Skylar leaned back onto one of the wooden picnic tables, soaking up the sun. It was so much warmer in Auradon than it was at the compound. All six of them were enjoying it and it had only been two weeks since they arrived. Bex had gotten really close to Nick. Tori had been advoiding any boys that weren't their brothers as they all wanted to ask her out and didn't know how to take 'no' for an answer. Hunter and Kol had become the notorious players of the school and Tyler, like Tori, was avoiding everyone. Skylar couldn't help but think about her time with a certain prince. CJ was so nice and charming. He kept winning her things in the arcade. Most of them were pink. He had even come to visit her while she in her ballet lesson. Ballet was fun. It made sense to Skylar. According to the teacher, she was much more advanced than some of the other students and had been boasted up to the next class within a week. Skylar let out a content sign, if this life was a dream, she never wanted it to end. "What are you thinking about?" Tori asked, surprising Skylar and making her yelp.
"Don't do that!" Skylar hissed. "It's creepy." Skylar crossed her arms and pouted. Tori sat on the table next to her and put her arm around her shoulder, squeezing lightly.
"But that's exactly why I do it." Tori replied. "So, once again, what are you thinking about? Or should I ask who you're thinking about." Skylar blushed a deep pink. "So we are thinking about mister Prince Charming."
"I can't help it." Skylar said to her sister. "He's just so…"
"Charming?" Tori prompted.
"I was going to say thoughtful and sweet, but charming works to." They both started laughing. "What's going to happen?" Skylar asked. "When we do what She wants."
"I have no idea." Tori replied. There was a moment of silence before Tori brought up her latest art piece.
They sat there for an hour talking about everything under the sun. During this time, Tyler and Kol had come to join them. Hunter was wooing girls and Bex was in a study group with Nick. "We should be getting inside." Tyler commented. The sun was setting and they had been outside since lesson's ended. None of them had eaten yet. "And get something to eat." Tori replied just as her stomach started to growl. Skylar slid off the table and gathered up her stuff and swung her back pack onto her shoulder. As soon as they got to the canteen and a boy about their age, if not a little older, started signing to Tori. Tori growled. "I have a hearing impairment, dumb-ass." Tori snapped at him, making him freeze. "I'm not deaf. Why is whenever someone sees hearing aids they automatically think I'm deaf." Tori was walking towards Bex at this point.
"What's wrong with her?" Bex asked as Skylar put her stuff on her seat.
"Some guy tried to flirt with her in sign language again." Skylar explained. "so she's annoyed." Bex hummed slightly. It was hard for Tori. Whenever someone saw the hearing aids they assumed she was deaf and either a) started to use sign language or b) spoke really loudly. There had been a few occasions lately when it had really annoyed Tori and her hair started smoking, setting off the fire alarms. It was happening so often now that people were beginning to assume that there was a glitch in the software. "I'm going to go get some food." Skylar said, "Try not to set anything on fire, Tori."
"No promises." Tori muttered, slumping further into her seat. As Skylar lined up to get food, CJ silently stood behind her. "Hey, Sky." He said suddenly, making Skylar jump. Her food would have gone all over the floor if CJ hadn't of caught it. "Sorry."
"It's fine." Sky replied, taking her tray off of him. "Did you need something? Or do you just want to talk?"
"Actually I was wondering if I could ask you something." CJ said, slowly rubbing his hand across the back of his neck.
"Sure. Shoot." Sky told him, picking up a small bowl of fruit salad and placing it on her tray.
"Are you free tomorrow?" CJ asked. Skylar froze. It sounded like he was asking her out on a date. "Because I was wondering if you'd like to go somewhere, just the two of us."
"Like on a date?" Skylar asked slowly, glancing at him. He looked nervous.
"Yeah." He replied. "So are you free?"
"I'm Free." Skylar told her. "and I'd love to go somewhere with you."
"I'll meet you at your room at noon then." CJ said.
"Perfect." Skylar said. Skylar couldn't believe it. She just stood and watched as CJ walked back to his table with his sister. Skylar felt like she was in shock. Kol noticed from where they were sitting. he was the one to get up and genetley pull Skylar to the table. She sat there for a good ten minutes before Tori hit her back into reality and she explained what was going on.
