“So what do you want to know about my past relationships?” he asks and I chew my lips trying to figure out the most less obvious one.
“How come they never lasted beyond three months?” I finally ask.
“Someone’s been googling me huh?” he asks and I nearly choke on my wine in an attempt to defend myself.
“I haven’t, Cameron did though and he read some of the information he saw to me.”
“When?”
Taking a deep breath I bite the inside of my cheek “The next day after we first..” I begin trailing off.
“Made out in my car?” he asks and I instantly turn red, “You don’t have to be so casual about it.” I mutter.
“Three months is how long I can take before I grow tired of them, plus t

“Thanks for a wonderful evening.” I tell Aiden as he walks me to the door of the cafe and waits while I unlock it. “I had a great time with you Hadley.” He murmurs while I try to still my shaking hands and frantic heart long enough for me to open the door. Giving up, I turn to him sighing and he chuckles before taking the key from my hands and opening the door. “Thanks again.” I murmur but still not moving, and he nods waiting for me. Exchanging the feet that’s balancing my weight, I bite my lip and a soft growl from Aiden has me releasing them and finally speaking. “I don’t usually do this, but would you want to come inside for coffee? Or tea, you know you being originally British and all, but if you don’t want either choice there’s always cold beer, I’m sure I’ve got some from the last time we watched the match at my

“There’s your man..” Cam says for the tenth time today as Aiden passes and I frown “He’s not my man Cameron so please stop saying that before anyone else hears you and get ideas that they shouldn’t be getting.” I say smacking the back of his head as I pass. “He’s not your man but you let him mark you.” He states in a matter of fact tone and my hand immediately go to my neck. “Haa‼ you just proved my point that you let him mark you because your concealer game is on point.” He says and I throw a dishtowel at him which he catches “You’re an ass.” I state and he grins.“I’m you’re favourite ass though.” He argues and I scoff, “Not anymore, now you’re just a plain ass.” I retort and he hums “That may be but I’m a fine piec

“Does anyone know about this place?” I ask turning to Aiden and he shakes his head, “So how’d you know about it?” I question and he shrugs.“This was one of the first locations I did a movie in as a boy, during breaks like this, I’d wander about to get away from everything and one day I stumbled upon here and the rest they say is history.” He explains and I smile “So this is like your secret hideout?” I ask and he nods. “Kind of, but it’s a secret hideout that I’m willing to share with you.” He says and I grin “For your kindness, you shall be repaid with this doughnut.” I say handing it to him and he bursts out laughing. “What else did you manage to carry in those pockets?” he asks biting into the doughnut and spi

I walked uncertainly into the cafe where Aiden had asked that we meet, so that in case of anything the press won’t be able to trace me. I was pleased to know that he was thinking of things like that and at the same time nervous because he had indirectly acknowledged that there was a chance that we could be caught together and it’ll blow up in our faces. Smoothing out my sundress, I sit in a booth close to the window and look out. Admittedly it was too much of a beautiful day to be wasted outside. You could hear the hussle and bustle from outside as the music that was played in the cafe became a background music in the scene that was the world outside. “Shall I take your order?” a voice asks and I turn back to see a young pregnant waitress smi

“How’d you find that cafe?” I ask Aiden as we walk on the sidewalk, “Ross gets my coffee and his team from there. He did mention something about a poor girl and an abusive bastard. It just clicked now.” He says and I nod before asking “So their coffee is to your taste?’ and at that he laughs before wrapping his arm around my waist and moving me closer to his side. “It used to be,but not anymore.” He says and I hum,. “Is my new face appealing?” he asks and I turn to look up at him. He had straightened out his curls and tIed into a short ponytail and was sporting a scruffy beard. The stud that used to be on his ear was no longer there a d his emerald green eyes were now a startling shade of blue, but he was still as hot as always. Running my hands through his beards I look up at him, "It’d take sometime to get used to your blue eyes, but still it’s appealing. Not

“What’d you want to do now?” Aiden asks and I look around the carnival, we had ridden the horse carousel admidst the stares; Aiden’s idea by the way, gone on several ferris wheels, eaten lots of candies and pastries which was my idea, gone on the water slides and now we just emerged from the hunted mansion which even though I know it’s fake still scared me enough to hold on to Aiden all through. “That bus ride..” I say but my tone implies that it’s more of a question and he scrunches his nose, “Then what do you want to do?” I question and he gives me a wolfish grin, “A lot of things.” He says and I swallow, “Aiden..” I warn and he gives an exasperated sigh. “Fine then. Let’s do that.” He says pointing to a man who’s shooting at targets and I

"Are you still mad?" I ask as I unlock my door but he remains quiet. "Alright,your still mad." I mutter as I open the door and step in.The moment the door is locked behind us, Aiden spins me around quickly pressing my back against the door. "I don't like seeing other guys flirting with you." He murmurs staring down at me and I swallow at how low his voice is. "But I didn't flirt back and we're not even...." I begin but drift off, "Aren't you going to finish your sentence?" He asks or more like dares as his hands move under my skirt and he starts tracing his finger at the back of my legs and I shiver. "You're mine Hadley.." he begins as his hands go higher, "Not that bloke at the carnival, not that guy at the restaurant or every other guy that kept on staring

“You’re here again.” Beverly says as she approaches me to hand over the menu and I shrug. “I did say that I’ll be in touch didn’t I?” I ask and she shrugs, “Two weeks ago.” She murmurs and I shrug, “I’ve been kinda busy that’s why I took so long. Won’t you take a sit?” I ask and she turns back to look at the cash register where Donnie’s sitting and glaring. “I’m on the clock.” She says slowly as she shifts her weight from one foot to the other. “Hey Donnie, you won’t mind if Beverly here took some time to rest now, will you?” I yell at him and he says nothing…at least nothing comprehensible enough for me to understand. “Well that’s settled. Now come and sit, I brought s
