All about you

Chapter 3

When I arrived home Cara was on her way out to the animal shelter , and mom and dad were still at work. Besides weekends they were at work all day , so we rarely saw them during the week.
" - Hey Em , how was school?" Cara said while grabbing her bag.
" - Pretty awsome actually." I knew she was in a hurry and I didn't want to be the one who got her late. "We'll talk later now go or you'll be late."
" - You're right , bye!" She blowed me a kiss and rushed out the door.
I went to my room ate some chips and did my homework. They were really easy so I finished in no time. I took my phone and texted Sofi.
"What r u doin?"
"Fine , coming back from cheer practice. U?"
"Same. Just finished my homework."
"I saw you and Aaron today ;)" Oh-ow. I hope he doesn't have a girlfriend.
"Does he have a girlfriend that I should worry about?" Please say no , pleasee.
"No. Well , I was wondering if he asked you to be his." Pfff yeah , maybe he kissed me and yeah , he might or might not have told me about his father , but I wasn't getting my hopes up. At least trying to.
"He didn't say anything like that to me. He might not even like me."
"Are you kidding me? He kissed you! Do you like him?"
"Yes , I do , but does it matter?"
"Whatever. Gotta go ; talk to you later. Bye"
"Bye."
I went to the kitchen , got a bowl of blueberries and watched TV sitting in the extremely comfy living room couch. Oh! These bluberries are so good.

After two long hours of watching the movie 'This is the end' I went to my room , took a shower and went to bed , letting the sweet unconsciousness of sleep take me.
The next day at school I haven't seen Aaron until gym class. He was on the football field , and when he saw me he waved. He was so cute , his hair surrounding his beautiful face. I thought of him to be a confident guy , full of himself and self-assured , but he was actually very vulnerable and had emotional issues. I like confident guys , but he makes me wonder if I really liked the sensible guys that pretended to be confident. I watched him play from the sidelines with Sofi and the other cheerleaders until our teacher blowed his whistle announcing the end of the class. He came towards me and Sofi , the other cheerleaders already gone with the rest of the boys.
" - Hello Em , Sofi , how are you?" He asked looking at us with a charming smile. He was all sweathy and his t-shirt was molded , showing his abs. God I wish Sofi wasn't here!
" - Hy , Aaron." I said smiling back at him , trying to make my eyes to stop staring. "How was the game?" He looked at me and I thought I saw a twinkle in his eyes.
" - Eh , not great , just the usual amount of fun." He said frowning because of the sun and using a sarcastic tone.
" - Glad to hear that." Said Sofi twisting her hair around her finger and leaning twoards him. "What do you say about hanging out today after school?" And she looked at him smiling. He looked at her with a suspicious eyes and smiled.
" - As long as Emma is coming with us , sure." He said and looked at me.
" - Of course she's coming , don't be silly!" She said and chuckled but when I looked into her eyes I thought I saw a spark of annoyance.
" - Awsome then. I gotta go , see you later!" He yelled running twoards the school and waved at us.

The next hours were passing so slow , that they felt like years. Finally the bell rang anouncing the end of school and Sofi and I walked to the parking lot waiting for Aaron to show up.
" - Hy girls." He said popping up from behind my car. "Where are we going?" He looked at me but I couldn't say anything because Sofi cut me.
" - I know just the right place." She had a grin of a smile on her face and she pointed at me. "But we're going to need your car." I was expecting that we'd go someplace else , it wasn't like we were going to stay at school , but Sofi brought us to the outskirts of London , to a forest. I couldn't say how big it was , but it was big enough for us to enter and lose sight of the car. He sat between the trees on a big rock that Sofi called the cbeerleaders's spot. We sat on it having between us and the rock only our clothes and a blanket I had in the trunk of my car.
" - So , Aaron , how's your dad doing in Alaska?" Wow , so he never told anyone but me the truth. Sofi asked him ,rather with a flirty attitude. What was she doing ? she knew I liked him. He looked at me and smiled sadly then he turned his head twoards her.
" - He's fine. You know , working and stuff." He didn't seem to notice Sofi l flirting with him or he ignored her deliberatelly.
" - Emma , why don't you tell us what is your dad working on now?" He was clearely trying to get the attention off his dad.
" - He's in Romania right now , I think in Bucharest , working on a new Fifa game." I said looking shyly at Aaron who was smiling reassuringly at me.
" - I love Fifa! Tell your dad i say thanks to the ones who created it." He said mocking the voice of a old british man. We started laughing , Sofi joining us kinda late.
The rest of the evening was nice , we talked , laughed and really got to know each other. Aaron was playing in the football team so that he'd get a sports schoolarship for the Teesside University in Middlesbrough and that he had a brother who was already studying there psichology , Cole. Sofi wanted to become an actress , but she didn't know which university she'd like to attend and she was an only child. Her mom was a model and her dad was a lawyer.
It was starting to get dark , so we folded the blanket and went back to the car. Sofi said she forgot her phone by the rock so she went after it. I put the blanket in the trunk and when I close it Aaron was hugging me , putting his arms around me from behind and whispered into my ear.
" - I hope that next time when we hang out we'll be just the two of us." And then he let go of me and got in the backseat of the car. I catched my breath , because since he started talking I holding it. I was feeling like I was flying , my heart racing in my chest , thinking about the little shocks of electricity that his touch left on my skin and of his breath on my neck as he whispered in my ear.
