask, a mask he placed on when there was possibly a chance at a partnership or something to gain.
“How do you… live here. I mean cameras flashing everywhere… it doesn’t get… overwhelming?”
“Ah, not a big thing in your country?” He shrugged and pursed his lips as he thought for a moment. “Most people here live their entire lives compeltely used to that. In fact, for some, if there isn’t a camera trying to take a picture of their face it’s an issue. I do have several ways on how to avoid them though,” he said with a wink and a smirk before placing his attention back onto his drink.
The mention of the site that’d been spilling people’s secrets recently made him pause, the top of the bottle slightly against his lips.
He let out a sigh and put it down, turning to face James once again.
“I bet you a million bucks it’s just some publicity stunt. Some journalist got bored that celebrities actually lived normal lives and thought it’d be profitable to turn everyone agaisnt each other.” He gave a low chuckle through his throat and grabbed the glass by the neck. “Though it’s kinda fulfilling to see hidden backstabbing and all that, don’t you think?”
“Hi!”
Aries looked over and saw Sophie and her other friend walking over.
Aries lifted a brow as Sophie gave him a glare but turned around to face James. “Hi, I’m Sophie! Aries was actually coming over here to invite you to go join the festivities with us! You in?”
Aries boredly looked over at James and put his hand around his neck, letting it fall to the side and his tongue loll out as he suggested accepting would only kill him slowly. The moment Sophie turned around Aries sat normally and nodded slowly. “We’ve got plenty of room if you wanna join.”
Adeline and Henry - Current Day
“Right, okay.”
She bit her lower lip, slightly embarassed at her terrible acting before whispering a bit loudly, “I’m sorrrry.”
“What? You scared, mate?”
“N-no!” He yelled defensively. He cleared his throat and regained his composure. “It’s simply dangerous. It could fall at any moment. And we’d die all because you teo wanted a lame adrenaline rush.”
Adeline shrugged. “Then Henry and I will just go.”
“You have to come with us, peter.”
He glared at Henry and stomped over to the line. “It’s Preston,” he snarled and pushed past them, his back tense.
Adeline tilted her head slightly. “Should I feel bad for this?” She muttered before they continued through the line. An overly preppy chick was smiling brightly as she checked each person’s seats before the coaster shot straight out of the area and to the large incline ahead.
Adeline was bouncing on her heel like a child. It’s been a while since she’d last visited since her mother declared that things like themes parks were simply a waste of time that could be made to good use.
Preston was obiosuly confident Adeline would be sitting next to her on the ride. It seemed like he had to expereince at all with rollercoasters because he ended up going into the line leading to the next coaster, and Adeline and Henry were in the same one.
She was secretly very happy about that.
As the gates opened, Adeline grabbed Henry’s arm and rushed him into the coaster before Preston could notice.
“Come on come on come on,” she squealed, sitting on the left and buckling in.
Preston had noticed. And he wasn’t happy about it.
He pointed to Henry and growled. “Switch me seats!”
“Sir, what seems to be the problem here?”
“Make him switch me!” He yelled at the employee.
She blinked and laughed nervously. “I-im sorry sir I cant just kick him our from the seat when he was in line-”
“Do it!”
“Preston, quit making a scene,” Adeline stated, her head boredly leaning against her fist.
“But-”
“You can ride with me!” A little girl holding cotton candy bounced out and grabbed Preston’s hand.
“N-no let me go!”
“You’re probably just scared huh?” She said, leading him away to another cart more in the back.
As his complaints faded away, so did Adeline’s tension. She finally relaxed and let her head flip over to Henry, a smile meeting her lips.
“Aaaaand you are free from my debt clutches. Feels good doesn’t it?”
She stretched out her arms and faced forward before turning to face him again.
“Now, enlighten me: has the self-proclaimed manwhore paused his antics for a self-proclaimed bleached-blonde babe lately?”
@aesthetic - this. Was. So. Bad.
🅲🅻🅾🅽🅴 - Aries and Knox - Day 2
He naturally laughed at her comment about world domination, nodding as he gave a thumbs up. “Crazy evil scientist have been getting it all wrong. The key to taking over the world is a gum business.”
“… well, now that would be a good reason along with helping me fix it with other things. Not a very tech savvy person.”
He arched his brow curiously at her body motions: her hands were playing with her fingers almost nervously and she was looking the other way.
“With what exactly?” He asked, tilting his head towards her to show he was genuinely listening.
“Wow, imagine someone eating all of that. Couldn’t be me.”
“You, Miss Manes, needn’t imagine anything at all. Because you will be eating it all,” he stated with a smirk.
”Umm… what about a chocolate chip muffin?”
Her eyes reached his and spoke out for approval as if she were a kid. He had to laugh at that before nodding, the employee inputting it into the order.
“Will that be all for today?”
“Eh, a couple mango smoothies. Why not.”
He pulled out some cash but looked back over his shoulder at Knox’s suggestion. He shrugged and put a bill away, figuring it was Knox’s way of saying this isn’t a date or something. Just a friendly gathering. Of two people who’d spent the night together. “It’s not a big deal,” he mentioned before holding his hand out for her bill.
🅲🅻🅾🅽🅴 - Aries and Heather - Current Day
“You know something?” He looked over at her and gave a knowing nod. “You’re terrifying. And strangely murderous. I would not want to be your unfortunate ex-” he paused, putting a hand on his chest. “Oh no. I am.”
"I’ve just been really antisocial. "
He gave a small laugh through his nose before nodding. “Aren’t we all at one point or another? Paparazzi breathing down your neck 24/7, drama everywhere you go…it gets annoying.”
“So, where’s your girlfriend? I know that you must have one by now.”
Aries lifted a curious brow before laughing again. He was laughing as of he were surprised by her suggestion. Until he realized he did have one. And he’d somehow forgotten.
“You just know that huh? I am pretty irresistible, aren’t I?” He teased, nudging her shoulder.
He sighed and gave a shrug before responding. “She’s uh. She’s outside of Lime Grove for the time being.” Wanting to change the subject, he looked back and forth before spotting some tea cups, usually meant for kids.
“No puking challenge!” He said in a deep television-worthy voice as he pointed to the ride…
Aries and Aurie - Current Day
Aries continued to hold the brige of his nose as Aurie burst into a fit of laughter. He turned to look at her with a frown. Other people began placing their attention on them and he simply gave an award winning smile and a thumbs up before facing Aurie again as thr moved through the line.
“You know you just made my day, right?”
Like a child, he held up his hand and opened and closed it while mimicking her words in a high pitched voice.
“You’re a troll. It’s official.”
“Tomorrow’s news headlines. Aries, the most attractive f-boy of Lime Grove, separated a lovely couple due to his jealousy issues, was cruel to a kid by snatching his ice cream, and finally, broke a signboard. How clumsy can a person be?”
He scoffed and leaned against the railing before looking over at her lazily. “One: since when am I an infamous f-boy? I disapprove of said title. Two, that kid was practically done with his ice cream. No harm done.”
His eyes traveled upward at her question and he gave an open grin. “Always.” As they stepped inside, Aries took a seat in the middle, Aurie just next to her.
“Question, and punch me if in overstepping bounds, but why is it that the concept of staying tied to one guy freaks a girl like you out?” He stated as he started buckling into the ride.
He’d had tons of friends who’d mentioned wanting to ask Aurie out but she’d given them the cold shoulder. Now considering Aries was similar in the sense that he was fine with no feelings attached, he didn’t blame her. But he still wondered.
🅲🅻🅾🅽🅴 - Aries and Hestia - Day 1
She finally grabbed the puppy into her arms and made her way to the opposite couch, her demeanor calm as she stroked its fur. Like an evil villian from the movies. Aries cleared his throat and slid his finger around the collar of his neck, sitting down where he was and staring straight ahead as if not looking at it would make the dog disappear.
“You act like it’s going to eat you.”
Aries glanced over in her direction before scoffing and leaning back into the sofa, control in hand.
“You just…don’t understand how bad my allergies are,” he lied, scrolling through movies.
“Don’t mind Bories, he’s naturally an awful person. Only naturally awful people are allergic to dogs.”
Aries shook his head and scoffed through his nose. “Pretty sure allergies don’t dictate your level of douchiness.”
As Aries browsed, he took one last look in their direction and let out a sigh of relief once he noticed the dog was sleeping. Though he couldn’t let his guard down. Devils didn’t sleep for long.
“So, what movie?”
He shrugged. “Depends. You wanna go horror, comedy, animation?”
@katabasis - shut. Up.
🅲🅻🅾🅽🅴 - Aries and Natalina - Current Day
“Gimme a break Peter. Lime Grove is under lockdown, meaning my work load should defintely be cut down a bit right?”
“Aries, you’re a COO. Cutting down your work load is not an option. Not to mention you dad…”
As Aries walked along the path within the theme park, he spotted a man with a Hood over his head, pointing a camera straight at a girl on a bench. Peter’s words were drowned out as he tilted his head in inspection, his eyes rolling when he finally realized what the perv was doing. He began walking over.
“Thanks for the emotional lift up Pete. Go get yourself some nice tortillas and a beer and just relax,”
Aries hung up and slid his cell inside his Jean pocket before taking a seat right next to the guy on the picnic table. The black-hooded stranger was too focused on shooting pics of the girl a bit of a distance away to notice. Aries reached his hand over and swiftly pulled the camera from his grasp.
“H-hey!” He growled, finally making eye contact with Aries.
He began flipping through the photos, letting out a scoff through his nose once he realized who the guy was stealing photos of.
The man launched a hand for it but Aries quickly lifted it put of reach, continuing to scroll through.
“Well well well,” he cooed, pausing as a specific picture that was way to zoomed in for comfort.
“Someone has a crush on the gorgeous latina blonde huh?”
The man growled again and reached for it, but Aries simply put his hand on his head and pushed him back.
“Listen,” he said, shrugging and continuing to flip through the photos, a bit shocked and disgusted by the images. “I mean who wouldn’t take these stalker-like photos of Nat in every possible location?”
The man furrowed his brows and Aries further explained.
“I’m saying I get it.” This made the man relax a bit before laughing nervously.
“Ye-yeah…She’s pretty.” Aries naturally grimaced at the response before looking over at him with a fake smile.
“Lemme guess: you got into Lime Grove through a janitorial job and sell these pictures to your buddies outside.”
He rubbed the back of his neck, giving Aries his answer without a specific audible response. As Aries scrolled further, he realized it wasn’t just Natalina.
Aries let out a sigh and opened the bottom latch, popping out the SD card and standing up.
“Hey! What’s the big idea!”
The man reached for his hand but Aries quickly grabbed onto his wrist and twisted it the other way. “The big idea is creeps like you who have no respect for privacy and always seem to get away with it. I hear prison food’s not that bad with a bit of hot sauce.” Aries pulled him forward, his eyes intense as the man’s eyes widened. “So. I’d start running.”
He yanked his hand free and glared before grabbing his camera and running out. Aries made a quick call to security before raking a hand through his hair and walking over to Natalina, slipping the SD card into his pocket. It was no secret that Natalina really didn’t like him but faked the smiles for the sake of his friend, Vincent. Truth be told, Natalina wasn’t exactly his cup of tea either. She seemed like a barbie doll who constantly played dress up for the sake of cameras. But then again, so did Aries.
“Alll by myseeeeeeelf!” He started singing as he got closer to her. “Dont wanna beeee all by myseeeeeeeelf!”
Without an invitation, Aries sat next to her on the bench and put both arms out of the back of the bench, his demeanor his usual relaxed self than the different person who had been threatening the camera guy before.
“You know people come to fairs to have fun right?” He lifted up a finger and clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth. “I forgot. The word fun is foreign to you.”
Aries pulled out his phone and searched fun into google.
“Enjoyment, amusement, and light-hearted pleasure.”

I told her everything that happened, she deserves to know she’s here for a reason.
I don’t like hospitals
Don’t we all?
Neither of us seemed comfortable with anything at this point.
I hated hospitals, they made me feel so … bad. And violated.
I didn’t like coming to the hospital, and it was already the second time this week that I’m in the hospital and it’s tea not bringing the best of me.
Well did you ask? Have you spoken to his nurses or anyone?
I nodded and looked aside with a light sigh “They won’t tell me at this point because I’m not family…” I explained “you’re his emergency contact, they’ll tell you if you ask” I added and looked at her
At least Addys doing okay, as far as we know.
“Yeah” I nodded with a tiny bit optimism. As far as I know she’s still unconscious but I don’t really know, I’m not there.

“No puking challenge”
I saw him point to a very big roller coaster. I crossed my arms and looked at him up and down. “It’s funny how you think that I would ever puke before you on that roller coaster, I thought that you knew me better than that.” I said in a mocking way. Then out of nowhere, I started running toward the roller coaster and screamed out “The last one there needs to do fifty push ups.”

He looked back at the blood bank and a shiver ran down his spine. This enclosure was a sure reminder of that one mistake that defined the rest of his life. He ate healthy as much as he could, he did a lot of vigorous workouts to keep in shape, and avoided people who had the slightest cough as if they had the coronavirus. He listened attentively as Elise was talking and he was thanking his lucky stars that someone was taking charge but Noelle’s answer changed the complexity of the situation. If this Leo is as injured as his surgery is claiming him to be, he better be worth it because I am going against a vow for this person. When she touched him he smiled down at her. “There’s no need to worry. I’m here of my own free will. And besides what type of friend would I be if I let you suffer here alone with your fears of hospitals?” he inquired lightly. He was trying to joke off the situation but it wasn’t so easy.
“Look let’s wait about an hour if no one comes to tell us anything, we are going to march up to a nurse handling his case and demand answers,” he said putting a hand on Elise’s shoulder and crouching down on the floor. He was going to burn this particular sets of clothes along with the trainers. “And Noelle is right. As his emergency contact you have the right to know what’s going on with him,” he added intelligibly.

Few hours later
""
Slowly opening his eyes he tried to lift his hand up to cover his eyes from the blinding lights of this room but he couldn’t, his whole body felt heavy and sore and the thing on his arms surprised him; a cast? Blinking a few times trying to understand what was happening he noticed he was in a somehow familiar room and it didn’t take him long to figure out he was in a hospital. Blinking a few times to try and adjust his eyes to the light he immediately shifted his gaze to the door once he heard it opening, seeing a nurse coming in.
Just following her with his gaze her tried to remember what happened. Why was he here? The last thing he could remember is locking his door and… Getting on his bike? The headache was too much for him at this point, it was a pain he never really felt before, this was much worse than the last time. Closing his eyes he tried to listen to the nurse but couldn’t understand a thing she was saying. All he could hear is a muffled noise and the clock ticking, making him even more frustrated. Why can’t he remember anything?
Barely opening his eyes he tried to watch her as she spoke, keeping his eyes on her lips in hopes that might help. He did understand something about his condition; broken arm, fractured ribs, concussion but there were also other things he didn’t really get, medical terms were not something he was interested in and it didn’t bother him now. Sometimes it’s better to not know certain things but he opened his eyes wider as she mentioned another person. “What girl?” Whispering he tried to straighten up but the pain was too much to handle; wincing he laid back down clenching his fist. What she told him did make him remember what happened and it immediately made him feel even worse if that was possible now, especially when he heard who that girl was. From everyone it had to be Addy… If something happened he would never forgive himself but hearing she was somehow alright made him relieved.
But it also made him remember the reason why it all happened. Keeping his eyes closed he turned his head to the side, away from the door as he quietly told the nurse. “If anyone is here please don’t let them in. I don’t want to see anyone right now.” But that wasn’t completely true. Even now the only thing he could think about was that secret, he didn’t care about the fact he almost died… “If…” He spoke up slowly opening his eyes and turning his head towards the nurse. “Elise doesn’t give up that’s fine. I guess.” He hesitantly added, looking away almost right away. He wasn’t even sure if she was here, if anyone was here. How would they know about this?

🅲🅻🅾🅽🅴 - Aries and Heather - Current Day
She didn’t laugh at his joke but instead looked at him a bit cautiously which confused. So, just for good measure, he lifted up his hands innocently. “I was kidding,”
She gave Aries a challenging look and he smirked, knowing she liked challenges and winning as much as he did.
“Alright alright. But a challenge is a challenge. This is just step one to said challenge.”
“The last one there needs to do fifty push ups.”
He let out a long sigh as she ran off. This was the second time someone had done that to him today, but he started off in a run after her.
When she was clearly ahead of him, he reached out his arm and pulled off some leaves from the nearest tree, chucking it forward at her in some lame attempt to slow her down. The leaves simply fell down in front of him. He reached the line and shook his head with a breathless laugh.
“Fifty pushups huh?” He said, licking his lips as he got into line. He placed his index finger against the railing and started lifting it up and down. “1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6”

”you’re his emergency contact, they’ll tell you if you ask”
Noelles words kept playing in my head that I was still his emergency contact. We were once very close. There for each other no matter what it was for. And even now, though we haven’t been together for a good year or so I still would drop everything to help him. We took Fadil’s advice to wait awhile before asking questions. I was nervous to learn all the details though. I’d rather not know them but I know it’s for the better. I sat in a chair with my knees up to my chest and my forehead rested on the top of my knees. I hadn’t cried. I don’t want to so anytime I’d felt my tears welling up I held them back. I thought about everyone at the fair who are oblivious to everything happening. I am sure they are just having fun and enjoying themselves. I also had turned my phone on do not disturb so I wasn’t even aware of any new secrets had been posted since my two. It struck me that maybe my secrets coming out are the reason that this all happened. I felt a knot in my stomach and had to stand up. I couldn’t sit still any longer and needed to walk around. I could see Noelle as I paced the one way. She looked like she had been crying. I know it was selfish of me to feel jealous and upset that she was here but I guess they are dating so that would mean she is here. I never really thought I would meet whoever Leo moved on with and especially didn’t except it to be one of my friends.
I couldn’t wait any longer and walked over to the nurses station. It took some time to get someone who knew anything which only made me angrier. But what really p!ssed me off was her saying I wasn’t allowed to see him. If he is stable why can’t I go in. I shook my head and was going to walk away but something took me over and I grabbed the tablet which was sitting on the counter in front of me and let my eyes wander quickly till
I saw his name and room. She snatched it away from me but I was already hurrying down the hall to the room. Looking at the small numbers on the doors as I passed them until I saw the right one. I grabbed the handle but stopped myself from walking in. I got nervous. I hadn’t seen him since the fight. I heard commotion behind me and that was my cue to just go for it and walk in. I shut the door behind me and took a breathe. He was laying in the bed and I couldn’t lie he looked like sh!t. Was this a mistake to come in? No. It wasn’t, it was bound to happen. This wasn’t the way I thought it would but now or never.

This day was supposed to be relaxing. It was one of those days she actually enjoyed; who can say no to a fair day? It was made to get your mind off of things and let you have some fun without worrying about anything. No secrets and angry calls from parents but it seems like that was the only thing that was happening.
“It’s 4 am for you dad, isn’t it? We’ll talk about this in the morning, ok?” Playing with the zipper of her jacket she found herself walking all the way to the beach, taking a seat at the closest bench. Knowing her father this conversation wouldn’t end that easily… or well, so she would always just walk around nervously. “I’ll take care of it in the morning don’t think about that now.” And it was no secret her little secret caused some damage back at home. If they don’t react quickly they just might lose everything because of her mistake. Without listening to what he was saying she just hung up her phone, putting it back in her pocket and leaned back, looking up at the sky. Crossing her arms she slowly shifted her gaze to the lake in front of her counting seconds before she gets another call from him; she was surprised it didn’t happen earlier right as she hung up. Quickly sticking her hand in the pocket of her jacket she put her phone on silent, taking a deep breath. His anger was not something she needed right now, she needed some peace and quiet but things just kept getting better and better.
Hearing someone singing she knew right away who it was. Rolling her eyes before looking up at that person she put on a fake welcoming smile, not moving to make some space for him on the bench but it’s not like that stopped him.
“What a wonderful voice.” She commented trying to seem friendly but that was not what she wanted to do at all right now. He knew she didn’t really fancy him, he’s not that dumb to not see she was trying to act nice only because him and Vincent were good. That was torture to her, if she doesn’t like someone she would never fake her emotions but this was different. Letting him finish his little speech she just kept her eyes on him with almost no expression but only had her eyebrow lifted.
“Perhaps.” She slowly spoke up, turning her whole body towards him as she straightened up. Letting her gaze wonder down in almost checking someone out way she chuckled at his last words. “But they don’t come to the fair to get harassed.” Looking up at him and jokingly frowning, she leaned in resting her hand on his chest. “If you don’t know what that is you don’t really need google. You are doing it right now.” Playing with the collar of his shirt she looked down at it for a second before looking up to meet his eyes once again and quickly pulling away. “I guess we all have different ideas of fun. I didn’t know this was yours.” Rolling her eyes she crossed her arms as she slouched back in the bench, looking at the opposite direction. “Makes me feel sorry for you wifey.”

After Aries realized that he lost the race, he started doing fifty push-ups. I couldn’t help but laugh. “This is awesome honestly.” I said while I was knealing down to his face. “Don’t stop dude keep going…49…50!” I yelled while jumping up and clapping. “Do you want a wittle teddy bear as a award?” I pouted my lips while mocking him.
