We met again in fall (book 2 of Just a professor)

Confession

Aubrey POV

I was sitting in my car not giving a damn to start the engine. I was still in the driveway outside off my house in the middle of the night. It feels like a lucid dream that Caitlin broke up with me.

The years we've spend together where special. I love her but I know I'm lying to myself and her. I don't love her like I loved Lizzie. She was different for me. I was always trying to find the things that where significant with Lizzie but that's not what you should do when your with someone else.

I feel like I used her and she is right that she was a place holder. Or a gap filler Name it what you want but I can hate myself for the fact that I did it.

It's pretty ironic if I think back it the relationship with Lizzie. She filled a gap with me as well while she was with Robbie. Now I did it to but in another way. Caitlin deserves better. Not me because I can't give her what she deserves.

After I whipped away my tears i started the engine driving off to god knows where.
The streets where empty and I ended up in front off my gallery debating on wether to go in or drive to another place...

Lizzie POV

The night creeped in and my mind stayed glued to Aubrey and what might have happened to her with Caitlin. I can't keep my mind shut and I was wandering around in my house trying to calm myself down desperately with no success.

I grabbed my phone wanting to call Aubrey but I realized that I don't have her number. Not her new one at least. Without thinking clearly I made my way back to her knocking on the door.

The door swung open and I saw Caitlin in her Pyjamas as her face is drained with tears.
Her expression frowns as she noticed who I am.
Fuck i think i did a wrong move coming back to Aubrey's place.

„she's not here." she answered knowing exactly for who I am here.

„A-Are you okay?" Shit Lizzie why do you ask such a dumbass question. She obviously isn't.

„What do you want? Is this some type of guilt trip?
Cause I don't have the patience to listen to that."
She spat at me sniffing and whipping her tears away.

„N-no I just ask that's all. Look I'm sorry I don't know why you guys are fighting but I'm sure it will get better." she raised her brow now in surprise.

„Oh god you don't know it do you? For fucking sake that's hilarious." she chuckled dryly at herself.

„What?" I asked confused.

„I broke up with her. Because after all these years she's still not over you." she said with a stern voice but calm.

„What why? We didn't do anything!" I answer and she raised ver brow.

„Don't try to fool me as well. She tried the same. You where all over her everyone knows it. She never really loved me anyway. Not like she loved you."

My heart stopped for a moment hearing that she says Aubrey loves me. Is she playing jokes on me now or is she really telling the truth?

„I'm not fooling you and I don't know what you saw but it's not true. She doesn't love me."

„Okay this is getting ridiculous. Everyone sees that Article. It's clearer than water that you guys have something going on. I was just a gap filler for her and she doesn't even want to admit it. I hear her songs and I saw her gallery. I realized it when It was to late. When I was already falling in love with her head over heals. All her work is dedicated to you don't you see it? You belong to her and she belongs to you. So please I don't know where she went but I told her to go so she did. Now if you'll excuse me I don't want to do this conversation." and she slammed the door shut not giving me a chance to explain myself.
