“Scott, Liv is calling you.” Aiden cut him off with a brusque tone.

“Huh?” Scott looked at Aiden with a frown. “Calling me for what?”

“Go and ask her,” Aiden said, his lips thin.

“Fine.” Scott jumped up and then smiled at me. “We’ll continue this conversation later.”

“Okay,” I said and avoided Aiden’s stare.

“So what’s going on with you and Scott?” he asked me accusingly and I looked at him with an annoyed expression.

“What do you mean what’s going on with me and Scott?” I glared at him. Was he seriously going to go there? He was the one who had left me the previous evening.

“Do you like him?” he asked me point blank and I blinked slowly.

“Of course I like him,” I said with an irritated tone.

“Do you want to date him?”

“No, I don’t want to date him.” I glared at him. I wanted to add You big doofus to my sentence, but didn’t.

“Do you want to make out with him again?”

“We never made out. He kissed me. Once,” I said, my voice getting higher. “I didn’t ask him to kiss me.”

“But you didn’t stop him.” He frowned. “You seem to like kissing us Taylor brothers, don’t you?”

“I don’t like kissing the Taylor brothers, no.” I bit my lower lip and took a deep breath. “I only liked kissing one of the Taylor brothers.”

“Oh?” He froze and his eyes held mine.

“Yes,” I said, feeling light in the head. Was I seriously going to tell him how I felt, right here and now?

“Which one?” he asked and leaned towards me, so that I could see his pupils dilating.”

“I like—”

“There you are, darling.” A soft sweet voice echoed next to us and I looked up in shock. There, standing next to us in the flesh, was Elizabeth Jeffries. What was she doing here?

“Lizzie!” Aiden jumped up and beamed, his face transforming from a slightly angry mask to one of pure happiness.

“Sorry I’m late.” She wrinkled her nose, and even I had to admit that she looked cute while doing so.

“You’re not late. You’re right on time,” he said and gave her a quick hug and a kiss on the cheek. I wanted to burst into tears at the sight of the two of them together. “Elizabeth, I want you to meet Alice. Alice is my sister Liv’s best friend.” He nodded towards me. “And Alice, I want you to meet Elizabeth, a good friend of mine.”

“Hi.” I nodded at her, and she gave me a wide, genuine smile. I couldn’t stop myself from studying her. Her nose was a little crooked and she had freckles across her cheeks. Her hair was a honey blond, but as I studied her dark eyebrows, I was pretty sure she dyed it. She looked prettier in person than she had in the photos, and I hated her for it.

“Nice to meet you, Alice,” she said cheerfully and leaned down for a quick hug. “I’ve heard so much about you.”

“You have?” I asked in surprise. Did Aiden talk about me?

“Yes, Aiden’s always talking about his sister and her best friend and all the funny things you both do.”

“All the funny things we both do?” I questioned and then looked at Aiden. What had he been telling her?

“Like the pranks and stuff.” Elizabeth smiled. “Like Brock and Jock, the strippers you paid to pretend to be your boyfriends.”

“I see.” I frowned. Why was Aiden telling her this stuff?

“I think that your plan was ingenious,” she continued and sat down next to me. “And it worked.”

“It did?” I looked at her questioningly.

“Well, Liv got the boy, didn’t she?”

“Yeah, I guess so.” I nodded and sighed. “Yeah, I guess it did end up working for Liv.”

“I can’t wait to meet her.” Elizabeth smiled at me and my heart thudded as I realized that she was a completely genuine and nice person. She was the sort of person who I’d have as a friend if she weren’t trying to steal my man away from me.

“Yeah, I’m sure Liv wants to meet you as well.” I turned away from her and looked at Aiden. “You didn’t tell me your girlfriend was coming.”

“Uhm, Elizabeth isn’t my girlfriend,” Aiden said with a pleasant look, but his eyes never left my face.

“Yeah, we’re not dating,” Elizabeth interjected. “We’ve only gone out a few times.”

“Do you know where Aiden was last night?” I said pettily and immediately regretted it. Who was I becoming? Why was I acting like this? I knew I was letting my jealousy get the better of me and I didn’t like it.

“No, should I?” Elizabeth asked with a small laugh and then looked up at Aiden. “Where were you last night?”

“I was at Liv’s place watching a movie with Alice,” he replied nonchalantly and smiled at me. I glared back at him. What game was he playing?

“Oh, awesome. What movie?” she asked and I wondered how she could be so trusting. If a guy I was seeing told me he’d gone to watch a movie with another woman, I would not be smiling and taking it this nicely. In fact, if I were dating Aiden officially and he had told me that he had gone to watch a movie with Elizabeth, I would have let him know exactly what I thought about him. I don’t play around, and I certainly do not let my guys go on dates with other girls. And yes, I know, last night hadn’t exactly been a date. However, we had kissed and I’d been on his lap and he’d been hard for me. I’d felt his hardness on my ass. And yes, I had tried my best to get him excited, but I hadn’t made him rise to the occasion. He had done that himself. I knew that if Aiden had gotten hard for another girl while dating me, it would have been over.
