ONCE UPON A TIME

Chapter 6

Aria's POV:

               The sun lit up my room , the birds were singing and the air was fresh thanks to my air purifier. I had a feeling it was going to be an amazing day. I made myself a cup of coffee and took a selfie of me talking a sip. I put the caption "Life feels like a dream" with a star eyed emoji. I finally know what those lovesick girls in class are always fawning about. I got dressed and checked Xander's  schedule, He went grocery shopping on Saturdays but doesn't he have a butler , I guess he wants to enjoy a little of the things the middle class folk go through. 

            I looked in the mirror to see if i was over dressed and quickly did my hair in a messy bun , crumpled my shirt a bit , made lips a less bit pink and added the final touch of classes then making it slanted. You can't look too perfect r they'll suspect something. I got my toot bag , i'm an environmentalist, and hopped into my car. I drove to the grocery store.

*Time skip*

I have been shopping for an hour and got everything i need and i hve yet to run into him in this huge place. I decided to get some fruit and try another day but when i was reaching for the peach ice-cream, its made of fruit is it not but back to my point another hand reached for it too and it was Xander. 

"I guess we like the same flavor ice-cream too " He said smiling with his perfect mouth as his perfect green eyes sparkled looking at me . 

They were like emeralds , the most beautiful color of jade , the color of a lush green tree and there I go sounding cringe.

"I guess so" I smiled back.

He looked over into my cart and furrowed his eyebrows.

"You eat a lot of processed food for a girl this slim" He commented

"So your saying if you eat process food your fat and that being fat is a problem" I said .

"No , i'm not saying anything like that , I'm just saying you looked like you didn't cook and might eat at a lot of restaurants"

"So pretty girls can't cook"

"No , of course all girls can cook"

"So if your girl you should be able to cook"

"No , your misunderstanding and i say stupid stuff when i'm nervous so i'll just stop talking to avoid this"

"I'm just kidding i know your not that type of person Xander"

"I know what type of person you both are a menace to society , stop blocking the ice-cream some people actually want to bring it home before you idiots melt it before you melt it all by leaving the refrigerator open"A old man said sitting in one of those trolley wheel chair things waiting on us to move.

"We are deeply sorry" We eat grabbed a tub of ice-cream and quickly moved away.

When we were in a next aisle  Xander burst into laughter and i soon joined. We both went to the cashier giggling.

"That's the first time I've been scolded by the elderly" He said laughing.

"I get scolded by my grandparents every weekend so i can help you get into more trouble if you want to. "I said. 

He helped me put my groceries in my car.

"Then can i have your number so you can help me plan my next scheme.

"Anytime"I typed in my number in his phone and he did the same.

I read what he save him self as Xander with a heart and a laughing emoji.

"Aria with a cat emoji , i'm guessing you like cats?" He asked.

"I'm a fan off all animals but my mom says i'm like a cat, she calls me Koneko which is little cat in Japanese." I stated. 

"Cute or should i say Kawaii" 

"You speak Japanese"

"The girl i like is Japanese s I've been studying in case she curses me in Japanese one day"

"Ahh, smart"

"Well , can't have brawns and no brains now"

We ended parting since the ice-cream would melt and I regretted buying it in the first place but at least i got his number. I drove home with a smile on my face and not even the angry lady blaring her horn at me could ruin my mood.
