*Flashback*
Aubree's Pov
One step, forward, the other backward. My hands were on his, while his hands were on mine.
My eyes roamed all over his figure, devouring him with just my eyes. I could see him, I could hold his hands, but nothing more. All I could do was dance on the beat with him.
The beat was proceeding and so was our dance. But now our hearts were beating in different rhythms. The music that used to be one, was now differentiated by the difference in the sound of our heartbeats.
"It feels so good to dance with you." Jaden said and our dance proceeded. He said it felt good to dance with me, then why could he not see the reason why.
"Then let's dance, until we can." I said automatically, my voice coming out in a mere whisper.
"I can't dance with you, not any longer, coz now my heart belongs to her." He said and disappeared in an instant, leaving me sho

Aubree's Pov*Then*Their was no light. I was walking down the street and suddenly, all the street lights went off. I was scared.It was dark alone, that brought out the worst in me. Nothing else had the ability to scare me off like darkness did. It felt like I were not able to breathe. Like breath was being sucked out of my lungs, as if life was getting pumped out of my heart.I could not breathe, I could not feel my heart pumping blood within me. If this wasn't the worse, I heard wolves howling just nearby. I was so scared, that I thought I might pass out. It was way too much to bear.Just then, I felt my hand within someone else's hold. Someone was walking beside me, and even though I could not see him, I knew who he was. He had always been there, whenever I needed him, he came along. Even today.My eyes opened at that same moment and I realised that I were sleeping and thi

Aubree's Pov*Then*It was our three months anniversary. He planned out a dinner date for me. He took me out on a motorbike that night, towards the fanciest restaurant uptown. I wasn't expecting much so early, but he was keen to give me a lot, because, this is how much he loved me.He took me to the balcony, and a surprise awaited me. The whole place was full of red roses, and at the centre table, my name was written with the flame of candles. He told me how these three months of his life had been so wonderful, and how he awaited those next years to run by.Then, in an instant, he wrapped me within his arms, hugged me, and kissed my lips. Kissed them so hungrily, that he made me feel like I was lit by a million matches at the same time. I never expected this kiss to be so good, but he made me feel a million things with just a single shower of kisses.Next, he took me to the penthouse

Aubree's Pov*Then*I could feel the touch of his hands, as they began to roam my body, drawing tiny circles on them, as he kissed the fuck out of my neck. I did admit that it felt good, but I never imagined that this is how my experience with Jaden would feel.I held his hands once, which were soft and warm, but today, his hands were rough and cold, making me slightly cringe at the thought of kissing him back.He began to kiss me all along again, and this time, I could feel something, but it wasn't so good."Jaden.. " I moaned, while his lips sucked my earlobe.After sometime, he stopped. Just laid beside me and began to stare at the ceiling."I'm leaving." He said.It was then that I realised that it wasn't Jaden. It was Matt. This is why it felt so bad, but then why did I think about Jaden? I was totally over it, it had been a few years since

Aubree's Pov*Then*I may not be as beautiful as her. I may not be as thin as her. I may not have my well clicked photographs. I may not be as popular as her. But I know that I loved him more than she could even imagine. Because, at the end of the day, loving isn't something that's physical, it's something that comes from deep within. My love for him was true, and it wasn't just his physical appearance I craved for. I wanted his heart to be mine, I wanted to touch his soul, like no one ever could. But it was just an imagination now.I was way too nervous. It's like, I wasn't ready to meet him.Years had passed by, but still, the reminder of the look of his face was ready to send my heart to that time when I had fallen in love with him.How could I face him, after all these years that were going by? How could I even look at him and Isla together again, yet feel nothing at all? It was going to be

Aubree's Pov*Then*Matt was a druggist, he took advantage of me a million times. But it was all okay for me at that time, because he never hurt me. He actually loved me more than anything and he knew that I never could love him back. I screamed Jaden's name a million times while he was making me come. But he never said anything. He just walked away on me, because it was the best for the both of us. He knew it, and so did I.Sebastian was yet another case. He did drugs. He was extremely alcoholic. And he never stepped out of his room without being high. If Matt was a druggist and I was an alcoholic, then Seb was the king of us all.I just wanted a person by my side so desperately that I almost forgot that who I was dealing with. It was Seb, and you never mess around with guys like them. I knew this ever since he taught us how to dance. He never tolerated tardiness, or something wrong thatyou d

Aubree's Pov *Then* My eyes were open all the time. I looked at a body coming near me. Though my eyes were blurry at that time, I could still recognise him. It was Jaden. He had come here now, I would be safe now. Safe from Seb, but forever unsafe in life. Have you ever felt this way? That whether your eyes are opened or closed, it doesn't matter anymore. Like all your deepest desires are suddenly dead. Once in my life, I opened my eyes cheerfully, just to experience the good in the day to follow. I always had a hope that something good would suddenly come over, and my life will change to the normal one that I once lived. But nothing like that ever occurred. Though I still had that hope in my heart. I thought that if I owned nothing, had nothing, was nothing, I would have nothing left to lose, and I wouldn't be scared anymore. Because my whole life I’ve been so damn scared. Scared to live becaus

Aubree'sPov*Then*We began to have clashes, a lot of them. Not only because Jaden was lying, but also because he wasn't spending his time with me. He used to come home late at night, then claimed that he had work to do.But I knew best. He wasn't out for work, he was out there with Isla. She told me about this everyday. She called me each and every day and told me that Jaden still loved her and that he spent his whole time with her. It broke my heart to know this though. My heart drained with the knowledge of this information. Isla told me this, just because she was being a good friend and wanted me to know the reality. She told me that she wanted him to stop, but he never did.He was married to me, yet he wasn't into me not even now. What did this mean? He just married me so that he could be good in the eyes of his parents, and this world. He had married a broken girl, but was

Aubree's Pov*Now*The love that I gave him, was never reciprocated by him earlier. The love that he felt for me, never even reached me. And when we were finally on the verge of getting together, we were ripped apart all over again, that too by my own best friend.What did I do to deserve this? If I was betrayed because of the trust that I withheld in my best friend, then I would never be able to trust anyone else again.The girl who asked me what to wear, how to dress up, who copied all my homework, the girl who sang with me when we were all drunk and rolled down the streets, laughing and screaming profanities at all the passerbys. She actually shared each and every moment of her life with me. The woman who was now married to my best friend. How could I even face him and tell him about what she had done?You have no idea what people are capable of doing if pushed enough. It may not seem rational, but then, again, nothing
