The Bad Boy's Secret

Chapter 5

"I would really love to get to know you though." I said smiling.

She finally agreed to go and we were on our way.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Sam POV-

 Aiden just asked me to go get lunch and i agreed. What does this mean?

We stopped at a place called 

   'Curry Leaf Cafe'

We took our seats across from each other. I let Aiden order for me since he has more experiences at this cafe. While we were waiting for our food to arrive we began chatting about our lives.

"Not to be nosy, but seriously why were you at the support group?" He asked curiously.

"Things have been happening at home." I respond with a weak smile.

"Like what kind of things?"He asked.

"Wow you sure are nosy." I teased.

"I'm sorry, forget i asked, whats new with you?"He said trying to make the conversation less awkward, or at least that's the vibe I'm getting.

I began telling him about my dumb ass mother and how she dragged me and my siblings all the way from California to Brighton and how its a real struggle to get used to or feel comfortable here.

"Oh fuck" He slightly chuckled.

"No swear words!" I don't curse. Mainly because, the last time I had was the accident. "Bad!" I laughed slightly and playfully punched his shoulder. 

After the fun died down, and our food arrived, which by the way was fantastic, I watched Aiden gulp down his food.

Once we were finished our delicious meals, I offered to pay my half but however. when I pulled out my crisp $10 he gently pushed my hand away and payed the whole check. I felt rude but after all, he did offer.

When I was just about to leave he ran up to me and asked if I would let him show me around town. Of course I said yes since I'm going to need to find my way around Brighton somehow.

We walked straight out of the cafe down a long sidewalk. I could only imagine what a big adventure me and Aiden would go on today. Well whatever it was, I was ready for it!

-------------------------------------

As we walked down the road he pointed out the main cafe's and different shops and such. I already knew where the Teen Support Group was so he didn't need to show me. 

After about two hours of him pointing out different places and recommendations as to where to go to hang out and such, he then said to me,

"Hey, we should start heading home now."

I agreed. We walked about twenty-four feet or so when he spoke once again.

"I uhh, Could you not tell anyone that I go to that Support Center." He asked nervously.

"No problem whats so ever. I was going to ask you the same thing." I replied truthfully.

After another couple of minutes of pure silence, he broke it by saying. "We should take the alleyways, It'll be quicker." He said confidently. 

He sure is weird. I mean he looks total bad ass but, I can tell he's a little more relaxed around me. When we were in the support group he had his guard down when he came over next to me. I don't understand. He surely doesn't like me. Does he?
