Pretty Brown Eyes

Chapter 31

I was wrapped in Aaron's arms like usual, except this time I was naked, and so was he. It's been at least an hour since we had sex for the first time in our lives, and neither of us had said a word. It wasn't awkward, though. It felt right. Neither of us were good at talking or expressing our feelings. That's why our relationship didn't work all the time, because we had bad communication. I was about to change that right now.

"Aaron?" I said.

"Yes, baby?" he said.

Butterflies.

I smiled, "You just called me baby and I got butterflies again."

I could tell he smiled, "You still love me."

"Always have," I said.

"But what'd you need?"

"We're going to have to talk about it sooner or later," I said.

"How about we talk to Taylor and Madi about it? All together?" he asked.

"That's fine," I said.

I sat up, wrapped the blanket around me, and looked at him.

"Really?" he laughed.

"Get dressed," I winked before slipping on one of his shirts and a pair of Nike shorts.

Aaron threw on a sweatshirt and pajama bottoms. He walked in front of me, grabbing my hands from behind him. He stopped.

"Jump on. I'll carry you," he said.

I listened and jumped on his back. He grabbed underneath my legs and I laid my head on his back, hanging my arms loosely around his neck. We walked downstairs, seeing Madi and Taylor on the couch watching a movie. At the sight of us, Madi and Taylor both smiled.

"I take it your not breaking up," Madi smiled.

"And I take it by the clothes you're wearing it won't be for a while," Taylor smirked.

Aaron and I both blushed as he sat me down on the couch. He sat down next to me, putting his arm around my back. Madi's eyes grew once she collected what Taylor had just said.

"Wait," she said, "did you guys have sex?"

Aaron and I looked at each other, then laughed.

"They did," Madi sat back.

I nodded my head, "But we haven't even talked about it yet. Aaron suggested we talk about it with you guys."

"Why us?" Taylor asked.

"You're like our older siblings. It's easier to talk to you guys about things we don't want to talk about ourselves," Aaron said.

"Okay, well," Madi said, "did you use protection?"

"Of course," Aaron answered.

"Were you both into it?" she asked.

"Yes," we both answered.

"Was it fun?" Taylor asked.

Madi hit him and we laughed.

"Yeah, it was pretty fun," I said.

"Worth the wait," Aaron said, and then I hit him.

"Is there anything else you need to talk about?" Madi was still smiling.

"Tons of things we need to talk about," I said looking at him.

"But on our own," he grabbed my hand.

"You guys will pull through," Taylor said, "we did."

With that, we went upstairs. Aaron had to leave in a few days, so we needed to spend all the time we had with each other being happy.

Walking in my now messy bedroom, we both sat on the bed.

"What time is it?" I asked.

He checked his phone, "Just now two o'clock."

"It's still kinda early," I said.

"Do you wanna go somewhere?"

"I mean, I figured we could go talk or just hang out."

"We could go to the beach," he suggested, "I don't really go there often."

"I wouldn't expect someone that lives in Louisiana to go to the beach a lot," I chuckled.

"Yeah," he smiled, "so are we gonna go?"

"Sure," I said. "I'll go ask Taylor and Madi if they wanna go."

"Sounds good," he said.

I smiled, closing the door behind me.
