Eva's Pov

I could feel my heart racing even faster, my pulse thudding in my ears. Aaron's proximity was overwhelming, and his unwavering gaze was making me even more nervous. I felt trapped against the wall, with no escape.

His one hand was casually in his pocket, while the other hand was caging me in, pinning me against the wall. He looked down at me with a smirk on his face, enjoying the effect he was having on me.

"Tell me," he whispered softly, his voice low and commanding. I swallowed nervously, my mind racing as I tried to think of what he could possibly want me to tell him.

I tried to play innocent, acting like I didn't understand what he was asking for. "What do you mean?" I said, blinking my eyelashes innocently. "What are you talking about?"

Aaron chuckled, the sound making me shiver involuntarily. He could see right through my act, his eyes glinting with amusement. "Don't play coy with me," he said, his voice low and smooth.

I could feel my heartbeat quickening again as he leaned in even closer, his face mere inches from mine. "What were you saying there?" he asked, his eyes boring into mine. "When you were welcoming me?"

I could feel a lump forming in my throat as Aaron continued to stare at me, his gaze intense and unwavering. I swallowed hard, trying to keep my voice steady. "I-I was just welcoming you," I said, my voice betraying the nervous flutter in my chest.

He chuckled again, my stumbling attempt at nonchalance not escaping his notice. "Just like that, huh?" he said, his tone playful yet with an underlying hint of something else.

He paused for a moment, his eyes scanning my face as if he was trying to read my thoughts. Then he spoke again, his voice suddenly dropping to a low murmur. "So you were just straightforwardly saying that you'll tell me later."

I swallowed again, my mind racing as I tried to think of how to respond. "T-tell you what?" I stuttered, feeling more and more flustered under his intense gaze.

He said, " I am not gonna eat uh, don't be nervous ! His unexpected words took me by surprise, and a nervous laugh escaped my lips. "I-I'm not nervous," I lied, feeling my hands shaking slightly.

"Yeah and I am the president of Nyc he said sarcastically". I rolled my eyes at his response, a hint of a smile tugging at the corners of my mouth. "Right, and I'm the queen of England," I retorted, my voice dripping with sarcasm.

Aaron suddenly asked me for dinner out of the blue, his question catching me off guard. I stared at him, unsure of how to respond. "Dinner?" I repeated, as if making sure I had heard him right.

He nodded, his gaze still fixed on me, waiting for my response. I felt my heart skip a beat at the unexpected invitation, and I hesitantly agreed. "S-sure," I said, trying to sound nonchalant. "Dinner sounds nice.".

He nodded, his gaze still fixed on me, waiting for my response. I felt my heart skip a beat at the unexpected invitation, and I hesitantly agreed. "S-sure," I said, trying to sound nonchalant. "Dinner sounds nice.".

He smiled, pleased with my answer. "Perfect," he said, his voice smug. I couldn't help but feel a flutter in my stomach at his satisfied expression. What had I just gotten myself into?

I couldn't help but frown slightly, a mix of excitement and nervousness coursing through me. Aaron's sudden invitation had caught me off guard, and I couldn't help but wonder what his intentions were.

"I need to change," I said, suddenly becoming aware of how disheveled I must look after the ceremony. My hair was probably a mess, and my clothes were wrinkled from being stuck against the wall.
