"Aiden?!"

"Kia?! You woke up so early?"

I sat next to Aiden, "Yup, I wasn't getting sleep so I thought I'd come out for a jog. What's up with you?"

"Nothing, even I got up early", he shrugged.

I gave him an 'I don't take that excuse' look and he understood that he was busted.

I met Aiden when we were in the second year of college, he was assigned as my lab partner, we became friends on the first day itself due to our similar personalities  and later I introduced him to Noah, Tam and Isa. He instantly became a part of our group and Noah's best friend.

"Okay fine, I got that. Actually from the past few days I have been doing something occupying my mind giving me almost sleepless nights ."

"What is it Aidi? You can tell me", I demanded.

"Kia, I think that I am in love."

A smile crept on my face as I asked him, "Who is the lucky girl?"

"I hope it's a girl", I joked.

"Of course Kia, I am completely into girls", he winked.

We laughed and I said, "Come on now, tell me fast."

"Isabella", he shyly confessed.

I gave him a blank look as he tensed, "Say something Kia."

I jumped in happiness and gave him a huge hug, "I am so happy for you Aidi but what took you so long to confess, silly?!"

Aiden rubbed the back of his neck and said, "I don't know, I was just too coward to accept it."

"One second, you knew it? Was I so obvious?"

"You aren't a coward Aidi first of all, and yes you were that obvious, it's okay but now tell me what the problem is if you know that you are in love with Isa?" I giggled at his misery.

"We haven't confessed anything and so I don't know whether she loves me back or not."

"Aiden are you being real?! Of course she loves you."

He gave me a weak smile and said, "You think so?"

I placed my arm on his shoulder and told him, "I know so. Aidi you must confess to her as soon as you can, she would be waiting for it too, trust me on that."

I tried to assure him.

He nodded and said, "Okay I will but I want to make this special for her."

"Why don't you take her for a date and then tell her?"

"How would I plan date here in Monte Carlo? I barely know anything around here."

"Point", I said and started to think about it.

Suddenly, I thought of someone who could help us with this, "Leave that upon me."

"Okay, but how would you do it genius? You are a tourist too."

"I have an idea genius, don't worry."

I know just the perfect person who can help me.

"If you say so but please keep me up with all the details."

"Of course Aiden", I assured him.

He gave me a wide smile and thanked me.

Aiden has finally realised his love for Isabella, she would be delighted to know as that girl, I know is longing for this. Isa is a very simple and sweet person. She isn't among the ones who want things fancy, a simple flower from Aiden would also work for her.
