Forsaken

Building on trust

"You know... I've really enjoyed spending the day with you." I smiled looking at Aaron as he tweaked his cowboy hat.

"Well you're quite welcome little lady." Aaron responded making me giggle.

We'd gone around Bonnie Springs twice, I just couldn't help but love the place, apart from the obvious signs of technology such as our phones and camera, I really felt like we were in Old Nevada. We'd done the petting Zoo and on a few occasions I slipped back letting fans meet Aaron.

"So... does this mean that I get a second date?" He asked hopeful.

"What? You expect more of my time?" I questioned, his face fell before he realised I was kidding.

"Oh you're kidding... phew." He sighed making me grin.

"I say yes to another date! That's if you really want too.." I added.

"Absolutely, I enjoy your company. So... Ready for the last bit?" Aaron asked as we stepped towards the bus.

"Yes, a 100%! I've watched Rambo, so I think I can do this." I nodded confidently.

We got on getting two windows beside each other, I stayed quiet whilst they explained about the zombie shoot. I had noticed as they spoke Aaron had put his hand on the small of my back. Something I took comfort in.

"You okay with shooting theses yeah?" He whispered as they finished up.

"Uh huh. But if I get stuck.. I can ask you?" I guessed. The smile on his face and twinkle in his eye confirmed that question.

"Let's shoot!" He called making the bus cheer around us.

As much as I wanted to do this, I couldn't help watch Aaron as he swung his paint balling gun back and forth hitting each zombie that appeared. My jaw had also fallen at how quick he was, where as I was ridiculously slow, at one stage Aaron even had to position the gun properly.

"How are you so good at this?!" I shouted over the whooshing of the guns.

"It's because I'm amazing!" He called back making me giggle.

I couldn't agree with him more!

By the time we had got around, Aaron was out and I had given up my gun to sit and watch him in amazement. Once he was finished he looked over at me with a grin.

I was about to speak when a few fans noticed him and he was called away for photos and autographs. Slipping off the couch I stood there and watched him interact with a few younger kids who knew him. He pulled stupid faces in almost every photo which had me laughing quietly. He really was a character.

"Sorry, sorry." He apologised once the little crowd dispersed.

"No, never apologise for that. It's cute, you're adorably cute with kids." I smiled.

"Brownie points. Hey uh-- I just noticed the time. I hope you haven't minded being with me all day." He answered as he unlocked his car.

"Absolutely not! It's the best fun I've had since coming to Vegas... If I'm honest Aaron, and I don't want to scare you away but every time I spend time with you, you make me insanely happy."

He smiled "Even in the elevator?"

"You calmed me down." I answered climbing in beside him.

"Yeah, guess I got my uses."

We left Bonnie springs after an action packed day, I felt a little sad to see it shrink in the side mirror but it wasn't just the place, it was the company as well.
