One Night

Chapter 1

"Aaron, I have to tell you this. I'm in love with you and I- "

CAUSE IT'S ONE, ONE, ONE FOR THE MONEY.

IT'S TWO CAUSE TWO IS FOR THE SHOW.

IT'S THREE, ARE YOU FREAKING READY?

I woke up in haste, "What the heck?" I turned towards my bedside table and saw that my alarm sound had been changed to a metal song from the soft one. Now I wonder who would do that?

Wait. Let me think. Maybe, IT'S THAT UGLY MONKEY LAUGHING AT ME FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROOM.

"Aaaaaaarrrronnnnnn," I screamed, getting out of my bed and running towards him, "I'm gonna kill you."

He started laughing harder as if my threat was a joke. He tried to form a coherent sentence as he kept laughing, "You...yo- you're ... gonna.. ki-kill.. me? You... ca-can't... even.... kill.. a-a.. bloody.. ant," He said between breaths.

My face turned red. He was again teasing me about that one time when I was trying to kill an ant but I kept missing because it was moving around so fast and being the idiot I was, I was trying to kill it by poking it with a toothpick.

"You sound like a dying walrus. Shut up, you rainbow berry marshmallow eating fudgy cupcake."

The way he was laughing now made me think if he might need CPR. He had reached that stage in laughing where you curl up into a ball and you're sure you're gonna die. 

His face was completely red and he was clutching his stomach and he wasn't even making a sound now. 

"Mom! Dad! I think Aaron is about to die! Can you please come up and see him for the last time?!"

"Sure sweetie!" they replied back in unision. Though they never really came up. 

When Aaron's laughter didn't stop, I just stomped and whipped my head around. Then, I entered the bathroom and closed the door with a bang! 

After taking a shower and doing my business, I came out and Aaron was nowhere to be found. Ah that brat! He's probably downstairs hogging down all my breakfast.

I think now would be a good time to give you an introduction.

I'm Kiara. And that person was Aaron. Yes, we are best friends. Yes, our parents were best friends too. Okay, yes, we live next to each other. Fine! He's popular and I'm a nerd. Stop guessing!

And yeah, I'm in love with him. Screw my life. 

My life is just like a book. But why can't I have the same ending? Why can't he be in love with me too?

Because I'm what you would call- for the lack of a better term- best friend zoned. 

Oh yeah and he also has a girlfriend who hates me. Scratch that, almost all the girls hate me. Why? Because the most hottest guy of the school spends majority of his time with me. I'm the privileged one who gets to check out his body from my window when he comes out after a bath.

But I'd happily trade places with any girl of the school because I'm not perfect enough to be with him.

Now before I dive into the tragedy which is my life, I think I should go down and have some breakfast (If that hungry jelly bear saved me some, that is).

After a light breakfast and numerous punchs later (from my side), Aaron and I were ready to go. We had to pick up his girlfriend, Delilah on the way. So of course, I made myself comfortable in the backseat with my new book, Deception Point and Aaron took the route to Del's house. 

Five minutes later, we were standing outside with a very disturbing scene playing in front of us. She was kissing this big guy and they were practically eating each other's faces off. I wish I could just close Aaron's eyes and make him forget all this. 

I turned to look at him. He was frozen in his spot. When I saw his eyes, glistening with tears, my heart broke. His choked voice cracked a bit as he called out her name.

"Delilah?"
