Chapter 75
We spent the rest of the night discussing and teasing each other before he finally left by 3am. He really had nothing to loose since he was a guy. Wandering the streets of New York by such a time is something only a crazy person like Aiden would do.
I went back to sleep few minutes after he left, only to be woken up by my mother’s call. More like yells.
“Olivia!” She only made use of my full name when she’s angry or extremely pissed.
“Get your ass here now!” She yelled again. I immediately got off the bed and made my way down to the living room where my mom sat alongside my Dad.
“Morning Mum, Dad” I greeted as I approached them. They both had a disapproving look on their faces as they glared at me.
“Who were you with last night?”She scowled and placed the coffee mug which she was holding, neatly on the side stool beside her.
“Uhmmm…… Me?” I feigned ignorance.
“Do not lie to me Olivia, I know you too well, you were with someone last night, I’m hundred percent sure of it because I heard voices coming from your room last night” They both shot me a disapproving glare.
“Yeah…. I was…. Uhm…. I was with….”
“She was with me” I heard a familiar voice say from behind me. We all turned to see Aiden standing by the door. We must have been so busy with this little parent to daughter interrogation that we hadn’t noticed Aiden’s presence.
The guts of this boy. Now he’s made it all worse.
“Hi Mr and Mrs Henderson”He said with a charming smirk plastered on his face as he approached us.
“Hello Aiden” My Dad flashed him a blank stare.
“Aiden, may I know why you were in the room with Liv last night?” My mum asked, her face void of emotion.
“Yeah I just dropped by to say hi, we had a few things to talk about”He said casually. His honesty will always be the same. So brutal….
Unlike Alex….
My stupid subconscious mind informed me yet again.
Get out of my head Alex!
“Oh…. I see” Was all my mum could say.
“So do you have any problem with that?” He said with equal tone as my mum’s.
“No…. Not at all” The scowl on her face had magically turned into a smile.
She’s always been fond of Aiden in the past so it didn’t surprise me that they got along so well. Though they spoke weirdly to each other all the time. Let me just say…. Aiden is her perfect match when it comes to being sarcastic and…. Serious?
“If you’d excuse me, Liv and I are supposed to be at my place with Nana” He said casually like it wasn’t a big deal.
If only he knew the interrogation that awaits me later on.
I’ll so kill you Aiden.
“You are?” My mum asked at the same time I said “We are?”
“Of course, you’ve probably forgotten. Always so forgetful” He shot me a knowing smirk to which I gritted my teeth as I fixed him with a glare.
‘You’re dead meat’ I mouthed at him but he blatantly ignored me as his stupid mouth continued talking.
“Go and get ready so long, I’ll be waiting down here for you” He smirked.
“Of…. Course” I faked a smile and left the living room.
On getting to my room, I immediately took a quick shower and changed into a simple blue t-shirt and grey pants. I tied my hair neatly into a bun and applied mascara, powder and lip gloss. Once I was satisfied with my looks, I made my way out of the room with my phone and purse in hand.
“Glad you’re back, let’s go” He smiled as his eyes raked over me deliciously like I was the last piece of pizza in the box.
My mum was the only one in the living room now, my Dad must have gone up to his room. I smiled at my mum nervously as I spoke.
“We’re leaving mum”
She smiled back at me before saying “Sure sweetie, be safe”
Well…. that’s a surprise.
Not really though.
“Come on let’s go”He said and then faced my mum who just sat there with a magazine in hand. “see you later bae”He said to her. She fixed him with a glare instantly and said. “, Alright, have fun you two”
There’s this weird bond my mum and Aiden has always had. Back then when we were still dating, he’d come over occasionally and they’ll both discuss, laugh, tease each other. At times we watch movies together or help my mum with kitchen stuff. But the atmosphere between them was tense this time. Probably because of what happened in the past which was all her fault. She must still be feeling guilty whereas Aiden has overlooked it. That’s how kindhearted he can be. Just like his Granny.
“Bye mum” I waved at her and she waved back. We both headed towards the door and made our way out.
Once we were outside, I pulled Aiden’s hand which was encircled around mine away and fixed him with a nasty glare.
“What was that for!” I yelled with a frown.
“What?” He pretended.
“What you just did in there” I scowled.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about ma’am” He smirked.
“Of course you do you dimwit! Why did you have to agree that you were with me last night, you’ve made thing’s worse!” I was pissed. Extremely pissed.
“Chillax, nothing will happen, your mum won’t say anything to you I promise” He smirked.
“And what makes you think that?” I rolled my eyes.
“Because I’m awesome, hot, handsome and she definitely owes me an apology. Did you see her face? The least she could do for me now is to let me be with you since you’re back. There’s no way I’m letting go of you again Liv” He said with all seriousness. I searched his eyes for any signs of a joke but there was none. He was damn serious.
“Whatever” I scoffed.
“You know you still love me” He teased.
“No I don’t!” I chuckled.
“Of course you do” He laughed.
“No I don’t! God, stop!” I laughed for no reason.
“We’ll see about that” He smirked as we both made it out of my lawn.
“Liv!” I heard Hailey’s familiar voice yell from across the street. We both turned to see her run towards us.
“Hey Liv, Aiden” She said breathlessly.
“Hey, what’s up” Aiden said as he put both his fingers into his pocket.
“Hey babe” I know I’m supposed to be upset with her but I just can’t.
“Liv, I know you’re still angry with me, I’m sorry, please just hear me out already, I kept calling you since but you weren’t picking my calls” She said with all seriousness.
“It’s fine, let’s just put this all aside” I gave her a soft smile.
“Really” Her eyes twinkled with joy.
“Yeah” I beamed.
“So, that means you forgive me?” She asked.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Of course baby” I chuckled and she came crashing into my chest as she pulled me into a fight hug.
Too…. Tight….
“Oh thank you!” She squeaked.
“Y… ou…. A…. re…. W…. el…. C… ome…. Can… t…. breath” I said breathlessly and then she pulled away from me immediately.
“Omg I’m so sorry” She immediately apologized.
“It’s okay” I grinned.
“Where are you both going to?” She asked.
“To see Nana, if you’ll excuse us” Aiden took my hand in his.
“Aiden!” I scowled.
“Jerk!” She frowned at him.
“I bet your as….”
“Aiden” I shot him a warning glare.
“Pardon my manners” He rolled his eyes.
“You can come with us Hay” I smiled at her.
“Certainly not!” Aiden protested.
These two will always be cat and rat. He’s probably angry with her for telling me about his activities.
“Aiden!” I warned and he kept his mouth shut.
“It’s okay Liv, I wasn’t planning on joining you guys, I’m babysitting Jason today so I can’t join you guys” She said with a smile and then faced Aiden “Just so you know, if I really do want to come to your place, I’ll come and no one will stop me” She glared at him with equal venom.
“You guys should cut the hate already” I said to them.
“No one’s hating here, just tell her to start minding her own business” Aiden said.
“Well I’ll mind my business the day you keep your prick in your pants” She said back to him.
“And you can keep your little pussy out of……”
“Aiden!”
“Sorry” He muttered.
“He’s really insane…. So stupid” Hailey laughed.
“Yeah right” He also started laughing. I can never understand these two.
“Okay Liv, see you guys later” Hailey said with a smile.
“Okay Hay, see you around” I beamed at her and she waved and left.
“Come on, let’s go…. No stopping by again” Aiden said as he took my hand in his.
“Yes daddy” I teased.
“What did you just call me?” He rolled his eyes.
“Daddy?” I grinned.
“Cool…. I like it, call me that again and watch me fuck you here and now” He said playfully.
“You wouldn’t dare” I laughed.
“Call me that one more time. I dare you” He said with a serious tone and I didn’t say anything again as we walked towards his house.
Once he wasn’t paying attention, I let go of his hand and squeaked “Daddy” I took on my heels.
