Finding Me

Chapter Twenty

Maddison's POV~

After Aiden left I felt really confused on how he was acting. I mean one second he was kissing me and wanting to be there for me when I went over to talk to my dad. Then he is yelling at me for some unknown reason.

I can't keep thinking about this. I need to concentrate on a way to get my family back and keep my friends safe. I just don't know how that is going to happen.

I don't want to be with Jason but I don't want anything to happen to the people I love.

I don't want anything to happen to Aiden. I don't know if I love Aiden but I can see my loving him and having a life with him. Wait I can't think of this because knowing him my heart is just going to be broken.

I walked around thinking. I don't know what to do! I mean I know what I should do; I should go and tell him that I am going to be his but then I know that I won't be happy about it.

I can't think of anything so I grab my workout bag and my keys to my bike and take off to the gym.

Working out helps me think and relax. I don't know why but it was always one of the sure things in my life. I reach the gym and walk in.

"What is your name?" The lady at the front desk asks.

"Maddison," I reply.

She types something in the computer and looks back at me, "You can go in now," She tells me unlocking the door to the gym and all of the workout equipment. I look around and see what I came here for, the punching bag.

I start walking towards it while wrapping my hands thinking on what I should do. What drills I should do.

I get to the bag and start with a simple drill and start punching and kicking the bag.

I don't know how long I was here for but when I look around I don't see anybody here and it is dark outside. I sigh and walk over to my bag to get my towel to wipe off the sweat on my body.

While punching the bag I think I figured out a way to get my parents back. I will agree to Jason's deal and just play along until I can get free. I know that it probably isn't the best plan but it will make who I love safe.

I unwrap my hands and walk out of the door that leads to the parking lot. I have my head down looking through my bag for my keys when I find them I look up and freeze.

A person is leaning up against my bike. I slowly walk towards the person when they look up. I stand still when I realize that it is Aiden.

I look at him confused, "What are you doing here?"

He just looks up at me then pushes off my bike and starts walking towards me, "I need to tell you something."

I don't know but I have a feeling that whatever he says right now will mess up my plan.

"I know that we have only known each other for a short while but I can't stop these feelings," He tells me looking deep into my soul, "I love you or I am on the path to love you, but these feelings that I have for you are so strong that I just can't leave you alone. I know that your boyfriend or whatever was here because you friend from New York told me, but I just had to tell you so that you would know how I feel before you chose who you love."

I just look at him for a while opening and closing my mouth like a fish. I don't know what to say to that. That feeling that I had was right. He just made going on with this pan a whole lot harder. I mean I don't know if I love him quite yet, but I know that I have very strong feelings for him.

"It's okay if you don't feel the same way," He sighs and looks down, "And if you don't want to see me anymore."

That shocks me out of whatever trance I was in. I walk over to him very quickly and kiss him. I don't know why but it just feels right.

After a while I pull away, "I don't know what I feel for you but I know that I feel something. And I have never felt like this for anybody."

He looks at me and then kisses me hard. We make out for a couple of minutes, forgetting what is going on around us.

After our little make out session we go to Aiden's house. We talk and make out a little more. I fell asleep in his arms. It felt right.
