Aiden's P.O.V.

I hear the distinct sound of thunder in the distance and smell the rain coming. It's time to leave the corner and head into the alley or find a shelter. So I stand up and get ready to leave when I hear: "Aiden, Aiden!!!" coming from around the corner. "Justine."  I half whisper. "Aiden where are you?" I don't want her to see me like this again, but it's inevitable as she turns the corner and runs to me. Her body crashes into mine as we hug. Her lips meet mine and we kiss. I wrap my arms around her waist and she looks at me, tears filling her eyes. "Where'd you go?" She asks. "I'm sorry. I couldn't handle Harry's death so I ran back to what I know. I won't leave you again. I promise." She chuckles and then hails a taxi. We slide in the taxi and she smiles then looks at me and says:"Ready to go home?" She asks. "Yeah. Let's go home."
