Aiden carried Sarah to the bathroom, and they got in the shower together.
Her legs were shaky, so she clung onto him. He enjoyed the fact that she is in such a state because of him.
Aiden lathered her body gently, making sure no spot is left neglected before rinsing her carefully. He placed her in the tub full of warm water and bubbles and gave her a lingering kiss before going to shower himself.
Aiden got in the tub behind Sarah and pulled her to lean on him.
Sarah enjoyed feeling of his chest on her back. His arms covered hers and their fingers intertwined. 'Perfect', she thought.
"Why eight?", she asked suddenly.
"Eight what?"
"Eight bedrooms, eight chairs in dia room, eight chairs at the dining table, eight barstools at the poolside bar…", Sarah explained.
Aiden smiled. "You don't miss things…"
"I like to count, and sotis I notice patterns."
Aiden took his ti before responding. "So ti ago, I thought I had seven friends. When I started on this, my intention was to make a hangout place for us. Before this place was done, we were not friends. The end."
He did his best to sound detached, but that only told Sarah that it was sothing unpleasant to talk about.
"Oh…" Sarah was not sure how to respond to this. She had more than plenty of broken friendships. It's never easy to go through that.
Sarah was surprised that he said more: "You t two of them at Jeff's birthday party."
Sarah craned her neck to look at him, showing that she does not understand and needs more information.
"Do you rember Noah and Liam?", Aiden asked.
Sarah's brow furrowed when she rembered two guys who were hitting on Isabella and her, and they were not polite about it… it seems that there was so history behind that behavior. Sarah nodded in confirmation that she rembers. She forgot that she beat them up.
When she thinks about Noah and Liam, they were unpleasant toward Aiden and her, she can't imagine that they were on good terms previously. It seems that whatever happened between them was not a small thing. "I'm sorry."
"Don't be… It's not like I was the only one at a loss." He didn't want her to feel sorry for him. He does not deserve it.
Aiden saw Sarah looking at him questionably for a second before she gave up and turned away, leaning her back on him.
Sarah wanted to know what happened, but then decided not to probe into the topic. It's probably an unpleasant mory for him regardless if he was the victim or not. And no matter what happened, it does not concern her. It's in the past. If he wants to talk about it, he will.
"Sarah, I'm not a good guy… You had your share of trials, and you stayed true to yourself. As for … I gave in to my demons."
Aiden sees her as soone who is so good that nothing can corrupt her. Everyone she touches can't help but look her way with an urge to improve themselves. And he is happy that she is by his side. He believes that her light made him change his ways.
Sarah knows how it is when you are in a dark place, everyone faces challenges through life. She also knows that she is lucky to have a loving family who was by her side all the ti, supporting her and helping to fight off whatever ca her way.
When she looks at Aiden, she can tell that he is not close to his family how she is with hers, and he tends to keep his thoughts and feelings bottled up. And that can only put him into a situation that even if soone is willing to help him out, they don't know that he is in a need of help.
When she thinks that he was in a need of soone to listen, to help out, and he was all alone with no one to turn to, makes her heart ache.
"That does not make you a bad guy. That only ans that you were by yourself. But now you have ."
Her words made his heart swell. He thought how it's astonishing that soone like Sarah can love him.
Sarah observed his expression and can tell that he is troubled. It seems that whatever happened in the past is haunting him. She can only hope that her words give him so comfort and that he knows that he is not alone anymore.
"You can't change the past. Think of it as sothing that made you who you are now. And right now, I love you, and we are together. See the ring?" She lifted her left arm, showing the engagent ring. "The present is biggest, because it's the only thing that counts."
Aiden knows that she is not aware of his past, but her words made him feel that she accepts him unconditionally. It was a good feeling. "Thank you." He wrapped his arms around Sarah and rested his forehead on hers.
Sarah enjoyed his hug. His arms are firm and gentle and make her feel safe.
She tilted her head and kissed him. And he kissed her back.
His hug tightened as his lips moved to her neck and it felt so good that her fingers gripped his back, pulling him closer.
Aiden let out a low humming sound. "It seems your energy is back."
Sarah's body shivered. She knows what his words an, and she has no intention to deny it. His every kiss makes her more aware of the void in her lower abdon, throbbing from desire to feel him.
He moved to the middle of the large tub; she was on his lap, lost in his kiss.
Sarah was not aware at what point her body turned and she got on her knees, gripping the edge of the tub. Her eyes were closed in anticipation as he tilted her hips making her feel more exposed.
She almost lost her grip when she felt his kiss followed by his tongue exploring between her folds.
And then all the sounds stopped, except for her breathing… all feelings stopped, except for the one at the cradle of her thighs… all other senses shut down one by one before everything exploded.
Sarah was back in his lap.
"Do you need a minute?", his hot breath swept into her ear.
And she was back on her knees, gripping edge of the tub… Her gasps mixed with his grunts as he took her from behind.
…
"How was that?", Aiden asked as he caressed Sarah's cheek while laying next to her in the bed.
"Are you fishing for complints?", Sarah looked at that devilish smile of his which told her that he knows how THAT was. But he still wants to hear her say it.
"Will you give one?", he shalessly persisted.
She smiled and laced her fingers in his hair while giving him a long kiss. "It was amazing…", Sarah whispered and kissed him again.
Aiden let out a low humming sound of approval and cradled her in his arms. He took a deep breath, inhaling her scent and kissed her neck. "Mine…", he murmured.
…
"Let know when you want to eat. I will get food here… or do you want to eat downstairs?", Aiden didn't want to get out of the bed, but ti to eat passed long ago and he knows that Sarah must be hungry as well.
"I could eat. Here is perfect." Sarah didn't want to get out of the bed either. "Don't forget the ice cream…", her voice trailed off when she saw his mischievous smile.
"To eat!", she exclaid when she rembered what he did with the ice cream in the gazebo. He never admitted it, but she knows that he dripped ice cream in her cleavage on purpose.
He didn't respond, but his smile beca more mischievous sohow. He walked out to the living area.
"We are leaving in the morning… what do you want to do until then?", Aiden asked when he returned to bed a minute later.
Sarah hugged him and pulled him down on the bed. She rested her head on his shoulder. "Here is perfect… next to my fiancé."
She didn't want to do anything other than cuddle with him.
Aiden smiled and held her tightly.. He was happy.
