"Thea, this isn't what you want," I looked up at him, our lips centimeters apart. "How the hell do you know what I want?" I whispered against his soft lips.
"Thea, things will change if we do this," H...

We're almost at Aaron's house after having snuck out the back way, where his car was parked behind the mansion. He warned that his parents might be home and it worried me a little considering what had just happened with mine.
As the front gates open and I was in awe of how modern and sophisticated his home was. I hadn't seen it from this view before and it was beautiful, especially at night when the dim moon light hits it perfectly.

(But at night of course lol)
As soon as the door opened, it was warm hugs and hot chocolate in seconds flat. "Hello sweetie, I'm Ella and this is mark, we're Aaron's parents. He texted us that you were staying the night tonight and we're happy to have you." Ella already knew my name so I didn't have to talk much, I wasn't exactly in the mood to after everything that happened today. Aaron told her I was sleeping in his room and he'd take another, so after grabbing my bags I followed him to the stairs.
I hadn't noticed before probably because I was too drunk but his house is more stunning on the inside, the dark tiles and stones, and symmetrical build. I was obsessed with it.

We finally got to his room and he pointed directly across the hall where he'd be sleeping, "if you need anything just come in okay?" Pushing back the thought of asking, I didn't want to be a burden and make him stay with me. But honestly, being sober with the thoughts of what my mom said to me today, might prove to be more difficult than I thought.
"Okay, I will." I said with a soft smile and retreated to his bed. I couldn't wait to fall asleep and let the memories of today sink into oblivion. I didn't have to wait long because his bed was so comfortable, it was like laying on a cloud.

I'm not sure why but I couldn't sleep tonight. Maybe it was the thought of how much Thea's going through or my body's not used to resting on a Friday night? Who am I kidding it's definitely the Thea issue. I've been laying here staring at my ceiling for 3 hours now and all I can think is I hope she okay. Logically I know she's less than 30 feet away, but for some reason it pains me to think about what's running through her head right now.
