Peyton(POV)- "Oh!" my mom yells, probably as startled as I am. "Oh my god! Hey, mom..." I say pulling away from Aaron. "Hi to you too, and who's your friend?" my mom says, smiling. "I'm Aaron, apart of Magcon. How are you Mrs. Lescher?" he says. Damn, he's good. She gives me the 'You're lucky he's polite' look, and says she's fine. I've never been so embarrassed.

"Well mom, we were just about to go pack, so I'll come down in a little." I say nervously. "Yes, thank you. It was nice meeting you, ma'am." Aaron says. "It was lovely! Come again!" my mom responds back, waving. Was she cool with this? Whatever. It doesn't matter, but everything feels weird now. I love Jacob, so why did I kiss Aaron? I'm screwed.

Aaron(POV)- We went up to her room, and she was acting weird. "Hey are you okay?" I asked. She nodded, but didn't turn to face me. "Peyton, stop. What's wrong? Did I do something to upset you?" I ask, starting to become concerned. Should I have not kissed her again? She sniffles, and I turn her around to face me. She's crying. "Hey! Hey, hey stop. What's going on?" I say softly, wiping her tear stained cheeks. "Nothing, I'm fine." she says. Not a good liar, wow. I thought that was some freakish power girls had.

"Stop. Tell me what's wrong!" I say, raising my voice at the end. "Jacob. H-he's going to be so m-mad at me!" she whisper yells. You're joking right? "Jacob? Seriously? You're worried about," I pause trying to gain control of my body back, "About Jacob? Wow." I push by her and sit on the bed causing her to fall.

She lands with a thud, and yelps out. I totally forgot about the accident and her leg, and turned around immediately forgetting my douchey stage. "Shit! Pey, I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" I say picking her up. She moves away from me super fast and says, "Yes. I'm fine. I'll meet you at the airport." she turns away from me. Great going, Aaron. She's lying, but I let it go. If she needs something she can call Jacob.

I run down the stairs and as I'm leaving her mom yells, "Bye Aaron! Hope to see you again soon!" But I on the other hand, have a feeling she won't.
