039AURORAI step up and wrap him in another hug, squeezing tighter this time. Brian buries his face into my shoulder. I just hold him, rubbing small circles into his back the same way I used to when things got too heavy for him during highschool. "I'm so sorry, Brian," I murmur. "I'm so, so sorry." I can feel Jayden standing a few feet behind us, quiet and watchful. A part of me is hyper-aware of his presence, aware of how weird this whole situation must look to anyone else. But right now, human decency trumps any awkward college romance drama. Brian lost his mom. The world can pause for a minute.When Brian finally pulls back, he swipes his palm across his wet cheeks, looking exhausted."I'll go grab us some food," Jayden says softly. I turn to look at him. "There's a diner a few blocks back. I'll get something.""Jayden, you don't have to..." Brian starts."It's fine, man. Just take a second, sit down, and get some water," Jayden interrupts. "I'll be back in fifteen.""Thank you,

041BYE BESTIEAURORA I can't lie in bed pretending to sleep for long. Claudia's leaving today. From tomorrow, I'll be roommates with Jayden again. It's a lot to take in for real. Claudia is still fast asleep, bundled up like a burrito, taking full advantage of her last morning in the room before her flight tonight. Quietly, I pull on my running tights, lace up my sneakers, and slip out of the room and out of the dorm.I start jogging down the pavement. I haven't done this before actually. So I'm just taking my time letting the morning air sway my ponytail as I stretch my body.It takes thirty minutes for me to really feel the impact of my jog this morning. I take a slow pause, resting my palms on my knees as I breathe in and out. When I get back to the dorm, Claudia is awake. She's packed up her stuff and her suitcases sit neatly by the door. I look at her, my eyes widening. "What the hell?""I'm leaving today." She says like I don't fucking know. "That's why you've packed up this

043NO TIMEJAYDEN"Can't believe I'm leaving her. I just want to hug that bitch and stay with her forever." Claudia glances back, her arms still wrapped around herself.I do admire their friendship. I've seen girls claim to be this close. But this...? What Claudia and Aurora have? It's what a lot of girls think they have. But they actually don't. And that's the bitter truth. These two girls are like sisters."You guys have been friends for..." I input the question there, watching her reaction from the corner of my eyes.She finally decides to stop looking backwards at the streets we're passing. "Since forever. I can't put a date on it. I just know that it's been a long time.""And your parents know each other?" I ask again.She nods. "Pretty much. Why are you asking me all these questions?""Because she told me something about a brother?" Shit. I don't know how the fuck that slipped. But it's out now. Claudia gives me a blank stare, then it turns to something wary."She told you abou

045FUCK YESAURORA "Damn girl. That was brutal." Brian snickers as I drop my phone, not taking my eyes of it though. I do not feel good about the way I spoke to Jayden. I feel like an asshole. But then if what Brian told me is the truth, then I'm for sure moving the fuck out of the dorm and I don't care what the school or anybody says. "I'm just trying to think that you're wrong." I tell him. He raises his hand. "I'm everything you call me. But do you think I'd lie to you just to save my ass?"I shake my head. "I don't know. You're a liar for all I know.""I'm not saying Jayden knows. But the guys are in on it. They talk shit about you all the time and he has to know. He's the captain.""What exactly do they say?"Brian hesitates. He unfolds his legs from where he's sitting on the couch. "I do not want to be the reason why you fight with him. For all I know, he's been nothing but good to you.""What do they say about me, Brian?" I repeat, my voice cracking."I heard Harry telling

047MOREAURORA I thought I heard wrongly. I didn't hear the door open or anything so I couldn't hide the photo or the book. Sofia had already stepped back into the room. Her eyes sweep from my face down to the picture in my fingers, and then to the book wide open on her bed. Her face turns white before flushing red. Fuck. She looks mad. I'd be mad at me too. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?!" Sofia shrieks, her voice cracking as she slams the door behind her. "Are you out of your goddamn mind?!"I can't move. I can't even believe that she's caught me. My eyes are just wide in disbelief. I can't even process the anger radiating off her because my brain is still stuck on the fact that she has documented this man's life like a high-stakes stalker."Sofia, wait...""Get your fucking hands off my stuff!" She walks across the room, her eyes wildly darting between me and the book. I've not seen her this mad before. She does look like she's about to throw a punch. "Who the hell g
