Kristen pov

               " There's no way Xander is coming back here, you told him no right?? Mom tell me you told him no" I could tell he was really angry by the news. Who is Xander and why is Aiden so angry because he was coming back, Im so confused.

" mom" he yelled

" Aiden calm down" I tried to hold his hands but he snatched it away from me.

" dont tell me to calm down Kristen, this has nothing to do with you." I could tell he was furious but that doesn't mean he should talk to me that way.

" I was only trying to..." he cut me off

" shut up, this has nothing to do with you " I opened my mouth to say something but no words could come out. I couldn't believe Aiden would talk to me like that.

" Aiden you need to calm down okay " Ava said

        " did you know about this Ava?? Did you agree to it??" She bowed her head " Mia you too??, I can't believe it. You all know that he did to me." He yelled, he grabbed the chair and threw it at the wall, His mum got up immediately.

" he left because of you in the first place,  he's your brother, for God's sake let it go." She was almost crying.

" No, he won't come back here" Aiden shrieked

" doesn't matter what you say" Olivia cleaned her tears and folded her arms together " you are also going to let him work with you " she finished

" Thats not happening " he began to walk up the stairs.

" he's miserable Aiden, he needs your help " Olivia said a little louder

" no way" he slammed the door as soon as he got inside the room.

     Olivia walked up to me " im sorry, he's still learning to control his anger issues. You know how Xander irks him. I looked up to her and I nodded negatively.

" he didn't tell you about Xander??" She asked in disbelief.

" he never mentioned he had a brother, what happened between them??" I asked

" I would let him tell you himself, he will let you know when he is ready. You should go talk to him" Olivia walked away.

" I don't think that's a good idea" i wouldn't go in there when I know all he's going to do is yell.

" C'mon Kristen " Mia said " he's going to listen to you I'm sure.

I don't want to do this,  I know he can't control his anger and I can be very sensitive, I walked up the stairs as slow as I could.

You shouldn't be scared Kristen, he's just human, just walk up to him and ask him a few questions, that's all.

           I opened up the door, and stucked my head in. He wasn't in the bedroom but I could hear the water running. I decided to wait for him, I picked up my phone and played some games, I paused the games as soon as I heard the bathroom door come open .

" Aiden, hey we need to... holy moly" I turned around immediately i realized he was  butt naked. I heard him chuckle, I could hear him wander around .

" I'm done, you can turn around now "  I turned around as slow as I can, he changed into a black sweat pants with grey top. " I was sweating too much,  I needed the bath, and lucky you, you got to see me naked " he laughed.

" uh, you conceited, self centered, arrogant, piece of shit" he smirked and sat on one side of the bed

" I like it when you are being tough, you look adorable " he smirked

" tough and adorable don't align" I frowned.

" exactly " he seem to be in an a better mood cos he's grinning ear to ear.

" Aiden, I know you don't want to talk about this but why didn't you tell me you had a brother " I asked, playing with my fingers.

" you are right Kristen, I don't want to talk about him. He's not part of my life anymore, don't ask anything else " he tried to control his anger.

" I know you dislike him but would you please just listen to your mom and give him a job and...."

" no" he shouts.

" c'mon,  its not like he would stay at your place, he would be here and you would hardly see his face at work,  you both will be too busy to.. "

" I said no " he shouts. This is becoming unbearable, i stand up immediately, im going to take my stand.

" you know you shouldn't yell at me, what the hell would your own brother do to you that would make you hate him so much?? You should forgive him no matter what it is" I yell back.

" why don't you forgive your so called ex bestfriend and your ex too uhhn? "  I gasped, I wasn't expecting that from him at all, that hit me so hard.

" I didn't mean to Kristen im so..."

" save it " i walked out immediately.

         I wouldn't want to cry in front of the rest of the family so I decided to hold it in together. Maybe doing this and getting involved in the whole of this is a bad idea. I just want to go home, but it would ruin the whole plan. I don't want to disappoint Olivia, she's too sweet to be hurt.

" Kristen?" I looked up and I saw Olivia by the door.  " I was just going out to the garden,  would you like to come with me?"  I do need to get my head cleared.

"  sure "

***

     " I love the garden, the flowers are really beautiful"  we were sitting at the middle of the garden on a bench.

" Aiden's dad knew how much I loved flowers and he got me a whole garden" she giggled.

" that's really beautiful, he must really love you" I smiled.

" he did" she said " he died of a heart attack, we couldn't save him on time, that was his first attack "

" I'm so sorry "

" it's okay, Kristen. You know Aiden isn't  really like that. He changed right  after he and Madison ended things.

        So, that's her name, he  must have really loved her and he might have taken it so hard.

" he's going to change, I have a feeling he would change for you sweetheart, you've endured him for so long so I'm sure you can change him, I know you can" she held my hand in hers.

Only if she knows how fake this is

" we should get back inside Kristen "

We got up and walked back into the house.

" hey Kristen, Aiden just asked if you, you should check on him " Ava said as I got into the house.

What does he want now ?? Hasn't he done enough already?

" thanks " I walked back upstairs, I opened up the door and he had his phone to his ears.

" Kristen, I was told you went out with mum, I just realized that I don't have your number, can I have your number please?" He said as he walked up to me but I didn't say anything because I was still mad at him.

Hs grabbed my face in his hands " im sorry Kristen, I didn't mean to upset you. It just came out from my mouth." I only stared at him.

" would you forgive me if I give Xander a job?" I smiled

" okay " then he hugged me.
