I'm currently giving my last exam and I think I'm gonna pass with flying colours.
But to succeed with flying colours I'll have to do this One question which I've been trying to do from the last fifteen minutes. This is the only question left for me to do and the bell indicating the end of exam will ring in ten minutes. Ugh! I'm doomed
I got so frustrated with the question that I wrote whatever came to my mind. Seriously though, teachers should show a little mercy on us students. They always give tricky questions to solve and we innocent students have to suffer. Not fair
The bell rang shortly and I sighed in relief. Finally, exams are over and now I can enjoy with my friends. These past days we all were so busy studying that we didn't meet much except for Aiden and me. He would show up at my home some days saying he wanted to clear this or that topic and my mom would let him in happily because he has saved my dad...kinda, also because my mom and his mom are friends.
I am right now sitting in the cafetaria with my buddies planning on what to do since our exams are over.
"Hey, what about having a movie night at one of our house today?" Carrie asked grinning. Julie straight away nodded her head agreeing with her.
"Not a bad idea but no chick-flicks are allowed only then will we accept" Blake said and the girls nodded.
"Okay, no chick-flicks. We will see a horror movie. Okay with it?" Julie asked and looked at each one of our faces. The boys nodded her head and then Julie looked at me for reply. I don't like horror movies, more like I can watch a horror movie but the rest of the day, I'll be paranoid of the slightest sound, also they are very scary and I won't be able to sleep the whole night after watching it.
"Kia?" Carrie asked me raising her eyebrows. I nodded my head reluctantly cause I didn't want them to know that I'm scared of horror movies. The boys will definitely make fun of me especially Aiden.
"Hey guys...miss me?" Came the annoying voice of Britt.
"Miss you my shoe" Carrie stated scoffing and Blake patted her back proudly while we chuckled.
Aiden dragged his chair close to me and whispered that we won't have to watch a horror movie, with all the make up britt has applied, she is enough to act like a ghost. At that I giggled causing Britt to look at me.
~~~~Brittney's P.O.V~~~~
As soon as I reached the cafetaria, my eyes landed on Aiden. He was sitting beside Kiara, that bitch. I've never understood why Aiden befriended her. It took hardly three or four days for them to stick together. I don't understand what is so good about her that he is by her side, protecting her. That bitch!
I decided to go and have a chit chat. Melissa and Audrey were behind me. I walked up to their table.
"Hey guys....miss me?" I asked smirking a little while looking at each one of them.
"Miss you, my shoe" Carrie stated scoffing and I ignored her. She thinks she can fight me? Ha! As if.!
She is not even my competition. Before I could reply to her, I heard Kiara's giggling and looked in her direction to find Aiden whispering something in her ears making her giggle. Bastard!
"Having fun Kia?" I asked with disgust and she rolled her eyes before saying, "more than you can ever think." I snorted at this. I'm sure this happiness is short lived and if not; I'll definitely make it.
"Whatever, have fun bitches" I walked off saying that with Melissa and Audrey following me.
~~~~Kiara's P.O.V~~~~~
"What's her problem? Is it necessary for her to show us her face every time she sees us?" Carrie growled and Blake tried to ease her anger.
"Leave that guys and let's focus on our movie night" I said changing the topic and they cheered.
I'm currently at my home sitting, doing nothing in particular. I am so happy that exams are over and it won't be happening any time soon. This whole month, I've been studying my ass off and now its time to enjoy.
I didn't get time to have a chat with anyone during exams. Even though my mom and dad are easy going, they are very serious about school, exams and marks . So, I was strictly denied to talk with my friends during this past month. I could only talk to them at school sadly.
I missed everyone so much; Dan, Jeremy, Blake, Aiden, Jake; but mostly I missed my two lovely girlfriends- Carrie and Julie.
Liar! You've missed Aiden the most and don't even try to deny it.
I shook my head at my conscience denying her completely. I am not lying. Why would I think about him? He is just a friend to me.
Yeah! Keep saying that. Do you want me to prove you a liar? Okay then tell me- why did you write his name on your textbook while studying for your English exam? Why do you always think about the incident that happened with you and Aiden on the trip? Why did you stare at his cute picture during the night which he forgot to delete? Also, why were you going over your chats with him? Most importantly why were you smiling goofily when today you caught his sight du-
Okay stop! Ugh! Why are you so observant? Can't you mind your own business? I said as blush creeped up to my cheek thinking about him.
So who lied?
Me. Happy? "Ugh!!" I groaned out loud. Why did I have to think about him. ghrrr!
I hate you. You make me feel as if I like him.
Oh believe me when I say you do like him.
Oh my dear conscience, would you shut your mouth? I groaned and lied on my bed with my face facing the ceiling.
I don't like Aiden. He is a good friend of mine, yes! a good friend or do I like him.....? No I can't...no no no...I can't. Why? I don't know. How can I like a playboy? Not that he proved me that he is a player but people do say that. Gosh....it's confusing. Should I call Carrie and Julie and talk about it? No no no...they'll definitely tell him and I don't want that. What to do? What to do? What t-
I was interrupted by my phone call. I checked the caller Id, it was Carrie so I picked it up.
"Hello Carrie"
"Hey! Get ready soon. I'll pick you up at 7:00p.m. Don't forget to take extra clothing, we may crash there after the movie." Carrie told me.
"Okay, I'll be ready by the time you come. Bye" and I hang up.
So it was decided that we'll watch the movie at Daniel's house as his parents were on a business trip.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was 6:50p.m. currently and I was all ready wearing a blue denim shorts and a grey crop top with white sneakers and my bag that contain clothes and other accessories.
At exactly 7:00p.m. Carrie picked me up and we made our way to Dan's house. It's my first time going to his house and I was excited.
"Hey!" Dan greeted as we made our way inside.
"Hey, you have a nice house" I commented as I looked around his house.
"I know...right?" He said cockily and I shook my head. So full of himself.
"Where's everyone?" Carrie asked beside me and he pointed to the back door,
"Julie and Jeremy are out there and Aiden and Blake went to buy snacks for the night." Dan said and we nodded going out to Julie and Jeremy.
"Hey Julie" I waved at her and she hugged me and Carrie.
"What ya doin?" I asked her lazily and she shrugged. We heard a car door closing.
"Okay guys, get in. I think Aiden and Blake are here" Dan yelled from the kitchen.
Carrie kissed Blake as soon as he entered the kitchen.
"Okay girls set the snacks while we go and search for more horror movies to watch" Dan says.
"How many movies are we planning to watch?" I ask them out of curiosity.
Curiosity my foot. Stop lying, I know you are asking this out of fear.
Shut up!
"Why Kia, are you afraid?" Jeremy asks me and I scoff. Yes! She is.
Shut up! They don't have to know that.
I set the snacks on the table and settled myself on the couch between Dan and Jeremy as Aiden started the movie "Conjuring" and sat on the carpet as the couch was occupied.
In the middle of the movie, I felt a hand grip my shoulder and I screamed my throat out due to fear causing the girls to shout too. Suddenly, I heard laughter from behind me and I immediately looked behind to see Aiden laughing his ass off. How did he reach there? Wasn't he sitting down in front of me?
"What the heck Aiden? When did you reach there?" I asked beyond shocked.
"Well...you were so engrossed in the movie that you didn't notice" Aiden shrugged after trying to contain his laughter. I blushed at that. Was I so oblivious to my surrounding? Damn! That was embarrassing.
"You should've seen your face though. It was as if you saw a ghost" Aiden continued laughing making others laugh to. I blushed in embarrassment but composed and defended myself.
"It's no biggie. Anybody would've screamed if you sneak like this"
"Yeah yeah" he said and laughed again.
"Whatever, let's continue watching" I tried to distract their attention and it worked for some except Aiden who kept on teasing me in between the movie. The first movie finished and we put on the second movie "Ouija: Origin of Evil."
It was scary for me and the girls because we constantly screamed when the horror scene came. This time the movie was interrupted by the doorbell scaring the hell out of us.
"Who is it at this time?" Julie questioned to which Jeremy replied that it must be their girlfriends. We nodded our head and they went to open the door. Soon we heard laughter as they made their way to us.
"Hey guys" both Miley and Riley greeted. I shifted to the carpet with Aiden as I let them sit on the couch. Now it will be awkward if I will be the only one left on the couch surrounded by couples. "Okay...start the movie" Dan said and we resumed seeing the movie.
It's currently 12:05a.m. and we are currently watching our third movie "Insidious" and I am being paranoid. I am so terrified that I'm currently hiding my face on Aiden's shoulder and peeking through it. At one moment Aiden was laughing but now he has stopped teasing me but I can still see the amusement in his eyes. Bastard!
As the fourth movie starts, I look at everyone to see them all snuggling with each other- Carrie and Blake on one corner of the couch; Julie and Jake snuggled in a blanket; Jeremy and Milly on the other corner of the couch and Dan and Riley probably in his room as he is not here. I look at Aiden to see him also sleeping. Why am I wide awake?
Because you are scared...duh!
No need to rub it on my face.
Nah! I'm not. I'm just stating the truth.
Well...no one asked for it
My conscience is never with me...
ugh!!
I switched off the television and tried to sleep assuring myself that my friends are with me and nothing will happen.
I was sleeping when I heard a 'thud' and cool wind hit my face. I jerked awake and looked around and saw that the window was open, I sighed in relief and closed the window and again tried to sleep but somehow whenever I start drifting off, I hear a 'thud'. Terrified, I cling onto Aiden as he is the closest to me. His eyes stutter open and he looks down to his arm and it was then I realise I was holding him in a death grip. I quickly take my hands off.
"What?" He asked sleepily.
"I heard a weird noise" I told him, fear clear on my face. He waited for few minutes.
"I can't hear any noise. It must be the wind" he said casually and was going to sleep when I tugged at his sleeve. He opened his eyes again, I could see he was annoyed but still controlled it.
"It's not the wind. I heard a 'thud' sound two times" I pleaded as I was frightened to no end. I think he saw the look I was giving him as he opened his arm and motioned me to come near him with his head.
"Come here and sleep. There is no sound coming, it's just that you are frightened" He tells me and I immediately cling to him. I was still not sleeping though; my eyes were wide open searching for anything strange.
"Sleep Kia, there is no one here and I am with you." He soothed me by brushing his hand on my head and lulling me to sleep. His words kind of gave me relief. I felt safe in his arms and I soon drifted to sleep.
~~~~~~~Aiden's P.O.V~~~~~~~
I fell asleep in the middle of watching the movie but was woken by someone clinging onto me. I opened my eyes and look to my arm and that someone suddenly releases the hold. I look up to see Kia.
"What?" I ask her not completely out of my sleep.
"I heard a weird noise" she says with fear. I wait for few minutes but didn't hear any.
"I can't hear any noise. It must be the wind" I tell her and go back to sleep but feel a tug on my sleeve. I opened my eyes again. I really wanted to sleep and not being able to sleep was annoying me to no end.
"It's not the wind. I heard a 'thud' sound two times" she pleaded with a frightened look. She must be really scared watching all those scary movie so I opened my arms and motioned her to come to me with my head.
"Come here and sleep. There is no sound coming its just that you are frightened" I tell her softly. She immediately comes to me and cling onto me. I look at her to make sure she is sleeping but her eyes are wide awake roaming here and there as if someone's gonna pounce on her if she closes her eyes.
"Sleep Kia, there is no one here and I am with you" I comfort her and pat her hair slowly lulling her to sleep. She slowly closes her eyes and I look at her features. I don't know why I get so soft for her; I've been with lot of girls before but she is different. Feisty in her own way, and as cheerful as a kid on Christmas.
She snuggles more into me and I hold her tightly suddenly not wanting to let her go. She fits into me so perfectly.
When did you become so cheesy?
Huh? I don't know. What's happening to me? How can I even think like that?
I think I know...*smirks*
What?
You like her
Wha- No Way! Are you dumb or what? You've been with me forever. You know I don't catch feelings.
Keep reminding yourself that, but I know this time it won't work so, man up and accept your feeling dickhead!
Shut up!! Let me sleep now. I look at her for a last time and drift to sleep.
~~~~~~~Kiara's P.O.V~~~~~~~
I open my eyes to the sun rays hitting my face directly. I blink my eyes repeatedly, then I start getting up when I notice something huge stopping me. I look down to my stomach to find a hand. I trace my eyes from the hand to the person to see Aiden sleeping peaceful- Wait Aiden?
I slightly freak out but then notice we are still on the carpet and I start remembering yesterday's event. Me being scared- clinging to Aiden- he telling me nothing's wrong- me not believing him- he opening his arm wide for me-I gratefully going to him and embracing the warmth- he soothing me with comfort- and I falling asleep.
I blush deep red and try to squirm out of his embrace, but no; his freaking hand would not budge. I squirm again but this time he moves and slowly opens his eyes. I quickly shut my eyes pretending to sleep to avoid awkwardness.
~~~~~~Aiden's P.O.V~~~~~~~
I feel some movement and slowly open my eyes to see Kia sleeping peacefully. I trace my at her, her face is flawless and her skin is so soft. Her eyelashes curled up making her adorable. Her cute button nose and her pink plump lips-gosh her lips are so edible. Ugh!!
"What are you doing to me Kia?" I ask her sleeping body.
"You have no idea, how you've changed me into a softie towards you. I can be myself in front of you without wearing a facade. I laugh and talk with you like a normal teenage guy of seventeen years and it makes me happy to be normal. Ugh!! Even I don't know what's happening to me, but I think I like you" she suddenly gasp from her sleep shocking me.
Wasn't she asleep? Oh My God! What did I do? Sh*t!
~~~~~Back To Kiara's P.O.V~~~~~
I was listening to him but opened my eyes and gasped as he said the last part? My heart beating so fast I'm afraid it will jump out of my chest. I looked at him and saw shock written over his face. He must've thought I was asleep...yeah!
"Good morning" I squeaked out blushing hard. He nodded his head and I got up from the carpet.
"I'll go find the girls" I said and dashed out of the living room to find the girls. At least I avoided awkwardness...phew! When I didn't find the girls, I sat on the bench on the backyard.
My thoughts drifted back to Aiden's confession...was it even a confession? I don't know, but I'm naming it as confession.
His words did something to me which I can't decipher. I felt warmth spreading and a weird feeling in my stomach.
Does he really mean those words?
Does he like me?
Do I really make him happy?
Ugh!! Why did I have to pretend to be sleeping? If not I would not have heard that.
Is it going to be awkward between us now? Of course you dummy! Ugh! Why me?
"Kia what are you doing here?" I jump a little, startled. I looked to the side to see Carrie and Jules coming near me.
"Nothing" I reply to her previous question forcing a smile.
Should I tell them or not? Afterall they are my besties. Argh!! Why is it so confusing?
"Kia, what are you thinking about?" Jules ask and I hesitate but tell them what so ever. They patiently sit and hear everything I have to say.
"Oh My God! Is it true? Woah!" Carrie squeals and Jules join her.
"We were waiting for this to happen. Even though it wasn't a confession, but at least he thinks he likes you, it's a progress. I'm so happy for you Kia" Jules rambles on and hug me, soon turning it into a group hug.
"What are you saying? Are you mad? It would be so awkward between us now. We won't be able to talk without the tension in the air" I told them sighing.
"Everything will be just fine. You stop worrying about it so much" Carrie said then hugged me lightly, Julie did the same before going back into the house.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am currently with the girls sitting on Dan's house watching 'Pretty Little Liars'. I love this series a lot. Boys are in the kitchen cooking food, god knows what they are preparing. I just hope its edible.
I've been successfully avoiding Aiden from the morning. I can't look at his face without remembering the morning issue.
"Food is ready!" Jeremy shouts. I stand up with the girls and head over to the kitchen. Riley and Milly went home early as they had some work. We decided to stay till the evening.
"Mhm...smells good" Julie comments making the boys grin.
"Don't just compliment now, let's taste the food first. Just because it smells good doesn't mean it could be eaten" Carrie says with a smirk on taking the boys reaction.
"Yum...it's super tasty. Don't blame me if I finish this off because I don't think I'll be able to control myself" I said looking at each one of them except one. I averted my eyes as soon as it moved to him.
Thank god, the boys didn't notice yet. I stuffed my face with food; devouring it in minutes.
"Calm down Kia, slow down your hunger. Food isn't running away" Jake comments making me blush. I get flustered getting caught doing such unladylike things...ugh!(according to them, I don't care how I eat)
The others laughed at this including Aiden. Huff!
The rest of the lunch was filled with Dan and Jeremy's jokes and a little bit of dad joke in between.
