Aphmau POV 

--------------------------------------------

Brushing myself onto the stage, I almost missed Jay fiddling with buttons of a pirate's cape in the shadows.

In fact, it was not only the darkness that helped him hide, it was his new colored hair.

It was now a dark red, similar to mahogany, but brighter.

"Hey Foxy." I joked.

He jumped, startled, and turned his eyes to me. "Oh, hi Mari."

I snorted. "Is everything set up and running okay?"

"Yep. I have a fog machine to make this more eerie, and I'm going to hang a see-through, invisible curtain that sends static lines across the fabric, making the stage look like an old TV. Or as you put it, 'fizz out'."

I smiled. This was great.

"That's amazing! You weren't kidding when you said you had everything under control!"

"What can I say? I am awesome!" He said jokingly.

"Whatever."

I scanned the clock on the far side of the wall. 

6:30 PM

Holy Irene!

I'd been partying for quite some time.

"Should I get changed?" I asked.

He checked the clock.

"Not unless you want to. You have a good 15 min left. Unless you want to."

"Alright!"

I dashed out of the stage room to find Aaron.

A few minutes later of searching, I saw him.

He was uncomfortably trying to avoid a few flirty girls, but failing.

"Aaron!" I called.

An expression of relief appeared on his face, while the other girl's eyed me with disgust.

He tried to go to me, but one of the girl's grabbed his arm.

"Babe, who is this?" Asked one in a girly pink dress.

"My friend." Aaron growled through clenched teeth, trying to shake off the girl. "And I'm not your 'babe' so let go."

"But babe, can't you see I'm so much better than her!" She whined.

"Actually, Aphmau here is ten times prettier than you'll ever be in years." Aaron grunted, pushing the girl off.

I blushed at that.

She sent me a venomous glare and stalked angrily off.

Aaron sighed. "Thanks for coming, I was going to be cornered."

"Your welcome. I'm here to tell you I have to go to the talent show in a bit! Wish me luck!"

"Good luck Aphmau!"

"Thanks!"

I ran back into the backstage, where several other people were waiting.

At least 15 or so other people.

I was surprised to see Ivy and her gang being one of the people.

She sneered at me. "Don't even bother Aphmoo. I'm going to win."
