It was Raining May 18 when Aria first went to a studio
Due to being late she forced herself to run as fast as she can only to bump to a boy wearing black leather jacket and sun glasses
"Hey Watch where you're going!" The boy said while looking at the one who bumped into him only to see a girl running like its running for its life
She did not even spare a glance at the boy she bumped into but she bowed and run as fast as she could
She was both excited and nervous because this is the first time she can use her talent in singing. Not only infront of her friends but infront of different people
But why did she stop singing?
After Aria finished 4th year of highschool her boyfriend broke up with her because of how her attitude was towards her boyfriend.
Due to her lack of confidence she stopped singing. Aria was an only child her parents has high expectations for her. They were forcing her to quit singing and start investing her time to business and earning money. Aria was not rich nor poor her family can only provide her education, food, clothes and shelter.
No one ever believed in her except for her friend Tricia Callisto.
Since her break up she's been locking herself in her room.
After a week Aria's friend Tricia invited her to go to the studio it's been a while since the day Aria stopped singing.
(Present)
She finally got to the studio it was a small building but it looked decent there are a few cracks on the wall and a few dirt on the floor
"Finally you arrived!"
She heard a scream coming from the back. When she looked back she saw her best friend Tricia waving while running towards her
"Yeah I finally arrived" she said with a small smile
"What took you so long?" Her friend said whil e panting
"I woke up late" She said while scratching the back of her head
"No big deal come on it's already starting" her friend said while pulling the thinner girl
As they walked towards the studio a guy bumped into them
"Sorry I wasn't paying attention" he said while his eyes looks like he lacks sleep and was emotionless.
"It's okay" she said politely while staring at the guys eyes.
The pale guy then asked "Do my eyes satisfy you?" Aria was dumbfounded for a moment then came back to her senses realizing that it was disrespectful of her to stare at a guy she just met
"I'm sorry y-you just look a bit tired" she said while bowing her head to show respect towards the guy
"I get that a lot" he chuckled.
"Are you here to join?" The guy asked
"W-well uhm"
when aria was about to answer..
"Yes we are and we're actually pretty late" Tricia said in a hurried tone.
Tricia pulled her again but this time they were running as they left the tall boy wearing black leather jacket wondering"That girl looks familiar"
When the reached to the music room a girl asked them
"How may we help you young ladies?"
"We are here to audition" Tricia said
"Then follow me" she said
"Guys" she said as she clapped her hands to get the attention of every single person in the room " you see these young ladies here wants to audition to our club how about giving them some proper introduction before the perform let me start I am Thana Lim the secretary and the spokesperson of the music club"
"Kyle Allegra drummer"
"Sheyara Lim Bass"
"Adrian Amari i play the electric guitar"
"Lucas Bren the president"
"Our lead guitarist is not here yet but you kay start Introducing yourselves" than said while smiling at the 2 ladies
"Tricia Callisto" she said excitedly
" And I am Arialla Venice Frontal"
Ugh what am i even doing here
I'm so embarrassed
"Let us see your talent" Tricia played the guitar and was accepted immediately while Aria doesn't know what to present
I don't think i can do this
This is nerve wrecking
"She can sing" tricia said excitedly while pointing a finger towards Aria " T-tricia" she mumbled "show us what you got". The guy gave her the microphone "Goodluck Aria" he smirked
A soft and beautiful voice came from her mouth "in another life i would be your girl" all of them were shocked hearing Aria's voice except for her friend Tricia continuesly she sang " we keep all our promises be us against the world" speechlessly they watched aria "in another life i would make you stay" tears came out of arias eyes "so I don't have to say you were the one that got away" she sang while her tears continue to fall down "the one that got away" she sang with a trembling voice
All of them clapped their hands applauding Aria, Aria finds it very comforting. Listening to people applause and scream she calmed herself down and said "Thank you".
"You see we don't have any vocalists here so Ms. Arialla will be our lead vocalist is that okay with you?" Sheyara asked
"Yes that would be great thank you" she said shyly
"Since we also lacked someone who'll play guitar Ms.Tricia will you accept?"
"Yes yes thank you" Tricia answered while smiling widely
Aria and Tricia got accepted as members
After the Audition Aria and Tricia walked home together since they live not so far from each other
"First step success Aria once you get famous you can finally get back at them"Tricia said as she stopped walking
"Yeah this is only the beginning watch me bring hell to them" Aria answered
But what really happened to Aria
Aria was a talented campus queen in their school who had a really bad attitude she had friends but when she was down on her knees only one person stood by her side and that was Tricia. The students gave her a nickname she was the so called "Queen" whenever everyone looks at her with terrified eyes afraid of being picked on but one incident made her change it was when she had her heart broken
No one really knew what happened to Aria only her Ex and herself. There's not a single thing left on Aria but the urge to get revenge
When she got home her parents welcomed her with disappointed look on their face
"So you're really gonna throw away those dreams we want you to achieve because of music" her mom said angrily
"Since you're so stubborn you only know how to listen to yourself might as well live by yourself" her dad said while picking up the bags that are infront of them
Aria already read the situation and picked up the bags and walked away
"That brat really"
She has no place to stay to sh doesn't want to disturb her friend
She looked for an apartment
With the money she had she can rent an apartment for 2 months and feed herself also to cover up for her expenses
She looked everywhere but there were no space left then she went to the apartment near the college she applied to luckily there is still space left but she'll have a roommate.
She agreed because she'll pay less expenses. But her roommate is not home yet that's why she'll have that room all for herself just for today. The room has 2 bedroom 1 kitchen 1toilet and a small living exactly what she's looking for.
After some time she felt sleepy then slept peacefully
The next day 6:00 am Aria woke up to buy some breakfast
When she entered the apartment Aria bumped to someone
"Sorry" she said as she bowed her head
"It's okay" the guy chuckled when aria was going to look at the persons face her phone rang
"Hello" she said as she puts her phone near her ear
"Hurry up we're going to be late" the girl on the other line shouted
Oh yeah right we have practice
"I'm really sorry sir i was in a hurry" she apologetically said
"no it's fine" he answered
"I may or may not be your roommate" he said while smiling.
When Aria looked up he was shocked to see her co member leaning against the door
"It's you Mr. I look tired but i always say I'm fine" she said while pointing at the taller male
" Hey i have a name you know" he said jokingly
"Oh you have one?" She said tilting her head while looking at the guy
"I forgot to introduce my self I am Jaeden Rhyse" he said while smiling
"No one asked" Aria said as she walked away
"What a great attitude you have miss i bumped into someone but didn't even have time to say sorry I'm sure we'll get along very well" he said while smirking
Aria's POV
When I reached the studio they we're already practicing
"Sorry I'm late" I said as i walked towards my friend who's already practicing the guitar
"Perfect timing we actually need a vocalist" adrian said while holding his red electric guitar
I went towards Adrian and whispered "shall we start"
It took a while for me to realize what i just did. When i finally realize Adrian was already a blushing mess
"I-I am sorry i didn't mean to do that" i apologetically said while holding his hands making him blush more
"N-no it's okay" he said while pulling his arms
What am I thinking
I was panicking too much then suddenly the door opened revealing a tall man wearing a white shirt and ripped jeans
"Morning everyone" he said while smiling
I was shocked to see him at the same time inwas panicking so i ended up screaming
"You! Why are you here?!" I screamed getting the attention of every single member of the music club
Ugh why did i even said that
He walked towards me while saying "I am the lead guitarist Jaeden Rhyse got a problem with that"
I don't know why but everything about him irritates me from the way he talks to the way he moves.
" I am your vocalist nice to meet you too" I said proudly to avoid being so embarassed
" You seem very close " Tricia Mockingly said while smirking
"She's my-" as he was about to say that he was my roommate i immediately covered his filthy mouth
" He's my friend " i said while nervously smiling. He immediately nods agreeing the what i said
" But aren't I your only friend? " Tricia asked while looking at me with a confused face
" He's my childhood friend we met at the playground " i answered while laughing nervously avoiding eye contact
Fortunately Tricia believed it
" You owe me one " he said while smirking
We continued to practice at first i made a lot of mistake because i was distracted by this man called Jaeden
On the way home the road was pretty slippery because of the rain i was about to fall when suddenly a certain someone catched me fortunately i didn't fall on the ground but unfortunately i fell into the strong arms of Jaeden Rhyse causing the both of us to fall
He fell on top of me but luckily he protected my head but the worst part is i ended up kissing the man i hate so much. That was not my first kiss but that was the kiss I could never forget. My world suddenly stops and the streets looked like empty and shining that was the first time i felt that i can also here my heart beating so fast. It was so fast that i was slowly losing my mindi melting to the kiss. But then the sound of a clicking camera made me come back to my senses.
"Y-you jerk W-what was that! you pervert ?! " I screamed. I was so embarassed I didn't know what to do.
"W-was it your first?" he asked while looking away
"N-no" i said the a sudden realization hits me which made me look at the opposite side of the road
"caught on 4k!" it was my best friend who took the photo
"why were you here?" i asked while i was panicking not knowing what to do
Tricia's POV
I was walking home when i saw my Best friend Aria with our lead guitar i knew there was something between them so i followed them. I didn't saw anything exciting so i decided that i should go back but then i heard a loud bang and when i looked at the opposite road i saw my friend kissing it was a once in a life time opportunity so i took a picture of it
"Hahaha knew item added my album "Every Moments of Aria" she'll be very embarassed when she sees this" i said to my self happily
Back to Aria's point of view
"So That's what happened" i sighed in relief
"why are you both together are you perhaps going on a date?" Tricia said while smirking
" I was walking her home i couldn't let my FRIEND walk by herself it's pretty dangerous" he answered while smiling
" Being a gentleman aren't we. Anyways i have to go see you tomorrow!" Tricia shouted as she runs away
"Good save" i said while tapping his shoulder
" Let's go home shall we " he said as he was reaching his hands towards me
I grabbed his hands and walked with him towards our apartment he was a nice guy that's what i can say.
(Aria's Dream)
" You're such a slut "
" Freak!"
" I wish i never met you"
Aria dreamed about her highschool days when she was on here knees being treated differently. Being the girl everyone hates because of a misunderstanding more like a fake rumor
Aria's Pov when i woke up i saw a man next to me holding my hands
"You are that girl right?" i was dumbfounded when i heard what he said
"w-what?" i asked nervously knowing whay he meant
" You are that girl from highschool right the girl called campus queen who was dethroned due to the rumors that spread in the whole campus" he said while his head was facing the floor
" Yes so what?! of course you're one of them right?!" i shouted furiously
" I knew they were fake please let me reintroduce my self i am Jaeden Rhyse Montefalco the man you were rumoured with Miss Arialla Venice Frontal"
Everything happened so fast I did not expect any of these
" I was ruined too by your ex Ace Arceo. You want revenge right? so do I " he said while holding my hands " I'll help you
I looked at him only to see his face full of anger
" Classes will start in a month we will have lots of time to prepare for it first we have to change we have to be more appealing and happy" he said while smirking
" why?" i said confusely
"The best revenge is showing people how fine and happy you are" he said while caressing my face
" Join me let's bring Ace Arceo and Estella Veronica Lyvia down to where they belong" he said as he was reaching his hands towards me. Without hesitation I grabbed it.
Those were just mere words of him but i can feel the anger on his face and his voice the perfect partner for revenge. The game will now begin just wait for us Ace and Estella
