Chapter 24

Danielle flipped me off through the window. Damn she is pissed and I knew it. Danielle being the respectful person, she would never cussed or even think about flipping anyone off. I couldn't help but chuckle before she walked away from the window. "Shit" I said under my breath.

I send her a text Danielle, Let me explain to you what happened. Please.

I waited for what felt like forever for a response.

I will meet you at the park. I nodded at the phone knowing she didn't see before I texted back.

Okay I will see you there.

It was close to 4am before I saw Danielle coming in her car. I am so nervous and I do not have a clue of what I am going to say but Danielle has the right to know.

"Danielle, you have to know that I love you so damn much." I tell her. If anything she had to know that. "I was upset that you kept this project a secret from me."

"No Aiden, don't lie to me." Danielle interrupts me.

"Okay, I was more pissed that this project involves that damn teachers." I admit

"That damn teachers name is Matt! " Danielle begins to yell.

First Danielle flips me off , now she is saying cuss words. This is some crazy shit.

"Matt has nothing to do with this. How could you sleep with Stephanie?!?" Danielle asks as she is about to cry.

"What? Danielle, I didn't. I wouldn't do that to you." I declared.

"For the love of god Aiden, don't lie to me. I know you went upstairs with her. I may be naive and inexperienced but I am not stupid" Danielle yells

"Danielle." I begin to say before she interrupts me again.

"Tell me Aidne. Did you take Stephanie upstairs into your room?" Danielle is demanding answers and there was no way in hell she is giving up so easy.

I nodded.

"I bet she was even in your bed."

I looked down at the ground.I couldn't look her in the eyes. "Danielle it's not what you think." I reach out to touch her to bring her back to me. My heart shattered when she stepped away..

"Aiden I can't do this anymore." Danielle tells me

"What are you trying to say?" I ask knowing exactly what she means.

"I am done." Danielle looks around breaking eye contact. Of course no one would be here at this time of the day.

"I had everything figured out Aiden. I was going to travel the world. I wanted to master photography and journalism. I was willing to give that all up. I was going to give it up for us. I was a fool! You wouldn't even give up surfing to be here with me. This distance between us was never going to work. I was the dumbass to fall in love with you to begin with." Danielle was crying and it took everything in me not to hold her in my arms.

"Do you love me?" I asked begging for her to say it out loud. I have told her so many times that I loved her but not once did she say it to me.

Danielle looks down and I can feel the distance between us.

"Danielle look me in the eyes. I am begging you to tell me how you feel." I plea .

If this relationship was going to end right in front of me,I had to know that Danielle loved me because the love I had for her was everything.

Why did it matter if I told Aiden I loved him or not. I was done, this whole relationship has blown up in my face. I was looking at my feet not able to look at him.

"Danielle look me in the eyes. I am begging you to tell me how you feel."

I looked up at Aiden and told him because it's not like I had anything else to lose.

"Aiden, I love you." I whispered

Aiden ran straight towards me and kissed me. This kiss was different because we were both saying goodbye. I couldn't help but be selfish because I didn't want to say goodbye. I for sure didn't want the kiss to end.
