Just Friends - Chapter 8
It's been 4 months since we lost the baby and I'm doing alright. Aiden's gone away for a month and I'm missing him like crazy, but he hasn't called yet and he promised he would.
I walked downstairs and mom was sitting at the table.
"Hey mom!"
"Hey honey!" She replied. "Have you spoke to Aiden?"
I shook my head, sadly. She got up and hugged me.
"Don't worry, he'll call!" I went back up up to my bedroom and picked my phone up. 0 missed calls. 0 texts. I decided to shower. I went into the shower and stripped out of my clothes. I turned on the shower and got in. I massaged the apple shampoo inti my hair, then washed my body. I then got out and wrapped my body in my red fluffy towel. I put my hair in a bun, put my dressing gown on and got into my bed. I picked up my phone and dialled Aiden.
"Hello?" Came his voice.
"Oh my god, Aiden, are you ok?" I said, quickly.
"Yeh I'm fine." He said, bluntly.
"I've been so worried, you've been away for a week and a half and you haven't called!"
"Do I have to ring you every day?" He said, angrily.
Tears started to come to my eyes.
"N-no but I haven't spoke to you since you left, please just tell me why you didn't call?"
"No I don't need to tell you fucking everything!" Then he hung up. The tears thy were in my eyes fell down. He'd hung up on me. I turned my phone off so he couldn't call or text me, not that he wanted to. I turned the light off and went to sleep.
I woke up the next morning and went downstairs, I put some bread in the toaster. I spread sone nutella on it and poured a glass of orange juice, then went into the living room and turned on 'The Jeremy Kyle Show'. What kept going round in my head was why Aiden hung up on me. Tears were in my eyes again but I wiped them away before they fell.
When I finished my breakfast, I went upstairs to get dressed. I put on my skinny jeans, White t shirt with 'GEEK' on and a black leather jacket. I did my make up naturally (foundation, blush, mascara, black eyeshadow and clear lipgloss), then put my hair in a ponytail. I grabbed my phone and turned it on. No new messages. I turned it off and put my phone in my bag and left the house. I got on the bus to town, I needed some bits. I went into Primark. I threw some bobbles into the basket and some grips. I got the pair of laced up shoes I wanted an then I saw this really nice top with sparkly bits on. I picked that up and threw it in the basket and then some black socks.
After I finished at Primark, I went to Starbucks and got a hot chocolate with whipped cream and marshmallows. Then I walked to the bus station. The bus came 10 minutes later and I got home in 5 minutes.
2 weeks later and Aiden still had n't called or texted me since he hung up. He was coming back tomorrow. I was so tired but it was only half 7 but I was in bed anyway. I fell asleep about 8 and had a dreamless sleep!
It was 2 days after Aiden was supposed to come back. Then it came to me that I forgot to turn my phone on. I turned it on. 7 missed calls: Aiden.
9 texts: Aiden
'why the fuck aren't you answering your phone?'
'answer the phone!'
I read the texts and then rang him back.
"hello?" He said.
"hey." I replied.
"why the hell haven't you been answering your phone?!?!" He snapped.
"I turned it off after YOU hung up on me!" I snapped back.
''where are you?" He questioned.
"where do you I am, Mars?!?" I said sarcastically.
"hey theres no need to get arsy!" He snapped.
"theres a lot of reasons why I should be arsy: 1- you hung up on me without no bloody reason, 2- you haven't called or texted me for nearly a month and 3- your being really angry and I don't know why!" I said angrily.
"you know what!" Before I could reply he hung up. Well how VERY charming.
Ding Dong.
I went downstairs and opened the door, Aiden.
Aiden stood there with an angry look on his face.
"what?!" I snapped. He replied by smashing his lips on mine. The kiss was angry but I liked it. But then it hit me. I pulled away and said,
"No you can't just kiss me, Aiden, thinking that it can all go away, cos it really hurt me the way you hung up on me, twice actually and then didn't even ring or text me. I didn't want to know what you were doing cos I trust you, all I wanted to know was why you didn't call me for a week and a half!" I stopped because the tears were falling down my face! "I love you so much and then when I speak to you, your just absolutely horrible and all I wanted to do was speak to my boyfriend who I'd missed like fucking mad! Uggghh, do you know I can't even look at you right now!" I went to slam the door but Aidens foot stopped it.
"please don't slam the door, if you let me in then I'll tell you why!" He replied.
"what happens if I don't let you in, you won't tell me ever and you'll walk away?!?" He nodded.
"Yeh pretty much!" he replied.
"oh thanks!" i said sarcastically. "your such a dick, you know that!" I shouted.
" you know what, I can't take this, you call me a dick when I just said that I'd tell you everything! We're over!"
"no, please baby! I'm so sorry I over reacted, please don't leave me, I love you so much it hurts. The only reason why I got so mad was because I missed you so fucking much and I just wanted speak to you and I wasn't. Please don't leave me!" I said but whispered the last bit. As I looked up he had tears in his eyes. I walked closer up to him and wiped the tears away.
"please!" I whispered. He grabbed my arm and pulled me into his arms. I melted into his arms.
"I'm sorry, baby, I was so rude to you and I apologise! I love you so badly it hurts and I will never leave you!" he said before kissing me passionately!
