These Lights

Six: Closeted

A/N HOLY MOTHER OF IRENE IT CAME BACK! This was the chapter that disappeared from existence, I have no idea what happened but it's back! I hope you all enjoy it because dammit this was so fun to write and I am so happy it has returned to me!

I guess I could have gone back home, but, after Aaron's Dad left, I may have fallen asleep, and, he let me I suppose, because when I woke up, it was dark, And a big, red, thick blanket draped over top of me that was not there when I fell asleep.

The lights had been dimmed and his bedroom door was wide open I sat up and rubbed the sleep from my eyes, I didn't know what time it was, but it was late.

I slid off the couch, and went towards the open door, and looked through it.

The room was painted red with a huge black bed in the corner, a black glass desk with a very large gaming computer , and a red and black gaming chair.

A mahogany colored acoustic guitar sat in the corner, but Aaron himself was hovering over his desk, the light of the computer dancing on his face.

"Hey." I stepped into his room and he looked over, smiling.

"Hey, Sleeping Beauty." His voice was softer than I had ever heard it, and this sent chills up my spine.

"What?" He chuckles, then growls, something about this felt weird, but I went with it, I backed up into the wall.

Almost in slow motion, he cupped my cheek with his rough hand and grabbed my hips with his other.

"What are you doing!?" I blushed, I didn't understand what was going on, this was wrong.

"Come on.... don't be scared of me, let me love you." In a slow movement he kissed me, I wanted to pull away, we shouldn't have done anything.

But I didn't, and I kissed him back.

Tongues entangled in a wrestling match, he pressed me against the wall more than I already was.

He pulled back, I was dazed, what was happening? I couldn't move.

"Good Girl~" He picked me up and my legs wrapped around his waist by themselves, I wasn't in control.

"Aphmau~" He growled my name under his breath...

"A-Aaron please- I'm not-"

"Aphmau." The voice echoed, and suddenly it felt like I was falling.

"Aph!" I jolted awake, and a thick red blanket slid off me, Aaron was hovering over me, my jacket slung over his shoulder.

"It's almost midnight, get up." I just stared at him, that whole exchange was just a dream, of course it was, we'd never do such a thing.

"Huh? Oh! Thanks." I grab my jacket and bounce onto my feet, and I look around, like my dream, it's late, and the blanket that slid off me is the exact same, I look at Aaron's door, it's shut tight, like it was before.

"You okay? You were mumbling in your sleep." He asked, opening the door to go to our shared work.

"Y-Yeah... Yes! I'm fine." I had to be bright red, I could not get that dream out of my head, I didn't even like him like that.

"You sure? I can cover for you if you don't feel well." He offered, but I was already out the door.

"I'm fine! Let's go we're gonna be late." I saw him shrug and lock the door behind him.

I call the elevator and tap my foot, Aaron sighs behind me, and shivers roll down my spine.

Just forget about it, it wasn't real. Don't think about it. Don't think about it!
