It was already very late at night when they all retired to bed. Hayley's mind was in overdrive, she didn't able to sleep that night, she was just tossing and turning in her bed when she heard a soft knock on her room's door. 'Everyone is asleep, who will come knocking at my door at this point of time' with this thought she choose to ignore the sound but she heard it again and this time she choose to open the door. There he was standing tall and smiling at her Aaron. She involuntarily smiled back at him and then he slides inside her room which made her panic not because he was in her room late at night but because they were in Scott Mansion anyone could come . Aaron could see these things on her face so he said to her 'everyone is sleeping and I already messaged Ginny so she will keep Keith in their room apart from him n.o.body going to come here at this point of time." When Hayley heard him she nodded and went towards bed and then Aaron also laid beside her on the bed and Hayley snuggled closer to him as if it was most obvious thing to do. Aaron wrapped his one hand around her shoulder and pulled her more closer to his body. They lay like that for sometime when Hayley suddenly asked Aaron "Is Caleb has any nickname?" this question of her confused him but he still answer "none that I know of". " Then why those goons addressed him as Prince?" she fired another question.

Aaron knew it was time to tell her more about himself but he couldn't tell her about why those goons addressed Caleb as prince because it was his story to tell but he could tell her things that related to him. So he said "I can't tell you why those goons called him prince." Hayley understood what that means, it means that she had to ask Caleb and he will be the only one who could give her an answer.

"Hayley" Aaron called out her name when he saw her zoning out she hummed in reply. It was signal for Aaron to continue. " Love, in near future maybe you have to face some hardships because of being a.s.sociated with me or because of us but always remember I love you and I care for you and you are precious to me more than anything in the world." WHAThen she heard this she felt like choking, after a while when she was sure that her voice was not going to shake she said "I will keep that in mind and I am not afraid of hardships unless or until you and all of them are by my side."

Aaron smiled and said "you like listening to stories right?" Hayley nodded her head in response and smile on Aaron's just became wider after that response and he continued "don't worry you are going to hear lot of stories in coming days." he said this because he knew that coming days going to be days of lots of revelations, some of it might scare her but she needs to know about them because she was part of his life now or he might say she was his life now.

Morning rays were now seeping through window and falling on Hayley's face she knew that Aaron was not going to be by her side but she still checked his side of bed. She opened her eyes and looked around the room and then went to washroom to freshen up after that she ate breakfast with Aunt Sarah and called Caleb. Caleb knew that he had to face Hayley someday so he thought that today was going to be that day and he also needed to talk to her so he said he will pick her from mansion in an hour.
