"Aiden..." I shake my head, eyes fixed anywhere but the gorgeous man next to me.
His hand grips my chin tightly, just enough to make me avert my eyes to his.
"You know you want this as much as I fucking do. I want you to be mine. I want to be the...

"Happy birthday!" My peaceful sleep is interrupted by Summer. I groan when she starts jumping on my bed, shaking me with her. "Wake up! Avery!" She whines, sitting down beside me and attempting to drag my precious pillow away from my face. "Thank you and no." I reply sleepily. My efforts of keeping the pillow on my face fail as it gets ripped away by not one, but two pairs of hands.
"Happy birthday sleepy head. I'm hungry and the guys won't let me eat until you come downstairs so hurry the fuck up." Zach's voice informs me. I'm up at the mention of food. Who wouldn't be?
I peak one eye open, "pancakes?" A lazy smile plays on my lips.
"What else?" He shrugs, smirking. I make a move to throw the covers off me but Summer stops me.
"I forgot." She suddenly says and next thing I know, tiny colourful pieces are being popped on my face and sadly on my bed.
"Happy birthday!"
She's so cleaning this up.
.......
I decide to stay in my pyjamas; grey shorts and tank top, and walk downstairs. It's my birthday and I'll spend the whole day at home, with no one but my family-for now-so there's no need to change. And I need to be comfortable.
Everyone greets me once in the kitchen, with hugs and wishes. The usual birthday stuff.
"I made you pancakes." Hunter gives me an innocent smile as he hands me a paperbox from the local diner, where I know he bought the pancakes from. But its pancakes and I love them so it doesn't really matter.
"What!? You said there was pancakes for all of us." Zach shouts. He should know by now. I mentally shake my head at him. This happens every year. Hunter 'makes' pancakes for me, but not for my brothers.
"I lied." He gives a glare back I roll my eyes and take a seat by the kitchen table and drench my pancakes in syrup. I love sweet things.
"Here, principessa." Xavier puts a caramel iced coffee next to the pancake box. See, caramel. It's sweet.
"Thank you." I smile, taking a sip.
I swear this thing tastes like heaven. Thank you, for founding Starbucks, whoever you are.
With a kiss ontop of my head, Xavier follows, Tristan and Hunter into his office.
"When's everyone coming over?" Parker asks after a while, playing with the cereal in his bowl as he does so.
"Nine, were going to set everything up around six, so we have time to get ready by the way." Summer answers and he nods but I know she isn't done. Far from it actually.
"We've invited all the seniors and Zach has also invited some of his friends, oh and the football team! All the hot guys will be here! I probably shouldn't have said that. Just don't tell Asher. But come on, Aves you'll have all the hot guys in your house! They'll walk on the floor you're walking on, they'll be here for our birthday party. Or at least I hope they know who's throwing the party. Oh em gee! Imagine if they didn't know that were throwing the party!? Actually I don't care. Oh! Tristan said that he would buy the alcohol and you guys just got to see the dresses I bought for me and Aves! They're skin-actually I won't tell you, it'll be a surprise, but they go with matching shoes and I just need you to open the present I got you! You'll love it, but Xavier said we'll have to wait 'till Aiden gets here, oh an-"
