"Hey Heather got the papers I asked you to finish for me?"

"Yes Mr. Matthews i've got them right here" Heather handed Auston a big pile of papers. Auston smiled at himself and made his way to his office.

Auston's life has changed significantly. 6 years ago he was a mess, an embarrassment to be exact. He knew that he needed to change quickly. He worked hard for years to become a CEO of his own company. His mom was truly proud of him.

He entered his office and sat down in his chair. He picked up a small basketball and tossed it into his basket which was hanging from the door. Auston's company was going well. He is considered one of the richest men in the country.

"Come in" Auston said as soon as he heard a knock on his door. "Hey babe" Jordyn, Auston's girlfriend said. She closed the door and gave her boyfriend a kiss. "How's my favourite girl doing?" Auston asked Jordyn who was now sitting on his lap. "Well other than your annoying assistant who almost spilled coffee on my new shirt, i'm doing fine" Jordyn said "You know you should really fire that chick."

"Babe Heather is a fantastic assistant, just give her a chance. You know she's a clumsy person" Auston tried to reason with her. "I know it's just that a little birdie told me she has a huge crush on you" Jordyn trailed off as Auston just gave her a peck on her temple.

"Jordyn she knows that I only have eyes on you" Auston said attempting to make Jordyn smile.

"I love you" Jordyn gave him a hug.

"I know" Auston said as he returned the hug.

"Hello to the lovely couple!" Mitch barged into Auston's office. Jordyn got up from Auston's lap. "You should learn how to knock shortie" Jordyn rolled her eyes at him.

"You know if you roll your eyes that much, your eyeballs may fall out" Mitch told her as Jordyn groaned and left his office.

"So Auston I have some great news!" Mitch sat down on a chair "Our company is expanding!" Mitch said as Auston's eyes widen. "What do you mean?" Auston asked his partner.

"Well apparently we are in need to expand our company and in order to do that we need to move the company to another country or city" Mitch said as he spotted a bowl full of candy on Auston's desk.

"Mitch what's going to happen? Tell me the plans" Auston said slapping the chocolate bar out of Mitch's hand. "Well some of your employees will stay here while we will go to the new location to get a good start. Once we're done there we head back here and continue to work" Mitch said as his phone started to ring.

"I have to take this" Mitch got up from the chair. "Mitch where is our new location?" Auston asked Mitch before he left.

"Hawaii" Mitch said leaving Auston's office.

Auston sat back down and opened his drawer. He pulled out a locket. Inside was a photo of himself and Ariana. He sighed once he saw a photo of Jordyn and himself on his desk. Auston saw the garbage bin, he got up and stared at it.

"It's time to move on" Auston threw the locket in the garbage. "Heather please empty my garbage bin!!" Auston yelled for his assistant and went back to his work.
