Aidan
I sit patiently in the library for the girl from the gardens and hope she arrives. I have no idea what happened back there. What she read, it touched me. It was like no drug I have ever had and I want more. There was something about her too. She was mysterious and cunning but not in a bad way. The kind of person I didn't feel weird crying in front of. Why did I cry? That's not like me.I keep glancing from the door to the clock, hoping and praying she'll come. I catch her sweet voice laughing in the corridor. As she rounds the corner her head is tipped back and her gorgeous lips parted in a huge smile as she laughs. She waves goodbye to whoever she's talking too and enters the room.Even in this light she is stunning. Her golden tanned skin glows in the dingy library lights. Her light brown hair with sun kissed streaks and one pink strip is pulled into a braid and I want nothing more than to just know her name. I lock onto her navy blue eyes."Ready?" She asks and I can't help the smile that spreads across my face.___________________DanikaAidan looks almost relieved to see me as I leave a chatty Samantha to enter the library. His dusty blond hair looked ragged and his chocolate eyes met my almost Navy ones and he watches me the whole time I walk towards him."Ready?" I say with a small smile gracing my lips. His face splits into a massive grin."Lead the way." He says and grabs his bag off of the desk.We walk through the huge dusty old library and I duck into the dystopian isle. That's always a good place to start seeing as he liked the one I read to him so much. I dump my bag on the floor and read through the shelf while pulling books out and mumble as I go.‘Even a book can be dangerous in the wrong hands.’‘Ignite.’‘Hell is empty and all the devils are here.’‘You’ll make bad choices. Sometimes you’ll choose the best of bad ones.’‘Tuesday is Fucked.’‘Everything’s a game. And now it’s your turn.’I have a stack of about 10 books before I abruptly stop."Next isle." I say and we walk up and down the library isles. I climb and jump to get books off of shelves and Aidan has to catch me a couple of times when I fell.We eventually sit at one of the nooks in the grande room. It's small and cozy with 2 big chairs and a large desk between them. We spread books out on the desk and floor around us."Anything catch your eye?" I ask him as he stares down at the collection. He looks up at me bewildered."How do you choose? How do you know which ones will make you escape, make you feel?" He asks with something in his voice I can't quite identify."You don't know." I say with a slight chuckle in my voice. "Just pick one."I watch idle as he sifts through all the books until he picks one. House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J Maas."That is one of my favourite books. Although I might just be biased because I love her writing." I lean back in the chair with a satisfied look on my face."What makes you love someone's writing?" He sits back in his chair and looks at me curiously."I don't know." I shrug and look at the books around me. "Anyone can write but it takes a special kind of person to just have a way with words. Authors are the second best people to have the touch with words." I trace my fingers along the cover of Shatter Me by Tahera Mafi."Who's the first?" Aidan asks. I snap my head up to look at him."Song writers. There is nothing that can make you feel as much as the perfect song." I give him a small smile and continue tracing the book."Who's your favorite writer?" He genuinely asks."Where to begin?" I know a sparkle has appeared in my eye.We sat for 2 hours in the library just talking about books and music and the world before Mrs Watson's soft voice went through the intercom to tell us the library was closing. "Thank you." Aidan says while we walk out with his ‘to read’ pile. "It was fun." I say as we walk down the dead halls to the parking. "Thanks for the fun afternoon. Enjoy your evening." I say politely as I begin the short walk home. Aidan grabs my arm and spins me around. "Would you like to go on a date sometime?" He asks… nervously? Is Aiden Gabriels nervous to ask me on a date? Me? A no one rouge? No, I do not want to go on a date with the biggest man whore in the school. I just shake my head at him with an amused look on my face. "Thanks but no." I pull out of his grip and walk towards the gate leaving a stunned Alphas son behind me. It doesn't take him long to shake the shock off and catch up to me."What? Why not? We
'It never fades away, it's staying Your kiss like broken glass on my skinAnd all the greatest loves end in violenceIt's tearing up my voice, left in silence'A knock at the door interrupts my slow dance with my dad. He twirls me and sends me giggling to the door. There's another hard knock. "I'm coming, I'm coming. Keep your knickers on." I shout and open the door. My gigglely state is replaced by shock. "Aidan? What are you doing here?" "Danika Giovanni." He says. "Who's at the door, hun?" My dad shouts. Aidan looks past me and into the house. A growl escaping his lips. What was that? "Just a friend from school dad." I say and pull the door closed behind me. I pull Aidan back down the driveway and back to his car. "Why are you here Aidan? How do you know where I live?" I cross my arms over my chest against the cold. He steps so close to me. "Because, Danika Giovanni, you owe m
"Ice cream after the game?" Jared shouts as he runs and swipes past me."Always!" I shout back as he makes his way out to the field. Jared and I have an after game ritual of ice cream. It all started after he lost his 1st match in 10th grade and was really bummed about it so I took him for ice cream to cheer him up. The team then went through a bad batch and lost every game of the season so I took him for ice cream after every game. The next year, however, the won every game. After his 1st win, Jared took me out for ice cream to celebrate. This then became the tradition. If he lost, I would take him for ice cream and if he won, he would take me for ice cream. I was getting free ice cream tonight. The guys played so well. I was appointed manager because Ben couldn't handle that side of being captain. I love all the guys so I didn't mind much. All the guys left for the party Ben’s throwing and I couldn’t help taking a mo
The party is packed when we arrive. Ben, being the captain, is hosting. Ben loves 2000/early 2010 music so Hey Mama is blasting when we arrived. We walk past all the people on his front lawn and into the back/party central. Jared kisses my cheek before breaking off into the crowd. It’s so dark and so many smells I don’t know who’s who so I grab a bottle off the drinks tabled and started dancing in the middle of the make shift dance floor. 'Rub him downBe a lady and a freak' I love this song. I dance my heart out. Someone comes up behind me and we start dancing together. His hands roamed up and down my side. I move my hips to the music against his every growing excitement. He turns me around and pulls me against his chest, his hands firmly on my hips. His scent hits me hard and I look up to find none other than Dominic Grey. Nick and I had a strange friendship. We always flirt with each other but nothing ever comes of it. To
"It's automatic It's just what they do They say all good boys to heaven But bad boys bring heaven to you" I sing while placing my hair into a milkmaid braid with shaky hands in the bathroom. I’ve been on many dates and I was never nervous before them. Why am I nervous for this one?"What am I?" Nick shouts from my bedroom. We are both rouges by our parents default. Our parents are close friends and business partners and we live right next door from each other which means, more often than not, we are at each others houses. Especially when our parents are on business trips like now. "Bad boy all the way. But you are definitely going to heaven." I walk into the room and kiss him on the top of his head. He wraps his arms around my waist. Sitting on my bed, he is the perfect height to rest his head on my soft C cup boobs. I run my fingers through his hair. "Did I tell you how sorry I am about last night?" He mumbles from be
Danika I love this restaurant. The fist time we came here was when it opened. My dad is part owner so we come here for special occasions. The moment I step in the door, the owner stops his table rounds and comes straight to me for a hug. Mr Castano is an old family friend."Ah Danika! It's been too long. You look stunning. Andreas doesn't she look stunning? Of course you do! You always do! Let me get you a table, hmm!" Mr Castano grabs menus and walks us upstairs to his finest table which looks out over the city. "How's your dad? I heard he's in Italy for business for a month. Did he leave you in that big house for a month? All alone? He should have said, you could come stay with me and Andreas, no? But I'm sure Dominic is staying in the house with you while your parents are away, yes? Please sit sit! I'll make you a chocolate milkshake and bring you up a lasagne, yes! Enjoy your evening Prinsessa!" He leans over to place a soft kiss on the top of
"God this storm is bad." I have to shout so Aidan can hear me. "We need to get off of the road.""My house is close. We can wait it out there." He shouts back without taking his eyes off of what can be seen of the road. We arrive at Aidan's parents house in 5 minutes and pull safely into the garage. Aidan climbs out while I immediately check the weather app on my phone. He opens the door then offers me his hand. I look up at him in excitement. "Did you know that this is the worst snow storm we have EVER had. How cool is that?" I say while taking his hand. He just chuckles and squeezes my hand. His garage leads into a stunning kitchen where his parents sit looking very worried. "Oh thank goddess your home safe." His mother says while rushing to him to wrap him in a huge hug. "We were so worried about you driving in this weather. Weren't we Mark?" His mother turns to his father. "So worried. But you're an excellent drive
'Where's Addy?' I write in my Chem note book and slide it over to Jared. 'She has to be home to welcome their Alphas son home or something.' He slides the note book back."What?" I say aloud and look at him. Hadley Robertson is back. The world slows and everything just stops. Hadley Robertson is back. Hades is back and he'll want my head."Mrs Yatt can I please go to the bathroom?" I ask but my voice sounds so far away. I can't hear her but I can see Mrs Yatt nod her head. I stand and walk out into the deserted hall, looking right then left. My feet take me on autopilot down the hall while I close my eyes and shake my head. 'He can't touch you, he can't touch you, he can't touch you.' I mummer as I walk down the hall.I don’t realise anyone else is in the hall until we bump shoulders. I think I mumble sorry before carrying on outside. The moment the cold wind hits me everything crashes down and then goes into over driv
