That phone call shattered me. I would never forget that day. The day I heard Aubrey died.

I lost everything. Everything I built and worked for was gone. Aubrey is gone and this time she wasn't coming back. I cried until I couldn't anymore. The tears wouldn't stop. My heart ached and I couldn't heal it. Aubrey wasn't here.

Haden moved out of town and gave me the last few things he had of Aubrey that was left in his room. It was small items like clothes and stuff. He wanted a fresh start and I know that Aubrey's death hurt him a lot. His way of coping with it was leaving everything behind.

I scrolled through my phone and looked at the pictures. My beautiful Aubrey was gone and the sad part is that they didn't find her body. They said she was swept away by the rough current when the car fell into the water. It was awful, blood was all over the dashboard and the car was wrecked. They returned the few of Aubrey's possessions they managed to find.

I leaned on Allessandra's shoulder. She flew in immediately for Aubrey's memorial service. I needed her support during this time. It was almost impossible to live.

"Vincent would you like to say something?" Aubrey's mom asked and I nodded. I slowly made my way up to the podium. I tried my best to keep my emotions together.

"I didn't think everyone would be gathered here, not under this circumstance. Aubrey is my soulmate. She is the only woman I truly loved. She made my world complete. It's impossible to go on without her. I love her soo much and it hurts that I won't get her back. She is gone and I miss her. I miss my sweet angel." I paused as the tears fell. I felt a hand on my shoulder and saw Haden. He was here for support. He nodded at me and I continued.

"Aubrey will always be a part of us and to me she will always be in my heart. I could never stop loving her. She means the world to me and I appreciate her. Aubrey made me see things differently. She lit up my world and she was soo kind and pure that I often thought that she was too good for the people in this world. In fact she was too good for me. She will never be forgotten. Aubrey, I love you. I will always love you."

After saying my speech I sat down. Haden asked to say a few words as well.

"It's no lie that Aubrey severed our bond. But for the time I knew her, she was amazing and I failed to see that. She was one of the most caring persons I knew and that made her awesome. Aubrey was beautiful and fantastic. I asked for her forgiveness but she turned me down and I understood why. I hurt her and it was hard for her to recover from what I put her through. In her last days I wanted to win her back but I gave up when I realized that she was happier with Vincent.Aubrey will always be in our hearts and minds ,forever and always."

The rest of the service was emotional. Everyone was crying and in a melancholy mood. I couldn't even think straight. I was still in denial. I couldn't believe that she was actually gone. I want to believe that I would just wake up from this awful dream. That all of this is nightmare and Aubrey is still here with me.

We didn't even get married. Everytime I thought I had Aubrey, she would just slip right through my fingers. I lost her once again, but permanently this time.

I promised her that I would always find her and save her. How could I get to you now Aubrey? You're way out of reach.

There were pictures and videos of Aubrey that we showcased in remembrance of her.

"I know this is hard Vincent but we have to be strong." Emma said as she stood next to me.

"I'm tired of being strong. I'm broken. I'm lost and fragile without her. There's nothing else to live for."

"Yes there is, there is Damien. Even though he isn't your son, Aubrey saw something in him. She wanted to be there for him. I think you should be there for him too. He is like a reminder of Aubrey's selflessness and kindness."

"You're right. I will look after him. There was no doubt about that. I just miss her and knowing that I didn't even get to see her before she left hurts even more.I would give anything to see Aubrey one last time."

"It all happened soo fast. She was just hanging with family and in an instant she was gone. I couldn't believe it when I heard it."

"Aubrey was finally happy. She was living the life she deserved. It all got taken away from her."

"I know Aubrey and she would want us to be happy. She wouldn't want us to be sad."

After talking to Emma I went home. Damien was silent. He kept looking around for Aubrey and the sight broke my heart because she was gone.

I put him in his crib and sang his song just like I did with Aubrey then I went to bed.

Lying there alone, the tears fell from my eyes. I was alone. The bed felt empty because Aubrey wasn't there. In that moment I knew that I could never move on. My heart belonged to Aubrey.

Aubrey, I will always love you.

My eyes fluttered open revealing a creme coloured room. The bed was soft and comfortable. Raising my hand I felt a bandage on my forehead. How did that get there? I wondered as I looked around the room trying to understand where I was.

I saw a glass of water on the table and drank it. I couldn't move from the bed as I felt really weak but I tried anyway.

After falling down several times I finally got up.

I walked around and looked into the mirror. I was wearing a blue dress and my hair was in a mess. I further inspected the bandage by pressing it. As I did that a wave of pain flashed through my head instantly giving me a mild headache. What did I do to get such a nasty wound?

My stomach growled and I needed something to eat immediately. I opened the door and carefully made my way downstairs.

Was this even my house? If so, why can't I remember ever being in it? It was so unfamiliar to me.

I eventually located the kitchen and settled for some fruit in a bowl. I munched on an apple and a couple grapes. Opening the fridge I grabbed a bottle of milk and drained all its contents.

I wanted to look around but I was super tired. I needed answers but I felt weak so I crashed on the couch. I shut my eyes and dosed off into sleep.

I don't know how long I was asleep but I heard the sound of a door open. Who could that be?

Was that an intruder?

I grabbed the item closest to me which happened to be a lamp. I slowly walked over to the door. I saw the figure of a person and fear consumed me. I held on tightly to that lamp as I approached the person.

I swung the lamp and it connected with what looked like the person's chest.

"Ouch, what the hell!" A male voice said.

I walked out to see the intruder. It wasn't who I expected. My jaw dropped at the sight. This man was incredibly sexy.He has dark brown hair and piercing green eyes. His pink lips were pouted as he rubbed his chest. He was gorgeous.

"Care to tell me why you hit me Aubrey?" He questioned as he approached me.

"Stay back!" I commanded as I pointed the lamp at him. He held his hand up in surrender.

"Alright . I'll stay here, just drop the lamp. It's okay." He stated calmly.

"How do you know my name?"

"You don't remember me?" He questioned and I shook my head no.

"I don't remember anything."

"Aubrey, I'm Haden. Haden Vanderbilt. We're married. I'm your husband."
