AN- So after some success with the story linking to this, I've decided to come out with the sequel! (Cue clapping and music). I've decided this story would take place after a year or so of Aria and Orland becoming girlfriend and boyfriend, making them (as I've decided 15-16. Don't worry I'll mention the ages on Coming Out of My Shell). So P.M. me if you have any suggestions/concerns. Alright on with the story! Disclaimer: I do not own RF!
Chapter 1:
The atmosphere in my home is deadly and still. My father, Kyle, and brother, Aaron, have just finished arguing about Aaron being able to date my best friend, Leann.
The argument had gone something like this:
~Flashback~
The day had gone as normal with her father sitting at the kitchen table, reading some papers and her mother was preparing dinner. Aria was sitting in a living room chair, reading the latest edition of a farming book.
Aaron, whom was a few inches taller than Aria had shuffled into the house, closing the door quietly, standing by it. He then said something barely audible to Kyle.
"Aaron, please speak up," Kyle said, not looking up from his papers.
"I'm dating Leann," he said still quiet, but louder.
"What?" he asked, this time, looking up. Kyle had basically forbidden his children from dating, as any father does not want to see his children grow up.
The twins had basically kept all romantic relationships a secret. Until now.
"I'm dating Leann," Aaron said louder and more confidently. He looked straight in Kyle's brown eyes.
"What? I told you not to date anyone!" Kyle said, furious, standing up from the table.
"Dad, I'm sixteen! That's practically an adult! Why can't you just let us date!" Aaron fired back.
"Because you're too young!" he said, as if it was a valid explanation.
"That's not an excuse!"
"Yes it is! And while you live under my roof, you'll to follow my rules!"
A heavy silence filled the room as father and son, stared each other down.
"You know what? I don't care what you think!" Aaron spat. "I bet you dated Mom when you were younger than we are now!"
"Aaro-"
"I'm dating her, no matter what you think!" Aaron wretched open the door and ran outside.
~Flashback Ends~
"O-oh Aaron," Mom says, looking at the door. Dad slams his fist on the table and rushes upstairs. Mom looks at him, and turning off the stove, follows him up the stairs.
I sit there perplexed and stunned about what just went down before me. I have to tell my boyfriend of a year, Orland. I throw the book down besides me and race out the door, not even bothering to grab a jacket from the hook by the door.
The air is cold and frigid, with what would of the sunset if winter clouds weren't present. I bound for Orland's home as snowflakes begin to fall.
Tears begin to blind me the more I think about the argument. The secret is out. Dad knows we're dating. Or at least knows one of us is.
I stumble to the door and knock feebly on the wooden entrance, collapsing on the ground. Snowflakes land on my hair and clothes as hot tears trail down my face.
The door creaks open and someone exclaims, "Aria!" I look up and Orland's standing there.
He's slightly taller than a year ago, standing at 6'0 feet, his pale blue eyes filled with concern, and his platinum blond hair a few inches shorter than shoulder length.
"What are you doing here? Come on let's get you-"
"He knows," I whisper.
"What? How could he-?"
"Aaron. H-he came out t-to D-Dad 'bout d-dating Leann!" I sob.
Silence falls between us as snowflakes dance heavily around us as Orland kneels down and hugs me from behind.
"I-I d-don't want him t-to break us apart," I say looking out at the dancing white particles swirling around in the air.
He turns me around and makes me look at him. "Hey, it won't have to come to that," he says softly. "But-!" Orland cuts me off by kissing me. We continue like this until we hear a
"Ahem."
AN-Dun dun dun! Left ya guys on a cliffhanger! So how's the first chapter to the brand new sequel? Hope you like it! Review please!
