Her Sister's Best Friend 42
OLIVIA"Did you hear what I said?" Aiden asks, giving my cheek a gentle tap.I place my hand over his, continuing to look him in the eyes.I can't blame him for the way he is trying to get my attention. I have been staring into his eyes, lost in thought ever since he said those words, as if I had not heard him at all.I am in shock, and my mind is completely blank. I can't think of anything to say, even though my tongue is burning with the desire to speak.All I want to do is keep staring into his eyes, which seems to draw me in like a magnet. “Olivia” Aiden utters.Okay, I like the effort he is making to get my attention. Despite the fact that I haven't spoken a word for several minutes, he does not appear the slightest bit stressed. Or maybe, he is just used to dealing with women who act this way. Maybe he has been through this with other women many times before, and knows exactly how to handle it. I feel a sickening feeling in my stomach. I hate the idea of other women shaping h

OLIVIA Aiden drives to the parking lot of his house, and his hand remains on my thigh the entire time.He no longer uses his thumb, but he would occasionally run his hand up and down my thigh, slowly and softly. Believe me when I say that I like what he is doing. How can I not like what he is doing, by the way? I won't mind if he does more. Aiden pulls the car to a stop, and his hand slides off my thigh. I hate that he has taken his hand away. It feels like a part of my skin is left cold and empty.I open the car door and step out, closing the door behind me. I shiver as the cold night air seeps through my thin dress. I wrap my arms around myself to ward off the chill. This dress has been like a blessing before, but now it is more of a curse. I regret wearing such a light dress at this moment. I walk over to where Aiden stands, looking up at him as if asking for a go-ahead to follow him inside. He meets my gaze. He reaches for my hand, and interlaces our fingers. With our hands

OLIVIAI gape at him, my mouth hanging open in shock."Sarah is coming here? Is it my sister? " I ask, barely managing to get the words out.I have to be sure I had heard him correctly. Is this really happening, or am I imagining things? I just hope it was the former."Who else would 'Sarah' be?" Aiden blurts out, shaking his head. A line appears between my brows. "Don't be an ass," I snap at him. "This is serious,” I add. "I am just saying," He says , holding up his hands. “It is your sister, you should know that."“Why is she coming here? What does she want?” I ramble, firing off questions after questions. I can't seem to wrap my head around it. Why would Sarah come here? What could she possibly want? Sarah coming here means that I am in trouble. I'm officially in trouble. “What are we going to do now?” I ask. “Relax,” He mumbles under his breath. “R…Relax?” I stammer. “ You are really telling me to relax when my sister is coming here. Do you even know what is on the line? D

OLIVIAAiden's deep brown eyes rake over my body from head to toe. We stand so close that our chests were almost touching.I return his gaze, scanning him from head to toe too. I am not going to let him be the only one doing the looking.His hands are shoved in his pockets. He wears a pair of denim jeans and a white T-shirt with the inscription "I don't really give a flying fuck."Of course, what else do I expect from him? He is Aiden Blacksmith, after all, and he does not give a flying fuck.His brows furrow. "Where are you headed?" He probes, a puzzled look on his face."Nowhere," I reply, a deep crease forming between my brows."So, you were just dancing around the door for no reason?" He probes, giving me a "you are nuts" look.I lift my shoulder in a half shrug. "Are you here to question me or something?" I ask."No," He answers with a shake of his head."Then, mind your own business," I shoot back. "Your attitude is just so... cute sometimes," He mutters under his breath.I

OLIVIA"I want you more than anything," Aiden murmurs, his fingertips sliding beneath my shirt. "I want you, right now. I want to claim you."His words send shivers through me. Before I can say anything, he starts walking, his eyes still locked with mine. I cling to him, my hands pressed against his broad chest.I love how it feels to be so close to him. I am not sure if it is the feeling of his toned chest beneath my palms, or the scent of his cologne that makes my head spin. All I know is that I want to be close to him forever, to feel the warmth radiating from his body. It is like coming home.Finally, Aiden stops in front of a large desk in the corner of the room and sets me down on top of it. I look up at him, wondering what he has in store for me. I wish I can read his mind. I wish I can anticipate his next move. "I love the look on your face right now," He utters, his voice low and husky. "You look so innocent and pure, and all I can think about is how you are going to look w

OLIVIAI chew on my bottom lip, rereading the message on my phone for the millionth time that day.Is this real? Am I just imagining things again?

My crush fucking just asks me out on a date.Okay, let's make it official. I am the happiest person in the world at this moment. I doubt anyone else is as happy as I am right now.

OLIVIA “ Who was your first kiss?” Sarah's question plays on a loop in my mind, just like a new song you can't stop listening to. Why would she ask such a thing, and in front of Aiden, no less? What is she trying to do? Is she on to something, or has she figured out what is going on between me and her best friend? Just the thought of Sarah finding out makes my heart skip a beat. No, that can't be the case. If she had figured it out, she would not be sitting here, playing games with Aiden and perched on his lap." Olivia!” Sarah yells my name, making me jolt of my thoughts. " What are you thinking about? Didn't you hear me asking you a question?” She asks.My eyelashes blink rapidly. " I told you about that the other day," I utter, not meeting her gaze. I raise my head to steal a glance at Aiden. As if on a cue, he looks up at me too, and we lock eyes. His deep brown eyes pierce into me."Don't worry," I say in my mind. "I didn't tell my sister about us."I can tell that is what
