Cheating with my boyfriend's best friend novel (Olivia and Aaron) novel Chapter 160

Chapter 160: Planning the Future
After half a day full of chaos, Cinder and Eliott went on a lunch break.
Once they left, I felt all the tension in my body disappear. My ears were filled with the relaxing sound of complete silence.
The winter sun shone down on the snow-capped pine trees and warmed up my entire body.
I settled into Aaron’s warm embrace. We sat on a wooden chair, looking out over the snowy expanse before us. I couldn’ t help but say, “I bet the view would be so much prettier in summer.”
“Then we’ll have to come back in the summer.” Aaron held my hand and looked into my eyes with a serious expression. “We can visit again in the future if that’s what you want.”
Whenever words like ‘future’ came from Aaron’s mouth, it filled me with a surreal feeling of longing and hope.
I also felt lost when thinking about it. It felt like the future was so far away, and I just wanted to be happy in the present.
I threw my arms around Aaron, burying my head in his chest and focusing on the sound of his strong heartbeat.
“Olive, let’s go on a vacation abroad once a year from now on. I want to see the lions of the African savannah, the expanse of the Amazon rainforest, and the aurora borealis of the Arctic with you.
There wasn’t a hint of doubt in his words. I could hear the sincerity in his voice. I pursed my lips and found the strength to say what I felt in my heart. “Are you already planning for
our future together?”
“Of course.” Aaron answered without hesitation. “I want to wake up every morning with you by my side. Eventually, we’ll have a couple of cute kids, and we can take them on hikes and picnics with Milk on the weekends.”
It was the first time Aaron had mentioned a future with me. But was he being serious? Did he really want to marry me?
I hadn’t thought that far ahead myself.
All I knew was that I wanted to maintain the relationship we had right then. I knew we loved each other, and that was enough for me.
I was lost in thought when Aaron wrapped his arms around my waist and turned me to face him. “Babe, what are you thinking about? Why aren’t you saying anything?”
I sat up and looked down at Aaron’s beautiful eyes. He looked so happy and I didn’t want to ruin the atmosphere, so I just went along with what he said and playfully refuted his words. “I was just thinking that I’m not going to give you a baby.”
“Who else would be the father, then?” He placed his hands on my waist and narrowed his eyes dangerously.
“You bully!” I whispered.
He cupped my chin and gave me a peck on the lips. “It’s not like you’re going to be having someone else’s kid anyways.”
He then rested his head on my shoulder and sighed softly. “Olive, I’m so certain that I want to spend my future with you. I’ve never been so excited about my future with a woman
before.”
I still couldn’t forget about Aaron’s pl*yboy past. What was so great about me? I didn’t have D-cup breasts or long legs, but Aaron still fell in love with me.
Those blue eyes were bubbling with deep emotion, and Aaron nuzzled in closer to my neck. He whispered to me, his voice soft. “Olive, I love you. I’m so thankful that you came into my life.”
My heart tightened as I hugged him even tighter. “I love you too.”
Maybe I needed Aaron more than I thought I did, but I still wasn’t sure about our future together.
Aaron’s ideas were wonderful and everything I always dreamed of when I imagined a family of my own, but I felt like the future was still far away. I just wanted to enjoy my current love for Aaron without worrying about the uncertain future.
After cuddling for a while, I looked around at the calm, snowy mountains surrounding us. “Want to go for a stroll?”
“Sure.” He held my hand tightly in his as we wandered along the scenic trails.
The landscape around here was famous for its beauty, and the snow covering every inch of it added a fickle charm.
We strolled alongside a frozen river, admiring the views.
The fluffy sn*wflakes piled on the riverbank reminded me of my childhood. “Do you wanna build a snowman?” I asked Aaron on a whim.
His eyes lit up at my proposal and he gave me a quick kiss. “I′ m going to build a beautiful snow-Olive.”
He really never failed to surprise me with his promises.
Aaron squatted on the ground and began rolling a snowball. After a while, he had two large snowballs stacked on top of each other. He found two dead branches to use as arms, and fished two chocolate almonds out of his pocket for the eyes. Finally, he found a Nike logo sticker and slapped it on to serve as the mouth.
He stepped back with his hands on his hips, taking a proud stance. “Babe, it’s you! Do you think it looks good?”
”
Haha, I really appreciated that he took the time out of his day to spend time with me like this.
I wasn’t about to lose to Aaron, so I began to make a snowman of my own. I hastily formed two snowballs and gathered some bits and bobs to decorate it. I squatted on the ground to write “I am Aaron!” in the snow in front of it with a stick.
When I was done, I turned around to see that Aaron had built several mini snowmen.
They were lined up like ducklings, and one was very weirdly shaped.
The corner of my lips twitched and I pointed to the gathering of snowmen. “Don’t tell me that those are supposed to be our kids and Milk?”
“Of course!” I’m not sure why Aaron was so proud of his work.
Aaron looked towards me to meet my questioning gaze. Aaron hesitated for a moment. “Isn’t it nice?”
I really am… speechless.
I shrugged helplessly and said, “As long as you’re happy.”
He pounced on me and laughed. “What, did I do a bad job making our kids?”
As he stared at me threateningly, I decided to be bold. “Not really, um…”
My train of thought was cut short when Aaron kissed me and argued, “I think they look fantastic.”
“Hey, do you guys want to go for a swim?” Cinder’s voice
called out nearby. She was standing less than a meter away from us, and she stopped in her tracks when she spotted the snowmen. “Are you guys so bored that you’re pretending to be dung beetles?”
I didn’t understand what she meant at first, but when I followed her gaze to see the neatly arranged line of snowmen, I burst out laughing.
That’s not a bunch of dung balls; those were my “adorable” children with Aaron!
