The Creationist

Chapter Eight: Work it

Its been a few days and Aaron has stayed the night each night. I was still uncertain to how to act around him after him declaring his love to me. I never gave him a response. I just smiled that night and went to bed. 

Bitch move, I know. But seriously! How do you respond to that? Like 'oh yeah, love you two', or 'OMG you finally said it! I love you two bae!'. Yeah no. 

As I've explained my history between Aaron and I already, you can understand my hesitation and confusion to the whole situation. Right? Maybe I'm just a bitch. But oh well...

Currently I was with the gang, minus Aaron. He found our plan to be childish and pointless. Yes, cause hanging out in an abandoned junk yard to just cause havoic is childish. 

Okay so I see his point. But what ever. 

I was with Tyler, Denni, Lance, Jefferson (shocker) and Randy. I was sitting with Denni on an old couch watching the boys set fire to an old tire. Well, Tyler setting the tire on fire as the other guys cheered him on. Damn, you think he was getting it on with the hottest girl in school with the way they were hooting and cheering. I rolled my eyes but a chuckle escaped my lips. 

Fine, so I secretly wanted to be cheering as well. Sue me. 

"So, what's going on between you and Aaron?" Denni smirked beside me. I let out a long sigh and hung my head. 

"I have no idea, girl. He told me he loves me though." Insert long shrieking "AWWW" here. I covered my ears and tried to protect my sensitive ears. Good god this girl can get loud.

"What's going on over there?" Lance called over with a raise eyebrow and a small smirk playing on his face.

"Nothing." I replied at the same time Denni said "Aaron declared his love!" I quickly imagined duct tape over her mouth and she was finally silent. Finally. 

"What was that?" Tyler asked, as Jefferson looked pissed. Oops. 

"Nothing, Denni is just being herself and assuming shit," A muffled protest came next to me but the duct tape couldn't be removed. Ha ha. 

"Hey Abi, come here." Jefferson said. I just nodded my head and gave Denni one last glare before getting off the couch and towards my body guard. 

"waabutdatoop" I looked over my shoulder and saw Denni gesturing to her face. 

"Can you breathe?" She nodded. "Then you're fine." I kept walking off. I could feel the death glare starting to burn into the back of my head. A slient Denni is a good Denni. Oh great, Now I have the Dormouse from Alice: Maddness Returns* in my head. Good job me. 

"What's up?" I asked once I was in reaching distance of him. 

"Come here, I wanna show you something." He took my hand, and I swear. God dammit, there were tingles. Body, can you just like get over all of this. Or pick one by now brain. Because I can't handle these effects any longer. Let me be single, and these annoy effects go away, or get with one. Good gracious. 

"Where are we going?" I asked once we were away from the group. Tyler was watching us but the other guys were to busy lifting up old cars or steel graters. I think they were playing base ball. Lance and Randy are so weird. 

"Look," Jefferson tugged my hand and pointed to behind the fence line of the junk yard. There was a feild with different types of wild flowers in it. It was beautiful. I gasped and gave a huge smile. 

"It's sooo pretty!" I said and ran up to the gate. It shook under my sudden collision into it but I didn't care. It was seriously pretty! It was yellow, and purple and white with some sprinkle of blue. I wanted to run in it but I knew as soon as I did, I would regret it. Hay fever* is a real pain. 

"It is." Jefferson said next to me. "So, you and Aaron?" 

"No." I simply said. I saw him visible relax and could feel the smile on his face. Strange.

"Good, I don't think he's good for you." I looked at him. 

"Why is that?" turning my body and leaning against the fence. He simple shrugged before turning to look me in the eyes. Those damn blue eyes. 

"Because, you seem like the type who wants a guy who can enjoy himself and enjoyably hang out with the group. Not someone who will tell you what you can and can't do and wants to live a life boringly. I mean, he didn't want to come here to have fun because it's "childish"." 

Dang, he had some good points. And everything was pretty much dead on. But I didn't want to even think about it. 

"Me and Aaron are only friends. Yes he wants to have something between us because he didn't try before he went off to the war. But I really don't think I want to persure a relationship with anyone at the moment. I mean, for gosh sakes! I'm being hunted by the Fallen to be a super weapon to their deranged and messed up plans. I just want to be single and worry about that for awhile. It's bad enough I have to go with him to the capitol soon! Which I don't want to do. But apperently, the leaders want to meet with me or some shit-" I realized that I had gone off into a rant and needed to stop talking. I looked up into Jefferson's eyes and saw a small smile in them. 

Jefferson then did something unexpected. He pulled me into his arms for a hug. And dang, what a hug. I mean, you know how there are some people are just great at hugs. Well he was one. 

" I get it, I understand. But hey, I'll be there with you. And so will the rest of the gang. Package deal now. Tyler wouldn't let you go with out all us guys there to protect you. So how about you ignore big mister boring Aaron for now," his smirk was hard not to notice and it caused my to giggle. "And enjoy the guys throwing shit at each other."

"OMG EW! They're throwing shit at each other?" I gasped in mock horror with a look of disgust on my face. He only chuckled and pulled me back to the group. 

"So was that all you need to ask me?" I asked smiling. He nodded and smiled down to me. 

"Yup, because even though that guy hired me, doesn't mean I like him. Nor trust him." I only nodded. I got it, he doesn't know Aaron like the rest of us do so I understand the distrust in him. And him showing up suddenly after these past years is strange. 

Come to think of it-

"Dude! Abitha! Check this out!" I snapped my head up to see Randy currently balancing three beat up junked cars above his head with some other junk with it. Then suddenly a steel pipe flew threw it and knocked Randy over with it. Lance was cackling and gasping for air from behind me, laughing so hard. 

Boys. 

~!~!~!

Yay! Finally a dang update! Okay let me explain a few things, but first: 

Alice: Madness Returns : It's a video game incase you don't know by American Megee, it's a sequeal to his first game 'Alice' and they're both violent and amazing in story line. And Maddness is just straight up beautiful with its art work. If you don't like the story, at least you can enjoy the art of the game. 

Then Hay Fever: it's just common allergies to pollen. I have it and it's a pain. Spring is the worst season for me and causes head aches and stuffed up nose and such. I hate it, and I know others who have it don't like it either. 

Okay, so in reguards to the Character Denni (I forget if I spell it with one N's or two). She is based off my bff Dezi, so if there times where you read Dezi, that is why. I will fix them in future edits but currently I am just trying to get theses out there and will edit when it's done like completely. 

Actually all the character are based off friends of mine. Only four have the same names, the rest are just based on them and have names changed. Tyler, Nick, Aaron and Lance. simply because those guys don't know about this so it doesnt matter. And I would prefer not having the other characters with the same names as my friends just to have some essence of a character rather then a straight up person. 

So yes, long A/N but I needed to clarify things. 

Love you all <3 Ashlynn
