Chereads / My Boy Nextdoor / Chapter 3 - Moments

Chapter 3 - Moments

"Oh Jayden I wasn't expecting you....." I say thinking how stupid that sounds.

"Yeah I just wanted to see if, you wanted to hang out at my place today, do you?"

"Yeah sure but-" I was interrupted by a now again shirtless Aiden.

"Only if I can come" He said wrapping his arm around me with a wide smile on his face.

"Ummm... yeah your boyfriend can come, but I was hoping it would just be us." Jayden said and I felt bad as I was going to correct him on the boyfriend thing Aiden stated.

"I'm right here you know!" In this moment I knew what was going to happen, Aiden if had to choose fight or flight he would choose fight, especially when it coms to me.

Taking his arm down Aiden stepped forward and Jayden stayed put, Aiden now put his fists starting to clench.

"Not in my house you boys need to take this outside!" My mom said quickly walking behind me.

"Yes ma'am" Aiden said walking out of the house.

"Oh my lord momma I have to go make sure nobody gets hurt." I say scared of what could happen.

"Go ahead just please don't get hurt yourself okay hunny."

"Yes momma." Walking out the door I was feeling anxious seeing the two boys squaring up in the driveway I step up to Aiden and grab him by the face.

"Aiden please dont do this I cant stand to watch you get hurt." I say with big pleading eyes.

Aiden put one hand on my hand and another on my cheek softly caressing it "Okay princess, but by saying this I don't want to let you down.... I have to do this to prove my worth and test his, I don't like him you don't even need a boyfriend." He whispered the last part making me sigh in his strong chest.

Walking over to Jayden I hold his hand in mine "Be careful I tried to talk Aiden out of it but he is a fighter and doesn't give up on things he believes in, that's why I love him so much" I whisper the last part smiling at my words.

"Well if he's going to fight so am I!" Jayden says angrily almost rising his voice with every word, and he starts shoving me away slightly.

Not expecting this I stumble and fall hitting my head on the pavement.

"Haley! Oh my god princess are you okay?" Aiden says scared when I look up at him all I see is the anger in his eyes, and I know the shits about to hit the fan.

"My head." I say. Picking me up bridal style I lay my head on his chest and close my eyes.

------Later that day------

I wakeup to Aiden rubbing my head when I notice his lip and nose are cut from being hit, and I know he went on with the fight but for some reason I am happy about that.

I bring my hand up and rub his lip, smiling he asked "Do you like my battle scar?"

Laughing softly I roll onto him and hug his waist. "I love it, but I wish you didn't continue with the fight."

Rubbing my back he smiled proudly and said, "I didn't I thought him a lesson for pushing you, you got hurt because of him, but he didn't like getting punished so he fought back and clipped me a couple times. Don't worry though he hits like a girl."

Laughing at that last bit I kissed him on the cheek for defending my honor and called him my prince charming. Then we left my room to go and get some watermelon from downstairs.

Eating watermelon we where laughing over the every little nothings of life.

"So why did you act like we where dating?" I asked Aiden underneath my big slice of watermelon.

"What do you mean?" Aiden asked playfully punching my shoulder.

"When Jayden said 'Yeah your boyfriend can come' you didnt correct him." I say

"Okay neither did you." Aiden states in a defensive tone.

"True, though I was going to but I kept being interrupted." I say giggling and playfully punching his arm.

A flushed looking Aiden asks, "Erm Haley?" Hearing my name I look up.

"Yeah?" I ask unsure of what was happening.

"Do you think of me as more than a friend.... maybe a boyfriend?" Aiden looks slightly scared of my answer.

To be honest I can't say that I have never thought of me and Aiden being more than friends, the thought has crossed my mind more than once. Honestly, I dont know if I should be honest or not, on account of my newfound liking to Jayden it's hard to say.
