The Anonymous Legion

Chapter 16

Aaron's POV

I wake up to sunlight hitting my eyes, the subtle brightness lighting up the whole room. I stifle a yawn, leaning my head back as I stretch an arm. Beside me, I feel a sleeping figure clinging to my other arm, with a head on my shoulder.

I admire the girl beside me, taking in all of her features, holding back against the urge to play with her hair.

I pull my phone out of my pocket, and take a cute picture of y/n. I debate whether or not to get up now, and decide to stay there a few more minutes to not wake y/n yet.

I wonder about the plans for today, where to go and what to do. I'll probably get breakfast ready for the both of us, prepare some coffee and warm up yesterday's leftovers, since I don't like throwing out food.

I finally get up, making sure not to wake y/n, and head on over to the washroom.

Your POV

I open my eyes, the smell of coffee filling my nose. I stretch my arms and legs out, enjoying the fact that I wasn't woken by the sound of banging pots, and that I got to sleep in. As I'm stretching, I start rolling off the couch and land onto the ground with a thud.

I hear someone laughing as I lay on the ground, embarrassment rushing through me.

"Nice one," I open my eyes my eyes to see an upside down Aaron looking at me, his usual smile on his face as he is holding a mug, drying it with a tea towel.

"Mmm, did you make coffee?" I ask, desperately trying to draw away the embarrassment. I see him nod as I stand upright and follow him into the kitchen. I see my cup sitting on the table and I excuse myself to go to the washroom to wash up.

A few minutes later

Walking out of the bathroom, I see Aaron's phone on a table, laying upright. I walk past it, but my attention is captured as he receives a notification. I slightly turn to see what captured my attention, and my cheeks start turning red.

His lock screen is a picture of me sleeping, and the sunlight is doing me favours.

I feel a smile creep upon my face as I turn back and head to the the table with my coffee, taking a seat and wondering where Aaron went.

As I reach to my cup, I notice a plate next to it with yesterday's leftovers, so I quickly eat up the food and finish my coffee. I finish everything just when Aaron walks in through the door.

"Oh! You're finished already?" He asks as I shrug in response. "Alright, so today is another day for your training with Grayson, so we should head out now to the cafeteria since he always eats there around this time." I get up, nodding.

I walk over to Aaron's side and we step out into the hallway. He locks his room and we begin walking toward the cafeteria.

We walk in a comfortable silence, both of us in our own thoughts. I suddenly feel a hand gently latching onto mine, and as I don't pull away, I feel Aaron's fingers intertwining with mine. I slight blush forms on my face as I look at our interlocked hands, my hand seemingly lost in his large one.

"What the fuck?" We hear behind us. I turn my head to see a disgusted Grayson standing behind us, eyes locked onto our hands.

"So you two are dating now?" Grayson says. His eyebrows are furrowed as he waits for a response.

"We're just holding hands." Aaron starts. "And besides, what's it to you?"

"Oh, so you just let her sleep in your room without even telling me." Grayson says in dismay.

"You literally left her at the cafeteria, not bothering to get her any food like you said you were, and left with your little sex-buddy." Aaron fires back, not loosening his grip on me.

"Since you two are so close now, you train her yourself." Grayson replies, turning his back to us as he begins walking away.

Aaron lets go of my hand as he steps forward, about to follow Grayson. "Stop! You will be training y/n, and that's an order. If you go against me, there will be consequences," Aaron takes a slight pause. "Like last time." He finishes.

I've never heard Aaron like this, he always seems so kind and soft, I would've never expected to hear him like this.

Grayson hesitates a moment, before letting out a loud sigh, and walks back to us in defeat.

"Let's go." Grayson grabs my arm, pulling me with him towards the direction of the field we were at yesterday. I pull my arm out of his grip, giving him a hard look as he gives out another sigh. We walk off, Aaron watching us as we leave.

"You will listen to everything I tell you to do, whether you like it or not." Grayson whispers in my ear as we're out of earshot.
