Forbidden Love.

Chapter 6 - Confrontations.

Recap:

i did it without even thinking i reached over and kissed his cheek. I'm positive i just turned the brightest shade of red. He chuckled.

"You're blushing doll"

"I shouldn't have done that"

"I don't mind , now how about we go get you something to eat before coming  back to school to meet Elena"

"That sounds good"

And that's when it hit me and when i realized , i liked this boy , maybe it's because he was the first person to show interest in me in a long time , but it was how he looked at me , he had this tough hardcore exterior for everyone to see and he let his guard down a little for me , i knew we had a long way to go but it was progress for him.

"Shortcake , i just might start getting creeped out at your staring" he smirked. 

He was back , i rolled my eyes.

"Shut up you twit"

"As you wish my lady"

This boy was going to be trouble.

Chapter 6 - Confrontations

 Iv'e been thinking about how nice Elliot was to me the other day but it was like i barely even saw him. I knew he was in the kitchen i could just walk in and say hi or something right.

hi sounds too dull. 

just say it 

i was so busy arguing with myself that my legs decided to move me into the kitchen 

"hey" i said with that goofy smile on my face and all i got back was a nod in acknowledgement , did he like just nod at me , he didn't even look up to acknowledge me or anything. i walked out of the kitchen thinking long and hard about what i should say or do. An hour later and i was still thinking about it.

I marched down to his room and just froze at the door. what am i gonna say ? what the hell am i doing ? i should just go back to my room.

"Is there  reason why you're hovering outside my door shortcake" 

"shit"  i mumbled under my breath , how the hell did he know without even opening the door. ok it was now or never.

"can we talk Elliot?"

"Sure"  why did he have to open the door shirtless i had trouble keeping my thoughts together enough already.

"wh ..why , why are you being like this to me , i opened up to you and i told you everything and i don't do that and i don't know you and i trusted you and it just keeps bugging me that maybe you hate me because i kissed you or you think I'm pathetic and"

"ARIA! God damn it shortcake get a breath in"

"Sorry i ramble when I'm nervous"

"Sit , shortcake"

OK now i was nervous.

"I cant be what you want me to be shortcake , you have enough problems in your life and you don't need me to mess things up even worse its better if we just keep it that way" wait what how did we even reach here

"what , you cant decide that for me, i don't even know what this is what we are , was this your plan to get me to open up to you cry like a little bitch then forget about me who the hell does that" i was mad now

"It's not that ! god , I'm not good for you don't you understand , i cannot stop thinking about you , you have been on my mind from the moment i laid eyes on you , the way you get nervous when I'm around and how cute you are when you blush"

"stop" i was on the verge of tears now , no one every talked about me like that

"how you don't even know how beautiful you are , all I'm going to do is bring a world of hurt"

"no you wont just let me in , give me a chance to show you that i can trust you Elliot and for you to prove that you'll be good to me"

Everything was happening so fast , i haven't known this boy for more than a couple of weeks but it felt like an eternity , he built up walls higher than mine but it was like i could see right through them , i knew what he wanted , someone to care about him just like i did , that's why i knew we were perfect for each other. Which is probably why i just walked up to him and pressed my lips against his , i don't know what came over me to be the one to insinuate my first kiss but it felt right. Boy did it feel right , our lips moved perfectly in sync , fit together like they were made for each other not to mention the heat and sparks that i felt when we touched. i pulled away first breathing heavily 

"i'm not the person who would leave you , i need someone as much as you do even though you wont admit it Elliot" closing the door behind me i let out the breath i had been keeping in for so long , i don't know what had came over me in there it was so unlike me but it felt right.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                     ***

I avoided Elliot for the next couple of days , he didn't say a word and neither did i , it had almost been a whole week since i kissed him and i guess he needed space and time since i just right out attacked him, were these the hormones i heard so much about in guidance class because i couldn't think straight in this boys presence. I cant even think straight when I'm not around him.

Aria , get back to your homework.

I was wondering how long it would be before my subconscious showed up and talked some sense into me. 

I needed a break , i've been doing this assignment for almost 2 hours now , and i was starting to get hungry.

"Aria"

"Hi ms.fintry "

I was still so shy and coy about  talking to Elena's mother , it was so hard to face this woman knowing that my mother had broken up her marriage and now i was living with her.

"come here dear , how have you been" she held out her hands welcoming me into her warm embrace 

"i've been hanging in there i guess"

"that's good darling , just keep being strong , I'm going to run some errands but i'll be back to start dinner"

"ok bye" i gave her a weak smile , i was so glad she didn't resent me , but seeing her like this made me miss my mother , the one before all this. I was taking a trip way down memory lane when i felt someones presence behind me

"So we gonna talk about that kiss or what shortcake" 

oh no.
