I hope you like this chapter; well actually I hope you liked the first one too. I am very skittish about this story of weather you would like it or not.

"Hey Chris, where's Aidan?"

"He's not here today, he has the flu."

"Oh I'll just go and call him on the pay phone. Do you want to

come with me after school to his house?"

Chris had a weird expression on his face like he was watching

Crystal cheating on him. "No, I have to go home and take care of

Johnny, you know my little brother."

"Ok." I looked back and kept walking to the payphone down the hall.

"Aidan, how are you feeling sweetie?"

"I'm alright, I'm just eaten some chicken noodle soup my mom made."

"Well, is it ok if I come over after 6th period? Oh and we need to talk about

Chris."

"That would be wonderful, now what about Chris?"

RINNNGGG RING, RING {The Bell}

"Oh I have to go, I'll tell you when I get there."

I hung up the phone and turned around about to run to class when I saw a

guy right behind me. I yelped and realized it was Chris, but he still had the same

expression glaring in my eyes. I ran to first period and didn't think about

anything else for the rest of the day.

My 6th period class I shared with Chris, we sat at the same table in algebra,

and I felt his eyes on me the whole time. When class was over I went through

my locker while everyone else ran out of the halls for winter break. I threw my

messenger bag back on and began to walk through the empty halls towards the

door.

I heard footsteps behind me, and quickly turned around. I saw Chris following

me.

"Chris what are you..."

"Do you really love Aidan?"

"Why would you ask such a crazy question?" He grabbed my arm tightly.

"Chris you're hurting me."

"Just answer the question!" You could hear anger in his voice as his fist grew

tighter on my arm.

I stood there silent for a couple of minutes and looked straight into his mad

eyes. "Yes, Chris I love Aidan, yes." I said calmly.

He let go and charged out of the building. I dropped to my knees holding my

arm and going over that whole day. I couldn't tell Aidan now what happened

earlier with Chris, he just couldn't know. But even if he could how would I even

start begin, I don't even know what happened.

I walked to Aidan's house which was close by. When I was finally in his room

he was flipping through channels sitting up under the covers.

"So, how old are you now, 10?" I said while shutting the door. He looked at

me and smiled and grabbed my hips to bring me next to him.

"Finally you're here, I've been bored all day. You wouldn't believe how soap

opera's saved my life today."

I laughed and touched him forehead. "Not so bad, feeling better?"

"Now I do." He smiled and pushed me closer to him. We hugged and he gently

kissed me on the lips.

"Are you trying to get me sick Mr. O'Shea?" I said looking up into his eyes.

"So proper." We both laughed and he turned off the TV.

"I have to go; my dad wants me home early to finish my homework, he said

he wants to bring me somewhere tonight."

"Ok but wait." He said grabbing my hand as I got up. "What were you saying

about Chris earlier?"

"Oh I was wrong." I said with a worried stare.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, nothing at all."

"You're lying, I always know when you're lying but you obviously need to think

so I'll let it slip this time." He said smiling.

"Okay, thank you, love ya."

"What, even after my sensitivity?"

I laughed and sat back next to him. "Ok, I'll stay here sense I'm such a bad

girl but I have to do my homework."

"That's ok, I'll just watch Baseball."

"Do you need anything before I start?"

"Not from you I don't, you just relax."

"Oh I'm so happy." I got under the covers and spent an hour with him in his

bed. I looked at him so concerned about his game and I remembered how much

I loved him. His mom came in and gave Aidan water and asked how long I was

going to be there.

"Oh, well I actually should be getting back now. I have a date with my dad."

And so I left.

"How was your day sweetie?"

"Good, I visited Aidan, he's sick today. And at school, Chris," I paused, there

was Chris across from the people below us. "Oh my gosh, Chris!"

Chris turned around and saw me, and began to tell his father about something.

"What about Chris?"

I was going to tell him, but he was here, so I'd just have to put it off. "Oh well

he's just sitting right over there."

Chris began to walk toward us with his father. "Can we join you?" Tom, Chris's

father asked.

"Yes, just come on down!" My father began.

I sat there as I felt Chris's eyes on me. "Yes my wonderful daughter here went

and saw Aidan today, he has the flu. She stayed with him for 2 hours, isn't she

great?"

"Wow, so Bobbie, how serious is you and Aidan?"

"Well we love each other, and I can't see myself without him." I said looking

over at Chris.

That night I talked to Chris as much as I could, without mentioning Aidan

again. That night I thought that Chris might hurt Aidan by the way he stared at

my diamond necklaces that Aidan gave me that year before also a large teddy

bear the hit the ceiling, I named him Jr. Aid.

When dinner was over my dad let them come to our house. But when I finally

couldn't keep my eyes open anymore he cut my teddy bear's head off.

As I woke up I looked around the room as I stretched. My arms up in the air I turned my head a little and... "AHHHHHHHHHH!"
