Losing All Hope

Chapter 6 - A love-hate freindship

Just need to say something before I begin! I was helped alot with this chapter by @Princesskittycat who is an amazing writer and person! she is soo talented and you should all go and fan, vote and read her stories! xxx Thank you!

As I sat on the massive, king sized bed in Haydens bedroom next to Aiden, I began to fidget: I don't know how long it takes to make popcorn, but I expect that it doesn't take this long.

We are about to watch a film up here, and Aiden decided we do need popcorn -after a long and rather 'odd' debate - so practically ordered Hayden to go and make us some.

Hayden had been chattering for ages about nothing so after Aiden and I had slammed a various amount of pillows in his face we sent him downstairs to make popcorn as a punishment.

"Wow he couldnt be taking any longer could he, now he will pay for his tardiness." I hear Aiden's joking voice whisper into my ear.

So hopping off the bed, without a word, Aiden begins to set off to make Hayden pay for his sins.

Downstairs, the kitchen to our left, I walk along the wall, running my fingers across it's smooth surface and into the room to see Hayden casuallly standing by the units, delibratly not bothering with making anything.  

He smiles as I enter the room despite my teasingly evil stare.

" WHERE IS MY POPCORN? " Aiden shouts (I think I can feel the ground shake a little) I place my hand on my hips in a mocking way, glaring at him like Aiden as his smug little grin spreads wider across his face with each word.

"when I come back I expect to hear the two of you, unless you actually don't want any, to be making popcorn." I reply before walking away to the toilet.

As I am about to walk back into the kitchen, I hear Aiden and Hayden's raised voices, muffled by the thick wooden door.

Not wanting to pry on my two new friends, but having to all the same, I strain my ears; I try to atleast pickup what the quarrel was about.

"I know you like her, but she's mine." I hear one of them say, but their voices are so familar I cant decifier who it is.

"She's mine you moron, why do you think shes in my house. " That must be Hayden but that would meen their talking about me.

They can't be; It makes no sense. I cant just stand here and not know, I have to find out.

As I walk into the kitchen they both glare at each other, hardly noticing my precsence. Then at the top of their lungs they shout,"Alys is mine!".

They are fighting over me.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Their screaming is ringing in my ears, filling my whole body and making me want to burst with fury. 

"Why would she want you Hayden!? Your not exactly much of a looker are you!?" I can hear Aiden's viscious voice tearing through Hayden's heart.

"Well..." An awkward silence fills the room as Hayden tries to think of something to say. "Shut up Aiden!" 

The bag of popcorn goes flying through the air towards Aiden as I try to scream over the heated conversation.

It explodes in Aidens face and uncocked popcorn litters the floor, falling like the new snow at the park that are my first memories of my entire life.

"Will you both shut up!" I scream, I can tell I have let my anger get the better of me. "Just tell me the truth... Why? Why are you fighting over me?" 

I have calmed myself down over the sentence, and I can feel the tears beginning to roll down my cheeks.

"Why do you think Alys..." I can hear Hayden's smooth voice bouncing of the kitchen walls,

"We love you..." Aiden finishes Hayden's sentence and I tear up even more. Hayden rushes to hug me only to be thrown on to the floor by Aiden who is back up and stroking my hair in a split second.

With my vision blocked, I can only hear the doors slamming as Hayden storms out of his own house.

I stand up and rush off after him, rushing out of the front door after Hayden and not even realising how just that small motion has hurt Aiden.
