Six hours later I was saying bye to the last person who was drunk off his head. Veronica and Steph were in the kitchen talking together while Aaron was next to me. The girls originally suggested that if anyone was passed out I should leave them till the next morning, but I wasn't too keen on that idea. I didn't like the thought of random strangers sleeping in my house.

"So I was thinking maybe you could sleepover...only if you want to of course" I shyly asked Aaron

"If it means being closer to you then of course I'll sleep over" he smiled. We walked back into the kitchen but were taken aback when we saw Veronica and Steph sprawled out on the floor with glass bottles all around them.

"You have got to be kidding me" I muttered "help me bring them to the guest room?"

"Yeah I'll take Steph"

For Aaron it was like lifting nothing but getting Veronica to the guest room made me realise how unfit I was.

Once I got Veronica in the bed Aaron was already waiting for me with folded arms.

"Babe we are going to the gym one day for at least two hours"

"It's not my fault I don't have killer muscles for days"

"Don't worry you're perfect just the way you are" he leaned down to my 5"3 height and captured my lips softly and passionately in his. I bit gently on his lower lip making him groan. I felt his hands move down and they found my thighs.

"Jump" he whispers in my ear. I did so and wrapped my legs tightly around his torso.

"Upstairs. First door to the left" I said before placing my lips back on his. He walked up the stairs without breaking the kiss. He balanced me on one arm and used his other to open the door. Once we were in my room he shut the door with his leg and gently laid me on my back on my bed. I pulled away from him and stared into his eyes while biting my lip.

"What?" He whispered as he began kissing along my jawline

"I'm ready"

He froze and then lifted his face so his face was hovering above mine. "Are you sure"

I simply nodded my head. He smiled before placing his warm lips against mine. His hands found their way around my thighs. I felt them slowly make their way up along my hips, my waist and then my face. His hands then found the top of my dress and slowly peeled it off my body.

On instinct I concealed my body with my arms.

"I thought I told you before. You are beautiful you don't have to hide from me" and with that he removed my hands.

I arched my back against his touch trying to get closer to him. I whimpered when he moved away from me. I heard the rustling of plastic. Condom.

"Are you sure you're ready because I can wait"

I gulped and nodded. Truth be told I was scared shitless. I'm sure everyone's first time was scary though. I think he noticed because he took both my hands in his.

"Relax I got you"

(A/n I'm sorry if you guys were expecting an r rated chapter but I'm just not able to write it. I did at first but it was cringy so I apologise)

He flopped onto the bed and pulled me close to him so my head was laying on his chest. I was so tired and all I wanted to do was sleep. I closed my eyes and snuggled deeper into him.

"Aaron?"

"Mhmmm" I could hear the rumble of his voice against my head

"I love you" I whispered. Silence. My heart nearly sank when he did say anything back. I quickly remembered that it's normal for the other person to wait to say it back or maybe he just fell asleep. I closed my eyes and I allowed the darkness engulf me.

————————————————————————

The next morning

I woke up to the soft feeling of my hair being played with. I opened my eyes and saw Aaron pressed against my left side.

"Hey you"

"Hey" I smiled. My thoughts then replayed the explicit events from last night. "Last night..we did it" I breathed

"Yeah. Do you regret it?"

I instantly shook my head. "No of course not. I will never regret it"

"Good because although you weren't my first, you are the first person who I've done with that I cared about because..I love you too"

My eyes widened in astonishment. Before I could even say anything he beat me to it.

"The only reason why I didn't say it back last night was because I was scared. You are the first girl to make me feel like this and it's not a familiar feeling. Yes tons of girls say it to me but I've never once said it back"

"It's ok. If anything it's good that you didn't say it back if you didn't feel anything. It seems like people constantly misuse the words"

"Exactly" he replies

He then stood in all his glory in front of me.

"AARON" I gasped quick covering my eyes with my hands.

"What?!" He laughed "it's nothing that you haven't seen before" he grabbed his boxers and jeans from last night and threw them on

"A word of warning would have been nice" I rolled my eyes. I bent down and picked up his T-shirt from last night, which was laying on the floor.

" i'm going downstairs to make breakfast. Are you coming?"

" yeah I'll be there in a second, I just need to use the bathroom first"

I simply nodded and made my way downstairs. I carefully stood over the broken glasses of bottles on the floor so I wouldn't cut myself and made my way to the kitchen. The first thing was to get some Advil and water for the girls. Their hangovers are usually the worst. They were still knocked out stone cold so I left it on the beside table for them.

After I got started on making breakfast. I looked in the fridge to see what I could make and settled on bacon, eggs, sausages and toast.

I was in the middle of stirring the eggs togethers so they would become scrambled, when I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist. I felt Aaron lean his head on my right shoulder and peered over to see what I was making.

"Did I ever tell you that you look good in my clothes?"

I laughed throwing my head back against his shoulder. What came next was unexpected. He whipped me around and picked me up like I weighed nothing. I quickly wrapped my hands around his neck and my legs tightly around his waist so I wouldn't fall.

"Babe no" I squealed. He set me on the island that was in the middle of the kitchen. "The eggs are going to burn" I laughed

"Fine you can go but you have to give me a kiss first" he closed his eyes and puckered his lips awaiting me to kiss him. I had a different idea in mind. I pushed the palm of my hand against his face making him stumble back a few steps.

"That wasn't very nice" he pouted and turned away from me. I rolled my eyes at his childish behaviour

"Ok I'll give you one now. Come here"

"Promise"

"Yes I promise" I opened my arms for him. He came over and we started slowly making out.

"Well well Well" we immediately broke apart and looked towards the door where the voice was coming from. Veronica and Steph were standing by the door with their arms folded across their chests. "Definitely not what I expected to come down to" Steph smirked

"I was just making breakfast" I quickly turned away from them and made my way over to the stove. Thankfully the eggs didn't burn too much.

As I finished serving all their plates we all began to dig in.

"How did you guys sleep last night" I asked the girls taking a piece of my bacon in my mouth

"Oh we slept very good. What about you guys?" They asked

Me and Aaron looked at each other before I answered. "Oh it was fine we-"

"Cut the crap we heard you guys last" I immediately chocked on my bacon. "You are so lucky you're mom wasn't here" Veronica snickered.

"Were we really that loud?"

"Yes oh and Aaron I hope for all our sakes you used a condom because I know for a fact I'm not ready to be an auntie and Sierra is not ready to be a mother" Veronica continued

"What I can take care of a child" I defended. I then quickly turned back to Aaron. "Not that I want one right now"

"No you can't you can barely take care of yourself."

"Yes I can"

"When was the last time you worked out?" She asked

"That's not the same thing" I grumbled "Anyways he did use a condom so don't worry"

"Good" they smiled

"Christmas break made me completely forget about school" Steph said

"Shit yeah we have school on Monday" Veronica says

"Yeah thanks for stating the obvious dumbass" Steph joked. They then began play fighting and roasting each other.

"Want to hang out after school?" I asked turning to Aaron

"I would but I have hockey practice. We can hang out after school on Wednesday though because of the maths tutoring" he suggested

"Fine by me"

"Oh Sierra my date with Josh is tonight so I was hoping you and Steph could come over to my house to help me get ready" Veronica says

"Of course we will come over" I reply

"Josh always talks about you" Aaron speaks

"Really" she blushed tucking a piece of hair behind her ear

"Yeah. Word of advice don't make any sexual innuendos, he's kind of a freak"

"Noted." She laughs

We continued talking for another while, mostly about the party and how they pulled it off without me suspecting a thing.

"Right who's ready for some cleaning" I cheered making them all grumble in response.

Hey lovelies. I hope you are all keeping well and staying safe. I also hope you all enjoyed this chapter. Let me know your thoughts. It's now very clear that Sierra and Aaron have deep feelings for each other. If you liked this chapter don't forget to leave a vote.
