Lizzie

"Just calm down" I tried to make him calm down, He's very pissed at traffic. We're stuck in traffic for thirty minutes and he's going to blow a fuse.

"When we arrived at my apartment, I'm going to make you a delicious sandwich" He sighed, His grip at the steering wheel softened.

"I'm...just really hungry and It's almost half to seven o' clock" This is a desperate call. I made my way to the backseat and took away his head rest.

"Lizzie, What are you- That's feels good.." I massaged his temples. He's really tensed about traffic.

"After we make throught that stop light, It's going to be a five minute drive to my apartment. So, Just chill for a moment" I tried my best to make him calm.

It's been ten minutes after we got through the traffic, I'm relief that he's in a cool mood now. I'm going to put all my effort into the sandwich, He hasn't eaten anything this afternoon. He worried me.

We arrived at my home, I lead him the way to ny apartment. I was glad that it wasn't that a mess.

"I'm making you sandwich, how about rest for a while" I told him and made him seat on the sofa with books.

"But I want to help" He gripped my arm, and lightly pulled me into the sofa.

"Aaron, You haven't eaten anything this afternoon. Just let me cook for you" He was still holding my arm.

I kissed him on the cheeks, We stared at each other with a blush. I don't know what to do, He always kept insisting.

"Please" I smiled softly, I felt his hand let go. He has a smile on his face, I thought that I won but he carried me.

"Aaron, Put me down" I squealed, I heard him laugh. He put me down in the kitchen.

"You're so light" His arm crossed, looking at me worriedly. He cares about me.

"I'm just light, Don't worry. I'm fine" My words made him feel secured.

I tiptoed to open the top cabinet, I saw the bread.

"Small girls should have tall boyfriends, There are some situation that are just like this" He reached the bread for me.

"I'm not that small" I'm so defensive but I love my height. He patted my head.

"No, You're cute sized" I blushed, This is night is going to be long.

I made three sandwiches, two grilled cheese and one steak. When we started to eat, I just love his expression.

"This is really good, I just love homecooked meals" He's really enjoying it.

"If you want, You can always come here. I can make you homecooked meals. I think Scarlett won't mind" I offered, taking a bite of my grilled cheese.

"If Scarlett approves, Chris mentioned that she's a little protective over you" I saw him looked confused before finishing his first sandwich.

"Yeah. If you're really close to her, she tend to be protective" I smiled, I poured two glasses with soda. I handed one to him

"Besides, She likes you...for me than Neil" I remembered how angry Scarlett was when she found out the affair

"She has her bet on me?" He asked, he patted his hand before wiping it with a tissue.

I nodded, I finally finished my sandwich.

After washing up, He decided to stay a while. We talked about things, mostly both of our past relationship.

"My mom has a hunch about Sam, but I dismissed it because I was blind of love. I came back to my mom...crying. I regret dismissing her that way. She still took me home and gave me advices" He continued his story, His exes are really a bunch of jerks.

"You deserve someone better" I stated, He really deserves better.

"And I hope you're that someone" He made me blush again, I hid my face with a pillow.

"Don't hide your beautiful face" He tried to take pillow, I was squealing no. He made lay at the sofa, and he took the pillow out of my hands.

"You know, I really got this feeling that we had met before" He confessed, It made me sat up. He's right, I also got that feeling.

It made me think, A memory popped out. It was a rainy day, I sat alone on the park, dripped in rain. Someone sat with me. He looked depressed.

'We're just having bad days, Our good days will come. Just wait' The man said before leaving his umbrella for me.

"We're just having bad days" I muttered, Aaron continued my sentence.

"Our good days will come, Where did you hear that?" It was him, I stood up amd headed to my room. I kept the umbrella that he left, Maybe he'll remember it.

I came back to the living room, I smiled when he stood up surprised by the thing that I was holding.

"You're that lonely girl?" He was so surprised, I nodded at his question. I hugged him so tight.

"Thank you for saying that sentence to me...It really save my life" I cried, He hugged me tighter.

"You know, I was suppose to kill myself that day but you came and s-saved me" I stuttered, He let go of me. He wiped out the tears that was flowing through my cheeks.

"We saved each other...Maybe this is fate saying that we're meant for each other"

"Lets see, If we fall in love within the next seven days. The first one to confess will buy the other cookies and ice cream" I challenged, He gave me a smirk

"Challenge accepted" I hope he's the one
