THE BOY NEXT DOOR

I CAN'T & ACTING STRANGE

Aimee's POV
The next thing I know is that he kissed me. He kissed me. Omg he....KISSED ME?! I quickly pulled away. "I'm sorry. I can't do this!" I say, getting up and running inside. I ran up to my room.

By now, I was balling my eyes out. Shortly after, I heard a soft knock on my bedroom door. "I-I don't wanna talk!" My voice cracked.

No matter what I said, that person walked in anyways. I looked up to see Connor. I got off of my bed and jumped into his arms, as I cried harder.

"What happened Aimee?" He asked, kicking the door shut with his foot and carrying me to my bed. "R-Ross kissed me!" I managed to get out.

"What's wrong with that?" He asked, curious.

"What's wrong with that?" I chuckled. "Where's the protective older brother that wouldn't even let me near a guy?" I added, moving away from him.

"Aimee, I'm right here" He says, trying to walk towards me but I backed up. He continued to walk closer and that's when I completely lost it.

"NO!! DON'T HIT ME!" I cried, falling onto my knees. He went to put a hand on my shoulder but I flinched.

"Aimee! What the hell is going on?!" He panicked. I just sat there sobbing. He was on the phone with someone.

After a few minutes, the Lynch's were here. Stormie and Rydel came into my room letting Connor leave. "Aimee, what happened?" Rydel asked, getting a little closer to me.

I didn't say anything.

"Aimee?" Stormie asked, trying to place a hand on my hand. "DON'T HIT ME!" I yelled, flinching.

Rydel looked over at her mom with concerned eyes. "Do you think something happened in her relationship with her ex boyfriend or do you think that she starting to remember her past and maybe her father abused her?" She asked.

I flinched at the words relationship and abused.

"Okay. Rydel, go downstairs and keep an eye on the boys. I don't trust them" Stormie says.

Rydel chuckled leaving. The door closed which meant Rydel was out of the room.

"Aimee, please tell me what happened. Maybe I could help"

"Where's my mom?!" I cried.

"She's working!" She says. I just cried more.

"Aimee...?"

"R-Ross k-kissed me!" I managed to get out. I fell in Stormies arms and cried. "Do you think you didn't want him to kiss you because you're afraid he would do something your ex-boyfriend did?" She asked, making me flinch at the word ex-boyfriend.

"Aimee, whatever happened with your ex-boyfriend, just know that Ross won't do the same. He truly likes you Aimee and we all ship you two together. When he saw you cry that day your best friend kissed your ex-boyfriend, it broke his heart. He cares about you so much Aimee" Stormie says.

Stormie's POV
I hugged Aimee until she cried herself to sleep. I put her under the blankets and sighed. I turned the lights off and carefully tip toed my way out the bedroom.

I walk downstairs to see Rydel and Riker rubbing Ross's back and he was pulling his hair and sniffling.

"What happened?" I asked, kneeling in front of my son so he's looking down at me. A tear fell down his face.

"He thinks it's his fault that Aimee was freaking out!" Rydel answered me. "No baby!" I say, pushing his hair out of his face. "It's not your fault! You like her and you couldn't resist!" I added.

"Who doesn't like her? She's sexy!" Riker says and I give him a death glare.

"I better not hear you say that about my little sister again!" Connor asked, sounding pissed. I just rolled my eyes at the obnoxious boys.

"Listen sweetie! It isn't your fault. If anything, Aimee likes you too. You just gotta give her sometime" I say.

I then turned around so I could see everyone. "But we have to be careful with what we do and what we say around her. I have a feeling something happened in her past relationship or maybe she's starting to remember what happened with her dad and maybe he abused her or something but whatever it is, we have to and I mean HAVE to help her through it. We have to show her that she could always come to us and that she's not alone. She really does need someone!" I say. Everyone nods agreeing.
