-Brooke's POV-


The next couple of days were too much to bear. Aiden killed himself. I didn't even know him for a span of two days and it felt like a life time. Why did he have to die? My life was over, there was no point in living. If Aiden was dead, I needed to die too. I left work and went home, locked the door and ran to the kitchen, opened a drawer and pulled out a large butcher knife. I stared at the large knife in my hand for 10 seconds then lifted the knife away from my body and proceeded to stab myself in the stomach, when something grabbed the knife. I opened my eyes and looked into the face I'd never thought I'd see again. My mouth dropped open as I looked into the dark brown eyes of Aiden Wesley. "What are you doing?!?" He asked me, his eyes full of concern. I stood there with my mouth wide open. Aiden took the knife out of my hand and placed it on the counter. I knew then I was crazy. "A-Aiden?" I whispered. "Your not really here. You can't be, I saw your body hit the ground 30 floors below us. No one gets up from that." I said. "Brooke.." He whispered as he placed his hand on the side of my face. "I had to make you think I was dead. It had to be real. It was the only way for us to be together." He said. "I don't own a company this big without having money. No one died baby. It was all fake." I looked him in his eyes as my eyes burned with the tears forming in mine and I hugged him tightly. "I thought you were dead." I said, my voice breaking. "I thought I lost you." I hugged him even tighter. He hugged me back and rubbed the hair on my head. "I'm sorry Brooke. I never meant to hurt you." He said in a calm, soothing voice. I continued crying. "I'm right here. I won't ever do that again." He kissed my head and held me tightly. He picked me up and took me upstairs to my room and placed me into my bed. He kissed my forehead and laid in the bed beside me. He held me all night long. I never felt so safe or warm. The next morning I woke up and looked around my room. Wesley was no where to be found. I looked next to me and saw a note on the pillow next to me and it read:

"Hey Brooke, it's Aiden. I put you in your bed last night and I laid with you for most of the time but then, I left because I didn't want to invade your privacy. I love you.

-Aiden Wesley"

I smiled and held the note to my chest. "Aiden." I whispered. "I love you too."
