Stopping in the midst of the multitude, her green luggage on her right hand and her white handbag on the other hand. Black shades on her face with her colorful long hair falling down her shoulders. She spread her arms wide breathing in. "Aww...the smell of home. How long has it been?" She smiles broadly with her eyes closed.
"Giving up is never in my dictionary...today you're caught Robin Huston," a small petite lady sneaks behind Robin with a camera in her hand. She wore large glasses as a disguise and a muffler around her neck, covering half of her face with it as well. She was obviously stalking him.
Robin keeps looking back as he walks as fast as he could. He holds onto his hoodie which is covering half of his face, his long legs finding their way through the crowd of people at the airport.
"Oh yeah...I knew it! I knew it!!" The lady, who was actually a reporter, snaps her fingers together, hiding behind a bench. She stares intently at the lady spreading her arms out, smiling, and also Robin who was walking towards her. "Finally, jackpot!" She brings forward her camera, taking different shots, though she couldn't get her face.
Robin, getting the instinct that he's being followed, keeps looking back and on doing so, he crashes into Addison. Addison staggers back almost losing her balance, but she gains her composure back by holding onto Robin tightly.
"Yes!" The lady keeps taking numerous pictures of them. The way they were holding each other made it seem like they were actually embracing.
Robin instantly pulls her away forcefully, but Addison groans the moment he does that. He frowns the moment he realizes her hair got tangled with his pendant.
"Wait...wait a minute," Addison mutters trying to get her hair off while Robin stands impatiently waiting for her to.
"Wow can't believe they're even doing this in public...do you think you will not be caught?" The reporter mutters in hiding, still taking their pictures which looks like they are kissing.
Addison is still trying to get her hair from his pendant when Robin suddenly grabs her, taking her to God knows where.
"Hey! It hurts!" Addison groans as he pulls her along.
"Oh!" The reporter stands up to follow them but bumps into someone. She goes flat on the floor with her camera while the person she bumped into gasps lightly.
"Oh, my! Are you okay, miss?" A soft, cool voice asks, and she can't help getting carried away by just the voice alone. She raises her head just to find one of the cutest guys on planet earth smiling down at her.
"Not... I'm not okay," she replies senselessly.
"I'm so sorry...I was in a rush," he helps her up while she drools with her mouth hanging.
"Oh, my gawd...you're so cute," she gushes while he chuckles.
"Are you sure you're okay? Here," he bends, picking up her camera.
"Your camera," he smiles with cuteness.
"My camera..." she repeats, collecting it like someone completely hypnotized.
"My camera! Oh!" She gasps loudly.
"Camera!!" She starts looking around.
"Where is he?"
"Is everything okay? Who?"
"My future! F**k!" She rushes away, pushing Aiden, who had a confused look, aside.
"Not done yet!" Robin grumbles, tapping his foot on the ground.
"If I could get one more hand who knows, it might come off," Addison snaps back, getting pissed off at the hair that won't come off.
"Flight 101 to Texas boarding now through gate three...dear passengers, please make your way forward," an announcement booms out on board.
"Shit!" Robin checks his wristwatch only to see he has no more time to linger. He looks at Addison, who was still struggling with the hair on his pendant, and groans inwardly.
"Just take it," he pulls the pendant off, placing it on her palm. Addison looks up at him and gapes at the sight she saw. This guy is damn cute to the moon. She can't help drooling as she stares at him. Robin gives her a look before rushing off, covering his face properly with the hoodie.
"The heck," Addison watches as he disappears into the crowd of people. She brings her face back to the pendant and smiles. It's a guitar. He must love music. She thought. She wears the pendant over her neck, not even bothering to loosen the tangled hair again.
"How sweet..." She mutters, looking at it.
"ADDIE!!!" She hears a familiar voice and snaps her head up.
"AID!!" She yells back on seeing Aiden, who is waving at her and grinning at the same time from a distance. They both run to each other, and as soon as they're together, instead of embracing, they rub their hairs against each other's, giggling like babies.
"Bro!" Aiden hugs her after they finish their hair rubbing.
Sis!" Addison wraps her arms around him tightly as he carries her, twirling her around.
It's been forever!" Aiden says after dropping her.
Tell me about it. Where's MD?" She asks, looking around.
Home, they're waiting. Let's go."
Let's goooo!!!" She links hands with him, and Aiden takes her luggage with his other hand. They walk out of the airport in happiness, beaming at each other.
(AT BECKETT'S MANSION)
"The QUEEN is BACKKKKK!!!" Addison bounced inside the house, twirling and giggling simultaneously. "Where's my Red carpet? Why can't I see anything on the damn floor?" She crutches dramatically.
"My little bunny," her mother exclaimed, coming from the dining.
"My sweet daughter," her father followed.
"M! D!!" She ran to her parents, crashing into them.
"My goodness, I missed you two like Crazy," she kissed both their cheeks, making a pouting sound.
"We missed you too, dear... in fact, we've been awaiting your arrival."
"I cooked your special. Come on, let's eat. Come on, Aiden," Mrs. Beckett walked to the dining, and the others followed suit.
"Wow. I can smell it already!" She took her seat.
"Are your dishes still the best, M?"
"No, dear, her hands are failing these days," Mr. Beckett replied.
"Really, M? Is that true!" Her eyes widened.
"My hands are failing, but his taste buds are declining also," Mrs. Beckett retaliated jokingly.
(They all laughed.)
After breakfast, "Aren't, you're going to show me around the town."
"Shouldn't you rest for today? You just came back. Today should be for us spending time together, catching up."
"M, D, we still have many days for that. I just want to go out with Aid today since he won't have time to do that after he leaves. I came back practically for this."
"Mom, she's right. I'll be leaving tomorrow, so I won't have time to spend with her, remember?" Aiden added. Mrs. Beckett sighed in defeat.
"Sweet daughter, isn't your brother great to have got accepted into the band?"
"Beats me. He has grown so much that I'm so happy for him. If I were a fox or a dog, you'd have seen my tail wagging about," she joked, making them all laugh.
"I'm so proud of you, sis," she ruffled Aiden's hair while Aiden grabbed her hand.
"You're touching a star's hair...be careful, or my fans are going to eat you raw!"
"Do you even have any? Uh? Uh?" She continued ruffling it.
"Alright, eat fast, I've got something to show you."
"Can't wait," Addison squealed.
"So, tell me about this SB (Starr Boyz)."
"Umm...Finn, Bin, and Ash. Bin is the vocalist and their leader. He's my role model."
"And..."
"My crush."
"Don't tell me you're going into this band solely because you've got a thing for him?"
"Well...partly."
"Ohh come on, sis...don't be foolish."
"I'm not...I just like him, that's all. Come on, you asked me to show you around...where do you want to go first?" He smiled, taking her hand.
"Anywhere fun!"
(SHOUT OUT KARAOKE)
"AMOR FATI!!! YEAH! HOO!!" Addison breathed out heavily after ending the song. She stared at the machine intently as it counted her scores.
"93 %" It displayed, and she screamed into the mic in excitement.
"WHO IS THE BEST!!"
"YOU'RE THE BEST!!" Aiden shouted back from where he was seated.
"I CAN'T HEAR YOUUUUU!!!"
"YOU'RE THE BEST BROOOO!!!" Aiden shouted again, and she winked, going to where Aiden was seated.
"Wow...bravo!! That was excellent!!" He applauded her, while she flaunted her hair proudly, dropping the mic.
"You still sing so well...just like before."
"It's been a while since I sang...now my throat hurts," she stretched her hand forward to his lips, picked the crumbs there, and put them in her mouth.
Aiden knocked her forehead.
"Ouch!!" She winced, glaring at him.
"What was that for?" She scowled.
"I thought you stopped doing that?"
"What?!"
"What you did just now!"
"Ahhh...that. I did. I did, but...you know...your habit can't just leave you like that. I'm F (fucking) addicted," she replied, taking the beer on the table.
"Try to get over it...it won't be good if you do that to other people. They will mistake you for a psycho."
"Then I'll just become one for them."
"Seriously, you!"
"Should I follow you to the agency...I want to see how it is," she suddenly grinned.
"I'm sorry, Addison, but...you know I'm just getting started...I don't want them to know I have a twin. It might bring a setback."
"I feel like I'm a jinx."
"No, you're not."
"Why hide it then...I don't understand?"
"Come on...can't you understand me?"
"I can't understand the situation either...I just came back after years, and now you're leaving."
"I'll never stop contacting you."
She smiled.
"Live well with your crush...I know you're damn excited."
"So much," he beamed.
"Gosh...I'm so proud of you, sis," Addison ruffled his hair.
"I'll let you go for now...just wait till I become famous. I'll arrest you for this," he joked, while she smacked his occiput.
"ADDISON!"
"Now you sound like a man," she grinned, while he scoffed. His eyes caught the pendant around her neck, and he couldn't help but stare.
"Why?" Addison asked, noticing him staring.
"That...where did you get it?" He questioned, pointing to the pendant.
"Ohh...this," she smiled knowingly, remembering the hoodie guy.
"I feel like I've seen it before somewhere," Aiden muttered, taking his eyes from hers.
"Addie!" He snapped his fingers in front of her face when he realized she wasn't listening to him anymore. She seemed to have zoned out into her own world.
"Snap out of it, will you?"
She chuckled.
"Do you like it? You want it?"
"No...it seems precious. You can keep it."
"I was going to," Addison stuck her tongue out at him. He smiled.
"Let's go watch a movie after this."
"Anything you want, Milady," he bowed slightly.
"You should go sing too."
"After I use the restroom," he stood up.
"Relieve your bladder and nothing more. No FK (Fucking) in the restroom, twinnie," she teased him.
"Shut up, Addie," Aiden chuckled, going out.
(MINUTES LATER)
"Is he really fucking a bitch in the restroom?" Addison asked herself when Aiden wouldn't come back.
She got up and went out of the room, bouncing. But just as she got out, she halted when some hefty men who clearly looked like thugs trooped out of the room just beside hers. They all had mean looks on their faces and looked dangerous. She froze where she was as they all passed her by.
"Phew!" She heaved, holding her chest after they'd all left.
"What was that?" She walked slowly and gently to the room they came out from. The door was open, so she was able to take a peek inside.
She gasped when she saw how scattered and rough the room was. Traces of blood were even on the floor. Something had definitely happened in there. What if someone had died?
Letting her curiosity get the best of her, she walked slowly inside the room, but immediately she did, a hand covered her mouth from behind. She gasped. Her eyes dilated in their sockets.
Her back was against a really broad, hard chest she could tell. The person's chest went up and down, indicating he or she was breathing heavily. An unfamiliar smell hit her nose...it was a pleasant one, but she couldn't tell what it was.
"You know, right...that curiosity kills the cat," a male voice came from behind her ear.
It was cold and enchanting at the same time.
Finn slowly retracted his hand from her mouth, while she released a heavy breath.
"And satisfaction brought it back," she spun around instantly, but before she could catch a glimpse of his face, Finn pulled her head towards his chest. Her head landed there, and she could hear his rapid heartbeats.
She wasn't left out either.
Her heart skipped a beat at their proximity.
She had never been that close to any guy like that except Aiden.
Well...there was the hoodie guy at the airport earlier.
Was it her luck today to hug guys whose faces she couldn't even see well?
Finn's hand remained at the back of her head, not making her back away.
Addison could feel some liquid on her hand as she held onto him. She brought her hand forward and gasped when she saw it was soiled with his blood.
"Blood..." She muttered.
Finn exhaled.
That's when she realized he was breathing heavily because he was in pain. Those thugs must have done this to him.
"You're bleeding," she forced herself out of his hold and almost immediately, Finn wore his face cap on her head, bolting out of the room before she could know it.
She touched her head, removing the face cap and looking at it.
"Wait..." She ran out of the room but couldn't find him anymore. She exhaled and looked at her soiled hand.
"It must hurt..." She muttered, making her way to the restroom to clean herself up. By the time she got back to the room, Aiden was already there.
"Why? You needed an urgent FK too?" Aiden joked.
"So, you admit that's what you went there to do?" She smirked.
"I went to take a dump."
"Good for you. Let's go...I'm suddenly tired."
"Wow...that's a surprise."
"Yeah..." She took her bag. Strangely, her mood suddenly went down after meeting that strange guy earlier. She couldn't help but worry.
"Go ahead...I'll just settle the bills."
"Meet me at the car garage," she excused herself.
"What's with her suddenly..." Aiden muttered.
"Where are you? I'm already there, just wait! I'll be there in a jiffy, don't make a move, and just ow!" Ash's phone fell from his hands as he suddenly bumped into someone. He picked up the phone and tried to move, but the person pulled him back before he could.
"Ash? Oh, my gosh, ASH!!" The high schooler he bumped into squealed in excitement.
"Shh...yeah, it's me. Don't make a noise, can you_"
"Girls, it's ASH!!!" The high schooler alerted her friends before he could finish his statement.
"No shit!" He cursed under his breath as he got flooded immediately.
"He's so handsome!"
"Wow, I can't believe I'm touching him!"
"I love you so much, Ash!"
"Take a picture with me!"
"Go out with me!!"
"I wanna be your Cinderella!!"
"Kiss me, Ash!!"
"He's so fucking hot!!"
Ash wiggled uncomfortably as the girls touched and swarmed around him, almost ripping him apart.
"IT'S FINN AND BIN!" He pointed forward, and they all diverted their attention to where he was pointing. As soon as they did this, Ash took to his heels without wasting any second.
"F**k this!" He groaned as the girls clung onto him, almost ripping him apart.
(CAR GARAGE)
"Why isn't he coming?" Addison, who had been waiting for Aiden, muttered impatiently, dialing his number, but then it started ringing from the car.
"Tf!" She peeked into the car and saw his phone on the back seat.
"He left it." She opened the door to take the phone, but then her back crashed onto the seat when someone suddenly pushed her in, closing the car door.
"WTF!" She scowled, while the guy placed his second finger on her lips.
"Shh! It's me. I've got some crazy fans after me, and I mustn't be caught, or the president will kill me...just let me hide here for a few minutes. It'd be nice if you kept quiet also," Ash said in a rush. Her eyebrows quirked.
"Do I look like I give a Fucking damn? Get out now or I drag you out myself with your Fucking dick," she barked back at him, but Ash only smiled.
"It'll only take a while," he said, and before she could process anything, his lips pressed against hers. Her eyes widened.
Addison froze like a statue as Ash's lips remained on hers. After what seemed like forever, he finally unlocked looking out the window.
I think they're gone now, He smiles and then face Addison.
Thanks, babe" He winks at her before leaving the car and Addison finds herself waving at him as he went out.
Hey! Bro!" Aiden snaps his fingers on her face jerking her off.
Oh, Aiden...when did you get here? Where is he?" She started looking around for Ash.
What are you saying? Are you sure you're, okay? You zoned off again. I've been calling your name for almost a minute, but you just went on a trance.
Noth..Ing is wrong with me. You talk too much get in the car and let go, She clears her throat whilst Aiden gave her a suspicious look before getting in the driver's seat.
You should come to the front I'm, not your chauffeur, Aiden said behind the steering wheel.
I'm going to take a nap...wake me when we get home... She laid her back on the seat.
Hit the road...chauffeur Aid, She joked.
Yes, ma'am" Aiden sneered igniting the engine.
Addison close her eyes hugging the face cap to herself remembering the sudden kiss Ash gave her.
She chuckles. Aiden who looks at her from the rear mirror shook his head.
"She's definitely not normal" He mutters.
(ADDISON'S ROOM)
Addison slumps on the bed after getting to her room. Her eyes facing the ceiling, she brought the pendant on her neck forward looking at it smiling sleeplessly at the same time. She looks to her side and her eyes caught the face cap Finn wore on her also.
I wonder if he's okay...gosh I'm so worried" She squeals then sighs. She touched her lips.
I'm finally going out of my senses...sweet things just happened to me today" She laid on her chest burying her face in the bed.
Coming to Texas may have been the best decision of my life...I'm so happy gosh!" She rolled from one side to the other on the bed hitting her legs on it squealing in excitement at the same time.
A knock came on the door followed by Aiden's head sticking in.
"Hey bro" He smiles going in fully.
"Why? Too excited to sleep?" Addison asked sitting up.
"Hmm...I'm so happy" He grins.
Addison pats the bed, and he went on it sitting beside her.
"Addie" He called.
"Hmm"
"I feel scared."
"Why?"
"Because...I'm finally getting what I want...for a long time now"
"It's happening"
"Addie...if by any means possible I wasn't able to complete what I've started...can you promise me...you'll try your best...to at least make it possible. You won't just give up on me or our dreams".
"Hey what are you saying? Don't jinx it...it's not our dreams anymore...it's yours now".
"It's just that...I'm so happy that I fear...it may not come true. We are one remember...promise me bro. I know somewhere in you...you still badly want to chase after that dream".
"Maybe I should smack you instead...come here you twat!"
"Hey! You're hitting a star".
"Which star? Porn star or Starbucks!"
"Addie seriously!!"
She laughs.
"Come here my star" She threw her arms around it.
"I'm so happy and proud of you. Don't worry you'll do just well".
Aiden wrapped his arms around her also smiling.
"I won't let you down...I promise."
NEXT DAY.
"BM (Beautiful morning) Mom, Dad" Addison greeted kissing their cheeks.
"My sweet daughter"
"Morning my dear"
"Hmm...I can smell something tantalizing" she beams taking her seat.
"Ohhh it's chinkennnnn! " She enthused taking one into her mouth.
"But where's Sis?"
"He went for his morning exercise...he should be on his way back."
"Oh really! Hmm...this taste so Grrrreat!" She moans in relish licking her fingers.
***
Aiden sang along to one of the STARR BOYZ' song titled 'Pleasure' which he's listening to through the earphones as he jogs.
You fill me up My heart is into yoo-hoo Hoo! pleasure in my heart
He suddenly stops jogging when he saw a guy running towards him and not only that, but cops also seem to be running after him.
He had a lady's purse with him, so he presumed him to be a pickpocket.
That's none of his business anyway and the cops are already chasing him.
Moreso, what can he even do interfering? He was just as fragile as a lady.
He decided to give way to the criminal.
The pickpocket looks back and sees that the cops are already catching up. Finding a way to save himself, he spots Aiden who gives way to him as he ran. Smirking sinisterly, he decided to use him to protect himself.
Aiden gasp as the pickpocket suddenly grabbed him, and as if that wasn't enough, he brought out a pen knife aiming it at his neck.
The cops halted.
"I'll kill him...move back!" He threatens the cop which surrenders. Aiden was already shaking as the penknife sliced his neck. Blood dripping down.
"Please let...me go..." He whimpers.
"Shut it!" The pickpocket started drifting to the road with Aiden whom he held as hostage. The cops follow slowly also.
"Don't fret...he can't do a thing to you" One of the cops assured Aiden.
"Let him go and drop the bag and we won't go after you anymore," The same cop said to the pickpocket.
"As if..."
"I promise"
"After I cross..."He drifted to the road as soon as the traffic light changed to red.
Cars started coming to a halt abruptly as he ran across the road pushing Aiden who fell to the ground. With shaky legs, he tried standing but then he heard a loud blaring, looking up at it, his eyes widened to see a big trunk driving at full speed toward him. Within seconds, the trunk crashes him over. The force threw him up. He somersaulted in the air before reaching for the ground and rolling on it with blood gushing out.
