Steven stood up and walked closer to Aiden.
“Look, I tried my best to stay away from her, I really did but I love Andrea and I can't stay away from her anymore" Steven said in one breath.
“You broke bro code"
“I know"
“That's like the most common one. Out of all the girls in school, it just had to be my sister. Do you know I'm even more mad at you guys for not telling me all these years? Have you slept with her?" Aiden narrowed his eyes on Steven as Steven's face flushed from embarrassment.
“Yes," He uttered. Aiden groaned.
“God damnit" Aiden whispered. Silence passed between them. Aiden sighed.
“If you hurt my sister, I'll castrate you" Aiden warned. Steven looked up at him happily.
“I won't, I promise," Steven said, smiling.
“Don't smile at me dumbass or I might just punch you again"..
“So, how are you feeling about this whole situation?" Rose asked Andrea as they walked back to the penthouse. Andrea sighed.
“I'm happy he found out but he shouldn't have beat up Steven that badly although Steven deserved it. I told him multiple times to tell Aiden because I know how my brother thinks and behaves" Andrea told her.
“What about you? How's everything going with you and Aiden?" Andrea asked.
“Well.... I took your advice and I'm trying to live in the moment, let loose and forget all my burdens. I just want to do what makes me happy, at least for this vacation" Rose mumbled. The both halted in front of the penthouse door.
“So what happens after the vacation?" Andrea questioned. The door opened before Rose could say anything and Steven came out. He looked over at Andrea and smiled. Andrea walked up to him.
“What did he say? Did he threaten you?" She questioned.
“I almost punched him too but there was no space to land my fist" Aiden said from behind Steven. Andrea went over to hug him.
“I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier, I didn't mean to keep it from you" Andrea murmured. Aiden sighed as he caressed her hair.
“Don't hide things like this from me again, alright?" Andrea nodded. He smiled down at her.
“Well, now that's over, I'm going to rest a little, my face hurts pretty bad" Steven mumbled and walked away. Aiden chuckled.
“I'm even surprised you didn't lose a tooth, '' Aiden teased. Andrea moved away from him and pouted at Aiden. He groaned.
“Fine, go with him" She smiled brightly at him before running after Steven. Rose turned to Aiden.
“How are you feeling?" She asked. He smiled while opening his arms wide for her. She walked right into it and snuggled his chest.
“I'm not mad about it, Steven's a great guy and I know he will be good to my sister but I was just mad that they didn't tell me" Rose sighed.
“Same thing happened to me, before Liam was diagnosed with cancer, he experienced the symptoms but he never told me, he said he didn't know the symptoms of cancer but still, I'm his sister and he left me in the dark. I know I can be unapproachable most of the time but it was painful finding out that way" She voiced out. Aiden patted her head.
“I won't hide anything from you, I promise" He murmured and she believed him.

“This vacation went by like a breeze, we'll be returning home tomorrow" Claire said happily. Dylan looked at her in amusement.
“Aren't you supposed to be sad that we are going back?" He questioned.
“Why would I be? This vacation was wack. I feel like the principal just wanted to get rid of us for a while" She told him.
“Well it wasn't wack for some people '' Andrea motioned towards Rose and Aiden who have been spending a lot of time together. The only time they were away from each other was when they both had different activities" Claire sighed dreamingly.
“Ha! Love looks so good on them" Claire murmured. Dylan smiled at her.
“Love can look good on us too" Claire raised an eyebrow at him.
“Oh come on, we are the only odd ones out. We are like two third wheels" Dylan told her. She rolled her eyes.
“I'll pass," She said and walked away. Dylan sighed as he turned to Steven.
“How do you guys get girls?" Steven shrugged.
“Guys, I need your help with something" Aiden said as he walked over to them.
“Where's Rose?" Andrea asked.
“She went to the toilet. We don't have much time, I need you guys to help me plan a birthday party" Aiden said. Andrea's eyes widened.
“Oh my God, is Rose's birthday coming up?"
“It's today"
“Today?!!" They all yelled in disbelief.
“Shhh... I want to surprise her because she doesn't know I know" Aiden informed them.
“If she didn't tell you then how'd you find out?" Steven questioned.
“Liam told me. He said she has never celebrated her birthday"
“Oh my God, we have so much work to do, just tell us what you need" Andrea said giddily.
“Don't worry about decorations, just get me a cake and it should be vanilla, thanks" He said before jogging back to Rose.
“Oh my God, I need to tell Claire" Andrea ran up to Claire.
“Why do I have to be blindfolded? And it's night time" Rose whined as Aiden handed her a cloth to cover her eyes.
“Because I want to surprise you" He told her. She sighed.
“I Don't like surprises, just tell me what it is," She urged him. He thrusted the cloth towards her.
“Put it on," He commanded. She threw a glare at him.
“Please," He added. She sighed before taking it and putting it on. Aiden picked her up and carried her bridal style. She gasped.
“What do you think you're doing?" She questioned.
“I want to carry you today" He said nonchalantly.
“You should at least give me a heads-up," She muttered.
“Heads-up" He joked.
“Oh ha haha, so funny" She rolled her eyes but he couldn't see it.
“Oh how I love your sarcasm" He told her with a smile.
“Whatever, get me to the surprise already" After walking for like ten minutes, he finally let her down.
“Are we there?" She asked.
“Yes" He said as he began to untie the cloth. As soon as the cloth dropped from her eyes, she gasped.
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROSE!"
