Complicated

(14)~Aaron

*Aaron's POV*

       It's been a week since I dropped off Gracie at her friend's house and I haven't spoken to her ever since. After she brought up some guy named Trevon, I decided to opt out because at first I only kept talking to her so I could get a chance to sleep with her. Yeah I know but that was really low of me, so when blonde bitch- her name's Emma anyway, told Gracie that I don't date, I wanted to slam her against the wall but obviously that's just wrong. She did that with the last girl I was going out with for three months, I didn't want a relationship with the girl but Emma fucked it all up once she told her that I'm not gonna date her. The girl asked me if it's true and I said yes, there was no use of lying, it would just be useless because I know she deserved better and she could have been on my neck about it.

So when Gracie replied to Emma once she said that, I was really taken back that she didn't ask me anything or let it get to her. I know it's only been weeks we've been talking but I expected a little reaction especially after the kiss we shared in the locker room. Dean got along with her well throughout the night and the stunt she pulled at the end was fucking amazing.

The way she smiles and talks makes me want to see her everyday but at last she has someone else and I'm not ready to put down my guard to let any girl in, she might be better off with that Trevan guy.

I've been in the gym throughout this week after school to keep training and keep fit because it's almost basketball season and the coach said some recruiters are coming from this one of the private schools here in Miami, to pick one of our players. I used to be in a private school before switching to my present one because I hated the life there, the kids were all about money and no academic drive but they had good sports teams.

There's a big chance that I'll be picked from the junior class, well that's what the coach said and with how much I hate private schools, I heard they have a great basketball program.

"Aaron, I'm hungry, could we go get food" my little sister peeps into my room. This girl is my soft-spot, my mom has stated it a lot of times to stop letting her get everything she asks for, but I can't resist her. "No food at home?" I ask

"I mean there is but honestly I just want to see Caitlyn, so I asked that instead" she comes in and hops on the bed, "pleasee" I decided to keep ignoring her because it might get on her nerves a little. "Please" she repeats it like twenty times but my ears are now hurting, so I pick her up and carry her on my shoulder to the car.

"Where's Larry?" I ask about her twin, "don't know, don't care" she shrugs and gets into the car. Sometimes I forget that they are just thirteen, they grow so fast.

The place she wants to go to isn't too far from here so I'll just drop her off and hang around till she's ready. "Caitlyn has an older sister" she grins at me, "Lina, what should I do with that information?" I glance at her before placing my eyes back on the road, "I don't know maybe ask her out, she's really pretty" wow these kids.

"I think I'm fine with the women in my life already" which is her and my mom, my mother deserves all the love and the care my father couldn't give to her. The thought of him being called my father, drives me to the edge, thinking of everything he does makes me want to hunt him down and kill him myself sometimes.

I might take Lina on that offer, the older sister looks fine as hell. "Hey I'm Caitlyn's sister" she sends a little wave my way, I was lost staring at her that Lina had to shake me up to return her greeting. "Oh umm sorry, I'm Aaron, Lina's brother" I shake her hand and I swear there is a light appearance of a blush on her cheeks.

"I can stay with them if you like" we are at a store, named LoveShackFancy, I've heard Lina talk about it during dinner for days now. "Thank you, that will be great"- I turn to Lina- "call me when you're almost done okay"  she nods and leaves with her friend.

"If there's anything just let me know, okay" she's doing a whole scan of me right now, and it's pretty obvious, "sure, just know you owe me one" she smiles and works away too.

I get back into the car and call Louis, "do you talk regularly with Gracie?" I make sure not to give out any sign that I care. "Yeah I spoke with her yesterday but not on a regular basis, are you guys still doing whatever you're doing?" - "No, not anymore" I clench the steering wheel

I'm not really good at writing in a guy's POV, so Aaron's POV will only be when we have to see what he's feeling not just a usual day or stuff like that..
