"Yeah, could I also get two of the brownie cakes as well? Okay. Thank you"
Aiden was finishing up his dinner order for Aliyah while pouring himself a glass of pinot noir. Once the call ended he sat down at the kitchen bar thinking and smiling at the fact that he had one of the most beautiful girls at Texas a&m completely wrapped around his finger. Aiden is no stranger to getting what he wants though being the son of a doctor and nurse practitioner, his parents made it clear from day one that he would always get whatever he wanted no matter the cost. He felt slightly bad about making Aliyah cancel her plans with friends almost 95% of the time, but honestly why does she need friends when she has me he thought. Am I not a great time? Am I just some third string to her? He took another sip of his wine and shook his head at those pitiful thoughts he was having. "definitely next week" he said to himself out loud, promising that he wouldn't interfere with her plans for sure. He truly loved Aliyah and would do any and everything for her and she knows that he thought. Thinking about the terrible basketball game he had earlier all he wanted to do was lay up with her and have her make him feel better than he felt.
"Starting without me?" Aliyah said making him jump from his thoughts. He laughed, "I tried to wait, it was calling my name though." She laughed and sat beside him pouring herself a glass.
He looked at her and could tell she was thinking a million things. "What's on your mind Aliyah?" she turned to look at him and shrugged her shoulders, "I just, i don't know...just thinking about how much i love you...but i hate that i'm not where i should be." Raising an eyebrow and trying to control his emotions, "what do you mean? I think you're exactly where you should be" She shook her head and sighed, "nooo Aiden i'm definitely not. I should be pursuing my dreams and instead i'm here...with you....not pursuing my dreams"
he laughed,"I am your dreams Aliyah, and the sooner you get that through your head the better. We are only 21 living in this beautiful condo that i'm paying for by the way,you drive a Mercedes Benz jeep that I paid for by the way again,look at you..the way you dress, your hair is always done, that expensive ass makeup...I think it's safe to say I am your dreams sweetheart"
he turned his head and continued drinking his wine.
She stood up abruptly from the bar throwing her glass to the floor.
"Well guess what Aiden i'm definitely not you're not gonna sit here like you OWN me so how about i pack up my shit and leave and you find another girl to play your property" she said while walking to the master bedroom. He jumped up from his seat and chased after her, "baby wait, i'm sorry, i didn't, i didn't mean it like that...I just....look i had about 6 glasses before you even walked in, i'm drunk i have no idea what i'm saying" she sarcastically laughed. "right. We all know drunks are the most honest" she said while packing her suitcase. He hugged her from behind, "i'm sorry, i know i have issues. but i just hate when you throw the fact that you came here for me in my face on a daily basis. especially when I just missed the winning shot from the game tonight.I would NEVER disrespect you the way that i just did in there, but you just caught me off guard. don't leave Aliyah...stay" She hesitated before turning around and placing her arms around his neck. "fine. under one condition" he smiled, "anything?" "No more asking me to cancel my girl nights, we don't have to be around each other 24/7" he nodded, "fine. just kiss me" She smiled and kissed him.

The next day Aliyah awoke to the sound of The weekend playing through out the condo and the smell of breakfast cooking. Grabbing her shorts she walked down the stairs and into the kitchen where Aiden was leaning against the stove drink a glass of OJ and smiling while preparing an omelet. "since when do you cook Mr. Waters" she asked while placing a kiss to his lips. "Since I fucked up last night...and called my mom for directions" they both laughed in unison."You didn't have to do this" she said while going to sit at the table. While plating the food he responded, "Yes i did,everything i said was...wayyyy out of line." he placed a plate in front of her and grabbed a gift box out of his pocket and sat it beside her plate. She blushed, "what is this Aiden?" He shrugged his shoulders, "open it and see" She picked up the box, closed her eyes and opened it peeking one eye open her smile faded, she tilted her head to the side in confusion, "uhm,what?"
