Not So Perfect

XIV

Aiden's POV

Shit. I shouldn't have lashed out on her like that.

She was still stressed from last night and I basically kicked her out.

I sighed and took my car keys as I made my way out.

She had left not long ago so she might not have gone too far. I immediately started my car and went out.

After driving for a few minutes, I saw her sitting by the road. She was crouched down beside her suitcase and laid her head on it.

As I moved a bit closer, I could see her face.

Shit. She is crying.

In fact. She was sobbing. And I felt this deep dagger of guilt in my chest.

I shouldn't have spoken to her that way. But she drives me insane.

She could've simply answered my question and none of this would've happened.

I hit the steering wheel in frustration as I lay my head against the window.

I saw her getting up so I sat up straight.

She wiped her tears off and she took her phone out. And then she kept it back.

She stopped a cab passing by and got in it. And I followed it, I don't know why.

Because I'm still feeling guilty.

I followed the cab until it stopped in front of Ash's place.

So she's going here. And what is she planning to do. Complain about me to Aria? I rolled my eyes at my childish thoughts.

I parked the car and got out after she went in.

Nora's POV

I pressed the bell and waited until someone opened it.

I had no where else to go to. I didn't have a choice. A maid opened the door and smiled at me.

"Hi, I'm here to meet Aria. I'm her friend." I told her so she nodded, telling me to come in.

I left the suitcase out as I went in.

"Who's at the door, Lina?" I heard Aria ask as she descended down the stairs with Mr. Ashton behind her.

"Oh Nora, you here so early in the morning. Is everything okay?" She asked, as she made her way towards me.

"I'm sorry I came here unannounced-"

"What are you doing here?" I was cut off by Aiden, who just came in.

I immediately turned my head away from him, not wanting to face him.

"Aiden, hey." Aria greeted him and I could feel him just staring at me.

"I asked you Nora, what're you doing here, or wait you don't know how to answer questions." He said, I turned towards him with a glare.

"Well someone kicked me out, don't they remember?" I sassed at him.

"What's going on here?" I heard Ashton ask.

I turned towards them. "I'm sorry I think I should leave."

"And there she goes running away again, like she always does." Aiden said, making my blood boil.

"Stop it Aiden. Just stop." I yelled in frustration as angry tears rolled down my eyes.

"Every single time, you just speak down to me, calling me names and walk away like you said nothing. I'm a human too Aiden. It hurts." I told him, wiping my tears but they continued flowing down.
