"Are you good now?" Aiden asked, as well pulled over at the entrance of Mr.Gray's new hotel

"Yeah, thanks," I sniffled.

Jesus fucking christ why did he have to be so nice. It felt like he was trying to make it hard for me to stop liking him.

I loud knock on the window suddenly startled me, as I looked outside, seeing an unclear face. 

Aiden rolled down the window, exposing a guy I'd never seen, in a shirt and blazer.

"you're father's asking for you," he said,

"yeah, coming," Aiden nodded.

We got out of the car, and walked towards the Hotel, which was a few feet away.

As we neared the entrance of the hotel, the feeling of unease flushed through me all over again. 

Aiden placed a hand firmly on my back and gave me a small reassuring nod. I smiled and nodded back, and we walked into the hotel.

It was lit a bright yellow and was quite crowded. Through the crowd, I spotted my mom, who saw me and immediately walked towards us. 

"hi, you both look great!" She smiled holding a halfempty glass of wine. "You just missed it, they just showed everyone your painting, Hayley, it's incredible," She smiled, tucking a loose strand of hair behind my ear. Aiden had picked the painting up from my room this morning to get it here.

"Thank you, mom," I smiled, feeling a warm sense of relief. 

"I want you to meet someone, wait here," she said, walking away.

She came back moments later, with a man, who instantly recognized. My stomach was turned upside down, and my mind was completed occupied.

"Mr.Whitlaw, I'd like you to meet my daughter Hayley," She smiled.

I stuck my hand out, shaking his. Samuel Whitlaw, was on the most famous painters in Westwood. I wouldn't say he was the best, but definitely the most popular. I'm no one to judge, but he owes a lot of his success and fame to his rich parents. He is however most certainly insanely good at what he does.

"Mr.Whitlaw, it's an honor to meet you I...I, this is crazy," I stuttered.

He nodded, "I saw your work Hayley, I think you might actually have what it takes," he said.

I smiled, feeling my chest rise.

We spoke for a bit longer, and after we left, Aiden and I took a seat at one of the tables. Since I didn't know many people here, I wasn't repeatedly asked about my leg, which I was pretty grateful for.

Momnets later, Aidens dad walked towards us.

"Hey guys, thanks for coming, uh Hayley how are you?" he asked.

"Alright, h-"

"Great, great. Aiden I need you to call Mr.Heartfort and tell him I'm busy tomorrow."

Aiden rolled his eyes and got up, holding his phone up.

After a while, we decided to leave. I was done with whatever I wanted to be here for, and Aiden didn't seem to want to stay.

"Can we stop for food?" Aiden asked.

"Yes, I am so hungry, can we get take out?" I said.

"Yeah yeah," he replied, pulling over at a McDonald's drive through.

"What do you want?" He asked.

After we picked up our food we started driving back, I'm not sure where though.

We drove for a while, after which , he pulled over literally in the middle of no where.

He pulled open the sunroof, exposing the passenger seats.

"Come?" He said.

"What?"

"To eat,"

"Here?"

"Yeah,"

"Where are we,"

"Just come," he chuckled.

I got out of the car and looked around,

We were at some cliff somewhere, the sky above us was clear, and there were patches of grass and small plants and blushes scattered around the ground.

He jumped into the passenger seat of the car, and opened the door for me to get in.

I hopped onto the top seat, struggling with my crutches, but managed to sit on top of the seat.

I looked up at the dark sky, seeing a few stars, and smiled.

Aiden handed me my burger, and rested his elbows on his knees.

"Wait really, where are we?" I asked.

"Just like 10 minutes away from school," he said.

"Why haven't you told me about this place before, it's so cute," I said letting out a small laugh.

"I was saving it for sometime special,"

"Whats special about today?" I asked.

He looked at me and smiled, "I don't know....it just is," he said.

Our legs brushed against each other, and I felt the speed of my heart beat increase again.

"Aiden?" I said softly.

WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING.

"Hmm,"

"Why are you doing this?" I asked softly.

"Doing what?"

"Being so nice, it's pissing me off,"

"Its pissing you off?" He laughed, "I'm always nice to you,"

"I know, it's annoying,"

"Why?" He chuckled.

I cleared my throat, and he looked at me with narrowed eyes.

I sighed. "I think I really like you, and I really don't want to....I don't know why I'm telling you that, because, I didn't plan to."

WHY DID I DO THAT.

"But yeah for a while now...which is weird because I don't think I've ever actually liked a guy before, and there's been a lot of guys I thought I liked, but they never made me feel the...way... you do. See, that's what I mean I've never thought like this, forget saying it out loud, I sound weird, I and I hate it but I-

"I really like you too Hayley," he chuckled.

"What? No, not like that, I mean I actually like you...like not the way that I like Jacob and Levi and Ryan,"

For fucks sake, like, like, like, like, like.

"Yeah," he chuckled again.

"You knew?....." I asked stupidly.

"Sort of.."

Darn him and his cute fucking chuckle.

"What?"

"Well why were you so mad about Cassidy and I," he said, and there it was again, I was mad again.

"Right...." I mumbled. "What about...Cassidy.."

"What about her?" He asked.

"Wait you did say that you like me right?" WHY DO I SOUND LIKE A STUPUD CHILD.

"Yes, not in a Ryan, Levi, Jake way," he laughed.

"And there's nothing going on between me and Cassidy, she was drunk, and sort of...pushed herself onto me, but nothing happened, my shirt was off because I was going to go for a shower," he said.

"Oh....okay?" WHAT the hell is going on.

"We're good, right?" He asked.

"Yeah...yeah," again, what the fuck is going on.

"Wait what?" I said, and before I knew it Aiden presed his lips to mine.

My mind literally blew up with emotions, which was not a very common occurrence for me.

I felt sparks of electricity flow between us as our lips connected and moved in synchronization, and my heart was beating out of my chest...but in a good way.
