Chapter 37: More Drama than Pretty Little Liars

Carter's P.O.V:

      "I love you. More than a friend - like...like I really love you. A lot. So much, that it hurts every time I think about you. You're literally everything to me, Cart. You're my support system. You're always there for me - like tonight. I'm sorry I treated you poorly before, but I just....I need to tell you. I know it might be too late to say this, but Carter Ly - I am hopelessly, amazingly, and crazy in love with you."

      It was like I could hear the words that Aiden spoke, but I couldn't interpret them. Well, I couldn't anyway because Aiden's lips were on mine faster than I could even think.

      It was about five seconds into the kiss that I realized what was actually happening. Aiden was kissing me!

      "What are you doing?" I asked, quickly jerking away from him.

      "I kissed you because I love you," he replied easily.

      What the fuck?!

      "You're kidding, right?" I asked.

      Aiden looked hurt at my question and shook his head.

      "Why would I lie about something so serious? And kiss you for that matter?" He asked.

      The only things running in my mind?

      Oh shit.

      "Where is this coming from? And - and why are you telling me this now?!" I asked, feeling myself grow not only confused, but irritated as well.

      "I've realized that I've loved you for a long time. And it wasn't until a awhile ago that I felt truly, and deeply in love with you. If you think this is a joke.....it's not. Carter, I'm sorry that I hurt you in the past. But I need you to know that I am actually in love with you!" He replied, grabbing a hold of one of my hands.

      I pulled my hands away and let out an angry sigh.

      "I'm sorry, Aiden. I need some time to think," I replied.

      "Then take your time. I'm done being selfish. I am going to wait for you as long as it takes. If you don't feel the same......I'll understand. Just - just put me down easy, okay? Bye," he said, kissing my forehead and retreating down my driveway.

      It was a good five minutes that I stood in my driveway, staring at Aiden's house, literally shell-shocked.

      "What just happened?" I asked.

      Of course, there was no reply and it seemed as if I was now going crazy. Which was probably the case since I just heard Aiden admit his undying love for me.

      Jeez, I had more drama in my life than an episode of Pretty Little Liars.

      I walked inside my house and made a beeline for my bedroom. How was I supposed to take this news? And how was I going to make a decision? Aiden said he'd wait for me.....but what if I didn't want to be with him? Would he still wait?

      I jumped at the sound of my phone ringing and checked the caller I.D. Thankfully, it was Katie. I wasn't sure if I could take any more of Aiden at the moment.
