Fake hickey?!

"Cathie, no, please, don't drag me into this." I walked back, shaking my head, making a run for my room, but she caught up and turned me around, holding my shoulders and shaking up my entire body.

"How am I dragging you into this? I just want to see how it would look on my body before I actually do it because this shit, right here,—" She said pointing towards her makeup kit, "—is waterproof and smudgeproof, so once I apply it, there's no going back because I am all out of makeup remover."

"I have makeup remover!"

"I want to try my hand on somebody else first to see how my final result would look! I want to see my body from his vision. Please, Sienna, I'm literally pleading you." She said, going on to her knees and interlocking her fingers. I chuckled at how dramatic she was being and before she could touch my feet, I spoke up,

"Okay, okay, fine, just be quick, okay? Aaron would be coming in like," I glanced at the wall clock and then continued, "forty minutes."

"So?" I have her a straight faced look and replied, "I don't want to make him mad and spend my entire evening explaining him as to why I have a hickey on my neck.

"Not just your neck, babe." My eyes widened at her and I started shaking my head, frantically.

"Hell to the no!"

"Fuck man, Luke is going to be so pissed." Cathie exclaimed happily looking at her work on me and I shook my head at her weird happiness gaining thingy from making him mad. I'd never ever think of making Aaron mad because when he gets mad, he gets mad.

After fifteen minutes of constant nagging and arguing, Cathie successfully managed to make hickeys all over my upper waist area and she actually did a pretty good job in making the hickeys look real. Luke was so going to lost it today.

"What's the whole point in doing all of this, babe?" I asked her, as she started making fake hickeys all over her body just like she did over mine a few minutes ago.

I was like a hickey map for her.

"Getting him mad, duh." She said, shrugging her shoulders and I gave her a bewildered look, "But why?!"

"Because he has been spending a lot of fucking time over his fucking PS5." She said, applying the lipstick on her cleavage a little more forcefully than required.

"Poor him." I muttered under my breath, but looking at the squinted eye look she was giving me, I'd believe that she heard me.

Ten minutes later, she was all done and I finally got to wear my tshirt back. She grinned widely at herself looking in the mirror and bid me goodbye, before hopping out of the door and making me laugh at the crazy friend that I've got.

Then my eyes landed on the wall clock and I screeched before making a run towards my makeup remover because there were only ten minutes left for Aaron to come back and I had to remove all of the mess that Cathie did on me. While looking for my remover, my eyes landed on a male t-shirt that was sitting on the edge of my bed and I rolled my eyes at Cathie's always forgetting stuff nature.

She was supposed to be going to their home wearing a male t-shirt, to get Luke more mad. Thinking of dealing with it later, I let it be where it was and took out a makeup removing wipe. Just as I was about to wipe off the makeup from my neck, I heard the bell ring.

A smile crept up on my lips thinking that it would be Cathie who must have come back for grabbing the tshirt, so for not wasting her anymore time, I grabbed the tshirt and started walking towards the door. Without even looking at the person who was standing behind the door because of my huge confidence that it would be Cathie only, I pulled the door open and said,

"Looking for the tshirt, babe?"

But I think I should have peeped through the hole because standing before me was a fuming Aaron who was angrily looking at the tshirt and back at me, after doing the same movement for few more times, he finally fixed his eyes on me and I gulped,

"You are back early."

"Shouldn't you be happy?" He asked, stepping closer and entering the home before closing the door behind him.

"I am, what would you like to eat for dinner today? I have not started cooking anything yet."

"You always have the food ready by this time. What were you doing today?" He asked, skeptically looking at my face.

"Cathie was over."

"Does that tshirt belongs to Cathie too?" He snatched the t-shirt from my hand and started sniffing it.

"Yes."

"Then why does it smell like cologne?"

"How'd I know? You should ask Cathie." With that said, I made a bee line for my room, trying to take off the fake hickeys from my body before I have to explain him why I have them on me in the first place.

Because then, that would be embarassing.

You might think why was I acting so cool? Well, I wasn't. I was scared to the bones even though I didn't do anything and if you guys think that I was being dramatic, then let me tell you, maybe I was, but explaining anything to Aaron when he gets mad was a next level explaining.

"Those hickeys on your neck too? Did Cathie gave those to you?" I heard him ask just as I entered our room.

"Yes." Just then, I was pushed against the wall, one of his hands cupping the nape of my neck and trailing  thumb over the hickey, the fake hickey and other holding my waist.

"Stop lying to me, Sienna." There we go with Sienna again.

"I am not, trust me when I say it's Cathie's doing." I whispered and he closed his eyes, intaking a shaky breath. When he opened his eyes after few seconds, his eyes turned dark, almost black and those dark orbs were glaring at the other hickey that was situated on the collarbone.

"Everything was going so well, baby, so perfect, then why?" For the first time in months, I saw his eyes turning moist and my heart cried at the sight. He looked so vulnerable, hurt and angry and even though I didn't do anything bad, I felt like I cheated on him and it was all my fault.

Thank you so much, Cathie.

"Aaron—" I tried to clarify all the misunderstandings when his face instantly turned from hurt to raged, within seconds my tshirt was on the floor and he tightened his knuckles taking in the sight of me.

"Let me explain—" I was interrupted once again.

"You have hickeys all over you."

"That's because—"

"Who?" He demanded, looking straight into my eyes, making me want to hide myself behind the wall.

"I told you, it's Cathie."

"Isn't Cathie straight and with that Luke guy?!" Blood rushed to my cheeks and my face reddened with embarassment.

"It's makeup, Aaron. She made these hickeys with makeup." I saw a sense of relief fell upon his face, but it was instantly gone when he tried to rub off the hickey and it didn't smudge.

Ofcourse, it didn't, it was smudge and water proof.

"I am going to show you right now that this hickey is actually makeup and once I prove my point, I am not going to be talking to you for the entire week, have fun doubting my loyalty towards you then!" I pushed him out of my way and took the makeup remover before waving it before him just for the effect and wiped that hickey off and as much as he looked relieved, he looked scared too because I had never been angry at him before, but today I was because how can he doubt my loyalty!

"I am so sorry baby, please forgive me?" He gave me the best puppy dog face that he could muster and pulled me closer by the waist.

"No." He kissed my forehead and then both of my cheeks before landing his lips over mine, but as much as I was loving his soft and tender kiss, I had to pull away because then it would kill my entire being mad mood.

"Let me kiss you, baby." He tried to kiss me again, but looking at my stern face, he made a pouty face and shut up.

He better.

"You look so sexy when you get mad, please get mad more." He whispered, seductively into my ear and bit my earlobe making my hormones go crazy over a simple act, but as you all know, gotta stay mad.

"Don't worry about that, baby, because I am going to look sexy for the entire week and you won't get to touch this sexy body, so be prepared." His eyes widened at my nickname for him because it was not everyday I called him baby.

"Fuck, way to dig my own grave."
