Not Your Average Nerd

Leaving

Aidens breath on my neck makes me aware of how close we are. I couldn't turn down Aidens begging eyes when he asked me to spend the night with him. It was a Friday night so Andrew would've already guessed I would be out late. He wouldn't expect me to be at Aidens.

Plus I knew this was the last night I would ever be seeing him again. I knew it would hurt both of us... But I wanted one last night with him.

"Why do you like me?" I breath nervously. He tightens his arm around my waist, keeping my back pressed to his chest. "Because your different... You didn't swoon over me," that's what he thought. "You were something completely different. Your beautiful. Smart. Tough. You don't care what anyone thinks.... You saw me as my own person... Aaron I know its hard for you to trust anyone. But I want to open up to you. About my family. All of my past. My feelings. All of it. I don't expect you to tell me about all of that."

I turn my head to him and he lightly smiles, bringing his hand hand up and lightly skimming my cheek with his knuckles. "You trust me that much?" I could barley get the words out of my mouth. He nods. "Yes. I'm insane over you. And ill do whatever it takes for you to trust me."

I shield my eyes away from him. "Your hopeless." I mutter. He laughs and slips his hand under my shirt, making shocks shoot through my body when his palm and fingers touched my bare stomach.

"Ask me anything you want to know, shortcake... I'll answer truthfully." I smile up at him. Last night... Last questions.

I turn my whole body towards him and lay my head on his shoulder, pressing my forehead to his neck. I placed my hand on his chest. I felt him tense under me and I smiled bigger. I felt his pulse under my fingers and on my forehead.

"Tell Me about your family. Everything." He grabs my hand that was on his chest and intertwined our fingers, bringing our palms together. It sent my pulse skyrocketing.

"My mom died when I was fifteen. I took it hard. I was a moma's boy," I smiled at imagining a small black haired boy with emerald eyes running into the arms of his loving mother. "Me, my dad, my mom, and both my brothers were that perfect family, you know? And all it took was one stupid drunk driver to fuck everything up."

"Your mom was killed in a drunk driver accident?" He nods. "Yea. And if I knew who, I'd kill the bastard. Every since then I've always been in trouble, irresponsible, asshole, hard to deal with guy. Her death changed me completely. Which is also another reason my dad never trust me with my own brothers."

"Oh... I'm sorry. I know that's probably not what you want to hear but... I don't know what else to say." He brings our hands up and kisses each other my fingers, lingering there a few seconds.

"Yea... But you changed me, Aaron. You made me realise there was more to life than being a grouch all the time." I smiled and placed a small kiss on his collarbone. "You've changed me to, Aiden. More than you think."

"How?"

I roll my eyes.

"I hated boys. I mean, yea i slept with them all the time but I never actually liked them. I usually just tricked them into believing I loved them and wouldn't hurt them... Then used them..." I leaned away and looked up at him. "Now... I realised not all guys are bad... I met you."

Yea, there's still bad guys like my dad and Kendall but... Still.

His smile lights up his face. "Your making it so hard for me not to kiss you." I laugh and put my head back in the crook of his neck, smiling. "Shut up Aiden."
