Violet to the side -->
Aiden's P.O.V
I arose from a deep sleep, interrupted by my alarm. After wiping the sleep from my eyes, I looked at my alarm clock to find out the time. It read 7:30am. So I had more than enough time to get dressed and ready for school.
Scenes from yesterday kept appearing in my head. I knew what I said to her was harsh, but she couldn't deny it was all the truth. I really needed to talk to her, but I would need an on hand dictionary to do that. She was so different than before. From the way she dressed, to the way she spoke. She was a completely different person now. I didn't recognize her anymore. The thing that surprised me the most was that she cried.i never expected that from her. It was.. weird.
I pushed my thoughts aside as I got in the shower and cleaned myself. The shower was quick, because I put the temperature too high and nearly suffocated in the heat. As I got out, my phone started ringing. So I ran towards it.
"Hey." I answered before the person hung up.
"Yo, this is Aiden right?" A boy said.
"Maybe, who's this?" I replied.
"It's Luca." He responded.
"Oh,what's up? Why're you calling me at 7am?"
"It's eight." He said bluntly.
"Actually it's 7:43. So you're wrong." I corrected him.
"Whatever. I need to ask you a favor."
"That is?" I questioned.
"Could you drop me to school, please?"
"Time?"
"8:15"
"See you then." I told him as I hung up. Then scurried to get dressed. I pulled on a plain white over my wet hair. Then remembered underwear, and pulled my boxers on quickly. After I found a pair of blue jeans and black socks.
I dried my hair with a towel and put my chain on.Then walked downstairs to see who was in. No one was in the living room, so I went into the kitchen. As I entered I noticed my mum and brother were at the table. My sisters must have already left.
"Hey sweetie." My mum greeted.
"Hi." I replied and kissed her forehead. Then proceeded to get some cereal.
"Aiden sweetie.. I'm sorry to ask you this so soon, but I-"
"Don't worry, I've got rent covered." I smiled. "I'll go get it after I've ate."
"Thank you." She mouthed.
She didn't need to know that I was taking it out of my own personal fund. She doesn't even know how I get the money. The only thing she knew was that I get it. Not how I get it or how much. Just that I always found a way. The only people that knew what I do in my house was my brother, Wyatt, and my older sister Paige. I didn't tell them, they caught me. It would never be my choice for my family to find out.
"Why're you ready this early?" Wyatt asked.
"Because I am." I replied bluntly.
"But why?"
"Cause i'm dropping Luca to school..." I trailed off. Then shoved a spoonful of cereal into my mouth.
"Oh. So you can take me too right?" He grinned.
"Fine." I groaned. " You better be ready. Because we have to leave in- shit, now."
I gave a quick kiss goodbye to my mum and told her I would give her the rent later. Then me and Wyatt rushed out the door. We got in the car and rove straight to Luca's house. He was already outside waiting, with his backpack slung over one shoulder.
"Hey, thanks for giving me a ride. My mum is still at work, so i've been trying to find one all morning." He explained as he climbed into the back seat.
"Don't sweat it." I told him. " What time did she start?"
"Nine, last night." He replied as I drove to our destination.
"Shit, they got her working around the clock." Wyatt piped up.
"Fuck yeah." Luca exclaimed. "Oh and thanks for the over night Aiden, it helped alot."
Wyatt gave a confused look, then began to question. "What happened the other night?"
"Aid-"
"Mind your business." I cut Luca off. I didn't want him to know anything about the shit I do. It was bad enough he knew about the drugs side of things. If he found out about the other, I would've failed in protecting him. I needed to protect him from it.
"On a different subject. Why do you need to go school so early? Our school don't start until half 8." I said, hoping it would stop Wyatt from pushing on the subject.
"The new principle wants to speak with me. He told me to be there at exactly 8:30." He answered.
I pulled up at the parking lot, then switched the engine off. I turned my head and faced Luca, who sat there confused.
"Are you fucking kidding me!" I raised my voice.
"What? What did I do?" He panicked.
"It's only a five minute drive. I could've ate my breakfast if I knew we didn't have to leave early." I groaned and my stomach rumbled. "Get out."
"What? Why?" Luca asked.
"Both of you." I told them. "I'm going to get McDonald's, and you guys can't be late. So out."
They wined and groaned that they wanted to come too. But then finally realized I wasn't taking them and got out the car. Then I instantly drove off.

Violet's P.O.V
I arrived at my new school on time and noticed Aiden's little brother standing in the car park. I hadn't seen Wyatt since the day I got shipped of for boarding school. He still looked the same as when he was a child, just a more grown up version. His hair was slightly lighter than Aidens, as it's always been. As I got closes to him, I noticed he had the same blue eye's. Which he had inherited from his father. Unlike Aiden, who was his mother all over. The only thing Aiden had gotten from his father was his height, which Wyatt had also got.
"Hey." I said as I stood in front of the two boys.
"Hi...Who're yo-" He cut himself off. "Violet?"
"Yes?" I replied with a smile.
Without another word, he took me into his embrace and squeezed me. The young boy who stood next to him also hugged me. Which I recognized to be Luca. It was hard to tell who he was at first, considering how much his features had changed. They both looked so grown up from the little kids I remembered. It was difficult to register how much had changed in the time I had been gone.
"I can't believe you're back." He said with a disbelieving expression.
"Well I am." I chuckled as I looked up at him.
The both of the towered over me because of their height. It was unbelievable how much they had grown. They both must have been bordering on 6ft now, whereas I was only 5'5. Therefore I was like a midget to them.
