Forever?

Chapter 8

*Aubrey*

I go to the door only to find a letter. I pick it up and come back inside. When I open it I realize who it's from. My aunt. I start to cry not because I miss her or anything, but because the memories came back. I get flashbacks of when I was little. "Aubrey what's wrong?" Jason asks with concern. "It's from my aunt. When I was little she use to love me so much up until the time my parents got divorced and then it was as if she hated me. It's like she wanted to get back at my mom. I remember going to her condo with my grandparents and cousin. She let everyone in except me. She looked me dead in the eye and shut the door. I looked around seeing if anyone saw. No one was there. I knocked on the door and my grandma had to let me in. My aunt said, 'Oh I'm sorry I didn't see you.' Her and my grandma laughed. I laughed to just to act like it was nothing. It hurt. Imagine being 8 years old and having your aunt slam the door on your face. I didn't tell my mom until I was 14. Now she expects me to be her best friend? No. I can't put myself through that again. I can accept what she did, but it wasn't okay. I'm done with her" Jason pulls me into a big hug. "Aubrey it's okay." We go back to the couch and finish the movie. "Jason, would you like to sit on my roof and look at the stars?" He smiles and says, "Of course Bree." We sat on the roof and as we looked at the stars I said, "You know our lives can end at any given second? I mean what if the next thing you said was the last thing you could ever say to me again? What would you even say to that?" He gives me a look of seriousness. "I would say, Aubrey I think you're the most beautiful girl in this world. You're so special to me. I love the way your eye shine when you talk about something you love. I love the way my name comes out of your mouth. I love that southern accent. I love the way your hair falls perfectly down your back. I love your kind personality. It's so strong and independent yet soft and sweet. Aubrey I just love you. I love you more than anything in this world if we're being honest."

*Jason*

I meant every word. She's the light of my life. I live in a dark world and she's the light to it. She's my hope. Without her I wouldn't be able to take knowing my dad is out of prison. She looks at me and smiles. "Jason I love you too." I smile so big. I'm so happy. "Jason I love the way you care. You treat me as if I'm a million dollars. As if I'm so fragile that if you touch me wrong I'll break. I feel safe with you. Nothing can hurt me as long as I'm in your arms. Jason I love you more than words. You're the sun shine to my rainy day." I can't speak. I lean in and kiss her. It's a long passionate kiss. Full of love and hope. We pull away after what seems forever. I'm in love with her. We go back to her room and watch movies. She falls asleep in my arms. I look down at my beautiful Aubrey. Her hair is in a braid. She looks beautiful. I mean she's in sweatpants and slightly big t-shirt. This girl is beautiful. If anything ever happen to her I'd die. I swear if Chandler ever tries to hurt her again I'll kill him. I promise I will. I hold her in my arms and shortly fall asleep too. Goodnight my beautiful Aubrey. I'm In love with you.
