A/N thanls to my amzaing beta chewy
We have been driving for the last 10 minutes, and I haven't spoken a word to him. I just keep replaying everything in my head that had lead up to this moment. Thinking about Saturday and trying to find the tiniest detail that hinted to me that Madi was not ok with me liking girls but nothing comes to mind. She was all smiles; her eyes held no hate or disgust to tell me that what she was saying was a lie.
"Hey you ok?" Aiden brings me out of my inner turmoil.
"Yea, I was just thinking about Saturday when I told Madi."
"I cannot believe you told her." Hello! Thinking the same thing.
"She was supposed to be my best friend Aiden. Why in the hell wouldn't I tell her?"
"Because she's Madison!" he says it like that's reason enough. Ok maybe it is.
"I know you're right. I thought I could trust her." Sighing
We pull up in to the parking lot, and just as I go to step out of the car Aiden grabs my wrist.
"Hey, look at me Spence." facing him. "Don't worry, we will fix this, We will think of something Spence." I nod my acknowledgment before stepping out of the car; I cannot help but smile at his thoughtfulness though.
Walking into Starbucks, I yell out "get me a Caramel Macchiato, and I will go get us a table."
"Sure Spence."
Taking a window table with a seat facing Aiden; I cannot help but laugh as I watch him not so subtly checking out the ass of the girl in front of him.
My inner thoughts are starting take over my mind again; ok I really need to stop this because it's not going to change it.
Aiden is walking towards me with a goofy expression plastered on his face, and I try not to laugh as he trips over something and spills some of our coffees.
"Did you have a nice trip Aid?"
"Ha! Ha! Very funny Spence!"
"I try." Giggling now.
"Hey did you see that chic in front of me in the line?"
"You mean the one you were not so subtly checking out?"
"Yea her, she had a body to die for until she turned around, and she had a face like the dead." I cannot believe he just said that. "I mean seriously Spence, what's the point in having the body if you don't have the face to match?"
Instead of answering him I send him a pointed glare along with a punch in the arm.
"Ow Spence. What the hell was that for?" Did he seriously just ask me that?
"For being such a shallow jerk, that's what its for!"
"What are you talking about Spence?" god this boy is stupid.
"God you are stupid!"
"Whatever Spence" Shaking my head at his stupidity.
"So have you thought about what we are going to do to fix this little rumour that is no doubt made it's way around school by now?"
"I'm pretty sure it hasn't made it all the way around school yet Spence."
"What makes you think that?"
"Because Glen hasn't called you yet screaming down the phone." He has a point.
"Yea, well with my luck he is probably just waiting to do it in person in front of the whole school at lunch or something equally as bad."
He just smiles at me, what is that? I mean seriously I'm going through hell I am probably going to be chewed out in front of the school by my brother, no less, and he just smiles.
"I have an idea!" Goofy smile in place.
I smile shaking my head "God help me." This is going to be painful.
"Hey! Do you want to hear my plan or not?"
"Sorry Aid, go ahead, I just don't want you hurting yourself with all this thinking."
"Funny Spence, real funny." I just laugh harder at him. "Ok the... oh my god this is good. I didn't think I was capable of coming up with something so good." he says as he rubs is palms together in front of him like he is about to tell me the worlds best gossip.
"Jesus Aid spill already. I have nearly drank my entire coffee." I state smiling at him.
"Okay! Okay, jeez Spence, impatient much!" Glaring at him. "Ok so on with the plan, as you know Madison has been trying to get me to go out with her for months now." I just nod in agreement wanting to see where he is going with it. "So think about this, we both know that if Madi was jealous of you and/or something you had that she wanted. She would think up something to get you kicked off the squad, right?"
"Yea I suppose."
"So do you think that she would be jealous enough to kick you off the squad if you where dating me?" He cannot be serious.
"You cannot be serious?"
"I am. Would she or would she not be jealous enough to kick you off the squad?"
I suppose he has a point. She would be enraged at me for it. Madison has been throwing herself at him for months now, it was kinda embarrassing to watch actually.
"Yea she would."
"So we both know that the whole school has at some point seen her throwing herself at me, and I keep telling her I'm not interested, right?" Seriously, this boy needs to get to the point.
"Get to the point Aiden."
"Ok. So I was thinking what if we tell everyone that we are dating and that Madi made it up about you being gay because she is jealous that you have something she wants. Well two things she wants. Your captain of the squad, which we know Madi has wanted to be forever, now you are dating the star point guard. So we say that she made it all up to get you off the squad and to try and get me to break up with you."
It's true Madi has wanted to be captain for years, and the whole Aiden thing. His plan just might actually work.
"You know what Aid? I think that may actually work." I say with a huge smile on my face. I know I have said it before but I am going to say it again! I fucking love that boy.
I mean seriously how many boys do you know that would be willing to pretend to date you just so you don't have to come out as a lesbian to the whole student body and your family?
"Yup, I think so too." he says proudly.
"You do know though, that if you do this for me that you are not going to be able to have any hot chicks hanging off your arm for a while, right?
There is that goofy smile again. "Oh but I will have a hot chick hanging off my arm, I will have the hottest chic in the whole of king high population on my arm. I will have you!"
"You're a goof Aid, but you do realize that you are not going to be getting laid for a while with our little role playing?"
"Yea I know. But hey I have a huge porn collection and both my hands. What more do I need?" EW! Mental images which I so never ever needed!
"Gross Aid, just gross." I say shaking my head but I cannot help laughing.
"You do realize though that when my mum finds out that where 'dating'." Yes, I used finger quotes. "That she is going to invite you to family dinner, probably at least once a week?"
"I so don't mind, your dad's cooking is to die for." True my dad is a mean cook.
"True, come on let's get back to my nightmare and get this show on the road." I say as I stand up and hold my hand out to him. He just looks from my hand to me and back to my hand again. Have I told you that this boy is thick?
"We are dating remember Aid? Hand holding comes with the territory."
He just smile and takes my hand.
"I forgot"
We head back to his truck hand in hand ready to get this show on the road.
