"thanks again for coming." i smile as i walk him to the front door.

after the whole group chat fiasco, i finally took care of some things that had been on my mind... and almost finished the last thing i wanted to do.

the timing was actually perfect, despite how bad the 'deleting the group chat' situation was, that led to blocking kayla and meg on literally everything. things were starting to calm down though.

"i'm glad we talked." "yeah, me too," he says, a beaming smile on his face. "we should hangout again. hopefully sooner than last time?"

why did it take me so long to reach out to him? i couldn't help but smile again. "i'd like that." he grins at my response.

"i'll text you?" he questions while walking out of the house. "looking forward to it," i laugh as i lean against the door, facing him.

"see you later, lexi." he waves, walking off my porch and goes to grab his skate board. although the second i close the door, i notice he forget his phone on the counter.

"shit." i grab it, rushing out of the house and hope that he didn't leave yet.

"aaron!" i yell after him. thankfully he hears me and turns around before he skates off. "you forgot your phone!"

"oh shit, thanks," aaron chuckles, jogging back, and i hand him the phone. our skin lightly brushing against each other as he takes it from my hand.

"would've been really bad if i left without this." aaron smirks as he clutches the phone in his hand while suddenly towering over me. my heart feels like it's about to burst out of my chest.

earlier, i don't know why, but i felt the need to talk to aaron; so i invited him over — just to talk and catch up, since we haven't hung out in a while.

it was actually on my list to start talking to new people. our group was always so small, and when i started to date vinnie that really let me branch out and hang out with others.

aaron had been someone who always reached out, but i never got a chance to answer him, dating vinnie and all.

everyone talked about how good of a friend he was, and he had always been nice to me, but this moment was different.

"did your ex ever tell you how pretty your eyes were?" he suddenly whispers, a grin on his. wait, did he just —

i can't tell if he was leaning in to kiss me or not... but i just stand there, waiting for anything to happen.

i close my eyes, bracing myself for it — though they immediately widen when i hear a ground shaking sound of a car door being slammed shut.

"now what the fuck is going on here?!"

vinnie. shit.

what in the actual hell is he doing here.
