"Think over what I said," Eleanor told her. "I heard Everett's planning to invest in entertainment companies in the future. You two are bound to run into each other, whether you like it or not."
With that, Eleanor left the decision to Aurora.
Aurora couldn't make up her mind, so she called her best friend Courtney to talk it over.
Courtney hoped she'd take this opportunity to finally move past the emotional baggage.
"Do you still have nightmares? About Everett?" Courtney asked gently.
Aurora paused, suddenly feeling the urge to dodge the question. "I… actually dreamed about him the night before last. But it wasn't really a nightmare. I just remember the scene of us spending the night at that temple."
"Were you scared?"
"Uh… kind of." Aurora frowned. In the dream, she wasn't really scared. If anything, when he held her, she felt… sort of comforted. Almost enchanted.
Ugh. So pathetic. No way she was saying that out loud.
