Finding Me

Chapter Seventeen

He was kissing me. I didn't react. It was like it was my first kiss and didn't know what to do. I wanted to kiss him back but it was like my lips didn't work.

He pulled back and just looked at me, unsure of how I was going to act.

He brushed his hand through his black hair. His blue eyes held uncertainty. Before he could say anything I leaned in and kissed him.

I don't know how long we were kissing but we broke away and just looked at each other.

He was looking at me with a smile on his lips that reached his eyes, "You don't know how long I have wanted to do that."

I blushed at his remark. I don't blush! Why am I blushing?

I looked him in the eyes, "Me too."

He looked shocked, "Well I am glad about that because I can do this."

He kissed me again pushing me up against the wall.

I jumped up so that I could wrap my legs around his waist.

His lips starting moving down to my neck. He placed a small kiss behind my ear and I gasped at the feeling.

I heard him chuckle and he kissed me there again and received the same reaction.

"Well when I walk into a room I should start expecting this, and I should start knocking." An amused voice said.

Aiden pulled back to look at who was at the door.

"You know Angie that you should always knock," He glared at her, "How many times have you walked in on me changing?"

She laughed, "Well, not enough times to know to knock before I enter your room."

I unhooked my legs from his waist and got back on my feet.

"Well I should go so that you guys can get back to what you were doing before I walked in." She smirked, "Don't forget to use protection!" She says for the second time since I have gotten here as she walks out of the room, closing the door behind her.

I looked over at Aiden, "Well that has never happened before." I blush.

He chuckles, "Well she has walked in on me changing a few times but never making out or anything like that."

I blush more. What is it with this guy and making me blush?

"You blush a lot," He points out walking over to me and placing a hand on my cheek, "Yep it's warm."

I look down to my feet and with a small smile on my face no doubt blushing more.

Aiden places a finger under my chin and lifts my head up.

He starts leaning in when my phone rings.

I laugh and push him away from me to be able to get my phone out of my pocket. I look at the screen and see that it is my dad calling. I just look at the screen for a couple of seconds not knowing if I should answer it or not.

"Who is it?" Aiden asks trying to look at my screen.

"My dad," I say looking up at him, "Should I answer it?"

"Ya you need to talk to him Maddison, you can't ignore him your whole life."

I look back at the screen and press the green button putting my phone up to my ear, "Yes?"

"Maddison we need to talk."

"Dad I don't know if I can talk to you right now because it hurt what you said."

"Please Maddison we need to talk." He begs.

I think about it and realize that I need to talk to him about James and what we should do, "Okay but if I don't want to continue talking then the talking stops, okay?"

"Yes I can agree to that. So can you come over to your aunt's house?"

"I will meet you there. Bye dad."

I hung up and looked up to see if Aiden heard any of that. His eyes are looking into mine and he says, "I will drive you there."

"Thanks."

We walk down stairs and walk out the door.

When we arrive to the house I see my dad's car out front. I tense up not looking forward to this conversation.

"Do you want me to come in with you?" Aiden asks.

"No, as much as I wish you could I need to talk to him myself."

I slowly get out of the car and walk towards to door. I breath in and out and open the door.

I walk into the living room and don't see anybody. I walk around and look everywhere but don't see anything.

I hear my phone go off and check it to see if it is from my dad. It is an unknown number.

Unknown: Hey Maddi miss me?

I don't know how he got my number because I didn't give my number to Kennedi or anybody so how did he get it?

Unknown: You are probably thinking of how I got your number am I right?

Me: What do you want?

Unknown: You

Me: Me to do what?

Unknown: To be my love

Me: I will not! So stop texting me!

Unknown: You will if you want your family back.

An image came in and I almost dropped my phone. It was a picture of my dad, mom, and aunt all tied to chairs. By the looks of it they did not go quietly because there is a huge bruise on my dad's cheek and there is dried blood under his nose.

My mom and aunt look better than my dad but not by much. My mom has a cut above her eye and her shirt is torn. My aunt has blood in her hair and has a black eye. I was still shocked and looking at this photo when another text came in from this person.

Unknown: And if you don't do as you are told then your friends will be next.

Me: What friends?

I needed to know who he was going to go after to protect them and warn them about the danger.

Unknown: You know Kennedi, James, Aiden.

Wait James was on that list? But isn't James the one texting me? I am so confused.

Me: Wait I thought you were James.

Unknown: Me James that is a little disappointing that you don't remember me. Or should I say us?

Me: What do you mean us?

Unknown: Don't you tell me you don't remember me. The boyfriend and friend you left back in New York.

This is Jason and Grace? That doesn't make sense. Why would they do this?

Unknown: Just remember what it takes to get your family back and if you don't do anything in the next 24 hours we will start going after you little friends.

I stand there shocked when my phone beeps.

Grace: Don't you think Aiden will just love me. We both know that I was always the one boys wanted so what makes him any different?
