Dangerously Close

New Begining

Hazel and Aaron sat opposite to Katy and Harkin.
Aaron had explained that his ex was arguing with him after he caught her with Matthew in bed. She admitted that the baby was Matthew's and she only told Aaron it was his because he was making more money than Matthew and her. Aaron explained how he left as soon as he could taking all his things with him. Katy just kept giving them a confused smile.
"But you told MY BEST FRIEND that you didn't love her!" Katy made sure he heard her say best friend.
Aaron nodded and looked at Hazel with a sad look on his face.
"I know it was stupid of me. I didn't want to lead her on especially because I wanted to make a go at my previous relationship so I could be a good father." Aaron paused and held Hazel's hand tightly with his own, he took a deep breath in and carried on.
"I really do love Hazel, I know that for sure because she's all I could think about after I left. I want to make a go of this again with no more hidden feelings and secrets."
Hazel gave Aaron a hug which lead to them making out. Harkin cleared his throat hoping they would stop making out, it didn't work. Katy giggled still a bit tipsy and headed out of the room to leave them alone. Harkin wasn't far behind her closing the door as he left the living area.
"Katy! Will we finish drinking in here?" Hazel shouted as Harkin closed the door.
Katy smiled and turned around to see Harkin opening the door again.
"Yeah of course... I'll get the vodka." Katy ran down the hallway to the study. As she bent down to pick the vodka up off the floor, she felt his presence in the room.
She turned around and watched Harkin open a press in the room and pull out a large bottle of vodka. Her brows raised as she wondered what he was doing.
"I drank yours and Hazel's drink so it's only fair to replace it, if there's the three of you drinking aswell one bottle won't last long." He said handing her the bottle. She gave a small grin and picked up the glasses without responding. Don't do it Kate, DON'T! He did kiss me and I don't want him to get the wrong idea by inviting him to join us. But I don't want him to think I'm using him or his house. AAGGGHHHH!
"Why don't you join us? It is your house." She said trying to fight away her negative thoughts. He walked towards the door and held it open for her.
"Are you sure you want me in there being no fun?" He asked with a smirk on his face. Katy nudge him in the stomach and smiled back.
"Don't be silly, you can join us as long as you drink." She walked out the room and down the hallway to the living area.
Hazel was dancing around the living area when they walked in and Aaron was laughing at her. Katy smiled, it made her happy seeing her best friend finally happy with someone.
"What are you doing back?" Hazel asked looking at Harkin who was closing the door.
"Hazel, be nice!" Katy hissed with a smile to her. Hazel laughed, she took the vodka from Katy and started to pour it into the glasses.

After a few hours everyone was quite intoxicated, Hazel and Aaron couldn't keep their hands off each other which made Katy feel even more awkward with her mixed feelings for Harkin.
"Ok! I guess I'm gonna hit the hay!" Harkin said loudly which stopped Hazel and Aaron from kissing again.
"Yeah I think that's a great idea." Hazel said smiling at Aaron.
Harkin said goodnight and left, Katy decided it was a good idea considering Hazel and Aaron kept kissing. She said her good nights to them both and wobbled down the hallway.

I wonder if I just walked in his room and threw myself at him would he do anything to stop me?
NO! Stop thinking like this Kate! You're drunk and so is he, it's the worst idea you've ever had!
She entered her room fighting her ideas to go to Harkin. Katy closed her door, sliding down the door with her back against it she rested her head in her hands. Why did he kiss me and then not say or try anything afterwards? It wasn't long before she was interrupted from a knocking on her door. She jumped up looked in the mirror quickly and opened the door.
It was him, her heart was racing and she couldn't help but smile.
"Katy, ummm, I don't know how to say this." He scratched his head and looked back down at her.
Come on just spit it out! You want to be with me?
"You're friend and Aaron are fornicating in my living area!" He blurted out quite fast then sighed.
Katy's mouth dropped, her eyes widened and she placed her hand over her mouth.
"Look I was just wondering if you could knock on the door and send them to Hazel's room to do that sort of stuff." Katy couldn't help herself but giggle.
