Chapter 31

Aurora's POV

I never thought moving to Australia would be just the thing I needed. I had the irrational fear that everything back home would follow me here.

All the fear and the hurt. For months everything I saw when I closed my eyes was Aaron's face, he had always been devilishly handsome. All sharp angles of his cheekbones and face.

He looked like the type of guy who was beautiful in the worst type of way. Where you knew that he would cause trouble with just one look, but you just never wanted to admit it.

When I came here, when I first met Luke, I'd judged every guy I'd met. Even Luke, which seemed rational at the time, but now made me feel guilty

Luke wasn't like him, he wasn't dark, icy eyed or sly. He was all gold and baby blues and kind. Most guys would have given up chasing after me, he didn't and I can't tell how happy I am he didn't.

We've had a great senior year this year. I had known this this move might not have been a permanent thing, that my parents might want to move back, even if it wasn't in New York anymore

I thought I would stay here, go to college here, or maybe somewhere close by with Luke. He had talked about it and applied to the same colleges. It sounded perfect.

Until my parents got something in the mail. I had gone up to my room and cried for the longest time, it was my fault and I just kept blaming myself.

What made it worst was when the phone started ringing and seemed to never stop. I didn't want to talk to my mom about it, I didn't want to talk to anyone.

I was aware of my own phone ringing and beeping with texts, but I never got up to check any of them. I couldn't talk to anyone right now, not even Luke. Should I tell him? I didn't know, I already felt like this whole thing was my fault.

Going to Addison's house to study for finals was the first time I got out of the house in days. I could barely focus on the work in front of me. So when Ashton texted Addison saying that the boys were going to come pick us up, I was both thankful and fearful

I didn't even know if I was going to be able to look Luke in the eyes..
