The song above is Famous by Charli XCX. I do not own it, but it is posted above because I listened to it non-stop while writing this.
Pain, that's my first thought when I wake up. I sit up and observe my surroundings. I an lying on the couch inside the air ship. I bring my hand up to rub my eyes as I yawn before moving it down to my leg. I gasp as I feel a blood soaked bandage wrapped around my left leg. ding, dong goes the airship's mock alarm clock before its mechanical voice sputters, "One o'clock." I move to stand up, but fall as I try to walk. Aaron comes running in, "A little help..." I mumble. Aaron stands above me, laughing....
"HELP ME!" I screame, "My leg kinda hurts," I mumble.
"Fine," Aaron gasps as he chuckles.
He leans down and picks me up as I wrap my arms around his neck.
"What happened?" I ask.
"One of the Queens' guards shot you in the leg," he says, "It was my fault, I should protected you." Aaron says as his now black hair covers his eyes.
"Don't be like that! I can take care of myself."
"If only." A thousand emotions flicker in the water that is his eyes,(I forgot what color Aaron's eyes are so now they are blue) sadness, hope, fear, and affection.
"What does that mean?" I ask, but Aaron ignores me and starts to set me back on the couch.
"Wait!" I yell, as I grab onto his shirt, "Don't leave me alone."
"Celeste, I'm going back to my room to sleep." I can hear the exhaustion in his voice.
"Take me with you." Aaron gives me a weird look.
"Really Aaron? You have a bunkbed for crying out loud! I can sleep on the bottom and you can sleep on the top."
"I always pictured the first time I had a girl alone with me in my room I don't know...... ummm...... differently?"
I then said the most childish thing ever, "Ewww! Gross."
"Oh really, Celeste? Are you not a teenager?"
"I am a teenager."
"Then you've had a crush before?"
"Yes, I guess." where is he going with this.....
"Then I know that you have had a romantic thought about them. Maybe it didn't involve being in a room with them, but nonetheless you have created a fantasy with them in your mind."
"Well, maybe I'm above that."
"No you're not," he chuckles.
"Then prove it." I challenge.
He chuckles then sits down next to me on the couch. He snakes his arm around my waist and gently grasps my neck. (how someone can gently grasp your neck, I do not know. However, I'm trying to get some CelestexAaron action in this chapter because my friends have requested it.) Wait. Is he going to kiss me?! He leans his head down toward mine and I stop breathing.
"See," he whispers, "you're normal after all."
For a moment I think he won't kiss me anymore, but I'm absolutely wrong. He kisses me. And I kiss back. It's quick and deliberate, just like him.
"Why did you kiss me?" I ask.
"Because I could." He smirks.
A minute passes and Aaron never moves.
"I thought you were going to go back to your room," I state.
"I think I'll stay here tonight." He says.
"Ok, but how are going to fit?"
"Like this," Aaron says as he pulls me closer and lays down so we're face to face.
"This is really close," I mutter as I blush.
"Yeah. I like it. I can see you when you're not worried or scared. You're more beautiful when you aren't under so much pressure," He murmurs.
"Aaron, what if I fall for you?" There's that look again.
"I really don't know."
"Will you fall for me?" I ask.
"Maybe.... I already have," he answers. I blush again and Aaron pulls me closer.
"Celeste, if you fall for me it won't end well." Is the last thing I hear before I fall asleep.
