chapter #3

I was surprised to say the least.

my eyebrows furrowed in confusion

" you" I motioned towards his lean body before continuing.

" Need a favour from me?"I ended the question with my eyebrows raised

" Thats what I said, right ?"He shot back, his eyebrows raised in a similar manner.

My eyebrows furrowed deeper when he replied .

i was beyond confused.

"W- what?" I stuttered . what kind of favour would a person like him need from person like me

Aaron frowned slightly ,raising a slender eyebrow.

"I' d thought you 'd be smarter then this" he muttered more to himself than me.

" Excuse me for not being psychic" I retorted ,glaring at Aaron with all the resentment I could muster .

Rather than faltering at my gaze , however, Aaron simply laughed at this ,

my frustration growing even more by this simple action.

All of a sudden, he placed his hand on my shoulder , his blue gaze levelling with my own and I narrowed my eyes at the touch..

" I ...need ...a... favour ... from ...you..."

Aaron enunciated his words slowly as if he was talking to a five year old kid ;

even going as far as to make gestures with his hand as he did so.

I gaped incredulously and swatted his hand away.,

offended by his condescending tone.

" I know what you meant !" I whisper- shouted ,

making sure to not attract attention from other people in the hallway .

He opened his mouth to speak, but I cut him -off, holding his hand up to his face.

"And in regards to your' favour' let me answer before you ask it - its a no"

I snapped putting the emphasis on the word 'favour '

He smiled at this slightly, his lips quirking up slowly " But you don't even know what I was about to ask?"

He questioned curiously before leaning his left shoulder against the neighbouring locker.

I grimaced at his relaxed stance before clearing my throat and straightening my posture.

" Well its not hard to read you ,knowing your reputation, I either had to do your homework or sleep with you and I feel inclined to say no to both"

I let out ,turning my head slightly up

In his eyes, I may be viewed as low end of his constructed social heirarchy .

But all that meant nothing to me

He simply blinked after my words taking in mini speech before breaking into a fit of laughter.

My anger grew in that split of second as i glared at him.

yet either he took no notice or ignored it,stroking a rough hand through his hair.

" sleep with me? that is definitely not what I meant "

he managed to say between laughs.

I rolled my eyes in an act of annoyance yet I could feel my cheeks heating up in embarrassment .

I hadn't meant to insinuate

that;

I had just meant that to offer him a scathing reply.

yet now I couldn't help but feel slightly offended that such a notion could be considered laughable and

I shook my head to clear the familiar hit to my self esteem,

looking up to see Aaron smirking up to me.

"That wasn't the favour I was going to ask , but if that was the first thing that came up to your mind, I think I can arrange something. "

he spoke in a joking voice, leaning in closer to my body .

He raised an eyebrow and winked teasingly .

I blused profusely at his words before recomposing myself and pushed him back by his shoulders.

He didn't even stumble , yet he got the message and moved back , the smirk still in place.

" Woah ,hold your horses, Romeo. If I do ever think of you, it won't be good things trust me"

I grumbled, eyeing his closeform in disdain ...

Never before had I let anyone else to be that close to me proximity, so The Golden boy was no exception

instead of being fazed at my blatant insult to his reputation .

Aaron smirked again, an action that I begrudgingly accepted suited him far too well.

wait what?..

His voice interrupted my thoughts

" Hold your horses ? .. Does that line still exists ? ...

He raised an eyebrow questioningly at my choice of words.

I scowled at him yet, instead of giving him a befitting reply with a heavey dose of sarcasm,

I merely rolled my eyes.

Such an answer was all he deserved.
