AIDEN’S POV

“Aiden! It’s time to get up! You have a hour and a half until school starts, better get moving!” My mom yelled up the stairs. 

I don’t want to go to school today, it is just going to be another day where I have to sit at a hard, very uncomfortable desk with my best friend Brandon and watch him flirt endlessly with girls while I sit there and pretend that it doesn’t bother me. 

I force myself out of bed, throw some sweats on over my boxers and head down the stairs to talk to my mom. “Mom? Do I have to go to school today? I haven’t missed a day of school so far this year!”

“Sweetie, why wouldn’t you want to go to school? Do you not feel good?” my mom asked. She is such a kind gentle woman, so caring when it came to my sister Hailey and I. She is about 5’ 5”, has long blonde hair that she normally has in a loose pony tail and she has the most amazing electric blue eyes I have ever seen other than Brandon’s, his are better. No offense mommy. 

I was trying to figure out if I should lie to her or not. Normally she can tell when I am lying. I decided to go with the truth. Well not the whole truth, but that doesn’t count as lying, right? 

“No mum, I feel fine. I just don’t want to go to school today. I don’t have any tests and I know what is going on in all my classes. I have to help Brandon out all the time. If I didn’t know what was going on we would both be screwed.” I laughed. She looked at me as if she knew something I didn’t. CRAP! I knew I shouldn’t have said anything about Brandon. She always looks at me this way when I talk about him.. She couldn’t know that I liked, NO, loved him, could she? 

“Aiden, are you sure that is the only reason?” she grabbed my had and winked. Winked? Why in the world would she wink at me? She can’t know. How would she know. I haven’t told anyone other than Hailey. HAILEY! I knew I shouldn’t have told her. 

“Yeah mum. Thats all. I am just tired of school and it’s a Monday. You know how I feel about Mondays.” she looked are my skeptically and nodded.

“Thank you so much mommy!” I yellled. “You are the best.” I said grabbing her up in a big hug. 

She laughed, “Okay Aiden, I get that you are happy and all but you don’t have to squeeze me to death!” 

I chuckled and let go, “I am going to call Brandon and tell him that I am not going to be there today and ask him if he would be so kind as to pick up my assignments in the classes that we have today.” I took off and ran up stairs, two at a time, to grab my phone that I left on my bedside table. 

When I got up there my phone was already vibrating. I looked down at the screen and saw a picture of Brandon and I when we were at the beach over the summer. Damn, why did he have to be so perfect? 

I picked up and held the phone to my ear. “What’s cookin’ good lookin’?” I hear from the other end of the phone. “Have a nice sleep? Dream of me a lot?” Oh my god, this boy is going to kill me. His voice was so deep and so yummy. I almost forgot that I was on the phone with him. “Uhhm, h-hi what do you want?” I stutter. 

“I was just calling to make sure that you were coming to pick me up still and that you weren’t still asleep dreaming about me.” God, why is he so cocky? 

I chuckle, “You wish I was dreaming about you. And I was just about to call you and let you know that I wasn’t planning on going to school today. And ask you to pick up my assignments for me.” I tried to make my voice sound pouty. He can’t resist the pouty voice. Wahahaha! 

“Man, you were supposed to pick me up and we were going to go to school together. My bus has already went by and my truck is not working right, how am I supposed to get to school now? If I can’t get to school how am I supposed to get your assignments? You really didn’t think that one through did you? I know you aren’t sick.” What? How did he know that?

“How did you know I’m not sick?” My mind was going a hundred. If he is that smart to know that I wasn’t sick without even seeing me then why is he so bad with math and chemistry? 

“I know you man. You go to school even when you are sick. So, wanna come pick me up and we can just hang out today? And you can tell me why you really aren’t going to school?” Shit. Am I ready to tell him I am gay? Let alone in love, with him? When did my life turn into such a mess? I didn’t respond right away. 

“Uhh, su-sure” Great there I go stuttering again. “I will be there in about 10 minutes.” 

“Okay, gorgeous see you then, bye.”

Why did he have to say things like that. He makes me blush so much, thank goodness we were on the phone and he couldn’t see me. 

“Bye.” I said and hung up. I ran back down stair and told my mom I was going out and that I would be back in a while, but Brandon would be with me so not to be all mushy like she always is when I have friends over. And with that I went off to get the love of my life, my best friend, Brandon.
