Traces of Your Touch (An AU Fanfiction)

Chapter 17

"Aria Morgan!"

"Huh?" Aria snapped out of her daze as her name got called.

"Your attendance." Nikhil nudged Aria in the ribs.

"Here!" She replied gloomily.

Aria wasn't having the best birthday in the world. It started when her brother had called to wish her at midnight. She had found out that her brother was in the hospital at that very moment. He had injured himself while playing football and was to be bedridden for a week. Aria had been in a shock and had informed her parents immediately, although Ryan had asked her not to. Upon hearing the news, Beatrice and Arnold Morgan had become extremely upset and had decided to visit him without Aria.

Aria had tried to manipulate them into tagging her along but they had refused, saying that Aria needed to concentrate on school and take care of the house. It had been so long since Aria last saw Ryan that she had started weeping in desperation to see him. But it hadn't worked well with her parents as they had thought that Aria was throwing a tantrum to manipulate them.

If that wasn't worse, they had told Mrs. Rosalie, Aria's boring, nosy and gossipy neighbor, to babysit her. She had just become 17 for crying out loud! She didn't need a bloody babysitter! That wasn't the end of her misery though. Her friends had completely forgotten about her birthday because of the stupid camping trip; which, by the way, was also turning out to be a disaster.

When the entire 11th grade had summoned in front of the school gates, Mr. Hudson had informed them that there had been a change in plans. Apparently, there had been a miscommunication. The spot where they were to camp had already been booked by some other school. So instead, they were being taken to a camping spot near Bowman's Lake.

When Amy heard about the change in plans, she threw a fit in front of the whole school, insulting both Mr. Hudson and Aria. She said that poor people like Aria went to places like Bowman's lake and that Mr. Hudson did not possess any taste in places. Mr. Hudson being a very nervous and fidgety person had stood there shamefaced, without even trying to defend himself or tell Amy off. And the icing on the top of all the disaster was when Aria found Amy taking the seat next to Harry on the bus.

Aria snapped out of her thoughts when a small paper ball hit her head. She grabbed the ball and opened it. There was a small scribble in it saying, "Check your phone!"

Aria scowled at the paper and looked around to see who had thrown it. But everybody was busy talking or laughing with their friends. She turned to ask Nikhil if he had seen anyone throwing it, but found him fast asleep beside her. She opened her bag and took out her phone to find two text messages. One was from her mother asking how Aria was doing and another one was from Louis.

Aria opened it and it read, "Thinkin' about me, beautiful? ;)"

Aria blushed to the tip of her roots when she saw the endearment by which he had called her. Beautiful? Her? She looked up to find Louis watching her and when Aria gave him a smile in acknowledgement, he winked back at her.

Turning back to her phone, Aria typed, "Aaww. It's cute how you think you're so important."
Before Aria could look up to see his reaction, her phone vibrated indicating a new message from Louis. She opened it and read, "Wow! Someone's in a frosty mood. Don't break my heart here, babe."

Aria blushed even further reading the last line. Louis sure had a weird sense of humor. Plus, the sudden endearments were making Aria stir in her seat. She bit down on her lip and typed back, "Not your heart. Just your ego. ;)"

She looked up this time and saw Louis reading the text before looking up at Aria. He faked a pout showing hurt to which Aria just rolled her eyes. All of a sudden she noticed Louis getting up from his seat and heading her way. She looked around in panic, wondering what Mr. Hudson would say.

But fortunately, Mr. Hudson had dozed off to sleep. Louis reached her seat and gave her a small smile before shaking Nikhil awake.

"Hey, Nikhil. Do you think I could exchange seats with you? Just for a while? Zayn is asleep, so you won't be bothered while you sleep there." Louis finished, indicating his seat.

"Uh yeah. Okay." Nikhil nodded, before getting up.

"Thanks, mate." Louis slapped Nikhil's back sportingly and took the vacated seat next to Aria.

"Well, hello there!" Louis greeted Aria, as if he had just noticed her. Aria just smiled and looked at her feet. Soon, Louis engaged her in a conversation and Aria didn't even realize how the time flew by.

Louis was a great company, as he made her cheeks hurt and her lungs gasp for air from laughing so hard. Aria found herself in a much better mood by the end of the bus trip. She was looking forward to spending more time with Louis at the camp and she found herself smiling at that thought for some reason.
