Who was the person Kayden was dreaming about earlier? Was it his girlfriend? Does he have a girlfriend?
That is all I can think about as I look at the screen. Mason was taking a phone call in Kayden’s room right now. And Kayden was sitting beside me. We are silently eating our pizza and watching the movie. But I can feel him glancing at me every once in a while.
Does he have a lover? Was he in love with someone?
I don’t know why but all I have been able to think about since the past hour was about him. It’s like he has taken over my brain. I don’t know why but I think I have started getting comfortable around him. And I know that there is heartbreak in the end if I don’t stop myself right here. But I can’t stop thinking about him.
“Kay?” I say witho
“So, these are my people. Caroline, Sebastian, Gabriel, Melanie and Jared.” I tell Kayden as I point each of my friends out in the picture frame that was in his hand. He had requested me to at least show him their pictures when Mason left. So, I retrieved the picture frame that was in my room. “Okay. So, who does what?” He asks. He was sitting down on the floor with his back towards the couch where I was sitting as I mindlessly played with his hair. “Me and Seb are the singers though the others join in sometimes but we are the lead. Besides that, I play the keyboard and Seb plays the guitar. Caroline is the main guitarist. She plays the electric guitar. Gabe is the drummer; Melanie plays the keyboard and Jared plays the bass.” I tell him. I smile at the picture frame. It was the first picture that came out of us as a band. It was when we were still in high school. “Then who writes the songs?” Kayden asks as he frowns. “The awesome girl who is now roaming around with your last name.
"So, how long have you known my best friend?" Caroline asks me. She's been here for an hour already. Mason and her had instantly hit it off and Aviana was happy to see how Caroline hasn't tried to murder me yet.Aviana told me how Caroline wasn't happy with the marriage and she didn't necessarily like me either. According to Aviana, Caroline was intimidating but she was a really nice person when you really get to know her. But till now, she was still trying to judge me."I’ve known about her since before. I saw her around when we were preparing for my brother's wedding but I really am getting to know her now." I answer honestly as I glance at Aviana. She just smiles at me before she looks back at the TV screen. She was deciding on what to watch.I can't help but notice how adorable she looks. She is wearing a
"Aviana?" I call out, knocking lightly on her door. It's been about an hour since Caroline and Mason left. And I can't take it anymore. I have to see her face. I have to make sure that she's alright. Right now, my brain and my heart both are telling me to reach out to her.I just have to reach out to her…"Come in." She speaks up in her soft voice from inside the room. I hesitantly open the door and look around the room.The walls of the room are plain white in colour but she's made that look not so plain with a colourful feather drawn on one of the walls while the other had about a hundred picture frames of different size placed close to each other to make a heart shape. Her plain dark wooden desk is nicely arranged with a few folders on the side and a cute pencil-stand and her laptop. Her room looked clean and kind of lively. It felt like a fresh breath of air in front of my plain and dead room. Though it wasn't as big as my room, it looked a lot better. It was big but not lonely
"I am bored!" I whine, slumping in my seat in the cafeteria. I sigh as I place my head on Gabriel's shoulder. "And I am sleepy." I say, closing my eyes.Gabe huffs at my dramatic display."Were you watching a movie last night?" Jared asks. I open my eyes to find him eating fries from my tray.This monster!I slap his hand away, sitting up.Doesn’t this guy know that you should never steal Aviana’s food?!"I was but that's not the point. We haven't gone somewhere to hang out and just have fun for a long time!" I say before I start eating the fries.Ever since the protest, the food quality
"Aviana!" I was laughing at what Ryan had said when I heard someone calling out for me. I turn to the direction of the voice to find Kayden and Mason coming towards us.Me and my friends had been standing here with Ryan Peterson himself. He claimed that we were the best group of people amongst all the others at the party.Now, if that isn’t flattering, I don’t know what is…"Mason!" Caroline exclaims before she rushes to Mason with a big smile on her face. Mason and Caroline both hug each other while me and my friends laugh.They’re just so cute!And it’s refreshing to see Caroline being like this, this happy and excited, with someone. And that too, someone nice like Mason.I’m so damn happy for them!"Mr. Knight! It's so nice to see you." Ryan says, extending his hand to Kayden for a handshake. Kayden shakes his hand with a slight, formal nod."Happy Birthday, Mr. Peterson." Kayden says in a business-like tone. I look at their exchange and frown.That was so… dry!"That's what you
I leave my room to go to work when I hear a familiar sweet laughter coming from the kitchen, making me frown. Wasn’t she supposed to be in college by now? I make my way to the kitchen to find her sitting at the breakfast bar on her chair, laughing at something with Martha. I’m awestruck as I take in her. She is wearing a plain black summer dress which comes to her mid-thigh with a pair of knee-length heeled boots. Dear good lord!When she looks at me, she waves at me with her usual grin."Good Morning, Kayden!" She says when I reach her. She stands up and wraps her arms around my neck, shocking me. I quickly recover from the shock and wrap my arms around her waist. "I missed you." she mumbles.Ever since the party almost two weeks ago, we haven't really seen each other. She was busy all week and so was I. I even worked on weekends to keep myself busy. I didn't even see her in the morning because she was either getting ready or she was at her rehearsals. And I won't lie, I really d
As the doors of the lift open, I quickly press the buttons to take me back up to the penthouse. I can’t just leave Aviana like that. I have to prove to her that I am not a monster, that I am not a beast. I have to apologize for what I said when my brain wasn’t working. She was just trying to help! Why on earth did I shout at her like that? What might she be thinking about me now!? I have to make everything alright. I have to do something fast!I rush back into the house. Martha looks at me with a startled expression as I enter the kitchen in search of Aviana. She gives me a knowing smile as she recovers from her shock. Right. Aviana went to her room…I awkwardly nod at Martha, who is smirking at me now, before I walk towards Aviana’s room.“Aviana?” I call out as I knock on her door. I stand there patiently. The rooms in the house are soundproof so I am not able to hear anything happening inside the room. After a minute, I knock on the door again.The door opens to reveal a ver
I open my eyes to find my face resting on Kayden’s muscular chest, his arm wrapped tightly around my waist. I look up at his face to see a peaceful expression on his face. It is still a little too early in the morning, so there isn’t much light but I can still see his face clearly. I reach up to touch his cheek when I feel him stirring in his sleep. I pull my hand back and look down, pretending to be asleep.Did I wake him up?Darn it!If he finds out that I’ve been staring at him in his sleep, he’ll surely think that I’m a creep!“I know you are up.” I hear his deep husky voice which contains a hint of humour. I sheepishly look up into his deep green eyes, making him chuckle. “Good Morning, princess.” He says in a husky whisper. I feel the heat creeping up to my cheeks at the endearment but I maintain my composure as I look directly into his eyes.I am Aviana the great! I am not one who gets embarrassed easily. I am someone who embarrasses people with ease!And I’ll show that to h
“Okay, don’t be angry but I kinda really need your help.” I hear Aviana’s sweet voice whispering as soon as I put the phone to my ear. Wow! This must be the first time that she has called me and to say that I’m not shocked would be a big fat lie. And she needs my help… At least that means that she trusts me to some extent. “Hello to you too! Where are you and what kind of help are you talking about?” I say as a smile instantly forms on my face. I cannot help but smile with her. Nowadays, just her voice or her face or even a thought about her is enough for a smile to form on my face. See ho
“What are you doing now?” I ask when I hear the loud background noise as Aviana picks up my call. I can hear people shouting in the background and it sounds like a big crowd. I smile as I think about how serious she was last time about protesting about French fries.This girl is seriously unlike anyone I've ever met!“Hey! I am not the one who got all these people here! It was Jared!” She says in a defensive tone.I can almost imagine the pout she must be sporting right at this moment. I chuckle and shake my head.“What is happening there?” I ask her. I hear some shuffling from the other end before the background voices become a little lesser. Aviana sighs tiredly on the other end before she replies.“Jared got a project in which he’s making a small movie with a friend. Half of the movie is completed so they had to gather a little crowd to see it. That idiot told everyone that our band will be singing live and now almost the whole college is here. Even a few teachers are here.” Sh
“I can’t believe it!” I suddenly speak up as I stare at my phone screen in shock. It is five minutes past midnight which means it is Monday already. “What happened?” Kayden asks as he looks at me with a frown. Kayden and I are sitting on the couch with his arm wrapped around my shoulder and my head placed on his chest as I lean on him while we watch the live drama. The live drama being Mason and Caroline arguing with each other on the floor in front of us about something I don't remember. I'm pretty sure that they themselves don't remember why they started arguing in the first place. After breakfast, the four of us decided to spend some time together so after we all got home, took our shower and got ready, we went to a fair. We enjoyed it a lot and we were tired but it wasn’t too late so we came back to Kayden’s penthouse to chill. We watched two movies before we started talking about random things. We were all laughing and joking around, having fun. I didn't even reali
