Chapter 10
Roxanne POV
Great thanks to stupid Rachel being the jealous bitch she is Aiden thinks I don't like him.
When I actually feel the complete opposite towards him.
My sister always has to ruin things. Getting mad when she didn't get her way.
I wanted to tell Aiden that I liked him I really did but there were 2 things stopping me.
One, in two months I would be having my 18th birthday; the day I would be finding out who my mate is.
So if I tell Aiden I like him and we start dating I may end up finding out I'm destined to be with a whole other person a couple months later.
Secondly, I was scared of him rejecting me which would make me die of embarrassment.
Why did liking someone have to be so frustrating I was driving myself crazy.
What if he doesn't like me? What if he just sees us as friends?
"Stop being such a wuss" My conscious said rolling her eyes at me.
I could have sworn your consciousness was supposed to be nice to you but whatever.
Anyways I was stuck between the motion of heading to my door but then I'd just go sit on my bed.
Maybe I should wait until the morning because I doubt you confess liking someone at 11:37 at night.
I sighed, shaking my head at myself before laying into bed.
I was trying to sleep but my body was too anxious; ready to just go talk to Aiden.
Soon I was able to finally go to sleep happy the darkness finally accepted my invitation.
I woke up grabbing my clothes hurrying to the bathroom.
I showered, deciding to wait until after our chores were done to tell him.
I had my group of hunters behind me trudging into the forest.
I ran towards a deer ready to pounce until suddenly an image of Aiden came to mind making me ram into a tree.
I howled painfully rubbing my nose. Great, I was totally going to tell him right after this.
Once I finished with hunting I shifted back to my human form wandering around the house looking for Aiden.
I didn't know what chore he had to do today so it was going to be hard to find him.
I knocked on his room door, checked the bathroom, and even the front yard.
Wait, maybe he was in the garden. My mom did say she needed someone she trusted to water her babies while she was out doing a fundraiser.
I walked towards the backyard and nearly did a flip once I saw him.
My mom must really like Aiden to actually trust him enough near her flowers.
I wonder what dad thought of him. You could never really tell what he was thinking by his facial expressions because he lacked them.
He was also always busy so I don't even think he knows I like him unlike everyone else.
I walked towards him smiling happily. I was finally going to be able to tell him.
"Hey Aiden" I yelled, approaching him. He turned with the hose which was still on splashing me with cold water.
I stood there shocked by the icy water covering every inch of my skin.
He dropped the hose running towards me frantically with a look of pure horror on his face.
"I'm so sorry...are you okay?" He asked and I nodded, shivering furiously.
I wobbled into the house heading upstairs with a sigh. I guess it would have to wait until I got changed.
After showering and changing my clothes I made sure everything was safe.
No hoses should be in the house so....check.
No chores to distract me and dinner wasn't until another hour from now so...check.
No train or bus was near me and able to hit me so...check.
No trees for me to run into so check for that also.
I was now positive nothing could go wrong and I was safe to now tell Aiden.
I headed to his room knocking on his door gently.
I felt my heartbeat start to accelerate once I heard his footsteps come towards the door.
"Hey Roxy, sorry for earlier" He said rubbing the back of his neck.
He looked so cute by just doing that one simple gesture.
Snap out of it Roxanne and just tell him. This is not the time to be all heart eyed.
"I need to tell you something important" I said and he nodded.
He stepped aside letting me into his room allowing me to sit on his bed.
"Is there something wrong" He asked worriedly and I shook my head happy by how kind he was despite the lie my sister told him..
"No it's something I have to tell you so can you listen first and tell me what you think afterwards?' I asked and he nodded.
I took a deep breath glad I was finally able to let this out.
"I like you Aiden. I have for a while and I wanted to tell you the other day when I came by, but you know my sister lied to you telling you that I didn't like you" I said.
He stared at me wide eyed, his mouth a gape looking a little shocked.
Was that a good thing or bad thing? I wasn't really sure but in my case I hoped it was good.
"Are you being serious?" He finally asked snapping out of whatever trance he was in.
I nodded and a smile broke out unto Aiden's face, the biggest one I've ever seen.
"I can't believe it. I thought you would never like me the wayl like you" He said and I smiled at him.
That's all I pretty much did because I didn't know what else you're supposed to do when you tell someone you like them.
Looking into his eyes which were finally filled with happiness for once made me even happier.
I liked him so much and it made me happy knowing he felt the same way.
As we both gazed at each other I realized by the way I was stuck in his gaze what I could do.
Something I would never normally do but I would do it to him.
I leaned up pressing my lips against his as he stood there frozen with shock.
He finally registered what was going on and kissed me back.
I smiled, what a good way to tell the shy boy you like him might as well give him a reason to be speechless.[
