Mated To My Stepbrother

Chapter 123

Aria pov

I guess being friends with you came with a lot of advantage and that is being happy all the time, if only Jaxson could kill the awkwardness between us and just want the both of us being happy.

"Thanks for making the library session really fun." I said to him as we walked out of the library and I noticed some eyes were on us and mostly the eyes of the jealous student and it was just so annoying but I didn’t care , they could only have two reasons to be staring at me...I am walking with Carlos or because I practically own the school they walk on.

After getting to my locker I was a bit hesitant to actually teach there because Mary was standing there and busy going through her locker with an awkward smile.

I walked hesitantly towards her and tapped her in the shoulder and that once wide smile on her face was immediately changed to frown when she noticed Carlos behind me.

"Carlos again, I though we passed that?" She said and that’s as supposed to be for me but she obviously said it out loud so Carlos could hear very clearly.

"He just wanted to say hi to me and I can’t reject that." I muttered to her buts he shrugged and as I tried to talk to her even more, Carlos stepped in and began.

"Wait, I don’t understand, so you hate me? I haven’t done anything wrong or bad for you you’re me yet." Carlos said and he was using a kind of voice I couldn’t just explain but I held in the way it made me move and instead watch how Mary softened up like she wasn’t the one who hated Carlos so badly. He walked towards her and held her hands in his.

"You should at least just tell me why i did and maybe we can settle this and stop having to act this way." He muttered to her and even the ways Mary breathed changed as she now had a wide smile on her face and I could help but chuckle at how easy it was to make her actually fancy him.

"I don’t, I don’t hate you I just don’t want Jaxson having to complain about you being too close to his sister." She stuttered and it was so funny because she was clearly losing her breath to Carlos and he was just acting himself.

"What do you mean Jaxson? Aren’t they just siblings and don’t Jaxson want her have a future of her own and this shouldn’t be his problem if I am not harmful." Carlos asked Mary and she was suddenly speechless.

"Jaxson actually thinks you are harmful and dangerous." I said to him and Mary stared at me with an angry glare making me laugh, she was still trying to escape his grip and I was add more fuel to the whole issue.

"Wow, but did Jaxson ever mentioned it to you that we were both very close friends even more people even began to think we were actual siblings." He said and I couldn’t help but be confused.

"If you two are so close why do hate each other now?" I asked him and he turned to me with a smile.

"Because of the one person who thought she was better than anyone in this school." He said and I couldn’t help but be able to pull out the part where he said she.

"She?You two fought because of a girl?" I asked and he nodded and looked around.

"People don’t like to talk about it because since you came into this school people are a bit frightened to even speak." He said but his voice sounded a bit low like he wanted only us to hear it.

"I am so Interested in knowing what other characters Jaxson have that he hasn’t said anything about it." Mary said and I could feel her loosing up to Carlos and I smiled because honestly that was actually a good thing for me.

"You know her Aria and it turns out you are half siblings now." He said and I couldn’t help but have a deep frown.

"Rachel, Rachel was the cause of you two splitting? Did Jaxson always love her that much?" Mary said all the words out of my mouth.

"Oh Rachel, that girl was just like the best thing to ever happen to him and he loved her with all his life back then." Carlos said and I couldn’t help but be more interested in what else he had to say but just then the bell rang and everyone started leaving the hall.

It turned out all the grades were needed to submit a project which you need to work on with someone and this was the time.

I turned to Carlos who also seemed eager to tell me the rest and Mary also seemed eager.

"Do not worry we would have this discussion after the project." I said to him as we all rushed into the classroom.

As I entered I couldn’t help but noticed the weird way Rachel and Jaxson stared at each other.

But I waved it off, until I hear the full story I wasn’t ready for Carlos words to get to me.

"Where have you been?you were meant to atleast pick a subject." He said to me but I rolled my eyes and just sat there.

"I don’t want to be project partners with you just yet." I said to him and he turned me to face him but all I prayed for was the teacher stepping in before he gets to even asks my reasons to want this.

"How can you say something like that? We had always wanted to be partners right from the very start why are you suddenly doubting yourself?" He asked and just then Carlos walked in. He had a smirk on his face as he looked at me, I guess our project was merged together.
