IN BETWEEN

~t h i r t y o n e~

And when I look up to the night sky
I'll find the brightest star
And know you're looking at me too.

|Chapter thirty one|

It's almost been a week since that roof top thing happened. Since then time just flew by. And these past few days me and Cedric have been spending so much time together and it's high time now that we kiss.

Yeah, the actual legit kiss.

I don't know if I'm ready for that yet but it's actually been high time. I still can't wrap my mind around the fact that me and Cedric were just friends and now here we are. I have always had a crush on him but obviously I never had the balls to just go and ask him, I mean physically I don't have but metaphorically I meant.

At the moment I was in the living room sitting on the couch, well more like I was sprawled over it watching tv, not really watching it but just surfing through the channels. I didn't have anything else as I was apparently alone and I was bored right now.

Dad's been quite busy these days. He's been working in his company very diligently. He is a hard working man, no doubt. And Chase, I don't know why dad's allowing him but he's been staying off at his friend's house a lot these days. And today as well he was at some of his friend's house. I mean, he's only fourteen I don't think he should be out of house this much in such a teenage stage.

Isn't this the stage where the child kind of gets spoilt or something?

But one thing I know for sure is that Chase isn't like that.

I mean you know—

My inner thoughts suddenly came to a halt as I heard a motorcycle's roaring voice outside. This most definitely must be Aaron. I glanced at the clock and it was past 1am.

You might be thinking what I'm doing at such late time? Well, tomorrow's Saturday so it's not a big deal if I wake up late tomorrow and also I couldn't really sleep because even though there are lights and everything, still I was kind of scared of being alone. Just a thought of what can happen to me makes me shit in my pants, well not in my pants but shorts which I'm wearing right now.

I haven't heard from Austin these days. Not that I want to, infact I'm glad about it. I don't know what he's up to. 'Cause he's Austin Stevens for some sake, he can't stay still and not trouble me. And like he said that he's going to make my living life hell, so let's see what he's up to.

Isn't there a saying something like 'silent killers are.......' oh I don't know.

I heard the door open, not mine, my neighbours door. And then I heard some kind of shouting, which wasn't low at all. They were shouting so loudly. I couldn't help but stare out of the window and I saw that Walker's main door was slightly open paving the way for timid light.

And then everything just happened like a blink of an eye. Aaron was pushed out of the door, I couldn't make out that who pushed him but whosesoever was that man was fully dressed in a suit. I also heard a female voice pleading not to push Aaron out, which I assumed was Helen.

Okay, literally what's going on?

And then Aaron being Aaron, he angrily strode towards the motercycle and rode it and went somewhere.

Frowning, I sat back at my place wondering where that guy would go.
Sometimes I feel Aaron is quite mysterious and I mean really mysterious. He is, actually. He had that kind of aura around him.

My phone beeped beside me and I looked at it and it was a call from my boyfriend.

Is it wierd that after almost two weeks of dating I still find it quite awkward or strange at the sound of Cedric being my boyfriend?
