I was still a little shaken after everything that happened. Alec hasn't returned yet. I picked an empty room and put all my bags in there, too tired to unpack. I had one more week before college starts.I was lying on my bed thinking about everything that happened.
How could Alec not remember me? I sighed getting up from bed. I was hungry so i went downstairs to cook dinner. As i was putting the plates on the table i heard the front door open. I went to see who it was and was relieved when i saw Mr Curtis entering
"What is that smell? Did you cook, Aurora?"
"Oh my god, does it smell bad?"
"No, no! It smells amazing" his face saddened "it's been a long time since it smelled like this in my house"
"I'm sorry. 3 years?"
"Yes, i still can't believe it's been so long"
"Me neither"
"Tell me has Alexander helped you with your bags?" I felt the color drain from my face
"Y-yes, of course. But then he left" he shook his head
"How rude of him" if you only knew...
We ate together and talked about our lives. I missed him, he was always so nice to me. When i was washing the plates the front door opened. I looked over at Mr Curtis
"Alexander?" He called his son. After a few seconds he appeared in the kitchen
"Yes?" He didn't even bother to look at me
"It's very rude of you how you treated Aurora" he slowly moved his gaze to me. Oh look! He wants to kill me again. "Why did you leave her alone here?" His father asked. Alec seemed to relax a little
"I had something to do" he shrugged
"Was it more important than staying with Aurora? She was your best friend a while ago"
"Exactly, was" my expression was probably priceless right now, i was shocked and hurt.
"Alexander..." His father warned but Alec just raised his eyebrow challenging him. His father sighed. Alec just smirked and left the room, giving me a wierd look. "I'm sorry Aurora"
"Is he always like that?"
"Yes, since his mother died..." I nodded understanding.
"I'm going to go take a shower and I'll go to bed. Goodnight , Mr Curtis"
"Goodnight, dear"
I took a long shower then went back into my room wearing only a towel.
"Don't scream" but that's exactly what i did. I turned on the lights and Alec was sitting on my bed with his dirty shoes
"Aurora, are you alright?" Mr Curtis yelled from downstairs. I looked over at Alec and he said nothing
"Yes, i just saw a spider, sorry for screaming"
"Oh, alright". I bit my lip nervously looking back to Alec.
"D-did you want something?" He stood up from my bed coming close to me
"Why didn't you tell my father what i did to you?"
"Well, because... I wanted to know why you did it"
"I don't believe you" i huffed
"I want to get dressed, Alec. Can you leave?" I sighed
"I just wanted to let you know that i didn't know who you were" i frowned
"And you do that to all the people that get in your house?" he shook his head
"You wouldn't understand" and he left and i could finally breathe.
I changed in my pyjamas and dried my hair. I went in the back yard to take some air. I can't believe what is happening. Yesterday I was so happy that i could finally see Alec again and now...i just want to go back home. I saw some smoke and realized that Alec was smoking.
He saw me and looked me up and down. The heck?"What are you doing here?" He asked me
"Getting some air. You?"
"Getting high"
"What?" I asked shocked
"What?" He asked like i just asked the dumbest question. Then he rolled his eyes at me "you want some?"
"No! Why are you getting high?"
"Too much stress"
"Stress?" He nodded.
"Come here" he patted the sit next to him on the wood bench. I hesitantly sat down. "My life is hard, ok?"
"Would you have really killed me today?" I asked out of the blue. He seemed surprised at my question
"Probably" he shrugged "that's what i do" my eyes widened
"What? Alec are you fucking with me right now?" He leaned in so he can whisper in my ear but he just screamed
"I can't tell you anything or I'd have to kill you". 'he's probably just saying this things because he's high' i told myself. 'what about earlier when he tied you to a chair and wanted to kill you'
"I have to go" i said getting up but he grabbed my arm"At college, don't tell people you know me, i don't want you to get in trouble because of me" i frowned. "Just don't, ok?" He could barely speak anymore
"You have to go to your room and sleep"
"Help me?" He looked at me with those big blue eyes of his and i had no choice so i nodded. I walked him to his room and put him in his bed. "How old are you?"
"18"
"Oh, I'm 25"
"I know"
"How?"
"The age gap between us is 7 years"
"Oh, so you were 11 when i left?"
"Yes"
"Were you sad?"
"I lost my best friend, of course i was sad"
"And today? Were you happy to see me?"
"When you said you will kill me or when you tied me to a chair?"
"I thought you were a spy" he mumbled
"Why would i be a spy?"
"They usually look like you" he motioned to my body
"Like me?"
"Beautiful and...sexy" i frowned. Ok, I'm done with him acting like a child.
"Goodnight, Alec"
"Wait... Say it again"
"Alec..." I whispered.
"I missed it-"
