at him. I see him coming toward me and lifts me off the ground with no effort. As soon as he lifted me and started walking down the stairs I snapped out of the trance. I blinked a few times and notice we were a few steps away from the stair landing. “let go of me!!! I’m fine!!!!! My god!!!! Just let me go ill explain everything just let me go.” While I squirm out of his hand I feel the tears running silently down my checks. They dot listen he just keeps his strong hold against me. We get into someone’s car and the boy sits down in the back still cradling me. As soon I as we hit the road I pass out.

I blink my eyes open to a white bright light. I see the boy next to my bed asleep. A note on the side table. In my sisters hand writing. :
Hey Aubrey.
You gave us quite a scare. You cut deep enough to bleed to death. We stayed a few hours but its late and I have school tomorrow. The doctors told us you will be discharged tomorrow night don’t worry we only told the doctors you slipped on a knife and you were little shocked. They think you are now traumatized so. But you have to tell u s what happened! Any way Aden ( in joshes football team…)won’t leave you alone so I don’t know what going on there, any way he’s in your grade get to know him well be back soon.
Your sister , skyler.

I put the note down and look around my surroundings. I see a TV a drawer a chair and a little table with flowers on them, a window that looks out to the lakes. I flutter my hand and see the cut scar on my wrists. I groan with sadness. Because of my groan the boy I mean Aden looks up and smiles. I grin causally back. We don’t speak until a few min later that I had to say at least thank you. Before I could say anything he interrupts. “ so I know you might not tell your sister but I would like to know. I mean what happened you had this ripped up photo and don’t know I’m curious.” He cocks his head expecting a no but finds himself listening to what happened. I explained it just as it was. “ I had a best friend mase, he started hanging out with jerks now has a horrible girlfriend and just because she doesn’t like me he thought it would be best if we weren’t friends. Then he came back and asked for my friendship back. I replied back the scene and as I was finishing the few last sentences I felt the tears running down my eyes, face and dropping to the bed sheets making little blue water marks as they hit. I look up to see him nodding. “ I know that kid he plays football now yeah, he doesn’t seem like that bad well I guess appearances aren’t enough.” He then says the words I least expected him to say.” I’ve see you around school how bout you hang with me? I mean I hang out with the jerks but I just sit there or I get beat up and I don’t take part of the teasing or something like that. Scouts honor!” he smiles, I smile brightly Back. I check the clock on the wall and see the time and my eyes almost bulge out of my head. “ holy cow its 2 in the morning!” I grin evil.” You have to go to school tomorrow because if you don’t go then your football career is busted.” He groans knowing im right” damn I forgot about that! I guess ill be going I’ll see you tomorrow at like 4 when we discard you.” He leans over kisses my forehead and runs out the door. My phone vibrates 2 min later. “hey… its Aden I programmed my number to your phone already.... .” I laugh and text him back to go home and go to bed. i put my phone away and sigh a sigh of relief. I have never felt so relived or loved before mase but I don’t care about mase. I smile as I drift asleep.
I wake up to noises in my room. I adjust my eyes to bright light coming from the window. I open my eyes to see a pair of jeans a long sleeved purple shirt and my boots on the edge of the bed. I don’t have the needles on me so I get out of bed and take the cloths with me. No one notices, there all busy packing up things and talking to the doctor and nurses about some medicine I need to drink for protein and blood loss reduction. I get the cloths out and am glad to fin a brush on the bottom of the pile so comb my now past my but long hair and brush out my bangs. I walk out the room and sit on the bed patiently. I look at the clock. 4:40. I yawn and everyone looks over to me. Skyler rushes to me and gives me a hug. She takes my hand and we walk to where josh is standing josh gives me a hug and we walk out of the hospital to the surprisingly warm winter day. We walk towards joshes jeep and I get into the backseat. “so what about our parents what happened to them?” skyler does not answer for a few min.” I didn’t tell them. When I called they were on a plane for an emergency surgery they have to perform on a client that did something while skiing or something. I just told them to have fun.” She looks at me and I nod my approval. We ride the rest of the car ride in silence until we get to our house and we get out of the car to see more than a dozen flowers on our doorstep and more in my room. “What the hell!!!” all of them said mase. I threw the cards down but kept the flowers. I evacuate my room of enough plants that I can still have a few left in my room.

3 months later.

Aden and I are becoming really good friends. We act like were dating like holding hands an hugging and sharing food and stuff. The scars are fading and m heart is swelling. We don’t kiss though. I see mase look at us and I see anger flit through his eyes until Katelyn kisses him or something distracts him.
Around 6 our doorbell rings and skyler yells that she that she shall get it. I in the dance room wearing black tights black leotard and a black dance skirt. The mirror helping me with positioning. I plop myself on the floor and lace my shoes on. I stand up and brush myself off I turn around and see another reflection in the mirror. I gasp until I realized it was Aden and mase. I frown. They come inside and sit on the floor. I stand. I have my hands on my hips with a frown on my face. Aden comes towards me and hugs me. “I didn’t bring him we just arrived at the same time.” He mummers. I melt and hug him back. We pull apart and he grabs my hand. Mase stands up and blinks once and starts speaking. “umm hi Aubrey. I know you mad but I mean come on you don’t know how much this hurts me. I know deep down it hurts you too. I miss you. You cant be serious about going out with him.” He spits the word out as if its breaking his heart just to say it.” I mean come one you have to miss me.. I miss you. I think of only you. I dream about only you.” With that he strides across the room in 3 strides and grabs my face and crushes his lips to mine. I melt into is arms letting him kiss me until I realized what was happening. I started pushing away my hands on his chest and my flailing. Aden takes him by the shoulder and pushes him against the other wall. He comes running towards me and I sooth him knowing he was nervous because of the fact I might go back to mase. As Aden tries to sooth both us mase goes to the door and opens it. Before he leaves he mummers something I think I only dreamt I would hear him say” I love only you.” With that he closes his door and leaves. I shake at the thought of what just happened here. “ I’m okay Aden seriously. My dance teacher to practice the lifts. Help me?” he looks at me and sighs defeated. I turn on the music and Aden and I practice the routine perfectly at the moment of the lift he lifts me up and I lift my leg out with my hands on his shoulders. Looking at him and he staring back with his silver intense eyes. Before I know it I have my lips crushed against his and his against mine. He puts me down softly without letting go of me and pulls me closer by the waist. I wrap my arms around his neck and moan with pleasure. “ugh. Just omg I’m sorry!” Aden and I pull apart as fast as humanly possible. I blush instantly and look up to see skyler smiling. “I knew it!! You guys are perfect. Hahaah I win just again.” She stalks out of the room closing the door behind her. I look to see Aden staring at the floor with a huge smile across his face. “Um that was a great lift. We actually landed it this time” I blush constantly. We have an awkward silence following. The silence is shattered with a shrill of bells. We both jump at the sound of his phone ringing. He looks at his caller ID and frowns immediately. I stand next to the mirror looking at him with curiosity in my eyes. I stride over to him and careful not to touch him I look over his shoulders. Over 10 messages all saying the same thing.” Dude what with you and ambry. Or dude you’ve lost you mind but she is something, or dude what has gotten into you. Others nice like great hope you have a great relanship, that awesome. I sigh as I read-skim the messages. I flit toward the door knowing how tweeted, face booked and g- mailed. I open the door and storm to the living room. I see skyler sitting on the couch the laptop on her lap her cell phone on the side and cordless phone clamped to her ear. I hear she is talking to josh about Aden, and I. I grab the phone and press the disconnect button. I shut the laptop and take her phone away. “ why the hell would you say that about Aden and i. I mean yeeah we kissed, but it doesn’t mean anything, it was an accident. We were under stress. My god! Aubrey sits on the couch and tucks her feet into her body. Skyler just looks at her.” Well do you like him?” Aubrey hesitates to answer knowing she would have to set her limits with her sister. “Well yes but that makes no difference you had no right to do that and you know it. Do you know how awkward school is going to be on Monday?” I groan and
