Has No Time..

Chapter 22

Lizbeth's POV

Class was finally over. I stood up front chair pushing it in as I swung my backpack over my shoulders. I began to walk out of class right when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I flinched at the touch of it when I realized it was just Aaron. I sighed of relief but I also remembered what he has done.

"..hey" he said

"Hi" I said back. I stood there, we both stood there. I began to turn around to walk away when Aaron got a hold of my hand, holding me back from walking off as I turned to face him.

"..I know you're mad for what I did and..I'm sorry I-I got so angry at the fact that he had you hostage after Fernando explained everything I just had this rage an-

"I forgive you" I said. I surprised myself that I forgave him so quick. I always felt guilt when I forgave someone when sometimes they didn't deserve it just yet. But in this case it was so quick.

"Y-you do?" He asked sounding almost surprised

"Yeah..I do" I said as I smiled.

"Great..I was gonna invite you.." he said as he began to dig through his bag pulling two tickets

"Tickets? Where?" I asked looking up at him as I took the tickets form his hand analyzing them

"It's a drag race...Gonzalo mentioned you hate drag races" Aaron said

"I do but..I'll go" I said as I smiled at him handing the tickets back as he took them back putting them back in his pocket

"great" he said kissing my forehead I hugged him back. He pulled away smiling at me "I'll see you later" he said before walking past me

"Yeah" I said back. I smiled back, I felt hot. I knew I was blushing. I knew I liked Aaron. That was either going to have a good impact on me or a bad one and I wasn't sure which one I wanted to see first.

I continued down the hallway when I came across paths with Fernando. He rushed over to me but I kept walking until he got ahold of my hand. I stopped as I sighed. I wasn't annoyed, no but I just didn't feel like talking to him after he planned everything.

"Fer-

"Lizbeth hear me out"

"No! you always have to get into my life and everything that happens! I had that shit handled" I shouted

"Did you really? Because everything that has happened in your life, you've never handled and if you did, you act like it never happened or you just walk away" Fernando angrily said close to my face. He was right, he was right and I didn't want to hear it.

"I didn't walk away and act like me getting raped never happened" I said. He looked at me for a minute

"Yes you did, you never went to get help, you just locked yourself in your room for days and then eventually came out like nothing happened" he said. He knew he was right. "I love you so much Beth and I worry for you sometimes and honestly I'm just trying to keep you safe and not break" he said as he grabbed my hand

"I-

"I know you and eventually you get to a point where you break and you know it's never good" he said. I didn't say anything but jumped into his arms as I hugged him. He hugged back so tight

"I can't stay mad at you" I said as we both laughed

"Great..are you going to the drag race?" He asked

"Yes..Aaron invited me and got me a ticket" I said smiling shyly at him. His expression changed immediately and I knew he wasn't okay with It

"You forgave him already? He punched the shit out of somebody!!" he exclaimed
