At School
As everyone already knows... Allen and Aria both goes to the same school... They are both currently at their second year of high school...
Allen Rivamare, known as Prince Allen...The little brother of the Student council president. Allen was known to be a genius, a very handsome and polite gentle man.
(But in reality, he is actually an easy-to-be-scared jerk, a narcissist, and hot headed though...)- Aria
(Ahem!- i know what you are thinking!!!💢💢) -Allen
Aria Okizamu, A girl who always wear a make-up and hangs out with the popular girls in her classroom...Their always topic is about Korean stuffs and she always catch up on trends. She is like any other high school girls nowadays...
(But that is fake news. She hates wearing make-ups and hates being on trends...She hates Korean stuffs and actually likes anime more than anything... She is a total Nerd...)-Allen
(I DON'T REMEMBER TELLING YOU MY INTERESTS!!!) -Aria
Allen knew about what Aria's interest through what is the things that Aria always thinks about...
The things that keeps them away from being themselves are everyone who are mostly at school.
Expectations, Interests, Personalities... Everything was changed just so that the two could fit in.
They did some things that they don't really want to do and made them live like a lie...
They have been wearing a mask that shows an image that everyone wants to see and acts with it... These things made them both uncertain to who they really are...
The only ones in their surroundings that knows the truth are only themselves.
During physics, They would not go for the schedule of their subjects are different and if either one of them would be drenched in sweat, the other one would also be drenched in sweat...
They would mostly excuse themselves and go to the school infirmary and would secretly read books...
Aria reads Manga while Allen would read Fantasy novels...
"Why do you like reading fantasy novels?" Aria asks while reading her Manga
"I'll answer if you tell me first why you like reading manga..." Allen says this to counter back the question that Aria asked to him
Aria stayed quiet and and moved on to the next page of her book and stared at it for a few seconds and then answered Allen's question...
"Because, It looks cool!" Aria answered to Allen, proudly
"Now you answer my question. Are you in love with someone?" Aria asked
Allen stood up and talked to Aria angrily...
"WAIT- That's a different question now isn't it???"- Allen
Allen stayed up for a while and gave it a thought...
(Someone i like?...) Allen asks himself inside his mind as he looks towards Aria and suddenly blushed...
(No no no No NO WAY!!! THERE IS NO WAY THAT I LIKE THAT WOMAN!!! NO!! NO!! NO!!) Allen tries hard to deny it himself but he could tell that his heart beat is racing like crazy
Allen totally forgot that they could share the same thoughts and Aria catched-up what he was thinking at those times...
(So You Have A Crush!) Aria says this using telepathy... She was surprised and amused that her emotions made her eyes shine to what she have learned about Allen...
"Ahem! You wanted to know why i liked fantasy novels right?" Allen tries to change the subject
"Nope. I wan't to know who you likes" Aria moved on to the next thing that she wants to know about Allen while having an expression full of amusement.
"YOU TOTALLY MOVED ON TO THE NEXT THING THAT YOU WANT TO KNOW!!!" Allen said with a violent reaction
Luckily, the school nurse wasn't there at those times...
"Anyway, I read fantasy novels because i'm finding a way to reverse this ring matter that binds us together like a curse." Allen answered with an embarrassed face that he tries hard not to show.
But in truth, He just like stuffs like wizards and magics... He might not look like those kinds of persons but...when he is lonely, he would read some fantasy stories and believed that one day, he could have a happy ending too...
Regarding to the ring, it is magical so... He actually enjoys it a little bit because he was able to express his true self to someone and the same also goes for Aria.
The two might not say anything about it but... They don't hate it at all. They are actually more happy now that they could be their true selves and somebody is there for them.
During break times, they would already be surrounded by their 'Friends' and would talk about a lot of things...
Allen would just be there listening while wearing a fake smile...While, Aria would try her best to catch up with the topic and would just laugh when everyone laughs...
But that was until they discovered the ring... Since they wore it and had gotten to know each other, They would just sit by, near the window and talk to each other using telepathy.
(It seems that nobody can see the rings in our fingers...)-Aria
(STUPID- You just noticed it now?)-Allen
(Can you say something nice? Even if it's just once in a while?)-Aria says, irritated
(Impossible.)-Allen
In spite of how they talk to each other, They are actually in good terms...
(Hey...So how is it with your ex-boyfriend?)- Allen asks
(I don't know anymore...)-Aria
(Have you ever thought of getting revenge from them?)-Allen
(I might have...and you know what?)-Aria
(No Not Yet...)-Allen
"I really wanted to kill them both for doing that to me! They even acted nice to me!! How dare they Betray me!!! I trusted them..."-Aria says
The feelings of being betrayed are one of the emotions that drives people to either be hurt and never trust anyone anymore or it could also lead the person to try and seek revenge to the ones who betrayed them...
(Don't murder anyone while the ring is on us. I don't wan't to be drenched in blood. And it would be really troublesome if someone i know kills somebody.)-Allen says this with his 'i don't want to get involved with something troublesome' voice... with a hidden intention of wanting her to not do something she might regret.
Because, as soon as Aria answered his Question...He already knew that Aria was being serious to what she said according to her tone...
(How about trying to get rid of those make-ups and just try to fix your hair?)- Allen
(I would never be able to be with my friends if ever they saw me as a plain-looking girl...)-Aria
(Aria...You're half-Japanese right?)-Allen
(Yeah...What about it?...)-Aria
(Why don't you just try the looks of the ones that cosplays?)-Allen
(The make-up is even thicker this time...isn't it?) -Aria says this as she lets out a sigh
(What i want to suggest is that, do a make-up that looks more natural. Can't you catch up with my thoughts?)-Allen
(Hmmm...ok, i'll try it.)-Aria agrees for she also think that the idea that Allen thought of, could also be a very good idea
*Bells* the bell that signifies the end of break time has rang and classes starts...
During their classes...They would sometimes secretly sleep and play rock-paper-scissors inside their dreams...
Allen would always win and Aria would lose all the time...
There were also times that they would listen to class and Allen would help Aria understand their lessons and help her with answering questions asked by the teachers...
Aria would occasionally tell stories from what she had read in her manga stories that has a fantasy setting... Allen would listen intently to what Aria is telling her.
The two of them have already become good friends that they could rely to and be comfortable with...
Could this be the effect of the rings?
Maybe... It could also be their feelings of wanting to be more honest with themselves that helps make them closer...
In this very short time that they have met. They already have this strong relationship that no one could break...
A few more days later and they started to hang out with each other, more than with their so called 'Friends' and would eat meals together...
They would even share foods that they eat and would treat each other with drinks from time to time...
Their 'Friends' who have noticed it either tried to cheer them on or feel jealous to Aria who they thought were dating with Allen who is very popular in their school...
And so, a lot of haters were gathered and secretly plans to corner the two of them...
They would gather at some places to discuss the matter regarding with Allen and Aria...
What possibly are they planning to do? Is this thing that they are planning, going to be a really bad thing that would harm the two of them?
