marty throws a football in araya’s direction while she’s practicing with the cheer squad . he may have been aiming at her - - payback for the mermaid costume .
LANDS A DOUBLE HANDSPRING , WELL PRACTICED SMILE ON RUBY LIPS ; ❝ ary ! watch out . ❞ her friend calls from behind her , giving her just enough time to duck before the ball flies above her .
❝ god , @cryptjock , you utter freak ! ❞ araya shrieks , the girls of the squad coming to check on her - mirrored looks of digust on heavily painted features . and shit , she can't remembr the last time they had a civil conversation . it had been before jamie's ' disappearance ' that's for sure . at the gathering ( she can't even call it a memorial - but , that's what it was . ' araya , he's gone . he's not coming back . ' ) , she'd been less than civil when he'd thrown some crackpot theory on jamie's disappearance . and mermaids ? god it's like he was trying to hurt them . ❝ I can't believe they let him back on the team . if it were up to me he'd be expelled . ❞
