Jason and Amanda just stood there in awe of my presence. "Hey Christina is there something I can help you with," he asked. I ignored him and walked over to Amanda and proceed to beat the living shit out of her. Within seconds Jason was on me trying to remove me from her. I could hear April in the doorway asking me to stop but I didn't care. In that moment nothing else mattered. I wanted nothing more than to ruin that perfect little face of hers.

Amanda puts up her hands trying to defend herself against my assault, and with a little bit of struggle Jason manages to pull me off of her.

"What the hell is wrong with you!" I could see the rage clearly evident in his eyes, as I pushed his hands off me and yelled back at him.

"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you?" Why would you tell Amanda about that night?" I see Amanda standing up and approaching Jason from behind. Her hair looked like a birds nest as I watched her chest rising up and down.

"Jason tell your little bitch to go back to the jungle where she belongs," she says before she tries to make an attempt to lunge at me.

"Amanda fuck off," Jason says pushing her away from him.

"If anyone is a bitch in here it's you."

I make a feeble attempt to have a go at Amanda again, but Jason stops me. This time he pushes me out of his room.

"That's right baby take out the trash." She smirks at me and takes a seat on Jason's bed.

"Amanda get the fuck out of my house now!" Jason yells at Amanda leaving her in a state of shock. Amanda surprised at his words makes her way over to him and attempts to touch him. Jason shrugs out of her grasp as she turns back to the room to collect her belongings.

"Baby why are you kicking me out? If anyone should leave it's that animal."

"Shut up Amanda.! I will not have you disrespect Christina in any way so long as you are under my roof." Amanda cocks her head to the side sizing Jason up as if she discovered a secret.

"Don't tell me you're fucking her?" Jason sighs running his hands through his hair.

"I am not fucking her and even if I was that's none of your business. Amanda just go, I'll call you later." Without a second glance at Amanda, Jason pushes me past April and towards my bedroom. Once inside his movements are quick and before I know it I am on my bed with Jason hovering over me.

"What the hell was that Christina?"

"What do you mean?"

"Now is not the time to fucking play mind games, give me straight answers."

"Your whore of a friend came downstairs ready to start a fight with me so I responded. Why did you tell her?"

"Tell her what?"

"About the night I almost walked in on you two."

"Christina I didn't."

"Don't lie."

"I'm not lying. God what is wrong with you?"

I sat in silence not looking up at him. "Why would I tell her about a night which caused our first fight the next day?"

"Then how did she find out?"

"She must have seen you, but that doesn't give you the right to start beating on her. Christina you know that she's a model right?"

"Yes Jason I know."

"Good so you know that a model's most precious asset is her face."

"Yes I know."

"You better hope she doesn't have any bruises or so help me."

"Why would it matter to you anyway?"

"Well let's see the fight happened in my room and she doesn't really like you, so it would be easy for her to press charges. Your whole fight could affect my mother's image and mine, plus it won't go over well with any future endeavors you plan on pursuing."

Jason was right. Amanda could possibly ruin my life now that she has the power to. Aiden, my dreams, they could all be gone in a blink of an eye.

"So what should I do?"

"I'll try and smooth things over with Amanda, but you still need to apologize." As much as I hated to admit it Jason was right. Amanda held too much power over me right now. She is established and I'm just starting out in this industry. The last thing I want to do is cause a scandal for Aiden's father.

"Fine, but I still can't believe you're taking her side after all of this."

"For the love of...Christina I'm not taking anyone's side. Last time I checked you were the one I had to remove from the fight, Amanda didn't even fight back. Besides you have a boyfriend who is willing to take your side, so go bitch to him for all I care."

Jason leaves my room and I lie back staring up at the ceiling. I can't believe I let that Amanda get to me. I sigh and look at my phone to see if I have any messages. When I see there are none, I turn it off and place it in the charger. A minute later, there's a knock on my door.

"April I know it's you, come in."

"Christina, how are you feeling?"

"I'm pissed April, but I'm not pissed off at Amanda. I'm pissed over the fact that I let her get to me."

"I understand. I was pretty shocked myself. I have never seen you get so upset before. Thank god Jason was there to break up the fight."

"Yeah, but the thing is that I have given Amanda the tool she needs to destroy me."

"What do you mean?"

"She can ruin my future if she really wanted to. I assaulted her April she can press charges anytime."

"Right," April said with sad face.

"April its fine, I'll be alright."

"Yeah, well I hope everything works out."

"Thanks."

"Goodnight."

April leaves and I fall back on my bed. Tomorrow I would have to kiss Amanda's ass, and I so am not looking forward to it.

***

In the morning I see Jason making himself breakfast. I walk over to the fridge to get some milk.

"Good morning," was all that we said to each other. There was still obviously some tension between us, so I decide to leave the kitchen. The doorbell rings, and to my surprise its Aiden.

"Good morning babe," he says giving me a kiss on the cheek.

"Hey baby I wasn't expecting you so early."

"Well I gave you to Stacy yesterday, so I figured I'd come by and pick you up early."

"Okay, just give me a few minutes to get ready. You can wait in the..." I saw Jason coming out of the kitchen and walking towards the living room, so I changed my mind.

"You know what, why don't you come with me and wait in my bedroom." Aiden was a little surprised at first, but a smirk then came onto his face.

"Lead the way." He gave me a slight tap on my ass which surprised me. Aiden simply winked and at me as I rolled my eyes at him.  He followed me up to my bedroom and sat on the couch over by the window. 

"Nice room, you get plenty of natural sunlight in here." 

"Thanks, you wait here while I get ready." I went into the bathroom, to take a shower, and once I got out it hit me. I forgot to bring my change of clothes in with me.

"Shit." I don't know why I was panicking, Jason had seen my body plenty of times, and Aiden is a modeling agent so he's seen a bunch of naked female bodies. I guess I'm just nervous especially since we just started dating.

I leave the bathroom and see Aiden watching television. He turns to face me and I watch as his eyes move up and down my body which is currently clad in a towel.

"I'm sorry I forgot to bring my clothes with me."

"No need to apologize Christina believe me." I roll my eyes at him and grab underwear, a pair of jeans, and a shirt. I think about going back to the bathroom, but decide it would be more fun to see his reaction. I would have to get used to people seeing my body from now on anyways, so why not practice with my boyfriend.

I let the towel drop to the floor and I now have Aiden's undivided attention. I watch his Adam's apple bob up and down as he stares at me. I slowly pull on my panties before attempting to reach for my bra. Aiden stands and walks over to me. I lean into him as he stands behind me his hands on my hips slowly trailing up the side of my stomach. He stops right before he reaches my breasts and takes a deep breath in.

"You're teasing me right now aren't you?"

I turned around to face him, "Trust me I'm not." He looks me up and down appreciatively once more as a grin forms on his face.

"Nice Abs."

"Thanks." I could feel the blush forming on my face so I averted my eyes from him.

"I'm actually surprised that your so toned. I was in the middle of looking for a trainer for you, but it seems you don't have to work so hard on your fitness."

"I try to stay in shape, so I'm pretty active." I grab my bra and put it on leaving Aiden to pout.

"Aww the show is over already."

"Unfortunately yes now let me finish getting ready."

He nods his head and resumes watching TV while I put on my makeup. When I was all set, Aiden and I descended the stairs only to be met by Jason again. Why is this happening to me today of all days.

"Hey Jason," Aiden says while reaching out to shake his hand. Jason ignores the gesture and focuses on his eyes on me.

"Hi Aiden, so you two are heading out?"

"Yeah I figured I'd take my girl here out shopping."

"So that's what we're doing today" I asked amused."

"Yeah pretty much, why did you want to do something else?"

"No shopping sounds fine."

Aiden and I had a playful banter going and I totally forgot about Jason standing right in front of us.

"Oh sorry Jason, I'll see you later." I pulled Aiden towards the door. I closed the door behind us, and for a moment it looked like Jason was pissed. Great he's already mad at me, could this day get any worse.

In the car I asked Aiden why we were going shopping.

"Aiden you know I don't need you buying me things right?"

"Nonsense Christina, you are now Aiden Maxwell's girl so you have to dress the part."

"What's wrong with how I dress?"

He chuckled to himself before answering, "Nothing baby I just feel like spoiling you so let me."

"Fine, when a man wants to waste his money on me who am I to refuse."

"Sarcastic much."

I just shrugged my shoulders as we continued to listen to music. Aiden took me to Neiman Marcus. I really don't shop at this store a lot, so this was sure to be a fun experience.

"Which department do you want to look at first?"

"Shoes definitely."

He chuckled as I led the way. Aiden took a seat while I looked for shoes I would like to try on. As I look around I bump into someone knocking their shoes out of their hands.

"I'm terribly sorry," I say picking up the shoes only to come face to face with Amanda. I just can't catch a break today can I?

"Oh great you again, are you going to beat me up today too?"

"Shh and no," I say pushing her away from Aiden.

"Look Amanda I was going to call you later, but it seems now is as good a time as any to tell you this." She crosses her arms and waits for me to continue as I take a deep breath.

"I want to apologize for the way I behaved last night. I wasn't in the right frame of mind, and I completely misunderstood the entire situation. I'm also glad that I didn't seem to bruise your face. You don't have to like me, forgive me, or even talk to me. I just wanted to apologize because I know now that I was in the wrong."

A smug smile formed on her face as she took in my attire.

"I accept your apology, and I understand that you only acted the way you did because you did not grow up in the same social class as me."

I tried my best to ignore the last part of her sentence because I was just about ready to go at her again, so I smiled weakly at her.

"Thank you."

She stared at me for a moment, before guessing what was on my mind.

"You're probably wondering whether or not I'll be pressing charges right?"

"Was I that obvious?"

"Yes, but I have decided not to. Jason wouldn't be too thrilled with me if I went ahead and did that so you're off the hook for now."

A part of me was relieved but there it was, the confirmation I had been waiting for. Amanda is letting me off the hook for now, which means she could still potentially destroy me. I have to control myself when it comes to her or it's all over.

"Thank you," I said with a relieved sigh. She shrugged her shoulders and began to look around the room.

"Are you here by yourself?"

"Why?"

"Well you don't seem like the one to shop in a store like this. Oh did you come with Jason?" She began to move towards the area Aiden was sitting before I stopped her.

"No I didn't come with Jason. I came with my boyfriend."

"Really and just who is this boyfriend of yours?"

She moved around me and stopped. She turned back around towards me and started laughing. "Please Christina enough of the antics, I don't see anyone. Well with the exception of Aiden Maxwell, which is weird seeing as this is the women's shoe department.

"He's my boyfriend." Amanda started laughing hysterically like I had just told her some hilarious joke.

"Please Christina don't make me laugh, why would the son of Preston Maxwell of Maxwell model's want to date you." She then proceeded to make her way over to Aiden. I tried to call out her name to stop her before she went over there and made a fool of herself but it was too late. All I could do was follow behind her. She took a seat next to him which made him turn in her direction.

Aiden saw me and stood up. "Baby did you find anything you like?"

"Not yet," I said before turning my face to see the stunned expression on Amanda's face.

"Do you want to try another store?"

"No I'm going to look around a bit more, but before all that Aiden please meet Amanda Reid."

Amanda stood up shocked that I had even introduced her to him. "Pleasure to meet you Aiden," she said shaking his hand.

"No the pleasure is all mine, any friend of Christina's is a friend of mine."

"Actually we're n..."

"Christina what are you saying. Christina and I go way back. Anyway I'll leave you two back to your date I don't want to interrupt.

"She seems nice," Aiden said directing his eyes back on to me.

"If only you knew."

Aiden and I had a great day. He did buy me a lot of clothes, even though I protested against most of the purchases. When he brought me home I really didn't want him to go. He did however bring my shopping bags inside the house before he left.

"I had a great time today." He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him, as a smile crept onto my face.

"So did I."

"You see it's not so bad being spoiled by me is it."

"No I guess I could get used to it."

"I'll text you later okay." I nodded my head and he placed a kiss on my forehead.

"That's all I get," I say with a playful smirk before bringing his lips against mine. I curved my body into his embrace as his arms circled around my waist once more. Aiden kissed me back fervently fighting for dominance. He bit my bottom lip causing me to gasp and allow him entrance. Our tongues molded and danced together as he explored my mouth. When we broke the kiss for air, Aiden pressed his forehead against mine. The sound of our ragged breathing echoed around the room. I didn't expect the kiss to go that far, but I have to admit that Aiden is one hell of a kisser.

"Was that enough," he asks with a smirk knowing fully well what my answer will be.

"More than enough," I reply trying to calm myself.

"I'll talk to you later okay."

I close the door behind Aiden and see April come out of the kitchen.

"Wow is all I can say."

"April how long have you been standing there?"

"Just now, but I witnessed everything. Thanks Christina now I'm all hot and bothered."

I couldn't help but laugh at her as she fanned herself, "You're welcome."

April went back into the kitchen and I saw Jason come out of the den.

"Christina may I have a word." The tone in his voice was different. He sounded more serious and reserved.

"What's up?"

"I know that you live here and everything, but if you and Aiden want to make out please don't do it in front of my door."

"You saw us."

"I saw more than I really needed to, but if Aiden can make you go weak in the knees like that..."

Jason walked towards me leaving me cornered against the wall. I swear this must be his favorite position to put me in.

"Then you won't be able to walk once I'm done with you."
