"Tell me what she said to you Jones," Scarlett said,

"What who said?" Levi asked.

"Cassidy," Scarlett explained.

Jacob and Ryan looked up at me, as well as Aiden.

"Nothing!" I said,

"Jones-

Aiden looked back at his phone, and I scoffed, "she said that she thinks she can take me," I said,

"In a fight?" Ryan asked.

"Yup,"

"And?"

"Thats basically it, oh and that she slept with Asher cause she thought it'd get it me," I said , probabaly shouldn't have though.

"Well jokes on her, he sucks," Levi said, and I smiled at him.

"Aye, I'm ordering food, what do y'all want," Ryan asked.

We decided to spend the weekend at my house after the football game. Westwood hight won btw.
It was currently 7 in the night, Sunday.

I zoned out momentarily, trying to figure out if I had any work left, and surprisingly, I didn't.

"Jones, what about you?" He asked.

"Um," I said looking at him,"yeah, I'm not really hungry, I don't want anything," I said, turning back to my desk.

"You haven't eaten since lunch," He added,

"Yeah, somethings wrong with my stomach," I replied, zoning back out.

After a while, the food came and we put on a movie which was fun..other than the parts I forgot to pay attention to...but other than that.

After it was done, I decided to head out to the balcony for a while.

I looked out into the sky that was actually surprisingly bright because of the light pollution. It almost had orange tints to it.

"Hey," Aiden said from behind me.

I turned around and smiled at him.

"I'm sorry about Cassidy" he scoffed, and for a minute I thought he was talking my about their kiss. Then I realized that he didn't fucking owe it to me to say sorry, he was talking about my interaction with her today.

"Aha no she didn't scare me," I said.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah," I chuckled.

"Well if it counts for anything, I don't think she can take you," he smiled,

Ahahahaha yeah his cute little fucking attractive smile.

"Wow, thanks maybe after my leg starts working," I scoffed.

"Hayley, are we...okay?" He asked softly, after a small gap.

WHAT.

"What?"

"I don't know...I feel like you've been a little distant recently, you're doing fine right?" he asked.

Fuck.

"Uhm, yeah, why wouldn't I be," I said.

He frowned for a second, before his lips turned into to soft smile.

"Good," he said.

He stood beside me, staring out into the sky. He ran a hand through his hair, and when he put his arm back down, it brushed gently against my palm, and I felt a rush of electricity flow through me.

It was literally so weird. Ever since the accident, people seemed to have this effect on me, and I hated it more than anything.

Thinking like that was dramatic for me as well, but it's like weird small things that people did changed my mood, and I hated it.

My heart skipped a beat everytime Aiden called my phone.

I got goosebumps when our hands rubbed.

And I hated it.

My alarm woke me up the next morning, although I had been awake, rolling on my bed for at least an hour before.

I got out of bed, cleaned up, and changed into my outfit for school. I tied my hair up, grabbed my stuff, and went to the living room.

I looked around, and didn't see anyone, so headed into the open kitchen.

I made myself a coffee but managed to drink only half of it, as the feeling of anxiousness took over, which came literally out of the fucking blue, idk.

"Hey," I heard a deep, groggy morning voice, as I turned back to see Aiden.

I smiled at him, placing my cup pf coffee on the counter in front of me.

"Everyone left for school, I'll drive you?" He asked, putting a few books in his bag.

"Yes please," I said softly,

We walked out the front door, and into his car, my crutches dragging behind me.

"I'm gonna get breakfast here, have you eaten?" He asked, pulling over at a small café.

"No, I don't want anything though,"

"What?"

"I had coffee at home," I said,

"Hayley, you haven't eaten since lunch yesterday,"

"I know, I'm just really not hungry."

He frowned, getting out of the car. I get it, I'd be sort of concerned as well of someone wasn't eating properly, but I just really wasn't hungry. Not that I thought he was concerned....

Something probably was wrong with my stomach, and I'd much rather eat when I'm hungry than force my self.

I however didn't like being the cause of someone's concern. I hated the thought of my friends being worried about me, it was weird, and somehow made me extremely uncomfortable.

Aiden came back moments later, with some food and a coffee, and shut the door as he sat.

"I got you a cookie," he said, handing me a big double chocolate chip cookie.

"Thanks," I said, letting out a small laugh.

The drive was silent, but not awkard at all. Thats the thing, it was never awkards with us.

Once we reached school, I slowly walked to my first class as Aiden walked to his.

I entered the classroom, seeing that the teacher hadn't started teaching yet. I found Jacob and Ryan, and sat next to them.

"Guys, we're gonna do a project, spilt yourselves into groups of four." The teacher said, looking up from her book.

We sat around the table, for more instructions, as another girl pulled her chair over, and joined our team.

Once she told us what to do, we started getting to work....sort of.

Jacob was flirting with the other girl the entire time, and Ryan was the only one working, because once I finished the border, I had nothing much to contribute.

Later that day, I couldn't get last night's conversation out of my head.

I didn't fucking know why, so I thought about it, as I do.

The reason I felt a small rush of seritonin everytime I get a text from Aiden.

The reason I can't look away when he chuckles, and I can't get my mind off of his beautiful grey eyes.

The reason that I felt my heart beat increase everytime we accidently touched.

The reason I didn't hate Mrs.Holler fucking class anymore.

And the reason that I was so upset that Cassidy was with Aiden that day.

I was falling for Aiden gray.
Falling hard.
And I hated it more than anything.
