Chapter 8 – Love/Hate

Ariiayla's POV

At 1pm we pulled into some services in Birmingham.

   "We'll take away" Keane said once we were all out of the car, I looked at Noah, he wouldn't look at me. Tayte took my hand and squeezed it as we walked in. I went to the loo and came out 2 minutes later. The boys weren't out yet, I leant against the wall,

"Arii, Arii" I heard someone call in a strange accent, I span around,

"Alexis", He smiled,

   "I knew I would see you again"

"Oh did you now" I said smiling,

  "I'm again sorry for grabbing you before" He was so sweet.

"It's okay", he went to say something when my brothers and Tayte came over,

   "You again, what did I fucking tell you the first time?" Tayte spat squaring up to him,

"Tayte no" I said, standing in front of him,

   "I will go" Alexis said,

"I don't think so"

  "Tayte, enough"

"Who are you?" Keane asked,

"Alexis, I met Ariiayla before at other services"

  "You're the one who grabbed her?"

"Yes, but I mean no harm"

  "Stop lying" Tayte snapped,

"Tayte walk away, please, go and calm the hell down", I told him, he went to argue but stopped when I glared at him,

  "How old are you?" Keane asked,

"19" He replied. Hmm decent age, only a 3 year difference. There is 5 years between Tayte and I.

  "What are you doing here?" Noah asked,

"I'm with some family friends, we looking for...um, yeah"

  "You're looking for who?"

"Nothing, no one, I must go now"

   "What's your number?" I asked, he beamed a massive smile and gave it to me then left,

  "You don't help yourself you know that" Keane said to me as Noah walked off to find Tayte,

  "It's just a number"

"You don't know him"

  "Is that why Noah left?"

"You know he worries and blames himself when things happen to you", he slung an arm around my shoulder,

  "Is he ever going to forgive me?"

"Of course he will Arii", we walked over to join the others in the McDonalds queue. Tayte looked at me with puppy dog eyes,

"I'm sorry, I just saw red, you know I'm protective, I have every right to be, you don't know him and..." I stopped him talking by standing on my tiptoes and planting a gentle kiss on his lips,

"I know, it's okay", I looked over at Noah, he said something to Keane and then left, "Where's he going?"

  "Back to the car, he has a headache",

"Oh", I said sadly. We ordered our food, two chicken legends with mayo and two with salsa, plus some onions rings, 3 cokes and 1 Fanta. Tayte paid and then we leant against the counter waiting,
