A Darker Love (UNDER REVISION)

Chapter 12

Chapter 12

I woke up under the fort Jessica, Scarlett, and I made the night before. I rolled to my side to see a sleeping Cindi. I got up slowly, trying not to wake anyone up and headed downstairs. I walked into the kitchen to see Aiden pouring himself a bowl of Cocoa Puffs. I then remembered the kiss on the cheek last night and my heart fluttered.

"Hey" I said, grabbing the box of Cocoa puffs and a bowl. Unlike most people in my family, I hated milk ever since I was a kid, so I eat my cereal dry. "Hey" he said, sitting down at the island in the middle of the kitchen. Our kitchen was big enough to have this big piece of wood in the middle. It had a sink and a cutting area and also a small place where people can sit and or drink.

"So how did you sleep last night?" I asked. What a way to start an awkward situation, I thought. "I slept well, really well after well uh... last night" he replied, smiling shyly. I smiled back at him and started picking at my Cocoa Puffs. "I really like you, ya know" He said. "Well yeah who doesn't?" I asked sarcastically.

He chuckled, "But really you are ridiculously pretty" I blushed at the comment. Me? Pretty? As if! I replied, "You're just saying that!"

"No, I'm not. I liked you since the first day I moved here."

"Really?"

"Yes really!" He laughed.

By now we were like super close. I couldn't take it anymore so I pulled him and crushed my lips against his. He was shocked at first but he then wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me on to his lap.

I then pulled away quickly. "I'm sorry!" I blurted out. He chuckled "Don't be" and pulled me back to him and kissed me again. A shock of electricity shot through me. I have never felt this way in my entire life. We pulled away and I rested my head on his chest.

We ended up talking about a bunch of random things and finished our Cocoa puffs. (Well some of them.) We ended up having a food battle and I won by jumping on his back and stealing all his cereal. "Hey! No fair!" He said, smiling. I jumped off his back and we picked up all the cereal.

By then it was twelve o'clock and we were still the only ones awake. "Hey do you wanna piss everyone off?" Aiden asked. "Sure" I said, smiling mischievously.

"Here take my iPod and plug it up to your stereo"

"Okay"

We walked quietly into my room. I plugged up my iPod as Aiden turned the speakers way up high. "Play 'Wake up' by korn" I did what I was told and pressed the song. I liked that song; it was the first one by Korn I have ever heard.

Wake the fuck up,

Wake the fuck up

Wake the fuck up,

Wake the fuck up

Wake the fuck up,

Wake the fuck up

Wake the fuck up,

Wake the fuck up!! 

Jessica jumped up and screamed while Scarlett and Cindi sat up glaring daggers at us. "WHAT THE FUCK DUDE!?" Xavier screamed, running in the room with the other guys. "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!" I laughed, clutching my stomach. "Shut up!" Jonny snapped. Aiden and I looked at each other silently until he busted out laughing, falling to the floor. "You...Should've seen...your...face!" Aiden said between laughs. By now I couldn’t help it too, I was rolling on the floor laughing. Soon Scarlett and Jessica joined in, easing the tension a bit. After our laughing ceased, everyone just stood there awkwardly.
