Harri pulled up to the house in her Audi, and threw a smirk at Aiden as she pulled her coat on. She hadn't returned his call because she was determined to make it to Princeton. She had shifted Heaven and Earth to get here, bailing on about five meetings and promising to make it up with interest. She'd also let Marc know that she was going to be out of the City for some quality BFF time, and thankfully he hadn't minded. Probably worried he was going to be asked to come along.
She didn't want him here, she just wanted to be with Aiden. She'd missed him so much it had hurt, and when she started to walk up his drive, her smirk morphed into a grin. "Hey you."
Aiden's face broke into a grin and he climbed down off the front of his car, leaving his coffee sitting there, forgotten. He went over to her and threw his arms around her. "I miss you so much," he told her, clinging to her probably more than he would in general when they used to see each other about daily. "I'm glad you could come."
Harri hugged him back, squeezing him tight. "I missed you too, love. And I'm sorry, I really am." Harri still felt awful for the night she turned up on Aiden's doorstep in tears, trying to keep Marc's secret. "As if I wouldn't. I don't want to be anywhere else."
Aiden shook his head. "No, I'm sorry. I've been such an arsehole these last few weeks I could hardly think straight. I thought I would be okay, but I just... wasn't. I shouldn't have been such a bastard with your... whoever is name is. See, I was even confused when I realised he had two." He shook his head. "I'm sorry."
