"So you'll meet me at the park in an hour?" Vincent asked excitedly.

"Yes, I will!" I gushed.

"I have a surprise for you."

"I can't wait to see what it is," I giggled. It's been so long since I spent time with Vincent, and I missed him dearly.

"Well, I'll see you in a bit."

After hanging up, I squealed with excitement. I wanted to see Vincent and just wrap my arms around him. My feelings for him have grown a lot, and I would love to tell him how I feel.

"What's gotten you soo excited?" Emma laughed as she entered the room.

"I'm meeting Vincent in an hour," I blushed, and she winked.

"I have to make you look amazing for him, and I'll watch Damien for the rest of the evening until you get back," she babbled, which woke Damien, and he began crying.

I scooped him into my and rocked him gently.

"Awww, did Emmy wake you?" I cooed as I settled him down.

"You're a great mom," Emma smiled as Damien fell asleep.

"Now go take a shower while I pick out something for you to wear."

    Aubrey While Damien was napping in the bassinet near me, I took some time for myself. I decided to watch a movie to get my mind off Vincent. Emma went home to her family and Blake is gone on a two week business trip in England. The door opened and my mom came inside. She looked extremely tired."Today was such a long day. I'm exhausted," she sighed as she sat down."Trouble at the company?" "Yes, but nothing I couldn't handle." "Where is Dad?" I questioned."He's still down there sorting a few things out. He'll be home soon."I settled for watching 'The Kissing Booth' and mom made some snacks for us.A couple minutes later the doorbell rang. "I'll get it," I walked to the door and opened it. My breath caught in my throat as I saw Vincent standing there with the same girl from earlier. "Aubrey can we talk?" He questioned."I'm kind of busy right now.""Please. It will only take a sec," he pleaded."Alright," I stepped outside."I'll be waiting in the car. Call if you need me," th

    AubreySabrina invited me over to their house, which wasn't very far from Caleb's. She insisted on me coming and was super excited about it.I managed to find it very easily.

She wanted him to get familiar with his cousins.

It was really magnificent.Sabrina was already waiting there for me. She was practically bursting with joy."Aubrey! I'm so glad you could make it." She cheered as she pulled me in for a hug."Of course I wouldn't miss it for the world.""Great. Let's go inside." The interior was just as amazing as the outside. In fact, it was spectacular. I loved it."This is beautiful.""You like it?" She asked."I love it. Those paintings are so unique." I commented as

    Vincent That phone call shattered me. I would never forget that day. The day I heard Aubrey died. I lost everything. Everything I built and worked for was gone. Aubrey is gone and this time she wasn't coming back. I cried until I couldn't anymore. The tears wouldn't stop. My heart ached and I couldn't heal it. Aubrey wasn't here. Haden moved out of town and gave me the last few things he had of Aubrey that was left in his room. It was small items like clothes and stuff. He wanted a fresh start and I know that Aubrey's death hurt him a lot. His way of coping with it was leaving everything behind.I scrolled through my phone and looked at the pictures. My beautiful Aubrey was gone and the sad part is that they didn't find her body. They said she was swept away by the rough current when the car fell into the water. It was awful, blood was all over the dashboard and the car was wrecked. They returned the few of Aubrey's possessions they managed to find.I leaned on Allessandra's should

    VincentIt's been over two years since Aubrey's accident and I still hadn't gotten over her. I still love her just the same and I knew that would never change. Damien was now 3 years old and I made sure and kept the memory of Aubrey alive to him. He often looked at the pictures of her and mumbled 'Momma'. It broke my heart every time.I dropped him off at preschool every day before I headed to work. I didn't even bother dating other people. It wouldn't matter. I still want Aubrey.Everyone grew distant. Most of them moved out of town and did other things. Emma moved to an entirely different country. Aubrey was like the glue that held us all together and now that she was gone, things fell apart.I rarely saw Haden but when I did he would have this look on his face. He looked tired and frustrated. We barely spoke. It was awkward. We both played huge roles in Aubrey's life. Besides I had no idea what to tell Haden or what we should talk about.Last time I heard, he was dating his persona

    Aubrey"Bye Haden." I pecked his lips and sent him off to work. He smiled warmly at me and left.As soon as he was gone. I decided to check the basement again. However, I was stopped short in my tracks as I realised it now had a lock on the door. I ran to the room we shared to look for the key.'It has to be here somewhere.' I thought frantically as I searched.Opening his drawer I searched through his socks. Eventually I found the silver key that would fit perfectly. I didn't know he was this serious about shutting me out.I opened the basement and went through the boxes. I found other stuff such as photos of me when I had my memory. There was a photo of Haden and I at our wedding. It was similar to the one on my nightstand. We rarely had photos together . He told me that we have been to a lot of places but when the accident happened my phone was destroyed and all of our pictures were lost.I stumbled upon a box filled with pictures of Haden and Vincent. There was a range of photos f

    Aubrey I stood there just looking at him. I was utterly confused. I had no idea what he was talking about."I'm sorry. Maybe you have mistaken me for some other Aubrey.""No. I don't think so." He smiled as he hugged me again. He opened his phone and sent a message to someone. A huge grin was on his face."Well, I-"Xavier. What are you doing here?" "Haden! What the hell, man? You disgust me. You make me sick." Xavier yelled."Aubrey, go upstairs and lock the door. I'm gonna talk to Xavier."I scurried away as the tension built between them. I ran into my room and sat on the bed. What did he mean by saying,'You're alive'. I know it's linked to the accident. Did something else happen?It felt like hours had passed, but I dare not come out of the room. I think I fell asleep. Then there was a knock on the door. I slowly opened it to reveal Haden. He was standing there with a worried expression."Are you okay?" He questioned as he hugged me."I'm fine, but I think you have some explai

    Aubrey I was all set to leave. Haden had already gone to work, and I was prepared to go meet Xavier. While Haden was showering earlier, I managed to get Xavier's number off his phone.I took a cab and while I was traveling I decided to call him.The phone rang, but he never answered. That's strange. I guess he's probably busy.The only person's number I have is Haden's. I had no other friends, so it's not like I could hang out somewhere. I sighed and thought about what I could do. Then it hit me, and I realised that the only way to find Xavier is to go to Haden's company. I knew it was risky, but it was worth the try.I put on my hat and walked into the company. The secretary smiled when she saw me."Mr. Vanderbilt is here today. He's in his office." She said immediately."No, no, that's not necessary. I was sort of hoping that you would give me some information about Xavier Vanderbilt, Haden's brother." "He doesn't work here, but he is part of the company. He is more responsible fo

In the back of my mind, I was tempted to open it, but that wouldn't be right."Ugh, I should just give it to her," I thought out loud as I stood up.I took the letter up and went to her room. As I was about to knock on the door, Mom opened it."Hey, sweetie," She smiled."Mom, some guy gave me a letter to give to you," I passed it to her."Oh?"She opened it and I saw her eyes widen as she read its contents."W-Who gave this to you?" She stuttered."I don't know him, but he had black hair and blue eyes. He looked like he was in his 40s. He was tall and buff."Her eyebrows furrowed as she thought for a moment."Could it be....?" Her voice trailed off."Is something wrong?""Everything is fine, sweetie, but please don't speak to strangers, okay?""Sure."I wonder who that guy was and what Mom's hiding.I didn't have school today, and I just wanted to rest my body.As I was sitting on the sofa watching th

    Damien"So, are you gonna come to Jonah's party, Phil?" I questioned as we entered the library."Of course not.""Why?""I just don't feel like it." He shrugged."Is it because he's dating Evelyn?" I questioned and he stiffened."No, Evelyn can do whatever the hell she wants. That's not my concern.""Well, you never usually miss a party so I assumed something was up.""I'm just focusing on my studies, I don't need any distractions.""Whatever you say bro."We sat and finished our essay for literature class.Halfway through the essay I heard Phil sigh and drop his pen on the table.

"I'm sure she will. Speaking of that I should be getting home and you should come with me. You could ask my mom about Xavier." I suggested."That sounds good." We took the bus and arrived home in 20 minutes."Hello Cassidy. How are you?" Mom smiled."I'm fine Aunty. How are you?" "I'm good darling.""You're home early. Didn't you have practice?" Mom asked me."I did but something much more important came up. Mom, Cassidy and I need to talk to you about something." "Ofcourse." She said calmly but a worried look graced her features.We walked into the living room and mom sat opposite me."Do you guys want something to drink?" Mom asked."I'd like a glass of water." Cassidy said."Me too." I chimed in.Minutes later, mom came back with the water and some biscuits for us."Now, what's going

Mom smiled as she placed my breakfast in front of me.Dad came downstairs in a hurry with his suitcases. He's going to Italy for a week. "Daddy, do you have to go?"

    Aubrey was now 18 years old. She had grown into a beautiful young woman. Her beauty held no bounds. People would turn heads as soon as they saw her. Aubrey sat at the table, a frown on her face as she calmly went through the numbers for the party. "Hm? Am I missing someone?" She thought out loud as she looked at the list. Suddenly the door opened and someone walked in. Aubrey got up from her seat and bumped into Blake. She tumbled into him and almost fell to the ground, but he steadied her. "Are you okay?" He asked politely, and she nodded."I'm fine," she smiled as she looked up at him with her beautiful eyes. Blake cleared his throat and stepped at the side. "This is my parents' home. I would like to know who you are?" Blaked cracked a smile. "It's Aubrey silly," she giggled and looked up at him, "Welcome home," she smiled. "A-Aubrey?" He stuttered. "Yup. You're just on time. I was planning your party." "Nothing has changed," he scowled, "I don't want to be around you."

    Months had passed since Aubrey's return home. Despite the ongoing tension between her and Blake, life had settled into a semblance of normalcy.As young as she was, she was beginning to understand how things worked and how she would have to live with people not liking her. It might be difficult, but it was still important that she understand this concept. Aubrey had learned to navigate the unspoken boundaries in their home, trying her best not to provoke her brother's anger. She avoided him like the plague. She buried herself in her schoolwork, finding solace in her studies and the close bond she had developed with her parents and younger sister, Emma. Her parents ensured that she still enjoyed her life as she used to before. In fact, they sent Blake away as much as they could. One sunny afternoon, while playing in the backyard with Emma, Aubrey suddenly felt an overwhelming wave of dizziness wash over her. She had been running around, laughing, when her legs gave way, and she stum

    "Blake, what are you doing?" An 11 year old Emma questioned as she picked up a tray that was on the table in the study."Nothing that concerns you Emma," He held a stoic expression as he looked through the files. "What do you mean nothing that concerns me? You're going through dad's files and that's wrong! I'm going to tell." Blake's eyes narrowed at her. He was five years her senior and she knew better than to challenge him. "Emma," He paused, "Perhaps if we're outing each other now. Why don't I tell mom and dad that you failed that Spanish test?" He calmly threatened causing her to stiffen and grow pale. "Blake, you can't do that." "Then mind your own business. There's no way that you would think that it's actually okay to be involved in my affairs do you?" "No, I'll leave you be now," She muttered angrily as she left the room. Blake rolled his eyes and continued his search. His eyes lit up as he came upon the delicious truth he was looking for. A devious smirk danced on his
