"Yeah, just walk in and come on up here, the doors unlocked." I said to Aaron on the phone.

Okay, let me clear something up. Remember when I said "stuff happened with Aaron?" Yeah, I'm not going to go into full detail, but a month after my birthday, I stayed the night with Ariana, and Aaron was there, I snuck away to his room, and I don't really have to say more than that.

Yeah, we had sex.

I don't even know what we are to be honest. But before you go on saying shit like "ew Landen you just turned sixteen and he's twenty going on twenty one," its legal as long as I'm sixteen.

I mean, I guess we're friends with benefits, or something like that? We're nothing official. Ariana doesn't know about anything, and neither does anyone else. I'm sure I'll eventually have to tell her if things go far enough, though.

Aaron even knows about Lloyd. I think that's a big factor that keeps us from really taking things anywhere. I mean, I'm completely open about having a relationship with Aaron, its just that I don't think I'm totally over Lloyd yet.

I'm also pretty sure Evan already knows what's going on with Aaron, because on my birthday he walked in on me pretty much on his dick, and Aaron has been coming over a lot since. He never questioned it, though.

My thoughts were interrupted when I heard a knock on my bedroom door. Aaron walked in.

"Evan and Lloyd saw me walk in." He said, slightly laughing. "Stared at me with the funniest looks on their faces."

I smiled. He was honestly really attractive. He had such a deep voice, too, which was honestly kind of scary if you didn't know him that well.

He closed my door and started walking towards my bed before sitting down on the corner.

"So how was your day?" He asked.

I tried not to laugh.
"Me and Lloyd ran from the cops because the assistant principal caught us with marijuana."

Aaron chuckled. "Sounds fun."

I patted the spot on my bed next to me. "Come here." I said.

Aaron did what I told him, and crawled next to me on the bed. He halfway layed down before putting his arm around my stomach.

"How's Alex doing?" I asked him.

Aaron shrugged.
"He hasn't really been home a lot lately. Out at parties and friends houses, mostly."

"I feel like he's been acting kinda weird lately." I said.

Aaron went a while without saying anything. Finally, he spoke up.
"I think he's on pills."

I looked at him. I could tell he was hurting. Alex, even though he was only 18, was definitely on something and his life was definitely going to go downhill more than it already has. I knew it hurt Aaron to see his younger brother like that. And I also knew he felt like there was nothing he could do.

I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and hugged him for a little bit.

"Things will get better, okay?" I said to him. "I promise."

He looked up at me. I could tell he hadn't shaved in a while, by the slight stubble on his chin. He just seemed so sad lately, and it made me sad. He really was a good person who deserved the world.

"What are you doing tonight?" Aaron asked.

I shrugged.
"Nothing, as usual."

"You should hang out with me then."
