Chapter 15

Chapter 15| Aurora
"Wh-What?"
"He's not dead Aurora. He's in the hospital right now but he's not dead!" Jonathan says.

"But, but I STABBED HIM I STABBED HIM!" I yell. "Well, one of the other girls went to see him right after you left, and called the ambulance, and it was right on time, anytime later he would've been done" he says

"But, but did the doctors question the hole from where I stabbed him?!" I ask

"Jackson is known everywhere from what he does, and how he's kept girls in his mansion, has taken them down to his basement where he has said that they will be free, and kills them, they've been needing to capture him, and well, you technically helped them."

My jaw drops "but.. But. Zander was in the basement.. Does that mean?.." I drift off "He was gonna get killed" Jonathan says.

I look down at my hands "You saved Zander, Aurora. You saved him. You saved me, You saved Sabrina You saved Philip, you saved so many people from him"

I smile and start to tear up a bit "I guess I did, didn't I"
"Thank you" Jonathan says and hugs me. "Thank you Jonathan, for, for being here for me now" I say

"I will be from now on. From now on, I will take care of you whenever you need it.. Oh, and um, can I tell you something" He says as his cheeks turn red

"Go ahead" I say with a smile, "Sabrina is my girlfriend" He says with a big fat smile on his face. I smile even more "Aww congratulations! Please take care of her, she's like my sister" I say

"I will, I really love her" he says. "I'm so happy for you two" I say. "Thank you, now, time for you to get going" he says "That, is true, goodbye Jonathan" I say

"Bye Aurora!" He says. I walk towards my house and walk in. "I'm home!" I yell. "I MISSED YOU!" Zander says as he runs up to me and hugs me tightly.

"Mmm, it smells soo gooood" I say. "I made you pasta, I know you probably ate at the mall, but, I know you love pasta and I really wanted to make you something It probably tastes like shit but I just want-" I cut him off by giving him a kiss.

"I know it will taste amazing, thank you" I say and smile. He smiles back as his cheeks turn a little red. "Come on, let's try your pasta" I say as I grab his hand and walk to the kitchen.

I grab a plate but then Zander takes it out of my hand "Sit." He says. "I can do it you already made it" I say. "I said, sit." He says as he picks me up and puts me on the chair.

"I wanna do it" he says. I smile at how cute he looks when he tries really hard to do something. "Here you go my beautiful girl" he says.

I grab a fork and twirl the pasta then eat it. My eyes widen at how fucking delicious this is "Oh dear lord this is so good" I say as I hug Zander.

"You-You really think so?" He asks "Yes yes yes" I say and kiss his cheek making him smile "You did a very good job" I say.

"Dooooo I get an award for making you food?" He asks. "Well of course!" I say as I eat more pasta. "For my award, caaaaannn we cuddle and watch movies till we pass out?" He asks nervously.

I give him a long ass kiss then squish his cheeks "Anything for this wonderful boy!" He says. He smiles and picks me up bridal style. "My pasta!" I yell and pick it up as we go to my room.

We put on Netflix while Zander changes into some basketball shorts, and of course, he's shirtless. AND LETS JUST SAY SINCE HE'S SHIRTLESS THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY I'LL BE ABLE TO WATCH THE MOVIE. I'm just saying.

I put on some fuzzy shorts and a crop top. I braid my hair to the side and walk to the kitchen for some soda's and popcorn. I quickly grab another plate of pasta and head to my dad's room.

"May I come in?" I ask "What do you need sweetheart?" Dad says. "I brought you some pasta that Zander made, it's really delicious, and I figured you haven't eaten yet so here you go" I say as I hand him the plate.

"Thank you" He says. I place a soda on his nightstand. "Goodnight dad" I say. "Goodnight" he says. I close his door and head up to my room.

I see Zander laying on my bed looking for a movie. I look at his body and his muscles and his arms and I literally just space out looking at him. I swear I could feel some drool falling out of my mouth, gross. I know.

"You having fun there?" Zander says as he starts laughing. My face turns a bright red causing me to run over to him and lay on top of him, my head on his chest. "Your heart is beating fast" Zander says.

"So is yours" I say as I snuggle up against him more. "That's cause you still manage to make me feel happy inside" he says as he looks down on me.

I look up at him and kiss his lips softly. He wraps his arms around me and kisses me back at the same pace i'm going. I back away slowly "You've changed Zander" I say.

"How have I changed?" He asks. "You used to be such a player, you've had so many girlfriends and, you've stuck with me for so long.. Why?" I say slowly.

"That's cause I realized falling in love with you was such a beautiful thing, I've never felt anything like this before, and you made me fall in love with you without even trying.. I love you."

I burry my head in the crook of his neck and I swear to god, I was the reddest thing on the planet. "I love you too"
