I was dead asleep, thought I had already reached heaven, when a series of texts disrupted it.
I had already assumed it was Mark and today I was going to scold him for ruining my sound sleep.
To my astonishment, it was Aiden.
I looked up at the time, thinking was it morning already? How many days it has been? Have I been dreaming about my mom here?
3:20am
Aiden texting me at 3:20???
Hey, you sleeping?
Are you dead?
Wake your ass up!
'You successfully woke me up, Aiden! What is it? Are you a bat? Why are you still awake?' I replied.
'Open the back door. I am standing there.'
'WHAT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?'
'No! Open up and see for yourself. Come fast. Its cold. I am freezing.'
Dammit! It was probably snowing outside. What is he doing outside?
I immediately rushed out opened the door softly so as to not wake up my mom.
There he was, standing in the cold.
"Omg! Get in. You'll catch cold, you silly!" I exclaimed.
I took his cold hands and brought him inside the house.
"Here, take these keys. I forgot to lock my room. It still has my stuff and my pictures hanging in there. If your mom took a look by chance, she'd know."
"What?"I was about to say more when he interrupted me,
"And take my car keys. Drive your mum around. I wouldn't like to see you showing your mum around travelling in public vehicles or cabs.
And I would hear nothing, so don't try.
Plus, take these. I brought it for your mum." He said handing me over a package.
Was he drunk or something?
"Are you crazy!?
You came at 3am, were standing in cold, got wet from snowfall and then you say you are here to hand me over your room and car keys and something for my mum!?"
"Okay, alright. I haven't lost my mind.
The actual reason is,
I just wanted to see you."
After a pause he added
"Like how you were holding up here without me. Did you make a mess our of my home and stuff."
Flushing. My cheeks are flushing!
No need to cover up.
Its clear as crystal.
"You came to see me?"I asked as adorably as possible.
"Stella! Are you awake?"
Dammit! My mum woke up.
What do I do? What do I do?
She was opening the door when Aiden immediately took my hand and ran towards my room which was pretty close to where we were and made me lie down in my bed, put his hand on my mouth,indicating not to make a sound and closing my eyes.
He put my blanket on top of me and himself ran to hide behind the almirah. There was ample place for him to hide.
My mum opened my door and found me sleeping.
"Oh I must be imagining things. I should head back." she muttered to herself and closed the door behind her back.
Aiden came out of his spot and jumped over me.
AIDEN SMITH WAS ON TOP OF ME.
"Yes, I came to see you!" he whispered looking straight into my eyes. He was so close to me that my heart was racing.
"Aw you're so red right now, Stella" Aiden teased me.
"Shut up.." And he did the reverse by smashing his lips onto mine.
I was losing my mind.
Damn. Its like I wanted this to happen. I was waiting for this since so long.
I didn't want this to stop, ever!
I moved my hands around his soft hair which were slightly wet and his perfect face.
I have realised something. I have feelings for him and I can't escape this fact.
But I don't know anything about him.
I don't know if I am just one of his other girls. Just a girl he would kiss and forget.
At this thought I immediately stopped Aiden.
He looked confused but understood.
He maintained his distance then apologised to me.
"I am sorry. I shouldn't kiss you without your permission."said Aiden.
No I liked it.
Say something I wanna hear.
Please say you kissed me because you like me.
He said nothing.
Apparently, iy was my turn to answer.
"If you give me the keys, how would you travel places and head back home?I can't take your car!" I changed the topic.
"Ah, don't worry about that. I have arrangements. I'll manage.I insist please don't fight with me over this."
"Where are you staying?"
"A friend's place, I'll borrow his car."
"okay, let me drop you off then."
"No. I have no problem. He'll pick me up"
"Come on, Aiden. I can be bossy too." and I took his hand and we rushed towards his car.
I hope mom doesn't wake up and check on me.
