You want to let people close to you, but you’re covered in thorns that cut those who try. You want to tell someone that sometimes you think of them when you fall asleep and find peace in the fact that they exist, however a jumbled mess of nonsense comes out instead. You want to allow yourself to feel, but instead you predetermine endings and step on the stems that could have grown into beautiful flowers. Being a hopeless romantic and a helpless cynic is perhaps the cruelest contradiction of all.

✧ . : ° ｡ ❛ BLAISE  .

Blaise smiles back at her and looks around at his surroundings. “The hall looks so different when it’s all decorated like this. The people look so fancy too… You look very pretty.”

        “  oh, gosh, thank you,  “   aria mumbles, red-faced, though flushed cheeks are overshadowed by a massive grin.   “  so do you !  i mean ... not pretty, but ... HANDSOME ?  yeah. handsome.  “

What kind of music does Aria like?

        aria’s taste in music is kind of ... different ??  ig ??  it’s all over the place and very eclectic in terms of genres. she really enjoys 90s hip hop ( outkast, tupac, a tribe called quest ) and alternative r&b ( marian hill, childish gambino, fka twigs ).

a few songs she likes ( bold are favorites ) :

REDBONE, childish gambino

ALL EYEZ ON ME, tupac shakur

ONE TIME, marian hill

TWO WEEKS, fka twigs

UNDER CONTROL, the internet

MO MONEY MO PROBLEMS, the notorious b.i.g. ft. puff daddy & mase

BACK TO ME, marian hill & lauren jauregui

CAN I KICK IT?, a tribe called quest

BIG POPPA, the notorious b.i.g.

✧ . : ° ｡ ❛ MAI  .

        part of her is TEMPTED. tempted to leave the other and never look back. the school was so big, the other might not even see her anyways. ( the idea of talking to her and her not liking mai… scared her. ) but she doesn’t, and she almost breaks her arm while mentally patting herself on the back. besides. mai was in a situation much like the other a while back. “ what do you need help with? “ she asks, offering a smile to the other.

        aria is thankful when the girl stops       it probably shows on her face, too       but she’s nervous as well, overthinking the situation to the point where she almost gets up to leave. the other teen looks kind, however, and has a beautiful smile, so aria coerces herself to stay.   “  ... nothing in particular,  “   she mumbles, face warming with embarrassment.   “  i’m just       a little scared, i guess. i would like some company, if that’s not too much to ask.  “

✧ . : ° ｡ ❛ DIO  .

dio looked down at the girl, a small smile playing on his lips. she looked just as lost as him. “what do you need help with cara mia?” he said softly, trying to be gentle. his accent slipped, coating the Italian words easily. “I’m Dio, i’m pretty new here myself ,but I promise it isn’t as scary as it seems.” he added, mistaking her worry for fear.

        the familiar language shoots a pang of confidence through her chest.   “  oh, grazie a dio !  i thought i was the only one.  “   she exclaims quietly, relief burning bright in her dark eyes. aria forces herself to smile, and even though she isn’t very convincing, he is helping to alleviate some of her worry.   “  my name is aria. we must be friends, si ?  this place won’t be as scary with another italiano by my side.  “

✧ . : ° ｡ ❛ BLAISE  .

Blaise looked around in awe of everyone at the ball in their gowns and suits, dazzled by the sheer glamour of it all. In fact, he felt a little under-dressed, despite having rented a tux for the occasion. Hesitantly, he approached somebody that he didn’t recognize due to their mask and said, “This is a real nice party, don’t y’think? And this music… I ain’t heard anythin’ like it before.”

        aria is so distracted by the music that she doesn’t notice him at first. she whirls around when she realizes there’s someone talking to her, however, and offers him a broad smile.   “  it’s beautiful, isn’t it ?  the entire thing. it’s so ... sophisticated.  “

✧ . : ° ｡ ❛ ZACH  .

“Oh, Aria, hello! You made it to the masquerade, that’s good!”, he exclaimed happily as she grabbed the flower, “oh, you’re just being nice. You look quite beautiful, though, and I can’t possibly compete with that! I thought you’d came with Gabe”, he commented with a little tilt of the head.

        aria stiffens at the mention of gabriel. she’s quiet for a moment       choosing her next words carefully       and though her eyes tell a disheartening tale, the warm smile never disappears from her face. “  oh, you must have misheard !  gabriel is here with lydia. i don’t have a date.  “   she tries her best not to make the statement cumbersome. ( she’s not a good actress ).   “  i was going to ask isaac to come with me, but something told me he didn’t want to go       so i didn’t bother.  “

✧ . : ° ｡ ❛ ZACH  .

“Hello, there! How is the dance going so far? It’s full of people and their very nice outfits, but anyway –I’m just rambling– would you like a flower? I’m giving them away and I think it really fits your clothes”.

        “  gosh, zach, am i glad to see you         i would love a flower.  “   aria smiles for the first time in what feels like hours, and graciously accepts his gift.   “  you look so handsome !  we kind of match, don’t you think ?  “   to prove her point she does a little twirl, black sequins glimmering under the dim lighting.
