When I opened my eyes I was in my bed.
My clothes were changed.
Huh? One second?
Who changed my clothes?
Then came Aiden with a bowl of hot soup.
"you woke up? Have this. I made it for you."
"Aiden did you change my clothes? "
"Oh yeah" he shrugged as if it was no big deal.
"You saw me naked!? " I shrieked
"Yyyuuupp! Aandd damn you have a great figure. You looked so hot I didn't even want to put on any cloth on you.
And your skin is so soft I wanted to keep touching it" he said with a smirk.
"AIDEN!!" I yelled and threw pillows on him.
"Calm down,Satan! I am just kidding.
Tracey changed your clothes.I asked her to.They were torn and dirty.
I didn't see anything. Don't worry. " he laughed.
I ate the delicious soup he made we were laughing in my room when the doorbell rung followed by a worried sound of Mark running to my room.
"Stella! Where on earth is your phone!? Are you fine? Do you have any idea how worried I was."
I remembered yesterday's brutal encounter by those men where I dropped my phone.
"I lost it somewhere, Mark. I'm sorry.".
"She'll go to toilet in 5. Should she tell you that too? Oh I have an upset stomach I went to poop 3 times! Oh I just sneezed. Omg! I just had a burp,you should have listened. You want her to tell you all that?" Aiden made fun of him in a high pitched tone.
"I saw you kept bugging her when we went to her brother's birthday. How annoying are you?" he continued.
NOT AGAIN! The cat fight begins.
"Hey you filthy mouth! I am a respected doctor. I've had enough of hearing your bullshit. I keep up with all of your shit because I love her and she lives with you.
I hate you dude. As much as I love her.
Unlike you, I am genuinely worried about her. I care about her.
As much as I would love to know all the small details about her day and everything, no I don't annoy her or ask her to keep talking to me all the time.
You are lucky man! You get to live with her.
But not for long. She won't live here forever."
Mark came to me. Cupped my hands into his and said
"Stella, you have to move out. Please. For me. Live anywhere but here.
I'll find the perfect place for you."
I saw Aiden gritting his teeth.
I have seen the fierce look of Aiden and honestly, I'm scared about Mark now.
"Hey, hey! Aiden stood in between us.
"Did she say she loves you? Not in my house mate.
"Its not your house! Stay outta my business bro."
Mark took my hand and walked away from the house.
"Stella, would you like to go out with me. Like right now.
I really just want to spend some time with you. Alone."
"Umm.
Okay.
I'll be right back"
I got in to see Aiden standing leaning on the wall, arms crossed.
"You were too impudent to him Aiden." I complained.
"Oh, so you're defending him now. Have you fallen for him?"
"I am going out to eat with him, move" I chose to ignore his comment and went inside my room.
I went to take a quick shower and I came out wrapped in a towel.
"DAMN" exclaimed Aiden.
I immediately looked to find him inside my room standing there with his jaw dropped.
"AIDEN! WHAT THE F***!?"
I was pretty sure, I locked the door.
That devious man used the key.
He came close to me.
Like reeeeaaally close.
Closeness that made me forget to breathe .
Closeness that my lips were 2 inches apart from his.
"Damn hon, you take my breath away. What are you doing to me?"
My cheeks went red.
He wrapped his arms around my body.
I was losing control of my brain.
He picked me up and put me on my bed, came close to me.
His body pressed against mine.
"Don't blame me for losing my mind" he whispered.
He planted soft kisses on my neck sending shivers all over my body.
"Aiden, let go.
Mark is waiting."
"Oh f*** Mark. I am going crazy."
If he didn't stop. I'd probably lose my shit too.
"Stella. I am in my car. Come soon." heard Mark's voice across the room.
I immediately pushed disappointed Aiden away, out of the room and warned him not to repeat this. Which he obviously ignored.
I wore a cute and comfy oversized sweater and jeans and ran out to Mark who was really patient though I took so much time.
We went to a cozy place to hangout and ordered my favourite meal.
"Stella, Mark said Can I ask something bothering me?"
