Chapter 69
“Don’t forget about the rest of us!” Lucas shouted after us.
Before I knew it, Aiden and I were sitting in his car, in line at the McDonalds drive thru. For some reason, I was feeling extremely hot, and my cheeks were flushed. It must be the heat in the car.
Rolling down the window to the passenger side, I stuck my head out the window. I sighed in relief as the cold November air hit my face.
“What are you doing?” Aiden chuckled.
“Getting some fresh air.” I replied. After I had cooled down enough, I closed the window and turned in my seat to face Aiden. “You’ve been quiet tonight.”
He shrugged. “Not much to say.”
You always have something to say.” I snorted. “It’s hard to get you to shut up. Especially with that stupid nickname you have for me.”
‘I quite like that nickname, princess.” Aiden smirked as his eyes bore into mine.
‘I like it too.” I replied before I could stop myself. Realizing all too late the words that had come out of my mouth, I felt my cheeks heat up in embarrassment.
“I’ll keep that in mind.” He chuckled. “And for the record, you’re much more flexible than I thought.”
Before I could say anything, we were interrupted by the McDonalds employee handing us our food.
All embarrassment was forgotten once Aiden handed me my vanilla soft serve cone. “Come to mama.” I said, as I swiped my tongue against the cold and creamy goodness.
“This is so good.” I moaned, as I licked the ice cream to the right in order to prevent it from dripping on my clothes.
I heard Aiden groan next to me. Curious, I turned to look at him. “Something wrong?”
“Nothing.” He replied, shifting in his seat. “You better eat your ice cream before it melts.”

The next morning I woke up to someone breathing on my neck and an unfamiliar weight on my hip. Turning around, I came face to face with Caroline’s peaceful sleeping form.
What was strange was the room we were in.
There was light seeping through the beige curtains, and the entire room was painted a light gray color. A door stood to the far right, and there was a small chandelier hanging above the bed. It definitely wasn’t my room, and it wasn’t Caroline or Brooke’s either.
The luxurious interior design left me with only one conclusion – we were still at Aiden’s house.
–
I slowly removed Caroline’s arm off of me, careful as to not wake her. As I stood up in bed, I felt a rush of blood go to my head and I was instantly hit with a headache. My mouth was also extremely dry and there was awful after taste.
What the hell happened last night? And why do I feel like I was just hit by a truck?

‘Is the makeup really necessary?” Aiden asks. Now, before you jump to any conclusions, Aiden is
over exaggerating – I have one item of make–up in my hand, and I am using it to draw on my face.
This year for Halloween I decided to go with a classic – Harry Potter. I figured it was bound to swoon
the ladies off their feet, and earn me a few brownie points.
“I can’t believe I let you talk me into throwing this stupid party tonight.” Aiden grumbled as he put on the black robe I got him. Amused, I watched his irritated reflection in the bathroom mirror I was
currently occupying.
“Ah bah bah!” I turned towards him. “I might have done some recon and invited a certain preppy
blonde and her two friends?”
Aiden’s ears perked up at this. “I think you happen to know one of them?” I smirked as I used the black eyeliner I found in Mrs. Cooper’s make–up cabinet to draw the scar on my forehead. “Brunette, real pretty, you have a huge ass crush on her.”
“Shut the fuck up, Lucas.” Aiden replied as he chugged a pillow at me. I easily dodged it and continued to laugh at him. Poor guy, he was so whipped.
“Did I say something wrong?” I feigned innocence. It was so easy to rile him up when it came to

Scarlett – all you had to do was bring her up.
“Finish getting pretty already, you need to finish setting up downstairs.” Aiden growled.
I chose to ignore his snide comment, and instead asked him, “Are you finally going to grow some balls and ask her out?”
He didn’t give any indication that he was going to reply, so I continued. “All this pining around was cute at first now it’s just pathetic.”
“I am not pathetic!” He rolled his eyes. “Me and Scarlett are just complicated.”
I rolled my eyes at him. Trust him to make something so simple, into a complicated mess.
“Don’t tell me you’re still fucking around with Victoria.” I sighed. I have nothing against the girl, well – maybe other than the fact that all she does is talk about her so called friends behind their back. But
who was I to judge, they’re her friends – not mine.
I watched as Aiden struggled to come up with a logical response. “Victoria is…. fun.”
