AIDEN
"I'm scared, I saw monsters in the dark place, sleep with me tonight..."
I can't believe it was coming out of her mouth my eyes grew wide in shock, my heart froze instantly, but I can't stay.
•A Week Earlier•
The next day after i took Gold, my hands were in my pockets I was exhausted after Joan made me run through the casinos files and left me in the middle to give Jayden a blow job.
The weight of the Casino keeps becoming a burden day by day, I don't even know how I was able to survive.
Striding down the hall to my room my phone rang in my pockets i picked up my to see Bernice one of my one nighter ring.
She was a developer interested in the Casino's growth and gave me a lap dance in my office which led to a hot make out session and eventually banging in my office which of course Joan doesn't know, she's just too desperate and doesn't understand what a night stand mean.
I back against a door opposite Gold's room and memories from yesterday kept flooding back.
For some reason my chest thump I felt like she was staring at the door.
"Pick the damn call already.." I hear a whisper.
My lips curved to a smirk of course she could hear my phone ring, it amused me that it annoyed her and now I want to see her face maybe a smile.
The phone went silent and I heard a sigh of relief and unheard mumbling.
I walked towards her door and stopped heaving deep breaths hesitantly questioning whether to go in, suddenly I don't want to do this, I can't believe me, Aiden Knight is afraid at this situation when I've shot people dead, with my eyes closed.
I took in another deep breath and let it out as I gently tap on the door.
"Can I come in..." I said in a gentle soft voice hoping to get a positive reply strangely I could just kick the door down in this situation.
I heard noise coming from her room like she was trying to arrange it before I could see it, I smiled on the thought of that as she continued her mission.
"Come in...." She said panting I twist my end of the door knob and let myself in to see Her wearing the short fitted dress I gave to her yesterday, I almost lost focus by staring too long she stood like a doll and pull back strands of her golden blonde hair over her ear.
"Good Morning..." She finally broke the long Awkward silence, bringing me back to reality, why does this girl have to be so beautiful, I used my hand to rub my face in an attempt to look away as I went to her closet.
"Aiden what are you doing at my closet" She yelped looking fragile, someone who needs to be protected.
I shook my head, driving any side thoughts about her.
I scanned her closet ignoring her while she kept shut.
"Take, wear this they are more decent..." I said handing her an oversized shirt and Jeans.
"What is wrong with what I'm wearing..." she asked her cheeks turned red when i hand her the clothes.
"Everything now go change..." I yelled she went to the change room and threw the dress on top she wore the shirt and the jean as she Came out looking like still Beautiful, what is wrong with this girl can't you just be ugly in clothes.
"Good it can manage.." I said trying not to get distracted in her golden eyes.
"Is there a reason you are in my room other than asking me to change..." she said twisting the ends of her shirt.
"Yes, since you are here and living in this house there are some rules you are to follow..." I said as I don't know what made me move closer to her but now we were a inch apart.
"No more junk food, no more caffeine, no more wearing tight or revealing clothes, no leaving your room since Joan said we can't lock you up anymore, no staying up late in the night and most importantly....." I choked on attempting to say the last part, which led to a violent cough.
"Are you okay ?" she gasped with an illustration of pity in her eyes wanting to touch me but I move back a little like she was some deadly virus.
"Don't touch me..." I said rudely hissed through a cough which eventually died down.
"Why...." She asked in a pout with her brows furrowed down.
"Look there are many rules to follow but for me and you to get along and one of us not to get hurt we both need to follow these rules they are very important..."
"NO STAYING IN CONFINED OR CLOSED PLACES TOGETHER
NO ANY FORM OF PHYSICAL CONTACT
NO STRINGS ATTACHED"
•Time skipped to a Week later•
I can't stay, I can't break any of them but she won't let me go.
"I can't stay ..." Her sleepy eyes were half closed but her grip on me tightened.
"Please stay...." She pouted I could not say no I'm the reason she was locked in the basement.
"Only for some time, when you are asleep I'm gone...." She nods in agreement as I got on her bed gently she let's go of my hand her eyes became heavy and tired.
"Goodnight..." she yawned her eyes were dimmed shut I waited for some time for her to be in a deep sleep placing her pillows as a barrier between both of us.
She Is a slouchy sleeper, she kept turning and twisting until she broke down the barricade of pillows between the both of us
I scoot a little away from her but she found her way to me her leg brushed mine, I got up quietly I tried to lift her leg successfully and moved it from mine.
I yawned tired it's almost 11, I've been trying to avoid contact with her, but it feels like the Universe wants her on me.
I concluded to head back to my room, a pair of hands tugged tightly clunged to my shirt, I turned to face Gold we were breath apart her, lips were parted slowly, she breathe calmly.
Her bangs were over her eyes her breath blew them slightly.
Tempted I pushed her bangs away from her eyes, as she sleeps like a baby, my eyes darted to her red pink lips, unexpected she threw her arms around me and pulled me tightly close to her, I tilt my head down to face her she breathe gently against my Neck, I felt goosebumps, our uncomfortable slouching on her bed has led to us breaking one rule
NO PHYSICAL CONTACT
I tried to push her off me but she held to me tight like she knew I was gonna leave in middle of the night, her lips brushes my skin leaving her to warm it with her gentle breathing, the more I struggle to escape from her grasp the more she clenched to me tightly, I had enough of this game, I wanted to violently Shook her off me.
"Just stay, okay..." she Whispered, the moon shone through her curtains, the her golden features glister against the moonlight, I slowly lean forward a smirk made it's way to my face, she looks so peaceful when she's not bashing me.
Difficult to control myself I planted a quick peck on her forehead.
I don't know if I'm blind but I'm sure she smiled, I buried my face on her head, she burries hers on my torso, my eyes were heavy from the unnecessary dodging, I felt something I haven't felt In a long while and I like it few minutes later I dozed back to sleep.
GOLD
My head buried on my pillow, drooling, I sniffed a familiar scent my eyes sluggishly open, I was trying to make out where I was, I had one of those Aiden dreams but this time he carried me in bridal style from that dark room to my room I childishly pouted for him to stay, I chuckled quietly to myself, it was all a dream.
That was never going to happen.
I redrew my head from my pillow, and rubbed my eyes I noticed a pair of arms encircled round my hips.
I opened my eyes to see Aiden sound asleep as he breathe pushing my Bangs slightly, it wasn't a dream, I can't believe I did that, I broke a rule he's gonna kill me.
I try to escape his grasps but somehow his arms were locked tight round me like chains his eyes sluggishly opened and he yawned, until he fully opened his eyes.
I'm so dead
"Good you are awake...." He said calmly not the reaction I expected, but maybe a second chance to live.
"I'm sorry for...." he pushed my bangs away from my eyes and smiled resting his chin on my head I bury my head against his torso, waiting for him to rip my hair out.
"You don't have to be sorry, it was my fault I locked you in the basement and overreacted, when I shouldn't, I basically got mad because you ate wings."
He said ruffling my hair I must have died in my sleep and woke up in heaven or I'm in a parallel universe, or Aiden is sick, whichever I wanted it to be like this everyday.
He sighed briefly as he unlocked his hold on me and plays with my hair one last time he gets up from my bed and head to the door.
I felt a hole ripped in my heart that wish of it lasting forever, in reality can never come to pass, he's going to go back to yelling at me.
Wait I hate him, then why do I want to cuddle up next to him and comb his hair with my fingers.
I watched him as he clicks my door knob sideways.
"Gold.." He sighs as he turns to face me.
"We broke one rule, I'll let that pass because it's my fault." I breathe calmly in relieve that he isn't mad.
"I'm sorry, i don't know what came over me ..."
He still glued his eyes on my door not sparing me a single look my stomach made flips and turns.
He opens the door slowly.
"No need to be sorry but I have to inform you we can never do that again before we break other rules..." I looked down to my bed sheets as I squeeze them tightly in an attempt not to cry, it hurts why ? I don't know, my concentration was cut short the moment he slams the door shut still in my room.
"They say rules are meant to be broken, good or bad it doesn't matter how far it goes..." he turned to Face me I got up from my bed looking at him confused, he wore a mischievous smile at a pace he slowly came close.
I backed up little by little until he cornered me, my back slammed against the wall he slowly took my hands with his and slammed them against the wall and leaned close as he completely trapped me in his barricade, our eyes locked again he swipe a taste of the metal ring pinned on the side of his lips, he breathe hard against me, I bit my Lower lip as he smile to himself and pushed his face closer to mine.
"What do you think Gold???..." he breathe hard against me having an advantage since he trapped me
"What do you mean..." I questioned in a mutter trapped in his barricade.
"How far do you think we can go, how many rules can we break so far..." my eyes widened in shock as my unending gasps Continues.
"Aiden..." he pressed my hands tighter against the wall like he was afraid I was going to leave or run away.
His eyes burned bright digging down my neck, his lips trailed up my neck in a flick up my ear, I choked on the air as his tongue tickcled my neck upwards my earlobe, he stopped with a wicked grin, my heart raced he breathe softly against my ear, it made my skin crawl.
In a husky voice he struck me with the question.
"What do you want Gold, a kiss or a hickey..."
