So without further ado, the chapter-

"Before, when I was leaving you in that hospital, you said something..." He trailed off and I froze instantly, knowing what he was talking about. That day in the hospital when he had left.

I watched in anxiousness as he regained his voice and spoke again.
"Well, I didn't have an answer then, but now I do." He said, looking down at me. I bit my lip and turned away. I was too mortified to look into his eyes. I considered running away from him, but immediately disregarded the thought when he pulled my face up to look at him, a sad look in his eyes.

"My answer is that I-" But, he was interrupted by someone calling his name.

We both turned abruptly to the voice and I stared hard. There stood a girl. Her hair as blonde as sunshine and her eyes an emerald green. She was looking at us and she had called Aaron's name.

But, who was she?

I turned to Aaron to see if he recognised her, but was only met with wide eyes. Aaron looked as though he had seen and ghost. His face had become significantly paler and he stood frozen to the spot. I was about to ask what was wrong, but Aaron opened his mouth and spoke.

"Avalon?" Aaron's voice rung out and he moved away from me.

Aaron's POV when Avalon returns- Part 2

Even now, when she looked at him with teary eyes, he felt a sense of dread fill him. Life was cruel and it brought a new bout of woe to him. It had thrust his past back in front of him, just when he had discovered means to move on.

"Avalon?" Aaron's voice rung out weakly when he found the courage to speak and then she nodded, making him stumble back.

This wasn't a nightmare. It was real.

Such a surreal sight, but it was real. He had to make sure as he moved closer, the dread building as the memories of his sordid past threatened to rise to the surface. The memories that Lexi had so expertly cast away with her light.

It was all for naught now.

He felt it as a single tear slid down Avalon's cheek as she looked at him and his eyes clenched shut as he looked to the side. He could vividly remember her tears like this when her parents had refused her permission for her Paris school trip because they had booked in a family holiday months prioe. This was while his own mother had thrown up over his consent form in her drunken stupor. He had decided not to go after that to placate Avalon. The memory cut him deep and he exhaled deeply, trying to dismiss the thoughts of how things had once been.

"Why are you here?" Aaron's voice echoed through the empty streets. He kept his voice cold and distant to protect himself from the emotions he tried vehemently to repress. He could remember seeing her in the arms of another in his guest bedroom after a party. It was enough to help with the cold tone and he watched as Avalon wiped her tears before looking to him with a look of adoration he could still remember. It only increased the agitation in him.
