Okay. Let me begin by saying, first of all, hi! Welcome back. And secondly, has everyone seen last night's episode? I mean, jesus! Those creepy ass things Sally meets in the hospital, Aidan with that cute little boy (awww!) and of course, that unexpected scene where Josh jumps Nora in the hospital room. I was like, 'are they seriously showing this on TV?' and then, 'you go, boy. Have at it!'
Anyway, onto my story. Sorry my last chapter was so half-assed and shorter than my others (I was heading out the door after I wrote the end of it).
P.S. In case you didn't get it, loved last night's episode!
P.S.S. Read until your eyes bug out (I'm kidding, of course).
I own nothing. Not a damn thing *sighs in anguish*.

"Wow... this is... this was... I mean really... spectacularly boring."
Josh chortled as he looked at his best friend over his beer. Anna had insisted he rest and she wash the dishes. Of course, because of his OCD, he had protested strongly but, she shut him up and made him sit down with a beer to relax.
"Yeah. But, it was a lot less boring with you here. Aidan is sometimes too busy trying to at lest pretend to socialize with the neighbors and Sally is too busy making fun of them."
She laughed as she put the last dish away. "It sure sounds like Sally."
"That's because a good portion of the neighborhood are just full of asshats!" The aforementioned spirit exclaimed as she misted onto the kitchen counter.
And Josh, ever ready to have a showdown, jumped in. "Sally!"
"No. It's true. I'm not gonna pretend to like these people like-"
"What? Like what? Who, me?"
The ghost shrugged. "Your words. Not mine."
"What the hell-"
Anna rolled her eyes. She did not wanna stick around for their banter to escalate and she wanted to see a certain someone with whom she'd barely had any alone time with during the evening.
"Have you guys seen Aidan?"
Two pairs of knowing eyes swiveled in her direction and she fought a blush.
"He's on the porch." Josh supplied.
Nodding in thanks, she quickly dried her hands and walked out of the kitchen, carefully avoiding her friends gazes.
She also missed the secret, mischievious smile shared between the two.
...
Aidan turned and grinned at the woman joining him on the porch stairs. "Just the woman I was thinking about."
"I bet you say that to all the girls." Anna counterd with a cocked eyebrow, though he could sense the timid satisfaction through her voice.
They sat in silence a moment. A silence filled with tension but, not all together uncomfortable.
He snuck a glance at her, drinking her in with his dark eyes.
My God, she's beautiful. His thoughts startled him in their wistfulness.
Her dark, chestnut locks moved gently in the breeze and her softly floral, musky scent of her went up welcoming into his nostrils. making his whole body tighten on reflex.
The blue jacket Josh had helped her out of when she had arrived, was on her again and he questioned as she wound it further around her. "Cold?"
He should think so. Even though the temperature didn't necessarily bother him, it was still hard for him not to realize how nippy it was.
"A little."
He gazed at her. Her cheeks were rosy with the cold and he could make out small puffs of breath coming from her mouth as she took in the night air. His eyes lingered longer than necessary on her lips. Lips he wanted on his again. Lips he wanted on other parts of his body. Lips he imagined would feel heavenly on his-
"Would you go on a date with me?"
This was the second time he was asking. And he wanted a clear answer now and let it be known in his voice.
It was a trite, stupidly mundane question now, with the way he was feeling. But, it stopped from making a complete dick out of himself and give into the very strong impulse to drag her inside and de-virginize her on his cold, lonely bed.
He pictured it vividly in his mind already.
Her nude, perfect body laying vulnerable and spread open for him...
Dark hair fanned against his pillows...
Her pink, juicy lips parting in sheer ecstasy as he spread her open...
The amount of endless cries and moans coming from her throat as he thrust inside her. Her tight inner walls gripping him in welcome...
The brunette woman of his fantasies turned to him, a serious look in her eyes.
And finally, the way she would scream his name as she coms apart for the first time in his arms...
"Yes."
...
A/N: Okay. I'm bad. I know this. Just wanted to get it out of the way that a date is coming, alright. Could you believe I was chuckling to myself as I wrote Aidan's last thoughts there? I was just thinking, 'the poor girl has no idea what he's thinking about.' HA!HA!
Feedback, please!
