(( I apologize for making you guys wait so long >.>
I've been mighty busy. Oh well, here it is: CHAPTER 7!
Oh and it reached over 1,000 views. I'm so happy. I thank all my fans so far. Thanks for the support. :] ))
Chapter 7:
They both stopped at the door.
Nobody moved for what seemed like a long time...
Oh boy.....
I had a LOT of explaining to do.
After what seemed like two minutes, I cleared my throat and managed to pull out from underneath Ethan; but before I could say anything, Xavier spoke.
"What the hell are you guys doing on the floor? I expected you guys to bond, not fuck all over the awesome rug in our living room!" He said as he winced.
Oh god.
"No. It's not what it looks like... uh- We were...." My mind reeled. What was I suppose to say? I mean, were WEREN'T doing anything wrong.. "- Ethan was trying to teach me some karate moves, but I suck...sooo.....I tripped him by mistake and we both fell." I rushed.
Good one !
My voice was squeakier than ever though.
Not to mention that I had stuttered AND rushed through that whole sentence...
Well that made it obvious that we were up to something.
But the big question was: Did Aiden believe it?
"Ethan?" Aiden spoke out loud thoughtfully.
"Yes? " He answered blankly.
"Nothing, never mind."
Do I feel tension ? Ohhh, I bet I do !
'Why are you happy about this, Bethany?'
'Cause' if Aiden gets jealous of Ethan, then we're both in a good position.'
'What? You don't even know what you're saying....'
'Uh huh, suuuuure !'
Ugh.
The boys stood uncomfortably in silence for a while and I sighed.
"What are you doing here AIDEN?" I asked, breaking the awkward silence. I shot Ethan a look, and he held back a smile.
"We were going to watch the game..." Aiden responded slowly. "Hey, where's Clarissa?" He then added.
"None of you- She's upstairs. She says she doesn't want to be bothered. I suggest you don't...considering she's in a bad mood..." I trailed.
"Okie-dokie." He said with a small smile.
Damn. I sometimes hate it when people smile about inside-jokes that I know I will never understand.
~~~
A couple hours later, Aiden was leaving.
He stood at the doorway and turned around.
"Hey, Beth, can you tell Clarissa I said I'm sorry for today??"
"Sure. Whatever."
"Thanks."
"De nada."
I waved.
He turned around and walked outside. Not wanting to look at him anymore than I had to, I shut the door.
