Chapter Twenty-Six
Lucky glared at me. I ignored him and took Aaron's hand in mine, and I turned to Stephan. "Will you be needing him for more photos?” I asked and he shook his head.
"But you need to pose for two more dresses so hurry up,” he said, and I nodded. I smiled at Aaron and pulled him in the dressing room.
"He's an asshole,” Aaron stated once we were alone. I chuckled and nodded.
"Yeah, he is,” I said. "Go change and wait with Grace and Chase,” I told him. He rolled his eyes.
"Yes mam,” he said and smirked. "Your lips are delicious,” he whispered looking at my lips, making my cheeks go red.
"You're an asshole too,” I stayed and shook my head when he chuckled and took his clothes, disappearing in the room next door. I took off the dress and put on a white one which reached mid-thigh. I think the black one was the principal dress as it was different from the other dresses. The white dress was beautiful too. Simple but beautiful. Stella had already put a white high heel shoes. I put it one and stated at myself in the mirror. The door opened and Stella walked in.
"You forgot the wings,” she said making me turn my attention to her.
"Wings?” I asked in confusion. She nodded excitedly. She pulled something from the table and gave it to me. Angel Wings.
"Put it on,” I did what she did and turned to look at me in the mirror. It matched. wow.
"It's beautiful,” I said and smiled.
"Yes,” She said and pulled the dress. She readjusted it and grinned. "You're beautiful.”
"Thank you,” I said and turned to look at her. "I'm good?” I asked twirling in front of her.
"Yes,” she said, and we walked out of the room. I made my way directly to Stephan.

Aaron's POV:
I smiled. Damn. I just posed for a magazine. Hopefully mine and Kim's photos will appear. I put on my shirt and walked back to where the photo shooting was taking place. I sat next to Chase who was grinning at me.
"You do realize that opportunity that you just got?” he asked, and I nodded.
"Yes,” I replied.
"Thank me,” he said and smirked. "If I didn't tell you to come, you wouldn't have been here right now,”
"Thank you, asshole,” I thanked, and he punched my shoulder. After a few minutes, Kim walked on the set. I literally dropped my jaw. She was dressed like an angel.
"Dude, shut your mouth, you may catch flies,” Grace snickered. Kim was hot. She was beautiful. I was left speechless. I wanted her to be mine. She was simply perfect. She posed and each and every time she would look at me. She was beautiful, generous, caring, loving and a little bit sarcastic. Damn, wasn't I falling hard for her? I watched as she bit her lips making me bite mine. She chuckled when she realized that my eyes were fixed on her lips.

Kim's POV:
I couldn't help but laugh when I saw Aaron biting his lips looking at mine with envy. After a few shoots, we were finally done. Stephan was really happy with the photos. I went to the dressing room and pit back on my short and my top. Thomas knocked and then walked in.
"I have to talk to your friend Aaron about his payment and I want you to be here,” he said in a professional tone.
"Why?” I asked.
"You'll advise him,” he said with a shrug and smiled. I nodded and followed him. Aaron stood near his office, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed over his chest. Once his eyes set on me, he stood straight and smiled. I walked to him and took his hands in mine, pulling me in Thomas's office.
"Where are we going?” he asked with a frown.
"Discussing about your payment,” Thomas said, and I watched as Aaron's eyes widened.
"I'm getting paid?” he asked in disbelief. Thomas chuckled at his behavior as we sat down.
"Obviously,” he replied. "But as it was your first shooting, you'll get less than her,” he said motioning towards me. "$1500,” he said. Aaron's jaw dropped open. "And I have a contract to propose you,” he said. "We'll have a photo shooting for surfing clothes,” he said. "And as you have the perfect face, we want you to pose,” he said. I smiled as I knew that it was a huge opportunity for him. Aaron was still speechless. "And as I know that you have a huge potential, I'll make a portfolio for you,” he said. I nudged Aaron to break him from his surprise.
"I accept,” Aaron simply said still a bit dazed. First time I've seen Aaron like this.
"You'll have to sign a contract which we'll send to Mrs. Perry first,” Thomas said looking at me. "And I already sent your payment to your mom,” he said, and I nodded. "That will be all, thank you,” he said and shook Aaron's hand. I kissed his cheek and walked out of his office. Aaron was trailing behind me and I turned to look him.
"So?” I asked and waited for him to join.
"Thank you,” he blurted out and I blinked several times.
"For what?” I asked with a frown.
"I just got an amazing opportunity because of you,” he said and wrapped his arms around me. I hugged him back and took a deep breath. He smelled amazing.
"You should probably thank your mom for your beautiful face,” I said sarcastically, and he chuckled.
"You're beautiful,” he said, and I pulled away. "I'm beautiful,” he continued with a smirk. "We'd make beautiful babies,” he said, and I chuckled.
"Let's go,” I said shaking my head at his cute stupidity. "Grace and Chase must be waiting for us,” I said and made my way out of the building.
"They left, you're coming with me,” he said proudly.
"Why aren't you not furious?” I suddenly asked. That question was going on and on in my mind.
"Because you helped me and I reacted as a jerk,” he said shaking his head. "I'm sorry,” he continued. "My mom told me everything,” he said and took my hand in his. "Kim,” he said looking at me right into the eyes. His baby blue eyes looked damn beautiful. "You're the best thing that ever happened to me,” he said.
"A bit too serious,” I simply said, and he chuckled.
"You really changed my life,” he said truthfully. "I want to thank your parents too,” he said, and I nodded. We walked to his car and made my way to Lucy's.
