Steam!: What if I wanted you, too?
I was so confused right now, more then ever. I didn't know why I let Aiden kiss me. And I defenitally don't know why I liked it, but I did, alot.
He said it was wrong and that why shouldn't have done it but, I just... felt something that I never have before. And I want to feel that again.
Tomorrow I'm going back to school under heavy guard by the guys, Kevin and Eric couldn't find the vampires scent anywhere in town except my house and it was an unformilliar scent to them all. Sunny found out that there were very few mind readers anymore- probably less then 50- and most of them have disapeared from there home town so that mean there about 20-25 suspects that are almost impossible to track down.
I talked to all the guys about why I was like the way I was that morning at school, Aiden said probably had something to do with the fact that someone I was close to was killed by a vampire and it must have really scared. All the other guys said I was just in shock, which sounds about right. But, when I asked why my eyes were black they didn't know how to answer me because the didn't have a clue as to what happened to my eyes.
I'm just glad I get to go back to school- wow I never thought I'd say that- it's been so boring being cooped up in the guy's house these past few days and I think that people are starting to wonder I've been, mostly Cain.
Speaking of Cain.
"Hey, Sun." I greeted Sunny, who was sitting on the couch with Aiden watching The Twilight Zone. I loward myself onto Sunny and cuddled up to him, which he lauphed at.
"Why are you all of a sudden so loving." He asked with a laugh.
I shrugged, "I love to cuddle, to let you know. And I need some comforting, so shut up and comfort me, damn it!" He laughed again then shifted me so that I was laying on my side and my back was pressed against his chest and his arms were tightly around me. "Geez, Sunny. Are you sure gay?" I asked jokingly.
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure, but I'm just comforting." He said, kissing me on the cheek and then laying his head on my shoulder.
"Well, your very good at it, Babe." I said cuddling more against him. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Aiden staring at us andslightly growling "Aww, is Mr. Big and Bad jealous?" I asked looking over to him.
"No." He snarled lowly.
I was about to open my mouth to say something back but, then my cell phone started to play my ringtone 'I write sins, not tragedies' by Panic! in the Disco. I sighed, "Sun I should get that." I said., then started to get up, but he groaned then pulled me back down, I giggled, "Sun, if I give you a kiss then will you let me go?"
"Maybe." He said with he eyes closed. I giggled again, then bent down and gave him a small family type kiss on the lips. When I pulled back again he let me go and I walked to the counter pick up my phone, when I was about to answer Sunny called to me from his place still on the couch.
"You know I might change my mind this whole gay thing for you, Aqua."
I knew he was joking, I don't think Sunny is capable of liking girls that way, I walked back into the living room with my phone in hand. "I'm honored, Sun, Really." I said laying back down, with my back pressed against his chest.
"You should." He said sleepy, he closed his eyes again. My phone rang again and opened it and anwered without looking at the caller ID, I wish I had.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Baby." Oh holy fuck, it's Cain.
I sat up quickly, getting an annoyed groan from Sunny, but he then stopped when he saw my expression, I must have looked horrified. "What is-" I covered his mouth, I didn't want Cain to know I was with a guy.
"Hey, Baby. What's up?" I tried to say casually.
"Nothing. I just missed you, where've you been?"
I bit my lip and closed my eyes for a second. "Just with some family."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"Aqua?" He asked.
"Yeah?"
"You don't have any close family." He accused.
I absolutly silent, I didn't know what the hell to say. "I - I-"
"Are with those four freaks from the hallway again." He yelled.
"N-no" I stuttered.
"Aqua, I swere to god if I see you with those guys again, I won't hesitate to kill you. Got it?''
"Yeah." I whispered, I felt a tear fall from my eyes, that I quickly wiped away. "I got it." And then he hung up. I slowly snapped my phone shut and was silent. I knew they heard everything that Cain said with their super hearing.
Sunny moved to give me a hug but, I got up quickly, "I'm sorry. I think I'll go to bed early. Wake me for school." And then I walked off.
//..//
The next day when I woke up for school, I felt so nervous and scared to see Cain, what if he say me coming to school with the guys? He'd kill me. No they won't Cain hurt me anymore.
Once, I got ready and went down stairs I was greeted by three very perky boys and one quiet one.
'Hey, Aqua. How are you?" Eric asked me catiously.
I sighed, "I think I need a group hug."
They instantly, ran to me and nearly knocked each other over trying to get to me first, Kevin ended up being the first to me and he wrapped his arms around me tightly and a second later the rest of them nearly knocked me down by ramming into me into a hug. "Can't -- Breathe--" I struggled out. They laughed then let me go.
As I was catching my breath I noticed that Aiden didn't hug me. "I'm not posions, Aiden." I said to him.
"It's not that, he never hugs anyone, he's been hugged but, he never hug them back." Eric explained.
"Hmmm, I bet you all $20 bucks I can get him to hug me back." I bet them.
They looked at each other then the three of them said deal and shook on it. I slowly walked over to Aiden and he looked up and stared up into my eyes. I suddenly remembered last week when we kissed.
I reached my hand up and stroked his cheek with the back of my hand, he hesitated for a while but then he did the same and stroked my cheek. I moved my hand to his neck and into his silk soft hair, then I wrapped other arm around his neck hugged him.
We both forgot that the guys were less then ten feet away and we just got lost in each other. He hesitated for longer then five minutes before he finally wrapped his arms around my waist and hugged me tightly and protectivally.
He burried his head into my neck and placed soft kisses there, trailing butterfly kisses over every ever part of skin he could get to. "I'll protect you, Aqua. I promise." he then started to nip playfuly at the skin on my neck, his fangs grazed my skin and it actually felt good until he went over the spot were I was bitten last week.
"No." I whispered. i pushed him away from me, then turned my back to him. "I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.... I'll go wait in the car." I ran past them and went to the car but I didn't get in instead I decied to just walk to school it's only about a mile or twop and would be better if I didn't arrive with the guys anyway.
//..//
I made it to school on time but, I barelly had time to get to my locker, get my books, and get to class on time so I decided to skip first period I had some thinking to do anyway.
I went to the huge oak tree that we usually ate lunch and sat down on the ground in front of the trunk, I hugged my knees to my chest and rested my head on them.
It only seemed like a couple minutes later I heard someone walking up to me, but has actually been an hour. I looked up and my eyes locked with soft purple ones. "Hey." He said.
"Hi." I said kind of embarassed.
"Do you mind if I sit down?" He asked pointing to the spot next to me. I shook my head and he sat down. We were quiet for a while and then Aiden reached over and pulled my chin up so that I had to look at him. "I'm...sorry about this morning. I shouldn't have done that." He apologized.
"Why do you keep saying that?" I whispered.
"Because it's true. I shouldn't have taken advantage of your vulnerable situation."
"Aiden... did you ever think that I maybe wanted you to kiss me?" I asked him.
"No. Do you?" He whispered coming closer to me.
"Yes." And then I pulled him down and kissed him on the lips. This kiss was much more intense then the other, he kissed me back without hesitation and started to kiss me harder and deeper. His tounge outlined my bottom lip and I opened my mouth and let him slip his tounge in. Our tounges messaged each others. His hand rupped my ribs gently and he loward me to the ground while he was hovering over top of me but, not lowering all his wieght on me.
I pulled back to get air, but we still stayed close to each other, he stroked his hand on my face and smiled down at me. "Your so beautiful." He whispered.
I giggled, "Your so cheesy."
"I'm just talking the truth." He said with another warm smile
I giggled again and pulled him down to kiss me.
"Well, well, well, look at this." Said a voice I could never forget. Cain.
I stood up and turned around to see Cain leaning against a nearby wall. "So, how long has this been going on?" He said jesturing to me and Aiden. Neither one of us answered him. "What don't I get a reason for being cheated on?"
"Do you want to know why I cheated on you?" I yelled at him.
"Yes" He smiled.
"Isn't it obvious. If you don't know your pretty fucking stupid." I yelled.
"I think I've been pretty nice to you."
"Nice?" Aiden sai in disbeilief. "You treat her like shit, you bastard."
"Shut up, this doesn't concern you." Cain said to him.
"If it involves Aqua, it involves me."
"Aqua, is mine. So you aren't involved with her, so leave." Cain said smugly.
"I don't belong to you. If anything I belong to Aiden." I said taking Aiden's hand. He smiled down at me then kissed my cheek.
"Aqua, look at this guy. He wants just one thing." Cain saiid.
"And what did you want?' I asked.
He smiled an evil smile, "I won't lie, I honestly wanted the same thing."
"Shut up! You asshole, don't you dare talk about her like that." Aiden snarled. he took a step towards Cain.
"What are you going to do about it?" Cain said.
Aiden smiled widely and his fangs extended, Cain took a step back in fear and then stopped and stood his ground. Yeah, bad move.
Aiden jumped up and disapeared in the air, when he came back down he was behind Cain, he tapped him on the shoulder and when Cain turned around Aiden punched him square in the nose, which knocked him out and when he hit the ground his head hit the ground and cracked open.
Aiden appeared by my side again, and took my hand and led me away from the mess. We entered the school and headed to our next class that we have together.
"What's going to happen to Cain?'' I asked him only half-interested.
"He's not going to die but, he will probably have a concusion and maybe amnesia so he won't remember what happened." He assured me confidently.
We stopped outside our next class, I was about to open the door when Aiden flipped me around kissed me roughly but, warmly. He pulled back and rested his forhead on mine. We entwined our fingers and looked into each others eyes for awhile before we turned around and walked into the class holding hands.
We had this class Sunny too, and when he saw me he jumped out of his seat and ran to me. When he collided with me we fell over onto the floor. "Aqua were have you been? We were worried sick- wow." Aiden quickly lifted Sunny off of me and then helped me up to my feet.
"Don't do that Sunny." Aiden said wrapping a protective arm around my waist.
Sunny rolled his eyes and turned around to go back to his seat mumbling, "Protective son of a-"
"Aiden, Aqua! Take your seats, now! Don't inturupt my class again!" Our teacher, Mrs. Smith said.
Aiden smiled then took my hand and lead me to my seat.
