Chapter 17 - 16.

Kristen's pov

Its been two days since I last saw Aiden, I haven't heard from him either. It's a Saturday morning, a little after 11 , a cup of coffee in my hand, a book in the other. I hear my phone vibrate, I pick it up, it was a message from Aiden.

Kristen we need to talk. I huffed. I picked my book back up, another vibration, I groaned before picking my phone up.

I know I have been a jerk ,but this is important. I'll be in your place in 2 minutes, I'm close.

Wait, what ?? What the fuck is he coming to do here? He's got to be joking, I don't want to face him, not after what happened the last time, Another vibration.

I'm outside your door, please open up.

No. I replied, I don't want him here at all.

Kristen please you have to hear me out.

I didn't move an inch.

Kristen, we need to talk.

I got up and walked to the door, I inhaled, exhaled and I opened the door.

" what do you want Aiden?" I looked down at his hands, he had a white  bag.

" what's in the bag?" I asked out of curiosity.

" my mom has this charity ball thing going on and she wants us to be there" for a moment, I thought he came to apologize for treating me bad.

" Tell her I feel sick, I don't want to be there." I walked back to the couch and picked up my book. I heard his sigh, I flipped to the next chapter.

" Kristen, we had a deal"

" sure we did, but you are being an ass to me. Thats not part of the deal"

" well, kissing isn't part of the deal either but we kissed anyway, how about we stick to the deal" he yelled

" Aiden" tears filling up my eyes. I shut my eyes close and wiped my tears. I wouldn't let him see me like this. 

" after the month ends we will tell everyone we broke up. Lying to them isn't the best thing to do anyway"

I grabbed the bag away from him and walked into my room. I burst into tears immediately, I sat down on the floor, my back resting on the door. It seems I have fallen for him hard and now he's hurting me. Right after the whole thing is over, I'm going to re-sign and find another job to do. I shouldn't have said yes to any of these from start.

I cleaned my tears, took my bath, did a light makeup. I curled my hair and let them down. I opened the bag and brought out the dress. It was the most beautiful dress I have ever seen. An ocean blue dress with gold lace off the shoulder. The blue matches Aiden eyes, and I just realized he was wearing a blue and gold strp tie.

I wore a matching gold heels to go with it. I walked out of the room, I grabbed my phone, I took my coffee cup to the sink. I walked out of the house leaving him behind, few seconds later I hear him behind me.

" we need to stop somewhere first, I need to get flowers for my mom." He said as I sat down in the front sit of his car. I didn't give him a reply, I folded my arms and looked straight ahead. He bought some flowers moment later, red roses.

We arrived at the venue, he laced his hands in mine, I pulled away. He laced them back and whispered in my ears.

" Behave"

I didn't give him an answer.

" Kristen my dear, you look breathtaking as always" it was Olivia, she walked up to me and gave me a hug. She was in a black dress and it suited her.

" you look amazing Olivia, its so nice to see you again"

" here mama" Aiden handed her the flowers.

" oh Aiden, thanks. I'd like to introduce you to some people let's go"

***

Olivia already introduced me to almost have of the guest. I grabbed a glass of white wine, I spot Liam, Mia, Ava and Xander talking and laughing. I walked up to them.

" hi" I smiled, they all replied with smiles on their faces.

" it's good to see you Kristen" Xander and I hugged.

" Xander said you've been a great help for him, I'm really grateful Kristen, your are an amazing person." Ava said

" oh its nothing Ava, Xander is an amazing person too and..." I felt someone grab my hand.

" what did I tell you about Xander? I don't want you anywhere near him." Aiden said to me but his eyes were on Xander.

" and I told you..."

" Aiden?"

We all turned around to see who it was.

" MADISON!!?" They all said in unison
