Chapter 3: For Aphmau

As the morning sun rises, Aphmau is still awake after hearing a strange sound at night. She knew everyone was asleep at immediate sunrise, except for Aaron, who might be awake. At 6:00 a.m., Aphmau sprinted to the phone and dialed Aaron's phone number. Aaron answered wearily. "Aaron? Are you there?" Aphmau asked. Aaron yawned. "Uh-huh." Aphmau started explaining why she called so early. "Uh-huh." Aaron repeated. "I'll open the door for you." After about 5 minutes, Aphmau knocked on Aaron's door. Aaron walked to the door and opened it. "Aaron! Thank you thank you THANK YOU!"  Aphmau yelled. 

Aphmau stopped to look at Aaron in his pajamas, although there wasn't much. He slept without a shirt and wore a pair of basketball shorts. He had messy hair when he woke up. Aaron was staring at Aphmau, wondering what's taking her so long to come into the house. About 7 minutes later of gazing and staring, Aaron picked up Aphmau and dropped her on the couch. He made a bowl of cereal for her and sat down on the couch with her. He looked at Aphmau, who was still staring at him in his pajamas. Aaron smiled. "Are you looking at me?" Aphmau stopped staring. "N-No..." She looked at the T.V. "L-let's watch T.V.! Yeah, how about um, um, Good Luck Aaron? I-I MEAN GOOD LUCK CHARLIE! I-I-I MEAN, GAH!" Aphmau stopped because she was so frustrated with herself and what she said to Aaron.

Aaron kissed Aphmau's cheek and smiled. "Are you okay? You seem more nervous than usual." Aphmau ate a scoop of cereal. "Aaron, I'm just on edge about all of those noises I heard last night." She looked down at her cereal. Aaron held her with one arm and turned on the T.V. He threw the remote to Aphmau and walked upstairs to his bathroom. "A-Aaron, where are you going?" Aaron smiled. "To brush my teeth. I'm not leaving for war, so don't worry." He continued up the stairs. Aphmau calmed herself down. "There's nothing to worry about, just-" she heard the noise she heard earlier. She panicked and ran into Aaron's bathroom without knocking. "AARON! T-T-T-THERE'S A NOISE OUTSIDE A-A-AND IT'S THE S-SAME ONE I-I-I HEARD EARLIER!" Aphmau sobbed. Aaron was mindlessly brushing his teeth. His hair was so messy he couldn't see what he was doing.

"AARON!" Aphmau screamed. Aaron jumped and dropped his toothbrush. He turned and saw Aphmau crying. "What happened?" he asked. Aphmau started to stutter. "I-I heard the n-noise again." Aaron hugged Aphmau and kissed her. "It's a noise. How scary is it?" Aphmau pulled away. "HAVE YOU HEARD IT?!" Aaron scratched his head. "No..." Aaron leaned against the wall of his bathroom and Aphmau began to describe the noise. "It's like a cat dying in slow motion! I mean, like, a cat slowly meowing and dying at the same time!" Aaron rolled his eyes. He stepped up to Aphmau to kiss her to stop her from rambling on. Aphmau kissed him back, but she then pushed him away. "YOU THINK A KISS CAN MAKE ME NOT SCARED?" Aaron looked over to the side. "Yes..."

Aphmau's face turned red. "REALLY?! WELL I'M GOING TO BE HONEST WITH YOU THAT IT WORKED AND YOUR BREATH TASTES NICE SO COME HERE!" She pulled Aaron by the neck and kissed him. Aaron started to smile. "Is it the toothpaste?" he asked. Aphmau smiled and said, "Yes. But I'm still scared." Aaron twirled her around. "How about a different noise?" Aphmau wondered and nodded, knowing that she was safe with Aaron.

Aphmau was sitting on the couch and Aaron had out his guitar. He was standing in front of the T.V. and had one hand on the guitar. "Do I really have to sing?" Aaron asked. Aphmau nodded. Aaron sighed and stated, "I signed up for this." Aphmau clapped. And as Aaron played notes on his guitar, he started to sing, but Aphmau stopped him with a kiss. After she was done, she put one hand on his cheek, stared into his eyes, and said, "Honey, your voice sucks." She gave a small peck on his cheek and sat back down on the couch. Aaron stood there and stared at Aphmau and kissed her. She was still staring at him. Aaron then looked down and realized he was still in his pajamas and went upstairs to change into his regular clothing. He came back downstairs and saw Aphmau sleeping on the couch. He picked her up and set her in his bed, then left for her house as she slept. 

He knocked on the door and Katelyn answered rudely. "I just want to feed the puppies." Aaron said. Katelyn moved out of the way and let him inside. After 10 minutes, Aaron left again for his house. When he got back to his house, he saw that Aphmau was awake. "Aaron!" Aphmau yelled as she swung her arms around him. She was cooking lunch for the both of them. Aaron hugged her back and kissed her. They kissed for about 6 minutes straight until they heard a knock at the door. Aaron reached for the door and Lizzie was standing there at the door. Aphmau was still kissing Aaron when he opened the door. Aaron pushed Aphmau away for a second, but she kissed him again, still unaware that a confused Lizzie was standing at the porch step. "May I interrupt for a quick second?" Lizzie asked.

Aphmau finally heard Lizzie's voice and stopped. She blushed and gave a nervous laugh. "Hey Lizzie! How long have you been standing here?" Lizzie folded her arms and glared at Aphmau. "Long enough to see you glue yourself to Mr. Shirtless over here." Aaron and Aphmau blushed. Lizzie continued with her sentence. "Well, I came by because a few of my friends are moving in close by." Aphmau looked out the door to see a 'SOLD' sign on a two-story house. "That house over there?" Aphmau asked. "Yes. Maybe if you stopped kissing Mr. Shirtless you would've heard me say that. I honestly think he wanted out of it too." Aphmau looked off to the side, her face redder than ever. "He lets me kiss him however long I want," Aphmau stated. "because he loves me and I love him. Right?" Aaron was zoning out again, making Aphmau outraged.

She started to tear up. "Aaron? Right?" Aaron was staring at Aphmau, admiring how beautiful she is. Lizzie backed away from the door. "Is this a bad time? Did I start this?" Aphmau covered her face and started crying. Aaron finally noticed Aphmau and hugged her. "What's wrong? Did something happen?" Lizzie face-palmed.
