Insane - a.a

Raine

I was driving down to Aidan's apartment. I was anxious. Really anxious because he was strange but I just couldn't keep away from him like Jen told me to. Maybe he will redeem himself tonight. I had no idea.

I parked on the other side of the street & got out. I walked over to his apartment building & stood outside the gate where I scanned for Aidan's residence button.

Mr A. Alexander it read.

I chuckled lightly & tapped on the button which made a buzz sound.

"Are you a murderer?" his voice buzzed through the speaker.

"Why yes I am. I know you ordered your usual but I hope I'll do," I chuckled.

"I like you more than my usual. I'll be done in a sec," he signed off as I waited for him.

I saw his body appear on the staircase behind the gate as he wore a black sweater & glasses. He saw me & smiled, shifting his hands to open the gate.

"I'm glad you came," he smiled & took me into his arms.

"Glad to be here," I looked up at him & smiled.

"You look so beautiful under the faint disgusting mustard hallway light," he smiled with a minute chuckle.

"Thank you," I blushed deeply as he led me upstairs to his apartment. He opened the door & I walked inside to his magnificently antique apartment.

"Your apartment is so cute," I gushed.

"Thanks. I tried to go with your look," he smirked & held my hand. He fell back onto his couch & took me with him.

"You want something to eat?" he asked politely.

"I'm fine with anything really," I nodded.

"Alright coming right up," he smiled & walked into his kitchen.

I then looked around his living room & took notice of every detail. His TV, his white leather couches, his photo frames. I then realised something strange. There were three aligned photos of me sitting on top of his fire place.

"Photos of me?" I whispered to myself. He then walked out with a big box of pizza & I noticed it was my favourite pizza place.

"How'd you know?" I gasped.

"I know everything about you remember," he gave me a look.

"Oh yeah," I chuckled uneasy. He set the box down on his coffee table & I took a slice.

"I'm sorry about last night. I shouldn't have freaked like that. You were right," he justified.

"It's okay. I shouldn't have been so blunt about the situation," I shook my head & ate & he stared at me.

"What now?" I chuckled as I held my hand in front of my mouth.

"I just. You're so beautiful. So elegant. Magnificent. I can't stop looking at you. I really can't. I just wanna keep you to myself. Away from prying eyes. Because this world doesn't deserve you," his voice silenced.

"Oh Aidan," I said softly as I looked at his big blue eyes. I ran my fingers through his blonde hair as I felt his warmth shift closer to me. He gently pressed his lips against mine & clung on until I let go. I didn't want him to get attached to kissing me all the time.
