Sierra gave her a bright emile. Bree…

I feel like the old Aubrey is back. The one who was bright, confident, and wrong”
Aubrey offered her a knowing emile.

I came back to Crestview hoping to find some of my old memories, Audrey said, “Pout in feels like there’s nothing left here worth holding on Why do you even want them backs
Because of Damon, Aubrey admitted, her voice tinged with frustration. I forgot him. I don’t have those memories of us being in lone, and led lines

Don’t go digging for them,” Sierra said, her voice turning serious. “The past wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows. You of what you two had was the pain if breaking up and that gut–wrenching longing that followed.”
Aubrey’s gaze darkened. She stared at Sierra, falling silent.
Sierra leaned in, her voice dropping to a low whisper. “Without those memories… do you will love him?
Aubrey froze. Love was a heavy word. It was something that needed time to settle, to truly take root
What was love, anyway?
She couldn’t give her an answer. She wasn’t sure if a few days together was enough to fall for a man all over again. All she could do was trust what the elt in the moment.
I wouldn’t call it love yet,” she said. “But my heart skips a beat when he’s around. And when he’s gone… I miss him.”
Sierra gave her a wide, knowing smile. “That’s more than enough. Damon is crazy about you. You two are only going to get happier from here.”
Aubrey scoffed, her voice laced with irony. “Does he really love me that much? I’ve been back for three days. He sent a few messages on the Grid the irst day, but he’s practically ignored me for the last two.”
Maybe he’s just busy,” Sierra offered.
Busy with what? He’s on vacation.”

ace.
Sierra’s eyes went wide when she saw his reply. “Holy shit…” she blurted out.
Aubrey’s expression soured. She slowly lowered her phone, a wave of annoyance washing over her. She felt miserable.
Sierra looped an arm through hers. “Just stay in Crestview for a few more days. I’ll show you a good time. Forget about him. Give it a few days, and he’ll be desperate to have you back.”
Aubrey just smiled, staying silent.
After leaving the restaurant, they hit some local sights and went shopping at the mall. Aubrey gradually got comfortable around Sierra, the awkwardness finally fading.
While they were browsing the shops, Aubrey couldn’t help but ask, “Sierra, I want to get him a gift. Something unique. But I don’t know what would be good.”
“What does he need?”
“He doesn’t need anything.”

Sierra rubbed her chin, lost in thought. Suddenly, her eyes lit up with a mischievous glint. Tve got it! Trust me, he’s going to love this”
Aubrey leaned in, her eyes lighting up with excitement. “What is it? What are you getting him?
‘Don’t worry about it. Leave it to me,” Sierra said, patting her chest confidently. “It’s cheap, but it’s meaningful. He’s going to love it. Guaranteed. Aubrey was dying to know, but Sierra wouldn’t budge. She kept her lips sealed, refusing to give anything away.
Over the next few days, Sierra skipped work to show Aubrey a good time. They spent every waking moment exploring the best spots in Crestview City. They hit the Tech District and the beach, stuffed themselves with fresh seafood, and grabbed dinner at the Country Inn Retreat. They took tons of photos at every stop, posting updates to their Social Feeds every single day.
Sierra was a firecracker–outgoing, direct, and a total wild child when she wanted to be.
All that lingering longing for Damon? It vanished. The thrill of the trip pushed him right to the back of her mind.
he stopped texting him altogether. Just like that, they went radio silent for the next few days.
The night before their flight back, right after booking their tickets, Sierra said, “Bree, I’m taking you somewhere special tonight.”
Aubrey figured they were just going to grab a late–night bite or hit up a night market. She never expected Sierra to drag her to a high–end male strip lub to watch guys give raunchy performances.
Sierra leaned in and told her:

Aubrey was definitely getting an eye–opener. It was quite the view.
Jeon lights flashed in a blur of colors as the heavy bass thumped through the floor. On stage, a group of shirtless men moved with a raw, predatory

Some of the suggestive moves the male models pulled with the female customers had Aubrey’s face flushing deep red.

The post hadn’t even been up for ten minutes when Aubrey’s phone started buzzing.
Her phone buzzed against her skin. She pulled it out, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw the caller ID. It was Damon. She looked at Sierra, otally blindsided. “He hasn’t messaged me in days. Why is he calling me now?
Mierra looked at Aubrey’s panicked face, then glanced down at the caller ID. It hit her instantly. “Crap!” she barked. “I posted that video to my Social ‘eed and forgot to hide it from Damon. Did he see it already?”
You posted ‘that on your Social Feed?” Aubrey asked, her voice rising in shock and embarrassment. “Have you no shame?”
