Sorry. I started this chapter this morning, but couldn't finish it until now. My kids wanted to go swimming, so couldn't really write there.
Ariel’s pov I got up from my chair, feeling the tears come. “No Troy, you can’t just give up your life for me.” Troy tried to grab my arm. He looked so good today. His black shirt was hugging all his muscles and he had a lot of them. His hair was really cute and his dimples, o my god. His dimples
