Beep beep beep beep...
The alarm went off for the seventh time beeping loader and loader as time passes. Tossing and turning annoyed by the agonizing sound of her phone that was buried somewhere under her thirty piled pillows. She stretched her arms searching for the source of her sleep deprivation. " Ugh... Where is it!" After further digging she sat up frustrated, tossed some of the pillows and grabbed her phone putting it back on snooze; then she placed it on her side table and laid back down to continue her sleep. Just then her door swung open and footsteps rushed in. "Aaron! The policia is calling again. WAKE UP!" Lena Aaron's latin childhood nanny panicked as she paced the room trying to wake up the nineteen year old.
Aaron sat back up remembering that Lena is here to visit her for the week "I locked my bedroom door last night." She said curious as too how Lena got in so easily. "Your Mama gave me a spare key for emergencies," Lena replayed. " Well clearly this isn't" Aaron leaned on her headboard. " Are you crazy the policia called twice. You have to get up right now and get clean and get dressed..." "Ok I'll get up just come massage my back first." Lena huffed and held her head while walk to Aaron's bed "My headache... When are you going to grow up and be like your sister? When you were kids she used to do everything by herself not like you." Aaron faced the opposite side getting ready to get massaged when she felt a slap on her back. "Stop acting spoiled and get up."
2 hours later
Aaron sitting at officer Diaz's desk waiting for him to come out of the meeting room. Twirling in his chair to face the other officer sitting on the desk behind. "Hey, Lanny how long will this meeting take" The officer she called looked at her with an annoyed face. "You shouldn't be sitting on that chair please just go wait on the benches"
Just then another officer walked in and sat a guy on one of the benches to lock his handcuffs on the side arm rest. Aaron's eyes followed them but still replied to the officer sitting behind her. "Who's that? Is he one of those new rookie officers?" "You know what just stay where you are and don't talk to anyone until Diaz is back"
Aaron ignored everything he said and got up, made her way to the unfamiliar officer and sat on the bench in front of him. "Hey there, what a handsome face like you doing here?" The young officer was confused and looked around the place and then back at her and said. "Are you looking for someone" Aaron smiled and replied, "I think I found him"
"Campbell! Get your ass back here." A voice came from across the room. Aaron looked up and found Diaz at his desk, rearranging all his things that she messed with while he was away. Aaron sat back on the chair in front of Diaz's desk. "Didn't I tell you to stay seated here" folding her arms on her chest "Well Lanny told me to sit on the benches" "That's not his name"
Aaron rolling her eyes "He looks like a Lanny". Diaz getting frustrated "Forget it. Tell me who is involved in the string of vehicle vandalisms on campus" ...
Later that day
Aaron walked through her cousin's front door. "Shay, I brought donuts."
"Your late." Shay answered from the living room while petting her cat Zelda, with her long plastic fake nails. "Come sit, there is an important matter that needs to be discussed." Aaron sulked to the sofa. "What is it now?"
" I saw a familiar face today on my way to the vet for Zelda." Shay said, while brushing through her cats fur and keeping her eyes on her younger cousin. Aaron rolled her eyes at Shay's dramatic attitude. "Shay stop the drama. Why did you call me here?" Shay lifting her brows cunningly "I saw Charles today."
Aaron slouching on the couch "you mean Charley, Mike's brother?" Shay squinting her eyes teasingly and pouting her lips "Yes Charley Hastings, Mike's older brother. You know him." "Don't start. Just don't."
"Mikey your ex from high school." Aaron sitting up "Shay! Stop it." Shay continued "Mikey your first kiss." Aaron stood up annoyed "By the way why are all the curtains and lights closed?" "Don't change the subject. Anyway I didn't call you her to talk about this."
Aaron took off her jacket and hung it on the rack and walked to switch on the lights. "Don't touch it." Shay insisted not wanting any light ruining the dramatic mood that she has made for this meeting. "Fine." Aaron gave up and sat back down and looked at Shay noticing something familiar. "OH MY GOD. I know this look. Stop playing matchmaker. Who is it this time?" Shay pushing Zelda aside and getting excited, "Its Shain."
"Wait. Shain and Charley? It will never work and you know whose fault that is."
"First of all that's irrelevant second trust me it will. I've seen him, he's taller, muscular and lets not forget the last time we saw him at Thanks giving dinner he was enrolling for the army."
"What do I get from this?" Aaron starting her negotiation.
"MY GOD its like making a deal with the devil, but you're right, its only fair that you too get something out of this not just me and Shain. So, remember that cute intern" Shay said as she rolled her eyes and continued "the one that runs behind your sister like a lost puppy."
"Proceed."
"I will just need you to break something in her apartment then I will call Charles to help fix it at the same time that she comes back from work. And obviously Nathan will be with her. So I will need you to distract him because god knows that this boy brings bad luck with him wherever he goes and I cant risk him ruining everything."
"Stop over exaggerating Shay he never does anything."
"You don't know anything about that snake, I don't like him but I know you do so I'm helping you out, so help me. Lets just hope this one works."
