Moore Than a Feeling

"Holly and Aiden broke up? Seriously? No way. Not those two." 

Dumped.

No, not only dumped.

Blindsided and dumped.

I thought that Aiden McManus was my forever, my soulmate,

That was until he told me he was still in love with his ex.

I didn't want to believe him. 
So, I convinced myself that our break-up was because of his upcoming deployment, 
and not because he didn't love me. 
Believing that, helped me get through those first months.

But after a while, I realized I just might be lying to myself.
And it was time to move on...

So, I moved on. Or tried to move on, anyway. 
But that didn't work out so well for me, either.
And it practically got me disowned from my family.

After that, I finally started to get my life back together,

I had everything back under control…

…Or so I thought.

Until I found out Aiden was back  

And now he's everywhere I turn,

Still pushing me away,

telling me he doesn't want me.

But every time he calls me Angel or reaches out to touch my cheek,

I know what he's not admitting to himself –

He still loves me.

And I'm going to prove it to him.
