Chapter 49 - Aaron Gregory

Aaron smiled at how Mabel hadn't changed one bit. She had always been like this since they were kids, staring at him like he was some kind of star. If it wasn't for the fact that she was straight forward when with him, he would have guessed she had some kind of crush on him or something.

" What the bloody hell have you been eating mate? You do not look as skinny as you used to", Aaron joked as he hugged her back to have Mabel tear away from the hug still smiling cheekilly.

" Oh shut up Aaron, you think you can escape the part where you apologize to me, you told me I would get an apology once you get back from Europe and I've not forgotten", she said to have him roll his eyes. That was like long ago.

" Aaron Gregory has sadly taken a vow of silence, he is never to speak again to any girl with glasses and blue eyes", Aaron said in his deep british accent that had Mabel pouting, he was trying to get away from apologizing.

" Mae you look like a doll", he said and laughed softly at her. Was this some sort of dream? Aaron was at her school, Aaron attended some expensive boarding school in Europe so he isn't supposed to be here in the first place.

" Mae you still keep this many pencils, you are never going to change are you?", Aaron said going through her stuffs in her locker and she frowned. He just arrived and he was already being overbearing.

" Aaron Gregory, what are you doing in the states?", she asked out of the blue for him to stare at her awkwardly but he didn't look shocked, it was like he was expecting her to figure out sooner.

" I ran away from home", he said to have Mabel gasp. This cassanova was at it again, did his parents know about it?

" Mom and Dad know and they are not going to send someone after me because uncle threatened them to leave me alone just this once and they agreed", Aaron said staring at Mabel whilst lying through his teeth.

Well Mabel was experienced when it came to handling Aaron so she gave him that look that she wasn't believing his words.

Aaron sighed before murmuring. " Ok you are right Mae, I ran away from home and no one knows am here, I plan to tell them by tomorrow but I don't want to... I'm already suffocated in Europe as it is, if they get a whiff of me being here, it is not going to be nice, so please Mae, just this once, please cover for me".

Mabel watched as Aaron went on his knees begging her whilst holding her hand and it was like he was sort of proposing.

Anyone who stared at them smiled and walked away. But one person refused to walk away. Suddenly Mabel started feeling someone's intense gaze on her back and she frowned.

She turned her head around to find Holden staring at her coldly and she suddenly felt uncomfortable, she stared at Aaron and then at Holden before withdrawing her hand. Why did it feel like Holden just caught her cheating?
