Isaiah looked between Ava and the Altar, not even knowing where to start with her questions. “I… D-I don’t know. I just…” His voice trailed off. How was he supposed to tell her that this was probably Arya’s doing? He didn’t want them to stop being friends or for Ava to get angry, but he also knew that he looked like a weirdo and needed to explain himself… In a second.
“Hold on, I have to go do something.” He quickly walked to the corner of his room and pulled out his phone from his pocket.
Arya was now somehow sitting on Liam’s lap. The last thing she expected was for him to grab her arm and pull her close to him. Usually when she told people about her coven, they either got freaked out or - depending on who they were - asked to join. His nonchalant answers and the way he pulled her in was sort of offensive, as if the only thing he wanted was sex. Still, she couldn’t help but feel her body tingle from his touch. She pulled away and stood up. “Um, I don’t think we’re going to be doing this right now. I was hoping you would be more enthusiastic, not just saying ‘oh cool’ Because i wanted to ask you something.” She paused a bit, wringing her hands, wondering if this was a mistake. “I wanted to ask if you would join the coven.”
As if interrupted by the universe, Arya’s phone dinged in her pocket. She took it out and read the message.
Isaiah:
Arya what the fuck did you put in my room?
“Oh God.” Arya said out loud. She quickly sent a text back.
Arya
What??
Isaiah
You know exactly what I’m talking about. The altar. What is your problem?
Arya
Oh that? That was a prank Haha XD I got you good didn’t I?
Isaiah
What kind of prank is that? You sneak into my room and put something in there that’s coincidentally about Ava? Are you trying to stop us from being together or something?
Arya
Look I can’t talk right now. It was just a joke chill out. Lets just talk later.
Arya put her phone back into her pocket and let out a sigh, gripping her long braids into a ponytail out of exasperation. "You know, sometimes people in covens are just so sensitive and untrustworthy. That’s why I need new members." She started walking around the room, her fingers trailing across some dusty books on the bookshelf. “Someone like you.” She said to Liam.
Isaiah put his phone back into his pocket and let out a deep breath. He slowly walked back to Ava. “Arya was the one who put this here. She said it was a prank.” He put prank in quotation marks with his fingers. If Ava was angry, he wouldn’t blame her. Besides, where did she even get that giant picture of Ava from? It was somewhat creepy and he couldn’t believe Arya went that far. He had so many questions.
