Bad news is always served better in a pea coat that smells like Dirty English.

Trouble with a capital F

The doorbell rang as I was on the stairs, coming down to join the rest of the world after my jet lag hibernation. “I’ll get it,” I called out to Dad and Sheila and Jess. Rubbing my eyes, I opened the door to expect Aaron or Carter or Linna but what I found was way better.

“Hi.” Aiden offered me a smile.

“You’re here,” I said in disbelief.

“For you.”

“Oh my God!” I jumped him, flying into his arms and kissing him. I didn't care that the last time we’d talked I’d bitched him out for the tabloids and being publicly shamed and Alex.

He squeezed so hard my ribs ached from the embrace as he folded himself around me. “Fin,” he said with relief, “I missed you being part of my air.” He inhaled me, burrowing into my hair and neck.

“I can’t believe you still came.” I pulled back and pressed my lips against his before he could say anything. I closed my eyes and melted into the kiss as it grew from surprise to desire, then words we didn't have chance to say yet. It had been weeks since we’d seen each other. There was a lot to say. Particularly after my classes at school had gone so poorly. I was the talk of campus and everyone was either #TeamFin or they were #FintheFake fans. My pictures were everywhere. Eating in the hall was out of the question. I couldn't even get across the country without people stopping me. The airport had been brutal. My choices had been either a hoodie and sunglasses like a criminal or a million bad photos.

But he was here and none of that other stuff mattered.

His hands roamed down my back to my butt as he stepped into the house, lifting me into his arms. I wrapped my legs around his waist as he walked blindly in and closed the door, leaning against it.

My warm hands cupped his cold cheeks, clinging to him as we settled arguments and attacked one another with the emotions that were left over from weeks of being strong. I slid my hands into his hair, kissing him like never before. But he was the same, furious or desperately upset about the situation we found ourselves in. He shared himself with me, without saying a single word.

A soft moan escaped my lips as he trailed his lips and kisses along my cheek and neck. I struggled from his arms and turned to run back up the stairs, to drag him with me, but my dad was in the foyer, grinning. “Aiden, my boy. You came! Fin didn’t think you would.” He clasped his hands and walked toward us, interrupting what was about to be epic.

Disappointment crushed me, leaving my lips as a slight sigh.

“Sir, it’s nice to see you again.” Aiden was trying to get his breath, but he held out his hand for my father to shake, while smiling calmly like we hadn’t just been making out mercilessly.
