They went on a date.

Aiden and Erin were at the beach with everyone or as Erin liked to call it, she was with a bunch of popular people with the exceptions of her lovely friends Sam and Hana.

It was the summer of sophomore year.

Erin didn't want to show her swimsuit to her boyfriend. Yes, boyfriend.

Aiden wasn't the little shorty she used to fight with, he was different. Even after them getting together, she was still insecure.

After Aiden grew, a lot of girls became interested in him, but she was thankful for his loud mouth that turned off girls.

"Erin, where's your swim suit?" He approached her half naked and she wanted to cry at this point, embarrassed she looked away.

"I don't like swimming."

Aiden frowned at that response, he wanted to see his girlfriend in a swim suit. It took him a few weeks to convince Erin to go. Well, he would just kiss her until she couldn't bear it anymore. Her embarrassment was what he found cute about her.

He turned to see his best friend Knight going for a swim with Emma. Aiden sighed, he wondered why Knight didn't have the balls to talk to the girl he really liked.

Knight use to pester Aiden into asking Erin out and now that he has, it became the opposite. Aiden has been nagging Knight to ask the girl in question out. He knew his buddy has the looks and personality to get any girl he wanted.

Besides Aiden couldn't get any girl he wanted, but even if he could get any girl, he would always choose Erin.

He approached closer to his girlfriend and sat beside her, "you're wearing a sweater...is a swim suit under it?"

She didn't respond. Erin didn't know why but she would always get increasing sweaty when Aiden was beside her. She thought she would be used to it by now, but his presence still made her feel antsy. That's why she complied to go to the beach, Aiden kissing her nonstop made her malfunction. He wouldn't stop until she would say yes. He would tickle her while kissing her, she couldn't bear it as much.

After being lost in thought, she noticed that Sam and Hana left, leaving them alone. She hadn't notice their disappearance. She gazed through the crowd and saw that Knight and Sam were casually talking.

Hm.

She also spot Hana alone playing with water alone.

Her thoughts were halted when Aiden held her hand, she twirled her head. Her beet root, flushed face must've been evident to him because he smiled.

"Man, even when I was a shorty your face would be red. When I gave you the necklace is when you were at your cutest, " He whistled, "I wish you were like that now."

She frowned, "hey you just suck at romantic tactics."

She was bluffing and he knew it.

"Okay, I'll be more romantic." Aiden let go of her hand and placed his lips on hers when she turned to face him.

She pushed away, "what happens if someone sees?"

He laughed, "when did we care about other people staring at us?"

He had a point. When Erin and Aiden were at each other's throats they didn't give a fuck who saw them arguing.

Aiden smashed his lips against Erin's again and this time Erin let him do it. He didn't let her breathe as he deepened the kiss.

Erin grabbed the collar of his shirt while he had his arms around her. Aiden gently pulled her down so that they were lying down. She was lying on top of him with their feet tangled and every time she would try to pull away, he would tighten his grasp around her waist and pull her closer to him.

She gave up.

Aiden slowly slid her zipper down, revealing her swimsuit.

She realized what he was doing and broke the kiss.

He stared at her swimsuit.

She immediately got up and zipped it back up.

"That was a dirty trick." She muttered.

Aiden paused and got up, "yeah, maybe it's better if you don't swim."

She furrowed her brows and he stared at her.

"Why the sudden change?" She asked.

He frowned, "you know exactly what I mean, that swimsuit...could've worn a one piece."

The blood shot up and she hugged herself, "I-I...wanted to look nice."

Man this was embarrassing.

Aiden paused, "I do want you to be comfortable in your own skin, so don't force yourself, okay?"

She nodded.

"But, if you wore that just with me, that'd be nice."

She covered her face, "you say the most embarrassing things sometimes?"

"What!?" He grunted, "I said such good lines too."

"This is why I'm your first girlfriend, the shit you say is too cringe worthy!"

"Hey, I'm your first boyfriend!"

"Who said you were my first!?"

Now that got him speechless. Erin flat out lied but she couldn't take it back now as she saw Aiden's fast darken.

"Okay, Ms. Erin. We're going to have a lot to talk about when we get home. I'm not going to walk you to your house, you're coming to my house."

"B-but my parents?"

"Don't worry, Erin. I'll make sure you won't have babies yet."

She choked on her spit, "what does that even mean!?"

He smiled as he held her hands, "I love you, Erin."

She was flustered by his fast pace personality, so she decided to change the subject.

"What should we do now?"

He pondered, "well Knight needs to grow balls right now, so I guess you want to build a sand castle?"

Erin paused and nodded, "a sand castle?"

"Yup!"

Aiden's dazzling smile was always Erin's weak spot, so she nodded meekly.

What she didn't know was that sand castle also involved a lot of kissing from Aiden.

Well, she wouldn't complain.
