(ARIELLE'S POV)
The young man chuckled and took off his shades, revealing piercing eyes that sparkled with amusement. "Alright, there was a catch. How're you, Madam?"
I was stunned, my eyes widening in surprise. Dwayne? Of all people? Before I knew it, laughter bubbled up from my chest, and I burst into tears-streaked giggles.
He was the last person I expected to see, and I couldn't believe I sang alongside him without even recognizing him.
"You're so-" I started, still chuckling.
"A jerk?" He finished, grinning. "I know, guilty as charged. I'm sorry if I startled you. I didn't want to reveal my identity and startle you. I wanted to hear you sing, and I'm glad you did. You sing so well. Are you sure you've never had a music career? My cheeks turned warm at his flattery. I shook my head, still trying to process running into him again. Is this a coincidence, or some planned act?

"How come we didn't recognize you?" Ashley turned to me. "Did you know it was him?
I let my hand up. "I didn't."
Surprisingly, Ashley didn't seem weary of Dwayne like she used to be, in our previous encounters. She flashed him a smile. "It's nice to see you again. Thank you for singing along with her."
