So I'm switching it up a bit and decided to make this chapter from Aaron's POV. It's being told on the day of the date A.K.A the day he "stood up" Alexis.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The day of the date
It was 1 p.m. already and I still hadn't eaten breakfast.
"Shit" I said as I jammed my foot into the kitchen counter.
I grabbed my foot with one hand and held myself up with the other. I sweared some more and then grabbed a bowl, cereal, and milk. I shoved the food in my mouth and ran to my room to get dressed.
---------------
Before heading out the door, I stopped in the middle of the hall.
"Mom, I'm heading out. I'll be back tonight, don't wait up!" I shouted.
"Okay sweetie be careful!" called back my mom.
I slammed the door and slipped on my jacket. Today was my date with Alexis so, frankly, I was a bit nervous. I swung by a restaurant and made a reservation. I dropped by the florist, picked up some flowers, and by then it was already five in the afternoon. As I was heading home, I saw a van crawling down the street about an inch from me. I picked up my pace, thinking that they had mistaken me for someone else, but the van suddenly screeched to a stop. I started to run, but there were two men in black coats and dark shades in front of me. I took a few steps back and leaned against the wall. I slowly inched my hand towards my front pocket but before I could get my cellphone out, a bag was being put over my head and I was being pushed in the trunk of the van.
