Chapter/Scene 3

Aiden's phone buzzed, bringing him back from his daydream, he looked at the message and threw it back on his bed, leaving his room he sneaked down the stairs, he could hear voices behind the living room door, there was clinks of glasses and laughing as well as music playing, he shook his head and opened the front door. Andy stood there beaming in his arm was his giant cup of cola and his backpack, “holy fuck it's cold what took you so long?” he said as he entered Aiden's house, he wore a baggy black jacket and beanie hat, his headphones loosely dangling down to his pocket, his jeans looked slightly damp and his trainers muddy. The pair of them went to the kitchen to pick up a few snacks, Andy grabbing the large bag of crisps and a few chocolates from the fridge, “Wow your mum knows how to drink,” he joked gesturing towards the recycling box full of empty glass bottles, the gathered his stuff,

“Yeah ….” Sighed Aiden as he picked up a few sandwiches and cans of fizz, “Hopefully they won't be to loud,” Andy laughed slight nudging him and the pair went back up to Aidens room, Andy sprawled along the bed pulling off his jacket and T-shirt, Aiden set up the games console, “I've got that new version of Living dead, wanna try it?”

“Yeah sure, I've got some dvd's to, mainly horror you don't mind, or would you have rather something more romantic to set the mood,” he laughed and slid onto the floor next to Aiden leaning on his back and rubbing his chin into his shoulder.

“Hay don't do that!” Aiden said shoving his friend, Andy fell onto his side laughing his blonde hair covered over his eyes as he smirked at Aiden, “I know who you'd rather be here,” he lazily said as he put his arms under his head, leaning on knee over the over he laid staring at the ceiling rocking his suspended foot slightly, “They have gorgeous green eyes and shiny soft hair,”

“Skye's hair doesn't shine!” Aiden snapped before realising what he said and looking uncomfortably at the floor his shoulders slumped. “Bastered” he mumbled and threw a controller onto Andy's stomach, “We playing or what?” picking up the other controller he started the game “What's your obsession with me and Skye anyway?” He asked as the game loaded, Andy shrugged and sat up kicking Aiden in the leg lightly, “Nothing just messing,” he smiled slightly and took a sip of his large drink as they began to play.

Hours passed as the pair sat shooting zombies they had gradually ended up on the bed leaning against the wall, a ring of food and drink circled them as they intensely killed their cyber enemies, “God we've beat most the levels now,” Andy sighed dropping his controller and lent the back of his head against the cold wall, stretching his long legs out he looked at Aiden who was still engrossed in the game, “lets watch a film” he said as he heard noises threw the door, “your mum sure knows how to throw a party” he turned his head back towards Aiden who seemed to have ignored the whole conversation. “They'll be up later,” he mumbled as he slid off the bed to put a on stretching, “I got some new headphones,”

“That's coo...” Andy paused, “Oh.... really she's that loud” he laughed itching the back of his neck.

“I don't want think about it,” he shuddered “I got spare if you need 'em”

“Nah maybe I wanna hear your mum screaming 'oh god, oh god yes'” he laughed mimicking a female voice,

“Do that and I’ll smash your smug face in,” Aiden scorned at Andy,

“Jeez it was a joke, I got my own headphones” he said raising his hands in defence, “no need to be so violent, I ain't into that kinda thing, you need to take me out to dinner first before I let you chain me to the bed and whip me hard,” he winked, Aiden just sat there speechless for a few seconds before bursting out laughing.
