Stuck in the Past

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Warning: this chapter was not edited or proofread :c and it's short AND boring :/. Ughh. I can't wait until I get to write the good parts which I have pictured in my head already!!! 

"Aiden!" I whined. "Where are we going?"

"Shh. Just keep walking." His deep voice began. "In fact, we're almost there."

I nodded in reply and became more anxious by the second. Trees swayed around in the dark, earthly forest as Aiden and I made our way deep into this black hole. It was our six-month anniversary and right after our romantic dinner, Aiden ushered us to approach this 'special place'. Incoherent thoughts. would pop in my head, then and now but I quickly shoved them away.

"Are we there yet?" I spoke softly, yet stressing out 'there', while gazing upon Aiden's striking eyes.

Aiden released an enthusiastic chuckle that echoed through the woods, "Yes, we're here."

I quickly rotated my head to where Aiden seemed to be gawking. Without even thinking I breathed out a "wow."

The special place Aiden had brought me to was simply magical, everything you could ever dream of. Words couldn't even be able to describe the setting. Flowers were planted around the perimeter of the scenery and in the center was a wooden swing, with a perfect seating of two.

"Yeah." Aiden smiled while grasping onto my cold hands and dragging me towards the center. "Do you like it?"

I stared at him with my jaw wide opened, due to his idiotic question, "Do I like it? I love it!"

"Glad you like it, but you better close your mouth before some flies fly in there."

I quickly snapped my mouth shut and sat on the wooden swing, hand in hand with Aiden. I stared at the full moon with awe and leaned my head onto his shoulder.

"This should be our special place from now on." Aiden whispered into my ear, sending tingles through my fragile body.

I nodded, "Yeah. How'd you find this location in the first place?

"It's a secret, Carebear." he answered.

"Don't call me that!"

"Why not?" Aiden feigned a frown, creating crease lines near his lips.

"Honestly, would you like to be compared to a cartoon bear?" I replied.

"I would mind-"

"Exactly!"

"You didn't let me finish." He said looking me directly in the eye as his warm, brown eyes glistened in the moonlight. "I would mind," Aiden paused for a moment as if expecting me to interject again, before continuing, "-if someone else nicknamed me Carebear or an even more embarrassing name. But, babe you can call me anything you want."

"Only me?" I asked, nervous about his reply.

Aiden let out a hearty chuckle before kissing me on the forehead and whispering, "Yes. Only you, always and forever.

I woke up with a bucket full of sweat streaming down my face and bloodshot eyes as the memories from yesterday flooded my mind, yet again. Aiden's emotionless face, his cold eyes and his stiff stance. Be strong, I told myself.

Twisting my head to the right, I spotted my batman alarm clock that stated it was only 6:00 a.m. I let out a drowsy sigh and slowly made my way off my bed. School started at 8:00, which meant I still had an hour and a half to get ready for school.

With a drained body, I made my way to the shower, conveniently located in my room. I stripped myself of all clothing and stepped into the cold bathtub. The water alerted my senses and awoken me from my weary state. Grabbing my Herbal Essences "Hello Hydration" shampoo, I lathered some onto my messy brown hair and watched as bubbles began to form.

***

I wrapped a towel around my body, trapping the warmth, and rummaged through my messy drawer, in hopes of finding a nice outfit for the day. After a few more minutes of exploring through my jungle of a drawer, I pulled out a comfortable grey 'New York' sweater and slightly ripped, light washed skinny jeans. As I topped the outfit off with a taupe colored scarf and slipped into my furry, brown boots, I checked the time, 7:20. Crap.

I raced my way down the stairs to be greeted by my mom and dad, giving each other a goodbye kiss. Although their relationship had aged throughout the years, this did nothing but bring them even closer together. Watching the affectionate spark between them reminded me of Aiden and I, the joyful times, the love filled moments. The time when I actually thought I would spend eternity with him. I let out an inward scoff before being greeted by my mother, whom may I say, was quite the morning person for while I was not.

"Good morning, sweetie." my mom said with a smile present on her face.

"Morning mom, dad. I'm running late to school, so I better get going." I replied, giving each of my parents a kiss on the cheek before running to grab the doorknob.

"But what about breakfast? You can't go a day without-" my dad started before being curtly cut off by the slight slam of the old, revolting wooden door.

I sigh a breath of weariness and began my walk to school, avoiding puddles on the concrete ground. I guess it rained last night after I fell into a deep slumber.

I looked up at the cloudy sky and cursed to myself for having cheap parents whom refused to buy me my own car. I’ll admit we weren’t the richest of the rich but we weren’t the poorest of the poor either, if that makes any sense. 

I heaved a sigh and continued walking along the sidewalk when suddenly I spotted a black car driving speedily, which was too familiar to mistaken it as someone else. The car even had the signature one line scratch across the passenger door. 

"Aiden." I breathed lowly.

Author's Note:

Cara's outfit to the side >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Okay, let me just say, I am not exactly proud of this chapter LOL.

I ended it LIKE HALFWAY where it was SUPPOSED to end. *sighs at my laziness and unproductiveness* 

I've been quite busy with things, ever since my SHSAT classes kicked in and I became mildly obsessed with Audition ( a computer game ). So there's my explanation :P

ON AN IMPORTANT NOTE, does anyone know how to make a cover? I just think I need a new one, idk why guise.

But anyway, here's a funny thing I found:

Girl: Omf, I met the president yesterday!!!

Boy: Excuse me, but what language are you speaking?

Girl: English, why?

Boy: Cause it sounds like bullsh*t.

- Your Puff ;D
