What are you asking me, Aiden?
Nothing. I was just joking.
Oh okay. What are you doing?
About to hit the sack. I have a big meeting at work tomorrow.
Oh okay.Disappointment filled me. Tonight wasn’t going to be the night that Aiden Taylor professed his love for me.
Aiden:Sweet Dreams, Alice. Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.
Alice:That might be hard.
Aiden:I’m well aware of that. :)
Alice:What does that mean?
Aiden:What do you think it means?
Alice:I’m not 16 anymore.
Aiden:I’m glad to hear it.
Alice:It was an honest mistake.I lied. It hadn’t been a mistake at all.
Aiden:I know. You told me.
Alice:I got confused about whose bed was whose.
Aiden:Sure you did.
Alice:What does that mean? Sure you did.
Aiden:Alice, sweet dreams.
Alice:We should talk about this Aiden. I don’t want you thinking anything that you shouldn’t be thinking.
Aiden:That was a long time ago, Alice. I’m over it.
Alice:Fine. Good Night.
I closed my laptop and jumped out of bed, feeling antsy. What did he mean he was over it? Was he still mad at me? Was he angry? Was he trying to tell me that he was over me and letting me know that I had no shot with him? I groaned as I walked to the kitchen and heard Liv and Xander whispering and doing heaven knows what in the living room.
“Get a room, guys!” I shouted into the living room with a snarl, suddenly feeling upset and angry at the both of them.
“Alice?” Liv sounded surprised, and I heard her get up off of the couch and walk into the kitchen. “Everything okay?”
“I’m fine. Just wondering why you guys think it’s okay to make out in our joint living room,” I said churlishly as I opened the fridge. “Isn’t your boyfriend a millionaire or something? Do you guys have to make out in our living room, like some randy teenagers?”
“We weren’t making out,” Liv said simply. “We were watching a movie.”
“So why did I hear whispering and kissing?”
“You heard kissing?” Liv raised an eyebrow at me. “Xander asked me to pass him the popcorn, and I told him to get his own,” she explained and studied my face. “What’s going on, Alice?”
“Nothing.” I bit my lower lip, my face hot with shame. “Sorry.”
“There’s nothing to be sorry about.” She continued to stand there. “Are you sad about Aiden?”
