Summer Romance

Chapter 16

While standing under the shower I once again couldn't help myself and thought back to last night. A smile grew on my face as I was washing my body and remembering all the places Aaron had kissed or touched merely hours or minutes earlier.

I took my time letting the water run over my body because I was anything but focused, but I eventually got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body and one around my hair and went back into the room.

It was empty, Aaron wasn't there anymore instead I found a letter lying on the bed.

I left as I was commanded – Can't wait to see you again at breakfast – A x

I smiled and got dressed, then blow dried my hair and put it up in a bun before sitting down on the bed and grabbing my phone from the bedside table. The first ring wasn't even finished when Nat picked up the phone.

"Tell! Me! Everything!", she practically yelled at me making me laugh.

"I have no idea what you're talking about.", I teased her.

"Don't try to play with me! I'll be in our room in five minutes, and I want all the juicy details!", she said and hung up. Again, I laughed and let myself fall back on my bed with a loud but happy sigh.

I didn't check the time but from my comprehension of time and the minutes that passed on my phone display more than five minutes had passed, when I heard loud knocking at the door. I rolled my eyes wondering why Nat didn't use her card but got up and opened the door.

"Hey, you.", I said smiling. But instead of screaming and squealing all Nat did was looking at me with the most serious expression I had ever seen on her. I frowned starting to worry. "Nat, what happened? You look as like you've seen a ghost." I had to smile about my reference to her, but there was not even the hint of a smile on her face. "We gotta talk.", she simply said and entered. "It's important." She passed by me on her way to the bed and sat down leaving me behind puzzled. "What happened?", I asked as I followed her and sat down next to her.

"It's about Aaron."

Aaron's POV:

I entered our room, closed the door behind me and leaned against it. I had to smile widely, while remembering the previous night. I then took a deep breath and fully entered the room finding George sitting on his bed with his phone in his hands.

"Hey there, Mister Womanizer.", he greeted me with a wide grin. I chuckled quietly. "Well? How was it? Looks like our plan succeed."

I looked at him in confusion. "Our what?"

"Our plan? The reason we took this trip in the first place?" I had to think for a moment and chuckled when I remembered. "Right, the plan. I totally forgot about that."

"But you got what you wanted.", George said.

I sat down on my bed and looked him. "Okay, first of all, you wanted that. It was your idea. And second, I got much more than that. I really like Scarlett, she's kind, funny, cute, nice, beautiful and most important, she is normal, when I'm with her.", I said and smiled.

George looked at me with a frowned forehead.

"Forget that stupid plan. I fell in love with Scarlett, and I want to be with her for a long time. Much longer than this trip."

George didn't seem to expect to hear that from me because he opened his eyes widely. "Oops", he simply said quietly.

"Oops?", I asked him, suspecting something bad was up. "Oops what?"

He took a deep breath, suddenly looking very uncomfortable.

"George, what do you mean oops?", I asked insistently.

"There might be... a slight chance, a teeny tiny possibility, that..." He sighed.

"George."

"I told Nat about the plan.", he finally confessed.

My eyes widened and I jumped off the bed. "Are you shitting me?", I yelled at him.

"I'm sorry, man, okay? I thought you were still on board with our plan and Scarlett was okay with it! Knew about it even.

"Jesus, George! Are you living under a rock? What the hell have you done!", I yelled and rushed to the door.

"What are you doing?", he asked, as he followed me.

"I'm trying to safe my relationship."
