Chapter 40 You Look Beautiful

• Lexa’s [POV]
• Aiden and I were dressed and out the door in less than fifteen minutes, and that’s after I encouraged him to take a shower and go downstairs so he’d behave. I let Mattie know what was going on and thanked her for calling me. She had tried to deny it at first, but as I walked away, she mumbled a quiet you’re welcome.
• Aiden insisted we take the Shelby and ran a few stop signs on the way out of his neighborhood. Not that you could call it a neighborhood; it wasn’t like he had anyone living close, but there were a few houses on the same street.
