"Eden, please, wait," Chapa shouted. The young superhero tried to keep up with the upset girl. Eden kept walking down the hill, backpack slung over one shoulder. Chapa huffed as she saw Eden take out her phone. The red haired girl kept calling after her, but she didn't listen. Chapa only saw one option, a red glowing lightning bolt left her fingertips and hit the smartphone of the brunette.
"What the hell, Chapa!?" Eden dropped her burned phone and looked up with a face full of disbelief. Chapa slowly approached the shocked girl. "Do you have any idea how long I've worked to pay for this phone?!"
"Look, I'm sorry, I'll pay you back but would you please just listen to me?" Eden sighed and gestured for Chapa to continue. "I'm sorry I was rude to you, I'm just not used to having someone new around me. The four of us have been solving crime for a while and it's strange that suddenly somebody else tags along. I just need to get used to it. I need to get used to you."
Eden peered at the dusty ground and mumbled, "Still doesn't give you the excuse to be a jerk." Chapa nodded shamefully with her hands in the pockets of her jacket. "I know, I don't need you to forgive me either, I just want you to know I'm sorry," she cleared her throat, "would you maybe wanna go to Hip Hop Puree for a Sorry Smoothie?" Eden was hesitating but agreed with a muttered 'okay, fine'.
At Hip Hop Puree
Eden Young was slurping her way through her third puree when she finally decided to speak; "This is really good!" Chapa laughed and responded "I've noticed." A small smile grew on the brunette's lips as she said; "You're actually quite okay, still angry about my phone though." The redhead chuckled quietly; "I guess you're fine too," she admitted. A small smile grew on the red haired girl's face, too.
A beeping noise came from Chapa's phone, she put her cup down and checked the screen. Chapa jumped up and groaned; "Emergency call." Eden was still slurping at her straw, minding her own business. Chapa looked at her with awaiting eyes; "Well? What are you waiting for?" Eden crossed her arms not moving from her spot. Chapa sighed and leaned her arms on the backrest of her chair, she worked her jaw and said; "Alright, so this is how it's going to be huh? Okay," she cleared her throat and pinched her eyes shut, "Fine, Eden, we need you. Without you this mission will fail." Her voice so low, chills ran up Eden's back.
ARDEN KELLY
"That's it for today, amazing job girls!"
I swallow roughly, my throat running dry. A burning red blush creeps up my cheeks, a knot is getting tighter in my abdomen. Havan helps me up from my seat and wraps her arm around my shoulder, leading me off set.
"What's got you all flustered Miss Kelly?" She hushes in that same deep voice, causing my heart to beat faster than it already did. A small smirk grew on her lips, she knows exactly what she's doing to me. Her thumb softly strokes small circles on my shoulder blade. I glance around alerted, hoping no one is nearby. Havan grins and whispers; "Relax, this can be interpreted as a friendly gesture."
Separating our ways, my hand grabbing the handle of my dressing room door. Before I go inside to get dressed, I turn my head over my shoulder and glance at Havan, trying to hide a smile. Turning my head back in front of me, I shut the door behind me. I take a deep breath and slump down on the chair in front of the vanity. Cleaning the bit of make-up off of my face with wipes, I move on to taking my suit off. I grab my phone from my pocket and double tap on the screen, being greeted by a picture of Havan and I laughing after a failed opportunity of doing a smoulder after watching Tangled. Opening my Notes app before typing all the ideas I got for a first and well-deserved date with her. A small knock lands on the wooden surface of my dressing room door. Once I open the door, it reveals Dana with a big smile that reaches the apples of her cheeks. I take a step back, thinking it would have been Havan.
"Hey, girl!" Dragging out her words, she greeted me.
"Hi!" I exclaim, trying to ignore the tiredness in the back of my mind.
Dana invites herself in my dressing room and takes a seat on the small couch that's situated in the corner of the room. I raise my eyebrows and chuckle, sitting down next to her. "So what's the news?" I questioned.
The girl grins and shows me a letter wrapped in an orange envelope. She starts reading the letter aloud. "Dear Miss Dana Heath, Hereby we would like to inform you that you and your fellow castmates have been nominated for the best family show of the year. Congratulations, we hope to see you there! Kind regards, the KCA team."
"I'm so proud of you, D!"
My eyes grow wide, both Dana and I jump up and bounce around the small room. We both scream from excitement until I stop jumping in circles. "Hold on, how come that you only received a letter and not the others?" Dana shrugs right before another knock lands on the door. I swing it open to see Mike with a huge smile, he hands me over the same orange envelope as Dana's. Turning my head to look back at Dana, her eyes growing with enthusiasm. I rip the envelope open and it reveals the same letter, the only thing that has changed is the name it's addressed too. My name. I look up at Mike and he's still smiling but now he's nodding his head, confirming my thoughts. "I'm going too? But the third season isn't out yet, people don't know who I am."
Mike rests his hand on my shoulder; "You need to be there with us, you are our family now, too. You deserve it, Arden."
When I hear the door from the other side of the hallway close, I see Havan's head popover Mike's shoulder. I sniffle my nose and run up to her figure, wrapping my arms around her neck. She's taken aback but holds me with a questionable look. "I'm invited to the KCA's with you guys!" Havan's eyes light up and she holds me closer.
"We're nominated again?! Holy shit! Oh my God, congrats, Ar!"
I let go, not trying to be suspected of having a more than friendly thing going on with one of my co-stars. "Wait! What do I do if you win? Do I go on stage with you or not, because I wasn't in the second season. People might think it's weird I'd go with you because actually I didn't win the award, you did! What do I wear? Does the slime wash off easily? Do you have to take a lot of interviews because I have never been interviewed before! I don't know what to say; what do you say in an interview?"
THIRD POINT OF VIEW
Dana reaches forward grabbing the face of the panicking teenage girl in both her hands; "Easy girl, you're going to be fine. It's not as big of a deal as you think it is. And of course you can come on sage with us IF we win, we don't know for sure if we're going home with an award. We still have more than a month to prepare. We'll explain and teach you anything you need to know and which questions you need to dodge in an interview, right Hava?" Dana looks to the left to see Havan staring at the hands of the Afro-American girl and where they are placed, on the blushing cheeks of Arden.
"Havan?" When the red haired girl comes back to reality she's greeted by her friend and her roommate she likes to kiss every so often. "What?"
Dana smiles and says; "I think you both should go home and get some sleep. I'll see you soon, okay?" Arden nods and grabs Havan's pointer finger to drag her along to the carpark. Right before they reach the backdoor to get to Luca's car, Havan stops her special 'friend' and cups Arden's face, pressing a quick kiss to her lips. Havan then opens the door for Arden, who is stunned by the redhead's previous action, and whispers; "I'm the only one who gets to hold your face like that."
After she said that she walks to the car where their friend is already waiting for them. Arden stays put in the doorway, processing what just happened. "Are you coming or what?" Shouts Havan. A little smirk grows on the lips of Arden as she finally feels her legs walking her to the car, catching up with the taller girl, who just got jealous for the first time since they met.
