*RIA'S P.O.V.*

"Alright, nice to meet all of you, my name is Mellony, and we shall start this camp with the first activity. You have three minutes, no more, no less, to describe and introduce yourselves. Since you all look pretty nervous, I guess I shall start the ball rolling." she said it in a squeaky, and sharp voice that I was starting to get annoyed with.

"As you already know, my name is Mellony. I really like dancing, so my co-curricular activity is Modern Dance. My favorite color is blue, I'm in EXPRESS 04, it's my sophomore year this year," and blah blah blah..

I zoned out completely, thinking of that boy with the cheekbones earlier on. He reminded me so much of two of my best friends, who were also my ex crushes, Ian and Aric.

Ian was super charming, I remembered that time when I borrowed his homework to copy, and I was rushing it at the bottom of the stairs at a sacred place behind our old school. My handwriting was sloppy as hell, and I made a ton of mistakes, but he pointed all of them out and let out a cute giggle every time I made one. He was quite a flirt, I must say, and had girls coming at him like he was a chick magnet. After all, he had the charm, could sing, play guitar, and was killer at basketball and hockey.

Aric on the other hand, he was such a playboy, and flirt like it was nobody's business. He was the most popular guy then, and was many girls' crush. After all, he was the captain of the hockey team, cute as hell, and super hot. We hung out a lot, and many a times most girls would glare at us (mostly me) and he would start 'flirting' with me. We would call each other 'babe' and treat each other like we were dating, especially in front of the attention whores which flung themselves at him. It was our thing, but girls would shoot me death glares, and both of us would just laugh it off and anger them even more.

Cheekbones though, he was a huge flirt I would say, but he's both charming and hot at the same time, as if he was made up of both Ian and Aric, and I might actually have fallen head over heels for him.

"Ria, Ria! Ria!!"

"Huh"

"It's your turn next!" Anne nudged me.

"What t- oh. " I snapped back into reality

"Right. Err.. k first of all I go by Ria," as I said that, the other group members looked really confused.

Hold the death glare in, you're supposed to be liking everyone, remember? You can do this Ria, you can do this.

"Then why d-"

That does it.

"Well that's because my full name is Ira Alexandria Mason. Back in second grade there was a kid named Ira in my class, so my teacher asked me if she could call me Alexandria instead, I agreed, and after that because five syllables was too long for a name, everyone started calling me Ria." I cut the boy who asked the question, without hesitation, off.

"I'm on a scholarship for music, and I play violin," I continued, "I also love dancing, running, swimming, volleyball, basketball, I basically play and love almost every single sport. Well I'm born in October, which makes me a libra. I pursue fairness, peace and harmony, and am a firm believer of justice."

I shot the people a faint glare, concealed by one of my realest 'fake smiles' I could muster. Those were pretty easy though, I just had to squint a little, and make it look like my bottom eyelids were wrinkled.

A/N

Hey, it's me again (: told you guys this chapter would be up soon. Anyways, I think Ria sounds really cunning to me, what's she up to?

Just a little extra info for you, the events in this story are based on my life, like I had an orientation camp (a really boring one), I just take them and write them based on how Ria would react in them.

Also, Ria's character is based on Helena in this story I read in my literature book called 'The Martyrdom of Helena Rodrigues' (it's a really cool story so do check it out!!)

Till chapter 3,

Ciao,

M (:
