[Scarlet's POV]
When I opened the door I saw Aiden standing there in all his might as usual. I noticed Aiden's eyes look me up and down. Was he checking me out? No surely not. I invited him in which made him snap out of his thoughts. He plastered a bright smile on his face in which I returned.
"So, where are Bass and Mark?" Bass is my nickname for Sebastian.
"They said they were on their way. What about Cass?"
"She texted me saying she was going to be late," I told him and he turned around observing everything in the apartment.
"This is a nice place." He commented turning back around to face me and sitting on the couch
"Thanks," I said sitting on the couch beside him.
"You know... now that you have seen my place. You got to show me yours." I said turning to face him. He smirked and faced me as well.
"I guess that will be at the next get together."
"I can't wait," I said, both of us smiling at each other like we had a secret plan. Then the doorbell rang and I broke my gaze from him.
"Come in! The door is unlocked!" I shouted
The door then swung open and in came the rest of them.
"Let's get this party started!" Cassy shouted and we all started laughing.
Bass brought beers and we all had a few. All night we talked, laughed and watched movies.
"Wait seriously you were born Friday the 13th?" Cassy shouted.
"Yep," I said popping the "p"
"That's freaky as hell!" Bass yelled, and we all started laughing at him.
We Kept talking about random things throughout the night. It was really fun. Sometimes I don't even think about my old friends or the fact that I'm lying to them about who I am.
1 month later
A month has passed since the night at my apartment and my birthday is tomorrow. I have kind of been dreading it. I mean yeah I am looking forward to turning 18, but Sabrina and I had a plan of leaving together. I hope she remembers that plan and meets me up here. I got out of bed and put on a long white shirt, skinny jeans, black combat boots, and of course my leather jacket. I grabbed my bag and left the apartment. When I got out of the apartment building I noticed a black SUV across the street. It gave me a funny feeling, but I decided I was going to ignore it. I started walking down the street to school, and a few minutes later I saw it again. I kept walking and gradually started speeding up. Eventually, I was full-on running, and before I knew it I was at the front of the school. I saw my friends and went their way. When I got to them I turned around and the SUV was gone.
"Scarlet are you okay?" Aiden asked with concern in his voice. I looked back at my friends and they were all looking at me with concern and worry in their eyes. I smiled a reassuring smile at them. I don't need to worry about them.
"Yeah I'm fine, so what are we talking about?" I asked, trying to convince them and change the subject. Aiden seemed a little hesitant about what I had said, he seemed like he knew I was lying. So I smiled once again at him to see if that will get him to believe me. He seemed like he took the bait and joined the rest of us in the conversation.
[Aiden's POV]
A few minutes before Scarlet showed up
"So what are we going to do tomorrow for Scarlet's birthday," Cassie asked.
