Chapter 38 - The Wedding
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56It was understandable that Casey could not meet her eyes. She was not sure if it was because of guilt or just him trying not to get distracted by her. Ava didn’t think too much about it and went about the wedding as if she didn’t sleep with the groom.
It was time for the wedding and people were filing into the hotel. Since there was an area just for weddings, it was designed perfectly to the image of whatever couple was getting married that day. There was white silk running through the middle of the room, being the aisle for Klaire to walk down. And on either side, there were round tables and chairs accompanying them. Each table decorated with flowers and having wine bottles and glasses.
Ava knew that she would need to sip some wine in order to get through the wedding. She was just waiting for it all to be over. Now that she had done the unspeakable with Casey, she was looking to get on the next plane and run back to Los Angeles and forg

As soon as the wedding was over Ava was on the next plane back to Los Angeles. The immense relief she felt when the plane took off made her entire body slouch. She had been on edge since the wedding and her body had become so stiff because of it. For the rest of the time there, she did not speak to Casey, and after the wedding Klaire, and actually sent someone to find her so that she could make a toast at the dinner. Ava had never been more consumed with guilt than at that moment in her life. Klaire had thanked her for saving her relationship and wished that Ava could continue to help them in the future, and yet Ava slept with her husband. During Ava’s speech, she said that she was happy that she was able to witness such a lovely relationship flourish into a marriage and that she wished they would last forever and have wonderful children. Everyone knew that she was bullshitting but the speech was nice and so no one thought much about it. And it wasn’t lik

Casey had not stopped thinking about Ava. Even though he was on his romantic honeymoon in Greece. The skies and the beach were blue and he had Klaire with him, his wife. The wife he reluctantly married and wanted nothing more than to get rid of. The wife he was using to hold up his foolish image just to avoid embarrassment. Even though these were the thoughts going through his head, he still acted as if he was the happiest person in the world. But besides that, there were things he should be happy about. Aside from Klaire, he was in Greece and had the liberty to roam around freely without being stared at too much, and of course, the paparazzi were nowhere to be found. So he took it as a vacation and tried to enjoy it as much as he could. “Come on,” Klaire pulled his arm. “Let’s go there.” At the side of the road, they were walking down, there was a little jewelry stand that had probably been handcrafted. There were some

Casey could not get it up. Understandable. It was Klaire after all. He was honestly relieved, to be honest. But when it came to Klaire, it seemed to be the end of the world and he could see that she was probably on the verge of tears. The thing that was most pleasing about the situation was that Klaire seemed to think that it was her fault and not his. It was great that she didn’t try to push it on him because it definitely was her and would admit that, but he didn’t want to deal with becoming a widower only a couple of days after his marriage. Although that title didn't sound too bad. Klaire sat on the edge of the bed, with her back facing him as if she was feeling shameful and it was honestly sad. A lot of people assume that men leave the women they are seeing because they are not able to pleasure them sexually, and while that may be true in some cases, it is mostly because of the simple loss in interest that carried over into a loss of interest with that person.

Casey watched as Ava’s face morphed through many different emotions. At first, she was taken back, and disgusted, then angry, emotionless, and then angry again. “Casey Miller… you did not just utter those words to me.” her voice came out as soft a whisper as if she was having a hard time grasping what he had just told her. “I- I just- you make mefeelAva. You make me feel things that I didn’t know I could feel. Not after probably going emotionally and sexually numb because of Klaire.” Ava let out a huff and looked around as if scared that someone would hear them. She stepped out of the door frame and grabbed his arm, pulling him into the apartment. Once the door was closed, her back was to him. “Take off your shoes.” Once he had done so, he followed behind Ava closely, as if scared of getting lost in her nice apartment. It was clean, pristine, and sleek. He kind of

When Casey grabbed her hand, Ava’s heart skipped a beat. She cursed silently, wishing that her body would not react like that. If only she could give into his words and take him seriously. If only she could ignore all the red flags and go for it. But it was just too much. She was betraying everything she knew. She would be an adulterer if she proceeded to do anything else with Casey. Which is why she wanted their night together to remain in the past. To remain a memory. A memory she wished she could get rid of.“Mr. Miller, what we did is wrong. Whether or not I felt something. Whether or not you feel something. It is wrong. If I could change the past then I would. We cannot continue down the path, it will harm many people. You and I included.” Ava pulled her hand away.“But… if I break up with Klaire. If I leave her-”“If you leave Klaire then good for you. You are doing what the

August 24th - The Night Before The WeddingCasey rolled to face Ava, she had no idea how many times they had done it, but she wanted to go again for however long she wanted. The feeling of Casey repeatedly pounding into her was brain-meltingly good and she honestly didn’t think she would be able to move on with life without it.He smiled at her, his hair sticking to his forehead and his chest heaving up and down. They had just finished around and it was probably their third one. Ava’s phone was somewhere around, but she was too lazy to check it to get the time.“Are you ok?” Casey asked, pushing himself up on his forearms.Ava took a breath and licked her lips. “Yes,” she sounded breathless because she was.He chuckled and leaned closer to her, his hair flopped on her forehead and Ava laughed, she found the action. Leaning into

Casey was kicked out as soon as Ava finished hugging him. There were a million things running through his mind as he tried to figure out what it all meant. Did she want to move on, was that hug a goodbye hug? Was it her telling him to wait? Was it a yes to him wanting to be with her? Was she reciprocating his feelings?None of those questions were answered and he was simply kicked out of her apartment. There weren’t any looks that she gave him that suggested anything positive, or negative, it was just neutral. Ava was neutral and he didn’t know what that meant.He walked down to his car with a feeling in his chest that was a mix of disappointment and agitation. Casey didn’t know why he expected to get a positive answer from her. He was asking her to betray all she knew just so that he could feel good. But she felt good too, he knew, she said so. It wasn’t just about the sex, it was about the feelings. The way she lo

Ava had not said a word since they got inside. They both sat on the couch, in the same places they were earlier. And Ava just looked at Casey, with this look on her face that he could not place. It was like she was studying him, but at the same time she looked zoned out. Casey was tempted to speak up and say something, but he didn’t want to ruin whatever thoughts she may have going on in her mind.Admittedly, what he did this morning was selfish and was putting some pressure on Ava. It would have been easy for her to just shut him out and never talk to him again, but she actually decided to have him in her apartment. Which didn’t exactly mean that he was going to hear something good, but it meant that she was at least thinking about it and had something to say regarding the matter.“What happened that night… have you told anyone about it?”Without hesitation. “No! Never- I would never t

This is common for people who have had relatively lonely lives. They want love in any form they can get it and so when it comes knocking they immediately answer. Casey wanted Klaire because she loved him. Because she wanted him and he liked that she wanted him. But over time it became too much and he couldn't handle it and had thoughts of breaking it off. But not wanting to be alone, he tried to fix her. He didn't want to leave her.Casey is confused by what she says. He is denying everything but Ava can see it. She is confused as to why he did try to break up with her before when Klaire slapped her. He said that at that point he really was only thinking of getting away from her. He said that Klaire was suffocating and in that moment he was so angry that he didn't think ahead. But when she threatened to kill herself, he stayed with her.He tells her that he began to see all of her flaws as time passed and by the time of the wedding he was way past sick of her, but he did not want to b

After that day, Casey takes to trying to court Ava. She wonders why this appeared all of a sudden and wonders why he has this. She does not believe his feelings and continues to ignore his advances. Every time he appears at her door with floors or when he suddenly pops up when she is trying to live her life casually. She is afraid that the press will get wind of what he is doing and no matter how many times she tells Casey he does not listen to her.By his behavior, she assumes that he is trying to trap her. Get her in a difficult position and then expose her as someone who's trying to get with the person Klaire killed herself over. That is the only logical thing she can think of.Ava thinks that he is probably clinging to her because there is some essence of Klaire remaining on her since she was involved in their entire scandal. That's another theory she has. But whatever it is, she does not believe he has feelings for her.She follows news on him just so that he knows what he's up t

Three years go by and Ava has received a lot of help and has mostly gotten past everything that has happened. She has permanently stopped being a therapist because she still feels unworthy but now that she has been helped she's hoping she can find something to do with her life.The incident with Klaire and Casey has been long settled and people rarely bring it up. She still gets some stares in public but after a year the heavy hate she was getting decreased. Since Casey went missing three years ago no one has really been on their case anymore. A lot of people speculate he killed himself or he went into hiding as there would be the occasional person claiming they saw him with some blurred or potentially photoshopped picture to back them up. Ava is over it and since then she has learned to appreciate herself more and spend more time with herself.Ava goes out to the mall and shops for some essentials and on one of the TVs in the store she is in shows a news channel and there is a crowd

Horrified, Ava throws up on the spot. An overwhelming feeling of guilt builds inside of her. It's definitely her fault. She looks for more news about it and there is also news of a note she posted on her Instagram just a couple of hours after she was found dead. The letter is addressed to Casey and she basically states that even though she loved him he never fully loved her and that she dedicated so much of her time to him only for it all to fall apart. She says that she used the threat of killing herself in the past to keep him with her but it seemed he didn't care about her life because she was already dead because of him. She does not say Ava's name but addresses the 'homewrecking bitch' that came between them.Due to the shock of it all, Ava passes out. When she wakes up, she is in a hospital. Her friends came to check on her and found her passed out. They apologize for leaving her and explain that they needed time to process everything when the news broke out. They say that Klair

Ava would call what she and Casey did, a peaceful resolution. It was the end of their story and she hoped that this entire thing would just be done and over with. She was not expecting to meet with Casey again after that and hoped that their paths would not cross for the benefit of everyone. She just wished that he would not have to go through hell in order to divorce Klaire.She didn’t have work at the moment and she had returned to her apartment that day after meeting with Casey. Ava looked to focus on herself and grow as a person. There was no way that she would be able to gain redemption in the eyes of the public and that was not what she was looking for in the first place. If Ava could, she would rather have just disappeared and not come back for another couple of years. That night, she spent it contemplating everything she was doing with herself when she heard her doorbell ring. It was a mystery who it could have been but Ava had a couple of guesses. Maybe her friends were will

Once Casey and Ava were done with what they had to say, the million and one questions from the reporters came crashing down on them. It was hard for them to distinguish anything more than a couple of words. Casey tried his best to answer them. Ava did not feel qualified to answer anyone, so she moved more to the side and watched what Casey did. Once the crowd was able to be silenced, then they were able to actually hear what people had to say. They got questions along the lines of wondering if Casey dumped Klaire for Ava or what Ava was thinking when she held such a powerful position in their lives. After the press conference, there was a feeling of dread in Ava’s stomach that told her that what they did today did really nothing to help their cases. Ava was not sure why people would be sympathetic and understand where she was coming from. She did not expect them to. The ordeal was already trending online when she got home and once again she spent an unhealthy amount of time scrolli

Casey finally came up with an idea a couple of days later. Ava was not sure if it would make things better or worse but since it was the only thing they had and that it was better than just sitting around, she agreed.It was actually close to what Ava had thought of. Casey decided to call a press conference in the name of his father’s company to publicly apologize for the scandal. Ava was also to attend so that she could also apologize. It would not be announced that Ava was going to attend because she was definitely going to get killed before the event even took place.Based on what he had been telling her, Klaire had been back and forth between ignoring Casey, wanting to kill him, and begging for him to love her. She was a complete mess and Ava was sure that if she went to the press conference and saw her, s

“We really need to talk,” Casey said to her as he entered.“You think.”He walked for a bit and then stopped and looked back at her. “Klaire told me what she did to you. I'm so sorry. This really is all my fault. I should have listened to you when you said that being with Klaire was a mistake. I should have known that it would have blown up. And then to make things worse, I convinced you into a relationship with me.”Ava held up her hand. “I am just as responsible. Even more so since I’m the therapist here. I should have known better. Gosh, I should have known better. I’m sorry. I should have denied this. Doing this was never a good idea.”&ldqu

Two weeks passed. Two weeks of Ava lasting off of Zeeva’s cooking and groceries. Two weeks of pain and tears. Two weeks of not leaving her house and hating every moment of life. Two weeks before she had any contact from Casey.Casey: We need to speak. I’ll come by your apartment.Ava did not know what to expect and she did not know if him going to her was the best option but she knew that they needed to talk about what happened. They needed to do that at least once. She was not sure how he would be able to get him here, seeing as the paparazzi and Klaire’s army have not left her alone, but she was sure he would find a way.Besides the pictures of them fighting, there was nothing else from the two of them. After seeing the pictures, Ava wondered if Casey genuinely felt sorry for what he did. She knew that he still wanted Klaire to get help but she was not sure about his feel
