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 Pov"Laura I know that I don't remember anything, but I'm sure about the fact that I would never cheat on you with Nathan." I said. Even in a thousand years, I could never think about cheating on her. She was my friend and I cared about her, just they way she did for me."I know Aubree, that you won't cheat on me intentionally. But at that time you were totally depressed. You did not even talk with people at that time, and hence you slept with him because it was the only way to get that all out of your system. I don't care whatever happened that night because now I'm over it." Laura heaved a sigh and I realised that no matter how many times she said she was over it, she never would be."You still love Nathan right?" I asked her. As this was the most obvious thing in this world. Their relationship had drowned because of me, so maybe, I should be the one to mend it again."It doesn't matter now Aubree. He's seeing someone else now.

    Jaden's Pov"So let me begin, I will tell you everything that I know. But in turn, you have to promise me that you won't even think about suicide." I said and looked at her pale face, trying to solve out the puzzle that she was. I knew her better than everyone else, but I never knew what was on her mind anymore."I promise, now you can begin." She said, and looked at me, waiting to spill out all the beans before her."This all began when I started to date Isla. So let me begin with how we began to date." I said.*Then*Jaden's PovI was still sitting in the cafeteria while I saw Aubree rushing out of the place as if she were hit by a hurricane. A moment ago, she was all fine, excited even, but as soon as I told her that I have a crush on Isla, she became silent for a while and then rushed away.I wonder what the problem was.And I wonder

    Jaden's Pov*Then*I was getting worried about Aubree day by day. Four years had passed by, and we had finally graduated from the university with our respective degrees.As time changed, our friendship also changed.Laura had become totally distant, and and then she moved out of the country, for her job. The only way I connected with her was through facebook.Nathan and I were good now. Better than before, but still not the same. We used to hang out together, but still we too were distant.And well, Aubree was a totally different case. I hadn't spoken to her in the past two years. She had become totally focused in bad boys, and all she did was to hang out with them. Whenever I tried to call her, she ignored and moved away.So one day, I called Isla."I'm worried about Aubree. She isn't behaving normally. She sleeps over at random guy's places an

    Jaden's Pov*Then*"Hey Jaden, I did not expect to meet you, hey Isla, and hey sir." Aubree said as she got into the car and sat next to Sebastian, while Isla was next to me.The way she said my name, I knew that she was taunting me, and the way she called him sir, she was verbally trying to seduce him. What did I do now?What the hell was my fault? It felt as if she was blaming me for something wrong that I had done. I wish I knew what that was."Hey Aubree, I'm so glad that you came." Isla said."I'm glad too." I whispered."I'm sure you are." She said, loud enough for me to hear.While we drove towards the resturant, I heard Aubree flirting with Sebastian, yet she ignored each and every sentance that I said. And being a jerk that Seb was, was, even he started to flirt with her, and he ignored me too. Why she did this was beyond me. She wasn't like this

    Jaden's Pov*Then*The worst came over one day, when I was sleeping and suddenly, my phone began to ring. At first, I ignored it, but later I thought it might be important. I got up and saw the name Aubree flashing over my screen. And in an instant, a smile came over my face. And I realised that I was already in love with her, it just took me five years, to finally realise that.I instantly picked up the phone."Hello Aubree." I said into the speaker excitedly,maybe, it would be the start of something new for us."I.. need.. help." She whispered into the phone, and a cold chill ran down my spine. Her voice indicated that she was in trouble. I instantly got up, forgetting my sleep and realising that it was a serious issue."Where are you?" I asked her as I ran into my car, fumbling with my keys. I was too worried that I could not even

She met Laura, she met Nathan.I was dyning to see her, not because I wanted to love her, but because I wanted to protect her from the world.I went in and the look on her face broke my heart. She looked so innocent, so pure. A life that was shattered by some external force.Do you know what it feels like to be so near to lose someone you love too much?Do you know what it feels like?

    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
