*Aiden's POV*

The warm water felt amazing. Sitting down, I let it run all over my body, relaxing me more and more as each drop hit me. I knew he was waiting downstairs for me, along with my aunt, but I took my time, unsure whether or not I wanted to join them. After sighing and doing my hair, I forced myself to head down to go to work.

My aunt had asked Tucker to join us, in case things get busy again, and he quickly agreed. Going out to the car, he took hold of my hand, then opened the door for me once we hit the club. His touch was bittersweet. I couldn't tell if I really enjoyed it, or wanted it to stop. I got nervous whenever he was around, and my left eye would start to hurt when he would let go. My aunt took everything in stride. I don't really know if she knew I was gay or not, but she didn't seem to mind in the slightest.

The night had gone by at a pretty slow pace. We didn't really need Tucker's help until after eleven, when more and more people started showing up. I couldn't explain the pit of jealousy that was hardening inside of me. Every time someone asked him for a drink, touched his arm for attention, or even looked at him with lust in their eyes, I wanted to scream.

I wasn't sure if me and him were together or not, but even before we kissed each other, I felt the same way towards all the kids at school for doing the same thing. When the place had find finally calmed down enough, she told me to take a break and get some air. Walking outside and taking a seat at one of the outdoor tables, I struggled to recall everything that happened at school today.

After the kiss, everything seemed like a blur. I wasn't even sure how I had gotten home. Memories of the kiss had flooded my mind, over taking any thought I tried to throw in front of it. His hands were trembling on my face. Holding me there, everything seemed so surreal. When he pulled away from me, that's when it started. When I started seeing things that weren't really happening. I found myself in a hospital bed, bandiged up in a number of places, while Tucker sat at the end of my bed. His lips were moving, but nothing he had said made it to my ears. That's why I had kissed him in my bedroom.

I knew it was wrong, but I had to find out if it would happen again. But it didn't. Instead, something else took place, something that made me question my feelings for him. I hadn't expected to react the way I did when his lips met mine, but something had overtaken me, giving me the bittersweet feelings that now ran throughout me. I felt his hand make its way to my shoulder, telling me I was no longer alone. The pain in my left eye faded at his touch, but chills rushed throughout my body as he took the seat next to me and pulled my hand to his. Telling me he had to go home, I felt his arms wrap themselves around me, pulling my body into a tight embrace with him.

His lips met mine for a brief moment, then he pulled himself from me, and headed for the doors. Calling for him to stop, I asked if he would say the night again. Something about tonight didn't feel right to me, and knowing he was around would make me feel a little better.

"I wish I could Aiden, but my cousin asked for me to stay home. He says he needs to talk to me about something."

After sharing my feelings about the night, he agreed to sneak over when he could then smiled, and walked away. Feeling a little better, I walked inside to help my aunt close up but fell to the ground as a sharp pain shot through my eye. I couldn't scream no matter his hard I tried, the pain had stolen any voice I would have had, and replaced it with small bits of air that shot from my lungs. After what felt like an eternity of agony, I was finally able to get to my feet.

I didn't bother tellng my aunt about my eye, cause I knew I'd get some stupid answer that didn't make sense. By the time we had finally made it home, my feeling of dread about the night seemed to have gotten worse. I waited in my bed until three thirty had rolled around, hoping Tucker would show up. Hearing something downstairs, I rushed to the door but made myself stop at the bottom of the stairs as two voices flowed into my ears, both of which I recognized, but wasn't sure how they got here or what they were doing in my house.

I could hear them shuffling around in the kitchen and knew that my aunts room was right next to her. I needed to find a way to where she slept, to warn her, but I didn't see how I could slip by without them noticing.

Reaching for the phone in my pocket, I began to silently curse myself for not grabbing it off my nightstand. Figuring my best bet was to try and quietly ascend the stairs to my room, I started to turn on my heel but stopped short as the wood beneath my feet let out a loud groan.

"Someone's awake!"

I froze in place. This voice was different, one I hadn't heard before. There was a brief sound of shuffling around in the kitchen area before heading steps coming in my direction at an accelerated rate. Pushing passed my fear, I attempted to rush up the stairs but felt something grab hold of my hair and rip my body backward and knocking the air out of my lungs as my back hit the ground.

I could see Chris and Kara standing to my right, but my eyes quickly closed as my body winced in pain. Something collided with the left side me, causing me to gasp out what little air I had left in me.

"Why couldn't you just stay away from him, Aiden?" Chris asked, disgust attached to every word before following suit with the other person and kicked into my back. I didn't have time to try and recover before another foot stomped down on my stomach. My body attempted to cover its lack of breathing my coughing heavily, but was quickly silenced as my face began to burn with pain.

At first I could feel every strike she was doing, but it soon began to fade. My body was going numb. All I could do was just stare at Kara as she threw blow after blow at me. Her eyes looked so angry, so disgusted. She was my friend, or at least, I thought she was. Another blow was sent to the side that Chris was on, then another from the other person I didn't know, but I didn't feel really anything, mostly just the pressure hit, but not really any pain.

My vision was starting to blur entirely. I wasn't sure if I was going to die here or not, all I could think about was my aunt, how I may never see her again, how they may have gotten to her first. Tucker also circled my mind, his kiss, his touch, how I may not have either of them every again. My body was floating, but I felt something underneath me lifting me from the ground.

Turning my head slightly and erupting into a couching fit, I watched as globs of blood fell from my lips before the only thing that allowed me to see was the streetlights they drove passed. I could feel my body giving out on me. I tried to force myself to stay awake, to count the lights we passed in case I could get out and use them to get home, but they all began to blur. Sending one last silent "I love you" to my aunt, I let my eyes close and the darkness overtake me.
