"Love doesn't make the world go 'round . Love is what makes the ride worthwhile."

-Franklin P. Jones.

Bree's pov .

"I'll be there on time Jackson, " I say over the phone for the tenth time.

"OKAY Kitty. We're going through the security check . I'll meet you in Washington, " Jackson says and I smile.

"Can't wait to meet you brother. Bye, " I say and drop the call.

I can't believe November came so soon. Maria is getting married in two days and Jackson's coming home.

I'm so happy right now. I grab my phone and purse before I leave my room.

Aiden was sitting on the couch . "Good morning baby, " Aiden says as I get closer to him.

"Good morning Aiden, " I say and peck him on his lips.

Maria was in the kitchen. I head to kitchen and take my mug of coffee .

"Maria would stay away from the kitchen at least till your wedding? " I ask her . She blushes when I mention her wedding.

"Jackson's coming Bree. He loves my cooking. I'll just cook today's meal alright, " she says and I nod.

Everyone one loved Maria's cooking. I head back to Aiden who was playing on my phone.

I sit down next to him and he puts my phone aside. He looks at me with a mischievous grin.

He grabs my coffee and takes a sip.

"Give me my coffee Aiden! " I yell at him.

He takes few more sips and gives me the coffee mug. I slap his arm before having the coffee.

"Everything tastes better on your lips, " he says making me blush.

"Ready to meet Jackson ?" I ask him.

"Of course I am, " Aiden says grinning.

Saturday morning has never been better.

"We need to collect our clothes remember? " Aiden asks. Shit I forgot. We had to get our dresses for Maria's wedding.

"I forgot. We could go there before going to the airport, " I say and Aiden nods as he scrolls down the channels on TV.

"It's been a long time since I took you on a date, " Aiden says as I rest my head on his shoulder.

"Hmmm.......Yeah, " I say .

"I'm coming over as Jackson leaves Washington . Maria and Brad will be on their honeymoon , so I'll have you all to myself, " he says with smirk.

"Mr. Waters did you forget we have a project to complete before getting all sexed up? " I ask him with a smirk plastered on my face.

"We could finish it in a day, " Aiden says smirking.

"With you staring at me and me alone doing all the work , it's not possible, " I state .

"I'll have my full attention on the project this time unless you get dressed in your sexy shorts, " he says smirking.

"You're an idiot, Aiden, " I say rolling my eyes with a smile. He's my idiot.

He doesn't say a word and kisses me. He pulls me onto him and kisses me harder. His hand travels under my t-shirt.

"Jesus christ, " I hear Maria's voice and get off Aiden.

"Shit," Aiden curses under his breath and I blush.

"You guys need to take care of your surroundings, " Maria points out before leaving us alone once again.

"That was totally awkward, " I say.

"Totally ," Aiden says nodding in agreement and scratching the back of his neck.

"We better leave , " I say and set my hair.

"Maria we're leaving, " I announce before I and Aiden get out of the house.

"You better look around before getting me into a make out session, " I say and punch Aiden's arm.

"Don't blame it all on me. It's your fault that you look sexy, " Aiden says smirking and wraps his hand around my waist.

I roll my eyes as I get into the drivers seat of Aiden's car. "I'm driving, " I say.

Aiden doesn't protest and throws the keys to me. I catch it and get into the car.

"Did Ricky or Rachel call you?" I ask Aiden. They haven't called since our gathering last night.

"No. I guess they're too busy in the bedroom, " Aiden says smirking .

"I wouldn't deny it. They've been inseparable since the camp, " I say as I start the car.

"Just like us," Aiden states grinning. I nod in response with a smile.

"They said they'll be there at Maria's wedding though. I think they collected their clothes already," Aiden says.

Rachel was a bridesmaid too along with Ricky. They both have gotten close to Maria in the past few days.

"She texted me that they did yesterday, " I say. Silence follows for a while before I decide to break it.

"I'm so happy Aiden. Every thing is just perfect . I never thought I would be so happy , " I say looking at the road.

"You deserve to be happy princess, " he says with a heartwarming smile.

I want him next to me forever but I don't know if he would want the same.

I stop at the boutique and get out of the car. Aiden follows me and wraps his arm around my waist.

He kisses my forehead before heading into the men's zone and leaving me at the woman's zone.

I take my dress and get to the car . Aiden wasn't there yet so I lean onto the car and wait for him.

He comes out after a few minutes and was on his phone. "You guys can't skip thanksgiving!" he says or almost a shouts over the phone.

He sounded upset. He gets into the car and slams the door shut. I get into the drivers seat and stare at him.

"I don't want to listen to any of your excuses mom. Both of you've been ignoring me for two weeks, " he says and drops the call.

His hands were curled up into tight fists. He never told me about his parents ignoring him. I place my hand on his shoulder.

"Aiden , why haven't you told me?" I ask him.

He looks at me with sadness in his eyes. "I didn't want to ruin your happiness, " he says and I shake my head.

"I can't see you like this Aiden. You're my happiness alright, " I tell him and he nods.

"My mom and dad have been ignoring me since two weeks Bree. I really don't know what I did . They've been complaining about everything I do, " he says.

"Baby , it's going to be alright. Maybe they're just worried about something, " I say and he nods.

"They've never acted like this before, " he says and hugs me.

I don't say a word and let him hold me . He pulls back and takes my face in his hands. He kisses me like there is no tomorrow.

I kiss him back and I felt as if my lips were on fire. We break our kiss when we finally got breathless.

"You make everything better, " Aiden says smiling and I blush.

"How about some pizza?" I ask him trying to lighten his mood and he does smile.

"Pizza sounds good, " he says and I start driving with a smile.

It broke my heart to see him sad and I would do anything to make him smile cause I love him.
