chapter #4

"Are you just going to keep staring at me like that?.."

Aaron teasingly tone broke through the silence and I blushed again with a glare,despite not committing the act.

To think I would be staring like that at the Golden boy of the school scratch that to think ,

I would be having this conversation at all is completely not something I thought would be happening, not today; not anyday.

I looked up at him to see him raising an eyebrow at me and unsurprisingly ,

smirking at me again.

I pulled the hem of my shirt, in frustration.

"I wasn't even -"

" Dont worry "-

he interrupted my rant before it could continue , waving it off with his hand.

" I am used to it "

he shrugged his shoulders obnoxiously as if the thought of being 'attractive' is a burden.

I scoffed at his cockiness,

pulling my bag up higher on my shoulder. He watched me intently as I did so.

" Careful Aaron, if your head gets any bigger, you won't be able to fit into those designer shirts of yours."

I grumbled in a dry tone, to which he laughed , looking down to his attire with furrowed brows.

"what do you take me for ?"

He questioned almost , rhetorically and I had just about enough of this long winded conversation, tutting in frustration.

"whats the favour, Aaron?"

I questioned impatiently .

He had to be quicker than this, if he wanted any semblence of help .

I had to go or else I would be late for-

He spoke again interrupting my thoughts

" yeah, I know, its a lot to ask, but I really need your help"

the seriousness in his voice made my heart skip a beat.

Now i was really curious.

Something about his tone sounded distant and somewhat...sad.

"what is it"?

I asked , carefully, the curiosity getting to me.

Although I was curious, I was also scared to the' favour' what might be.

I, myself, hadn't ever had the pleasure of getting to know him .,

but the rumours seemed to be enough to give me a gist of what he was like.

If they were even a little true,

then even I couldn't guarantee his' favour 'would be something in my favour .

He looked in my eyes just then,

my brain tirade ending as gazed into his sapphire- like eyes .

His stare was so intense ,I thought my knees were going to give out.

He opened his mouth to speak but shut it again,

as of he was contemplating how to phrase his sentence.

As if his mind had been made up,

he exhaled slowly before saying the unexpected.

" I need you to be my girlfriend."

""""I was just 13!!!""""

I was just 13 when I had gotten the news-

the news that changed my life.

That was one of the biggest surprises I had ever gotten and I thought nothing would remotely compare to the emotional turmoil I had gone through then.

Now,

what was I hearing a mere 4 and half years later, However, came a close second .

I was going crazy. My emotions were all over the place_ shock, anxiety, confusion, fear and many more that my brain couldn't even comprehend what was going on anymore.

Was this some sort of joke? He could not be serious ,not with something like this..

He was the golden boy, the player ..the bad boy and any other cliche name you could think of for the IT Guy at school.

so for him to ask me this question, out of the blue, I did what any normal person would have done in this situation.

I started choke on my own spit

"" what"" I finally spluttered out.

Aaron raised an elegant eyebrow.
