A little huff escaped my lips unbidden and a deep, throaty chuckle erupted from above me.

"What? Having issues down there, shorty?" Sweet Pea teased, earning himself an eye-roll and elbow in the ribs from yours truly.

It's not as if it was my fault I was under 5 foot. Or that virtually every other student in this stupid school was taller than me. However, Pea had always found it amusing. As well as how much it irritated me. I only grumbled in response from where I stood beside him, the skin of my bare arm brushing his smooth but worn leather-jacket-clad one as I crossed my arms over my chest.

He chuckled again before suddenly, I felt his hands slip under my armpits and I was being lifted up, up, up into the air before being plopped down on a broad set of shoulders.

My eyes widened in shock as the world around me came into sharp focus, like I was looking at everything through a clear magnifying glass. I could actually see what was going on!

A sharp gasp ripped free from my throat as my head swiveled around, taking in the large auditorium filled with fellow Serpents and students alike.

"What?" Sweet Pea asked and I could hear tinge of amusement in his voice.

I struggled to find the words, my mouth opening and closing like a gaping fish before finally, the words just tumbled out.

"It's-it's like being on the Eiffel Tower!" I shouted to be heard over the din of people, awe lacing my words.

I didn't know what I had expected his reaction to be but when a burst of loud, deep laughter roared from below me, I couldn't help but grin. Honestly, that nickname kind of stuck after that. Mine, though, was better, he insisted. Let's just say it wasn't easy for a tough Serpent girl in Riverdale to be called 'Paris'.
