Kristen's pov

                   I never thought I would be happy to see Aiden, I'm so scared that Ace might do something to me. He's never violent, this is the first time I'm seeing him like this. Aiden walked in with his hands closed in a tight fist ready to fight.

" you heard me, let her go" he said with gritted teeth.

            Ace released me immediately, he looked at me then at Aiden. He scoffed and then laughed, shaked his head and started walking out. " I can't believe you are doing this right now Kristen, its been just both of us from the beginning and you are just going to give it away to him?" He stood by the door.

" Everything ended the moment you chose Diana over me, all you were waiting for was to get caught. You can be with her now, there's no reason to hide it any longer..." I didn't know i was crying until I felt the tears roll down my eyes.

" I said I was sorry "

" that doesn't change the fact that you cheated " I yelled. Aiden came over and wrapped his hands around me.

" Thats enough,  you need to leave right now " he said to Ace.

" This has nothing to do with you so stay out of this" Ace moved towards Aiden

" that's enough" I stayed between them " Ace you need to leave right now, I'm going to see my boyfriend's family, my bags are all packed and we are about leaving, get out "

     He seemed shocked by my outburst, he started moving backwards till he got out of the door, Aiden spinned me around to face him.

" are you okay??" I cleaned my tears and smiled at him.

" im fine thank you, let's leave now okay?" I grabbed my bags and I waited for him in his car.

       We didn't say a word to each other throughout the journey. I didn't even glance at him for once, I was stucked in my own world, I didn't even realize we were at his place already.

" Kristen?" I turned around to look at him. " we are here"

" oh" was all I could say.

He helped me with the bag and I followed behind into his house. The living room is twice as large as mine.

" you should make yourself at home, let me take you up to your room and then I'll make something for us to eat."

Unbelievable, I giggled.

" what's so funny?" He pulled my bag up the stairs.

" you cook?"

" why are you surprised??" He opened a door and led me in " this is where you will be sleeping tonight, my room is next door. You should clean and meet me downstairs "

" thanks "

            I headed to the shower and cleaned up myself, I wore a black short and black top. I knew I was hungry the moment I stepped into the kitchen.

" damn, it smells nice in here, what are you making? " I sat on the kitchen chair.

" spaghetti with tomato sauce and parmesan cheese, My favorite ." I watched him as he added the cheese to his sauce. He seem to enjoy what he's doing. He looked up and caught me staring.

" why are you staring Kristen?"

" nothing, you seem to enjoy this"

" of course I enjoy it, I went to a culinary school just to learn how to make dishes. The title 'chef' isn't there for nothing"

" I didn't know you are a chef"

" you don't know a thing about me do you ?" I nodded negatively.

" oh, I have an idea, we could tell your mom we met. We could tell her we met at work which is partially true

and we were close friends... and" he interrupted me.

" won't work"

" you don't know what I was going to say"

" she's not going to buy it, we could tell her we met at work but definitely not friends. We hated each other and I  couldn't bare working with you " he said with a grin.

" then something just clicked right? "

" uhn uhn..."

" lame"

" it's not..."

" lame " i said louder.

" let's just leave it at that okay?? Favorite color?"

" uhh red"

"  I had a feeling, it suits you"

Okay....

" I like red too" he said.

" what's your favorite thing to eat??"

I asked. He already dished out the food and placed mine in front of me.

" pasta" he smirked, he handed me a fork and a glass of wine.

" thanks " 

" how is it??"  He watched my reaction and waited for my reply as I tasted the food. Oh my God.

"Wow, this is amazing, you are a great cook."

" thank you, oh we could tell her that I prepare meals for you all the time. She knows I don't cook for anyone. She's definitely going to believe us" He said with a grin.

" I'd remember that " I drank my wine all at once.

" uh kristen, you shouldn't rush that " he tried to collect the cup from me.

" no I'll be fine " I snatched it back " can I have another please??" He sighed and poured more into the cup, I only took a sip this time .

" this is a great white wine, what is it ??"

"Pinot Grigio, my favorite too"  i drank all again.

" Kristen, would please stop ? "

" what? it is great, last one i promise " I pouted my lips hoping he would answer me, he sighed and poured another into the cup.

     " this movie is boring " I threw my hands in the air.

" star wars isn't boring,  you are boring. Its one of the best movies ever made." I watched him sip his wine.

" c'mon let's watch something else, like a horror movie or something" he looked right at me.

" who the hell watches scary movies?"

" no way" I chuckled " dont tell me you don't watch scary movies because you are scared "

" pfft... I'm not... scared "

" no" I laughed " the great Aiden king can't watch scary movies cos he's scared "

" you are drunk"

" no I'm not,  I'm perfectly fine , look at me" I held his face in my hand and pulled him to look at me " do I look drunk to you ?"

" Kristen you are definitely drunk"

"No im not, I'm just happy " I hugged him and held him close.

" why is that?" I could feel his breath on my neck

" I have no idea " he said something but I couldn't make out his words as I fall asleep.
