Hey guys..I'm back! :)
For those of you who have kept up with my other story, Fix You, I will have a new chapter up for it sometime in the near future.
I had an inspiration to write this, and I've spent most of my day trying to plot this story out. This chapter is a lot of Sparia, and it is mostly just an introductory chapter. The next chapter is where the story will really begin. There's not going to be an -A, this is VERY loosely based on the show.
Enjoy! Please leave reviews, you guys are what keeps me going. :)
"Are you sure you don't want me to curl your hair?" Aria Montgomery asked her friend Spencer Hastings, who seemed to be too interested in her French textbook to respond.
"Spencer?" Aria asked again, shaking her curling wand in front of Spencer's face. Still, no answer. How can she be THAT focused on a stupid homework assignment? Aria mentally asked herself.
"Spencer!" Aria smacked the top of Spencer's head.
"Oww, what do you want?" Spencer rubbed the top of her head, tousling her naturally wavy chestnut hair.
"Let me curl it," Aria pleaded, moving her hands into a praying position.
"Why should I let you do that? It's not like anyone's actually going to notice me," Spencer laughed, rolling her eyes.
"You never know. You've bought a beautiful dress and if you really let me talk you into buying six inch heels for this dance tonight, I think I'll win the argument if you don't agree to this yourself," Aria said back. Spencer sighed loudly in response, but moved to her red chair in the corner so Aria could easily do her hair.
"Do you really think Caleb's mom actually got us a limo for tonight?" Spencer asked, breaking the silence that had gradually overcome the room.
"I hope so! She normally doesn't go back on what she tells him. I'm glad that his family moved to Rosewood, it's making Hanna really happy having them here," Aria marveled, and she was right. Ever since Caleb's birth family moved into town, Hanna had changed into a different person. Her friends figured it was just because Caleb no longer had to leave her, but they were happy for her regardless.
"What time is it? I still have to get dressed," Spencer moaned, resisting the urge to toss her head back.
"It's ten after four, the limo's supposed to be at Hanna's at five. Do you have enough time?" Aria responded, wrapping Spencer's hair faster around the wand.
"Yeah, I think so. Didn't Hanna mention that Caleb was bringing a friend to dinner with us?" Spencer nervously asked. She was the only one going tonight who didn't have a date, but she didn't want to be set up with a stranger either.
"Oh, I totally forgot about that!" Aria exclaimed, nearly burning Spencer's forehead with her curling wand. Spencer groaned in reply. She was going to be set up with a stranger. Great.
"Oh, come on Spence. Caleb wouldn't set you up with someone totally weird. Even if he wanted to, Hanna wouldn't let him. It'll be fine, maybe he'll be really cute," Aria assured, ruffling Spencer's curls with her hands.
"You're dooooone," Aria sang, handing Spencer a mirror. Spencer had to admit that Aria did a good job. Her hair fell in bouncy ringlets around her shoulders, contrasting with her white skin. To finish the job, Spencer grabbed bobby pins from her desk, pulling her hair back and pinning two right above her left ear.
"Oh my gosh, you look amazing!" Aria squealed, "Whoever this 'friend' of Caleb's is, he's not going to be able to take his eyes off of you," she stated, winking at Spencer before grabbing her things.
"Goodbye, Aria," Spencer laughed, grabbing her dress from her closet as Aria exited her bedroom.
She had to admit that as much as she found Rosewood's dances silly, she always looked forward to buying a new dress for each of them. Tonight's special occasion was an Autism awareness fundraiser, which struck home, considering she spent three consecutive summers volunteering for a special needs program in Philadelphia.
Spencer laid her dress on her bed, admiring it for a few minutes before putting it on. The dress was strapless, and fell just above her knees. It was a shimmering red in color, with brown mesh layered underneath. A large flower design was at the left breast, shimmering in tones of dark red, gold, and brown. Rhinestones danced all the way down the side, wrapping around to the back of the dress. Spencer herself was shocked at how different she looked. Spencer didn't think of herself as self conscious, but she would never have described herself as stunning until that moment. She quickly pushed the gold and diamond earrings she had "borrowed" from Melissa for the night through her ears, feeling a sting of guilt as she did. She knew they were Melissa's most expensive earrings, and that Melissa would murder her if she found out, but tonight was a special occasion.
After putting on her makeup and perfecting the appearance of her red lipstick, Spencer slipped on her Christian Louboutin gold metallic heels and walked out of her room as if she were on a runway, calling Aria when she got to the bottom of the stairs to let her know she was on her way to Hanna's. Spencer was giddy with excitement, nearly skipping out to her car. She wasn't sure why tonight felt so special, but she knew it was going to be a fun night with her friends.
