Aubrey's POVA week later,"We are gathered at the burial of our beloved brother, friend, father, son, colleague to usher him into the great beyond today. We wish that the circumstances were different but we cannot help it." The priest said. The air was solemn and Mr. Knight rubbed my back. I was breathing hard seeing George's body in the sand, the only thought that came to my mind. He was killed because of me. I understood that this was a dogged arena and it got me thinking. Would things have been different, if he had exercised some patience? I didn't want to die too, but why couldn't we just have it all? Helen's eyes dug into my flesh like daggers and I didn't blame her for a second, a lot of us would have done the same. Hell, I would be more angry if it was my sister who was killed indiscriminately because of a so-called mate, so I didn't blame her one bit. " May the family step forward?" The priest said and Mr. Knight, Helen, Josh, Meg, and Ellie stepped forward.Mr. Knight si

Aubrey's POV"Yes, she was. But...she had a special gift, I think your sister inherited it." He replied." What's the gift?"

He answered and I stared at him softly. " What's the way forward?" I asked.He stared at me in confusion as he tried to understand what I was talking about. " I mean, now that the burial is out of the way and whatnot, what's the next step? What plans do you have for me?" " What would you like to do?" " I would like to return to college, I know it's not safe

Aubrey's POVThree Weeks Later. "Wake up Aubrey, aren't you going to school today?"I groaned, I was not having class until later in the afternoon, unless... Did I really sleep for that long?"

I was thoroughly plowed, in a good way though, the sheets fell from my body and I picked it up immediately." Are you still painfully shy?" He asked and I gave him a look. Of course, I was still shy, " You weren't shy last night." He teased and I felt my face grow hot indicating that I was highly embarrassed."Don't remind me." " You were begging for more. I can still remember you saying, harder! harder!" He mimicked my voice." I don't sound like that." He shrugged, " Well, that was what I heard, It's cute though." He said and I stared at him."
