Wow... I'm so sorry this chapter took so long... My grandpa just died so I kind of haven't
had a chance to get online at all... Thanks so much for your reviews...
Operation: Awakening
Chapter 5
Sharon's POV
Shoving her Lit book into her locker, Sharon let out a yelp when she felt someone come
up behind her and tickle her sides. Whirling around, she looked into a pair of dancing blue
eyes. "Bastard..."
Punching him lightly in the stomach before turning around and throwing the rest of her
books in her locker, Sharon snickered when she heard Alden start to moan and pretend to
be injured. Turning back around, she grabbed his arm and started pulling him towards the
parking lot. "You big wuss... Come on, I want Chinese for lunch..."
Grinning at her, Alden shook his head and said, "When don't you want Chinese? You're
practically addicted to the stuff..."
Mock-glaring, she flicked him off and let out a "Bite me..." before pulling her keys out of
her pocket.
Laughing, Alden wrinkled his nose and did his best impression of some of the snotty girls
at their school. "Ew, I don't know where YOU have been..."
Pushing him into the car parked next to hers, Sharon reached down to unlock the door.
"Jeez Alden, you never did understand when to keep your mouth shut did you..."
Throwing her bag in the back seat, Sharon paused to wait for Alden's comeback. Hearing
only silence, she turned around to see Alden standing next to her, tensed and staring at
something blocked by her car. Uh oh, this can't be good...
Moving up next to him, she tried to figure out what had caught his attention and stopped
immediately and stared in shock. There, strutting towards them, was a thin, pretty
redhead. Oh, shit...
Placing a hand on Alden's tensed shoulder, Sharon spit out a terse "What the hell do you
want Nina?"
Batting her eyelashes up at Alden, Nina placed on perfectly manicured hand on his chest
before purring, "I just wanted to say hi to my baby..." Turning to look at Sharon, she
smiled fakely, "Nice to see you again, Spitz..." I forgot how good she was at unnerving a
person with just a look...
Blinking, Sharon watched Alden stare down at his feet and mumble something. God, she's
been gone 2 years... Why did she have to come back now? She should have stayed away,
for Alden's sake... "Why don't you tell Alden whatever it is that's so important so he and I
can leave for lunch..."
Playing with the button on Alden's shirt, Nina ignored Sharon and stepped forward so she
was pressed against Alden's body. Speaking in a low voice, Nina smiled and said, "I just
wanted to let you know that I'm willing to let whatever happened between us stay in the
past." Running a finger over Alden's lower lip, she whispered, "I don't want our past to
interfere with our future..."
Snorting in disbelief, Sharon watched as Nina sauntered away. "Does she honestly think
you still need her? She's gonna be surprised..."
Grabbing Alden's hand, she attempted to pull him towards the car but was met with
resistance. Turning around, Sharon looked up at Alden's face with concern and felt her
heart constrict at the angry/longing look on his face.
Biting her lip, she quietly walked up to him and wrapped her arms around him. "She's just
a part of you past... She can't hurt you anymore..."
Feeling him sigh and begin to relax, she rubbed his back with her hands and rested her
head against his chest. "I'll kick her scrawny little ass if she even tries..."
Alden's POV
Closing his eyes, Alden wrapped his arms around Sharon's small frame and tried to block
out the memories.
Nina and him dancing at the winter formal...
Nina buying him a brand new sketch pad for his birthday...
His first time with Nina...
Sharon telling him that Nina was doing some things behind his back....
Nina telling him Sharon was lying and that she loved him and would never cheat on him...
Nina telling him the song he wrote about her wasn't good enough...
Nina canceling their Valentine's date because she said she had a headache...
Himself and Sharon finding Nina and Brock half naked that night at Brock's house... Nina
screaming that he never understood her... The front door slamming behind him... Sharon
running after him... Driving him home... Spending the night... Holding him when he
cried... Listening when he yelled... Telling him that it would all be okay...
Opening his eyes, Alden stepped out of Sharon's embrace and looked down to meet her
clear, green eyes. Smiling half-heartedly, he walked over to the passenger side door and
got in the car. "Come on Shar, I'm hungry... And I need to grab some things for Adam's
party tonight..."
Getting in the car and starting the engine, Sharon shook her head. "Screw the party...
Screw Adam.. Screw Mike..."
Shaking his head, he said... "Uh uh, we are going... I need to forget for tonight..."
Sorry it's short... It's just really a filler to bring Nina back and to prep for the party which
will be a big chapter... Lots of confrontational stuff... Hopefully I'll have that up soon...
Sorry I don't have time to respond to your reviews individually but I LOVE YOU ALL!!!
