Aaron Morris had it all. Good looks, a beautiful girlfriend, good grades in college. He only had one problem. He was being stalked by a red-haired nightmare otherwise known as Bella Davis! She was the bane of his existence, a thorn on his side who won't leave him alone no matter what. Will he ever get rid of her or will she continue to annoy him with her unrequited love?*This is the spin-off of The Ugly One but can be read as a stand alone novel. However, I recommended you read that one first :)*
View MoreThe first semester of college...
I looked in the mirror and found myself staring at the more mature and grown-up version of myself. Or at least, that's what I think I am. Of course, Macie would disagree and call me immature at times, but we both knew that I was ten times more mature between me and my brother Jake.
Macie would always scold me for talking shit about Jake. She thinks I still hold a grudge against him for stealing my girl last year.
Jane...
To be honest, I was pissed and hurt, but I fully got over it after a while. Because I, Aaron Morris, am not the type to whine and cry over a girl. I was far better than that. I decided to move on with my life. There is plenty of fish in the sea, right?
Besides, it wasn't like I had a hard time finding a girlfriend. I wasn't a bad looking guy. In fact, many girls found my tousled brown hair, bright green eyes, and muscular physique quite attractive. Some say I am charming, which is why it wasn't hard for me to replace Jane. Macie practically fell on my lap, and she is crazy about me. At least, that's what I think.
"Dude, are you done checking yourself out yet? We get it. You are soooo good-looking!" Jake yelled from the room next to me.
"Fuck you, Jake!" I yelled. I love my brother, but he was all in my business and that could get old at times.
I heard Jane giggle from his room. Those two were practically joined by the hips. Even I couldn't help but think they were good together. Sometimes I got jealous, but mostly I thought it was cute.
As far as Macie goes, she was gorgeous and we've been dating for three months now, but I still wasn't sure if I was in love with her not. I guess only time can tell.
I came out of the bathroom and gave Jake a dirty look, then headed outside. I didn't want to be late on my first day.
"Aaron!"
I halted as I heard the dreaded voice of my annoying neighbor. The bane of my existence.
I cringed and rummaged inside my pocket and frantically searched for my keys. I needed to get the fuck out of here before she catches up to me. I finally got the key out and proceeded to open the door, but someone pulled on my sleeve.
I turned around to look at the smiling face of my red-headed nightmare.
Bella Davis...
"What?" I barked.
The smile on her face disappeared. "You don't have to be so mean this early in the morning," she pouted and looked at me with those big blue eyes.
I felt a little bad for being harsh, but at the same time, I've dealt with enough of her bullshit.
"Sorry. What can I do for you, Bella? I need to go soon," I said.
"I was wondering if I can ride with you? I have a class today too," she said, smiling again. It didn't take much for her to recover, huh.
Oh fuck...I forgot she enrolled at the same college as me. Most likely to stalk me some more. She is like a parasite I couldn't get rid of.
"No way! I don't want you near me. I have a girlfriend now, Bella. You need to stop clinging to me every chance you get and back off," I said irritably.
"But Aaron..." she started to say.
"No buts. I'm out of here," I said and shut the door.
She knocked on my window.
"What now?" I said and opened it.
"I made you some lunch," she took out a lunch box and put it on my lap.
"I don't want this," I said.
"But it's your favorite! I woke up extra early to make this for you. So just take it, please? Or I'll keep bothering you about it," she grinned.
"Jeez...fine. Just this once," I said irritably and took the box, then proceeded to close the window.
"Oh okay, I'll see you in college then!" Bella chirped.
"NO!" I cried and drove away. I hope she is not going to be a pain this semester.
"Shit, you are drenched. Let's get you out of this dress," I said."You just want me to get naked, so you can take advantage of me," Bella giggled."I'm just trying to look out for you. Get your mind out of the gutter," I chuckled and flicked her forehead. She yelped and rubbed her forehead.
Bella's POVI inhaled the sweet smell of his cologne as he held me against his body. I couldn't look him in the eyes and tell him I didn't love him and didn't want to be with him. It was impossible, and it would've been a lie.I almost yelled at him again but stopped as Jake and Jane walked in.
"Don't talk to her again," Bella ordered as we stopped in front of my car."Who? Sally?" I said."Sally or Bridget or whatever her name is. Just stay away from her," she said."Why, are you jealous?" I smirked.
I smirked as Bella kept stealing glances at me during the rehearsal dinner. I purposely sat apart from her, but on her opposite side.Things turned slightly sour once my dad and stepmom arrived. I could feel the air of hostility between Bella and him this time. Funny how I never noticed it before.I approached him after dinner. "Hey dad, there's something we need to discuss. About Bella," I said.
Bella's POV"UUGGHH!" I screamed in frustration."Um...okay...I won't pick Lilies as my wedding flowers if it's that much of a problem to you," Jane commented."No...it's not you. I am just...so frustrated! Ugh!" I exclaimed.
"Leave me alone!" Bella tried to avoid my question and get out of bed, but I pushed her back down. She is not going anywhere without giving me some answers."Not before you tell me what's going on? You almost killed me, for fuck's sake!" I exclaimed."I wasn't going to let you die," she said as she struggled underneath me.
Bella's POVI couldn't talk to Bridget. She saw me approaching and ran away.I met Bridget at the hospital. We became best friends in a short amount of time, but then she was released earlier. We kept in touch afterward for a little while, but then she suddenly stopped talking to me. I see her in my area now, but she didn't even bother to contact me? I felt suspicious.
"Whoa...this cabin is freaking awesome!" Jake exclaimed."Except for that," one of his college buddy Shawn pointed at the moose head that hung on the wall, staring at us accusingly."I think it's kind of cool. The owner must've been a hunter," I shrugged.
"I don't know what to say. There must be some mistake. I didn't put that picture there. Why would I!" I exclaimed.My boss watched my face intently. I bet I looked like I was on the verge of tears. This was my job. Sure it was only a desk job at the moment, but it had the potential to become more."You've been a reliable employee since day one, which is why I'm having a hard time believing you could do something so childish lik
