Aubree's Pov
"Just one more stroke and you're done." Laura said, as she finished her makeup trial on my face.
Today all the roles were getting reversed. Every time we went out, it was me who did the styling, but today it was Laura who was doing it. She had chosen the blue gown for me to wear because she knew that Jaden loved it. And then she began with her art on my face.
"Can I look at me now?" I asked her, fearing that I might not look good.
"Yes sure." She said after inspecting me for a while.
I faced the mirror and was shocked to look at me. She had straightened my hair, and it looked even better in a bob now. My eyes were full of black eye shadow and my lips were a deep shade of red. Overall, I looked so much better than before. I hadn't looked this good since the hospital scene.
"Oh you're so good at it! I love it!" I smiled at her and then stared at her. She was wearing a black mini dress with he

*Now*Aubree's PovThe bright sunlight peeped into our room and made my eyes open. Urghh! It was too sunny today, and yesterday night we were too preoccupied that we forgot to draw the curtains. And it was not only the sunlight that made me feel uneasy, my entire body was aching with pain.Thinking about last night, I peeped into the blanket and saw Jaden sleeping peacefully. I got up from the bed, without making a noise, and covered my partially naked form with a dress that I wore last night, which lay scattered on the floor, along with the rest of our clothes.I quickly went into the bathroom and brushed my teeth, and while doing that, my gaze landed on the sparkling diamond that lay upon my finger, making it shine with a bright light, and making a smile appear on my lips.I never could have imagined such a wonderful proposal.After brushing my teeth, I ran into the shower and removed my ring and placed it on the

Aubree's Pov"I'm so glad that you came back Aubree!!" Anna welcomed me in her office and I was too amazed to look at it. I had always wondered how the place where I worked look like, and this wasn't what I imagined. The view in front of me was too fascinating.I saw the black and white theme and was amazed at how neat and beautiful it looked. It was well maintained and also very professional.Today morning, we woke up in our new apartment, which was way too simple and contained just two rooms and no furniture except a bed and a couch. Jaden said that it would be great if I could begin decorating this apartment so this way I would remember things about my profession and I thought it to be a wonderful idea. So today morning he went towards his office and Anna drove me here."This place is so great mom." I said in awe and she smiled at me."Bless you child! It was you who designed it, and you can call me Anna." She said and I smiled.

Aubree's PovSilently I entered the apartment and tiptoed towards our room and locked it while I sat on the bed and began rummaging through the pages of the diary. Jaden wasn't home yet and I knew that I had almost an hour before he came back.As I was trying to find the date that I remembered, I saw that a packet with white powder fell on the ground. I picked to inspect it and I realised what it was.What the hell?I was on drugs? I never knew I would even consider such a thing. Oh my god! I could not believe it. I instantly packed the powder in a packet and threw it out of the window.Now my curiosity level had increased even more. I opened a page and found that I had written about that club where I went, and all the memories after that was a blur. So I began to read from the next date onwards.25th May 2007Hey Diary, this is me Aubree again! You have no idea what happened today! After that par

Aubree's Pov"Good morning Aubree!" Katy wished me when I reached the office and I sat on my chair while she sat on hers."Good morning Katy." I wished her and Anna came out of her cabin."Hey Aubree! I'm so glad you're here. I have to go for work and I need Katy with me. You will have to manage all the calls today." She said and I nodded. Yes you could go, after all, I need to be alone to read my diary."Okay sure, I'll see you tomorrow then?" I said and bid them goodbye."And hey, I guess Jaden will drop by here again, he knows you would be alone today." Katy said while she walked away.Oh crap! Not that I don't love having him around, but still I need time to complete reading this.I took out my diary which was now neatly covered in a magazine cover and read the next diary entry. I never wrote diary everyday, I just wrote the moments which were special. So it was a good thing I guess.15th&n

Jaden's PovAmazing, isn't it? How time changes all the situations?There used to be a time when I ran away from all my problems. I knew time would heal them. But never in my life did I know that the person who detests me actually loved me.Hatred, yes she told me this is the only thing that she feels for me. How could someone love you so much but still tell you that they hate you? What wrong had I done to her? I had never in my life touched any other woman except her. I had tried to get her a job at mom's office, which she actually did very well, but her addiction was eating her alive. She was on drugs and ran away from the rehab center two times.When I found her lying unconscious after falling from the first floor of our apartment, my heart was shattered into a million pieces. I loved her since the beginning and watching her lying with blood coming out of her head made me mad. How could someone who had such a beautiful heart, end up li

Aubree's Pov"So you have your physiotherapy session today right?" Jaden asked me while we were having lunch."Oh shit! I totally forgot about it!" I said and he began to laugh."No worry dear, I'm there for you, remember?" He said and I smiled, such a sweetie he was."But actually, there is something else I wanted to talk about." Jaden said and brought my attention to him."Yes sure, what's up?" I asked him."I was wanting to ask you about the wedding. I think it's time for us to start planning it." He said and a big smile appeared on my face."Yes! I would love to Jaden." I said with excitement."I've brought some magazines, and some ideas, so just go through them once, then we can start planning everything." Jaden said and I nodded. Obviously I was excited about this all.So let me cut it short, we had lunch, then Jaden took me out for my physiotherapy session, and finally, I went home. I wanted to kn

Aubree's PovMy friends used to tease me, whenever they found out that I was hearing to Eminem. They said that being a cheerleader, I was expected to like girly songs, but I disagreed.Why does the society get to decide what we like? Or what should we like? I was girly enough to like Eminem. And they were bitchy enough to make me feel bad that I liked him.DiscriminationWe begin discriminating people not because we love to. We do it because this is how we are brought up. This is how society works. They fill shit into children's minds ever since they take their first steps, and then as they grow up, they begin to work on their parent's footsteps.They learn it when they see their mothers throwing away the first slice of bread, because it is burnt and it is not good, not telling the child that it got burnt up so as to keep the rest of the bread pieces safe. They learn discriminating when they choose what colour is their favourite. A

Aubree's Pov"It has been four days Laura. I don't think Jaden would come now." I told Laura while we were sitting in a nice small coffee shop, sipping cappuccinos."Trust me, he will come. He just needs time okay?" Laura said, trying to keep my hope alive.The day I left Jaden, I went to my parent's house. But I did not tell them about our fight. I just said that I needed some time to spend with them, and they were more happy than ever.I got to know more about them, and also that my younger brother was in a college and was going to visit me as soon as possible.I never knew I would miss Jaden this much. It was only four days and yet I missed him so badly. Maybe this was because he was with me since the day I got up, but all I knew was that I was dying to see him again.I was dying to feel the softness of his lips upon mine, I was missing the way he used to hug me and tell that everything was going to be fine. He was the mo

Aubree's POVOne step forward, then the other following the same ordeal and stepping further, just a robotic movement and I knew I could do it. After all, I had endured much worse situaions in my life, other than walking on the aisle.My emotionless face, my tear stained eyes, my smudged blush and the imperfect lip gloss were hidden from the eyes of this world with a white veil. But now I knew that it would be the last day that I would cry for such a person. The last day that I had cried for my best friend Laura.The entire hall was full with people that I knew, who used to love me, but then, who knew the truth any longer?My face was still emotionless, just staring at the man who stood at the altar, ready to accept me as his love again, and this time, no one could separate us.It strained my heart. Well, strained wasn't even the word to define how my heart felt. Ever since I met her, I knew she would be my best friend forever. Who

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

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 *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'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*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*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*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*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
