Just Another Love Story - An Aaron X Reader

Chapter Fourteen - Montgomery?

I walked to the side of the pool hoping that they wouldn't notice me because things just started getting good and I don't really need that to change. That plan totally back fired and Aaron saw me and gave me a look that said 'Please help me with this sad Aphmau'. I walked over there slowly and looks at Aaron with a 'What do you want me to do?' face. He pointed at Aphmau who had her head kik in her hands. 'Honestly. I thought she would be better then this and at least be happy for Aaron and I.' I spoke up and said,

"Aph....I know this may be rough for you but just remember that there are SOOO many fish in the sea and you'll find another one to love."

She looked up at me and had hope in your eyes.

"You're right Y/N. I don't need to fuss over one guy who doesn't even like me for me when I can actually find someone who cares for me!"

"That's not what I said but whatever makes you happy I'm fine with!"

"Let's have fun today because that's what it's all about! ANOTHER POOL PARTY!!!"

Just then, Gale, Minty, Mitsuki, and Blossom showed up and I noticed Gale was a bit off then what she was before. Her eyes were red and puffy like she had just been crying and trust me, Gale is not one to cry. Her hair was a tad messed up which was weird because she liked to clean....a lot and she was a perfectionist. She was sniffling an awful lot and she looked like someone in her family just died. I couldn't see her like this so I went up to her.

"Gale? Are you ok?" I asked her in a calm voice. She shrugged her shoulders and looked at the ground. "You can tell me anything I'm here for you Gale."

"Ok but not in public. I don't want Jeffory to know yet...." She finally said and got up and walked into the house. I followed her and we went to the upstairs bathroom in their house. I sat on the edge of the tub and she stared into the mirror, probably thinking. She took a deep breath and began to speak.

"Well Y/N. Not many people know this about me but I was very stupid in high school. I liked to test my limits and see what else I could do in life. That's why I know so much self-defense, plus my uncle was a deputy sheriff. Well, when I was 16, I thought it would be nice to have a child. A little one who looked up to me. So...I got a sperm donor and had a beautiful baby girl...her name was Montgomery." She was basically in tears by this point.

"May I ask where she is? Or what happened to her?" I asked carefully. I didn't know what was going to happen. Gale can be scary most of the time. She broke down in tears and put her head in her hands. "Gale! You don't have to tell me if you don't want to..."

"No..you deserve to know..." She started. "Besides....I'm too old to be crying..."

"Well...you're never to old to cry..."

"Well...Montgomery was a sweet girl. She would always make me happy when I was down and I'm not one to smile. Her and I did EVERYTHING together. Except for when we had to go to school. One day, I was making her dinner because we both know that Blossom and I don't have parents. I was making dinner when I heard a knock on the door and then heard it open. I heard Blossom talking and a older, man talking....that son of a bitch...at the time, I was a sophomore in college, Blossom was a sophomore in high school and Montgomery was just starting 1st grade. I went to the door and they both looked at me. The man was smerking and Blossom had worry planted all over her face. The man introduced himself as 'Mr. Ackerman' (I'm sorry I had to) and he said that I was to young to be taking care of a child that was just starting first grade. I protested and said there were millions of women who are younger than me who have children. He didn't care and told me he had to take Montgomery to an orphanage. I told him he could never have her because she was my baby girl and I couldn't just give her away to someone I JUST met. I didn't trust him for a second. Then the police showed up behind him and knocked me to the ground along with Blossom and took Montgomery out of my sight and to somewhere where I would never see her again." She had tears streaming down her face.
