HEARTBEAT
"Now I know that. She means nothing to me anymore. I would go through everything again if it meant I would still end up here with you."
I was startled because I wasn't expecting what she just said. When I don't say anything in return, she exhales.
"I love you, Ace."
"I know." It is not the best reply to give to this woman that has made my life make sense.
"I hope you learn to accept my love one day. You are not alone Ace, I am here."
"I know."

I look up from my laptop, smiling at Aella, she waves back at me laughing. She has been baking with Amanda for the past two hours, I had to hold myself back from complaining when I saw the happy smile on her face.
