Chapter 29 : "You're cute when you're angry."

"Remind me why I'm here again?" I said, glaring at Aaron.

"Because you don't wanna fail." Aaron replied smugly, leaning back against his chair.

I rolled my eyes. Never had I thought I'd be sitting across from Aaron at Starbucks.

Aaron insisted though. He suggested we study the lessons we missed, since we were procrastinating going over them, in Starbucks.

I said no. Very typical. But Aaron insisted and pissed me off. Even more typical.

He was all like Oh come on, coffee will help you concentrate more, we'll get more done earlier.

I argued that we can make coffee in my house, only difference being we'll be on a comfy couch instead of wooden chairs.

But Aaron whined about it all day, eventually I screamed 'Yes.' in the middle of class.

But, I might have fallen asleep accidentally while reading which made me arrive a bit late and now Aaron won't shut up about it.

"Am I really that desperate to get an A though?" I widened my eyes dramatically.

"What do you mean?" Aaron narrowed his eyes at me.

"I mean," I leaned forward to make my point, "maybe I don't need to graduate, I'll just work two jobs a day and eat the rest of the night."

Aaron squeezed his brows together and placed his hand on his heart, "All of that because I'm teaching you about respect, oh Oreo, this is for you own good."

"Oh Oreo, this is for your own good." I mimicked Aaron, making him laugh.

"I can be respectful and arrive a couple minutes late, by the way." I said as I crossed my arms.

"A couple minutes, not fifteen minutes." Aaron shrugged.

I took a deep breath, "Aaron, I swear to god if you don't shut the fuck up."

Aaron smirked even more, "You sound hot when you curse."

Aaron winked at me as I blushed.

Does he always have to be this annoying? And also smart and a bit funny?

Like choose one boy, you're already too attractive.

"I'm gonna order now .. yeah okay." I said, getting up as Aaron smiled at me.

Just because he has a nice smile, it does not mean he doesn't piss me off.

Like how did I end up friends with him again?

Oh right, my fault, I just had to get into his car.

God that seems like such a long time ago, even though it's only been about two months.

As I stood in line, I checked for my money.

Oh right. My mom insisted I can take her debit card even though I insisted on grabbing some cash.

What if I can't pay with a card? It's literally going to be the most embarrassing thing ever.

God dammit, I'm getting closer, the line is moving.

Stop freaking out over something so stupid.

I mean what's the worst that could happen? I would laugh it off and call Aaron and repay him tomorrow in school.

It's fine.

Why the hell am I shaking again?

What's wrong with me, oh my god.

Damn, I'm getting closer, just two more humans in front of me.

But it's that feeling again. I'm starting to sweat and my breath is hitching and I'm literally shaking.

Play it cool, play it off.

I hate myself. I can't believe I'm panicking so much over this.

I can't help it though. My body is already feeling tense and edgy, and at the same time I'm getting dizzy.

Should I just go back to my seat and pretend I don't feel like drinking coffee anymore?

Never mind, it's already my turn.

I can't help but feel the intense tightening of my chest, this is too much.

Oh god what is happening to me? I don't even remember what I was freaking out over in the first place.

"Hi, may I get your order?" The nice lady behind the counter asked me.

I took a deep breath.

"Umm, yeah please."

"I'd like a caramel machiatto please, large size." I said, smiling slightly at the girl.

I'm really just excited about the large size.

"Okay.. that would be four dollars." The girl stated, handing me the bill.

I gave her the card.

There I go.

She grabbed it for me and I paid with it.

I think it's safe to say my stupidity never fails to amaze me.

I literally just worried myself sick. And now it's all fine like nothing has happened.

Why do I do this to myself?

"Will you please stand over there to get your order?" The woman asked politely as I realized I'm blocking the line for everyone.

"Oh yeah, sorry." I said embarrassed, as I moved over.

Aaron must've noticed because he was laughing at me from over where we are sitting.

Asshole. He didn't even bother to get me something before I arrived here, and instead only ordered for himself.

I narrowed my eyes at him and made a note in my head to do the middle finger to him once I get back.

He doesn't have to order you anything, how would he know what you want go get anyways?

He could've called and asked!

Yeah but you were too busy being asleep.

Okay, just shutup!

I finally took my order and went back to my seat.

Aaron's first instinct in life, is to anger people I assume. Like I swear, he probably ate worms to piss his mom off as a child or something.

Or else why would he grab my straw and throw it away?

I gasped.

"First of all, it's extremely rude to do something like that okay? And secondly, you're gonna get your ass up and get me two straws, not just one, how do you like that, huh?" I crossed my arms and glared at Aaron, something I've been doing a lot recently.

"You're cute when you're angry." Aaron said, taking a sip of his drink, not making any attempt to get up.

"My freaking god, just because I'm a five-foot-three, it doesn't mean I'm cute when I'm angry okay? I'm sick of everyone saying that, now go and get me a damn straw or I swear to god I'm leaving." I'm really angry at this point.

I wish he just made a damn reaction, he's so damn annoying and is always getting me all worked up over nothing.

Aaron didn't say anything as he smiled at me for a couple seconds.

I put my hair to the side and took a breath to calm me down.

"What?" I finally snapped.

"Nothing." Aaron shook his head, still grinning, as he got up and got me two straws like I asked him to, well more like forced him to, and he grabbed the one he threw away earlier, and put it where it belongs, in the trash.

Just like me!

I did not just roast myself in my head, did I?

Damn you Aaron for driving me insane!!

When Aaron returned, I failed to hide my smile and eventually he said, "Just let it out."

So I squealed and said in a singing voice, "You got me two straws, I made you get me two straws."

Aaron sighed. "So where do you wanna start?

"What?" I said, pulling my eyebrows together.

"Umm, we're supposed to be studying, remember?" Aaron said, grabbing his book.

"Oh right, I almost forgot!" I exclaimed.

Why do grades have to pop in and ruin everything?
