I Dream of Aria
Dodge ball to the face
Previous ChapterNext ChapterMe? Why did Aria pick me? Still, I didn't want to protest, this could be my chance to get to know her better. So anyway, the teams were set. Rainbow Dash, Amethyst Star, Derpy, and Bulk Biceps, against Aria, Fido, Octavia Melody, and me. The teams had been set and things were about to ugly from the way I saw Aria and Rainbow Dash looking at each other. I was nervously sweating, and shaking, and biting my lip. But what really scared me was what happened just before Coach Ace blew his whistle. Aria turned to me, and blew me a kiss. A creepy, smug looking kiss. And she winked at me at the same time. She had something planned, I just didn't what.
As well all lined on the gymnasium floor, Coach Ace was throwing down dodge balls down on the gymnasium floor. Aria walked over towards me, holding a dodge ball at hand. She gave me slight smirk, "Well, well, well, if it isn't lover boy." said, mockingly, "Mind if I, like, call you that?" she asked. I shook my head. Aria smirked and brushed her fingers through my cheek down to my chin, looking at in a daze. She leaned in closer to, nervously, I stepped back, but for some reason, she held my hand pulled my back. The gym was watching, looking at bit surprised. Smirking at me Aria closely leaned in and softly blew into my ear. A cold shiver ran down my back, and felt, really bizarre inside. Quietly laughing, Aria handed me the dodge ball she had in her hands. Frowning at me straight forward, with a bit of anger. "Don't blow this for me." she whispered, as she raised her hand and poked my scar with her finger nail, "Unless you want me to...paint you another one of my pictures."
That there really scared me. What kind of girl was Aria Blaze. She was a mystery that just wanted to make me, well, go after her. Walking away from me, I turned around and found some of my gym classmates were staring at us. I began to blush nervously, "How long have you guys been standing there?" I asked.
"The whole time." replied Fido.
At that point, I heard Coach Ace blow his whistle. It looked like Dodge Ball was about to kick off. Every one gathered up around Coach Ace, so I did as well, listening to what he had to say.
"Alright gang," began Coach Ace, "I clean game...so No Cussing. Everything else is legal, you're hit with a ball you're out, a person catches your thrown ball, you're out. Grab a dodge ball and get out there."
Every took their stance on the gym floor. All was silent. I looked around to find the tension building up in the room. Arai and Rainbow Dash were looking at each other with angry faces. Fido was cowering on the floor, and Derpy was waving at me from the opposite team. I turned to Bulk, who had a pissed off look, and was holding a dodge ball in hand. He grunted and pointed at me, giving a thumbs down. Shit was about to go down.
*Whistle blows.
Coach Ace's whistle started the game, everyone moved out of the way as Rainbow Dash threw the first ball. Light lighting it zipped through the room, and it nearly hit me on the arm, and hitting the gym wall, slightly cracking it. I turned back to look at Rainbow Dash, who had a smug grin on her face. "I'm taking you DOWN new kid!" she yelled.
As dodge balls began to get thrown, I was running around panicking. "Pull yourself together you idiot!" I heard Aria shouting. I quickly realized I was making myself look foolish, again. I didn't want Aria to think any more less of me than she already does. So, I picked up a dodge ball and threw it as hard as I could. The whole gym stopped what they were doing and stared at my thrown ball, which went...about 5 feet away. The whole class began to laugh. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!" Aria yelled from across the gym.
"Hey Arron, nice arm!" laughed Rainbow Dash, "You should join the Marching Band!" Hearing the class laugh made me embarrassed. But mostly, angry. I never felt anger before, and hearing it come from someone I didn't even knew was just, infuriating. I looked at Rainbow Dash, laughing and pointing at me, as did the entire class. I was so angry I lost it. I went to Pick up my dodge ball, and I threw it again. This time, I whipped Rainbow Dashes face clean off. I swung my arm back, did a back step, and released. As RD kept laughing, I threw the ball and it went zipping by so fast, RD didn't even see it. She was laughing at first, and then the next minuet...
POW! Right in the kisser!
(I know...emotions aren't cool to add in the story, but trust me. This time it goes with it.)
The whole class was shocked. Coach Ace blew his whistle and ran over to the gym floor. Slowly moving the other students aside, she squatted down to see if Rainbow Dash was alright. "Dashie!" he yelled. "DASHIE! SPEAK TO ME!!" Rainbow Dash laid on the floor with a bloody nose and seeing stars.
"I like Pancakes." said RD in a daze.
Coach ace slapped his forehead. "Time out!" he called. The whole class groaned. They all turned around and looked at me like if I just committed murder. Everyone had a shocked or angry expression on their face. I turned to Derpy, who was frowning at me, like if I had just ate her muffin. Bulk was right next to her crying his butt off like a 5 month old child. The whole class slowly shook their heads at me. Everyone took their seat back on the bleachers. As I was walking down, Aria passed by me, and tapped my shoulder.
"Nice arm Arron. I missed judged you." I heard her voice telling. She just complimented me. I don't get her. I just don't get her. As the nurses arrived to take Rainbow Dash to the nurses office, couch Ace walked up to the class. "Listen up!" he said.
"I'm goanna step out, no is allowed to leave the gym floor or do anything till I get back. Got it!?"
The class nodded. As Ace stepped out of the gym, I began to hear the whispers of the whole class judging me.
"What a freak."
"I can't believe he did that."
"Is Dash going to be okay?"
At that point Derpy walked up to me. "Hey Arron." she said softly, "That was...uh, some arm you had their." I didn't answer. I had my face buried in my hands, blushing with embarrassment. "Are you okay?" asked Derpy.
"...No." I replied, "I'm pathetic."
"No you're not, you're just having an off day."
"Really?"
"Of course. You'll see. This is just a small case of bad luck."
Maybe, Ditzy was right. I's just over exaggerating. As we sat together on the bleachers, I couldn't help but stare at Aria. Why game was she trying to play with me? I watched at the bleachers across from ours, watching Aria listening to her MP3 player. First her ordeal in art class and now she's this. I had to know what type of girl she was. I slowly stood up and walked up to her. "Arron?" asked Derpy, "where are you going?" I didn't answer. As I walked down the bleachers and across to the other bleachers the class stared. I slowly walked up the bleachers ad sat down next to Aria. She immediately noticed and looked at me. Not with delight.
"Why are you here?" she asked.
"Just thought I get to know you better." I replied.
"What?" she replied.
"Yeah, I want to talk with you." Aria looked at me with a confused face. Someone wanted to talk with her. A boy, wanting to talk with her. At first, Aria thought it was a joke.
"You're kidding right?"
"No, I want to talk. Tell me about yourself." I asked. The whole class was surprised to see me sitting next to one of the meanest girls in school, Aria. Aria looked at me like if I was crazy.
"Are you on crack?" she asked. "Because if you are, I know a guy who can score some for you at cheap price."
I laughed. "No, I'm sober. I just want to get to know you. Ya' know, like...friends."
Aria froze up. "Friends? With me?" she asked. "You want to be my friend?" I nodded with a smile, and asked her about her favorite hobbies. But I just got more confused looks. "You want to be friends with me?" she kept asking.
"Yes. Tell me about yourself. What's your favorite hobby?"
Aria shook her head and slowly stood up. "Okay Arron. Listen to me very carefully." she said. "I...don't...like you. And I never will. So please leave me alone." At that point, I began to get confused myself.
"Wait, what?" I began to question her. "What is wrong with you? What was all that awhile ago? Picking me for your team and...and, that kiss you blew me?"
At that point, Aria's began to blush. "Well...I, um...Uh, um, Just because I felt like it, Okay!" At that point, I knew she had a crush on me.
"Oh, I get it." I said with a smirk. "You like me, but you don't anyone to find out because it'll ruin your Bad Girl reputation!"
Aria immediately panicked, got up from her seat and socked him in the chest. I gasped, and clenched my heart, as if I was having a heart attack. Her hard fist hitting me was like I had taken a bullet to the head. The whole gym class began freaking out.
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"Oh SNAP!"
Aria grabbed me from my chin and lifted my face up to her. Face to face I saw the rage and fear in her eyes. "Listen to me carefully Arron." she grunted as push me down the bleachers onto the gym floor. She slowly walked down and picked up one of the dodge balls on the floor. As I slowly got and turned to her, I saw her eyeballing me with a evil like smirk. "You are nothing. And I can live without you." At that point, she threw the dodge ball at me. And the last thing I saw, was her smirk. But apparently, Coach Ace walked in as the dodge ball hit. He saw me go down, and the last thing I heard was his whistle blowing...
