This is a short story.
"New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings."
-Lao Tzu-
Both were broken. Both were hurt. Both swore never to give their broken hearts away again. But all it took was one look for them to get involved in something much more than a fleeting romance. Maybe they were fixing each other to make way for something better? They were fixing the broken.
*This is the spin-off story to All for a Reason, it can be read as a stand alone novel but if you plan to read All for a Reason I'd recommend reading it first as there will be spoilers for it in this book*
"Look into my eyes and tell me you hate me Aubry!" He yelled in my face. I looked up, and couldn't help it as I stared at him with wide eyes. It was getting harder to keep up my mask. "You can't can you?" He laughed as the tears started to run down my cheeks. The worst part was he's right, I could never hate him no matter how much I tried. "No Jason, I don't hate you. I just don't love you anymore." I walked away holding on to the pieces of my heart he just reshattered.
