The Babysitting Gig

11 - Paper My Feelings

Welcome back, Gators. So... I've decided for this to be my last chapter. I'm sorry for those that were liking the book, but tbh, I've lost interest in this book I love. I just don't think I'm doing enough for you'z and I wanna let you guys pick. :)

My eyes flickered open as I smelled something delicious. It smelled like toast. I looked over my shoulder and Aaron was no longer cuddling with me. Last night got extra cold and he tightened his grip on me, which made me have butterflies all night long.

Did I even sleep last night with that party wild and alive in my stomach?

I grimaced and pulled out the fork Aaron and I forgot to untie off my hair last night. My head shot up and Aaron stood behind the couch... shirtless.

"Mornin', Sleeping Beauty."

I locked eyes with him and immediately blushed, dropping my head down.

"Want some toast?"

He offered me a plate and I nodded, taking it.

"So, how did u sleep last night?" He continued.

Great, Aaron. I slept like I was in heaven, because nothing soothes me more than hosting a party for the fourth of July in my stomach.

He smirked and winked.

Bastard. Trying to tease me again.

I shook the blush off my cheeks and stuck my tongue out at him.

"Horrible. You kept on squeezing me and I couldn't breath."

I glared... and lied. I could, in fact, breath. Just as much as I liked being able to be around him. I liked that he had fallen asleep beside me, which gave me a chance to kiss him. I liked that he had squished all the butterflies out of me. I liked the morning greeting and the fact that he had made me toast like if it were an everyday thing.

"You know you love me." He joked, even though it's actually a fact.

"In your dreams, jackass." I laughed and sticking out my tongue.

He took my hand and pulled me up. He placed the plate down and hugged me.

"Nope. In yours." I could feel that sexy half smirk of his on my earlobe.

I blushed a huge shade of pink and he started chuckling up.

"Sh- Shut up." I stuttered and pushed him away.

I grabbed my toast and fiercely took a bite out of it. As I did, my phone ringed and I grabbed my bag, digging in it. My eyes widened when I saw the caller ID. I grabbed my things and fixed my hair. Aaron came close and held my wrist.

"Jes? What's wrong?"

I bit my bottom lip and pulled my wrist away gently.

"This." I answered.

His expression changed to worry.

"I have to go." I added.

I opened the door and took one last look before closing it. All I could see was confusion and a whole lot of feelings I don't want to deal with right now.

"Jessica Blue, Your going to give me a thorough explanation of why you were out all night and don't you dare tell me at Veronica's house, because I called her mother and she said you hadn't spend the night!" My mother yelled, walking back and forth.

I had my head held down in shame from making my mother worry so much.

"I am so sor-" I tried to speak, but she cut me off.
