"What?" I say confused at the sudden change of conversation.

"Lets plan a date" he says smiling as he takes a sharp left.

"But we just got engaged and I just started school. I don't think diving into the wedding is a good idea. I want to atleast graduate" I say as I tie my hair into a ponytail.

"I don't see what the problem is? We are practically married" Aiden says as he grips the steering wheel.

"There isn't a problem. I just think we are rushing things" I say softly not wanting him to get angry.

His knuckles turn white as he grips the wheel tighter, "Are you having second thoughts? Because if you are I'd atleast like to know. Or is it that your fucking that Daniel guy"

I flinch at his choice of words, "Fuck you Aiden" I say angrily biting my lip.

"I've already been betrayed once by my last fiancée. I don't want a repeat of history so I'd rather know because I care out you more than I could ever care for her" he says as he harshly brakes and I see we are outside a restaurant.

"Despite what you might think I do actually love you. You want to know why I don't want to get married yet? Because I'm scared, when you lash out and be angry with me I can handle it. But I know if we get married you'll want children and I don't want to bring any kids into this relationship. Us. We aren't healthy. We fight and fuck and pretend everything's okay. But we ain't, are we?" I say hot tears rolling down.

He sighs, running his hand through his soft hair. "But we are happy, atleast I am"

"I'm happy as well. But this is exactly why I wanted a break from you. To get some space. Instead it hasn't worked".

"I love you so much it hurts" he says looking at me. His dark blue eyes seem so bright.

I run my hand through his hair. "I'm hungry shall we go inside?" I ask. Looking the other way.

I hear him sigh again and get out the car. I follow as he grabs my hand and hands the key to the door man.
As we walk deeper in I realise there is guards everywhere.

We take a seat, both of us still quiet and brooding from our argument. The door opens and Gabriel walks towards us hurriedly.

"What the fuck Gabriel? I'm busy" Aiden says angry.

I keep quiet as I pretend to look at my menu.

"I just saw Caleb" he says out of breath as he takes a seat next to Aiden.

I snap my menu shut suddenly on edge.

"Where did you see him?" Aiden asks. I can see he's worried, he only runs his hand through his hair when he's stressed.

"I was in your apartment and I saw him looking at Alessias bedroom window outside" Gabriel explains.

"Wait was you doing in our bedroom?" I say confused.

"Err... I was kind of looking through your underwear" he says looking at Aiden.

Aiden punches him right in the face. No one seems to look our way, I'm guessing they own this place as well. I cringe at the thought of Gabriel looking through my things.

Gabriel holds his nose but doesn't retaliate. I think he knows not to try Aiden right now.

"Did he see you see him?" Aiden asks.

"No"

Aiden calls up someone. He talks fast and quiet. After a couple of minutes he hangs up.

"Right what do you want to eat babe? Also Gabriel do you mind taking that bleeding nose somewhere else. I'm trying to have dinner with my fiancée" Aiden says calmly skimming the menu.

Me and Gabriel look at each other confused. Gabriel shrugs his shoulders and walks out.

"Aiden? Calebs alive and he knows where we are. Doesn't that bother you" I say.

"Of course it bothers me. But we need to eat don't we? Besides I have it under control" he says smoothly.

I stare at him incredulously before looking down at my menu. The waiter comes to us, she must be the same age as me. Her eyes light up as she takes Aiden in. He seems preoccupied with the menu.

She turns to me and I give her a dirty look.

"Hi my names Lily, I'll be your server today. What would you like to order?" She says looking directly at Aiden.

"I'll have the chicken pasta with salad and your best glass of wine" he turns to me.

"I'll have the same please but just water" I say quietly. She scribbles everything down and I look out the window. It's been a weird day, first Gabriel turning up then my fight with Aiden and then this Caleb situation. I feel drained.

I look at Aiden to see him gazing at me, his face slightly tilted to his side like he's trying to figure me out.
"You look tired" he admits.
"I am"

He grabs my chin forcing me to scoot to the edge of the chair.

"You know I love you right" he says softly.
"I'd like to think so" I say softly back.

He pecks my nose and moves to break away but I surprise him by pulling his face to meet my mouth.
I kiss him hungrily, pouring all my emotions into the kiss. He responds back running his hands through my hair.

We hear someone cough and I break away  as I see our waiter standing with our drinks. I blush embarrassed and look down while Aiden keeps his gaze on me. She sets out glasses down and scurries off.

I take a sip of my water as Aiden sips his wine. Meeting his gaze I giggle.

"What's funny" he says.

"You've got lipgloss on your face" I say grinning.

He winks and I lean over to rub the stains off his face.

"You do realise I can see down your top at this angle" he says as I rub the lipgloss off.

Sure enough I look down and I see my bra and the top of my breasts.
Sitting back in my seat I say "Your such a pervert"

"For you? Alway" he says laughing as I roll my eyes playfully.

As our food arrives and as we eat I watch Aiden. We argue so much but I love him so much. Looking down at my ring I realise that I can't wait to marry this man. How could I ever imagine myself with anyone else now that I've been with Aiden?

My eyes drift to the window and I stop eating as I I'm sure I've seen Caleb. Looking closer there's no one there. Shaking my head I carry on eating. I'm just being paranoid... I hope so anyway.
