We drove for a long time passing the towns square and entering into an unknown place. Aiden successfully maintained the suspense of our surprise getaway by diverting the topic whenever I try to ask him about our destination. I tried to know about our whereabouts by looking outside the shutter, but for my disappointment, the road was dark and poorly lit, I couldn't find a board indicating where we were.
"Aiden please tell me where are we going?" I gave in and asked him.
"Surprise!" Is all he answered and chuckled to himself.
I pouted and huffed at his childish behaviour, although I knew I was the one behaving like that. I caught him smiling at me.
"Eyes on the road" I muttered, displaying a huge smile. He quickly looked at the road, we drove a little more.
"Almost there" he announced and I sighed, he kept repeating this for a while now.
The car came to a halt. We got down but I couldn't decipher the place, the darkness clouded my vision. Aiden grabbed my arms, my heart skipped a beat but this time it wasn't the butterfly effects. It was panic taking over my senses. I wondered what we were doing in an isolated, most importantly dark and at night. My sense screamed danger in the top of its lungs.
"Why are we here?" I asked him and retracted from his touch.
My mind travelled to all the wrong places, screaming from rape to murder and all things evil like sacrifice and omens. I took a few steps backwards and quickly sat in the car, trying to take my phone.
"Seriously dude?" I heard Aiden ask and laugh uncontrollably, he fell on the ground and laughed even more.
"Come on girly, let me show this to you" he controlled his laughter, although, a few times laughter erupted beyond his control.
I shook my head and stayed still in the seat unmovingly. That douchebag looked at my panicked state and laughed some more.
"I'm not going to murder you, although... I guess its a suitable place to dispose of a body" he said and thought seriously.
My heart jumped out of it rib or that was what I felt. I took out my phone hastily and dialled the first person that was in my recent dial list. It was Cole and that idiot didn't answer it.
"Elen, this is the place I and my mom visit when I was a kid" he started and gestured behind him.
I immediately understood how annoyingly stupid I was. I couldn't reply to his statement, I didn't know what I was supposed to say to him but I knew that he missed his mom more than he shows to others. I got down from the car, he looked at me, pain visible in his eyes. I looped my fingers in his, securing his hands and his affection. Aiden smiled at my action and held my hands tightly.
