I wasn't supposed to update but I did as @Faizarahman786 asked me to do. 😍😍😍 listen to the song above. Love ya!!

"What?" He yelled and I shrugged my shoulders and drank my beer. There was silence but it wasn't an awkward silence rather a comforting, soothing one.

"I used to read in Class 7 when I was bullied. I was fat that time, had braces and some huge glasses. You could say I was the typical nerd. All the boys and girls used to mock me. They would tease me saying that I was a loser, idiot and no one would love me. At first I didn't listen to them but later their words effected me like poison. They would fight with me, play pranks on me and throw water, colours, food on me and I never told anyone about it. My Father he left us when he got to know my mom was pregnant. She was just 18 then but still she took care of me. Never did she make me feel unwanted. She always showered me with all her love and never failed to bring a smile on my face. I loved her with all my heart. But I couldn't tell her because she was always busy working, paying bills and my fees and I didn't want to burden her more. So I didn't utter a single word." Silent tears rolled down his face as he remembered the horrible memories.

"I thought I didn't deserve to live because I was useless but there was always something that told me that no I won't give up my life just because they don't know how to treat people. I won't give up my life for those stupid and selfish people who care about none but themselves. I encouraged myself but still there was a fear inside me.

One day, a group of guys were bullying me and they pushed me. I fell on the ground. I waited for the impact of their beatings to come but it never came. They were looking at something behind me or rather someone. I looked behind and saw Jake, he was a really popular guy and everyone adored and at the same time feared him. He threatened the boys that if they or anyone else troubled me again then he, himself would take care of them. From that day onwards he became my Best Friend. He introduced me to the others and they welcomed me and never criticised or judged me. Staying with them gave me a new hope, a new start to change myself, to gain my confidence again, to show them that I am not weak. Then I started jogging, I controlled my diet and every week went to the gym. I remember the day my mom saw me as a new person, a new Aaron. She was proud of me and it actually felt good to gain my confidence back. No one ever bothered me again and I was happy for that, more than happy. It changed my life for good. I didn't change because they mocked me or ruined my childhood but because I wanted to show them that I won't give up. I won't let them break me.I am not weak."

I sat closer to him and leaned my head on his shoulders and whispered.

"No you are not weak. It's called being strong." I looked up and saw his teary face and wiped away his tears. He sniffed and gave me a weak smile. I smiled back, slowly leaning in and placed a feathery kiss on his lips. I closed my eyes and savoured the moment. I pulled away a few seconds later and drank the rest of the beer. I don't know why I kissed him.

It just felt right to do....

"Can I stay here tonight?" I asked him hoping he would agree cause I really didn't want to confront Jace now.

"Sure." He nodded.

"But there is a problem. There are only two rooms in the house one is mine and the other my mom's which is not clean now. So you might have to sleep in my bedroom if you want I can sleep in the hall." He said while nervously scratching the back of his neck.

"It's ok and no you will sleep in your own bedroom and I will sleep in the hall." I replied and got up but he seemed to have another idea.

"No you won't sleep in the hall. We can sleep together." His cheeks turned a shade of pink when he realised what he said.

"Aaron I know I am irresistible but I didn't know you were so eager to sleep with me." I smirked. He opened and closed his mouth like a fish, certainly embarrassed.

"It's ok I was just kidding. Let's go and you look so cute when you blush." I complimented while making my way to his room followed by him. He is so nervous when he is with me. I don't know why but it's really fun to tease him.

I changed into one of Aaron's shirt. He gave me his sweatpants, they were too big and were slipping down even when I rolled them up so I was just wearing his shirt that almost reached my knee and my underwear. The door of the bathroom clicked and in came Aaron wearing nothing but his boxers and let me tell you he was looking damn hot.

Hot is not enough for him

Shut up you horny mind.

He noticed me checking him out and had a smirk on his face.

"Looking hot." I whistled and this time he didn't blush.

"You too babe." He replied with a wink.

"Don't I always baby?" I faked an innocent face and he chuckled.

"Let's go to bed."

He turned the lights off and pulled the duvet over us. He was sleeping on the right side while I on the left.

"Good night."

"Good night, Aaron."

Every moment spent with Aaron felt special and fun. He is always shy and quiet in front of everyone but when he is with me, he is a bit more free, nervous and playful. I feel some really strange emotions when I am with him but they are the good kind of strange emotions.

Now will you admit it??

Admit what?

That you fucking like him.

Do I? Do I like Aaron??

Yes, I do

A smile graced my face at the recognition of my own feelings.

I like him.

I like Aaron.

Not as a friend.

Aaron POV

I rolled on my back and clutched my pillow and dug my face in its neck. Hmm, it smells so good. Wait my pillow doesn't have a neck and it certainly does not smell so heavenly like vanilla and lavender. I opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was a neck. Shaira's neck. I forgot that she was staying the night. I slowly entangled myself from her, careful not to wake her up.

I stared at her sleeping face. She is so beautiful. Her pale skin contrast with her dark brown hair made her look more beautiful. Her long eyelashes that almost touched her cheeks and cute but sharp nose. The slight freckles that she had on her cheeks. She also had a beauty spot above her lips. How didn't I notice it??

You would have if you weren't too busy having dirty thoughts about her.

Shut up it was you not me.

Sure as if you didn't want to kiss her.

Ok ok. I lose, you win.

And last but not the least her soft plump pink lips. How were they so soft and pinkish? I suddenly had the urge to kiss her but that thought soon died when I saw her shift in her sleep. I laid back and closed my eyes pretending to sleep.

I felt her presence close to me and my heart beat accelerated. It was so loud I feared that she would hear it. What is she doing so close? She lightly kissed the corners of my lips and trailed them from my jaw to my neck. I stiffened and I hope she didn't feel it.Her other hand trailed down my chest to my abs incredibly slowly but sensually as if she was trying to get me aroused. And she was absolutely successful in that. Her soft hand traces the outlines of my abs and she kissed back to my ear and whispered.

"Next time try to be a better pretender." I could feel the sarcasm in her tone. I opened my eyes and saw her smirking back at me.

"Good morning." She sweetly greeted me and I replied back with a good morning. Indeed it was a good morning from the way I woke up. She chuckled and walked to the bathroom giving me a sight of her long legs. I groaned feeling a boner and mentally cursed her in my mind.

If only she knew the things she did to me.
