Cheating with my boyfriend's best friend novel (Olivia and Aaron) novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168

By the time I’d finished making love to Aaron, it was almost afternoon.

I was limp and exhausted, clinging to Aaron’s broad chest like a koala and listening to his strong heartbeat as he carried me out of the bathroom.

As soon as we’d entered the bedroom again, I saw the smashed mirror on the dresser. Aaron had already cleaned up the shattered pieces of glass on the floor, but there was still a piece of the broken mirror that hadn’t fallen down.

The sight of it reminded me of Aaron’s strange behavior from earlier, and the image of him knocking over the contents of the vanity played in my mind in slow motion. I pursed my lips and frowned slightly, looking at the distorted reflection of my own worried face in the broken mirror.

The next second, a pair of large hands covered my eyes. Aaron’s deep voice rang out in my ears, “Don’t look at that.”

Everything was dark, and all I could feel was his warm hands across my face.

Maybe my other senses were heightened in the darkness, because I thought I could detect a hint of nervousness and tension in Aaron. My heart suddenly melted into a puddle of goo.

I reached out and covered the backs of Aaron’s hands with my own, teasing, “Okay, I won’t look, but we’ll probably have to go out and buy a new mirror later.”

Aaron put me on the vanity chair, grabbed the back of the chair vigorously, and spun me around so my back was facing the mirror. Our eyes met, and I stared at him.

After a long moment, Aaron coughed lightly. He took a hair dryer,

came over, and began to dry my hair. “Okay, we can go shopping together this afternoon.”

After my hair was dry, I got dressed and went to the city’s largest furniture store with Aaron.

This furniture store was full of luxury brands, so I was sure we’d be able to find a nice enough mirror here.

Aaron took me by the hand and inspected each mirror one by one, comparing them to the design of the dresser in the villa.

As I walked around the brightly lit furniture store with Aaron, I kept inadvertently glancing down at Aaron’s hand holding mine, and I felt like we were picking out the furniture for our new home. I frowned at the thought of settling down with Aaron.

“What’s wrong?” Aaron turned to me in surprise as I paused in the middle of the aisle, distracted.

I didn’t want to tell Aaron what I was thinking, so I changed the subject. “Um, I was looking at that dresser right there… I think it matches the decor of Eliott’s house really well, right?”
