Chapter 7.

Aria's POV:

Weeks had past.
Everyday since the day I first got a gift in a black box, I have gotten another one each day. What was weirder was the fact that Ashton and I were getting along. Lilia is now dating Oliver and are the most adorable couple.
The weirdest part was that we were getting along so well we were going on a holiday together. Of course I wouldn't go without my besties so Lilia, Keira and I are accompanying Ashton and his friends to a cabin he has in the woods that somehow has space for like 8 people.
"Aria, are you ready. We have to go and pick up my sister and Oliver?" Ashton called out.
"Nearly, I am just grabbing my shoes." I quickly packed my shoes and ran out to the kitchen where Ashton was waiting. We went outside to get in his car.
"What happened to your sports car?" I asked.
"Oh it's in the car park but we are using Luke's pick up truck because it has more room and is more comfortable to spend 2-3 hours in," he explained.
"Oh okay." I put my luggage in the back and got in the truck to pick Lilia and Oliver up from Oliver's place.
"So why did you invite me?" I asked thinking about how random it was for us to go on a trip together.
"Because I didn't want to spend two whole days with my friends because they can get super annoying. Plus with you coming it means Lilia is coming. We didn't spend much time together growing up because we were all at different schools for some random crazy reason. So we never saw each other that much to actually be like siblings. That's why we decided to go to the same university," he explained.
"Oh, that's nice that you decided to go to the same uni so you can be more sibling-ish like." I smiled at him as he drove.
We pulled up to Oliver's apartment. Lilia and Oliver were waiting outside with their luggage.
"Hey Aria, Ashton," Lilia and Oliver greeted as they entered the vehicle.
"Yo," I greeted back.
"Are we picking the others up?" Lilia asked.
"No, they are meeting us there," Ashton answered.
"So how was your night?" I asked with a hint of a 'I-know-what-you-did-last-night' in my voice.
Lilia blushed and Oliver smirked.
"Last night was amazing, Lilia is really good at.."
Ashton cut in before he went any further with his sentence. "Nope, no, definitely not. I don't want to hear anything from last night or future nights." Ashton shuddered and you could hear the clear grossed out tone in his voice.
Lilia just blushed and hid her face in Oliver's chest.
"Oliver, seriously, share that with the whole world why don't you." Lilia mumbled into his hard chest.
"Sorry babe."
"Get out of my car, Oliver," Ashton instructed.
"What the fuck bro, why?"
"Don't babe my sister or I'll slit your throat, got it?" Ashton smiles deviously while Oliver squirmed in his seat.
"Got it."
"Ashton, stop being a dickass, he's my boyfriend, he can call me whatever he wants."
"Not in my car or near me, or the guy dies." Ashton smiled as we drove the rest of the way in silence.
When we arrived we jumped out of the car and grabbed our belongings. Keira, Jack, Tyler and Luke were there waiting for us.
"Yo Ashton, can you show us where we are all sleeping?" Tyler asked.
"Sure. But don't get angry at me I didn't choose sleeping arrangements, Lilia did—" before Ashton could finish and say which rooms and with who we would be staying with Lilia cut in.
"— Oliver and I, Aria and Ashton, Keira and Tyler, Jack and Luke. I'll give you a number and depending on the number it will depend on your room. I'll take room 1, Aria room 2, Keira room 3 and Jack room 4. Go find your rooms, put your stuff there and then we'll meet in the kitchen for lunch." We all went off our separate ways.
"Why do you and I have to share a bed?" I moaned.
"Afraid of what you might do?" Ashton asked innocently.
"Haha very funny, we all know I wouldn't do anything. It's you that would though." I walked into our room and immediately walked out to try and find Lilia but walked into a solid chest. Ow.
"You didn't even put your bags away why are you leaving?" he asked.
"There is only one bed." I walked out and avoided him this time and found Lilia.
"Lilia, what the fuck! I have to share a bed with him. You did this on purpose you evil cow!" I yelled at her.
"Relax, it's only for a few nights and it's only my brother he isn't really that bad. Plus it will give you an extra challenge for not having sex with him." She replied.
"Lilia, you know I have decided not to do the whole make him fall for me then break his heart right. It's fine so just let me swap rooms and everything will be all Gucci." I hoped.
Truth is, I actually liked him. Was he gonna find out? No, no he wasn't. Did it matter? Nope, not one bit. Is that why I'm not going to make him fall for me then break his heart? Abso-fucking-lutely.
"No swapping, deal with the potato peel. Also I didn't know that but now I do. The thing for the sex is still on though since you promised me a car if you failed and I can't give up that opportunity," she laughed evilly and pushed me back in the direction of my room.

"Come on Aria, it's not that bad. It's only a few nights. And if you sleep naked that's cool with me too." Ashton reassured me.
"Of course if I'm naked it's completely fine. You know what, it's fine, I'll take the floor. You can have the bed."
"Aria, don't be a shit head. You are taking the bed, you'll hurt your back if you sleep on the floor." Ashton said.
"Okay, it's just a few nights. Everything will be fine." I unpacked my stuff and put them away in the closet and went into the kitchen ready for dinner since I was starving.
I walked out into the kitchen and took a seat on one of the breakfast bar stools.
"So who's making dinner because it sure as hell ain't me?" I asked.
"But Aria, you are the best cook here! Please, you have to cook." Lilia pleased.
"Ughhh really? I'm sure if someone else cooks it will be fine."
"Nope your cooking."
"I agree with my sister, you should cook, A. You are amazing at feeding people." he gave me a wink which really meant he was talking about a different type of feeding. "B. No one else knows how to cook."
"Ughhh, Ashton. You know how to cook. You made the best spaghetti ever just a few days ago. If none of you can cook that's seriously dumb. How are you living by yourself if you can't cook?"
"We order takeaways, duh!" Lilia replied.
"Of course." I roll my eyes.
"How about, if you cook I'll help while the others do goodness knows what?" Ashton suggested.
I agreed to cooking with Ashton while the others went for a walk.

"Ashton, you're doing it wrong! You put the tomato in after the meatballs not the other way round!" I grabbed the tomatoes from Ashton before he could put them in.
"Oh really? I thought you said I made the best spaghetti ever. In which case I know what I'm doing." He inched closer to me and trapped me against the table.
My breath hitched as his lips were only a few inches from mine. "Ashton, w-what are you doing?"
He looked at my eyes before his gaze moved to my lips. He put his arms on each side of me and lifted me up onto the table behind me. Tilting his head he softly placed his lips on mine.
It was probably time that I actually accepted I liked him. But did I want to admit to myself that I liked him? No, I didn't want to admit it to myself, however that didn't mean I couldn't enjoy what was happening.
I kissed him back as he sucked on my bottom lip. My lips parted as his tongue found mine. If it was even possible he pulled me closer to him. My hands found their way to the back of his head. I threaded my fingers through his soft hair. Suddenly he picked me up which made me giggle, he walked over to the other side of the room and pushed me up against the wall. His hands roamed my stomach as mine pushed his shirt up and off him. I trailed my fingertips over his abs making him let out a small groan. Taking this as a good sign I placed my arms on his back and clawed at his back. He smirked against my lips and drew his hands up my shirt. He gently rubbed circles against the skin below my breasts. He drew away from my lips for us to catch our breaths before going at each other like we'd never been kissed before. His hand slipped under my bra and played with my breasts causing me to moan. Just as we were going to go further the door opened and the stove started beeping. We jumped away from each other and quickly righted ourselves before going into the kitchen to make sure dinner was okay.
"Hey guys, we weren't expecting you back so soon." I said trying to ease the tension that would soon be between Ashton and I.
"Yeah, well we got bored and we were hungry so we came back hoping dinner would be ready.. which it isn't. Also Aria, your hair is a mess and you look super flushed. Oh and where is Ashton, I thought he was helping you cook?" Lilia replied.
"Yeah Ashton and I had an argument about what goes in first, you know how I am when I'm annoyed. I run my hands through my ha..."
"I'm here. I was just putting my shirt back on." Ashton came out of the lounge where we nearly had sex.
Oh god!
I nearly had sex with Ashton.
I need to get it together before I lose that bet.
Plus there is still the mystery of who is sending me gifts.
Oh that's reminds me. I haven't gotten one today.
"Aria! You listening?"
"Ughh...yeah?"
"Right, anyways. What we were saying is that you and Ashton finish making dinner and the rest of us will be in the lounge." Kiera repeated.
"No! I mean uh, I. Uh, feel kinda sick. Can one of you take over for me. Thanks!" I rushed off to my room and decided to have a shower.
Maybe I could wash away my likeness of my roommate. The player. Who is no better than me. My best friends brother. Ashton Maddox.
