I Am Strong (Urban)

Old Flames

CHAPTER 14

Alicia P.O.V.

As soon as my first period class ended I hurried to the hallway in search of Aaron. I saw Heaven and Javier walking out of a class talking. "Have you guys seen Aaron?" I asked approaching them. "No not yet, but I have to go to the bathroom" Heaven said smiling as she walked to the bathroom.

"What's going on between them two?" Javier asked when Heaven vanished into the crowded halls. "Who? Aaron and Heaven?" I asked already knowing the answer. "Who else would I be talking about?" Javier said in a duh tone. "Nothing is going on that I know about" I said truthfully with my eyebrows frowned.

I noticed how happy Heaven was but I only assumed that was because Heaven, Aaron, and I have known each other since we were little. Heaven is like the sister I never had and Aaron was the irritating brother who always messed with us while we played dolls. Now that I think about it is it possible for them to have something going on? Nah I must be tripping. If something was going on or ever went on between Heaven and Aaron one of them would've told me.

Aaron P.O.V.

I sat in the hallway talking to my old friends and some new kids that seemed cool. I felt a light tap on my back. I turned around and looked down at Heaven. Before I left Heaven and I were talking heavy and she was my baby. She cried harder than Alicia the day I left. Alicia, Heaven, and I have known each other seen they were 2 and I was 3.

But when Heaven and I started talking nobody knew except then later on Heaven's mom figured it out. "Hey Aaron" Heaven said in a sweet voice as she had a nervous smile on her face. "Wassup ma" I said with my tall figure towering her smaller figure. I bent down giving her a hug and kissed her neck.

I remember the night before I left to go live with my dad Heaven gave me her virginity. That was the last night I physically seen her and I should've stayed in contact or at least told her why I was going ghost but I was young and dumb. I regret ignoring her many calls and not calling her back but I was down there working on myself.

Above all of those reasons I think I would've went crazy if I heard her voice and I knew I wouldn't be able to walk down the street and see her like I used to. It was going to drive me insane not to be able to hug her and lay on her while she laughed. So I did myself a favor and tried to cut all attachments. Now that I see her face I feel guilt eating at my heart.

Authors P.O.V.

It was a summer night hotter than no other and Aaron had just got done packing. He laid in his bed on the phone with Heaven. "Come over baby, I want to see you before you leave" Heaven said into the phone. "Okay baby I am on my way" Aaron said hanging up. Aaron put on his shoes and left out the house. Aaron walked down 3 blocks and made it to Heaven's house. He rang the bell and waited for Heaven to answer.

They talked a while before Aaron started kissing Heaven's neck. "Stop Aaron" Heaven said seriously as she slightly pushed him back. "I am sorry baby I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable" Aaron said backing up a little. Under that cold exterior and mean mug Aaron was a sweetheart at least to Heaven. Even though they were young Aaron loved Heaven and she loved him.

"No baby I want to give you my virginity, I just...just don't want to give it to you then you leave and I loose you" Heaven said with glossy eyes. "Your not baby" Aaron said kissing Heaven's lips. "I am forever going to be here for you no matter what" Aaron said honestly. "No matter what?" Heaven asked. "I promise no matter what I got you ma" Aaron said as they kissed each other passionately and intensely. That promise meant everything to Heaven and Aaron was going to eventually break it unknowingly.
