I Don't Like You

Chapter 18

"Who's Noami?" I asked him.

He shook his head. "No one. Um.......How about we grab something to eat?"

He was avoiding my question. Why was he avoiding my question? I squinted my eyes at him. "Okay." He held his hands up in a 'what?'. I just walked out of the room and he followed behind.

When we got to his car, we got in and he started driving.

It was too quiet. "So how was your day?" I turned to him. He looked at me and back at the road.

"It was fine. Yours?"

"It was interesting. Actually, Peyton asked me to be his girlfriend." Aiden looked at me. "And I said yes."

He made a face. "Don't make that face. Why are you making that face?" I pouted. Aiden was my friend now, I respected his opinion but I'll never admit that out loud.

He just shrugged. "I told you I don't trust him. I don't think he's the guy you want to be around." He looked at me. I just looked back and then he sighed. "But, I guess I support you and your decision." I don't know why but I felt relieved. A small smile came across my face.

About five minutes later, he pulled up to some pizza place. We got out and made our way inside. I was so hungry. I could practically taste the food already.

We approached the counter and the guy behind the counter's eyes were glued to me. I felt uncomfortable under his stare and I also internally rolled my eyes at how much a guy this guy was.

It makes sense.....

"Is there anything I could do for you?" The guy asked still looking directly at me. I don't think he was talking about food. Disgusting......

Aiden suddenly put his arm around my waist. I looked up at him confused but he just glared at the guy. What the hell is he doing?

I was about to say something when Aiden beat me to it.

"I don't think that's something appropriate to say to a lady, don't you think?" Aiden asked the guy. His voice was cold and harsh. I have to admit, it was pretty sexy.....

Wait.....

"And you are?" The guy replied just as cold. Aiden's grip around my waist tightened.

It looked like he wanted to say something but held it back. The guy didn't seem to noticed, though. Instead Aiden said somethings else.

"Leave her the fuck alone or else we're going to have a problem." Well Damn. This time, his voice was filled with venom. It actually scared me a little too.

The guys face dropped and he stayed silent. Aiden gave him one last glare before removing his arm from my waist and grabbing my hand. "Come on, we'll go somewhere else." Aiden started dragging me out of the place and into the car. But I was hungry. What about my food? I was really looking forward to it....

When he started driving, I finally spoke up. "What was that about?"

"He was eye raping you. It was disgusting."

I chuckled. "Eye raping me? Are you serious?" Only Aiden would say something like that.

"Yes. I'm pretty sure it should be illegal." I shook my head at him.

"You're something else." I saw him smile at the corner of my eye.

I realized something today.......

Aiden Praxston was possessive. But I still didn't get my pizza.

******************

"I'll see you tomorrow." I said to Aiden as I got out the car.

"So you're saying I can't spend the night?" He smirked suggestively.

"In your dreams." I replied to him.

"You know it." I sighed and rolled my eyes at him.

"Your so dirty."

"Only for you." God, he's annoying.
I walked up to the front door and watched Aiden drive off. When I got inside I walked into the kitchen and found Jessie eating Chinese food.

"Hey, where were you?" He asked me with his face stuffed.

"I was out with Aiden." I replied simply. I reached for his plate and took some of his food. Aiden took me to get pizza somewhere else, but I didn't have a problem with eating again.

"Hey, yours is in the fridge. This is mine." He whined.

I rolled my eyes and made my way to the fridge before joining him. "So hows it going?" I asked him.

He shrugged. "Nothing much for me. I heard your dating Peyton Wright." He turned to me with a smirk. My jaw dropped.

How did he possibly know that?

"How did you-"

"Gossip spreads fast. All I have to say is, if you guys have sex, use protection okay?"

I almost choked on my food. Jessie laughed at my reaction. "Jessie!" He was just as annoying as Aiden.

"I'm just playing with you." He ruffled my hair. "But, seriously, if you need anything, I'm here alright?" I nodded at him.

Once we finished our food I went upstairs to get ready for bed. Soon my phone started ringing and I picked it up.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Hey, doll." I smiled.

"Hey Peyton."
