Forevermore

chapter 3: "I took 5 years of Karate...."

After getting home I realized Dad still wasn't home. I threw my backpack in the corner and walked into the kitchen. I opened the fridge to see that there was practically nothing to eat

I was about to decide on making some Mac and cheese when the doorbell rang.

I sighed while closing the fridge and walking to the front door. I opened the door expecting anyone to be standing there but Aiden.

He'd been looking off to the side and it seemed like he was just as surprised to see me as I was. His look of shock was replaced by a smirk. "Well look what I've found"

I leaned against the door frame crossing my arms. "What do you want Aiden?"

"I just wanted to welcome my new neighbour." He said innocently while holding out a bundt cake and flowers that I hadn't noticed he'd been holding.

"Bundt cake and flowers?" I asked in a smoking tone.

"My mom's a sweet heart." He said shrugging and handing both the bundt and flowers to me. He used the opportunity of me not being able to use my hands to walk into my house ignoring my glare.

I kicked the door shut with my foot and followed him into the kitchen and set everything down on the counter.

"So the bad boy lives in the rich part of town?" I said over my shoulder as I dug around for a vase for the flowers. I filled the vade with water and put the flowers in it before Aiden spoke up.

"Ya there's nothing wrong with that!" He said defensively.

"Do people say things like that to you a lot?" I asked curiously while grabbing two plates and two forks.

"Whenever someone finds out where I live." He nodded.

I searched around for a serving spoon once I found it I stood up to see that Aiden had been looking at my ass." OK two questions." I said fetching a piece of cake unto my plate. "One, do you want cake?"

"Sure." He said while nodding.

"OK and two," I said filling the second plate with cake. "Were you just staring at my ass?"

His immediate grin let me know that he was. "I was admiring your ass." He said pulling a plate closer so he could eat the cake.

"Well thanks." I said sarcastically. We sat in silence for what seemed like an hour before the phone rang making me jump. I got up and answered the cordless Phone that my dad must have unpacked sometime this morning. "Hello?" I said leaning against the counter staring at Aiden who just stood up.

"Hey honey." My dad's voice said from the other line.

"Hi dad." I said smiling. He was probably going to ask if I'd made dinner yet or not.

"I have some bad news."

"Oh?" I said side stepping Aiden who had walked closer and reacher for me. I walked around the counter to the other side. "What is it?"

"I have to go on a business trio for at least a week and  a half?"

Aiden had snuck up behind me and grabbed my ass. I squeaked in surprise and whipped around to smack his shoulder while glaring.

"Thea, are you alright?" My dad asked concerned.

"Ya, I'm fine." I said while clearing my throat "um," I said while tucking my hair behind my ear. "What do you mean?"

"I have to go to Spain for at least a week and half."

"Dad, you don't even speak Spanish." I said crossing my arms.

"Yes, but Spain is one of the biggest gaming places in the world." He pointed out.

I sighed. "What am I supposed to do? I mean we just moved in Dad."

"You're old enough to stay home by yourself for a little while, and I out more money on your card for food.

"OK Dad." I said just finished hearing him talk. "I guess I'll see you soon."

"Bye Thea. I love you."

"Love you too, Dad." I mumbled before hanging up.

I turned to see Aiden grinning. "So Barbie has to stay all alone?" I scoffed before putting my plate in the sink and taking out a Dr. Pepper from the fridge. "Does she need some company?" He asked holding Hus arms out towards me as if I'd let him hold me.

"No she does not." I said while laughing.

"Oh you won't let me stay with you?" He said with a mock pout on his face.

'Um, heck no." I said still laughing.

"Why not?" He asked crossing his arms and walking closer to me.

"Because...." I said trailing off unable to think if a reason.

"You're scared." He said simply.

"Of what?" I said crossing my arms now.

"Temptation." He said stepping even closer and smirking even more.

"Temptation of you?" I laughed. "That's a nice joke but I will never even be a little tempted by you."

"Then let me stay here while your dad's away."

"Why? Are you......." I leaned closer to his face almost brushing our lips together. "Tempted?"

"You have no idea." He said leaning closer. I put a hand on his chest stopping him.

"Tell you what." I said walking to the back door. "If you can do three back flips in a row then you can stay here while my dad's away." I didn't even wait to see if he'd replied before I walked out the back door.

He followed me still grinning. "Do we have a deal?" He asked putting his hand out to shake mine.

"Yes we do." I said shaking Hus hand. There was no way he can do this.

"And if I lose?" He asked.

"Then you don't talk to me for the rest of the year." I smirked.

"Fine." He said stepping away.

"Oh, and please don't break your neck. I don't want to be a part of your death." I said before he possibly hurts himself. He better be prepared to never talk to me again this school year.

He sighed before throwing himself backwards and completely one, two, three perfect back flips.

I felt my jaw hit the ground in astonishment. "How did you.....but you just.... . you're.......what the......how?" I sputtered out.

"I took five years of karate when I was younger." He said with his signature smirk plastered on his face. "So I'm going to run over to my house and get some of my stuff and then I'll be right back."

Damn him.
