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
AubreyBeing with Vincent was amazing.He made me extremely happy and I love him. His smile lit up my day. We have been dating for 5 months and things couldn't be better. I now lived with Vincent. So many things happened. For instance, he threw an amazing birthday party for me. We didn't travel much because of Damien but we sure had a great time. I am now 23 and happily living with Vincent.Damien is 6 months now and is moving around. Vincent loves Damien as much as I did and they both got along well.Every night before he slept, Vincent and I would always sing to him. "I'm lying on the moonMy dear, I'll be there soonIt's a quiet, starry placeTime's we're swallowed upIn space we're here a million miles awayThere's things I wish I knewThere's no thing I'd keep from youIt's a dark and shiny placeBut with you my dearI'm safe and we're a million miles awayWe're lying on the moonIt's a perfect afternoonYour shadow follows me all dayMaking sure that I'mOkay and we're a million
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. It wasn't as far as I thought it would be. It was two streets away from Caleb's house.Vincent was spending the day at his mom's, and I left Damien with Emma. She wanted him to get familiar with his cousins. Vincent said that he would pick up Damien on his way home so I didn't have to worry about that.I pulled into the yard and was greeted by a beautiful villa. 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
