Mae's Boyfriend
Aaron stood up surprised at the way Mae just removed her hands from his. He followed her line of sight to find her staring at some amazingly hot guy.
He had ash air, black eyes and tall body frame. The guy met his gaze and glared at him as if marking his territory, he smiled warmly.
Did Mae get a boyfriend while he was away. Should he blackmail her to not tell his little brother about her relationship with someone else and then she wouldn't tell anyone he was at the states?
He bent over to her ear and whispered softly. " Mae, did you get yourself a boyfriend?", he asked for Mabel to realize she had been staring for too long.
She blushed at his question and Aaron's eyes lit up like fireworks at her cute expression. She shook her head and with her index finger to her mouth, told him to shush.
" Hi Holden! What are you doing there?", Mabel asked to have Holden break away from his trance. He quickly put on a small smile and walked over to her.
" I thought I should tell you that Megan is waiting for you out in the parking lot but then you were busy so, obviously couldn't", Holden said and stared at Aaron.
It was actually the truth though, Megan was actually in the parking lot dressed in pajamas with red circles under her eyes like she didn't get any sleep while Jace was out comforting her, he didn't even know what was going on.
He just found a chance to go say something to Mabel so he quickly grabbed it. Their tutoring had long ended since Mabel had finally gotten her extra credits and he was a tad ok in Literature so there was no reason to hang out anymore.
" Brownie won't you introduce us?", he asked for Aaron to quickly rush out with a warm smile on his face.
" Hello Mate! Am Aaron Gregory and you must be Holden", Aaron said bringing out a warm hand for a handshake with Holden but Mabel knew Holden was a total snob so he might not even accept it.
He only asked for an introduction, he didn't request to get too familiar. She could even tell he was upset about something.
She told Aaron to shush so why wouldn't he just do as told. Silly her, she forgot she was talking to stupid overbearing Aaron who always did the opposite of what you wanted.
Surprisingly, Holden accepted Aaron's handshake with a smile and introduced himself properly. " I'm Holden Langford, you look new, are you some transfer student?", he asked striking a conversation with the said Aaron to have Aaron smile.
Mae's boyfriend wasn't bad but he was jealous. He was just trying to act like the bigger person in front of Mabel and not show that he was uncomfortable with him being around, Aaron chuckled.
" Holden you said something about Megan in the parking lot, could you take me there?", Mabel asked stopping every chance of this two having a relationship. She had to figure out how to get Aaron back to Europe or at least notify his parents about him being in the states.
Holden looked at her confused, she obviously knew where the parking lot was at, right. He didn't refuse anyway and took her there while the seemingly cute boy who she had just been affectionate with followed them.
" Classes started a while ago Mae, can i go? I don't want to be absent on my first day", Aaron voiced out for Mabel to smile and couldn't stop herself from replying.
" Nice try Gregory but I know you just want to get away from me but that won't happen, trust me you have to tell me everything and it will be said today. I don't care if we even skip school just for that", she said to have him roll his eyes.
" You are bluffing Mae", he said with confidence to have her chuckle. " Not when it comes to you", she said to have Holden sigh tiredly. What was the relationship between this two? He felt like a freaking third party who was totally forgotten.
Aaron!!! Why did this cute dude have to show up now of all the time in the world?
