Dad can't buy me

Aria and Eva wanted to dig a grave when they hesitatingly turned to Alan who was trying his best not to react looking at the field.

Eva wasn't whispering and her low voice reached Alan's sharp ears.

Aria covered both burning cheeks and watched the match without saying a single word or cheering.

Eva had straightened her back and sat like a soulless robot till the second match finished with Elite school winning the match.

Alan would occasionally glance at Aria who was blushing and trying to maintain a poker face. He understood naive looking girl Eva was slightly perve. Bold and tough behaving Aria was demure.

Soon grim-faced Rian and Noah arrived and flicked on heads of Aria and Eva who didn't give any reaction from the beginning to the end of the match. "What the hell is wrong with you two? You two would shout on top of your lungs to cheer us in practice matches. Here you two..."

Eva and Aria forced a smile at them making them confused.

Eva cut in, "I will see you all tomorrow." She ran away saving herself. She was used to teasing Aria in front of Rian and Noah but after knowing Alan heard her explicit comments, she couldn't face him or stay around.

The duo looked at Aria whose face was slightly red glowing under sunsetting rays.

Aria was thinking what to do, A player from another school approached her. "Hey! May I cut in?"

Alan didn't care to raise his head. The trio looked at the source of the voice.

A refined and poised boy kept his eyes on Aria and smiled endearingly, "Hi! I'm Finn Stanley."

Alan's brows twitched hearing the name. Finn Stanley was an heir of Stanley's family whose entire family served in the military in different fields. They hold quite a power in B city.

Aria looked at him and hesitatingly shook her hand. "Can we help you with something?"

Noah and Rian alternated their gaze between two expecting some sparks and fire. Alan clenched his fist tight and waited to hear them.

Finn smiled again, "Aria right? You are beautiful so as your dance moves."

Aria didn't reply and her face turned cold not understanding his intention.

Finn didn't miss the changes. "Don't worry! I'm not here to steal you from President Morgan. Take care." He left lightly rubbing her head in adoration.

Pfft -

Rian and Noah burst into laughter and repeated the same line in unison, "I'm not here to steal you from President Morgan. Bye."

Aria: "..."

'Can somebody tell me what to do?' Aria thought to herself not daring to look at Alan. She gritted her teeth remembering the trio left her just like that.

Alan saw her turning a bright shade of red playing with her diamond bracelet. He waited patiently until she could manage to speak.

He had no intention to watch soccer, he thought to watch since he was already present. But he enjoyed Aria's reaction to everything instead of the game.

Aria got up and removed the blazer, "Thank you Young master Morgan for today. I will..."

Alan cut in, "I will drop you home! Go and change."

Rian and Noah were going with other players to the party which he knew. He leisurely got up and again draped the jacket over her shoulder who was thinking how to reject his offer.

'I can go? I will take a taxi? I will ask to send a car? Perfect.'

"Thank you but it's not required. I will ask Uncle Rowan to send a car." Aria looked at her shoulder and looked at him.

"Are you perhaps scared I will kidnap... steal you?" Alan raised his brows as he asked curiously reading her face.

Aria: "..."

She turned around and walked biting her lips. She wept mentally and was entering the block, Alan stopped holding her hand, "Will you be fine going alone? That incident."

Aria didn't have the answer to that. 'Will they attack me again?'

Seeing her blank face, Alan took her inside. His pace was matching hers as he walked ahead. After reaching the corridor, he spoke, "Call me if anything."

Aria nodded obediently and walked into the room where all had already left. She quickly changed and kept the dress in the locker before leaving.

Alan turned to her from his mobile. Compared to her perfect fitted cheer girl outfit, her uniform was a size bigger to her and wearing the blazer, her curves were looking just like any normal girl. Other than uniform, he only saw her in full sleeve T-shirts and shorts or jeans so he never thought she had maintained a good physique.

Seeing her holding his blazer in her forearm, his lips tilted up thinking how would it look to see her next to him daily holding his blazer in one hand and the other hand holding his arm standing close to him.

He was amazed by his own thoughts and turned away thinking when did he change so much.

After Aria reached him, he walked slowly so that Aria doesn't have to run behind him. Alan didn't care what people around them were talking but Aria's face was turning red again.

After sitting in the car, Aria carefully spoke, "Can we stop by the mobile store?"

Alan already knew about her mobile hence he nodded for it, "Are you letting them off so easily?"

Aria glanced at him before replying, "Even though she was successful in pushing me in the room, I wasn't panicked or scared and what she wanted also didn't happen. I ruined her face for breaking the mobile which Dad bought for me. If there weren't anybody else around the ground, I would have broken her bone too... (cough) I mean I would have tried to break but it is still difficult."

Alan was actually surprised knowing the reason behind her requite. "So you avenged for the mobile, not for their wicked plan."

Aria hummed nonchalantly, "It may be a thing which I can buy how many ever I want. But my Dad can't buy me anymore and I can't use this either." Aria traced the cracks on the mobile screen as she said.

Alan was taken aback. He didn't expect her to be emotional. He rubbed her head gently and became quiet until she asked.

"Isla Turner is an actress under your company. What I have done will take time to recover, aren't you mad at me for spoiling the face of Nation goddess which company trained her to create?"

Alan glanced at her before replying, "Exactly! The company trained her to reach the highest level. We can also create a new one."

Aria hummed, "But that consumes a lot of resources and time. And how did you agree to me so easily over a call without asking me anything? Now probably, her manager and Managing director of Morgan Entertainment brainstorming to get back at me."

Alan chuckled lightly hearing her think about everything, "Why do you give so much work to your little head?"

Aria didn't reply. Even though she got evidence to know Isla did push her to the room, it wasn't enough to prove what they did to her.

Aria had kicked her ankle while she stretched her legs on the ground which was too quick to notice through eyes but a slow-motion video would be sufficient to know. Even with that, Aria could say Isla was being clumsy which she actually was and she was too near to get spotlight forgetting Aria's moves.

Aria didn't expect Alan to be so cool about it when she called and asked him or when Isla Turner ended up on the ground.

If it was her father or Rowan, she wouldn't have asked, she wasn't close with Alan and she didn't wanted Alan to get pissed off if he knew about it later.
