Aidan, back then...
The news hit me like a punch in the gut. Ivy was going to prom with Aaron. I never thought she would be even interested!
My hands curled into fists.
I wanted to tell her. Demand she cancel with that idiot. But I had no right. Ivy was free to go to prom with whoever she wanted.
Even if it killed me.
I groaned. My chest heaved as I struggled to breathe. The idea of Aaron's hands on Ivy's waist, dancing with her, made me see red. And what if he tried to make a pass at her? Would she let him kiss her?
But I couldn't control her. She was my friend. My only real friend. What if I told her how I felt and she rejected me? It would crush me.
The thought hollowed me out and left me empty and aching.
Fuck...
No, I couldn't just sit back. I needed to make sure Aaron didn't touch Ivy. Maybe I would go to the prom and spy on them.
