Bree's pov.
"Why are they taking so long?" I ask as I look around in an attempt to find Jackson and Amanda.
"Cool down baby . They're probably taking their luggage, " Aiden says with his hand around my waist.
I'm so excited to see Jackson . I was finally going to see him after six fucking months.
"Jackson!" I yell as I see him and run towards him.
I hug him and he spins me around before putting me back down.
"Hey Kitty. I missed you, " he says and I kiss his cheek.
"I missed you too ," I say and look at Amanda.
"Hey Amanda , I missed you ," I say sincerely and she hugs me.
"I missed you too honey, " she says with a smile.
"How's the little one doing? " I ask her and she blushes.
"Jackson never gives a chance for anything to go wrong," she says giggling a little.
"That sounds like him," I say smiling.
I grab Aiden by his hand and pull him towards us .
" Jackson and Amanda this is Aiden, " I introduce them to each other with a smile.
Jackson gives Aiden a bro hug. "It's nice to finally meet you Aiden, " Jackson says with a huge grin plastered on his face.
"It's nice to meet you too, " Aiden says with a smile.
"Congratulations on your pregnancy Amanda," Aiden says .
"Thank you Aiden. ", Amanda says with a tinge of pink covering her face .
"Come on guys , Maria and Brad are waiting for you, " I say and take Amanda's bag.
They all nod and follow me. We put the bags at the back of the car .
"I'm driving princess, " Aiden says with a smile and I throw the keys towards him with a smile.
I and Aiden sit in the front while Jackson and Amanda sit in the back seats.
"So how are preparations for the wedding going on?" Jackson asks as Aiden starts driving.
"They're going good, " I say with a smile.
"Kitty we've got to go somewhere. " he states reminding me and I nod. My parents, Ashton and Maddison.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We arrive home in half an hour or so . I take Amanda's bag while the guys carry the others .
We place the bags in their room. "I'll meet you guys after sometime, " I say and Jackson nods.
Aiden and I walk back to my room. Aiden locks the door behind us and wraps his arms around me.
"Its only four o'clock. We've got two hours before you could go out with Jackson, " Aiden says kissing my neck.
"Hmmm........" I say and I turn around to face him.
He immediately kisses me without wasting any time. His hands travel under my shirt and he starts unbuttoning it.
I do the same and take off his t-shirt. "You're so beautiful, " he says between kisses.
"I really like you Aiden, " I say as he starts kissing my whole body .
"I like you too baby, " he says. Every single time he says I like you I wish he says I love you.
I wonder if that's ever going to happen.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aiden was still asleep. It was 5:30 pm already. I had to go out with Jackson in half an hour.
Aiden was holding me so close to his body that it took me five minutes to get out of his grasp without waking him up.
I kiss his forehead and get into the shower. I shampoo my hair quickly.
I get out of the shower with a towel wrapped around my body . I smile at sleeping Aiden.
I kiss him on his cheek once more before I walked into my closet.
I put on a black lace top and a pair of ripped jeans. I blow dry my hair and put it into a ponytail.
I chose on not applying any makeup and walk out of my closet to see Aiden coming out of the shower with a towel wrapped around his waist.
He looked so sexy with the water dripping over his body and his wet brown hair.
"Stop staring at me princess, " he says smirking and walking towards me making me blush.
"You look beautiful, " he says grabbing my waist and pulling me closer.
"We've just got five minutes, " I say as his face inches towards mine.
"Hmmm......... That's enough time for you to give me a good kiss before leaving, " he says and smacks his lips to mine.
I let his tongue explore my mouth as his hands travel under my top. His lips travel down my neck.
"Aiden I...I have to go, " I say reminding myself that Jackson would be waiting for me.
He doesn't reply and places his lips on mine, giving a passionate kiss. We finally break our kiss when we got breathless.
"You know I could kiss you all day?" Aiden asks me making me blush. He kisses my forehead and finally takes his hands off me.
"Take care Princess. Call me once you're back home, " he says with an award winning smile.
"I will. You could stay back if you want, " I tell him and his hands find their way back to my waist, pulling me close.
"Baby doll I've got to really talk to mom and dad right now. I don't know what's going on in their heads, " he says with a sad smile.
"Aiden....just take care, okay?" I ask him . I didn't like to see Aiden like this. I wonder why his parents are shutting him out.
"I will baby, " he says and I smile at him. I stand tip toes and peck on his lips before leaving.
I head downstairs to see Jackson sipping on his coffee. I walk into the kitchen and take my own cup.
"Is Amanda coming too?" I ask Jackson.
"No , she said she would stay back and and take some rest, " he says with a smile.
"So how are things between you and Aiden? " he asks.
"Awesome, " I say in one word with a smile.
"It's so nice to finally see you smile, kitty, " he says . I was happy to see him after so long.
"I missed you Jackson, " I say as tears start to form in my eyes.
"I missed you too Kitty, " he says hugging me.
I really missed him.
"We better leave before it gets pitch dark outside, " he says and I nod.
"Maria we're leaving, " we both say in unison like we used to. I giggle a little before we walk out.
"I'm driving," Jackson says and I give him the keys before getting into the passenger's seat.
The drive was silent yet comfortable. I was the first one to break the silence.
"I love him , Jackson. " I say looking down at my hands. He already knew I was talking about Aiden.
"Does he love you too?" he asks me.
"I don't know Jackson. I'm scared that he would leave me if I tell him the truth, " I say staring at him.
"I think he loves you too , Kitty. Just give it some time, " he says with a smile.
I nod with a smile on my face. But the smile dissappear when Jackson stops the car.
Jackson squeezes my hand and I look at him." It's going to be alright, " he says and I nod before getting out of the car.
Jackson holds my hand tight as we walk towards my parents grave. I don't realise I had tears until a tear drop falls on my hand.
My knees give up and I get down onto my knees next to the grave. Even my best friends, Ashton and Maddison were buried here.
A sob escapes my lips and I felt Jackson's arms around me. They died on my birthday.
"I'm sorry, " I say as if they would be listening to me. I turn around and hug Jackson.
"It's not your fault, " Jackson says and I knew he was in tears too.
"I never had the courage to come here without you, " I say and look let the tears roll down freely.
Part of me wished Aiden was here even though I had my own brother next to me.
