The Trustworthy {COMPLETED}

Chapter 8

"Oh honey, you look so tired."

I woke up from two nightmares and then I just stayed up for the rest of the night. So far my morning hasn't been going so well. Jake is sitting down, with his phone in his hands texting. I swear I know this boy from somewhere. Aaron and Bruce make their way downstairs and notice that the room looked dead.

"Why is it like a ghost town in here?" Aaron asks Christina.

Christina and Aaron both look at me. When Aaron looks at me, he notices that I'm tired.

"Oh." is all he says.

Aaron makes his way over beside and sits down beside me. I rest my head on his shoulder and he puts his arm around me. I feel my eyes become heavier and heavier. After a few minutes of fighting my sleep, I finally give up and let the darkness swallow me whole.

~*~*~*~*~*~

I wake up from a dreamless sleep and realize that I was in my bedroom on my bed. I make my way towards my bathroom and do my usual morning routine. I make my way downstairs and I hear talking in the kitchen.

"Bruce, are you sure?" I hear Christina ask.

"Yes Christina I'm sure, we need to watch our backs she could hurt anyone of us." Bruce says.

Who is he talking about when he says 'She'? I walk down the stairs into the kitchen. I don't feel right eavesdropping.

"Good morning." I say as normal as possible

"Good morning Tara." Christina says smiling

I look over to Bruce smiling but he doesn't acknowledge me. The tension in between us could be cut with a knife. Aaron makes his way into the kitchen and notices the tension between everyone.

"What'd I miss." he says, concern written all over his face.

"Nothing, come on lets practice" I say taking his hand and leading him to my room.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Aaron and I practice non-stop without stopping. We finally decided that we were going to take a break. I decided on playing music, so I start playing 'I Wish' by One Direction. I begin to tap my feet to the beat. I look over to Aaron and notice that he was staring at me.

"What?" I ask smiling.

"Nothing, I was just thinking." he says, looking away.

"About what?" I say, not being able to stop myself " I'm sorry, you don't need to tell me."

He chuckles a bit while I put my head down in embarrassment.

"It's OK Tara, you don't have to be embarrassed." he says, gripping my chin softly and lifting it so my eyes are looking straight into his "I was just thinking about when I first met you and comparing it to now."

I feel sparks as his hand came in contact with my chin, causing me to shiver a little. I look into his eyes and smile at him. He smiles back and places his hand behind my neck. Soon I notice that the space between us was getting smaller and smaller. I look into his eyes and he does the same. I close my eyes and feel Aaron's lips against mine. I instantly feel sparks course through my body, making me want more. I slip my arm around his neck and he puts his hands on my waist. We break apart, breathing heavily placing our foreheads together and looking into each others eyes. I smile at him and he smiles back. I wish I could freeze this moment right now.

"Ya, me two" he says, smiling

Oh shoot, did I say that out loud?

"Yes you did" he says, laughing

I smile nervously before looking down at my lap. Well this is embarrassing.
