Hypothetically Thinking

Note 7- Terrors

India

Aiden I know we had sex but that doesn't mean-- no no

I stood in the mirror and prepared myself to tell Aiden that just because we had sex does not mean I'm feeling him . Well atleast I think i'm not into him.

Aiden we can't--

I then heard the door open and close .I heard his keys click together as he tossed them on a table.  After a deep breath, and calming myself, I paced out the bathroom and stood directly infront of him as he stared at the almond colored carpet.

"Aiden, I just wanna say last night was a big mista--"

I stopped talking and perceived him shedding tears . When he dropped on the floor , I felt the need to know what his problem was.

"A what's wrong?Aiden?" I got on my knees and sat in between his legs . I tried to remove his hands from his face but he wouldn't allow me.

"What's wrong? Tell me, please."

"My aunt died." He said in a low tone.

"Look at me." I removed his hands and wiped his tears "It's okay . I'll help you get through this . I promise."

He shook his head "It's not okay. It's not okay to me."

I looked into his eyes and wiped his tears once more. I hated seeing him cry . He made me teary eyes as well.

"I'm sorry for your lost baby . I'll be here for you." I kissed his forehead .

He leaned back on the couch and just stared at the ceiling.

"You know how to roll a blunt?" He asked without looking at me.

"I haven't smoked since I was sixteen but I still know how to do it."

"Here . Roll me one" He gave me a dime bag of weed and a pack of rellos.

"Okay" I smiled.

.. .. ..

I watched as he hit the blunt real hard and blew out the smoke . I admired his tattoos, but not that much . I'm 100% sure that I can do better, but I don't know how to do tattoos.

"Do you feel better?" I tilted my head .

  "No....but what were you saying earlier?" He asks as he coughed .

"Um-- that-- that. Nothing. I just want you to feel better."

He nodded his head and hit the blunt again, then a knock came on the door.

"That's probably room service." I grunted as I stood off the floor .

I walked towards the door and unlocked.

"Look through the peep wh--"

Before Aiden could finish his sentence I opened the door and Ali stood in front of me.

"You thought I wouldn't find you . That's cute." He chuckled .

"Ali please go." I whined .

He came in and his eyes widened when he saw Aiden.

"Wow, are you cheating on me with this kid?" He scoffed .

Aiden just sat there and stared ahead not caring what was happening.

"Go get your stuff . You're coming home . We have a wedding to plan."

"I'm not goin anywhere wi--"
