What's this? An update? Shocker.
Haha actually tho it's very hard to find motivation nowadays.
Enjoy xo

I fidget nervously and raise my fist to knock.

I'm stood outside Aaron's house, and it's actually my first time here. Aaron moved out of the penthouse and bought a mansion in a place called the Gardens.

It's a gorgeous house. With large gates surrounding the area and a big fountain in the middle of field, it's heaven. As cold hearted as he is, he has amazing choice.

I had to call Seth to get the address because I couldn't muster up the courage to call Aaron.

Seth didn't know for sure whether he was home or not but he told to me to make sure there was thirteen cars parked in front. If there is, then he's home.

All thirteen of his cars are here, by the way.

I'm here to apologize basically, call a truce.

I'm such a bitch. I snapped at him for no reason. I take a deep breath and knock twice softly.

And lean back and forth on my tip toes while waiting for someone to open the door.

The door creaks open softly and there stood one of the maids. I smile friendly and her face brightens when seeing me. She's a fairly young brunette with dazzling hazel eyes.

That's weird. I don't know her, why is she looking at me like she knows me.

"Hello ma'am," she says in a thick accent. I think Scottish. I only know that because I had a Scottish boyfriend in 8th grade. She opens the door wider for me to step in.

"Hi, I'm Aurora. Is Aaron here?" I ask politely. I stand inside the house awkwardly, not sure if I should take off my shoes or not.

She's doesn't say anything so I assume it's okay.

"Yes, sir is here, I believe he is taking a shower. Would you like to wait?"

I nod my head and she leads me to the sitting room. "Would you like something to drink? Water maybe?" She offers. I shake my head but thank her anyways.

"Hey, can I ask you something?" I ask before she leaves. She nods and turns around look at me like she knows something I don't.

"Do I know you?" I rack my brain for her face somewhere in there.

Nope, never seen her before.

She smiles brightly and shakes her head. "No ma'am, you don't."

"Hm, what's your name?" "Juniper."

What a unique name. But she doesn't seem evil or anything, it's like-

I don't even know!

She leaves the room and I stand up. I walk around the room and notice the only pictures hung are of fruit or the sky.

what a basic asshole, he is.

The crystal chandelier catches my eye, hanging from the ceiling with a dozen candles on his arms, illuminating the room. It's massive in size.

I've been walking around for about five minutes now and I really just want to see Aaron. I'm getting impatient.

I'll just walk up to his room. It's not like I'm a stranger or anything. I just don't know where his room is.

I look for Juniper but she's nowhere in sight. Fuck it, I'll find it.

I start up the stairs and trail down the long hallways. I open each door and am met with a dark room. The very last room, the one with a large doorway in the middle is cracked open the tiniest bit.

I push open the door carelessly and immediately shout in surprise. Aaron's spins towards me and surprise takes over his face.

My eyes widen immensely and heat takes over my cheeks.

He's in boxers only. And they're at a dangerous level.

I immediately shut the door close and speed walk down the hall way. I can feel my face about to burst in flames.

The picture of his abs and toned body takes over my mind. Good lord.....

"Aurora," Aaron calls from behind me. I stop walking and turn around to find him in shorts and slipping a shirt on with his eyes trained on me.

"I'm sorr-ry for barging in. I should've knocked." I explain and step towards him.

A hearty laugh erupts from him and it eases my mind. Amusement is flowing in his eyes as he watching me from leaning on the doorway.

"It's okay." He replies smoothly, unaffected. His wet hair shines in the light, falling on his forehead. His face freshly shaven makes him look ever more handsome and sharp.

"How'd you get the address?" He gestures to the house.

"Seth gave it to me. Good choice by the way, it's amazing." I reply coolly, completely pushing away the real reason I'm here.

Aaron sees and knows I'm at a war with myself and he smirks in the moment of it. His forest eyes challenging me. He raises his eyebrows, waiting for me to say something.

"Okay, I'm really sorry for what I did yesterday. It was completely wrong and a bitchy move, you did nothing wrong. I don't know why I did that. I'm sorry. And you're right, I called you first and you're right I was acting childish-,"

Aaron's hands go to the back of my neck and he smashes his lips down on mine with force but yet gently.

My eyes widen a fraction of an inch but soon flutter close.

"Mhm."

His lips move perfectly with mine as if they were sculpted for each other. He licks my bottom lip and pulls away after a hot minute.

"That's one way to shut you up." He whispers and gazes into my eyes fiercely.

Oh the spell of Aaron Knight.

A small smile takes over my lips and I get on my tippy toes and place a soft kiss on his lips.

"In conclusion, I'm sorry." I finish with a grin.

"In conclusion, you're annoying. But it's okay because that's my favorite thing about you." He flicks my nose and raises his hand to tuck a stand of hair behind my ear.

There go the butterflies in my stomach-

Wait scratch that, it's a fucking zoo.

The Florida thing suddenly comes to mind and I bite my lip in consideration on when to tell him.

A small groan erupts from Aaron. His eyes become clouded and he closes his eyes. I furrow my eyebrows in confusion.

"Are you okay?" I ask and examine him to see if he's hurt.

He chuckles softly as if I didn't get something and shakes his head. "Forget about it."

He pulls me close to him so I'm leaning on his chest. He takes my hands and entwines it with his rough hand.

"I have something to tell you." I start and my heart starts racing when he traces little circles on my palm with his thumb.

"More words?" He questions smartly.

I nod against his chest and realize that if I'm still enough I can hear his heart beat.

"I'm going back to Florida." I say finally and stop beating around the bush.

Expect an update soon! Or don't.
HAHAHHAHA
