Aria's P.O.V
"You're friend is hot." He spoke the second after she closed the door. I snapped my head towards him.
"Don't mess with her, Tyler. I'm being serious." I narrow my eyes. He laughs as we cut another red light.
"Why would I? she seems like a keeper." He smiles. I don't want Tyler messing with her emotions. This is why I kept her away from him all this time.
"She's too innocent for you so just leave her alone." I stare out the window. Small droplets of rain hit the car window creating a sooth rhythm for me.
"I'm not making any promises." He informs. We soon stop outside a huge building. I recognise it from the last time I've been her 2 years ago.
"You haven't moved yet?" I ask peering up at the tall building.
"Nah, there isn't any decent places to live in the shitty part of London." He shrugs. We enter the small lobby. The tiles on the floor were cracked and moldy, the walls were a dirty blue colour and the ceiling seemed to be crack also. Disgusted, I walked towards the elevator in a rush. The elevator doors swung open revealing a mother and her 3 children screaming and crying. She exited the lift as we enter.
"You seriously need to find somewhere else to live, this isn't sanitary." I complain, dusting off my dress. I could feel him rolling his eyes at me. We enter the 18th floor and walk down the hall to his small apartment, RM 66. He fiddles with his keys before it opens with a creak. What I saw was disgusting;Dirty dishes everywhere, a random girl sleeping on the couch, old pizza boxes and bottle. It smells like a dumpster. He pushed past me to enter his home. If I should call it a home, it's more like a dump. He took of his leather jacket revealing the tattoos covering his arms.
"Come in then." He demands. I shook me head rapidly. He sighed loudly triggering the girl to wake up.
"Good morning." She giggled to Tyler. I gag in disgust. He rudely asks her to leave which turned into an argument. She eventually left with allot if persuading. I enter the room and sit on the couch.
"You can watch T.V if you want." He smiles at me from the kitchen. I couldn't find the remote and god knows where it is.
"Need anything to drink?" He offers.
"No, I'm okay." I smile. I don't trust the water in this building. Tyler really needs to move into a real apartment. Somewhere where it is sanitary and has bigger rooms. Tyler joins me on the couch and picks out the T.V remote inbetween the cushions of the couch. He switches it on and Criminal Minds is the first thing that plays. We watched 2 episodes of the show. I've already seen them so it was nothing special. I was getting bored and it was getting late. It's almost 10 O'Clock.
"Tyler I wanna go home now." I ask getting up from the couch.
"But you just got here." He didn't take his eyes of the telly.
"Two hours ago." I correct him. He didn't say anything he was still focused on the telly.
"Just take me home, Tyler." He groaned loudly before turning the telly off and leaving the apartment. We left the building and back into his car.
"I'm gonna find you a new apartment." I speak before we leave.
"I think there is an apartment near our house you could buy, it's not that pricey." I speak again.
"I will think about it." He growls, digging his fingernails into the leather steering wheel. I don't know why he is angry, I haven't done anything wrong. All I did was offer to help him find a place.
"Why are you so angry?" I spit.
"Because you are fucking pissing me off." He spoke loudly.
"I haven't done anything, Tyler." I spoke a louder.
"You're telling me to move when there is nothing wrong with where I live." He growled crossing over a zebra crossing nearly hitting a group of teenagers.
"I just want to be close with my brother again. I haven't seen you in 6 months Tyler, 6 months." I lowered my voice. The pain of him walking out on us right after dad died 3 years ago is still fresh. We didn't talk the whole way back. He stopped right outside my house. I was about to get out when he grabbed my elbow.
"Is anyone home?" He asks
"Why?" I was confused.
"I want to talk to mum." His voice faded. What? I snapped my head to look at him. He look back at me, no emotion covered his face.
"I don't know, I think she might be working." I explain.
"Okay, call me when she comes home." He release my elbow. I climbed out quickly and walked up to the big gate. The engine roars and he is gone. I don't know when the next time I'm gonna see him is but I hope it's soon. The gate opens and I walk up to the house. I swing the door open and once again... I'm alone.
