~~ ~~~~~ Aiden~~~~~~~~
"Aiden tell me why you murdered Mrs. Elizabeth Knight" The detective asked me.
" I didn't murder her I just happened to be there"
"According to the evidence you're our prime suspect for the Murder of Elizabeth"
"How many times do I have to say it I didn't Murder her. I witness it" I ran my hands through my hair. Frustration, Anger, Sadness, Panick was ran through me. I felt a lump in my throat as I stared at my hands. Blood.
"Aiden"
"Aiden"
I heard him calling me but I couldn't bring myself to answer. I was having trouble breathing as all around me keeps spinning.
"Please make it stop!
I shouted covering my ears from the screeching sound that I was hearing. it was so loud and Painful. My chest hardened, I felt suffocated as everything around me blurred.
"Aiden" The detective ran to me, shaking my body, screaming my name as darkness evolve me.
My eyes slowly adjust to the brightness as I stared at the two figures that stood before me.
"Ma'am I'm sorry but we have to continue our interrogation"
"Can't you just stop for minute and give the boy some breathing space? he had panick attack for the first time in ten years all because of this I dunno stress!" Mum tried wiping her eyes then turned to look at me. "Huni you're awake" she rushed by my side and held my hand.
"I'm fine mum" I muttered softly.
"Aiden I'm sorry but can you please tell us what happened between you and Enny "
"Stop it! can't you see he just woke up" my mum snapped at him.
"it's find mum" I clutched her hand. " Enny and I began dating a month after she started Luciano highschool, it was at jacob's party when I confessed my feelings....
"Jacob's throwing a party, you coming?
I asked Enny. it was just another Friday and we were sitting on the swing at the neighborhood playground.
"I don't really know but I will like to just that I have to asked my mum first ". She said swinging back and forth. I took time to appreciate her beauty, with her hair blowing in the wind no doubts Enny was really beautiful. her features compliments her face and she was perfect, funny and caring.
"I would really like you to be there"
"Oh really... why is that ? she stopped swinging and stared into my eyes. her ocean blue eyes was so memorizing and so enchanting and I felt my self lost in them.
"Aiden you alright" she touched my face. that moment my face got heated up and my knees went weak. I couldn't find the right words to answer her.
"Ummm...y-y-y-e-e-a-h "
"Why you stammering" she laughed. The Lord knows how much I love her laughter. it was so peaceful, so lovely and it gave me happiness. I was always happy whenever I'm around with her even during my worst days. We've gotten so closed that we'd don't have to tell each other how our day went but just looking at ourselves the answer was there. And we supported each other.
"No reason" I cleared my throat.
"you know you've been weird lately"
"I don't know what you're talking about" I looked away from her.
"Keep denying it. that's what cowards do"
"you calling me a coward now? I turned and look at her.
"Maybe" she laughed and continue swinging
" I can be a man if I want to "
"Sure you can " she said sarcastically and laughed.
That night I stood at Enny's doorstep waiting for her. the trees gently sway to the rhythm of the breeze, I sighed softly.
"You must be Aiden" My head turned to the direction of the voice. I could see the resemblance between her and Enny but their eyes differentiate them.
"Yes Ma"
"Please call me Elizabeth. Enny will be out any minute, you two should have fun" just like that she disappear into her car and drove off.
"Hey Handsome" I stare in awe at Enny. Her black dress, blue jean jacket that compliment her eyes.
"Wow. who's this " I laughed.
"The girl from your comic books". I laughed at her joke. she slide her hand into my arms as we walked to jacob house since it was around the block.
"omg there's more people than I thought"
"Jacob invited the whole school" I led her inside the house. loud music, soft drinks, alcohol, typical teenage party.
"Hey Man. Hi beautiful" Jacob smiled hugging her then shaking me.
"How come I don't get one of those hugs" jacob and Enny laughed.
"Next time be reborn as Enny if you want hugs"
"Oh Lord that's not fair" I pouted.
"You should really see your life right now you look like this" jacob made a funny face and Enny laughed
"No he looks like this" I laughed at them trying to mimick me.
"You two are trouble. what you drinking"
"Soft drink for me "
"Booze for me "
"alright. you two play nice while I'm gone"
"We're always nice "
"yeah yeah whatever" I stormed off to get the drinks. The place was noisy, jams playing, couples making out in the couch, student drinking booze, dancing and all fun games. I looked over to where Enny stood. She was having a blast with Jacob. those two hit off well that's why they're nothing but trouble together. Those mischievous. I took the drinks back to where they stood.
"there you go" I hand them their drinks.
" I don't see why you two wanna live dangerously with alcohol" jacob and I laughed at Enny's remark.
"there's nothing dangerous about it " I shrugged. " it's all about living in the moment"
"there's nothing about living in the moment about it " Enny sip her drink.
"How would you know if you haven't tried it " jacob asked.
"Nope I don't have to try it to know it's not living in the moment" the song changed into some pop genre and Enny's eyes lit up. "omg I love this song " she began to sway to the beat.
"C'mon let's hit the dance floor" jacob led her to the dance room and I trailed behind them. the loud music, the lights that keep changing colors every minute, laughter, sweats, it was something so beautiful and the night was still young, We danced like Maniacs.
