My best friend and Aaron.

Chapter 22

"Maddi! Wake up." Aaron's voice woke me up gently.

"What? Please leave me alone I'm still sleeping!" I moaned.

"I think everyone will be awake in a minute, won't they be suspicious if we came down together or if they found out we slept in the same room?"

"So why do you care?" I frown.

"I don't I just thought you might want to hide something." He throws himself back on the bed and stares at the ceiling.

I place myself on top of him and kiss him.

"This isn't something I want to hide." I shake my head.

We walk downstairs to find everyone spreaded around in living room watching TV.

"Morning peeps!" I steal everyone's attention and they all excitedly rise except from Jake who frowns at the sight of me and Aaron together.

"There you are! Our savour!" Dimmie calls out.

I frown and shake my head at Dimmie showing that I don't understand.

"We've been waiting for you all morning to cook because you're the only person in here that can cook well and won't burn the kitchen down." Jose pointed out.

I turned my head to face Aaron and let out a gentle fed up laugh.

"Will you help me?"

Aaron nodded and we walked to the kitchen while everyone else went outside.

"So chef, what are we making?" Aaron asked.

"Umm.. Pancakes!" I looked through the fridge and the cupboards and found the perfect ingredients for pancakes which me and Poppy used to make every weekend.

I tried to make the pancakes but I was always distracted by Aaron messing around and going off task.

"Aaron don't!" I shout as he picks up an egg and I instantly know what he's going to do.

"Aaron please stop!"

Before I do anything else he smashes the cold egg right on top of my head and the substance starts dripping off me.

He laughs so hard that he doesn't notice I pick up the flour and flick two handfuls on his hair and face.

He freezes in a serious expression and stares right into me. We start getting different stuff from the fridge and smudging and throwing it on each other. Finally I grab a load of ketchup and cover his whole hair and draw him a moustache.

"I win!" I smile.

We stare into each other and after seconds we are kissing again. His lips are warm and the ketchup has dripped onto them. I put my arms around him and hope the moment won't end but after 3 short seconds he pulls away.

"Only because I let you!" He smiles and I frown.

"What did I just see??"

Both our heads turn to see Dimmie standing 3 metres away from us with folded arms.

"What are you doing in here? Are you spying on us?" I snapped still in Aaron's arms.

"Are you two together?"

"Yes but please don't tell anyone!" I unstrapped myself from Aaron and put my hand over Dimmie's lips.

He slapped my hand and questioned me.

When he asked me why he shouldn't tell I shrugged, but I didn't know. Truly! I had nothing to hide about me and Aaron.

"Actually I don't care! Go tell them! Do whatever! Yeah me and Aaron are dating!"
