OMG. I feel awful because I'm so behind on everyone's snippets. I'm so proud of everyone's offerings.

I've been dealing with so much personal drama so I've had to be offline most the time.

Thank you so much for the tags: @ggee-xx @stuckinanothertimezone @nerdyfangirl76 @jackiemerrick & @aaronsugdens💛

“So, your ex..” Robert began. Aaron could practically see the back of his head. Robert’s jealously reeking like a song he heard a thousand times, it was practically an earworm. Unlike Robert with his dastardly attempts at looking like he was auditioning for the apprentice , Aaron could place hands in his pockets and stomp along, kicking stones to give off the impression of a foul mood. “What about him?” “I’m just sayin,’ couldn’t be dealing with that accent for a long period of time. Talk about grating.” Robert mocked with a gentle chuckle. “Yeah, that’s why I broke it off. Couldn’t be coping with the need for subtitles when we were in bed.” Aaron immediately realised he massively overstepped the grounds in which, you were supposed to keep things professional with a boss. Robert wouldn’t have needed the mental imagery. He scrapped his thumbnail back and forth against his eyebrow and sighed, “sorry uh, too much,” Aaron mumbled. Aaron could see the little markings either side of Robert’s lips embedding themselves across the portrait of Robert’s face as he smiled widely, admiring the quip from Aaron, so much so it was making the colour of his eyes pop a beautiful morning winter sky.

“Robert Sugden?” the mystery man asks.

Aaron glances at Robert, then back at the driver.

“Who wants to know?”

“Get in the car,” is the only response, which sets off alarm bells for both of them.

“I’ll pass, thanks,” Robert says with a forced laugh, starting to walk away.

Aaron pauses, shooting the driver a dirty look before falling back in step with Robert.

The car creeps forward, following them.

“Robert,” the driver calls, but Aaron cuts in.

“You heard him. Now jog on.”

Just then, they hear a car door open, someone getting out of the passenger side. Aaron instinctively moves in front of Robert, protective, ready to fight if he has to. A man steps around the front of the car, heading straight for Robert.

“You heard him,” the newcomer says.

Aaron sizes him up and replies,

“Yeah, and you heard me. You mess with him, you mess with me. So for the last time do one.”

“Look,” Robert starts, “I don’t want any trouble.”

“Neither do I,” another voice calls, making Robert turn toward the back door of the car. Fear flashes in his eyes as he whispers,

And here’s the link to last year’s if like me you’re still working your way through them

Summary:

liv saves the day (night?) + robert opens up a bit to aaron

“You alright?”

He hadn’t even noticed Aaron at his side, hand on his wrist.

Aaron’s skin burns against his. He almost pulls away. Doesn’t.
